-Appearance
| Age: 14 Gender: Male Height: 5' 4" Weight: 150 lbs Beeko has a much darker skin tone than other members of the Senju clan, a trait he inherited from his mother. He sports a large unkempt afro roughly two feet in diameter and the characteristic green eyes of the Senju. He is rarely seen without a purple toothpick in his mouth, though he is also known to chew on the stems of long grasses when given the opportunity. Beeko's most distinguishing feature is that his right arm and leg are comprised of a distinctive purple wood. The wood is knotted and gnarled, while the shoulder and bicep bear an outer shell reminiscent of the segmented pauldron with high collar of the classic Senju armor. Due to his partial wooden body, Beeko always carries the aroma of the Wakunochi tree, which is similar to scent of lilac but deeper and more earthy. Beeko wears a sage green loose fitting long-sleeved shirt, which he only buttons halfway up, and a pair of dark gray loose fitting pants. The right sleeve of his shirt has been crudely torn off at the shoulder and the right leg of his pants have been likewise removed mid-thigh to expose his wooden limbs. Over this, he wears an ankle-length earthy green robe with a thick dark gold hem. Like his underclothes, the right sleeve has been torn off at the shoulder, while the skirt has been split down the middle at the waist with the right side removed. The robe is secured at his waist with a thick black rope belt with ends that hang to his knees. He wears a slatted sandle on his left foot, while the wood of his right foot has been shaped to match it. Beeko's Hitai-ate is tied around his forehead, the ends hanging to his mid back. Both the thong of his sandle and the band of his Hitai-ate are the same color as the hem of his robe. |
-Personality
| Having spent the first several years of his life outside of Konoha, Beeko often has a difficult time understanding or respecting the social norms of the village. His bold, and often crass, behavior and language often lead people to think that Beeko has a problem with authority and a blatant disrespect for tradition. These assumptions are not always incorrect, but those who have mentored Beeko directly would say that he's trying his best to adapt. Much like the social traditions of the village, ninja skills have also not come naturally to Beeko. He has often felt like an outsider among his village and clan peers due to his appearance, upbringing, comparative age, and relative lack of skill. As with many 14 year olds, Beeko often feels insecure about these things which he masks with aloof sarcasm. Obviously this behavior does not solve his problems and in fact contributes to his feelings of social isolation. While his mannerisms are often seen as rude and unbecoming of a member of the Senju clan, he is a genuinely kind child who do almost anything to help those close to him. Beeko often finds the pressure of success to be quite stressful. His mother had very high aspirations for him, and confidence in him, from the moment of his birth. His biggest fear in life is letting his mother down. This stress only became worse as he was integrated into Konohagakure, welcomed into the Senju clan, and became began training to become a shinobi. |
HistoryShow
Yamabiko was born in the small village of Wakunochi no Sato, named for the great Wakunochi, a large tree of great cultural and spiritual significance to the villagers. He was born to a woman named Miko, the young spiritual leader of the village, and Senju, Kigen, a Konoha Chuunin stationed in the village on assignment. Unfortunately, Kigen was killed in the line of duty prior to Beeko's birth. Despite the short nature of their relationship, Miko was heartbroken by his death and has never taken another lover. To further add to Miko's tragedies, her son was born physically disabled: completely missing his right arm and leg. Miko noticed that her newborn child smelled much like the village's Wakunochi tree, and so named him Yamabiko after the tree spirits thought to live in the leaves of sacred tree.
When Beeko was about two years old, his mother noticed something odd about the child- small, hard bumps under the skin on his shoulder and hip where his arm and leg were missing. After consulting with the village healer, it seemed that this was not causing the child any pain and was determined to not be a matter of worry. However, the spots grew quickly in size and, after a few weeks, ruptured to expose what seemed to be wooden growths. And not just wood, but the same purple wood of the sacred Wakunochi tree. Miko, being both horrified by her child's condition, and perplexed by the spiritual significance of the sacred wood growing from her son's body, wrote to Konoha explaining that she had had a child with the late Kigen and requested their assistance.
It didn't take long for the village to send a pair of high-ranking members of the Senju clan. By the time they arrived, Beeko's wooden growths had grown rapidly into full-size, albeit rudimentary, limbs. He had taken to them quite well, already using them to crawl and stand. The village offered to relocate Miko and her son to Konoha, but due to Miko's status as the village's spiritual leader, she declined. But they were able to reach an agreement: Beeko would remain in his home village, under guidance from a member of the Senju clan to be stationed there, until he was old enough to enroll in the academy, at which point he would move to Konoha. While the prospect of being separated from her child saddened her deeply, she could neither abandon her duties, nor could she deny her son his future.
Miko spent the next several years teaching her son about the traditions and customs of their village, and when Yambiko turned 9 it was time for him to leave for Konoha and start the rest of his life. He would not be allowed to return home for many years, but would be able to write home.
Beeko's arrival to Konoha was a bittersweet event. He was excited to begin his training, but he found that many did not welcome him in the way that he had come to expect. Back home, he was special- the broken child who had somehow been mended by the great tree Wakunochi. But in Konoha, he was little more than a bastard child, an outsider. Some watched him with optimism as his partial elemental body did seem promising. But even these people soured on his as time passed and the child had difficulty adjusting to the culture of Konoha and the expectations of the academy. In fact, it took him two years longer than most to graduate from the academy. But he wouldn't give up- he refused to let his mother down.

