[[Image:arisu.jpg|thumb|250px|Kazegari Arisu, a few months before her death.]]

==Summary==
Kazegari Arisu was a Jounin of Kirigakure no Sato and wielder of the legendary Seversword. She was born in Oni no Kuni, and had a traumatic childhood, but seemed to be recovering from her scars when she vanished shortly after the tournament in Arrakis. While it was initially thought that she had abandoned Kirigakure and become a missing ninja, her body was eventually discovered in the basement of a known drug house. She had died of an opiate overdose. Arisu was nearly illiterate so, although no suicide note was found, it was unclear whether or not her overdose was intentional.

While Arisu had struggled with a lifelong opiate addiction, even those close to her did not know its full scope. The whereabouts of her weapon are still unknown but it is assumed that the weapon is still located somewhere in [[Kaze no Kuni]].

==Trivia==
::''Private Knowledge; IC''
:* Although Arisu held out hope that her older sister may have lived to adulthood, she actually died shortly after they were separated.
:* When discovered, her body was too badly decomposed to make a proper identification. Eventually her headband and SHADAKI gear were traced back to her.

[[Image:kobushi.jpg|thumb|250px|Senju Kobushi, before the accident.]]

==Summary==
Kobushi was, at one time, a prodigal gymnast who was set to represent [[Hi no Kuni]] on the international stage. Tragically, he fell on his head and suffered a Traumatic Brain Injury. A shadow of his former self, he can no longer walk, control his bowels or speak. Kobushi's medical needs have devastated his family financially and emotionally. Nevertheless, they treat him with kindness and love. His sister, [[Hiragi]], even dropped her promising career as a dancer to research Medical Ninjutsu in the hopes of curing him.

Before the injury, Kobushi was a braggart with a big heart whose confidence radiated from every pore. Even though his schedule was incredibly busy, he always went to his baby sister's performances and was the first to congratulate her on her acceptance into a world renowned dance company.

==Trivia==
::''Private Knowledge; OOC''
:* Kobushi's injuries are incurable using current medical knowledge.
:* He is weak, and often gets very ill.
:* Although prone to tantrums, he is easily soothed by his sister.

Kobushi was, at one time, a prodigal gymnast who was set to represent [[Hi no Kuni]] on the international stage. Tragically, he fell on his head and was profoundly disabled.

Nevertheless, they treat him with kindness and love. His sister, [[Hiragi]], even dropped her promising career as a dancer to research Medical Ninjutsu in the hopes of curing him.

Rhapsody: /* Summary */

[[Image:iromomiji.jpg|thumb|250px|Senju Iromomiji, age 42]]

==Summary==
Senju Iromomiji is the eldest of four sons and, as his father put it, a disgrace to the Senju name. He was never able to control his chakra and was born without the legendary blood of his fabled family. His three younger brothers all went on to be prodigal shinobi, though two of them perished during the time of the NCIA. His only remaining brother, the yougnest, often sends money for his nephew's care. After his arranged marriage to [[Inumaki]], Iromomiji took a job in a factory making medicine, pills and other tools for use in the field- he felt it was the least he could do to serve the village.

Iromomiji is a tinkerer who enjoys puzzles and regards his children as his greatest joy. After his son, [[Kobushi]], was injured he placed all of his hopes on Hiragi and was devastated when she dropped out of her ballet career in order to become an under performing shinobi. Despite his disagreement with her decision, he remembered how his own father treated him for his inability and does his best to be supportive. Although he often comes off as gruff or uncaring, he is simply awkward like his daughter [[Hiragi]].

==Trivia==
::''Private Knowledge; OOC''
:* Iromomiji's greatest fear is that both of his children will be failures like him.
:* His favourite food is Bamboo shoots and, like [[Hiragi]], he is Vegan.
:* He plays the guitar.

[[Image:inumaki.jpg|thumb|250px|Senju Inumaki, age 37]]

==Summary==
Senju Inumaki is the mother of Senju [[Kobushi]] and [[Hiragi]]. She resides in Konohagakure no Sato, where she works for the village at a botanist. She is known for her youthful beauty, soft perfume and deep love of her husband, children and three cats. Although much of her time is spent caring for her profoundly disabled son, she still finds time to dote on her husband, [[Iromomiji]] and her daughter, who she worries about often. Although Inumaki is able to use the Mokuton, her skill level is below that of a Gennin, as she dropped out of the Academy at a very early age. She was much too gentle for the life of a Shinobi, and it was eventually arranged for her to marry Senju Iromomiji, a distant cousin of hers.

==Trivia==
::''Private Knowledge; OOC''
:* Inumaki is deeply troubled by Hiragi's inability to believe that Kobushi's condition is permanent.
:* Inumaki is 37, 5 years younger than her husband.
:* The names of her three cats are Icchan, Niichan and Sacchan. They are all rescues.

==Appearance==
'''Height:''' 5’5"<br>
'''Weight:''' 130 lbs.<br>
'''Hair Color:''' Light brown, cropped above her shoulders. <br>
'''Eye Color:''' Golden.<br>
'''Clothing:''' Hīragi most often wears loose clothing that allows freedom of movement. Most of her garments are oversized hand me downs from family members and charity shops. On missions, she wears a grey sweater and black pants under her flak vest, and a black headband on her forehead. <br>
'''Physical Description:''' Hīragi is tall and willowy, with a bony appearance and lanky arms and legs. Though graceful in her steps, she feels endlessly awkward about her boyish figure, hiding it underneath billowing and baggy clothing in neutral colors. With protruding hips, a small chest and scrawny arms, the young woman does not feel there is much to be proud of. Her feet are most often bare, perhaps contained in stirrup leggings, but she does carry around a pair of studio wraps in case they are needed. In times of harsh weather or terrain, a pair of brown, faux leather boots serve her well.

The girl’s thin hair is light brown in color, falling to her shoulders in length. Usually it is just allowed to fall freely, holding a slight wave but when the girl practices her ballet or medical Ninjutsu, she whisks it up into a top knot and out of the way. When on official business, Hīragi wears a black headband across her forehead. For missions she will typically wear a black flak vest over a gray turtleneck, black pants and brown boots. Various pouches in her vest hold a number of ninja tools and curative items. <br>

==History==
[[Image:hiragikid.png|thumb|left|370px|Senju Hīragi, Age 6]]When Hīragi was young, she danced. The expression of her feelings through the movement of her body was a means by which she felt content and complete. The young woman found meaning in the rhythm of her feet, comfort in the lithe and willowy form of her body. In the world of ballet, she felt as comfortable as a tier in the jungle. Hīragi felt as if she belonged.

Aside from her dedication to dance, a decidedly civilian past time that seemed out of place in a war-torn world, Hīragi’s childhood was normal. She was the younger of two siblings, equal in their ghostly appearance and talent for the physical arts. [[Kobushi]], the older brother, was a talented gymnast in his own right. He had joined the national team at the age of 13, one of the youngest ever to do so and the most talented by far. It was not long until there was talk of him representing the country in international games and tournaments.

The two lived with their parents on the Senju estate in a modest row house. It was a peaceful existence, and while they all were blessed with the gifts of their ancestry, none of the four members of the family showed any willingness to become shinobi. Only Hīragi’s mother, an accomplished botanist named [[Inumaki]], ever used the Mokuton in daily life. Her father, a factory worker, had never shown much of a penchant for anything beyond tinkering. A timid and aloof soul, [[Iromomiji]] preferred to read by the fire or play with puzzles.

This quiet life continued until the dawn of the NCIA, and even then was largely uninterrupted by its fearsome wave. The family moved to Hotarunoshi to escape the destruction in Konoha but, other than that, were allowed to resume their lives in much the same manner as before. Their heritage did mean that they were forced to register their whereabouts with the NCIA, presumably so the organization knew where to look if they suddenly decided to start a tree-related rebellion. Other than this brief interaction, which mostly exposed the family to bureaucracy rather than violence, they had little to do with the invading force that had taken over the shinobi world.

When finally the world returned to some form of normalcy, the family moved back to Konohagakure no Sato and helped in the efforts to rebuild it. Hīragi and her brother resumed their respective activities, with Kobushi having an eye on the highest prize at the upcoming international gymnastics meet. The boy was talented, and pushed himself to the limits regularly in hopes of scoring the top prize, something he was expected to win easily. Hīragi, meanwhile, had recently been offered a contract to join an internationally renowned touring dance company. She was set to depart for the land of Birds on the day that Kobushi fell. He did not get up.

At first the young man's prognosis was optimistic. He had fallen from a great height, but doctors were confident in his strength and youth. Eventually, though, they had to admit that he was a lost cause. Kobushi had hit his head and broken his neck, resulting in both paralysis and severely crippling his cognitive abilities. In a flash, he had gone from being a promising young talent to a vegetable. The brother Hīragi had known, who had driven her to succeed from day one, was nothing more than a shell of his former self. He had to be bathed, fed and wheeled around like a small baby. What few attempts he made to communicate were garbled and nonsensical.

Kobushi’s injuries felt like a stake through Hīragi’s heart. When the doctors were unable to fix his condition, she drove herself mad attempting her own medical research. The girl’s understanding of Ninjutsu was rudimentary at best but she truly believed it was the answer to her brother’s problems, and that the doctors at Hinata Hospital simply were not trying hard enough. While her parents worked long hours to pay the mounting medical bills, and spent what little free time they did have caring for their stricken son, the girl made up her mind that she would be the one to cure Kobushi. She withdrew from the dance company that had offered her a position, and set about her task.

Hīragi enrolled in Konoha’s Shinobi Academy, studying hard. Ninjutsu and its required chakra control proved harder than she had anticipated, and Taijutsu was where the young Senju really seemed to flourish… much to her chagrin. By the time she graduated a few years later, the doctors were already unanimous: Kobushi would lead a short and pitiful life requiring round the clock care. She refused to believe it.

With nothing left for her to do, and no other viable way to spend her time, Hīragi took up the mantle of a Shinobi. She’d heard it was a dangerous job, but the cut of her apathy had grown sharp and cruel. The girl no longer cared.

==Combat Style==

Hīragi is quite lazy, and not one for violence. Though her strength is great, thanks to the techniques of the Legendary Tsunade, and Haruno Sakura, the girl doesn't really throw her muscle around. She tends to hang back in battles, curing wounds and trying to stay out of trouble. The girl has yet to be forced to kill another human, but does not believe she is capable. Even if she were to be faced with a terrible foe, or someone who deserved to die, Hīragi would be more likely to incapacitate or arrest the offender rather than murder them.

As in life, she tends to be passive on the battlefield and yields readily to orders.

==Appearance==
'''Height:''' 5’5"<br>
'''Weight:''' 130 lbs.<br>
'''Hair Color:''' Light brown, cropped above her shoulders. <br>
'''Eye Color:''' Golden.<br>
'''Clothing:''' Hīragi most often wears loose clothing that allows freedom of movement. Most of her garments are oversized hand me downs from family members and charity shops. On missions, she wears a grey sweater and black pants under her flak vest, and a black headband on her forehead. <br>
'''Physical Description:''' Hīragi is tall and willowy, with a bony appearance and lanky arms and legs. Though graceful in her steps, she feels endlessly awkward about her boyish figure, hiding it underneath billowing and baggy clothing in neutral colors. With protruding hips, a small chest and scrawny arms, the young woman does not feel there is much to be proud of. Her feet are most often bare, perhaps contained in stirrup leggings, but she does carry around a pair of studio wraps in case they are needed. In times of harsh weather or terrain, a pair of brown, faux leather boots serve her well.

The girl’s thin hair is light brown in color, falling to her shoulders in length. Usually it is just allowed to fall freely, holding a slight wave but when the girl practices her ballet or medical Ninjutsu, she whisks it up into a top knot and out of the way. When on official business, Hīragi wears a black headband across her forehead. For missions she will typically wear a black flak vest over a gray turtleneck, black pants and brown boots. Various pouches in her vest hold a number of ninja tools and curative items. <br>

==History==
[[Image:hiragikid.png|thumb|left|370px|Senju Hīragi, Age 6]]When Hīragi was young, she danced. The expression of her feelings through the movement of her body was a means by which she felt content and complete. The young woman found meaning in the rhythm of her feet, comfort in the lithe and willowy form of her body. In the world of ballet, she felt as comfortable as a tier in the jungle. Hīragi felt as if she belonged.

Aside from her dedication to dance, a decidedly civilian past time that seemed out of place in a war-torn world, Hīragi’s childhood was normal. She was the younger of two siblings, equal in their ghostly appearance and talent for the physical arts. Kobushi, the older brother, was a talented gymnast in his own right. He had joined the national team at the age of 13, one of the youngest ever to do so and the most talented by far. It was not long until there was talk of him representing the country in international games and tournaments.

The two lived with their parents on the Senju estate in a modest row house. It was a peaceful existence, and while they all were blessed with the gifts of their ancestry, none of the four members of the family showed any willingness to become shinobi. Only Hīragi’s mother, an accomplished botanist named Inumaki, ever used the Mokuton in daily life. Her father, a factory worker, had never shown much of a penchant for anything beyond tinkering. A timid and aloof soul, Iromomiji preferred to read by the fire or play with puzzles.

This quiet life continued until the dawn of the NCIA, and even then was largely uninterrupted by its fearsome wave. The family moved to Hotarunoshi to escape the destruction in Konoha but, other than that, were allowed to resume their lives in much the same manner as before. Their heritage did mean that they were forced to register their whereabouts with the NCIA, presumably so the organization knew where to look if they suddenly decided to start a tree-related rebellion. Other than this brief interaction, which mostly exposed the family to bureaucracy rather than violence, they had little to do with the invading force that had taken over the shinobi world.

When finally the world returned to some form of normalcy, the family moved back to Konohagakure no Sato and helped in the efforts to rebuild it. Hīragi and her brother resumed their respective activities, with Kobushi having an eye on the highest prize at the upcoming international gymnastics meet. The boy was talented, and pushed himself to the limits regularly in hopes of scoring the top prize, something he was expected to win easily. Hīragi, meanwhile, had recently been offered a contract to join an internationally renowned touring dance company. She was set to depart for the land of Birds on the day that Kobushi fell. He did not get up.

At first the young man's prognosis was optimistic. He had fallen from a great height, but doctors were confident in his strength and youth. Eventually, though, they had to admit that he was a lost cause. Kobushi had hit his head and broken his neck, resulting in both paralysis and severely crippling his cognitive abilities. In a flash, he had gone from being a promising young talent to a vegetable. The brother Hīragi had known, who had driven her to succeed from day one, was nothing more than a shell of his former self. He had to be bathed, fed and wheeled around like a small baby. What few attempts he made to communicate were garbled and nonsensical.

