⚜Appearance⚜
Long brown hair bordering on honey colored tumbles in wide spirals down her chest. These wide curls appear just messy enough to look good, but not perfect. A thick fringe covers her forehead, partially obscuring her eyes and fully hiding her eyebrows. A thick braid with no clear starting point wraps her forehead over her bangs, and ends somewhere within her hair. Her hair style is a point of pride, her healthy locks are well tending and always in an attractive style, very rarely will she ever tie her hair back. Small imperfections in her curls add individuality, something all members of her blood line desire.
Her thin brows are unseen beneath her hair but her honey colored eyes and their thick lashes shine brightly from her pale skin. It has often been remarked just how expressive her eyes are, showing every inkling of emotion within her. A small nose and thin lips are of little important to her heart shaped face. Her small ears, pierced multiple times, are also hidden beneath her hair. An elegant neck is encircled by a chain made of iron. The pendant upon the thick links is, at first appearance, a simple square with a circle in the center. Closer inspection or a discerning eye would see that it was in truth an abstract representation of a camera.
A black shirt with a large swoop neck covers her torso and obscures her undergarments. The shirt has three quarter sleeves that hug tightly to her body. The entire shirt fits rather like a second skin. Upon her collar bones thin gray sleeves show that she wears a tank top beneath the shirt. A white shawl is wrapped artfully about her shoulders. It hides the severe lack of a chest the young woman bears. Her shawl has a scalloped edge. Fabric bows and roses are placed at intervals along the cloth. A strand of pearls forms dips along the top of her shawl.
Hanging from her neck is an old fashioned film camera. She never leaves home without the device. Tied at the edge of her pale camera strap is a blue cloth. A splash of color in her otherwise monochromatic color scheme. Around the bottom of her shirt is a thick black belt made of leather. An ornate silver buckle clasps the belt and an anchor made of silver hangs from her right hip, connected to the belt. A skirt of white tulle protrudes from the hem of her shirt. The many layered skirt manages to be concealing without being too poofy.
Gray stockings cover her slender legs and though hidden beneath the tulle, the stockings end, being only thigh high. The tops of her feet are visible beneath her white flats since the stockings are open in the foot as well. Despite the fact that her clothing is lacking in color it is an outfit that shows her individuality, something that she is always seeking to change due to her faceless blood. Her fingernails are kept long and square though rarely painted. Make up never graces her features either. She prefers natural changes to the mask of make up.
⚜Personality⚜
I've always had identity issues due to my blood line but by the time my parents were killed I was starting to get an idea of who I was. Unfortunately I replaced them with anxiety troubles. I'm not super prone to panic attacks but they can happen. If I'm forced to do something I know is wrong, like hurt an innocent person, I'll have an attack. They're terrible. I can't breathe, my chest goes tight, all I can do is shake and cry silently. It's pretty terrible but there's no way I can stop them. It's not that I can't fight, because I can, but the reason must be just.
All I've ever really wanted was to pay back Kumogakure. They usually do what is right. They certainly did right by me. I believe becoming a Jonin would be a great way to pay them back. If it isn't obvious I pay back what I owe. Leaving debts unpaid is dangerous and you can be asked to repay them in dangerous ways. It's not that I don't trust people, I do mostly, but people can be selfish and cruel depending on their motivation. I wish I could say everyone was good deep down, but I know it is not true.
The ninja of Sunagakure who killed my parents had no reason to do so. They came into our house and destroyed my parents and my home. It was a merciless act. While I have my problems doing that which is wrong a seed of vengeance stirs within me. I distrust those who ally with Suna, and I am constantly wondering if they are the ones who killed my family. Killers do deserve to die. I hate to think anyone should have to die a death of violence but those who cause misery to others do not deserve to be left to cause more suffering.
On the whole I'm a pretty artistic person. I use the art of Li and photography to express my identity in my otherwise faceless blood. I get lost in my thoughts easily and I really appreciate beautiful things. I don't just think models and new things are pretty either. It's amazing the beauty you can capture in a crumbling building, or in the eyes of a stray cat. I have a terrible weakness for orphans both human and animal. I can't help but to take them in to my tiny apartment and let them stay as long as they like.
One day, the same one day I hope to be a Jonin, I hope to have a large house where I can shelter those who need it. I understand the pains of being homeless, as well as mental issues that lead people to needing company. I'm a very non-judgmental person. I accept people and all of the traits they have to offer. I feel everyone can find a special place in the world, or a skill that makes them special, if they look deep within themselves and try. I've found this place in my art and I want the opportunity to help others find it as well.
⚜History⚜
Who am I?
I was born without identity. One of none, one of many. My father was a Kedōin in high standing, my mother a devout follower of the Kaishaba. My childhood was pretty basic. I learned the beginning of my father's blood line, the one I inherited. My mother urged me to follow in the footsteps of her religion but already I had identity problems, I didn't need a religion that would give me even more limitations. Conformity was just not my style. At the age of six I began at the academy. I began learning about chakra and other clans and blood lines. I almost wished I was of another blood line, or none at all.
But I was never very lucky. I was a Kedōin and I always would be. By the time I was eight, almost ready to graduate from the academy, my parents were killed. Despite being in the Kumogakure Academy my parents lived outside the village. It was in an attack from Sunagakure that they were killed. My parents were ninja, and in my eyes they were good ones. But two people can't stand up to an army. Not only was my family killed but my house was destroyed.
The village was really good to me. They took me in and put me up in housing. It took me longer to graduate now because of the tragedy but by the age of ten I graduated. Missions helped me make money to afford expenses like food and things for my apartment. I pursued photography and art as my passion. They occupied my time and kept me occupied. I was never the best at making friends. My anxiety replaced my loss of identity. While I no longer had my family I was finally getting an idea of who I was, I just didn't know if I liked that person yet.
The only thing I had of my parents was my father's headband, which I now wore as my own, and my mother's shawl, the one she wore for her wedding. At the age of fourteen I began to be interested in boys but my shyness was too much for me to ever act on it. Instead I worked on repaying my debt to the village. They didn't have to help me but they did. They saved my life and they gave me a home when I would've been orphaned and probably would up dead.
I'd really like to become a stronger ninja now. To be a Jonin would be a dream come true. I'd probably be a pretty good AnBu because of my heritage but I don't know that I want to do that. I really owe it to Kumogakure to keep them safe and serve them as best I can. I want to be strong enough to protect someone, like the village protected me. I always want to do what is right, just like the village did. At least once a year I go to visit my parents graves and thank them for everything they ever did for me. They were also really great to me and they didn't deserve to die so young.
