CSC - Maned Wolves
Okay, you guys should know the deal, this thread is for anyone who wants to apply to Sign the Maned Wolf CSC. I'm hoping for a nice balance between new users who would benefit from being part of a CSC, and older members who have experience with other Contracts and can help develop Summons and Jutsu for the Contract. Of course I hope everyone who applies will be just as willing to help improve the Contract, regardless of their time or experience on NB.
Here is the Contract.
Summoning Animal: Maned Wolf
Scroll Owner: x iiiMPerFeCT
Other Users who have signed contract: NA
Summoning Boss if existing: N/A
Other Summoning Animals tied to contract: N/A
General Description of the Animal in Real Life:
Background and General Information in the RP:
Currently there are no Approved Summons or Ninjutsu for the Contract. Yet.
The first batch of Summon's submitted can be found here. [
Okay, so, like all the other CSC Application Threads, you'll have to fill out a pointless template, to keep things simple and clean (as the way that you're makin' me feel tonight, it's hard to let it go... Sorry, been playing way too much Kingdom Hearts 2.5 lately.) Anyway, the template is below. I assume you all know why these questions are necessary, but in case you don't, I'll explain (or try to explain) in the spoiler.
Applications will remain open for at least the next week or so, after that, it depends on how many people have applied. Once I've made a decision, I will VM the applicants, and we can get started working like a sweat shop. Nah, I'm kidding. I'm much worse than that. Good luck, and may your Applications be as long as one of my wallies. ;D

General Description of the Animal in Real Life:
Despite it's name the Maned Wolf is not directly related to any other Canid, proof of this is that it has it's own Genus, Chrysocyon Brachyurus which means "Golden Dog". It is the largest known species of canine in South America which can reach up to 4ft tall on all fours and generally weighs between 50-75 pounds.
Physically the Maned Wolf looks like a large, long legged fox with it's fur's main colors being red or orange, while it has black and white features. It has a long, pointed muzzle and large, erect ears as well as a full set of sharp fangs and claws. The Maned Wolf gets it's name from its distinctive long, shaggy mane on it's back, which it has a tendency to raise when it feels threatened or if it is trying to raise it's profile to appear more intimidating. The Maned Wolf is also known for it's signature odor which has granted it the unfavorable nickname "Skunk Wolf". Another nickname for the species, due to it's slim, long legs and fox-like appearance, is "A Fox on Stilts". The Maned Wolf also has a unique vocalization known as a "Roar-Bark", but it's rarely heard due to Maned Wolves being very shy by nature.
The Maned Wolf's main habitats are flat grasslands or light forests in South America where they have evolved with their long legs to look over tall grass for their prey. Unlike other Canids they never hunt in a pack, preferring to hunt solo. They share vast and expansive territories with their partners, whom they rarely hunt or live with. They are omnivorous, and their favorite food is the Wolf Apple, which is ironically named for the animals love of it.

Background and General Information in the RP:
Deep in the South West of the Land of Fire, bordering with the Land of Wind, is a massive Forest Region, locally known as "Darkroot". This name comes from the Forests seemingly endless murky and humid swamps, and foul smell from the endlessly rotting plant matter, making it completely uninhabitable by humans. But those brave, or stupid, enough to brave into the further reaches of Darkroot will find a vibrant paradise, and the Ancestral Home of the Maned Wolf Summoning Animals. Deep within the swamp-like forest lies the vibrant fields of the Darkroot Basin, and even deeper within lies the secrets of the Maned Wolves in the Darkroot Garden, protected by the strongest warriors amongst the Summoning Contract.
The general habits of these Summoning Animals are as best described as "Lone Wolves" who hunt on their own. While not a lot is known about these animals as individuals, they have their own society with it's own rules and rituals, just like any other society, and one of the most common rituals performed by the Summoning Contracts Animals involves them leaving the safety of Darkroot. They are not allowed to return until they either proove themselves worthy in battle, or to bring back knowledge the pack would benefit from and other such feats. This ritual is only performed by animals that wish to be associated with the actual Contract though, so it is rarely seen by those not associated with the Summoning Contract. Most animals are content to live in peace within the safety provided by the Forest, but those who undertake this Ritual, and return, are held in high regard by the others in the pack, and are allowed to be called upon by their human friends in battle, or general times of need. This ritual not only provides a way for the animals of the Contract to test themselves, it easily allows diversity amongst the ranks of the Maned Wolf Summoning Contract, as every Wolf will go to different lands from another, or experience different things in those lands.
The Maned Wolves of Darkroot are classified by their general power or skill in combat and size or appearance. While they tend to have their own unique abilities and capabilities, as Canids they naturally have a great sense of smell and hearing for detecting prey or enemies, while in battle Maned Wolves can rely on their sharp fangs and claws. They also possess great agility due to their extended leg length, but this also makes their legs a weak point. Their most useful, and definitely noticeable, ability is the smell they naturally produce. The odor Maned Wolves produce is very powerful, rendering Olfactory Sensory Types (Sensors who rely on their sense of smell) like the Inuzuka, Ninja Hounds and other Canine Summons, useless. This is because the Maned Wolves scent overpowers all other smells in the general area, making any kind detection by smell impossible. The Maned Wolves naturally are used to their own smells, and the Signers will be accustomed to the smell during their training with the Summons through the natural process of Sensory Adaption. The overwhelming scent is only present as long as the Summons are, and fade when the Summoning Jutsu ends.
Those who sign the Maned Wolf Summoning Contract must receive either a tattoo or a scroll, through which they Summon the animals from the contract, like almost all other Summoning Contracts. Either one of these will be provided during training, and an image of each are provided in the spoiler below.