Kobushi’s injuries felt like a stake through Hīragi’s heart. When the doctors were unable to fix his condition, she drove herself mad attempting her own medical research. The girl’s understanding of Ninjutsu was rudimentary at best but she truly believed it was the answer to her brother’s problems, and that the doctors at Hinata Hospital simply were not trying hard enough. While her parents worked long hours to pay the mounting medical bills, and spent what little free time they did have caring for their stricken son, the girl made up her mind that she would be the one to cure Kobushi. She withdrew from the dance company that had offered her a position, and set about her task.

Hīragi enrolled in Konoha’s Shinobi Academy, studying hard. Ninjutsu and its required chakra control proved harder than she had anticipated, and Taijutsu was where the young Senju really seemed to flourish… much to her chagrin. By the time she graduated a few years later, the doctors were already unanimous: Kobushi would lead a short and pitiful life requiring round the clock care. She refused to believe it.

With nothing left for her to do, and no other viable way to spend her time, Hīragi took up the mantle of a Shinobi. She’d heard it was a dangerous job, but the cut of her apathy had grown sharp and cruel. The girl no longer cared.

Hīragi is quite lazy, and not one for violence. Though her strength is great, thanks to the techniques of the Legendary Tsunade, and Haruno Sakura, the girl doesn't really throw her muscle around. She tends to hang back in battles, curing wounds and trying to stay out of trouble. The girl has yet to be forced to kill another human, but does not believe she is capable. Even if she were to be faced with a terrible foe, or someone who deserved to die, Hīragi would be more likely to incapacitate or arrest the offender rather than murder them.

As in life, she tends to be passive on the battlefield and yields readily to orders.

==Appearance==
'''Height:''' 5’5"<br>
'''Weight:''' 130 lbs.<br>
'''Hair Color:''' Light brown, cropped above her shoulders. <br>
'''Eye Color:''' Golden.<br>
'''Clothing:''' Hīragi most often wears loose clothing that allows freedom of movement. Most of her garments are oversized hand me downs from family members and charity shops. On missions, she wears a grey sweater and black pants under her flak vest, and a black headband on her forehead. <br>
'''Physical Description:''' Hīragi is tall and willowy, with a bony appearance and lanky arms and legs. Though graceful in her steps, she feels endlessly awkward about her boyish figure, hiding it underneath billowing and baggy clothing in neutral colors. With protruding hips, a small chest and scrawny arms, the young woman does not feel there is much to be proud of. Her feet are most often bare, perhaps contained in stirrup leggings, but she does carry around a pair of studio wraps in case they are needed. In times of harsh weather or terrain, a pair of brown, faux leather boots serve her well.

The girl’s thin hair is light brown in color, falling to her shoulders in length. Usually it is just allowed to fall freely, holding a slight wave but when the girl practices her ballet or medical Ninjutsu, she whisks it up into a top knot and out of the way. When on official business, Hīragi wears a black headband across her forehead. For missions she will typically wear a black flak vest over a gray turtleneck, black pants and brown boots. Various pouches in her vest hold a number of ninja tools and curative items. <br>

==History==
[[Image:hiragikid.png|thumb|left|370px|Senju Hīragi, Age 6]]When Hīragi was young, she danced. The expression of her feelings through the movement of her body was a means by which she felt content and complete. The young woman found meaning in the rhythm of her feet, comfort in the lithe and willowy form of her body. In the world of ballet, she felt as comfortable as a tier in the jungle. Hīragi felt as if she belonged.

Aside from her dedication to dance, a decidedly civilian past time that seemed out of place in a war-torn world, Hīragi’s childhood was normal. She was the younger of two siblings, equal in their ghostly appearance and talent for the physical arts. Kobushi, the older brother, was a talented gymnast in his own right. He had joined the national team at the age of 13, one of the youngest ever to do so and the most talented by far. It was not long until there was talk of him representing the country in international games and tournaments.

The two lived with their parents on the Senju estate in a modest row house. It was a peaceful existence, and while they all were blessed with the gifts of their ancestry, none of the four members of the family showed any willingness to become shinobi. Only Hīragi’s mother, an accomplished botanist named Inumaki, ever used the Mokuton in daily life. Her father, a factory worker, had never shown much of a penchant for anything beyond tinkering. A timid and aloof soul, Iromomiji preferred to read by the fire or play with puzzles.

This quiet life continued until the dawn of the NCIA, and even then was largely uninterrupted by its fearsome wave. The family moved to Hotarunoshi to escape the destruction in Konoha but, other than that, were allowed to resume their lives in much the same manner as before. Their heritage did mean that they were forced to register their whereabouts with the NCIA, presumably so the organization knew where to look if they suddenly decided to start a tree-related rebellion. Other than this brief interaction, which mostly exposed the family to bureaucracy rather than violence, they had little to do with the invading force that had taken over the shinobi world.

When finally the world returned to some form of normalcy, the family moved back to Konohagakure no Sato and helped in the efforts to rebuild it. Hīragi and her brother resumed their respective activities, with Kobushi having an eye on the highest prize at the upcoming international gymnastics meet. The boy was talented, and pushed himself to the limits regularly in hopes of scoring the top prize, something he was expected to win easily. Hīragi, meanwhile, had recently been offered a contract to join an internationally renowned touring dance company. She was set to depart for the land of Birds on the day that Kobushi fell. He did not get up.

At first the young man's prognosis was optimistic. He had fallen from a great height, but doctors were confident in his strength and youth. Eventually, though, they had to admit that he was a lost cause. Kobushi had hit his head and broken his neck, resulting in both paralysis and severely crippling his cognitive abilities. In a flash, he had gone from being a promising young talent to a vegetable. The brother Hīragi had known, who had driven her to succeed from day one, was nothing more than a shell of his former self. He had to be bathed, fed and wheeled around like a small baby. What few attempts he made to communicate were garbled and nonsensical.

Kobushi’s injuries felt like a stake through Hīragi’s heart. When the doctors were unable to fix his condition, she drove herself mad attempting her own medical research. The girl’s understanding of Ninjutsu was rudimentary at best but she truly believed it was the answer to her brother’s problems, and that the doctors at Hinata Hospital simply were not trying hard enough. While her parents worked long hours to pay the mounting medical bills, and spent what little free time they did have caring for their stricken son, the girl made up her mind that she would be the one to cure Kobushi. She withdrew from the dance company that had offered her a position, and set about her task.

Hīragi enrolled in Konoha’s Shinobi Academy, studying hard. Ninjutsu and its required chakra control proved harder than she had anticipated, and Taijutsu was where the young Senju really seemed to flourish… much to her chagrin. By the time she graduated a few years later, the doctors were already unanimous: Kobushi would lead a short and pitiful life requiring round the clock care. She refused to believe it.

With nothing left for her to do, and no other viable way to spend her time, Hīragi took up the mantle of a Shinobi. She’d heard it was a dangerous job, but the cut of her apathy had grown sharp and cruel. The girl no longer cared.

==Combat Style==
[[Image:hiragibottom.png|thumb|right|370px|Hīragi is often seen alone.]]
Hīragi is quite lazy, and not one for violence. Though her strength is great, thanks to the techniques of the Legendary Tsunade, and Haruno Sakura, the girl doesn't really throw her muscle around. She tends to hang back in battles, curing wounds and trying to stay out of trouble. The girl has yet to be forced to kill another human, but does not believe she is capable. Even if she were to be faced with a terrible foe, or someone who deserved to die, Hīragi would be more likely to incapacitate or arrest the offender rather than murder them.

As in life, she tends to be passive on the battlefield and yields readily to orders.
==Quotes==
:*''"I will save you, dear brother."''<br>
:*''"What a bother..."''<br>

==Trivia==
::''General Knowledge Available to Public; IC''
:* Hīragi used to be a ballerina, and had been scouted to join a prestigious dance company before becoming a Shinobi.
:* The family has three cats: Icchan, Niichan and Sacchan, named in birth order.

::''Private Knowledge; OOC''
:* Hīragi means "Holly," and all of her other family members are named after some sort of tree.
:* She does not know that her brother's condition is incurable, and as such has still not accepted it.
:* Hīragi is incredibly unlucky in life, but sees setbacks as challenges to be overcome.
:* Thanks to medical bills, her family is incredibly poor. They get by largely thanks to the generosity of their clan, who allow them to live in their tiny home rent free.
:* Hīragi is vegan, and follows the Buddhist faith.

::''Outside the Box; OOC''
:* Hīragi failed out of the Chuunin Exams in Rai no Kuni because creator Rhapsody was too busy in real life. Womp Womp.
:* Inspiration for Hīragi comes from several sources: Nohara Rin, Tsunade, Haruno Sakura and Monks in the Bravely Default Series.

==Appearance==
'''Height:''' 5’5"<br>
'''Weight:''' 130 lbs.<br>
'''Hair Color:''' Light brown, cropped above her shoulders. <br>
'''Eye Color:''' Golden.<br>
'''Clothing:''' Hīragi most often wears loose clothing that allows freedom of movement. Most of her garments are oversized hand me downs from family members and charity shops. On missions, she wears a grey sweater and black pants under her flak vest, and a black headband on her forehead. <br>
'''Physical Description:''' Hīragi is tall and willowy, with a bony appearance and lanky arms and legs. Though graceful in her steps, she feels endlessly awkward about her boyish figure, hiding it underneath billowing and baggy clothing in neutral colors. With protruding hips, a small chest and scrawny arms, the young woman does not feel there is much to be proud of. Her feet are most often bare, perhaps contained in stirrup leggings, but she does carry around a pair of studio wraps in case they are needed. In times of harsh weather or terrain, a pair of brown, faux leather boots serve her well.

The girl’s thin hair is light brown in color, falling to her shoulders in length. Usually it is just allowed to fall freely, holding a slight wave but when the girl practices her ballet or medical Ninjutsu, she whisks it up into a top knot and out of the way. When on official business, Hīragi wears a black headband across her forehead. For missions she will typically wear a black flak vest over a gray turtleneck, black pants and brown boots. Various pouches in her vest hold a number of ninja tools and curative items. <br>

==History==
[[Image:hiragikid.png|thumb|left|370px|Senju Hīragi, Age 6]]When Hīragi was young, she danced. The expression of her feelings through the movement of her body was a means by which she felt content and complete. The young woman found meaning in the rhythm of her feet, comfort in the lithe and willowy form of her body. In the world of ballet, she felt as comfortable as a tier in the jungle. Hīragi felt as if she belonged.

Aside from her dedication to dance, a decidedly civilian past time that seemed out of place in a war-torn world, Hīragi’s childhood was normal. She was the younger of two siblings, equal in their ghostly appearance and talent for the physical arts. Kobushi, the older brother, was a talented gymnast in his own right. He had joined the national team at the age of 13, one of the youngest ever to do so and the most talented by far. It was not long until there was talk of him representing the country in international games and tournaments.

The two lived with their parents on the Senju estate in a modest row house. It was a peaceful existence, and while they all were blessed with the gifts of their ancestry, none of the four members of the family showed any willingness to become shinobi. Only Hīragi’s mother, an accomplished botanist named Inumaki, ever used the Mokuton in daily life. Her father, a factory worker, had never shown much of a penchant for anything beyond tinkering. A timid and aloof soul, Iromomiji preferred to read by the fire or play with puzzles.

This quiet life continued until the dawn of the NCIA, and even then was largely uninterrupted by its fearsome wave. The family moved to Hotarunoshi to escape the destruction in Konoha but, other than that, were allowed to resume their lives in much the same manner as before. Their heritage did mean that they were forced to register their whereabouts with the NCIA, presumably so the organization knew where to look if they suddenly decided to start a tree-related rebellion. Other than this brief interaction, which mostly exposed the family to bureaucracy rather than violence, they had little to do with the invading force that had taken over the shinobi world.

When finally the world returned to some form of normalcy, the family moved back to Konohagakure no Sato and helped in the efforts to rebuild it. Hīragi and her brother resumed their respective activities, with Kobushi having an eye on the highest prize at the upcoming international gymnastics meet. The boy was talented, and pushed himself to the limits regularly in hopes of scoring the top prize, something he was expected to win easily. Hīragi, meanwhile, had recently been offered a contract to join an internationally renowned touring dance company. She was set to depart for the land of Birds on the day that Kobushi fell. He did not get up.

At first the young man's prognosis was optimistic. He had fallen from a great height, but doctors were confident in his strength and youth. Eventually, though, they had to admit that he was a lost cause. Kobushi had hit his head and broken his neck, resulting in both paralysis and severely crippling his cognitive abilities. In a flash, he had gone from being a promising young talent to a vegetable. The brother Hīragi had known, who had driven her to succeed from day one, was nothing more than a shell of his former self. He had to be bathed, fed and wheeled around like a small baby. What few attempts he made to communicate were garbled and nonsensical.

Kobushi’s injuries felt like a stake through Hīragi’s heart. When the doctors were unable to fix his condition, she drove herself mad attempting her own medical research. The girl’s understanding of Ninjutsu was rudimentary at best but she truly believed it was the answer to her brother’s problems, and that the doctors at Hinata Hospital simply were not trying hard enough. While her parents worked long hours to pay the mounting medical bills, and spent what little free time they did have caring for their stricken son, the girl made up her mind that she would be the one to cure Kobushi. She withdrew from the dance company that had offered her a position, and set about her task.

Hīragi enrolled in Konoha’s Shinobi Academy, studying hard. Ninjutsu and its required chakra control proved harder than she had anticipated, and Taijutsu was where the young Senju really seemed to flourish… much to her chagrin. By the time she graduated a few years later, the doctors were already unanimous: Kobushi would lead a short and pitiful life requiring round the clock care. She refused to believe it.

With nothing left for her to do, and no other viable way to spend her time, Hīragi took up the mantle of a Shinobi. She’d heard it was a dangerous job, but the cut of her apathy had grown sharp and cruel. The girl no longer cared.

==Combat Style==
[[Image:hiragibottom.png|thumb|right|370px|Hīragi is often known to be melancholy.]]
Hīragi is quite lazy, and not one for violence. Though her strength is great, thanks to the techniques of the Legendary Tsunade, and Haruno Sakura, the girl doesn't really throw her muscle around. She tends to hang back in battles, curing wounds and trying to stay out of trouble. The girl has yet to be forced to kill another human, but does not believe she is capable. Even if she were to be faced with a terrible foe, or someone who deserved to die, Hīragi would be more likely to incapacitate or arrest the offender rather than murder them.

As in life, she tends to be passive on the battlefield and yields readily to orders.
==Quotes==
:*''"I will save you, dear brother."''<br>
:*''"What a bother..."''<br>

==Trivia==
::''General Knowledge Available to Public; IC''
:* Hīragi used to be a ballerina, and had been scouted to join a prestigious dance company before becoming a Shinobi.
:* The family has three cats: Icchan, Niichan and Sacchan, named in birth order.

