A soft smile rested upon the youthful yet androgynous face of the twelve year old Kisho Gosenkugi as he walked onto the battlegrounds where most Cloud-Nin took their Genin exams. Wearing a simple pink Kimono with a purple sash around the waist, the boy's arms would rest behind his back, hands loosely clenched together while dark brown eyes gazed around, searching for his examiner for today. As he waited, a soft sigh would pass through those lips, one of his hands moving up to brush locks of black hair, tipped with hot pink, from his face as he stood in wait.
"...Geez. Sure is hot today..." The boy murmured softly, licking over his pale pink lips as he glanced around curiously. Most had never seen the boy around these parts. If they had, they might have mistaken him for a girl or simply remained ignorant to his existance-He did dress up as other people, afterall. Despite this oddness, today there seemed to be something especially odd, but what...?

A tall male jounin was waiting for Kisho as he entered the examination grounds, his eyes originally closed as he leaned against a tall oak. He was around 6'2'', with short, dark brown hair. He wore simple attire, black pants, a white shirt, with a black vest worn over top, his forehead protector tied around his head. "Kisho Gosenkugi." He said without opening his eyes as Kisho neared him. "Welcome to the location of your genin examination. The regular examiner, Tanaka Okayama, is away on a mission, so I, Taro Ishikawa will be taking her place." Finally opening his eyes, he focused on Kisho and uncrossed his arms from his chest.
"It is up to me whether you pass or fail this exam. I will be testing your skills, tactics, and effective usage of your various jutsus. Come at me with everything you've got, with the intent to kill, otherwise you'll never prevail. With that said, lets get things underway. You may now begin."

A soft giggle passed through Kisho's lips, seemingly amused by the man who he had seen. He hadn't expected him to see that he was leaned up against a tree like he was but that was no matter. Nodding slightly at the instructions, the little boy would offer him a casual peace sign. "Hai." He said softly before his figure suddenly flickered out of sight, the shadow clone disrupted by a pair of Shuriken cutting through it at high speed, aimed toward the Examiner's knees.
Meanwhile, about twenty yards behind the clone, the actual Kisho chuckled softly-hidden from view via the cloak of invisibility jutsu. Rather than face the man head on and offer him a chance to see what he was planning, Kisho had sent a clone instead while he had remained in that place for some time, opting to remain hidden. Kisho might have looked like a girl but he wasn't an idiot. Tactics were something he considered him rather good at. After the Shuriken were thrown, the Androgynous nin would roll ever so slowly off to the side, moving slowly to remain hidden while those eyes were focused upon the ninja he faced, waiting for his next move.

Taro's eyes widened a bit as he leapt over the shuriken and grabbed onto the tree limb above him, swinging up onto the branch and surveying the surrounding area. Using the trajectory of the shuriken as his guide, he spotted Kisho rather easily despite his jutsu and smiled to himself. 'This kid is something else.. to think a genin would pull a move like that. He was thinking 3 moves ahead before the exam had even started.'
Moving through the trees, Taro threw a kunai towards Kisho, aiming a few inches ahead of where he was rolling to.

His eyes had been focused upon the Examiner the entire time, so his leap was nothing he hadn't expected nor was his throw of the Kunai. As soon as his arm snapped out, his movement ceased-Letting the Kunai impact the ground before suddenly he was exposed-The cloak of invisibility lifted, revealing Kisho's figure. Picking up the Kunai, the boy would begin to run in a wide arc around toward the Examiner before splitting off into two, both of them weaving in and out while dashing toward the tree the man waited in before leaping at him, ready to attack.
Meanwhile, a lone bird flew overhead, remaining fairly low to the ground as it moved toward the trees in which the Ninja had taken hold, seemingly watching the group as they battled.

Taro watched as the two Kisho's ran towards him from opposite sides. He noted the grass underneath their feet was not moving or bending as they ran through it, and he held up a single hand at chest level as the two clones moved towards him. As they leapt to attack, he threw a single needle towards each clone, needles that had seemingly come from nowhere. Holding his fingers in a cross in front of him, two additional Taro's formed and the two leapt in separate directions, spreading out through the woods, while one stayed in place, standing nonchalantly on the tree branch.

