Yukiko Amaya [Finished]

Name: Yukiko Amaya [Yoo-kee-koh // A-may-a]

Age: 14.

Gender: Female.

Village: Sunagakure no Sato.

Rank: Genin.

Physical Appearance: Yuki usually wears a dark brown, sleeveless top that is fairly tight-fitting. From mid-way between her shoulders and elbows, she wears small, red-brown armbands with her village symbol etched onto a small metal plate attached to them. Lightweight, opaque fabric is attached to these bands and reaches down to her wrists. These pieces of fabric are, for all intents and purposes, sleeves. She wears red-brown, fingerless gloves that give her more grip. She wears ash-black shinobi trousers that reach to just below her knees. Over the top of these, however, she wears a lightweight, tan-brown cloth that acts as a sort of dress or skirt. Her shinobi sandals are red-brown, like her armbands and gloves, and reach to just above her ankles. She has a blade holster attached to her back, and a belt just above the top of her skirt. Attached to this belt are four tanto and two medium-sized item pouches. Yuki does not wear a forehead protector, her village symbol is etched onto the small metal plates on her armbands.



Personality: Put simply, Yukiko does not do things by halves. She is a very committed individual; always finishing a task she starts. If she knows she cannot complete a task, she will not even begin or attempt it. This attitude also translates into her hard-working attitude when training or on a mission.

As one might expect, Yuki has little time for social events. She does have friends – close ones even – though they are admittedly few in number. Those who dislike her tend to stay well clear, her serious personality frightening them enough to keep them from voicing their dislike. Her primary hate is boredom; she is always looking for something to do and cannot cope with an empty timetable. To this end, she is often rallying her close friends to go and train or explore.

It would be naïve to say or think that Yuki is always a serious individual. As long as she is with company that she is comfortable with, she’ll happily chat, joke around and enjoy herself. That is, if it doesn’t involve anything she would consider ‘childish’.

Element: Fuuton [Wind].

Background:

Yukiko was born in Sunagakure, 14 years ago. She matured quickly, seeming to be 'older' than the other children of her age. Her parents explained this as her 'adaptable nature' combined with having to learn to cope with the harsh conditions of her country. She took to the ideals and way of shinobi life, her parents eventually letting her join the academy aged 11.

It was there she made her first real friends, though only a handful of them. Yuki didn't mind, she preferred smaller groups of tightly-knit friends anyway. One of these friends was training to learn one of Sunagakure's specialist techniques - puppetry. Yuki was fascinated, and tried to learn all she could about it. She spent a month making a very simple puppet the show her classmates. Unfortunately, it broke as soon as one of them tried to use it, and Yuki was joked about across the class. At home, Yuki explained what had happened to her parents, who comforted her and told her she could always find a different skill. She told them about her favourite parts of the puppetry technique, one of which was the poisons they sometimes used. Her mother, a herbalist suggested that she learn about herbal concoctions from her. Eager to learn something she might be good at, Yuki spent most of her free time learning the trade from her mother.

A month into this extra 'education', her father made a suggestion that Yuki was thrilled to hear. He had been doing some research, and reckoned it was possible to combine her newfound knowledge with shinobi skills and chakra, giving her a as yet undiscovered talent amongst her peers. She continued with her mother's lessons, but found time to train with her father too. Yuki forsook a social life for the best part of a year, and her grades dropped in the academy. At 12 years old, she was near the bottom of the class. However, by this time she had a handle of her talent, and was ready to begin again with her shinobi training.

She impressed the academy teachers with her determination and progress, though they were unaware of her talent in poisons that was being fostered at home. By the time she was ready to take the exam, she was able to create poisons internally, mimicking those she had learned to make with her mother in her herbalist lessons. In the academy exam, she surprised her teammates and sensei by revealing a technique she had developed herself. Her special poison caught the Jounin unawares and the team managed to succeed over their weakened opponent in the set task. She graduated the academy with full support from her teachers. Even now, very little is known about the extent of her talents.

Rp Sample:

The pestle and mortar lay on the tabletop, their hardened clay surfaces smeared with a mustard-yellow substance. Yukiko used a knife to scrape the substance off and transferred it into a flask. She stood up from her chair and walked over to the other side of the well-lit room. She returned to her seat clutching a vial of water, which she proceeded to pour into the flask with the yellow paste in. There was a hissing sound as the two substances mixed, Yuki giving them a helping hand by stirring with her knife.

The room was, in fact, the back room of her mother's herbal remedy store. Around the room were small pots and baskets containing plants, a desk with numerous vials of different fluids stacked on its surface, and a long table where Yuki was currently sat. Once more, the young girl pushed back her chair and walked over to one of the smaller plants. She titled the flask slowly and poured a couple of drops of the pale yellow liquid onto the soil in which it was buried. A moment later, the plants began to curl and shrivel. When the plant was no more than a tiny, black-green shrivelled shell of its former self, Yuki tapped it with a finger. It crumbled into a fine dust. The girl smiled and held the flask out in front of her, her free hand held about a foot over its top. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Her free hand began to smoulder, faint yellow wisps appearing to flicker around the skin. Yuki exhaled and shook her head. The wisps disappeared. She sighed and put the flask back on the table, looking somewhat disappointed.

Clan Name: N/A.

Kekkei Genkai: Though Yukiko does not belong to any known clan, she does have an innate ability that is assumed to be genetically inherited. Neither of her parents have the same ability, however.

Yukiko is able to create a number of different poisons and their respective antidotes within her body to be released in liquid or gaseous forms. Note that this only creates the poisons - it does not expel them from the body. One drop of an antidote is enough to reverse a poison's effects. Yukiko has developed this into a number of taijutsu and ninjutsu techniques she calls the “Hebi Ryuu [Snake Style]”. It is recognizable by the color of the poison of the jutsu or that surrounds the attacking item (be it a weapon or body part).