::''Private Knowledge; OOC''
:* Hīragi means "Holly," and all of her other family members are named after some sort of tree.
:* She does not know that her brother's condition is incurable, and as such has still not accepted it.
:* Hīragi is incredibly unlucky in life, but sees setbacks as challenges to be overcome.
:* Thanks to medical bills, her family is incredibly poor. They get by largely thanks to the generosity of their clan, who allow them to live in their tiny home rent free.
:* Hīragi is vegan, and follows the Buddhist faith.

::''Outside the Box; OOC''
:* Hīragi failed out of the Chuunin Exams in Rai no Kuni because creator Rhapsody was too busy in real life. Womp Womp.
:* Inspiration for Hīragi comes from several sources: Nohara Rin, Tsunade, Haruno Sakura and Monks in the Bravely Default Series.

==Appearance==
'''Height:''' 5’5"<br>
'''Weight:''' 130 lbs.<br>
'''Hair Color:''' Light brown, cropped above her shoulders. <br>
'''Eye Color:''' Golden.<br>
'''Clothing:''' Hīragi most often wears loose clothing that allows freedom of movement. Most of her garments are oversized hand me downs from family members and charity shops. On missions, she wears a grey sweater and black pants under her flak vest, and a black headband on her forehead. <br>
'''Physical Description:''' Hīragi is tall and willowy, with a bony appearance and lanky arms and legs. Though graceful in her steps, she feels endlessly awkward about her boyish figure, hiding it underneath billowing and baggy clothing in neutral colors. With protruding hips, a small chest and scrawny arms, the young woman does not feel there is much to be proud of. Her feet are most often bare, perhaps contained in stirrup leggings, but she does carry around a pair of studio wraps in case they are needed. In times of harsh weather or terrain, a pair of brown, faux leather boots serve her well.

The girl’s thin hair is light brown in color, falling to her shoulders in length. Usually it is just allowed to fall freely, holding a slight wave but when the girl practices her ballet or medical Ninjutsu, she whisks it up into a top knot and out of the way. When on official business, Hīragi wears a black headband across her forehead. For missions she will typically wear a black flak vest over a gray turtleneck, black pants and brown boots. Various pouches in her vest hold a number of ninja tools and curative items. <br>

==History==
[[Image:hiragikid.png|thumb|left|370px|Senju Hīragi, Age 6]]When Hīragi was young, she danced. The expression of her feelings through the movement of her body was a means by which she felt content and complete. The young woman found meaning in the rhythm of her feet, comfort in the lithe and willowy form of her body. In the world of ballet, she felt as comfortable as a tier in the jungle. Hīragi felt as if she belonged.

Aside from her dedication to dance, a decidedly civilian past time that seemed out of place in a war-torn world, Hīragi’s childhood was normal. She was the younger of two siblings, equal in their ghostly appearance and talent for the physical arts. Kobushi, the older brother, was a talented gymnast in his own right. He had joined the national team at the age of 13, one of the youngest ever to do so and the most talented by far. It was not long until there was talk of him representing the country in international games and tournaments.

The two lived with their parents on the Senju estate in a modest row house. It was a peaceful existence, and while they all were blessed with the gifts of their ancestry, none of the four members of the family showed any willingness to become shinobi. Only Hīragi’s mother, an accomplished botanist named Inumaki, ever used the Mokuton in daily life. Her father, a factory worker, had never shown much of a penchant for anything beyond tinkering. A timid and aloof soul, Iromomiji preferred to read by the fire or play with puzzles.

This quiet life continued until the dawn of the NCIA, and even then was largely uninterrupted by its fearsome wave. The family moved to Hotarunoshi to escape the destruction in Konoha but, other than that, were allowed to resume their lives in much the same manner as before. Their heritage did mean that they were forced to register their whereabouts with the NCIA, presumably so the organization knew where to look if they suddenly decided to start a tree-related rebellion. Other than this brief interaction, which mostly exposed the family to bureaucracy rather than violence, they had little to do with the invading force that had taken over the shinobi world.

When finally the world returned to some form of normalcy, the family moved back to Konohagakure no Sato and helped in the efforts to rebuild it. Hīragi and her brother resumed their respective activities, with Kobushi having an eye on the highest prize at the upcoming international gymnastics meet. The boy was talented, and pushed himself to the limits regularly in hopes of scoring the top prize, something he was expected to win easily. Hīragi, meanwhile, had recently been offered a contract to join an internationally renowned touring dance company. She was set to depart for the land of Birds on the day that Kobushi fell. He did not get up.

At first the young man's prognosis was optimistic. He had fallen from a great height, but doctors were confident in his strength and youth. Eventually, though, they had to admit that he was a lost cause. Kobushi had hit his head and broken his neck, resulting in both paralysis and severely crippling his cognitive abilities. In a flash, he had gone from being a promising young talent to a vegetable. The brother Hīragi had known, who had driven her to succeed from day one, was nothing more than a shell of his former self. He had to be bathed, fed and wheeled around like a small baby. What few attempts he made to communicate were garbled and nonsensical.

Kobushi’s injuries felt like a stake through Hīragi’s heart. When the doctors were unable to fix his condition, she drove herself mad attempting her own medical research. The girl’s understanding of Ninjutsu was rudimentary at best but she truly believed it was the answer to her brother’s problems, and that the doctors at Hinata Hospital simply were not trying hard enough. While her parents worked long hours to pay the mounting medical bills, and spent what little free time they did have caring for their stricken son, the girl made up her mind that she would be the one to cure Kobushi. She withdrew from the dance company that had offered her a position, and set about her task.

Hīragi enrolled in Konoha’s Shinobi Academy, studying hard. Ninjutsu and its required chakra control proved harder than she had anticipated, and Taijutsu was where the young Senju really seemed to flourish… much to her chagrin. By the time she graduated a few years later, the doctors were already unanimous: Kobushi would lead a short and pitiful life requiring round the clock care. She refused to believe it.

With nothing left for her to do, and no other viable way to spend her time, Hīragi took up the mantle of a Shinobi. She’d heard it was a dangerous job, but the cut of her apathy had grown sharp and cruel. The girl no longer cared.

==Combat Style==
[[Image:hiragibottom.png|thumb|right|370px|Hīragi is often known to be melancholy.]]
Hīragi is quite lazy, and not one for violence. Though her strength is great, thanks to the techniques of the Legendary Tsunade, and Haruno Sakura, the girl doesn't really throw her muscle around. She tends to hang back in battles, curing wounds and trying to stay out of trouble. The girl has yet to be forced to kill another human, but does not believe she is capable. Even if she were to be faced with a terrible foe, or someone who deserved to die, Hīragi would be more likely to incapacitate or arrest the offender rather than murder them.

As in life, she tends to be passive on the battlefield and yields readily to orders.
==Quotes==
:*''"I will save you, dear brother."''<br>
:*''"What a bother..."''<br>

==Trivia==
::''General Knowledge Available to Public; IC''
:* Hīragi used to be a ballerina, and had been scouted to join a prestigious dance company before becoming a Shinobi.
:* The family has three cats: Icchan, Niichan and Sacchan, named in birth order.

::''Private Knowledge; OOC''
:* Hīragi means "Holly," and all of her other family members are named after some sort of tree.
:* She does not know that her brother's condition is incurable, and as such has still not accepted it.
:* Hīragi is incredibly unlucky in life, but sees setbacks as challenges to be overcome.
:* Thanks to medical bills, her family is incredibly poor. They get by largely thanks to the generosity of their clan, who allow them to live in their tiny home rent free.

::''Outside the Box; OOC''
:* Hīragi failed out of the Chuunin Exams in Rai no Kuni because creator Rhapsody was too busy in real life. Womp Womp.
:* Inspiration for Hīragi comes from several sources: Nohara Rin, Tsunade, Haruno Sakura and Monks in the Bravely Default Series.

'''Weight:''' 130 lbs.<br>
'''Hair Color:''' Light brown, cropped above her shoulders. <br>
'''Eye Color:''' Golden.<br>
'''Clothing:''' Hīragi most often wears loose clothing that allows freedom of movement. Most of her garments are oversized hand me downs from family members and charity shops. On missions, she wears a grey sweater and black pants under her flak vest, and a black headband on her forehead. <br>
'''Physical Description:''' Hīragi is tall and willowy, with a bony appearance and lanky arms and legs. Though graceful in her steps, she feels endlessly awkward about her boyish figure, hiding it underneath billowing and baggy clothing in neutral colors. With protruding hips, a small chest and scrawny arms, the young woman does not feel there is much to be proud of. Her feet are most often bare, perhaps contained in stirrup leggings, but she does carry around a pair of studio wraps in case they are needed. In times of harsh weather or terrain, a pair of brown, faux leather boots serve her well.

The girl’s thin hair is light brown in color, falling to her shoulders in length. Usually it is just allowed to fall freely, holding a slight wave but when the girl practices her ballet or medical Ninjutsu, she whisks it up into a top knot and out of the way. When on official business, Hīragi wears a black headband across her forehead. For missions she will typically wear a black flak vest over a gray turtleneck, black pants and brown boots. Various pouches in her vest hold a number of ninja tools and curative items. <br>

==History==
[[Image:hiragikid.png|thumb|left|370px|Senju Hīragi, Age 6]]When Hīragi was young, she danced. The expression of her feelings through the movement of her body was a means by which she felt content and complete. The young woman found meaning in the rhythm of her feet, comfort in the lithe and willowy form of her body. In the world of ballet, she felt as comfortable as a tier in the jungle. Hīragi felt as if she belonged.

Aside from her dedication to dance, a decidedly civilian past time that seemed out of place in a war-torn world, Hīragi’s childhood was normal. She was the younger of two siblings, equal in their ghostly appearance and talent for the physical arts. Kobushi, the older brother, was a talented gymnast in his own right. He had joined the national team at the age of 13, one of the youngest ever to do so and the most talented by far. It was not long until there was talk of him representing the country in international games and tournaments.

The two lived with their parents on the Senju estate in a modest row house. It was a peaceful existence, and while they all were blessed with the gifts of their ancestry, none of the four members of the family showed any willingness to become shinobi. Only Hīragi’s mother, an accomplished botanist named Inumaki, ever used the Mokuton in daily life. Her father, a factory worker, had never shown much of a penchant for anything beyond tinkering. A timid and aloof soul, Iromomiji preferred to read by the fire or play with puzzles.

This quiet life continued until the dawn of the NCIA, and even then was largely uninterrupted by its fearsome wave. The family moved to Hotarunoshi to escape the destruction in Konoha but, other than that, were allowed to resume their lives in much the same manner as before. Their heritage did mean that they were forced to register their whereabouts with the NCIA, presumably so the organization knew where to look if they suddenly decided to start a tree-related rebellion. Other than this brief interaction, which mostly exposed the family to bureaucracy rather than violence, they had little to do with the invading force that had taken over the shinobi world.

When finally the world returned to some form of normalcy, the family moved back to Konohagakure no Sato and helped in the efforts to rebuild it. Hīragi and her brother resumed their respective activities, with Kobushi having an eye on the highest prize at the upcoming international gymnastics meet. The boy was talented, and pushed himself to the limits regularly in hopes of scoring the top prize, something he was expected to win easily. Hīragi, meanwhile, had recently been offered a contract to join an internationally renowned touring dance company. She was set to depart for the land of Birds on the day that Kobushi fell. He did not get up.

At first the young man's prognosis was optimistic. He had fallen from a great height, but doctors were confident in his strength and youth. Eventually, though, they had to admit that he was a lost cause. Kobushi had hit his head and broken his neck, resulting in both paralysis and severely crippling his cognitive abilities. In a flash, he had gone from being a promising young talent to a vegetable. The brother Hīragi had known, who had driven her to succeed from day one, was nothing more than a shell of his former self. He had to be bathed, fed and wheeled around like a small baby. What few attempts he made to communicate were garbled and nonsensical.

Kobushi’s injuries felt like a stake through Hīragi’s heart. When the doctors were unable to fix his condition, she drove herself mad attempting her own medical research. The girl’s understanding of Ninjutsu was rudimentary at best but she truly believed it was the answer to her brother’s problems, and that the doctors at Hinata Hospital simply were not trying hard enough. While her parents worked long hours to pay the mounting medical bills, and spent what little free time they did have caring for their stricken son, the girl made up her mind that she would be the one to cure Kobushi. She withdrew from the dance company that had offered her a position, and set about her task.

Hīragi enrolled in Konoha’s Shinobi Academy, studying hard. Ninjutsu and its required chakra control proved harder than she had anticipated, and Taijutsu was where the young Senju really seemed to flourish… much to her chagrin. By the time she graduated a few years later, the doctors were already unanimous: Kobushi would lead a short and pitiful life requiring round the clock care. She refused to believe it.

With nothing left for her to do, and no other viable way to spend her time, Hīragi took up the mantle of a Shinobi. She’d heard it was a dangerous job, but the cut of her apathy had grown sharp and cruel. The girl no longer cared.

==Combat Style==
[[Image:hiragibottom.png|thumb|right|370px|Hīragi is often known to be melancholy.]]
Hīragi is quite lazy, and not one for violence. Though her strength is great, thanks to the techniques of the Legendary Tsunade, and Haruno Sakura, the girl doesn't really throw her muscle around. She tends to hang back in battles, curing wounds and trying to stay out of trouble. The girl has yet to be forced to kill another human, but does not believe she is capable. Even if she were to be faced with a terrible foe, or someone who deserved to die, Hīragi would be more likely to incapacitate or arrest the offender rather than murder them.

As in life, she tends to be passive on the battlefield and yields readily to orders.

Honda Kitakaze is a Jounin from [[Yuki no Kuni]] who loyally serves [[Iwagakure no Sato]] and wields an axe. She is active in promoting equality within [[Tsuchi no Kuni]]'s Military and visits civilian schools in order to drum up female applicants. The young woman dreams of serving on the [[Tsuchikage]]'s personal guard, and hopes to one day hold political office.
==Summary==
:'''Clan:''' None<br>
:'''Village:''' [[Iwagakure no Sato]]<br>
:'''Nationality:''' [[Yuki no Kuni]]<br>
:'''Age:''' 23<br>
:'''Gender:''' Female<br>
:'''Sexuality:''' Straight

==Appearance==
:'''Height:''' 5'8’’<br>
:'''Weight:''' 140 lbs<br>
:'''Hair:''' Long, bonde.<br>
:'''Eyes:''' Sky Blue.<br>

Kitakaze is a tall, slender woman with a muscular frame and long blonde hair. Hers is a body with many scars, though it does not seem to sully her self-image. She carries herself with a confident might, a smile always about her lips and a sassy swing to her steps. This is not a woman one would think to trifle with lightly.

The woman wears a simple outfit most days: a light blue bustier, a pair of grey gloves, and light colored pants tucked into white boots. Her Jounin vest is black in color, emblazoned on the back with an embroidered wolf head in silver. Most often, the woman also carries her weapon, the finely crafted Tōshō, on one shoulder. Though it is an incredibly heavy weapon, she does not seem to be bothered by it at all. Around her waist, in homage to her title, Kitakaze wears a white wolf pelt, with its tail hanging in the back as if it were her own.