His clones defeated, Kisho would burst out of his bird form about twenty feet in the air on the left of the single remaining figure. Dropping quickly, a single hand would shoot forward toward the clone, sending a single needle from above toward the space between it's neck and shoulder-A fatal attack had it been the real one. He doubted this though but it was worth a shot. Falling further, his other hand would shoot out as he neared the top of one of the trees, sending a Kunai with a three foot length of wire attached to the end out at the wood, stabbing into it. Gripping the end tightly, the tension on the wire would increase and turn into something of a swing, bringing him back toward that tree safely. Upon touching the tree, that Cloak of invisibility would be activated again with a quick seal before he scurried upward, moving to the highest vantage point. From above, the only way the man could come at him was from below. With his eyes focused on the ground below, he would collect that kunai while grabbing a branch off of the tree, dropping it down into the wooded area in attempt to draw out a reaction.

Taro's shadow clone spun on the branch, deflecting the the needles with a kunai that formed in his clenched hand and looking to where Kisho had landed, noting the clever maneuver. However, the last move had seemed a bit sluggish, and he could tell the young boy was running low on chakra, and decided to end the fight. With a grin on his face, the clone disappeared in a puff of smoke. "You can come out now." the real Taro said, standing sideways on the tree trunk right above where Kisho was hiding. "The examination is over."
A few moments later, when the two of them were back on solid ground, Taro spoke again. "I must say, this was quite the exam. Your tactics and use of jutsus against me was top notch, well above that of an ordinary academy student. Allow me to be the first to welcome you into the ranks of Kumogakure's genin. You pass." He reached into his vest and pulled out a new forehead protector and handed it over to Kisho. "Unfortunately, you will be unable to meet with your squad for a few days, as they are out of the country on a mission. You will be notified when they return." His speech finished, Taro nodded to Kisho. "I must tend to other matters now, but I trust you will grow to do well in the village. Farewell, I'm sure we'll see each other again." He said before disappearing in a puff of smoke.

While I completely agree that you passed I must say I disagree with the idea that you can henge into a bird. There is nothing in the manga to support that they can henge into something like a bird and in fact I can point out an instance where instead of henging into a bird Ino used mind control on a bird for scouting purposes.
Just wanted to comment as this has more far reaching effects on the game than just your exam.

Indeed, he was feeling a bit sluggish. His chakara, while decent, was not remotely where he had wanted it to be before coming into this exam. He was confident he would manage though and, sure enough, he had. Sighing softly as he released that Jutsu, the young boy would push up onto his feet, stretching out a bit before shaking his head. "Mmm, need to work on that..." Nodding softly to himself, those eyes would shift up toward Taro, taking note of his use of athe Spider Crawl Jutsu before he began to climb down the tree.
Once on the ground and facing the the instructor, he'd nod slightly as the older man praised him. He had spent many an hour studying and perfecting his strategies. What if he had trained harder? A soft smile tugged at his lips at the thought as he reached out, taking the forehead protector from him. Glancing down at it, his free hand would drag his fingertips over the engraved metal before he nodded again. "Thank you. Thank you very much." He murmured softly in his odd little voice before offering the man a slow, steady bow just as the man disappeared in a poof of smoke. The first step of his training had been completed. Now, on to the ranks of Chuunin.

It was noted that when Naruto changed into a dog, he had the same physicality and abilities of one, so why couldn't the same physics be placed onto another animal? He agreed. Perhaps Sol should comment on this as well.

Perhaps Sol should comment on this as well. I'm aware of the henge into a dog but the thing there is that dogs are restricted in the same sort of way humans are. You don't gain extra abilities really from doing a henge into a dog. Into a bird changes much.

Adknowledged. Like I said, there are alot of physical changes in terms of size and weight which I don't care to go into at six thirty in the morning. Let the others deal with it for now. I need sleep.

Hmmm, Takuya does bring up a valid point. I wasn't completly sure of the restrictions on the Transformation, since it had been used in the past to transform into animals.
But I think from now on, the official ruling will be that while you can transform into just about anything, you do not gain their abilities. If you were to transform into a bird, you could hop around as a bird would, but you can't fly.
Also, I'll let it slide this time, but remember from now on, Kisho. You automatically lose 5% of your maximum chakra per round due to exhaustion.
