14 Q&A No. 1 *Future spoilers warning*

Ok I am going to address a few things so please bare with me. I have read each comment and I wanted to share some opinions and give you little 'sneak peaks' into my plans

First off. Harem?

While it is true I wanted to make him a one woman man originally but I have opted to go with the smallest of harems meaning 3 woman. Three is my limit. No I won't make him hook up with Temari as that is his sister. No I won't be gender bending characters or making a sister for sasuke. I want to try and keep it close to canon as I can. Tsunade is out for harem members. Also no yaoi. I personally have nothing against BL but I don't want it in this novel. Though I may make a yaoi novel in the future. I will tell you he will be meeting Fu as for if they get together or not it's a secret~

Why not Tsunade?

She is too old. Now some may say that 'But isn't his soul old' or something like that and technically you are both right and wrong. When I made chapter two I spoke about how his soul is damaged. It is severely damaged. Let's say he lived to be 43 in his past life before he died. Well his memories only account for about 72 hours total of his last life. So out of 43 years he only has 72 hours of memory of his entire life. I would say the total amount of his soul not damaged is 7% the other 93% Is being filled by a childs soul. Basically that 7% was integrated into a blank newborn soul when he came to the Naruto world. So he is growing up like a child which explains his behaviors.

If his soul is damaged how can he remember so much about tech and medicine?

Muscle memory. Muscle memory is when you do something repeatably so long that it becomes almost instinct and reflex. He has a version called Soul Memory. In his last life he worked all the time to the point that all that got ingrained into that small amount. Though he wouldn't be able to tell you things like about cell phones and etc clearly it does come to him vaguely on how to make tech and fuse medicines.

Why is he mistreated and treated like a monster?

It is because he is an outsider. Villages deal with spies a lot so and are always on guard against other people even their ally nations. So because he was born in another village he isn't too well received. Why he is treated as a monster is due to the fact he never showed any expression change no matter what for two years. Due to this oddity they thought he was a monster. Especially since when he is covered in metal he looks a bit demonic.

Bijuu connection usless?

It has been pointed out that having a connection that allows him to use the One Tails chakra is kinda pointless since Shukaku is the weakest of the Bijuu. This can be true or false. I agree it isn't too helpful to him having acess to that chakra right now but you forget that Marix isn't a Jinchūriki so what if he one day gains his on Bijuu? He would have access to his bijuus chakra and the one tails. And I do plan for him to 'connect' with a bijuu much further in the story.

Abandonment for being retarded?

As I have stated in a previous chapter Marix was abandoned on the acount they thought he was retarded. Now let's make this clear it was the Elders of the village who wanted him gone. The reason being is they are old. They lived through the Second and/or First Wars. In that time it was chaos people died all the time. Now let's say you were born retarded during that time. It is more likely you get killed off or abandoned as a child than be left alone. Because in those times no one would be able to watch you all the time. You would be a threat not only to yourself but others. Why? Because while someone is protecting you they can't go all out and you can even be used as a hostage seeing as they care enough to keep you around though you are useless. And as we know most elders can't get with the times and still are focused on the rules and traditions of the old ages. The elders wanted to kill him as he had absolutely no value. It is only due to his fathers urging that they used him as a 'politic hostage' instead. The shinobi world is a cruel and dark place, at least this is how I see it.

Will he be OP?

To an extent yes but also no. He can be op as his bloodline allows him to fuse nature chakras easily meaning he can use almost any combination he wants. Even make his own like his Metal release is a fusion of Earth Release and Earth Release. Something that should be impossible (Again metal release is inspired by Toph) He could use Boil and scorch and magnet and lava. It all depends. He may even be able to use Amaterasu by a fusion of Fire and Yin. He has the potential to be an OP character but I am making him a Support type ninja instead. Why? Because I read a comment saying "A Medical Nin with invincible defense would be a nightmare to enemies" and that inspired me because I really liked the idea of him on the battle field healing people while others are trying to kill him and he just brushes it off like no big thing. But he will be a support to because he will be using seals and customized weapons to support the others.

Will he have his own sword?

Yes! I am going to have him make his own unique blade after studying the Executioners Blade use by Zabuza.

Meeting the Sand Siblings?

That is a definite but it is much further down the line. Right now I am focusing on his childhood up to the point of the academy, then I am during the academy years, all the way to the Mist Village arc then the chunin exams. I want to have this Novel go awhile not just end in like 50 chapters so if you are waiting for the Sand Siblings it may be awhile sorry.

Seishigan.

The Seishigan will have 3 levels and maybe a fourth level. First level is 4 star which allows him to see Strings of Life. Second Level is 6 stars which will allow him to see Life in all things and he can interact and talk to spirits. Third level allows him to summon spirits from the Spirit/Nether World. They can't fight for him but he can temporarily integrate with them letting them have temporary possession of his body. The Fourth level (If I decide to do it) which will be like the evolution of Mangekyou to Rinnegan will allow him to use what I call Gate of Reincarnation as for it's powers well I am debating over it. What I can say is one of the gates powers is giving life to the dead. But I am debating if I can also give life to objects such as let's say a golem.

Someone asked me for advice on their novel. So I will tell you my process. First off I don't plan ahead too well. I take small goals. Like in my chapter Decisions I had three goals. One I wanted people to know why Marix was in Konoha. Two I wanted the Hokage to adopt him. Three Danzo is an a**hole. Everything else wasn't planned it just got put down. As I write it all just comes to me and my fingers move by themselves. I make sure to put my goals in step by step and that is it. I think maybe one or two chapters ahead but I don't think of everything I just put fourth two or three goals. In Jan Ist my goals were. One Introduce new god. Two Fate change. That was it. Now I do get ideas for later as I already have a goal of when he meets gaara and I have a goal for the akatsuki when they capture gaara. But I do not have a goal for after that. I am literally just making it up as I go. Now I read your novels first chapter and if I had to say the goals I would have listed in that chapter is. One The Mc is strong. Two MC is smart and brave. Three MC experiences a great loss. See just goals with filler. That is my entire process well I also listen to music. It can change my mood and keep me focused on what I am writing by blocking out everything else. Anyway I look forward to seeing more of your novel Auren02 (Look you got a shout out!) I don't know if this helps you are not though. I am just a beginner and this is my process so far.

Anyway I help this let's people see my fanfics world the way I interpret it and may answer some questions for you. I see the ninja world as dark and cruel so that explains some of my decisions you will see now and in the future. As for why I din't explain who will be in the small harem it is because I want it to be a secret but I will tell you one harem member who I am definitely having her name begins with T. Anyway thanks for reading so far! I really do appreciate all the feedback! Oh one last thing! If anyone wants to help me with a cover I would greatly appreciate it. I'm not too good at art.
