"We sacrifice control for safety. That's what I think, anyway."

Kaguya Chishio was an embarrassment to the Kaguya clan. From the day of her graduation in the academy three years ago, to the day she stumbled back to the village bloodied but unbowed just a few months ago. Some would say she should have redeemed herself by now, but the fact is, though she is strong, and tough, and a fierce, deadly warrior… Chishio has never wanted to be Kaguya, and she has never carried herself with the frenzied bloodthirst which her Clan are so renowned for.

Background

+A Tale Most Tragic

Chishio was born to Conin and Seia Kaguya sixteen years ago. She was the only child her father sired before getting himself killed in a particularly brutal border skirmish. Her mother, therefore, decided that Chishio was going to follow in his footsteps and bring honor back to the family. By being a brutal, unyielding ninja. From dusk 'til dawn from the age she took her first steps, Chishio was trained in the use of knives, swords and bladed weapons.

She was good at it. She just hated it. Chishio wanted to be a flower arranger. That dream was never to come through.

Her ninjutsu and genjutsu - particularly genjutsu - was hampered by the fact that she was simply unwilling to grasp more than the basics of chakra manipulation. She was forced to learn to fight, but to learn anything beyond that would require more of the girl than she was willing to give. Surprisingly strong willed given her lackadaisacal attitude to training, there was only so much her mother could do to force her to learn. Eventually, of course, she did have to graduate the academy… and it was there that the troubles began.

The boy she was paired up with got into her head, and used her hatred of her training against her. As a result, when they struck, it was simultaneous. Chishio and her opponent both fell, and it was only the fact that Chishio resisted bleeding out the longest that led to her being declared victorious, and rushed to the hospital. Her mother was ashamed. Her child was weak, not deserving of the name of Kaguya, and yet, she was a Genin of the village. Better that she was used until she inevitably died a weakling than for the village to have thrown away two graduates.

She completed the low-ranking missions she was given with neither enthusiasm nor skill. Though she did complete them. Her attitude was bringing shame on her family. Her mother was upset, but there was little she could see how to change it…

An idea eventually presented itself, her family decided to send her on a suicide mission. Two years ago, she was told to go to a small village in the Land of Water which had been resisting the Daimyo, and kill every man, woman, and child there. It was assumed she would die, or desert. If she somehow succeeded, then at least she would have proven she has the stomach for being a ninja.

It took Chishio six months to travel there, and in that time the girl trained herself harder. She, didn't know if she could do this terrible deed, but, what choice did she have? She couldn't go rogue; she'd be hunted down and killed. She had nowhere to go. She had no real choice. This is what it meant to be a ninja. Either she did it, or she died.

When Chishio came to the village, she infiltrated it. She used every skill she had in order to be unseen, and to plot out what her slaughter would be. This, too, took a long time. There were just over one hundred people in the village of Koshiha, and though the majority of them wouldn't be a threat, she needed to be sure that she could accomplish the foul deed.

First, she trained her body; she actually took to training for the first time in her life, learning every inch of herself, how she moved, how she balanced. She was already prodigiously strong from her youth, and after a month she was certain she was as strong as she was going to become on her own.

Then, she trained her mind. She learned to manipulate her chakra. She put time into it. She learned to walk on surfaces and water with her energy. This was more difficult. It took her almost a full year (though she was sending back regular reports to Kirigakure to confirm that the village was not making any movements, and that she would strike when she knew she could do so).

The hardest thing was that in this time, she had come to learn the village almost as well as she knew her home. She knew the name of every living being inside it. She knew how they lived. She liked them. So, she had to train her soul. She had to put aside emotion. A missive came back from her mother; she would either complete her mission inside the next week, or she would be branded a traitor and a team would be dispatched to kill her. She was a disappointment for being so weak.

That night, the village died. The men went first. The strongest had their throats cut in their beds. Her speed was such that by the time anyone realized what was going on, it was far too late. She'd trapped the surrounding fields. She hunted down every man, woman and child. She knew them all by name. She left nothing to chance. Every single one of them died.

And it was as she was heaping the dead into the center of the village, that the authorities arrived.

