She can often be found aiding others at almost any task. She enjoys new experiences and is always eager to learn new things. She also prides herself on perfecting what she has already learned. She is very loving and loyal to the ones she lets into her heart. Unfortunately she has built a wall around her heart after being hurt so many times and can be seen as distant and cold at times even though she tries desperately to let others in. It is funny to see her around other people because she tends to feed off of others emotions, often taking them on as her own also she tends to put on a smile for everybody to see no matter how she feels. She follows the teachings of Bushidō to the letter. Habits: When she is in thought or afraid she will chew on her bottom lip. She will also squeak and/or cower during thunder and lightning storms or at overly loud noises. Inventory: She always carries a large many pocketed satchel filled with a large length of rope approximately 30feet. 15feet wrapped into a small ball the other 15 feet in a loose coil, Approximately 100 bandages all different sizes, Flint and tinder, 20 medium sized vials each of poisons and antidotes, Two handfuls of ingredients to make more vials, 10 empty vials, 10 sharpened Hira-Shuriken made from flat steel, 10 Shuriken made from either knives or needles, What little dried food she has at the time, A small spool of fishing line, Sewing needle, Fishing hook, And two extra kimonos folded as small as possible. She Also has hidden under her kimono sash is a belt carrying a full water skin and an almost always empty money pouch. Weaponry: She thrived on using a Katana that is 28.7 in /73 cm in length. worn with the blade facing up, which allows her to draw and cut her enemy in a single motion. She tends to use this in open areas along with her 20 in/50 cm Wakizashi for closer combat. She also uses a variety of sharpened Hira-Shuriken made from flat steel often tipped with poison and thrown at her targets slicing them or pinning them somewhere by their clothing. She will also use Shuriken made from either knives or needles which Contrary to popular belief, shuriken were not primarily intended as a killing weapon, but rather as a secondary weapon that sometimes played a role supportive to her main weapon. Shuriken were primarily used to cause either nuisance or distraction. Targets were primarily the eyes, face, hands, or the feet, the areas most exposed by a samurai's armor. The shuriken would sometimes be thrown in a way that cuts the opponent and become lost later, causing the opponent to believe that they were cut by an invisible swordsman. Shuriken, especially hira-shuriken, were also used in other novel ways – they might be embedded in the ground, injuring those who stepped on them or wrapped in fuse to be lit and thrown to cause fire, or wrapped in a cloth soaked in poison and lit to cover an area with a cloud of poisonous smoke. They can also be used as a handheld striking weapon in close combat. They can also be tipped with poison though she tends to only apply the poison when she knows she is going to be throwing them. Ability: She is fluent in reading and writing kanji and is a prodigy in the martial arts doing very well in Shurikenjutsu, Battōjutsu, Iaidō, Iaijutsu, Kenjutsu, Jujutsu Shinkendo, ninjutsu Taijutsu., She is also skilled in espionage ,assassination, sabotage, infiltration, , and She is able to hide easily and can almost defy logic in the way she moves her body so soundlessly and so quick. She can even do things like running across walls and climbing poles and ropes straight up. For being so tiny she is fast and strong with hidden muscles giving her a balanced strength. She does well in both hand to hand and weapon combat. She also knows how to fish, cook, dance, perform tea ceremonies, do minor first aid and sewing. Appearance: At the age of 12 ½ she stands at 4’5 and weighs only 90lbs,she is very small for her age and often confused for a much younger child. She is very feminine and childlike with her big sparkling Sienna and gold flecked eyes and chocolate hair that falls to the middle of her back but she tends to keep tied into a high ponytail using ribbons that always seem to match her kimono. Her skin is much lighter than most it is almost honey colored and sets off her hair and eyes that much more. She keeps her kimonos clean and presentable as best she can. And is almost never seen not wearing one. ![]() Biography: She was born to a high class family which is almost royalty or at least it would be still if the new government hadn’t taken over so long ago. See her family is actually descendants of the last emperor forced to run and change their name to something more inconspicuous. From then on they were poor and I suppose you are wondering how the Katō family got back on its feet well let me tell you it was not easy. It took a lot of determination, self-preservation, heart, and most importantly a keen business sense. Her family opened up a small stall with what little they had left and built it up into a corporation of sorts. It was more like the stall turned full on store and they bought land and a winery making rice wine and selling it as well as produce that they would farm at the store. But the store was a front for the real business. They were assassins through and through contract killers. They told nobody the family secret it was thought that their status rise was just from how wealthy they had gotten from the store but all the money came from the completion of contracts. They only told the family at the age of 14 but began prep-work and training at the age of two. Now the story of her personal history: She was born the second child to a loving family her older brother two years old and already training loved her very much. Time went on and her little family was happy this way. Then her mother got pregnant again this time with twins. The pregnancy was very hard on her mother and she helped out as much as possible. And when it came time for the birthing the babies, one male one female made it barely it was big scare but what was worse is that her mother died during child birth it was too much for her she wasn’t strong enough in her older age. After that there wasn’t much time to grieve for her she had to take on all the responsibilities of a woman. She practically raised the twins with little help from her father. He was busy with the store and the older brothers training though she was still forced to take time out of her responsibilities to continue her training. But about 3 years after the birth of the twins her father started getting very ill. She then took care of him as well. One day while she was away gathering herbs for her fathers care she left her eldest brother with the twins and told him to care for their father. When she returned that night with the herbs she had found the door was slightly ajar which was very unusual. She set the basket of herbs down as she entered the door the only sound to be heard was the creaking of the wood as she opened it. She entered the house her bare feet making no sound, enough so she could slip through the house quietly with a few Shuriken at hand ready to use them should she need to. Her hands shook as searched for her siblings and father. Everything was upturned and broken around the house it looked as if a hurricane had hit the inside of the house. She continued through it seemed as if nobody was left but then she came upon a body stained red with blood a horrified look was still present on her fathers face frozen in death. She gasped at the site and looked away she was desperate now to find her siblings. She went through the house searching everywhere over and over for hours but she saw no sign of her siblings anywhere. As far as she knew she was the only one left in her family so she tended her fathers body as tradition dictated and then closed the family shop. She then left to go in search of her family as well as start her Musha Shugyō. |
