A woman teeming with beauty. She's attractive and she knows it, though her humble demeanor prevents any bragging upon the subject. Beneath her otherwise slender frame rests power and agility that most simply could not fathom. Her pale skin remains flawless, with a deep, X-shaped scar on her chest being the only exception. It's origin is something the female always keeps to herself, despite being rarely seen. Charcoal colored locks fall around her youthful face, ending abruptly before becoming too lengthy. She adores her short length hair for never hindering her while on the battlefield. Keen violet optics often stare out into the horizon, always aware of the potential dangers of the world.
The apparel that adorns her thin body is usually tight-fitting and comfortable. Most of the time, Jun is caught clad in tight black leggings along with a navy blue button down jacket at the torso. The collared shirt is actually quite fancy, being made from high quality materials and the buttons running down it being aligned at the side. Beneath it is a plain, long sleeve black shirt. The bottom-most layer conceals a protective mesh, which provides for basic defensive purposes. On the woman's hands are a pair of sturdy brown gloves, ideal for grasping the handle of a blade. A thin belt of the same color holds her prized weapon at her curvy waist.
Jun's effects consist of an brilliant onyx colored katana that waits patiently at it's wielder's side. Intertwined with the black edge is a bit of silver here and there. The sheath of the blade is also black in color. Another accessory often viewed upon her persona is the black scarf she wraps loosely about her neck. In windy weather, it flows gently behind her, though never falls too far behind. An ordinary knife lies hidden within the right sleeve of her torso at all times. Out of sight, it can easily be retrieved at a moments notice and utilized against an unsuspecting adversary. It retains no special properties, however is all the more deadly when placed in her delicate hands. Lastly is the Kumogakure headband that she keeps concealed, unless otherwise stated. Most of her features are considered feminine; a slim neck, long, curved eyelashes, and the way she walks. Yet, there is something about her that gives off an impression of strength.
History:[/u]
She knows not of her birth parents, nor their whereabouts, though none of this is due to a state of amnesia. She simply does not remember those who were taken from her life at an early age. There is but one man who knows of what truly became of her biological mother and father but he never did tell her. Besides being born in the frigid region of Yuki No Kuni, all the female recalls is her raising under a famed swordsman named Izanagi. He found the lonely child in the midst of despair, a fresh scar in the shape of an X etched into her chest. Her weather-beaten appearance made it apparent that she was without care. Bloody and on the verge of death, he took the then four year girl under his wing and gave her a second chance at life. She was taken home, where an elderly woman was actually the one who acted as nurse to save the child's life. Afterward, even from such a young and tender age he failed to show her too much "motherly love". Simply put, he was hard on her. Besides the occasional kindness provided from Izanagi's own mother when the two stopped by to visit her, Jun knew not much of warmth.
An experienced 28 year old master of the blade at the time, Izanagi taught his pupil the ways of the sword from a young age. Of course, his mother was against it and offered to aid in raising a young lady under more suitable conditions, however "Nagi", as Jun nicknamed him was more intent on teaching his apprentice how to survive in the world. For many years he engraved in to her many, if not all of the weapon styles that she is adept in today. The male was a nomad, never staying in one place for too long, as not to attract "bad luck" was his excuse. As such, he did a lot of traveling, and Jun was at his heels the entire time. She went everywhere with him, and after getting over his initially rough personality, became rather fond of him. She grew attached to the male as if she were his true father all along.
He kept her past, including the scar a secret from her, not wanting to hurt the girl by revealing the terrible fate that was bestowed upon her innocent family. Jun, not knowing how she came to own such a wound dared not to bring it up with her master. Whenever she did so, his saddened expression only killed the mood. Nowadays, if someone were to ask her where it came from, she couldn't give them an honest answer, since she doesn't know either. So he continued to be her keeper, watching over her and noticing her growth both age-wise and as a human being. She was blossoming into a beautiful woman. Soon the boys would be chasing after her. At times, he couldn't help but put his grim persona to the side and simply smile at what she was becoming. "Nami" was the abbreviated title her gave her, in response to the one he received. In a way, she was the only person that knew the other, more gentle side of him. To everyone else, he was a seasoned wielder of the sword. Feared for what he did, not many stepped to to challenge his skills. Though to him, Jun could very well surpass him one day. She held within her surprising talents, especially for a female.