Needless to say, Chishio was not a match for four dozen well trained soldiers, no matter how strong she had gotten herself. She was greviously wounded, and she ran. She managed to get word back to Kirigakure that the mission had been completed, but it was assumed that… as she didn't arrive back… she had been killed in the effort to return.

The truth of the matter was far different. Though she had been badly wounded, Chishio had too much will to survive to die. It just took her a long, long time to drag her broken, battered body back to Kirigakure.

When she finally did make it back to the village, she was begrudgingly commended by her family. It isn't every ninja who has the skill or mettle to actually complete such a mission, let alone on their own. Their hands were essentially forced; even though she had barely survived the effort, she was promoted to Chuunin.

Now that she's seen these things, and done what she has done, though, something has changed in the girl. She is only just barely accepted by her family… and now, she must decide what kind of place she is going to have in this village.

Personality

+Glimpse behind those eyes.

Chishio is like any typical teenager in many ways; she is curious about the future, about love, about the world, and about her place in it. She is at the threshold of an exciting time in her life. What happens over the next few years is likely to shape her career. At the very least, now she is a Chuunin, her reputation is likely to be established and it will be much harder to change.

Unlike a typical teenager, Chishio has a keen understanding of death. Having been almost killed twice in her life so far, she is determined to survive. She has killed before, many times, and she will kill again, in the name of protecting her own life.

Chishio is dealing with changes; in her social standing, in her village, and in her life. She has to deal with what she's done, but she also has to struggle to find a place for herself in the future. These are exciting and dangerous times for her. Who she is, is in flux. Who she was, is not someone she wants to remain.

As a person, Chishio is somewhat depressing. She has far more hates and dislikes than she has likes and hobbies. She's always been fascinated by flowers and flower arranging, as she finds the purely aesthetic pursuit of the art truly enjoyable. However, she has never been given the time or freedom to truly pursue this love, and it has never had the opportunity to bloom.

She hates and dislikes far more; she hates her mother, her Clan, her profession, and even to some extent herself. She considers herself a coward for not having the guts to stand up for herself, and she fears that her determination to live may cost many better people their lives.

Life is not all seriousness and fears, however. Due to a long period of forced solitude, Chishio has developed a black sense of humour which life often gives her the opportunity to exercise. She has also developed a taste for songbirds. These are harder to come by in Kirigakure itself, but out on the trail, there's nothing finer than a delicious bush-warbler or robin. Yum!

Appearance

Chishio stands at just under five foot tall, but for such a short girl, she's got an aura of raw… scary! The fact that she's almost all muscle helps a lot.

Who would have thought that red eyes could be so cold? Dark, dead, and crimson. Her hair is bright silver. Marking her, for those who know these things, as a probable member of the Kaguya clan. She keeps it in two ponytails, but lets these drape in front rather than behind as is the tradition of the Clan.

Around her left bicep she has strapped the forehead protector of Kirigakure. Presumably because she's too cool to wear it where it was designed to be worn. She also wears… a dress? Yes, she's wearing a black, loose-fitting dress with a white apron and a white shirt with puffy sleeves underneath it. Her feet are protected by simple sandals, which look home-carved most likely, though out of petrified wood.

As mentioned, this girl is *buff*. She's rippling with muscle. Her flesh is pale and her skin unscarred, but every inch of muscle is toned and toughened. She does not look like she is armed.

This is not the case.

Timeline

Three years ago - Chishio graduates the academy. Gravely wounded in the final exam.
Two Years ago - Chishio sets off for Koshiha
Two Years - 28/05 - Chishio trains herself in order to be certain of success when she moves against the village.
21/05 - Chishio is instructed to make her move or be declared a traitor. Koshiha is destroyed.
28/05 - Bloodied and hurting, Chishio collapses at the front gates of Kirigakure.
30/05 - Regaining consciousness, Chishio is promoted to Chuunin.
04/06 - Chishio recovers from her wounds enough to leave the Kaguya compound. She engages in her first ever philosophical discussion. Begins to consider this 'fun'.

Abilities

Chishio has Taijutsu abilities that rival some Jounin. Her ninjutsu and genjutsu have suffered for this proficiency, however. Her ninjutsu is barely above a newly minted Genin, and her genjutsu is practically non-existent. Up close and personal, though, there's few who can be certain of getting away unscathed.

