Personality:
Despite some of her minor instabilities, or perhaps even because of quite a few of them, Anastasia is quite the timid individual, often finding it hard to assert herself into a conversation. Often times, people confuse this timid nature of her's for anti social behavior, but in actuality she is simply a quiet individual that finds it difficult to function properly in conversational or public settings if she does not know the person. Sometimes this will manifest itself when she tries to speak and ends up stammering quite a bit. Though, often times she tends to hide behind things like menus when available or busy herself to distract herself a bit from the fact that she is interacting with other people instead of just talking to herself.
Ever since she was a child and her first experience with a man was forced upon her the girl developed a fear of men that, at times, threatens to drown her into inaction. This is not a condition that she always faced, it was not even so terrible as a child, yet the fear continued to grow as she grew and different things were forced upon her. While this is most often a crippling fear of hers, throughout her life she has learned to steel herself and power through encounters with men. It often takes time to prepare herself to deal with encountering men, so if caught off guard by one she can easily frighten and go off to hide while she prepares herself to confront the man.
The woman was damaged mentally in more ways that simply a fear of men being instilled upon her. The trauma that she endured to her psyche left deeper scars which manifest in various ways, one of which being horrible night terrors. It is not uncommon for her to for her to wake in the middle of the night, shrieking with terror over the monstrous dreams that her traumas have plagued her with. This mental scarring does not only portray itself as horrifying nightmares, but also in her manner of dress. Due to the training and conditioning her body underwent the woman can no longer feel secure in clothing that conceals too much skin, doing so will end up frightening her and make her feel overly vulnerable.
When she sets her mind to something it is incredibly difficult to sway her from such a thing, though difficult does not mean that it is impossible. She has set her mind on several things, the most prominent of which being a determination to protect the people of the Sound Village and the Village itself. This itself will last only as long as the Village does not promote the continued slavery of her people. With all of her determination there are some lines that she will not cross, even if that means accomplishing what she set out to do. There will never be an occasion where she will work with those who oppresses her people, or someone that she has deemed her enemy. The Masamune woman also refuses to murder anyone in cold blood to further her causes or just in general.
After experiencing so many terrible things in her life, Anastasia does her utmost to try and make the lives of others around her just a little bit better. This will range from minor acts of generosity and charity to risking her own life to save another. She was not always like this and it was only after tasting the joy that accompanied it that she grew the want to help others find happiness as well. While she herself does not see this as a purpose of her life, it is still something that drives her. As something that influences almost all of the decisions she does make, she also makes it a purpose to show mercy whenever possible, mostly by doing her utmost to never take a life when unnecessary.
Appearance:
Anastasia is a woman that can be described as quite the beautiful woman by some, though the woman considers herself far from attractive. With a a facial shape akin to a heart acting as a perfect formation for porcelain hue features many find her difficult to resist. Eyes of an almond shape set themselves softly into her countenance without being sunken or bulging with a lovely shade of aquamarine, slightly on the darker side, which almost seem to shine. Her lips, which have a lovely light pink color, have a sharp shape to them and are slightly on the smaller side, yet this shape brings a new warmth and life to her smile. Her nose itself bears a somewhat refined shape to it without being to small or large on her face to dominate her features, instead being a perfect medium size to accentuate them.
Framing those lovely, soft features are framed by long silken tresses ebony in coloration, providing a contrast to the fair tone of her skin as it falls down her back and reaching an end just above her hips. So often gone without any form of styling her hair ends to drape gently over slender shoulders and down her back, concealing the nape of her neck and the seal placed upon all Masamune. It is here, upon that seal, where the only scar her body possesses at the moment lays. It is a thick, ugly scar made when she was young and once attempted to claw the mark from the back of her neck and dug away sizable chunks of flesh.
Her slender arms and soft, dexterous hands, not yet roughened by the calluses of a sword user, end in long nails that are rarely ever painted but always seem to have a gloss of some kind. Her body itself seems to lack much muscle of any kind, having never trained to a high extent in hand to hand combat or anything of that sort, yet it does not seem to possess an abundance of body fat either. There is one part to hear that does appear... weighty, but the buxom Masamune manages to keep those assets from being a hindrance while in motion.
Anastasia's long legs are quite slender and, as with the rest of her body, do not possess a great deal of defined muscle. Upon her feet she wears quite the odd pair of shoes which she had custom made to suit her style, despite the impracticality of it all. The design is inspired of the sandals worn by gladiator, with the toes and top of the foot open, yet the don't stop like standard sandals. The leather dyed crimson and silver of the shoes wrap around her foot and up her leg, reaching up to her hips with a fluid, almost wave like, design. The dress itself is a fairly simple double layer center slit dress with a high slit and short skirt.
