History: His extensive personal wiki.

Personality: At first blush, Sasuke is reserved, terse, and serious. He takes a no-nonsense approach to both long-term goals and daily tasks, usually completing them in ways he finds most efficient and — when it comes to his more important ambitions — with an unyielding focus. While this intensity is often propped up as an ideal for shinobi, Sasuke did not grow into it naturally. As a child he was far more expressive and optimistic, with a determined if shy personality. During this time he developed the dual inferiority and superiority complex that he’d carry into adulthood; his father’s high expectations and withholding nature caused him to develop a strong need to succeed alongside the assumption that he should. This was further complicated when at age eight his clansmen — including his parents — were slaughtered by his elder brother Itachi who left him with an order to acquire even more strength and avenge their loss against him.

Socially this event put Sasuke into a state of arrested development. He isolated himself from his peers because he believed that they were incapable of understanding his new burdens, became far more reserved and quiet, began to manifest new anger issues, and started living entirely on his own. As much as he hated this loneliness it allotted him more time to train and with fewer distractions, causing him to also focus less and less on his own happiness. This idea of duty and goals over self (even when those goals were potentially selfishly motivated) is one that sticks with him through to the end of the series itself.

Because Sasuke is such a loner he struggles with teamwork and is in fact only shown to succeed at it whenever it isn’t conflicting with his goals (as soon as he decides he’ll become stronger by abandoning Naruto and Sakura he does so, for example, along with abandoning his own Team Taka later as well in order to chase a target). When he is actually working in a team he naturally volunteers himself for a leadership position and adopts it with or without consent from his teammates. He’s uncompromising and stubborn with his decisions, a personality trait which is even more apparent after the time skip (from age thirteen at the end of Naruto to sixteen at the beginning of Naruto: Shippuuden) due to an extended period away from any of his positive bonds in Konoha. This also shows in his defiance to authority. Again, as with teamwork, should someone give him an order that falls in line with his own wants or ambitions, Sasuke is willing to go along with it. If not, his pride and lack of concern for others’ opinion of him leads to him being all too ready to refuse… sometimes violently (as in the case of him literally backstabbing multiple mentors and teammates).

Despite his prickly demeanor Sasuke does possess a genuine respect for life, avoiding killing when possible but not hesitating when he feels it’s unavoidable. Which leads to another major part of Sasuke’s personality: his extreme emotions.

While again he’s stoic on the outside, this is a carefully maintained exterior. Sasuke is extremely emotional and has a few triggers (mostly family-related) capable of setting off his considerable anger. When this happens throughout the series his personal morality takes a backseat to his violent tendencies. That said, this rage is canonically confirmed to be the result of an even stronger capability to love; the bonds Sasuke forms are very important to him and experiencing any loss of them affects him both powerfully and negatively.

The goals Sasuke values so highly are also regularly suggested to (or outright commanded of) him by others throughout the series. For example, Itachi tells him to avenge the clan, Obito manipulates him into hating Konoha, etc. By the end of the series however Sasuke gains the ability to think critically and begins questioning the world around him with greater sincerity. He has a genuine desire to improve the world so that people like him will no longer be created through tragedy, and he’s shown to regret hurting Naruto and Sakura and the others he’s betrayed. His guilt over these incidents is extremely weighty, adding to his already existent survivor’s guilt.

Sasuke’s most meaningful bonds are easily with Naruto (his best friend and rival) and with his older brother Itachi (the man who killed their family but was later revealed to be protecting Sasuke). While it’s undeniable that these relationships are complicated, he deeply loves both. Other important relationships are those with the other two members of Team 7, Sakura and Kakashi, and those he has with his new Team Taka in Shippuuden. He compares the latter to the former more than once and relies on them heavily for aid.

As for other more specific personality traits, Sasuke is a bit of a perfectionist thanks to that inferiority complex. He's also seen as being very neat and spartan when it comes to his living arrangements, viewing his personal surroundings as unimportant and decorations as unnecessary. His hobbies are walking and training. He's very reasonable and logical but has a very impressive temper if it can ever be sparked (as mentioned earlier). While he's quite traditional and well-bred thanks to his roots in an old and elitist clan, Sasuke tends to be very rude and disrespectful. Additionally, he's frequently called a genius in his village — and outside of it, when his reputation further grows — and is a very quick learner. Finally, he's the subject of constant romantic attention from females of all ages throughout the series, of which he's either ignorant or ambivalent.

Abilities/Powers/Weaknesses & Warping: Taijutsu: Sasuke is highly trained in hand-to-hand combat and is capable of superhuman strength in his strikes, punching through rock and knocking opponents flying back many meters. He is also incredibly fast, with speed that in short bursts is regularly confused with teleportation in the manga. - NOT WARPED

Genjutsu: Sasuke has the ability to cast powerful illusions that affect all five senses and cause a variety of effects. These include rendering the target unconscious, extracting information, and even controlling the target if they are weak-willed enough. - SUGGESTED WARP: For illusions specifically, either Sasuke is occasionally trapped in the illusion along with the victim for varying lengths of time (to be discussed with the other player) or the illusion occasionally is the opposite of what Sasuke intends for it to be. For extracting information (viewing another person’s memories), Sasuke will occasionally show the subject one of his own memories in return. Controlling another person will be unreliable at best and when possible will cause him to feel increasing amounts of pain in his own body corresponding to the movements he forces the other person to perform.

