Moriko Kirryu is a rather laid back nin who is one of the first Jounin amongst the new Kirryu ninja clan. She is known for her rather strong command of ninjutsu, specially elemental ninjutsu with wind and lightning. Also she's made sure to be competent in both Taijutsu and Genjutsu to round out her other skills. She is mostly known for rather extreme flexibility in abilities. She can fight hand to hand, use ninjutsu, or even to a lesser point genjutsu. Add to it that she's a mednin on top of everything else and she brings a rather diverse mixture of skills to the battlefield.

At home she's easy going, friendly and approachable and seemingly more at home out in a field teaching others, or laying back and relaxing whilst playing one of her many instruments, though pervy or 'ecchi' actions might draw her ire. She deeply enjoys music, and creative outlets like art, and even to a point she likes to write.

Background

+Open Mo's BG

Born about 16 years ago, in what one might call tumultuous times, Moriko is the middle daughter of one Yashiro Kirryu and Aelwynn Kirryu, the odd first name of her mother being one picked from a list of ancestor names, which is common to the family. Moriko is amongst the earlier generations born since the Kirryu peoples, clan, moved to the new continent. Some septs stayed for a while in Moon, whilst others, like Mori's immediate and large extended family moved on. Gradually they acted their way across the continent, working their way from one country to another, not choosing to settle a region due to various difficulties dealing with the locals, or mistrust, or just a general lack of intrest in the atmosphere, or people generally just didn't offer.

Throughout the general slow procesison toward the interior of the continent, Moriko had been growing up, and from an early age started learning about her clan's skills, starting with simple acrobatics. As soon as she could walk easily, Mori was taught to walk a balance beam, and put through many an obstical course as part of a game. Usually this was done with other Kirryu or children who lived in the moving encampment. Mor and more games were played and Moriko continued to learn the clan's ways, their unique fighting style, their own form of chakra control, and eventually to a basic degree, how to use the clan's own special ability to shapeshift.

Moriko had allways been a quick learner, and rather studious, but when it came time for breaks and to let go, she could be a handful, earning her name quite well in fact. Moriko loved to sometimes prank the adults or get into mischief. And when she wasn't studying or getting into mischief she oft liked to simply play music or read a book. Moriko learned really quickly how to play the flute, and later the mandolyn and other string instruments. Her roll in the troup was eventually to play in the small band that they used to entertain crowds or to accompany various acts. Moriko had a strong attachment to music and even was a bit of a genius when it came to learning new tunes, or just making up her own. Oft when learning music she'd pick out patterns and was quickly able to emulate various songs with her woodwind or stringed instrument. It was this ability that got the young girl her own act and from the ripe age of 9 started actually taking comers to play different music to see if they could stup the Kirryu Girl.

Finally when they came to the land of fire, it would be Mori's ability with music and her extreme athleticism that would draw the attention of members of the Senju clan. They invited the Kirryu troup to come to a natural Ampetheater and perform for them. All manor of acrobatic stunt was done, music was played, the occasional theater was played, with professional actors as well as Kirryu working side by side. The realism of the Kirryu's costumes amaised and captivated their onlookers, the grace which they moved, the fact that the animal-like costumes appeared so real. Then it was the 10 year-old Moriko's turn to enter the stage. She was in a good mood as she'd started to get a hang of her clan's abilities and had a real neat music show planned for them! The girl started with the flute, taking on comers and playing back their music. Finally she switched to the mandolyn, and delighted the crowd with a few of the songs passed down by the Kirryu family. Then her last little act. Moriko grabbed up a fiddle and she began playing a lively tune. During the tune something odd happened. The girl suddenly sprouted a fox's ears. Then a tail which would dance along to the tune.

Most who watched thought this was just part of the act, Many Kirryu knew it wasn't. Like a lot of the young clansmen Mori didn't have complete control of the ability all the time, and her falling into the music had caused her to loose a bit of that small control. Others noticed too. Some of the higher Senju paid close heed, the young girl's abilities and the abilities of other members of the clan having not gone unnoticed. Basically, the strange ability actually having been the reason for the Kirryu to have been asked for the private show. Finally, Mori's own little act was over, and the young girl beamed and bowed to her cheering crowd then skipped off the stage.

More acts followed, more Kirryu were observed and some of the Senju even paid close attention to their camp, such is the nature of nin. The Kirryu observed the observers as well, such was their nature. A long night of this went on and finally come morning a couple Senju came to speak to the Kirryu Elders, and were met. There was a long discussion and finally the offer was made. The Senju entreated the Kirryu to stay a while, what with winter coming on, the Kirryu actually accepted.

Over the winter, Mori along with other Kirryu Children began mingling with Senju. The kids would play together, and soon some Senju adults started training the Kirryu children along with their own. Maybe not in their own personal skills but definately started giving the Kirryu a more stealthy friendly skillset. This new form of training Mori and a lot of her bretherin took in whole heartedly, Even a number of the older Kirryu began learning what they could and quickly a more organized approach was made. Skills theory and ideas were traded between the two groups, not to mention information, and a bit of a friendship was formed. Soon the Winter drew on and ended, and their stay lengthened from months to years Mori having been learning actually how to be a ninja as supposed to just an entertainer. Seems Moriko and the Kirryu had finally found a place to settle.