Although it is impractical, Kitakaze can often be found with a layer of make up on her face – usually just foundation, mascara and light blue eyeshadow to accent her eyes. In addition, her hair is always well groomed and her ninja gear is never creased, unpolished or sullied. It seems the woman is attentive toward her appearance and is careful to always look presentable.

When attending to her civilian duties, Kitakaze most often wears a grey or black skirt suit with a structured blazer and a lightly colored blouse. Galas and events find her in luxurious kimonos and even Metropolis style evening gowns and dresses, usually in either navy or light blue. Off duty, it is common to find Kitakaze wearing athletic gear such as leggings, tees and sweatpants. These outfits are often a far cry from the structured and detailed attire she normally opts for, and points towards the fact that Kitakaze cares more about the practicality and function of an outfit than the style. She wears what is appropriate for her current situation and not much more.
==Personality==

:'''Likes:''' Flying in Airships, Gennin, PR Campaigns’’<br>
:'''Dislikes:''' Cowardice, Sushi<br>

Confidence radiates from Kitakaze in waves, namely from her somewhat lopsided and playful smile. She is not usually one to back down from a challenge or allow herself to be called a coward, though is mindful of her limits and finds greater honour in patience than foolhardiness. While it may cause her distress to show her back, the Jounin knows that a new day is far more important than a chance at glory.

Kitakaze, though loathe to be humble about her own accomplishments, is quick to lift others up and finds great joy in teaching at the Iwagakure Academy and training young Gennin. She is a popular mentor and idol among young Kunoichi, and has participated in many PR campaigns in Iwagakure in order to help recruit more women into the life of a Ninja, where they are majorly underrepresented.

While Kitakaze’s devotion to Iwagakure is strong and true, she is still quite arrogant and self-assured. In addition, she often takes on selfish tendencies. Though she may complete tasks without complaint, no matter how small, she is often preoccupied with how her missions and her actions will reflect back on herself. One of her greatest preoccupations in life is how “The Legend of the White Wolf” will be remembered. These selfish thoughts are something she trains hard to rid herself of, though it is hard to combat one’s own ego.

In her personal life, Kitakaze is a bookworm with a penchant for interior design. Those who know her in her line of work might be surprised to visit her in her apartment, where she mostly spends her time reading books, lounging around in her pyjamas and experimenting in the kitchen. Though she campaigns heavily for women in her field, her habits are quite… domestic and typical: baking, sewing and pressing flowers that her mother sends her from Metropolis. The woman is not one for clubbing, shopping or other activities of the sort, and mostly keeps to herself in her off time.

==History==
[[Image:kitakid.png|thumb|left|320px|Kitakaze, Age 8]]
Kitakaze had what one could describe as a normal childhood. She was born in Yuki no Kuni and immigrated with her parents when she was only a few months old, settling in Metropolis for a short time. Her parents were not ninja themselves, but moved to Iwagakure when Kitakaze’s older sister came of age so that she could join the Academy. It was this move that set Kitakaze on the path toward her future career, and one she will remain thankful for.

The girl was an unremarkable student for the most part, aside from her affinity toward Snow Ninjutsu. She scored in the middle of the pack for testing, and seemed to have been destined for a very “average” career as a Shinobi. This career, though, was almost halted by the [[Akatsuki]] Invasion of 2104 and 2105. Although she was not injured in the invasion, its impact was not lost on her. In the early days of Akatsuki’s rule, they torched the [[Alchem]] Clan down to the last child and killed her best friend, Alchem Reiko. This was Kitakaze’s first encounter with death, and she still visits the Alchem Clan memorial often, leaving gifts of flowers and ensuring the area is kept clean.

When [[Alchem Syaoran]] and his team finally freed the village from Akatsuki, with the help of his [[Konohagakureno Sato]] team, Kitakaze’s career as a Shinobi began. Her civilian parents had encouraged her despite the lasting scars from Akatsuki, but urged the young woman to be grateful for what she had and not seek out more. They feared that a desire for recognition would drive their daughter to danger, and that was something they simply could not bear. The genocide of the Alchem Clan had taught them a lesson they would not soon forget- that the life of a Shinobi was fraught with danger and heartache, even when one’s actions were pure and just.

Fate, though, had many things in mind for Kitakaze that her parents would not like. When the [[NCIA]] took over, Kitakaze was quick to join the resistance and fight for her country. Though it would take many years for the war to be over, it was in the resistance that the woman, a Chuunin at the time, picked up an axe for the first time and discovered that she was, in short, a natural. The weight and heft of the weapon was something she had always longed for, finding that swords and lances were much too fragile and light. She trained in the use of large, heavy axes, clubs and hammers and became known for her use of them.

When, finally, the NCIA was wiped from the earth and the Hidden Stone crowned its new Kage, Kitakaze resumed active duty as a Chuunin. It was during this period that she earned her title as The White Wolf, her white-blonde hair and mastery over the art of snow serving to inspire it. She was a skilled fighter and a natural leader, with a keen eye for strategy and a penchant for bringing her teams home without a scratch. Though her average combat ability had thus far failed to grab the attention of her superiors, they became impressed when she began to lead teams of Gennin and help out at the Academy, finding that her skills as a leader to be remarkable.

Growing tensions between the Countries of Earth and Snow, having worsened since the invasion of the Hidden Village, cast doubt on Kitakaze and the rest of her family. As the two nations geared up for war following the [[Tsuchi Yuki Aggression Declaration]], Kitakaze found her mission assignment drying up and was subjected to a great deal of bullying from other Chuunin. Her sister also dealt with a great deal of harassment and, when she gave birth to twin boys in the spring of 2114, she simply stepped down from her job as a Kunoichi instead of accepting maternity leave. Fubiki, her husband, and the two girl's parents eventually moved to [[Metropolis]] during this time in order to escape the critical eye of the Hidden Village.

At this point, Kitakaze was alone. She had refused to give up her job as a Shinobi no matter what the cost. She had seen the cruelty of war, and vowed that she would do her best to prevent what had happened to the Alchem Clan from happening again. She persisted in the face of her sorrow, never once breaking her loyal smile even as her assignments were slowly diminished to that of a Gennin. Though it was agony to be treated with such cruelty by the country she loved, and had come to think of as her own, the White Wolf continued without pause. She kept her head up and did not step out of line even for a moment.

The moment of Kitakaze’s retribution came in the first days of 2115, in the way of the [[Iwate-Ichinohe Tunnel Disaster]]. A train filled with holiday travellers was bound for the small city of Ichinohe when part of the Iwate-Ichinohe Tunnel collapsed. Because of the time of year, and the escalating tension on the Yuki border, few shinobi were able to assist immediately. This lead to Kitakaze being given command of a small team, with orders to defer to their superiors once Iwagakure was able to send a higher ranked Jounin team to assist them. Despite the relatively low level of her six-man team, and the fact that the first 24 hours brought only civilian search and rescue teams to support them, Kitakaze was able to take charge of the situation. Although 12 lives were lost in the collapse, the coordinated efforts of the six-man team lead by Kitakaze managed to rescue 164 survivors.

In the aftermath of the collapse, the city of Ichinohe honoured all of the rescuers with commendations for their bravery. What came next for Kitakaze, though, was far more precious than any award. After a local newspaper quoted her saying that her dedication toward the rescue effort and her continued Shinobi career came from her love of Tsuchi no Kuni and its people, her peers began to see passed her heritage and accept her for the woman that she really was. Following this incident, Kitakaze was reassigned to regular duties and eventually promoted to Jounin in the Fall of 2115 due to her participation in squashing the Yokai invasion of Metropolis during the after party.

Because Kitakaze did not join the I.A.F., she did not participate in the four-month War of Yuki Aggression. Instead she has been developing herself as a Shinobi, and working with a nonprofit organization that seeks to increase the number of women taking part in Shinobi life. Her number one goal, though, remains: becoming a member of the Tsuchikage’s personal guard. This goal recently suffered a blow when she was not chosen to travel to the Rai no Kuni Chuunin exams as a part of Tsuchi no Kuni’s envoy, but Kitakaze’s determination has not wavered.

==Weapon: Tōshō | 凍傷 | Frostbite==
[[Image:tosho.png|thumb|right|320px|Tōshō, The White Wolf's Fang]]
Tōshō is an axe forged from metal mined in the Northern border region of Yuki no Kuni and Tsuchi no Kuni, in an ore-bearing mountain range known as Hakkōda-sankei. The mountains are both culturally and spiritually significant to the native population that calls them home, though the modern age has seen the image of the Hakkōda-sankei range shift from a place of worship to a source of profit.

The axe its self is of luxurious construction, with a polished wooden handle, a soft purple strap for storage and gold accents to add to its beauty. It it obvious from the well-appointed details that Tōshō was lovingly crafted, from the steel that forms its blade to the chakra that was imbued within its form, filling it with deadly promise. It is this chakra that lends the axe its name, for the blade is icy to the touch even on the most sweltering of days.

Despite its fine construction, and spiritually significant components, the Tōshō is not a weapon of great historical importance, or the subject of lore and fairy tales. It was previously a piece of fine art, deadly in its construction but useless in its destiny. Kitakaze recognized its strength, and the heritage of its materials, and purchased it for use as her main combat weapon. Axes are not normally the fare of Shinobi, who tend to lean toward Katanas and other lightweight weaponry. However, the brute strength of the axe coupled with its unique ability to drain the body attracted Kitakaze toward the unique weapon.

==Combat Abilities==
Honda Kitakaze is proficient in all three of the basic disciplines, as well as Weapon Type techniques that blend both Taijutsu and Ninjutsu. She is not as physically strong as other weapon or Taijutsu specialists, nor is she as cunning or opportunistic as Masters of Genjutsu. She is more of a "Jack of All Trades," and her true abilities lie in leadership and team work. She is able to use her talents strategically in mission and in battle in order to bring herself and her comrades home safely.

==Trivia==

:* ''Kitakaze means "North Wind"''
:* ''Kitakaze LOVES "Desert Dramas," dramatic television shows originating from the Country of Wind that center mostly around vapid love stories.''
:* ''Kitakaze's hate for sushi comes from an incident in which her entire family came down with food poisoning after a grand sushi dinner to honor her promotion to Chuunin. None in the family have eaten it since.''
:* ''Kitakaze's weapon, Tōshō, is not one of historical significance. It is her hope that she can one day become its legend.''
:* ''Creator Rhapsody drives a Ford.''
:* ''When Kitakaze thinks about retiring from shinobi life, her sights turn toward a political career. She hopes that bringing women into military and political leadership will help diversify and strengthen the Country of Earth in a manner close to that of the Airships.''

==Quotes==

:* ''"My heritage is not what matters. What matters is my choice, and I have chosen Iwagakure." (Statement to the Ichinohe Gazette following the Ichinohe-Iwate Train disaster)''
:* ''"Men make up nearly 85% of the military force in the Country of Earth. Imagine the untapped potential. If we do not engage women, we lose!" (Excerpt from her address to the "Twenty Five" Summit, an initiate to increase the representation of women in Tsuchi no Kuni's military to 25%)''

Honda Kitakaze is a Jounin from [[Yuki no Kuni]] who loyally serves [[Iwagakure no Sato]] and wields an axe. She is active in promoting equality within [[Tsuchi no Kuni]]'s Military and visits civilian schools in order to drum up female applicants. The young woman dreams of serving on the [[Tsuchikage]]'s personal guard, and hopes to one day hold political office.
==Summary==
:'''Clan:''' None<br>
:'''Village:''' [[Iwagakure no Sato]]<br>
:'''Nationality:''' [[Yuki no Kuni]]<br>
:'''Age:''' 23<br>
:'''Gender:''' Female<br>
:'''Sexuality:''' Straight

==Appearance==
:'''Height:''' 5'8’’<br>
:'''Weight:''' 140 lbs<br>
:'''Hair:''' Long, bonde.<br>
:'''Eyes:''' Sky Blue.<br>

Kitakaze is a tall, slender woman with a muscular frame and long blonde hair. Hers is a body with many scars, though it does not seem to sully her self-image. She carries herself with a confident might, a smile always about her lips and a sassy swing to her steps. This is not a woman one would think to trifle with lightly.

The woman wears a simple outfit most days: a light blue bustier, a pair of grey gloves, and light colored pants tucked into white boots. Her Jounin vest is black in color, emblazoned on the back with an embroidered wolf head in silver. Most often, the woman also carries her weapon, the finely crafted Tōshō, on one shoulder. Though it is an incredibly heavy weapon, she does not seem to be bothered by it at all. Around her waist, in homage to her title, Kitakaze wears a white wolf pelt, with its tail hanging in the back as if it were her own.

Although it is impractical, Kitakaze can often be found with a layer of make up on her face – usually just foundation, mascara and light blue eyeshadow to accent her eyes. In addition, her hair is always well groomed and her ninja gear is never creased, unpolished or sullied. It seems the woman is attentive toward her appearance and is careful to always look presentable.

When attending to her civilian duties, Kitakaze most often wears a grey or black skirt suit with a structured blazer and a lightly colored blouse. Galas and events find her in luxurious kimonos and even Metropolis style evening gowns and dresses, usually in either navy or light blue. Off duty, it is common to find Kitakaze wearing athletic gear such as leggings, tees and sweatpants. These outfits are often a far cry from the structured and detailed attire she normally opts for, and points towards the fact that Kitakaze cares more about the practicality and function of an outfit than the style. She wears what is appropriate for her current situation and not much more.
==Personality==

:'''Likes:''' Flying in Airships, Gennin, PR Campaigns’’<br>
:'''Dislikes:''' Cowardice, Sushi<br>

Confidence radiates from Kitakaze in waves, namely from her somewhat lopsided and playful smile. She is not usually one to back down from a challenge or allow herself to be called a coward, though is mindful of her limits and finds greater honour in patience than foolhardiness. While it may cause her distress to show her back, the Jounin knows that a new day is far more important than a chance at glory.

Kitakaze, though loathe to be humble about her own accomplishments, is quick to lift others up and finds great joy in teaching at the Iwagakure Academy and training young Gennin. She is a popular mentor and idol among young Kunoichi, and has participated in many PR campaigns in Iwagakure in order to help recruit more women into the life of a Ninja, where they are majorly underrepresented.

While Kitakaze’s devotion to Iwagakure is strong and true, she is still quite arrogant and self-assured. In addition, she often takes on selfish tendencies. Though she may complete tasks without complaint, no matter how small, she is often preoccupied with how her missions and her actions will reflect back on herself. One of her greatest preoccupations in life is how “The Legend of the White Wolf” will be remembered. These selfish thoughts are something she trains hard to rid herself of, though it is hard to combat one’s own ego.