PHP:
[B]Training Stats (Including KG/ HA):[/B]
[B]Link to Bio('s):[/B]
[B]Current or Previous Summoning Contracts (If Any):[/B]
[B]Suggestions or Ideas for the Contract (Optional):[/B]
[B]Why do you want to sign this Contract:[/B]I want to know your training stats, specifically special fields like KG/ HA, as having them allows you a different point of view in many areas, and a fresh perspective can lead to unique and interesting Summons. For example, a Smoke user could greatly increase their battle potential if they used the 3rd Submission (Durian) in conjunction with their Smoke Ninjutsu, while a Nara Clan user could also use the cover provided by that same cover to set up their Shadow Jutsu, and if I remember correctly, there even is a Nara Clan Jutsu that uses Smoke with Shadows to crush the target and create a large smoke explosion from the compression. Those are just basic examples, but you can see how that one Summon can be used by two totally bio's in different ways. Having KG/ HA and special bio's, either now or in the past, provides a different perspective on a single idea, and I hope to apply those changes in perspective to make the best Summons and Summoning Ninjutsu possible.
You don't have to link your Bio's, but I would like to see what kind of RPer you are. Reading through bio's can help in that, let's me see exactly who is applying to sign the Contract. There really isn't much else behind asking this, I just want to do my nosy.
I'm asking for your Current and Previous Contracts for 2 very specific reasons. The first is, if you tend to apply to and/ or sign Summoning Contracts, stick with them for a bit, then get bored and leave, then it would be a waste to teach you this Contract. Not only would I be taking the time to train you (and obviously you'd be doing the same), you could end up being taught CJ for the Contract, which unlike the Summons, cannot be retaught, and therefor could potentially go to waste. I really want to have a group of solid, reliable members who I can trust to make this CSC the best it can be. A "Pack" if you want to get ironic or snarky. xD The second reason is because I want to be fair and pick members who've never had a Contract before, but also because if you have been a part of other Contracts, you could have valuable insight on how Summons and Ninjutsu work for Contracts. With that in mind, don't let it deter you. If you love the animal or the potential the Contract holds, all you have to do is show me that. Make me believe you will stay with the Contract, and you have a good chance of doing so.
Suggestions and ideas are also optional because, let's face it, if you have really good ideas that you think would make epic Summons or CSC CJ, you wouldn't want to tell me them in case I take them, but not allow you to sign the Contract, would you? ;D I'm just playing, but it is a legitimate reason for not wanting to share, and I will not let that affect the overall selections. You don't get extra points for sharing any ideas you may have, but you do get my respect, which can be redeemed for a cookie. :/
Finally, I ask why you want to sign it because, let's face it. I want to stump you. I want you to be confused as to what you should put. I want you to mess up your application at this point, because the normal answers don't apply here. This isn't some popular animal that you could have wanted since joining NB, if it was, either you or someone else would have made it and I'd be the one applying. Hell, I didn't know they even existed before a few months ago. I made this Contract in desperation the heat of the moment and it got Approved through sheer dumb luck. This is where I want you to convince me exactly why you want this Contract. Is it the potential it has? Is it the fact it's new? How about the fact the animals looks like the mutant offspring of a wolf, fox, hyena and deer, while they stink as bad as a skunk? Or is it simply because you really like Wolves, but they were already taken as a Contract? I'm not asking for a wallie (I really am though), I'm simply asking what made you want to click on this thread and decide to reply. In the end, that's why this thread exists.
