appearance

Kazama is a rather tall man, towering over most at a height of six and a half feet. He possesses a strong, athletic physique and a head of long, dark hair. His face is angular and bony, with wrinkles and creases acquired from age. He lacks any eyebrows, but possesses green eyes, a strong, pointed nose and full lips. From his upper lip grows a dark mustache which travels back and links up with his sideburns. Despite this, his jaw is clean-shaven, possessing not even a trace of a beard.

When on the job he typically wears the standard Shinobi gear, with a black headband around his forehead, a Sunagakure flak jacket, a black top with black trousers and black zori sandals. On his right hip rests a pouch where he carries his extra items, including weapons such as Kunai and Shuriken. When not on duty, however, he prefers to wear a casual green yukata with a red sash and wooden geta.

personality

Kazama, to many, is a stern, serious man. He takes his job as a Shinobi seriously and especially as a teacher, he tends to demand respect from his students. He often pushes his student to work hard to accomplish tasks. Despite this, he is not a particularly patient man, and rarely tolerates foolishness - more often than not, he can be seen arguing with his own students. Needless to say, he can be a somewhat grouchy old man.

Kazama is also not one to divulge his own personal life to others, or readily admit when he is having problems. He is very stubborn in this regard and is rarely willing to let people know when he needs help, believing that he should be able to take care of all of his problems on his own. He can be seen as a very prideful man as a result. Despite having no small amount of authority himself, Kazama is also distrusting of authority - particularly of the Kazekage. Having grown up under a Kazekage who he views as weak, he doubts that the Kazekage is capable of able to look after the interests of the village.

Despite these flaws, Kazama is a loyal, hardworking man who is motivated mainly by his empathy for the Shinobi of Sunagakure. He has seen many people give their lives for a Kazekage who acted as a lap dog for Konoha, and strongly desires to see Sunagakure attain its former glory as a strong nation. He can also be kind, sometimes showing a softer side towards his students and genuinely desiring to see them succeed.

In addition, Kazama can show a more humorous side to himself, often poking fun at others through sarcasm, although he is not against cracking jokes at his own expense.

biography

Kazama was born shortly after the Great Shinobi War, when Sunagakure was left in a weakened, poor state. Kazama's parents, being no more than simple traders, found themselves struggling to put food on the table in such a worn-down economy. With a new mouth to feed around the house as well, the family was struggling to make ends meet. When Kazama was still young, it was decided between his parents that continuing to live as merchants simply wasn't possible. With a call for more Shinobi following the war, Kazama's parents discussed the matter and eventually agreed to enlist as Shinobi, even though they were both already adults.

Because his parents were often put on missions out of the country, Kazama's parents more often than not left him in the care of a family friend, usually only getting to see him for a few weeks at a time before leaving again for several weeks. Despite the fact the he would often be distanced from his parents, Kazama still desired to follow in their footsteps and become a Shinobi. At the age of eight he enrolled in the local Shinobi Academy and studied hard. In the academy he performed well and by the age of twelve he was eventually granted the rank of Genin and sorted onto a team.

After being sorted onto a team, Kazama began to notice the world around him more - particularly the village. Even years after the war the Kazekage was taking jobs on behalf of Konoha in exchange for resources. The people disliked the Kazekage's methods, feeling that they had now essentially become Konoha's lapdogs - especially considering how they had once been enemies. Despite their criticisms, Kazama found himself sympathizing with the Kazekage, rationalizing that it must be necessary to work for Konoha if the Kazekage believed it to be so. The fact his parents were dependent on missions to make a living swayed him more so.

At the age of eightteen Kazama and his teammates participated in a Chuunin Exam, fighting tooth and nail against other teams from other countries. Despite how rough and dangerous the exam had been, Kazama and his teammates were nevertheless able to attain the rank of Chuunin. It was at this time that Kazama's desire to be a Shinobi grew from more than simply desiring to be like his parents or as a means of making a living - he desired to make his Village strong again, and so was willing to lend a hand to the Kazekage if it meant Sunagakure's economy could stabilize.

Now able to join his parents on missions, Kazama frequently found himself allying with them as he went on numerous missions beyond Sunagakure's borders. Whether it was bodyguard work, espionage or sabotage, Kazama frequently found himself putting himself in danger, much like back when he had participated in the Chuunin Exam. He never lost his drive to do what he could to improve Sunagakure's standing, but being out in the field often made him question if any progress was being made, or if any progress was happening fast enough. He refused to believe that any efforts on the part of the Shinobi for the sake of strengthening Sunagakure were in vain, but the many dangerous missions he participated in began to make him weary.

As Kazama began to enter his late twenties, he already began to feel somewhat exhausted. The missions Sunagakure did on behalf of Konoha were taxing, and although the village was improving, it felt as though the village hadn't become strong so much as it had become dependent upon Konoha's wealth. Kazama felt strong doubts about the Kazekage's plans, but despite this he refrained from voicing his doubts. By the time Kazama hit thirty, he ended up obtaining the rank of Jounin for his years of service.

Not long after Kazama became a Jounin, things began to go downhill. On a mission on behalf of Konoha, Kazama's group - consisting of himself and his parents - were ambushed by rogue Shinobi. During the skirmish many of Kazama's group were killed, including his own parents. Just barely managing to escape, Kazama ended up returning to Sunagakure a changed man. In his mind, the sacrifices the Shinobi of Sunagakure were making on behalf of another country were no longer justified by the Kazekage's plans. Becoming a harsh critic of the Kazekage, Kazama began to only take on missions that directly benefitted the village itself while vying for the seat of Kazekage himself.

Despite this, when the Kazekage finally passed away, Kazama was overlooked for the position of Kazekage in favour of a younger candidate. Despite his skepticism of the young woman, Kazama decided to wait before judging her, keeping a close eye on how she continued on from where the last Kazekage had left. Deciding to leave active service on the front lines however, Kazama decided to stay in the village as a Jounin Sensei, intending on teaching a younger generation.