In her personal life, Kitakaze is a bookworm with a penchant for interior design. Those who know her in her line of work might be surprised to visit her in her apartment, where she mostly spends her time reading books, lounging around in her pyjamas and experimenting in the kitchen. Though she campaigns heavily for women in her field, her habits are quite… domestic and typical: baking, sewing and pressing flowers that her mother sends her from Metropolis. The woman is not one for clubbing, shopping or other activities of the sort, and mostly keeps to herself in her off time.

==History==
[[Image:kitakid.png|thumb|left|320px|Kitakaze, Age 8]]
Kitakaze had what one could describe as a normal childhood. She was born in Yuki no Kuni and immigrated with her parents when she was only a few months old, settling in Metropolis for a short time. Her parents were not ninja themselves, but moved to Iwagakure when Kitakaze’s older sister came of age so that she could join the Academy. It was this move that set Kitakaze on the path toward her future career, and one she will remain thankful for.

The girl was an unremarkable student for the most part, aside from her affinity toward Snow Ninjutsu. She scored in the middle of the pack for testing, and seemed to have been destined for a very “average” career as a Shinobi. This career, though, was almost halted by the [[Akatsuki]] Invasion of 2104 and 2105. Although she was not injured in the invasion, its impact was not lost on her. In the early days of Akatsuki’s rule, they torched the [[Alchem]] Clan down to the last child and killed her best friend, Alchem Reiko. This was Kitakaze’s first encounter with death, and she still visits the Alchem Clan memorial often, leaving gifts of flowers and ensuring the area is kept clean.

When [[Alchem Syaoran]] and his team finally freed the village from Akatsuki, with the help of his [[Konohagakureno Sato]] team, Kitakaze’s career as a Shinobi began. Her civilian parents had encouraged her despite the lasting scars from Akatsuki, but urged the young woman to be grateful for what she had and not seek out more. They feared that a desire for recognition would drive their daughter to danger, and that was something they simply could not bear. The genocide of the Alchem Clan had taught them a lesson they would not soon forget- that the life of a Shinobi was fraught with danger and heartache, even when one’s actions were pure and just.

Fate, though, had many things in mind for Kitakaze that her parents would not like. When the [[NCIA]] took over, Kitakaze was quick to join the resistance and fight for her country. Though it would take many years for the war to be over, it was in the resistance that the woman, a Chuunin at the time, picked up an axe for the first time and discovered that she was, in short, a natural. The weight and heft of the weapon was something she had always longed for, finding that swords and lances were much too fragile and light. She trained in the use of large, heavy axes, clubs and hammers and became known for her use of them.

When, finally, the NCIA was wiped from the earth and the Hidden Stone crowned its new Kage, Kitakaze resumed active duty as a Chuunin. It was during this period that she earned her title as The White Wolf, her white-blonde hair and mastery over the art of snow serving to inspire it. She was a skilled fighter and a natural leader, with a keen eye for strategy and a penchant for bringing her teams home without a scratch. Though her average combat ability had thus far failed to grab the attention of her superiors, they became impressed when she began to lead teams of Gennin and help out at the Academy, finding that her skills as a leader to be remarkable.

Growing tensions between the Countries of Earth and Snow, having worsened since the invasion of the Hidden Village, cast doubt on Kitakaze and the rest of her family. As the two nations geared up for war following the [[Tsuchi Yuki Aggression Declaration]], Kitakaze found her mission assignment drying up and was subjected to a great deal of bullying from other Chuunin. Her sister also dealt with a great deal of harassment and, when she gave birth to twin boys in the spring of 2114, she simply stepped down from her job as a Kunoichi instead of accepting maternity leave. Fubiki, her husband, and the two girl's parents eventually moved to [[Metropolis]] during this time in order to escape the critical eye of the Hidden Village.

At this point, Kitakaze was alone. She had refused to give up her job as a Shinobi no matter what the cost. She had seen the cruelty of war, and vowed that she would do her best to prevent what had happened to the Alchem Clan from happening again. She persisted in the face of her sorrow, never once breaking her loyal smile even as her assignments were slowly diminished to that of a Gennin. Though it was agony to be treated with such cruelty by the country she loved, and had come to think of as her own, the White Wolf continued without pause. She kept her head up and did not step out of line even for a moment.

The moment of Kitakaze’s retribution came in the first days of 2115, in the way of the [[Iwate-Ichinohe Tunnel Disaster]]. A train filled with holiday travellers was bound for the small city of Ichinohe when part of the Iwate-Ichinohe Tunnel collapsed. Because of the time of year, and the escalating tension on the Yuki border, few shinobi were able to assist immediately. This lead to Kitakaze being given command of a small team, with orders to defer to their superiors once Iwagakure was able to send a higher ranked Jounin team to assist them. Despite the relatively low level of her six-man team, and the fact that the first 24 hours brought only civilian search and rescue teams to support them, Kitakaze was able to take charge of the situation. Although 12 lives were lost in the collapse, the coordinated efforts of the six-man team lead by Kitakaze managed to rescue 164 survivors.

In the aftermath of the collapse, the city of Ichinohe honoured all of the rescuers with commendations for their bravery. What came next for Kitakaze, though, was far more precious than any award. After a local newspaper quoted her saying that her dedication toward the rescue effort and her continued Shinobi career came from her love of Tsuchi no Kuni and its people, her peers began to see passed her heritage and accept her for the woman that she really was. Following this incident, Kitakaze was reassigned to regular duties and eventually promoted to Jounin in the Fall of 2115 due to her participation in squashing the Yokai invasion of Metropolis during the after party.

Because Kitakaze did not join the I.A.F., she did not participate in the four-month War of Yuki Aggression. Instead she has been developing herself as a Shinobi, and working with a nonprofit organization that seeks to increase the number of women taking part in Shinobi life. Her number one goal, though, remains: becoming a member of the Tsuchikage’s personal guard. This goal recently suffered a blow when she was not chosen to travel to the Rai no Kuni Chuunin exams as a part of Tsuchi no Kuni’s envoy, but Kitakaze’s determination has not wavered.

==Weapon: Tōshō | 凍傷 | Frostbite==
[[Image:tosho.png|thumb|right|320px|Tōshō, The White Wolf's Fang]]
Tōshō is an axe forged from metal mined in the Northern border region of Yuki no Kuni and Tsuchi no Kuni, in an ore-bearing mountain range known as Hakkōda-sankei. The mountains are both culturally and spiritually significant to the native population that calls them home, though the modern age has seen the image of the Hakkōda-sankei range shift from a place of worship to a source of profit.

The axe its self is of luxurious construction, with a polished wooden handle, a soft purple strap for storage and gold accents to add to its beauty. It it obvious from the well-appointed details that Tōshō was lovingly crafted, from the steel that forms its blade to the chakra that was imbued within its form, filling it with deadly promise. It is this chakra that lends the axe its name, for the blade is icy to the touch even on the most sweltering of days.

Despite its fine construction, and spiritually significant components, the Tōshō is not a weapon of great historical importance, or the subject of lore and fairy tales. It was previously a piece of fine art, deadly in its construction but useless in its destiny. Kitakaze recognized its strength, and the heritage of its materials, and purchased it for use as her main combat weapon. Axes are not normally the fare of Shinobi, who tend to lean toward Katanas and other lightweight weaponry. However, the brute strength of the axe coupled with its unique ability to drain the body attracted Kitakaze toward the unique weapon.

==Combat Abilities==
Honda Kitakaze is proficient in all three of the basic disciplines, as well as Weapon Type techniques that blend both Taijutsu and Ninjutsu. She is not as physically strong as other weapon or Taijutsu specialists, nor is she as cunning or opportunistic as Masters of Genjutsu. She is more of a "Jack of All Trades," and her true abilities lie in leadership and team work. She is able to use her talents strategically in mission and in battle in order to bring herself and her comrades home safely.

==Trivia==

:* ''Kitakaze means "North Wind"''
:* ''Kitakaze's hate for sushi comes from an incident in which her entire family came down with food poisoning after a grand sushi dinner to honor her promotion to Chuunin. None in the family have eaten it since.''
:* ''Kitakaze's weapon, Tōshō, is not one of historical significance. It is her hope that she can one day become its legend.''
:* ''Creator Rhapsody drives a Ford.''
:* ''When Kitakaze thinks about retiring from shinobi life, her sights turn toward a political career. She hopes that bringing women into military and political leadership will help diversify and strengthen the Country of Earth in a manner close to that of the Airships.''

==Quotes==

:* ''"My heritage is not what matters. What matters is my choice, and I have chosen Iwagakure." (Statement to the Ichinohe Gazette following the Ichinohe-Iwate Train disaster)''
:* ''"Men make up nearly 85% of the military force in the Country of Earth. Imagine the untapped potential. If we do not engage women, we lose!" (Excerpt from her address to the "Twenty Five" Summit, an initiate to increase the representation of women in Tsuchi no Kuni's military to 25%)''

Honda Kitakaze is a Jounin from [[Yuki no Kuni]] who loyally serves [[Iwagakure no Sato]] and wields an axe. She is active in promoting equality within [[Tsuchi no Kuni]]'s Military and visits civilian schools in order to drum up female applicants. The young woman dreams of serving on the [[Tsuchikage]]'s personal guard, and hopes to one day hold political office.
==Summary==
:'''Clan:''' None<br>
:'''Village:''' [[Iwagakure no Sato]]<br>
:'''Nationality:''' [[Yuki no Kuni]]<br>
:'''Age:''' 23<br>
:'''Gender:''' Female<br>
:'''Sexuality:''' Straight

==Appearance==
:'''Height:''' 5'8’’<br>
:'''Weight:''' 140 lbs<br>
:'''Hair:''' Long, bonde.<br>
:'''Eyes:''' Sky Blue.<br>

Kitakaze is a tall, slender woman with a muscular frame and long blonde hair. Hers is a body with many scars, though it does not seem to sully her self-image. She carries herself with a confident might, a smile always about her lips and a sassy swing to her steps. This is not a woman one would think to trifle with lightly.

The woman wears a simple outfit most days: a light blue bustier, a pair of grey gloves, and light colored pants tucked into white boots. Her Jounin vest is black in color, emblazoned on the back with an embroidered wolf head in silver. Most often, the woman also carries her weapon, the finely crafted Tōshō, on one shoulder. Though it is an incredibly heavy weapon, she does not seem to be bothered by it at all. Around her waist, in homage to her title, Kitakaze wears a white wolf pelt, with its tail hanging in the back as if it were her own.

Although it is impractical, Kitakaze can often be found with a layer of make up on her face – usually just foundation, mascara and light blue eyeshadow to accent her eyes. In addition, her hair is always well groomed and her ninja gear is never creased, unpolished or sullied. It seems the woman is attentive toward her appearance and is careful to always look presentable.

When attending to her civilian duties, Kitakaze most often wears a grey or black skirt suit with a structured blazer and a lightly colored blouse. Galas and events find her in luxurious kimonos and even Metropolis style evening gowns and dresses, usually in either navy or light blue. Off duty, it is common to find Kitakaze wearing athletic gear such as leggings, tees and sweatpants. These outfits are often a far cry from the structured and detailed attire she normally opts for, and points towards the fact that Kitakaze cares more about the practicality and function of an outfit than the style. She wears what is appropriate for her current situation and not much more.
==Personality==

:'''Likes:''' Flying in Airships, Gennin, PR Campaigns’’<br>
:'''Dislikes:''' Cowardice, Sushi<br>

Confidence radiates from Kitakaze in waves, namely from her somewhat lopsided and playful smile. She is not usually one to back down from a challenge or allow herself to be called a coward, though is mindful of her limits and finds greater honour in patience than foolhardiness. While it may cause her distress to show her back, the Jounin knows that a new day is far more important than a chance at glory.

Kitakaze, though loathe to be humble about her own accomplishments, is quick to lift others up and finds great joy in teaching at the Iwagakure Academy and training young Gennin. She is a popular mentor and idol among young Kunoichi, and has participated in many PR campaigns in Iwagakure in order to help recruit more women into the life of a Ninja, where they are majorly underrepresented.

While Kitakaze’s devotion to Iwagakure is strong and true, she is still quite arrogant and self-assured. In addition, she often takes on selfish tendencies. Though she may complete tasks without complaint, no matter how small, she is often preoccupied with how her missions and her actions will reflect back on herself. One of her greatest preoccupations in life is how “The Legend of the White Wolf” will be remembered. These selfish thoughts are something she trains hard to rid herself of, though it is hard to combat one’s own ego.

In her personal life, Kitakaze is a bookworm with a penchant for interior design. Those who know her in her line of work might be surprised to visit her in her apartment, where she mostly spends her time reading books, lounging around in her pyjamas and experimenting in the kitchen. Though she campaigns heavily for women in her field, her habits are quite… domestic and typical: baking, sewing and pressing flowers that her mother sends her from Metropolis. The woman is not one for clubbing, shopping or other activities of the sort, and mostly keeps to herself in her off time.

==History==
[[Image:kitakid.png|thumb|left|320px|Kitakaze, Age 8]]
Kitakaze had what one could describe as a normal childhood. She was born in Yuki no Kuni and immigrated with her parents when she was only a few months old, settling in Metropolis for a short time. Her parents were not ninja themselves, but moved to Iwagakure when Kitakaze’s older sister came of age so that she could join the Academy. It was this move that set Kitakaze on the path toward her future career, and one she will remain thankful for.

The girl was an unremarkable student for the most part, aside from her affinity toward Snow Ninjutsu. She scored in the middle of the pack for testing, and seemed to have been destined for a very “average” career as a Shinobi. This career, though, was almost halted by the [[Akatsuki]] Invasion of 2104 and 2105. Although she was not injured in the invasion, its impact was not lost on her. In the early days of Akatsuki’s rule, they torched the [[Alchem]] Clan down to the last child and killed her best friend, Alchem Reiko. This was Kitakaze’s first encounter with death, and she still visits the Alchem Clan memorial often, leaving gifts of flowers and ensuring the area is kept clean.

When [[Alchem Syaoran]] and his team finally freed the village from Akatsuki, with the help of his [[Konohagakureno Sato]] team, Kitakaze’s career as a Shinobi began. Her civilian parents had encouraged her despite the lasting scars from Akatsuki, but urged the young woman to be grateful for what she had and not seek out more. They feared that a desire for recognition would drive their daughter to danger, and that was something they simply could not bear. The genocide of the Alchem Clan had taught them a lesson they would not soon forget- that the life of a Shinobi was fraught with danger and heartache, even when one’s actions were pure and just.

Fate, though, had many things in mind for Kitakaze that her parents would not like. When the [[NCIA]] took over, Kitakaze was quick to join the resistance and fight for her country. Though it would take many years for the war to be over, it was in the resistance that the woman, a Chuunin at the time, picked up an axe for the first time and discovered that she was, in short, a natural. The weight and heft of the weapon was something she had always longed for, finding that swords and lances were much too fragile and light. She trained in the use of large, heavy axes, clubs and hammers and became known for her use of them.