And yet it was for this reason other ridiculed her. They expected from a lady weakness, causing her to take on the same cold, solitude preferring type of demeanor as her over-seer. The guys that aimed to seduce her were met only with a sharp tongue. Besides her master and his mother, Jun was distant from almost all other human beings. Then at the age of 16 her whole world was rocked by a sudden turn of events on Nagi's part. He halted their normal lifestyle, leaving the loyal kunochi in his wise elder's care. At first the young woman could not comprehend the reason for this. She had fought at his side all these years and now he had deemed it necessary to go alone? Though unable to pursue him, she was forced to wait. Meanwhile he undertook a solo mission, heading deep into the heart of Ami No Kuni. It was there that the swordsman met his untimely end, at the hands of a mysterious Rain ninja. He left behind a legacy, a girl who was completely oblivious to his demise, as nobody ever told her. She was forced to seek out the answers on her own.
And once she discovered the truth she was overcome with a sadness so overwhelming that Jun has since declared an eternal and completely biased hatred for Rain shinobi. They took the life of the only man in the world that meant anything to her. By then she had reached age 18. After that day, she decided it best to settle down in Kumogakure and further hone her skills as a practitioner of the katana, in hopes of one day slaying the Ame nin. that killed her former master. Jun still takes a trip back out to see Izanagi's mother every now and then. The woman has aged quite well, considering the hardships she has had to endure, including the death of her beloved son. She often tells Jun that she sees Nagi in her and that they still act just alike. Seen as more like her "grand-daughter" in a way, granny has watched her grow up just as much as her "father", and never goes without giving advice to the kunochi for the road.
A beautiful and deadly maiden consumed only with fulfilling her goals. Some call it a path towards self-destruction; she calls it passion.[/font]
P e r s o n a l i t y[/font]
Jun retains many of the traits of her former master, meaning that she is often seen as cold and distant. Socializing is not her strong point, and being rather blunt in conversation can make her come off as rude. She speaks primarily when spoken to, using the least amount of words possible. Her body language and lack of emotion make it difficult for other to read her and give off the impression that it'd be best if one left her alone. A lot of the men that try hitting on her often second guess themselves when they notice how imposing she can be. The braver ones usually end up with a black eye.
Underneath her quiet ways is a constantly analyzing woman. She takes in the details of the surrounding world, making her extremely observant and able able to recall even the most trivial of details. This also makes her a very judgmental soul. First encounters do a lot to make her determine what type of person you are in her vivid eyes. And she will always remember. Difficult to talk to while chatting with others, she'd much rather play the role of listener and gather information, than do the talking. She cares not for formalities and whatnot, much preferring to speak whats on her mind. Due to this, she can't stand fake people, or those who lie. Still, in professional situations, such as standing before the Kage, she does know how to compose herself and act accordingly. The lady is quite mature.
One of Jun's biggest personalities flaws is that she is undeniably stubborn. Or, ambitious as she calls it. The female is completely wrapped up in her mission to seek out her master's murderer. She likes what she likes and not much else. Anything outside of that is not of much importance. This makes her quick to push aside anything she doesn't know too much about. She isn't fond of trying out new things either. Strict and disciplined are what others might see her as. The kunochi takes shit from no one. She possesses a sharp tongue and an ever sharper blade and isn't afraid to put someone in their place. Yet despite her ruthless nature, she still has an affinity for good, especially with children. Her morals keep her from becoming the same type of cold blooded killer that she is currently hunting for.
Highly intelligent, the maiden remains difficult when it comes to getting to know her. She is willing to hear about others, though fails to return the favor. She hates putting herself out there and being in the spot-light. Call it shy or whatever, but she despises drawing attention to herself. Avoiding it at all costs, the girl never does talk too deeply about herself or gives out any personal info. concerning her life. Almost always serious, it's a shame that the woman never smiles, for granny always told her that she had the most beautiful one she had ever laid eyes upon. Her trust is difficult to gain, but if one is patient enough to befriend her, they have become ally to an extremely loyal and caring woman. Simply put, she looks out for her own and would go to the ends of the Earth to aid them. For the most part, the only people she will hate with an obvious bias are Ame shinobi. Reasons for such hostility are clear.
Confined on her road towards revenge, never straying too far away from that desire.
Of a love that was sure to end,
Every dream in her heart was gone,
Headin' for a Showdown."