In terms of techniques she lags behind most other Genin, due to a lack of opportunity to study. She relies largely upon her strong basic skills. However, she is trained in Shikotsumyaku Taijutsu

She has a firm grasp of the Dance of the Kaguya.

Her most advanced killing strikes are clearly derived from the Shikotsumyaku Sharp.

She usually uses at least two blades simultaneously, and has mastered the utility of these weapons in offensive and defensive terms. She can therefore use the Dual Blade attack and defense.

Relations

+Who Matters

Yotsuki Ryuutei - We've only just met, but there's something there. Too many similarities to look away. Too many differences to be certain how close one can get. He's polite. Quiet. Introspective. All the things I'm supposed to hate. But I like it. It is, fun to think about these things. Is that the right word? Fun? It certainly feels… rebellious.

+Open Village Thoughts

Kirigakure - Home. I'm scared by it, sometimes. Quite a lot of the time, actually. Fear is the only logical reaction. I've never fit in. I've always been pushed, hammered towards being something I don't want to be. Well, I'm there now. There's no doubt about that. After the things I've done, there's no going back. Besides, where else could I go? This is all I've ever known.

Konohagakure - They say they believe in friendship and camaraderie over everything else. How can a ninja work when they have hearts that sensitive? It sounds like nonsense to me. Strong nonsense, though. I've heard stories about their ninja. Frankly, I hope I never find out if half of what they say is true. On the other hand… it would be exciting to try and match the Gentle Fist.

Kumogakure - The Cloud are our enemies. They are strong, too. Swordsmen almost as good as the Seven, they say. I don't really know much about what they are supposed to stand for. Aren't they based in mountains or something? Sounds ridiculous to me. Ryuutei is from the Yotsuki clan, though. He's not bad. He doesn't even hate his Clan, which means they have to be better than the Kaguya. Tch.

Sunagakure - The village hidden in the sands. I hate heat. How can they stand living in a desert? Why bother? There's so many other, nicer places to be. I'd rather live in the damned forest or mountain than a desert. They're snakes, though, the lot of them. Neutrality. You can't trust neutrality. At least an enemy you know is going to try and stab you in the front, and you can be ready for an ally to stab you in the back. These people, though. They are out for themselves. Selfishness. Seems pragmatic, but not for me.

Iwagakure - I hear Iwagakure is based on the principle of equality. Earn your status through your accomplishments. I don't know if that is true, but it seems ridiculous. What you actually do is never what people see you as having done. Sounds like a great excuse for politics if you ask me. Bunch of nonsense. We're all equal, but some of us are more equal than others. Well. With luck, I'll never need to know more about them. The explosion corps sound, disturbing.

All Minor Villages - Pretty much interchangeable. Irrelevant. Might be worth finding out more later, but for now? They aren't much of a threat. If they were, they'd be Great Villages. I know too little about the others to start chasing down rumours about armour and magic rocks.

+Open Clan Thoughts

Kaguya - I have nothing to say.

Shirayuki - Hikan seems like he has a plan. If he can stop us tearing ourselves to pieces, I'm all in favour of it. The rest of them? Well… you have to respect that kind of ninjutsu. I wonder sometimes what life would have been like if I'd been born Shirayuki rather than Kaguya. But I'm not going to tell anyone that. What's the point in such dreams? I am what I am, and so are they. They'll lead. I'm happy to follow.

Okumo - Creepy bastards if you ask me. I don't trust them. On the other hand, I don't see them as much of a threat, either. Sure, spiders are creepy, and if you let them bite you, you might be in for some trouble. But you know what? I've never met a spider I couldn't squash. And if they are anything like the arachnids they like so much… at the slightest bit of prodding, they'll eat themselves.

Touketsu - Discipline is a wonderful thing. I have nothing but respect for the Touketsu. I know they aren't a clan as such, but maybe that just makes me like them more. I've always had a soft spot for the underdog, and this is what those guys basically are. Maybe I should see about trying to find one to take under my wing. Or… maybe I should just leave them be. They probably work better together than with outsiders.

All Other Clans: Strange stories are great to listen to, but I don't have enough to come to a real conclusion. So I'll keep my mouth shut.