Basic ninjutsu/chakra control: Henge no jutsu/Transformation: allows the user to disguise him or herself as another person or object. - NOT WARPED
Bunshin no jutsu/Cloning: the user forms one or more clones of him or herself - SUGGESTED WARP: The longer these clones are active the more belligerent and uncontrollable they become, to the point where they’re aggressive enough to start fights with anyone in sight — including Sasuke himself.
Kawarimi no jutsu/Substitution: the user swaps their body with another object prior to an attack in order to escape it unharmed - NOT WARPED
Kuchiyose no jutsu/Summoning: the user draws blood from him or herself in order to summon a member of a species of animal with which they have a contract; Sasuke possesses a contract with both snakes and hawks - SUGGESTED WARP: While this would work, it would only summon animals from Deerington itself. These would have no loyalty to Sasuke and thus would be just as likely to attack him or leave on their own.

Shinobi also have the ability to manipulate their chakra flow to allow them several other boons. These include affixing themselves to objects, which allows them to climb up walls, hang from ceilings, or even walk on water, and using chakra in bursts of energy to enhance their jumps. - NOT WARPED

Elemental ninjutsu: Sasuke can use both lightning and fire element attacks, from as small as a spark and an ember up to manipulating a lightning storm and creating fire balls several times his size. - SUGGESTED WARP: Any fire attack used by him will cause a burn to appear somewhere on his body, while any lightning attack will cause an electrical burn. The severity of these will only increase with the amount of power he uses.

Doujutsu: Sasuke possesses the sharingan, a special set of eyes with a number of unique abilities. First, it has the ability to see chakra, or energy. This enables him to see if something is real or an illusion, to suss out items imbued with energy, or roughly gauge a person’s strength if they use magical, spiritual, or energy-based powers. - SUGGESTED WARP: This will cause headaches and increasing amounts of eye strain if used for longer than five minutes without a break. Furthermore, any time he uses it on another person they are also able to see Sasuke’s chakra.

Second, the sharingan offers enhanced visual perception. Not only is his eyesight significantly sharpened, but he can read slight muscle twitches in his opponent and respond at supernatural speed, almost as if predicting their movements. - NOT WARPED

Third, the sharingan has the ability to copy any physical movement that it sees. This can be used for something as mundane as copying a person’s handwriting style to something as serious as learning new fighting techniques at incredible speed. - NOT WARPED

Mangekyou Sharingan: This more advanced form of the sharingan that Sasuke possesses has two main abilities. First is Amaterasu, a black, endlessly burning flame which ignites anywhere that Sasuke chooses within his line of sight and cannot be put out using any normal means. He is also uniquely able control the flames, both manipulating their shape and extinguishing them at will. - SUGGESTED WARP: Using this ability would blind Sasuke for three days and its power would be wholly inconsistent; sometimes instead of behaving like incredibly hot fire the black flames will be cold to the touch, remaining burning on their target for up to a day without doing any damage but touching them will bring a great sense of unease.

The second ability is Susanoo, a large skeletal warrior comprised of chakra which Sasuke can summon in whole or in part. While he often uses this ability to encompass himself like a shield (by summoning just the ribcage), Susanoo is also armed with a sword and bow. - SUGGESTED WARP: Any part of Susanoo that is summoned will become steadily more brittle the longer it is active, until it can be broken with the slightest impact or physical action. The amount of time this takes is disconcertingly unreliable. In addition, any time he is formed with limbs they will twitch and flail as if he's in pain, and if his head is fully formed as well he will let out eerie and increasingly agitated groans, the cause of which will be impossible for Sasuke or others to determine.

Rinnegan: The final doujutsu (eye technique) Sasuke has access to is the rinnegan. The main set of abilities attributable to the rinnegan are known collectively as the Six Paths Technique and they are as follows:
- Deva Path: the user controls attractive and repulsive forces, allowing them to push someone or something away from them or draw them in close - NOT WARPED
- Asura Path: the user can mechanize his or her body - NERFED COMPLETELY, Sasuke shows no signs of knowing how to properly use this ability at his canon point and it has the potential to negatively impact the game setting
- Human Path: the user can extract another person's soul - NERFED COMPLETELY, Sasuke shows no signs of knowing how to properly use this ability at his canon point and it has the potential to negatively impact the game setting
- Animal Path: the user has the ability to summon a variety of specific individuals animals (panda, ox, multi-headed dog, drill-beaked bird, chameleon, centipede, crustacean, and rhino) - NERFED COMPLETELY, due to these animals only existing in his world, which would constitute inter dimensional overlap
- Preta Path: the user can absorb chakra from jutsu directed at them or from contact with other sources - SUGGESTED WARP: This ability is made wholly unreliable, with attempts to absorb energy sometimes sapping the same amount from Sasuke instead.
- Naraka Path: the user can summon the King of Hell, a being who then kills any victim who tells a lie to the user while it's active - NERFED COMPLETELY, due to this creature only existing in his world, which would constitute inter dimensional overlap

Furthermore, anyone who's mastered the rinnegan can create and use chakra receivers which allow them to transfer their energy to anyone -- or anything -- with one of the receivers embedded. - NOT WARPED

Finally, Sasuke's rinnegan also allows him to teleport by exchanging his place with that of another object, and to open portals to other dimensions. - NERFED COMPLETELY

Inventory: His chokuto, Kusanagi; a holster for kunai and shuriken, albeit empty; one small tan pouch, also empty; one black cloak