| Arimaki •Strength: 10 •Speed: 10 Being Beeko's first golem design, Arimaki is quite rudimentary. It is roughly beetle shaped, comprised of a main body with six legs. The main body is little more than a flat board, 4 feet long and 4 inches thick, shaped like an oval with the back tapered to a point. The outside edge of the main body is sword sharp all the way around. The legs are thin and spindly and can arch in a way that lowers the main body closer to the ground while still allowing it walk normally and the feet end in sharp points. Arimaki is 2 feet tall at its tallest functional height. Pincers with sharp points extend 6 inches from the front of the body that can be used for picking up items or biting opponents. Beeko likes to ride it around like a skateboard. |
| Megumi no Wakunochi [Tree God's Blessing] Beeko's unique Kekkei Genkai, thought by some to be the result of a blending of his father's Senju genetics and his mother's druidic spiritualism. The most readily apparent feature of Beeko's Kekkei Genkai is his partial Mokuton body, his right arm and leg being comprised of a distinctive purple wood. The wooden limbs themselves offer benefit outside of being useful for Mokuton techniques. Any wood created by Beeko's Mokuton techniques will also be comprised of the same purple wood. Functionally speaking, the most important aspect of this Kekkei Genkai is Beeko's Kodamaton [Tree Spirit Release] which allows him to create and control wooden puppet-like golems. Unlike traditional puppets, Beeko's golems are not typically summoned or carried on his person. Instead, Beeko can create seeds that grow rapidly into one of his golems. This ability also grants Beeko channeling for Kodamaton jutsu. |

Kodamaton [Tree Spirit Release]
A Mokuton [Wood Release] extension granted to Beeko by his Kekkei Genkai that allows him to create and control puppet-like wooden golems. Given the nature of the way these golems are produced, they are comprised entirely of wood and can contain no parts comprised of other materials. Beeko can only have a single instance of a specific golem on the field at any given time (unless he has multiple copies registered). Beeko's range of control in meters is equal to Control • 3. If a golem is destroyed in combat, he can use seeds to create a new copy following a cooldown based on the stat totel of the golem.

Mokuton [Wood Release]
The Senju clan is famous for their powerful Kekkei Genkai which grants them access to a unqiue elemental release that allows them to create and manipulate wood. Even after their jutsu is done, these trees continue to live and grow aided by the high density of chakra in them. This gives Mokuton the growth effect, which uses the residual chakra in mokuton jutsu to rapidly speed up the natural growth process for a limited time after creation, causing the jutsu to gain +2 strength per post for an amount of posts after creation depending on the user’s [Control] used in the jutsu.