When, finally, the NCIA was wiped from the earth and the Hidden Stone crowned its new Kage, Kitakaze resumed active duty as a Chuunin. It was during this period that she earned her title as The White Wolf, her white-blonde hair and mastery over the art of snow serving to inspire it. She was a skilled fighter and a natural leader, with a keen eye for strategy and a penchant for bringing her teams home without a scratch. Though her average combat ability had thus far failed to grab the attention of her superiors, they became impressed when she began to lead teams of Gennin and help out at the Academy, finding that her skills as a leader to be remarkable.

Growing tensions between the Countries of Earth and Snow, having worsened since the invasion of the Hidden Village, cast doubt on Kitakaze and the rest of her family. As the two nations geared up for war following the [[Tsuchi Yuki Aggression Declaration]], Kitakaze found her mission assignment drying up and was subjected to a great deal of bullying from other Chuunin. Her sister also dealt with a great deal of harassment and, when she gave birth to twin boys in the spring of 2114, she simply stepped down from her job as a Kunoichi instead of accepting maternity leave. Fubiki, her husband, and the two girl's parents eventually moved to [[Metropolis]] during this time in order to escape the critical eye of the Hidden Village.

At this point, Kitakaze was alone. She had refused to give up her job as a Shinobi no matter what the cost. She had seen the cruelty of war, and vowed that she would do her best to prevent what had happened to the Alchem Clan from happening again. She persisted in the face of her sorrow, never once breaking her loyal smile even as her assignments were slowly diminished to that of a Gennin. Though it was agony to be treated with such cruelty by the country she loved, and had come to think of as her own, the White Wolf continued without pause. She kept her head up and did not step out of line even for a moment.

The moment of Kitakaze’s retribution came in the first days of 2115, in the way of the [[Iwate-Ichinohe Tunnel Disaster]]. A train filled with holiday travellers was bound for the small city of Ichinohe when part of the Iwate-Ichinohe Tunnel collapsed. Because of the time of year, and the escalating tension on the Yuki border, few shinobi were able to assist immediately. This lead to Kitakaze being given command of a small team, with orders to defer to their superiors once Iwagakure was able to send a higher ranked Jounin team to assist them. Despite the relatively low level of her six-man team, and the fact that the first 24 hours brought only civilian search and rescue teams to support them, Kitakaze was able to take charge of the situation. Although 12 lives were lost in the collapse, the coordinated efforts of the six-man team lead by Kitakaze managed to rescue 164 survivors.

In the aftermath of the collapse, the city of Ichinohe honoured all of the rescuers with commendations for their bravery. What came next for Kitakaze, though, was far more precious than any award. After a local newspaper quoted her saying that her dedication toward the rescue effort and her continued Shinobi career came from her love of Tsuchi no Kuni and its people, her peers began to see passed her heritage and accept her for the woman that she really was. Following this incident, Kitakaze was reassigned to regular duties and eventually promoted to Jounin in the Fall of 2115 due to her participation in squashing the Yokai invasion of Metropolis during the after party.

Because Kitakaze did not join the I.A.F., she did not participate in the four-month War of Yuki Aggression. Instead she has been developing herself as a Shinobi, and working with a nonprofit organization that seeks to increase the number of women taking part in Shinobi life. Her number one goal, though, remains: becoming a member of the Tsuchikage’s personal guard. This goal recently suffered a blow when she was not chosen to travel to the Rai no Kuni Chuunin exams as a part of Tsuchi no Kuni’s envoy, but Kitakaze’s determination has not wavered.

==Weapon: Tōshō | 凍傷 | Frostbite==
[[Image:tosho.png|thumb|right|320px|Tōshō, The White Wolf's Fang]]
Tōshō is an axe forged from metal mined in the Northern border region of Yuki no Kuni and Tsuchi no Kuni, in an ore-bearing mountain range known as Hakkōda-sankei. The mountains are both culturally and spiritually significant to the native population that calls them home, though the modern age has seen the image of the Hakkōda-sankei range shift from a place of worship to a source of profit.

The axe its self is of luxurious construction, with a polished wooden handle, a soft purple strap for storage and gold accents to add to its beauty. It it obvious from the well-appointed details that Tōshō was lovingly crafted, from the steel that forms its blade to the chakra that was imbued within its form, filling it with deadly promise. It is this chakra that lends the axe its name, for the blade is icy to the touch even on the most sweltering of days.

Despite its fine construction, and spiritually significant components, the Tōshō is not a weapon of great historical importance, or the subject of lore and fairy tales. It was previously a piece of fine art, deadly in its construction but useless in its destiny. Kitakaze recognized its strength, and the heritage of its materials, and purchased it for use as her main combat weapon. Axes are not normally the fare of Shinobi, who tend to lean toward Katanas and other lightweight weaponry. However, the brute strength of the axe coupled with its unique ability to drain the body attracted Kitakaze toward the unique weapon.

==Combat Abilities==
Honda Kitakaze is proficient in all three of the basic disciplines, as well as Weapon Type techniques that blend both Taijutsu and Ninjutsu. She is not as physically strong as other weapon or Taijutsu specialists, nor is she as cunning or opportunistic as Masters of Genjutsu. She is more of a "Jack of All Trades," and her true abilities lie in leadership and team work. She is able to use her talents strategically in mission and in battle in order to bring herself and her comrades home safely.

==Trivia==

:* ''Kitakaze means "North Wind"''
:* ''Kitakaze's hate for sushi comes from an incident in which her entire family came down with food poisoning after a grand sushi dinner to honor her promotion to Chuunin. None in the family have eaten it since.''
:* ''Kitakaze's weapon, Tōshō, is not one of historical significance. It is her hope that she can one day become its legend.''
:* ''When Kitakaze thinks about retiring from shinobi life, her sights turn toward a political career. She hopes that bringing women into military and political leadership will help diversify and strengthen the Country of Earth in a manner close to that of the Airships.''

==Quotes==

:* ''"My heritage is not what matters. What matters is my choice, and I have chosen Iwagakure." (Statement to the Ichinohe Gazette following the Ichinohe-Iwate Train disaster)''
:* ''"Men make up nearly 85% of the military force in the Country of Earth. Imagine the untapped potential. If we do not engage women, we lose!" (Excerpt from her address to the "Twenty Five" Summit, an initiate to increase the representation of women in Tsuchi no Kuni's military to 25%)''

[[Image:iwatetrain.jpg|thumb|right|320px|Iwate Train No. 2910 on 4 October 2114, months before it was destroyed.]]

The Iwate-Ichinohe Tunnel Disaster occurred on 3 January, 2115 and is considered one of Tsuchi no Kuni's worst peace time disasters, and the worst train disaster in the country's history. It happened when a section of the Iwate-Ichinohe Commuter tunnel collapsed during the busy post-holiday season.

12 lives were lost in the disaster, though a rescue effort coordinated by a Chuunin, [[Honda Kitakaze]], managed to save 164 people and prevent both the towns of Ichinohe and Iwate from sending more trains into the dangerous tunnel before the rescue effort could be completed. Though terrorists, both domestic and foreign, were initially suspected of targeting the busy train tunnel, it was eventually discovered that errors in the building process were to blame. The resulting investigation, which took many months to complete, was critical of the decision by the Country's Leadership to direct so much of their forces into the raising tensions between [[Yuki no Kuni]] and [[Tsuchi no Kuni]]. Provisions were enacted that made rescue services more readily available in the event of a domestic disaster of this scale, as well as to increase the percentage of Medical Shinobi trained in the nation.

In the aftermath, local and national media alike were incredibly critical of the delayed rescue response and speculate that back up from [[Iwagakure no Sato]] or the [[Iwagakure Air Federation]] could have saved more lives. Autopsies confirmed that one woman killed actually managed to live up to 8 hours after the collapse before eventually succumbing to her wounds. Controversy remains on whether or not the Iwate-Ichinohe Tunnel Disaster is accuracelty designatd as a "peacetime" disaster as geopolitical tensions played a part in its eventual death toll.

Honda Kitakaze is a Jounin from [[Yuki no Kuni]] who loyally serves [[Iwagakure no Sato]] and wields an axe. She is active in promoting equality within [[Tsuchi no Kuni]]'s Military and visits civilian schools in order to drum up female applicants. The young woman dreams of serving on the [[Tsuchikage]]'s personal guard, and hopes to one day hold political office.
==Summary==
:'''Clan:''' None<br>
:'''Village:''' [[Iwagakure no Sato]]<br>
:'''Nationality:''' [[Yuki no Kuni]]<br>
:'''Age:''' 23<br>
:'''Gender:''' Female<br>
:'''Sexuality:''' Straight

==Appearance==
:'''Height:''' 5'8’’<br>
:'''Weight:''' 140 lbs<br>
:'''Hair:''' Long, bonde.<br>
:'''Eyes:''' Sky Blue.<br>

Kitakaze is a tall, slender woman with a muscular frame and long blonde hair. Hers is a body with many scars, though it does not seem to sully her self-image. She carries herself with a confident might, a smile always about her lips and a sassy swing to her steps. This is not a woman one would think to trifle with lightly.

The woman wears a simple outfit most days: a light blue bustier, a pair of grey gloves, and light colored pants tucked into white boots. Her Jounin vest is black in color, emblazoned on the back with an embroidered wolf head in silver. Most often, the woman also carries her weapon, the finely crafted Tōshō, on one shoulder. Though it is an incredibly heavy weapon, she does not seem to be bothered by it at all. Around her waist, in homage to her title, Kitakaze wears a white wolf pelt, with its tail hanging in the back as if it were her own.

Although it is impractical, Kitakaze can often be found with a layer of make up on her face – usually just foundation, mascara and light blue eyeshadow to accent her eyes. In addition, her hair is always well groomed and her ninja gear is never creased, unpolished or sullied. It seems the woman is attentive toward her appearance and is careful to always look presentable.

When attending to her civilian duties, Kitakaze most often wears a grey or black skirt suit with a structured blazer and a lightly colored blouse. Galas and events find her in luxurious kimonos and even Metropolis style evening gowns and dresses, usually in either navy or light blue. Off duty, it is common to find Kitakaze wearing athletic gear such as leggings, tees and sweatpants. These outfits are often a far cry from the structured and detailed attire she normally opts for, and points towards the fact that Kitakaze cares more about the practicality and function of an outfit than the style. She wears what is appropriate for her current situation and not much more.
==Personality==

:'''Likes:''' Flying in Airships, Gennin, PR Campaigns’’<br>
:'''Dislikes:''' Cowardice, Sushi<br>

Confidence radiates from Kitakaze in waves, namely from her somewhat lopsided and playful smile. She is not usually one to back down from a challenge or allow herself to be called a coward, though is mindful of her limits and finds greater honour in patience than foolhardiness. While it may cause her distress to show her back, the Jounin knows that a new day is far more important than a chance at glory.

Kitakaze, though loathe to be humble about her own accomplishments, is quick to lift others up and finds great joy in teaching at the Iwagakure Academy and training young Gennin. She is a popular mentor and idol among young Kunoichi, and has participated in many PR campaigns in Iwagakure in order to help recruit more women into the life of a Ninja, where they are majorly underrepresented.

While Kitakaze’s devotion to Iwagakure is strong and true, she is still quite arrogant and self-assured. In addition, she often takes on selfish tendencies. Though she may complete tasks without complaint, no matter how small, she is often preoccupied with how her missions and her actions will reflect back on herself. One of her greatest preoccupations in life is how “The Legend of the White Wolf” will be remembered. These selfish thoughts are something she trains hard to rid herself of, though it is hard to combat one’s own ego.

In her personal life, Kitakaze is a bookworm with a penchant for interior design. Those who know her in her line of work might be surprised to visit her in her apartment, where she mostly spends her time reading books, lounging around in her pyjamas and experimenting in the kitchen. Though she campaigns heavily for women in her field, her habits are quite… domestic and typical: baking, sewing and pressing flowers that her mother sends her from Metropolis. The woman is not one for clubbing, shopping or other activities of the sort, and mostly keeps to herself in her off time.

==History==
[[Image:kitakid.png|thumb|left|320px|Kitakaze, Age 8]]
Kitakaze had what one could describe as a normal childhood. She was born in Yuki no Kuni and immigrated with her parents when she was only a few months old, settling in Metropolis for a short time. Her parents were not ninja themselves, but moved to Iwagakure when Kitakaze’s older sister came of age so that she could join the Academy. It was this move that set Kitakaze on the path toward her future career, and one she will remain thankful for.

The girl was an unremarkable student for the most part, aside from her affinity toward Snow Ninjutsu. She scored in the middle of the pack for testing, and seemed to have been destined for a very “average” career as a Shinobi. This career, though, was almost halted by the [[Akatsuki]] Invasion of 2104 and 2105. Although she was not injured in the invasion, its impact was not lost on her. In the early days of Akatsuki’s rule, they torched the [[Alchem]] Clan down to the last child and killed her best friend, Alchem Reiko. This was Kitakaze’s first encounter with death, and she still visits the Alchem Clan memorial often, leaving gifts of flowers and ensuring the area is kept clean.

When [[Alchem Syaoran]] and his team finally freed the village from Akatsuki, with the help of his [[Konohagakureno Sato]] team, Kitakaze’s career as a Shinobi began. Her civilian parents had encouraged her despite the lasting scars from Akatsuki, but urged the young woman to be grateful for what she had and not seek out more. They feared that a desire for recognition would drive their daughter to danger, and that was something they simply could not bear. The genocide of the Alchem Clan had taught them a lesson they would not soon forget- that the life of a Shinobi was fraught with danger and heartache, even when one’s actions were pure and just.

Fate, though, had many things in mind for Kitakaze that her parents would not like. When the [[NCIA]] took over, Kitakaze was quick to join the resistance and fight for her country. Though it would take many years for the war to be over, it was in the resistance that the woman, a Chuunin at the time, picked up an axe for the first time and discovered that she was, in short, a natural. The weight and heft of the weapon was something she had always longed for, finding that swords and lances were much too fragile and light. She trained in the use of large, heavy axes, clubs and hammers and became known for her use of them.

When, finally, the NCIA was wiped from the earth and the Hidden Stone crowned its new Kage, Kitakaze resumed active duty as a Chuunin. It was during this period that she earned her title as The White Wolf, her white-blonde hair and mastery over the art of snow serving to inspire it. She was a skilled fighter and a natural leader, with a keen eye for strategy and a penchant for bringing her teams home without a scratch. Though her average combat ability had thus far failed to grab the attention of her superiors, they became impressed when she began to lead teams of Gennin and help out at the Academy, finding that her skills as a leader to be remarkable.

