This is not for the faint of heart. Building a shinobi village takes a great deal of time, as well as a good deal of both members and staff alike. Villages will take a lot of work to register and even more to be acceptable. Any wishing to take upon this challenge please look at the template within and more importantly read the rules.

One of the five great shinobi villages. This is one of the largest of the five, with a large mountain casting a great shadow over it. The mountain itself has had the faces of each Hokage to date carved in it, as if to watch over the village even after death.

One of the most mysterious and perhaps the most military oriented villages of the five. Iwagakure's history is written in blood from all the small wars it has waged over its history, constantly trying to broaden its borders and power.

Located in the island nation known as the Land of Water, Kirigakure no Sato is known for it's powerful shinobi force and impressive navy which has given it control of the seas for centuries.

Considered the most technologically advanced of all five of the great shinobi villages, Kumogakure's history is full of broken promises and shady deals, but its power is undeniable

Sunagakure is the yougest of the five great shinobi villages, but its people are strong willed. Their history is one long hardship of learning to live in such a harsh environment, but from these trying times they have come away with a great strength.

A rather secretive village. It often ends up as the battlefield for the wars between the major villages. It stays to itself, though it strangely accepts a great deal of missing-nin, though this once again to point to it being used as a battle field it already has aquired some of the other nation's shinobi. It does however guard it's city aggresively.

Nestled in the heart of the mountain ranges between Amegakure and Kusagakure no Sato, this village was originally founded as a holiday resort for the weary Shinobi. Offering majestic views and hospitality unrivalled, residents of this minor Shinobi village hold a unique outlook in life. Presently, Aka-sen Chiku has also developed into the come-to place for information gathering.

Two years of time has healed the village hidden in the grass. The village funding it's resurrection through their advanced medicines and medical treatments as well as the aid they received from their allies. The village is still a minor village, but it is well on it's way back to it's former strength.

Through the many years Yukigakure has suffered, not so much as Amegakure, but they have suffered none the less. With an unexplained drop in temperatures which were already dangerous for those who were not prepared the village has been unable to do much, but survive. With the breakthrough in technology they have finally been able to shield themselves from the weather and now try to rebuild their strength.