She continued with her music, and her acrobatics but now she was gaining extra combat training as well, the girl's combat training she had received as a little girl now getting refined more capable, while those older Kirryu who caught on faster started going out on missions, aiding Senju and Fire alike as the wars fired up hotter as it were. Still, Mori was lucky, for the most part she was able to avoid most of the conflict, least up till her 12th year when she too went off to war, small outskirt type engagements yes, but still it was fighting, and fighting as ninja for a home instead of traveling from place to place. The conflicts really on the outskirts, but still, they provided the young Kirryu with experience.

Moriko and the other Kirryu served well, Moriko standing out quite high as she helped the Senju and served with disdinction. Finally the wars cooled, The Senju managed to help get peace started by forming an alliance with the Uchiha, the Daimyo asked that the nin help maintain the borders and the land of fire and Konohagakure's grounds were founded too. While the Kirryu didn't have much to do with that, other than serving as scouts information gatherers and occasionally combatants, the Kirryu still supported as best they could. It was amongst the first few months in the newly forming town thta Mori would meet the first member of her new team, Uma.

To say the two mixed like oil and water at first would be a bit of an understatement. Mori was for the most part easy going and perky, and did a very good job annoying the more reserved Uma to no end. Of course they were at least professional enough to work together when out in the field, Mori for the most part annoying Uma at first. Slowly Mori's ability showed through and despite her personality quirks, Moriko managed to befriend Uma, the Hyuuga and the Kirryu actually made a good team, what with Mori's more destructive ranged powers, and Uma's in close abilities. Add to it, Mori's chakra control was so advanced she eventually started healing as well, the girl quickly showing aptitude in the medical jutsu area and gaining a grasp on things and able to use at least minor healing jutsu.

Another year of good solid service and Mori, dispite her sometimes sillyness, was able to make it to chuunin. Still more distinctive service and just recently, Moriko had earned the title of Jounin and was thus also allowed to form a team of her own. It's with this that Moriko had returned from the capital city back to Konoha, a full Nin as it were and hopefully soon to be a successful team leader that could pass down her knowledge to other nin and help them better them selves.

Personality

When at home in and abroad, Moriko is an easy going kind of nin, not really prone to being snappish or hard. However she does take missions very seriously, even if she takes a calm approach to leading them.

Appearance

This strange, sometimes quiet 16 year old girl stands at about 6' tall overall with a rather athletic build and fairly broad shoulders. Her bronze-hued skin is rather smooth and seemingly well taken care of. The girl's extremely thick hair is a brilliant silvery-white, though oddly it sports a long red streak within it. Her hair is worn in a long, but loose pony tail that hangs well past her lower back. Her bangs are left free for the most part to frame a rounded slightly angular face. And sticking out of her hair slightly are her ears, both having a distinct point without much sign of any distinctive ear lobe.

The girl's eyes are slightly larger than normal and a deep rich blue, though oddly they show very little white, the iris being nearly twice as large as a normal person's. The girl's pupils are almond in shape oddly enough and seem to glow a dull blue in the dark when light glances off of them. above the eyes are thin, white eyebrows, both thin and arched slightly over the girl's large eyes. A rather cheerful sort at times, it takes very little to get this odd woman talking. When she talks or laughs she bears a set of sharp canines and incisors, the girl definitely having small fangs which fit neatly into her mouth.

A long neck leads into wide-ish, though proportional shoulders that narrow down slightly into a well built, and yes, large chest. Seems the woman is rather gifted in that area, her chest stretching her shirt rather nicely. Her torso narrows into a nice trim waist and flairs again at the hips and buttock area, giving her a nice hour glass shape. Add to the whole package a nice long, well muscled and athletic pair of legs and the same could be said for her arms, the woman not really too bulked per say, but athleticly built, ripped and toaned in the extreme, as if she had lived a life of solid exercise and training.

Currently, Mori is wearing a heavy black baby-t top which latches in the front with adjustable buckles it seems. Over this she wears a dark grey vest, almost a military style, this having large amounts of pockets in strategic areas over the front sides and somewhat on the back and oddly the thing appears to be collared? The odd girl leaves her midriff bare, leaving that toned belly of hers exposed and of course showing her navel as well. Around her waist is a pair of low-cut leather pants, these held up by a thin, but heavy leather belt, possessing a simple latch buckle, as if the belt had been made to fit. Though fitting snug, her pants are cut to allow for ease of movement. Also it seems, she wears a pair of bracers on her forearms as well, these are obviously made of metal and have a multitude of engravings on them resembling celtic knottwork and vines. She also is wearing a pair of knee cops and greaves styled much the same way. They are seemingly made of multiple pieces of metal, but the engraving carries fluidly over each piece, seemingly shifting as the girl moves. Lastly she wears a typical pair of light-moccasins and of course carries her ever-present utility pouch on the back and side of her belt.
