¤¤¤ PROWESS ¤¤¤
Elemental Natures: Raidon has lightning and Water chakra natures. His Kekkei Genkai allows him to combine these to use Storm nature.
Skills: Basic skills- Raidon has skills in which he specialises in, but as a kage he is still at the level of an average jonin in those skills that he does not excel in, for example; he is still skilled by normal ninja standards when it comes to shuriken throwing
Chakra amount- Raidon has a large chakra pool, it's not necessarily jinchuriki level but it's higher than most.
"I wouldn't be a kage if I was ordinary"Ninjutsu- Raidon is a ninjutsu specialist. He knows the theory for every ninjutsu of his chakra styles out there and has practised some of the best to make up his own style. Despite having storm style jutsu, he only uses it sparingly against powerful opponents, he mostly uses his lightning and water natures in combat and is at kage level with them.
Taijutsu- Raidon is also very physically talented, as all past Raikage have been. He trains his physical body very hard, although because he focuses more on ninjutsu he is not as fast or strong as the 3rd or 4th Raikages, but he still possesses the physical potency of one worthy enough to call himself a kage.
Weaknesses: Genjutsu- He possesses no usable genjutsu. He can dispell genjutsu if he sees it coming like any other ninja, but he has no defense against high level genjutsu.
Chakra cost- Storm style has a large chakra cost, he can't use it too often and only uses it for single, powerful attacks, rather than constantly using it over a whole fight.
Merciful- At times, Raidon can be too soft, whenever he fights he always fights to incapacitate and capture, but never to kill. Although it's just fine for opponents that are weak next to him, someone else who is on par with a kage and is going all out will likely be too much for him.
Chakra nature weaknesses- His lightning style jutsu is weak to wind style and water does not balance out this weakness, so Wind style is effective against him. His water style jutsu is weak against earth style, but his lightning style beats earth style so this weakness is rendered moot. His storm style does not have a specific weakness, as it is not actually neither lightning nor water.
Equipment: Nothing

Personality: Many people do not think that Raidon is mature enough to be their village leader, the reasons why people think this can be seen in the way he acts; he is brash, cocky, jokes around too much and generally does not seem like the kind of person that would be elected. But those are the people who don't know better, he is actually an extremely dedicated and hardworking individual, he gets all his paper work done before he goes to sleep, even if that means he gets less than an hour of sleep. He is extremely motivated when it comes to anything that would benefit his village, even if that just includes sending other people on missions rather than leaving the town himself.
Strengths: Dedication to his village and it's people
Interests/Habits: Impressing girls, working out (to impress girls), training to improve his skills (and impress girls)
¤¤¤ ORIGIN ¤¤¤
Family Members: Father (former Raikage's right hand), Mother (Former Raikage's advisor), Brother (Hidden cloud jounin), sister (Hidden cloud Chunin)
Place of Origin: Hidden Cloud village
History: Ever since he was young, Raidon wanted to be the Raikage. Of course, every cloud village child wanted to be Raikage when they were younger, but usually when they grew up they forgot about it to pursue more realistic dreams, but Raidon didn't give up on this dream. Instead, he trained harder than anyone else even as a small child, even when he wasn't even joining the academy he still exercised and set goals for himself like "If I can't break through three bricks I won't have lunch today"
When Raidon entered the academy, he was the best student through his whole time there because he trained so hard, he was so ahead of the rest of the students that he ended up being tutored in skills meant for older students, he was even given training to discover his elemental nature by his third year, something usually not learnt until the genin rank. While his classmates were learning to perform the normal clone jutsu, which isn't even solid, Raidon was learning lightning clone jutsu.
Once he was a genin, he was allowed to do the chunin exam less than 6 months after graduating the academy and he passed the exam with flying colours. Before his 15th birthday, he passed the jonin exam and became the youngest Cloud villiage jonin ever. He soon became an indispensable member of the hidden cloud forces before he was 17. When he was 20, some missing nin attempted an assassination attempt upon the previous Raikage, who is now elderly. He just happened to be visiting when the assassins attacked and he deterred them all, capturing them without any excessive force.
This gained him a spot on the Raikage's personal guard, where he faithfully served until three years later, when the previous raikage retired and appointed Raidon as the new Raikage. Despite the fact that the public wanted someone with more experience as the Raikage, the other members of the Raikage's personal guard all stood down and didn't oppose him or even put up a fight. While many people think that he should be prepared more for the role until he can be the 8th Raikage, he still has the approval of the lords of the land and has a small following among the younger generation of Cloud village shinobi, which will be very advantageous in later years when these youngsters become senior shinobi.
