Kain

Personality
Kain is generally a calm and respectful individual who tends to keep to himself. There are times when he'll make an attempt to speak with another being in the area and, so far, he's engaged light hearted conversations. When it comes to people that outrank him, he will take on a more formal approach until he is permitted to speak casually with them.

As a Genin, Kain is contantly working to get better in the techniques he posesses and always strives to learn as much as he can to reach his maximum potential. He has yet to be pushed to the brink by another person, but in his frequent training sessions he brings himself to the point of near collapse. Kain isn't satisfied with a training session until he can feel his muscles burn from the stress and see the cuts and bruises created from countless attempts at bettering himself.

A negative aspect of his personality is that he's overly critical of himself and what he does. Even after a successful training session or advancement in ranking, he thinks about what he could have done. This lack of self-confidence is nothing but detrimental to his development due to an intense focus on what could have been instead of what he can do to change. Until he can find someone strong and wise enought to teach him better, he fears that his lack of real confidense will hold him back.

History
Kain was born to what could be considered an 'average ninja family'. His mother, a Chuunin, spent most of her time taking care of him while his father, a Jounin, completed missions in order to keep food on the table and bring money to his village. The young Kain had no real friends, opting to stay and help his mother around the house instead of 'play ninja' with other kids around Kumogakure. While most considered this uncharateristic for a child, there was nothing he enjoyed more than keeping his mother company since his father was absent through most of his life.