Growing tensions between the Countries of Earth and Snow, having worsened since the invasion of the Hidden Village, cast doubt on Kitakaze and the rest of her family. As the two nations geared up for war following the [[Tsuchi Yuki Aggression Declaration]], Kitakaze found her mission assignment drying up and was subjected to a great deal of bullying from other Chuunin. Her sister also dealt with a great deal of harassment and, when she gave birth to twin boys in the spring of 2114, she simply stepped down from her job as a Kunoichi instead of accepting maternity leave. Fubiki, her husband, and the two girl's parents eventually moved to [[Metropolis]] during this time in order to escape the critical eye of the Hidden Village.

At this point, Kitakaze was alone. She had refused to give up her job as a Shinobi no matter what the cost. She had seen the cruelty of war, and vowed that she would do her best to prevent what had happened to the Alchem Clan from happening again. She persisted in the face of her sorrow, never once breaking her loyal smile even as her assignments were slowly diminished to that of a Gennin. Though it was agony to be treated with such cruelty by the country she loved, and had come to think of as her own, the White Wolf continued without pause. She kept her head up and did not step out of line even for a moment.

The moment of Kitakaze’s retribution came in the first days of 2115, in the way of the [[Iwate-Ichinohe Tunnel Disaster]]. A train filled with holiday travellers was bound for the small city of Ichinohe when part of the Iwate-Ichinohe Tunnel collapsed. Because of the time of year, and the escalating tension on the Yuki border, few shinobi were able to assist immediately. This lead to Kitakaze being given command of a small team, with orders to defer to their superiors once Iwagakure was able to send a higher ranked Jounin team to assist them. Despite the relatively low level of her six-man team, and the fact that the first 24 hours brought only civilian search and rescue teams to support them, Kitakaze was able to take charge of the situation. Although 12 lives were lost in the collapse, the coordinated efforts of the six-man team lead by Kitakaze managed to rescue 164 survivors.

In the aftermath of the collapse, the city of Ichinohe honoured all of the rescuers with commendations for their bravery. What came next for Kitakaze, though, was far more precious than any award. After a local newspaper quoted her saying that her dedication toward the rescue effort and her continued Shinobi career came from her love of Tsuchi no Kuni and its people, her peers began to see passed her heritage and accept her for the woman that she really was. Following this incident, Kitakaze was reassigned to regular duties and eventually promoted to Jounin in the Fall of 2115 due to her participation in squashing the Yokai invasion of Metropolis during the after party.

Because Kitakaze did not join the I.A.F., she did not participate in the four-month War of Yuki Aggression. Instead she has been developing herself as a Shinobi, and working with a nonprofit organization that seeks to increase the number of women taking part in Shinobi life. Her number one goal, though, remains: becoming a member of the Tsuchikage’s personal guard. This goal recently suffered a blow when she was not chosen to travel to the Rai no Kuni Chuunin exams as a part of Tsuchi no Kuni’s envoy, but Kitakaze’s determination has not wavered.

==Weapon: Tōshō | 凍傷 | Frostbite==
[[Image:tosho.png|thumb|right|320px|Tōshō, The White Wolf's Fang]]
Tōshō is an axe forged from metal mined in the Northern border region of Yuki no Kuni and Tsuchi no Kuni, in an ore-bearing mountain range known as Hakkōda-sankei. The mountains are both culturally and spiritually significant to the native population that calls them home, though the modern age has seen the image of the Hakkōda-sankei range shift from a place of worship to a source of profit.

The axe its self is of luxurious construction, with a polished wooden handle, a soft purple strap for storage and gold accents to add to its beauty. It it obvious from the well-appointed details that Tōshō was lovingly crafted, from the steel that forms its blade to the chakra that was imbued within its form, filling it with deadly promise. It is this chakra that lends the axe its name, for the blade is icy to the touch even on the most sweltering of days.

Despite its fine construction, and spiritually significant components, the Tōshō is not a weapon of great historical importance, or the subject of lore and fairy tales. It was previously a piece of fine art, deadly in its construction but useless in its destiny. Kitakaze recognized its strength, and the heritage of its materials, and purchased it for use as her main combat weapon. Axes are not normally the fare of Shinobi, who tend to lean toward Katanas and other lightweight weaponry. However, the brute strength of the axe coupled with its unique ability to drain the body attracted Kitakaze toward the unique weapon.

==Trivia==

:* ''Kitakaze means "North Wind"''
:* ''Kitakaze's hate for sushi comes from an incident in which her entire family came down with food poisoning after a grand sushi dinner to honor her promotion to Chuunin. None in the family have eaten it since.''
:* ''Kitakaze's weapon, Tōshō, is not one of historical significance. It is her hope that she can one day become its legend.''
:* ''When Kitakaze thinks about retiring from shinobi life, her sights turn toward a political career. She hopes that bringing women into military and political leadership will help diversify and strengthen the Country of Earth in a manner close to that of the Airships.''

==Quotes==

:* ''"My heritage is not what matters. What matters is my choice, and I have chosen Iwagakure." (Statement to the Ichinohe Gazette following the Ichinohe-Iwate Train disaster)''
:* ''"Men make up nearly 85% of the military force in the Country of Earth. Imagine the untapped potential. If we do not engage women, we lose!" (Excerpt from her address to the "Twenty Five" Summit, an initiate to increase the representation of women in Tsuchi no Kuni's military to 25%)''

Honda Kitakaze is a Jounin from [[Yuki no Kuni]] who loyally serves [[Iwagakure no Sato]] and wields an axe. She is active in promoting equality within [[Tsuchi no Kuni]]'s Military and visits civilian schools in order to drum up female applicants. The young woman dreams of serving on the [[Tsuchikage]]'s personal guard, and hopes to one day hold political office.
==Summary==
:'''Clan:''' None<br>
:'''Village:''' [[Iwagakure no Sato]]<br>
:'''Nationality:''' [[Yuki no Kuni]]<br>
:'''Age:''' 23<br>
:'''Gender:''' Female<br>
:'''Sexuality:''' Straight

==Appearance==
:'''Height:''' 5'8’’<br>
:'''Weight:''' 140 lbs<br>
:'''Hair:''' Long, bonde.<br>
:'''Eyes:''' Sky Blue.<br>

Kitakaze is a tall, slender woman with a muscular frame and long blonde hair. Hers is a body with many scars, though it does not seem to sully her self-image. She carries herself with a confident might, a smile always about her lips and a sassy swing to her steps. This is not a woman one would think to trifle with lightly.

The woman wears a simple outfit most days: a light blue bustier, a pair of grey gloves, and light colored pants tucked into white boots. Her Jounin vest is black in color, emblazoned on the back with an embroidered wolf head in silver. Most often, the woman also carries her weapon, the finely crafted Tōshō, on one shoulder. Though it is an incredibly heavy weapon, she does not seem to be bothered by it at all. Around her waist, in homage to her title, Kitakaze wears a white wolf pelt, with its tail hanging in the back as if it were her own.

Although it is impractical, Kitakaze can often be found with a layer of make up on her face – usually just foundation, mascara and light blue eyeshadow to accent her eyes. In addition, her hair is always well groomed and her ninja gear is never creased, unpolished or sullied. It seems the woman is attentive toward her appearance and is careful to always look presentable.

When attending to her civilian duties, Kitakaze most often wears a grey or black skirt suit with a structured blazer and a lightly colored blouse. Galas and events find her in luxurious kimonos and even Metropolis style evening gowns and dresses, usually in either navy or light blue. Off duty, it is common to find Kitakaze wearing athletic gear such as leggings, tees and sweatpants. These outfits are often a far cry from the structured and detailed attire she normally opts for, and points towards the fact that Kitakaze cares more about the practicality and function of an outfit than the style. She wears what is appropriate for her current situation and not much more.
==Personality==

:'''Likes:''' Flying in Airships, Gennin, PR Campaigns’’<br>
:'''Dislikes:''' Cowardice, Sushi<br>

Confidence radiates from Kitakaze in waves, namely from her somewhat lopsided and playful smile. She is not usually one to back down from a challenge or allow herself to be called a coward, though is mindful of her limits and finds greater honour in patience than foolhardiness. While it may cause her distress to show her back, the Jounin knows that a new day is far more important than a chance at glory.

Kitakaze, though loathe to be humble about her own accomplishments, is quick to lift others up and finds great joy in teaching at the Iwagakure Academy and training young Gennin. She is a popular mentor and idol among young Kunoichi, and has participated in many PR campaigns in Iwagakure in order to help recruit more women into the life of a Ninja, where they are majorly underrepresented.

While Kitakaze’s devotion to Iwagakure is strong and true, she is still quite arrogant and self-assured. In addition, she often takes on selfish tendencies. Though she may complete tasks without complaint, no matter how small, she is often preoccupied with how her missions and her actions will reflect back on herself. One of her greatest preoccupations in life is how “The Legend of the White Wolf” will be remembered. These selfish thoughts are something she trains hard to rid herself of, though it is hard to combat one’s own ego.

In her personal life, Kitakaze is a bookworm with a penchant for interior design. Those who know her in her line of work might be surprised to visit her in her apartment, where she mostly spends her time reading books, lounging around in her pyjamas and experimenting in the kitchen. Though she campaigns heavily for women in her field, her habits are quite… domestic and typical: baking, sewing and pressing flowers that her mother sends her from Metropolis. The woman is not one for clubbing, shopping or other activities of the sort, and mostly keeps to herself in her off time.

==History==
[[Image:kitakid.png|thumb|left|320px|Kitakaze, Age 8]]
Kitakaze had what one could describe as a normal childhood. She was born in Yuki no Kuni and immigrated with her parents when she was only a few months old, settling in Metropolis for a short time. Her parents were not ninja themselves, but moved to Iwagakure when Kitakaze’s older sister came of age so that she could join the Academy. It was this move that set Kitakaze on the path toward her future career, and one she will remain thankful for.

The girl was an unremarkable student for the most part, aside from her affinity toward Snow Ninjutsu. She scored in the middle of the pack for testing, and seemed to have been destined for a very “average” career as a Shinobi. This career, though, was almost halted by the [[Akatsuki]] Invasion of 2104 and 2105. Although she was not injured in the invasion, its impact was not lost on her. In the early days of Akatsuki’s rule, they torched the [[Alchem]] Clan down to the last child and killed her best friend, Alchem Reiko. This was Kitakaze’s first encounter with death, and she still visits the Alchem Clan memorial often, leaving gifts of flowers and ensuring the area is kept clean.

When [[Alchem Syaoran]] and his team finally freed the village from Akatsuki, with the help of his [[Konohagakureno Sato]] team, Kitakaze’s career as a Shinobi began. Her civilian parents had encouraged her despite the lasting scars from Akatsuki, but urged the young woman to be grateful for what she had and not seek out more. They feared that a desire for recognition would drive their daughter to danger, and that was something they simply could not bear. The genocide of the Alchem Clan had taught them a lesson they would not soon forget- that the life of a Shinobi was fraught with danger and heartache, even when one’s actions were pure and just.

Fate, though, had many things in mind for Kitakaze that her parents would not like. When the [[NCIA]] took over, Kitakaze was quick to join the resistance and fight for her country. Though it would take many years for the war to be over, it was in the resistance that the woman, a Chuunin at the time, picked up an axe for the first time and discovered that she was, in short, a natural. The weight and heft of the weapon was something she had always longed for, finding that swords and lances were much too fragile and light. She trained in the use of large, heavy axes, clubs and hammers and became known for her use of them.

When, finally, the NCIA was wiped from the earth and the Hidden Stone crowned its new Kage, Kitakaze resumed active duty as a Chuunin. It was during this period that she earned her title as The White Wolf, her white-blonde hair and mastery over the art of snow serving to inspire it. She was a skilled fighter and a natural leader, with a keen eye for strategy and a penchant for bringing her teams home without a scratch. Though her average combat ability had thus far failed to grab the attention of her superiors, they became impressed when she began to lead teams of Gennin and help out at the Academy, finding that her skills as a leader to be remarkable.

Growing tensions between the Countries of Earth and Snow, having worsened since the invasion of the Hidden Village, cast doubt on Kitakaze and the rest of her family. As the two nations geared up for war following the [[Tsuchi Yuki Aggression Declaration]], Kitakaze found her mission assignment drying up and was subjected to a great deal of bullying from other Chuunin. Her sister also dealt with a great deal of harassment and, when she gave birth to twin boys in the spring of 2114, she simply stepped down from her job as a Kunoichi instead of accepting maternity leave. Fubiki, her husband, and the two girl's parents eventually moved to [[Metropolis]] during this time in order to escape the critical eye of the Hidden Village.

At this point, Kitakaze was alone. She had refused to give up her job as a Shinobi no matter what the cost. She had seen the cruelty of war, and vowed that she would do her best to prevent what had happened to the Alchem Clan from happening again. She persisted in the face of her sorrow, never once breaking her loyal smile even as her assignments were slowly diminished to that of a Gennin. Though it was agony to be treated with such cruelty by the country she loved, and had come to think of as her own, the White Wolf continued without pause. She kept her head up and did not step out of line even for a moment.

The moment of Kitakaze’s retribution came in the first days of 2115, in the way of the [[Iwate-Ichinohe Tunnel Disaster]]. A train filled with holiday travellers was bound for the small city of Ichinohe when part of the Iwate-Ichinohe Tunnel collapsed. Because of the time of year, and the escalating tension on the Yuki border, few shinobi were able to assist immediately. This lead to Kitakaze being given command of a small team, with orders to defer to their superiors once Iwagakure was able to send a higher ranked Jounin team to assist them. Despite the relatively low level of her six-man team, and the fact that the first 24 hours brought only civilian search and rescue teams to support them, Kitakaze was able to take charge of the situation. Although 12 lives were lost in the collapse, the coordinated efforts of the six-man team lead by Kitakaze managed to rescue 164 survivors.

In the aftermath of the collapse, the city of Ichinohe honoured all of the rescuers with commendations for their bravery. What came next for Kitakaze, though, was far more precious than any award. After a local newspaper quoted her saying that her dedication toward the rescue effort and her continued Shinobi career came from her love of Tsuchi no Kuni and its people, her peers began to see passed her heritage and accept her for the woman that she really was. Following this incident, Kitakaze was reassigned to regular duties and eventually promoted to Jounin in the Fall of 2115 due to her participation in squashing the Yokai invasion of Metropolis during the after party.

Because Kitakaze did not join the I.A.F., she did not participate in the four-month War of Yuki Aggression. Instead she has been developing herself as a Shinobi, and working with a nonprofit organization that seeks to increase the number of women taking part in Shinobi life. Her number one goal, though, remains: becoming a member of the Tsuchikage’s personal guard. This goal recently suffered a blow when she was not chosen to travel to the Rai no Kuni Chuunin exams as a part of Tsuchi no Kuni’s envoy, but Kitakaze’s determination has not wavered.