The outer layer of her dress is made with a velvety material with a golden yellow exterior coloration and a peach shaded lining that also bears a series of spiral designs. The interior later of the dress is made with the same velvety material, save for the fact of being a lighter shade of red with a hemming of white and an orchid design in each of the two corners. The top is a vest style strapless bustier of the same red and white as the inner layer of the dress with both the top and bottom of the outfit being joined by something akin to an Obi worn with Japanese kimono of a dark red fabric hemmed by white. Over her shoulders and arms is an opaque, orange silk shrug with golden bracelets at the wrist of the sleeves and silver chord hemming it. While she generally wears no other ornamentation the woman always has her Sound Headband or some other covering over her forehead, blocking a somewhat cross shaped tattoo placed upon her forehead which represents the house insignia of her former owners.
Kekkei Genkai: Masamune
History:
Tales of slavery are never those with happy beginnings, and seldom do they end happily, but I will tell you of one that is currently in the making and perhaps one day I will complete it for you. This one starts with the birth of a girl among the Masamune enslaved to one of the great Feudal houses, who shall not yet be named, of the Rice Field Country province of Sound. A Star of Misfortune must have risen for the task of her birth because it was that moment that the masters that owned her decided that she would be the personal house slave, not one to see the mines. And so she was taken from her mother, never to be held gently or know the love of a parent. Instead the child was raised by a wet nurse and for a time things seemed as if they would be decent, yet that lasted only for a time a slave is but a slave after all.
It was at four years that it was decided the girl was fit enough to begin to work among the staff of the household, a miniature maid given the minor duties and spared no punishment upon the inevitable failures. From the beginning the child was beaten for such failures and quickly learned the proper way to do the job in fear of further violent retaliation. During her days working the children would often mock and abuse the child even giving he nameless slave the name Anastasia, as their pet. Yet the worst is still yet to come, even as a young child she learned quickly and did her job, yet she did not leave childhood when it began, the inevitable excuse that all such female slaves shall eventually encounter and whilst earlier than some, the nine year old child was by far the youngest slave to ever experience an undesired encounter of sexual nature the way she did.
From that day onward the child was removed from her homely duties and instead was trained for a new task, the one that was forced upon her by the drunk man who desired the comfort of unripened flesh. More than the training of her body and mind for the task, the child was also given the knowledge to read and write, for they had bigger plans for the girl than simply a living tool to service the men of the household. Day after day, month after month, year after god forsaken year the girl's body was trained by the old and young, men and women, and every day after her more physical training she was taught to read and write. For she would be more than a simple slave for sexual use. With the training completed before her eleventh year, the child was sold to other houses as a prostitute and tasked with stealing information for them as well as sating the physical desires of others. It was also on this year that she was given a collar and name tag, further proof that she was nothing more than a creature to these people.
There were times when she was caught, times when she recorded something wrong, and times where she simple could not make the time among her primary duties and in such times the child found herself beaten in punishment. Yet she continued the job no matter the punishment, she had no choice otherwise and her body grew and she developed becoming more and more accustomed to the things she was forced to do, if no less disgusted and ashamed of that which she had to do. Things began to change one day, when a woman arrived at the manor and was given a job as secretary, primarily the one who transcribed the intelligence brought in by Anastasia. This woman was the only one to show the slave any form of kindness, though Anastasia only believed her toying with her to cause greater pain later on.
For years she worked with this woman, trying to spend whatever time she could with her, praying for that kindness that she was shown to never cease, though she feared that it would. When the slave woman reached age twenty two four years later the secretary that showed her kindness appeared in the depths of night and clasped a hand over the slave's mouth to silence her. A shinobi of Otogakure that had been working undercover was this woman's true identity and unable to allow the slave woman to continue her life and freed the woman now that the mission was complete. For the first time in her life the slave had a choice before her, one that she could actually make for herself and the very prospect of choosing frightened her. Yet fear of the choice did not outweigh the fear of what she would continue to do should she remain in this house, enslaved to this family, and so she left with the ninja.
Grateful to the people that freed her from the life of servitude that she decided to do all she could to live her life in service to the land and began to train herself diligently to do just that. With her bloodline's abilities she already had a grasp on manipulating chakra and she worked towards that, but did not limit herself to it. Karinui, The Art of Throwing, Santoryu, Doton, Mokuton, and Ikebana, she studied them all in order to diversify her ability to help the village itself. While working to serve her village she went through the Chuunin exams and managed to pass and some time later managed to become a member of the AnBu Owl Division. And now at age twenty four she continues to serve the village loyally, yet what the future holds is not something that we are able to predict.
