Konoha Positions
_____________________________________________________
_____________________________________________________
ANBU
The ANBU, short for Ansatsu Senjutsu Tokushu Butai, take orders directly from the Kage, performing special high-level missions, such as assassinations, information gathering and torture. The ANBU usually work in teams formed to the requirements of the mission, ensuring maximum success. The shinobi in the ANBU are hand-picked by the Kage; chosen for their individual capabilities and special skills.
The identity of the ANBU needs to remain a secret from all sources, including inside and outside the village; only the Kage and the village elders know the member's identities.
Only approved shinobi may apply for a position in ANBU here; please note that from this point on, In-Character [IC] experience and events may be taken into account for the decision process.
Shugonin Jūnishi
Shugonin Jūnishi, known as the Twelve Guardian Ninja, are a group of twelve elite warriors who have left their village and pledged their lives to protect the Fire Daimyō. The members are identified by the "Fire" kanji (火) marked loincloths they wear.
Members of this group are hand-picked by a Daimyō for extraordinary service in times of crisis, or convenient demonstration with either the Daimyō or one of their aids witnessing the potential member's prowess. Typically, a member of the Twelve Guardian Ninja holds their position for no longer than one year, at which point they are permitted to return to their village as a veteran of the group. Extensions have been permitted under extenuating circumstances.
Those who become one of the Twelve Guardians are under the command of the Daimyō and remain away [typically] from the village while completing their service. However, due to the recent war, the Daimyō has reached an understanding with the Hokage that permits the Guardians to return to Konoha to assist where needed, when service to the Daimyō allows.
Only approved shinobi may apply for a position in Shugonin Jūnishi here; please note that from this point on, In-Character [IC] experience and events may be taken into account for the decision process.
Konoha Council
It is the duty of the Council (Go-Ikenban) of Konoha to help the Hokage govern the village and to make sure all decisions are made with the best interest of Konoha and its inhabitants in mind. The group consists of four individuals hand-picked by the Hokage for their experience, wisdom and ability to debate reasonably.
Although the Hokage always has the final say in the matter, the councilors are there to give their opinions and advice, thus making sure the decisions made are fair and take into account all possibilities and viewpoints. Those on the council are considered very honorable, and it could be said they hold a social position second only to the Hokage. As such, they are very trusted and go through rigorous tests to ensure their loyalty and suitability for serving Konoha.
Only approved Konoha shinobi may apply for a position on the Council here; please note that In-Character [IC] experience and events may be taken into account for the decision process.
If you have any questions regarding these groups, please PM Sonzai.