==Weapon: Tōshō | 凍傷 | Frostbite==
[[Image:tosho.png|thumb|right|320px|Tōshō, The White Wolf's Fang]]
Tōshō is an axe forged from metal mined in the Northern border region of Yuki no Kuni and Tsuchi no Kuni, in an ore-bearing mountain range known as Hakkōda-sankei. The mountains are both culturally and spiritually significant to the native population that calls them home, though the modern age has seen the image of the Hakkōda-sankei range shift from a place of worship to a source of profit.

The axe its self is of luxurious construction, with a polished wooden handle, a soft purple strap for storage and gold accents to add to its beauty. It it obvious from the well-appointed details that Tōshō was lovingly crafted, from the steel that forms its blade to the chakra that was imbued within its form, filling it with deadly promise. It is this chakra that lends the axe its name, for the blade is icy to the touch even on the most sweltering of days.

Despite its fine construction, and spiritually significant components, the Tōshō is not a weapon of great historical importance, or the subject of lore and fairy tales. It was previously a piece of fine art, deadly in its construction but useless in its destiny. Kitakaze recognized its strength, and the heritage of its materials, and purchased it for use as her main combat weapon. Axes are not normally the fare of Shinobi, who tend to lean toward Katanas and other lightweight weaponry. However, the brute strength of the axe coupled with its unique ability to drain the body attracted Kitakaze toward the unique weapon.

==Trivia==

:* ''Kitakaze means "North Wind"''
:* ''Kitakaze's hate for sushi comes from an incident in which her entire family came down with food poisoning after a grand sushi dinner to honor her promotion to Chuunin. None in the family have eaten it since.''
:* ''Kitakaze's weapon, Tōshō, is not one of historical significance. It is her hope that she can one day become its legend.''
:* ''When Kitakaze thinks about retiring from shinobi life, her sights turn toward a political career. She hopes that bringing women into military and political leadership will help diversify and strengthen the Country of Earth in a manner close to that of the Airships.''

==Quotes==

:* ''"My heritage is not what matters. What matters is my choice, and I have chosen Iwagakure." (Statement to the Ichinohe Gazette following the Ichinohe-Iwate Train disaster)''
:* ''"Men make up nearly 85% of the military force in the Country of Earth. Imagine the untapped potential. If we do not engage women, we lose!" (Excerpt from her address to the "Twenty Five" Summit, an initiate to increase the representation of women in Tsuchi no Kuni's military to 25%)''

Honda Kitakaze is a Jounin from Yuki no Kuni who loyally serves Iwagakure and wields an axe. She is active in promoting equality within the Earth Country's Military and visits civilian schools in order to drum up female applicants. The young woman dreams of serving on the Tsuchikgae's personal guard, and hopes to one day hold office as The Earth Country's Defense Minister.
==Summary==
:'''Clan:''' None<br>
:'''Village:''' [[Iwagakure no Sato]]<br>
:'''Nationality:''' [[Yuki no Kuni]]<br>
:'''Age:''' 23<br>
:'''Gender:''' Female<br>
:'''Sexuality:''' Straight

==Appearance==
:'''Height:''' 5'8’’<br>
:'''Weight:''' 140 lbs<br>
:'''Hair:''' Long, bonde.<br>
:'''Eyes:''' Sky Blue.<br>

Kitakaze is a tall, slender woman with a muscular frame and long blonde hair. Hers is a body with many scars, though it does not seem to sully her self-image. She carries herself with a confident might, a smile always about her lips and a sassy swing to her steps. This is not a woman one would think to trifle with lightly.

The woman wears a simple outfit most days: a light blue bustier, a pair of grey gloves, and light colored pants tucked into white boots. Her Jounin vest is black in color, emblazoned on the back with an embroidered wolf head in silver. Most often, the woman also carries her weapon, the finely crafted Tōshō, on one shoulder. Though it is an incredibly heavy weapon, she does not seem to be bothered by it at all. Around her waist, in homage to her title, Kitakaze wears a white wolf pelt, with its tail hanging in the back as if it were her own.

Although it is impractical, Kitakaze can often be found with a layer of make up on her face – usually just foundation, mascara and light blue eyeshadow to accent her eyes. In addition, her hair is always well groomed and her ninja gear is never creased, unpolished or sullied. It seems the woman is attentive toward her appearance and is careful to always look presentable.

When attending to her civilian duties, Kitakaze most often wears a grey or black skirt suit with a structured blazer and a lightly colored blouse. Galas and events find her in luxurious kimonos and even Metropolis style evening gowns and dresses, usually in either navy or light blue. Off duty, it is common to find Kitakaze wearing athletic gear such as leggings, tees and sweatpants. These outfits are often a far cry from the structured and detailed attire she normally opts for, and points towards the fact that Kitakaze cares more about the practicality and function of an outfit than the style. She wears what is appropriate for her current situation and not much more.
==Personality==

:'''Likes:''' Flying in Airships, Gennin, PR Campaigns’’<br>
:'''Dislikes:''' Cowardice, Sushi<br>

Confidence radiates from Kitakaze in waves, namely from her somewhat lopsided and playful smile. She is not usually one to back down from a challenge or allow herself to be called a coward, though is mindful of her limits and finds greater honour in patience than foolhardiness. While it may cause her distress to show her back, the Jounin knows that a new day is far more important than a chance at glory.

Kitakaze, though loathe to be humble about her own accomplishments, is quick to lift others up and finds great joy in teaching at the Iwagakure Academy and training young Gennin. She is a popular mentor and idol among young Kunoichi, and has participated in many PR campaigns in Iwagakure in order to help recruit more women into the life of a Ninja, where they are majorly underrepresented.

While Kitakaze’s devotion to Iwagakure is strong and true, she is still quite arrogant and self-assured. In addition, she often takes on selfish tendencies. Though she may complete tasks without complaint, no matter how small, she is often preoccupied with how her missions and her actions will reflect back on herself. One of her greatest preoccupations in life is how “The Legend of the White Wolf” will be remembered. These selfish thoughts are something she trains hard to rid herself of, though it is hard to combat one’s own ego.

In her personal life, Kitakaze is a bookworm with a penchant for interior design. Those who know her in her line of work might be surprised to visit her in her apartment, where she mostly spends her time reading books, lounging around in her pyjamas and experimenting in the kitchen. Though she campaigns heavily for women in her field, her habits are quite… domestic and typical: baking, sewing and pressing flowers that her mother sends her from Metropolis. The woman is not one for clubbing, shopping or other activities of the sort, and mostly keeps to herself in her off time.

==History==
[[Image:kitakid.png|thumb|left|320px|Kitakaze, Age 8]]
Kitakaze had what one could describe as a normal childhood. She was born in Yuki no Kuni and immigrated with her parents when she was only a few months old, settling in Metropolis for a short time. Her parents were not ninja themselves, but moved to Iwagakure when Kitakaze’s older sister came of age so that she could join the Academy. It was this move that set Kitakaze on the path toward her future career, and one she will remain thankful for.

The girl was an unremarkable student for the most part, aside from her affinity toward Snow Ninjutsu. She scored in the middle of the pack for testing, and seemed to have been destined for a very “average” career as a Shinobi. This career, though, was almost halted by the Akatsuki Invasion of 2104 and 2105. Although she was not injured in the invasion, its impact was not lost on her. In the early days of Akatsuki’s rule, they torched the Alchem Clan down to the last child and killed her best friend, Alchem Reiko. This was Kitakaze’s first encounter with death, and she still visits the Alchem Clan memorial often, leaving gifts of flowers and ensuring the area is kept clean.

When Alchem Syaoran and his team finally freed the village from Akatsuki, with the help of his Konohagakure team, Kitakaze’s career as a Shinobi began. Her civilian parents had encouraged her despite the lasting scars from Akatsuki, but urged the young woman to be grateful for what she had and not seek out more. They feared that a desire for recognition would drive their daughter to danger, and that was something they simply could not bear. The genocide of the Alchem Clan had taught them a lesson they would not soon forget- that the life of a Shinobi was fraught with danger and heartache, even when one’s actions were pure and just.

Fate, though, had many things in mind for Kitakaze that her parents would not like. When the NCIA took over, Kitakaze was quick to join the resistance and fight for her country. Though it would take many years for the war to be over, it was in the resistance that the woman, a Chuunin at the time, picked up an axe for the first time and discovered that she was, in short, a natural. The weight and heft of the weapon was something she had always longed for, finding that swords and lances were much too fragile and light. She trained in the use of large, heavy axes, clubs and hammers and became known for her use of them.

When, finally, the NCIA was wiped from the earth and the Hidden Stone crowned its new Kage, Kitakaze resumed active duty as a Chuunin. It was during this period that she earned her title as The White Wolf, her white-blonde hair and mastery over the art of snow serving to inspire it. She was a skilled fighter and a natural leader, with a keen eye for strategy and a penchant for bringing her teams home without a scratch. Though her average combat ability had thus far failed to grab the attention of her superiors, they became impressed when she began to lead teams of Gennin and help out at the Academy, finding that her skills as a leader to be remarkable.

Growing tensions between the Countries of Earth and Snow, having worsened since the invasion of the Hidden Village, cast doubt on Kitakaze and the rest of her family. As the two nations geared up for war following the Tsuchi Yuki Aggression Declaration, Kitakaze found her mission assignment drying up and was subjected to a great deal of bullying from other Chuunin. Her sister also dealt with a great deal of harassment and, when she gave birth to twin boys in the spring of 2114, she simply stepped down from her job as a Kunoichi instead of accepting maternity leave. Fubiki, her husband, and the two girl's parents eventually moved to Metropolis during this time in order to escape the critical eye of the Hidden Village.

At this point, Kitakaze was alone. She had refused to give up her job as a Shinobi no matter what the cost. She had seen the cruelty of war, and vowed that she would do her best to prevent what had happened to the Alchem Clan from happening again. She persisted in the face of her sorrow, never once breaking her loyal smile even as her assignments were slowly diminished to that of a Gennin. Though it was agony to be treated with such cruelty by the country she loved, and had come to think of as her own, the White Wolf continued without pause. She kept her head up and did not step out of line even for a moment.

The moment of Kitakaze’s retribution came in the first days of 2115, in the way of the Iwate-Ichinohe Tunnel Disaster. A train filled with holiday travellers was bound for the small city of Ichinohe when part of the Iwate-Ichinohe Tunnel collapsed. Because of the time of year, and the escalating tension on the Yuki border, few shinobi were able to assist immediately. This lead to Kitakaze being given command of a small team, with orders to defer to their superiors once Iwagakure was able to send a higher ranked Jounin team to assist them. Despite the relatively low level of her six-man team, and the fact that the first 24 hours brought only civilian search and rescue teams to support them, Kitakaze was able to take charge of the situation. Although 12 lives were lost in the collapse, the coordinated efforts of the six-man team lead by Kitakaze managed to rescue 164 survivors.

In the aftermath of the collapse, the city of Ichinohe honoured all of the rescuers with commendations for their bravery. What came next for Kitakaze, though, was far more precious than any award. After a local newspaper quoted her saying that her dedication toward the rescue effort and her continued Shinobi career came from her love of Tsuchi no Kuni and its people, her peers began to see passed her heritage and accept her for the woman that she really was. Following this incident, Kitakaze was reassigned to regular duties and eventually promoted to Jounin in the Fall of 2115 due to her participation in squashing the Yokai invasion of Metropolis during the after party.

Because Kitakaze did not join the I.A.F., she did not participate in the four-month War of Yuki Aggression. Instead she has been developing herself as a Shinobi, and working with a nonprofit organization that seeks to increase the number of women taking part in Shinobi life. Her number one goal, though, remains: becoming a member of the Tsuchikage’s personal guard. This goal recently suffered a blow when she was not chosen to travel to the Rai no Kuni Chuunin exams as a part of Tsuchi no Kuni’s envoy, but Kitakaze’s determination has not wavered.

Tōshō is an axe forged from metal mined in the Northern border region of Yuki no Kuni and Tsuchi no Kuni, in an ore-bearing mountain range known as Hakkōda-sankei. The mountains are both culturally and spiritually significant to the native population that calls them home, though the modern age has seen the image of the Hakkōda-sankei range shift from a place of worship to a source of profit.

The axe its self is of luxurious construction, with a polished wooden handle, a soft purple strap for storage and gold accents to add to its beauty. It it obvious from the well-appointed details that Tōshō was lovingly crafted, from the steel that forms its blade to the chakra that was imbued within its form, filling it with deadly promise. It is this chakra that lends the axe its name, for the blade is icy to the touch even on the most sweltering of days.

Despite its fine construction, and spiritually significant components, the Tōshō is not a weapon of great historical importance, or the subject of lore and fairy tales. It was previously a piece of fine art, deadly in its construction but useless in its destiny. Kitakaze recognized its strength, and the heritage of its materials, and purchased it for use as her main combat weapon. Axes are not normally the fare of Shinobi, who tend to lean toward Katanas and other lightweight weaponry. However, the brute strength of the axe coupled with its unique ability to drain the body attracted Kitakaze toward the unique weapon.

==Trivia==

:* ''Kitakaze means "North Wind"''
:* ''Kitakaze's hate for sushi comes from an incident in which her entire family came down with food poisoning after a grand sushi dinner to honor her promotion to Chuunin. None in the family have eaten it since.''
:* ''Kitakaze's weapon, Tōshō, is not one of historical significance. It is her hope that she can one day become its legend.''
:* ''When Kitakaze thinks about retiring from shinobi life, her sights turn toward a political career. She hopes that bringing women into military and political leadership will help diversify and strengthen the Country of Earth in a manner close to that of the Airships.''

==Summary==
:'''Clan:''' None<br>
:'''Village:''' [[Iwagakure no Sato]]<br>
:'''Nationality:''' [[Yuki no Kuni]]<br>
:'''Age:''' 23<br>
:'''Gender:''' Female<br>
:'''Sexuality:''' Straight

==Appearance==
:'''Height:''' 5'8’’<br>
:'''Weight:''' 140 lbs<br>
:'''Hair:''' Long, bonde.<br>
:'''Eyes:''' Sky Blue.<br>

Kitakaze is a tall, slender woman with a muscular frame and long blonde hair. Hers is a body with many scars, though it does not seem to sully her self-image. She carries herself with a confident might, a smile always about her lips and a sassy swing to her steps. This is not a woman one would think to trifle with lightly.

The woman wears a simple outfit most days: a light blue bustier, a pair of grey gloves, and light colored pants tucked into white boots. Her Jounin vest is black in color, emblazoned on the back with an embroidered wolf head in silver. Most often, the woman also carries her weapon, the finely crafted Tōshō, on one shoulder. Though it is an incredibly heavy weapon, she does not seem to be bothered by it at all. Around her waist, in homage to her title, Kitakaze wears a white wolf pelt, with its tail hanging in the back as if it were her own.

Although it is impractical, Kitakaze can often be found with a layer of make up on her face – usually just foundation, mascara and light blue eyeshadow to accent her eyes. In addition, her hair is always well groomed and her ninja gear is never creased, unpolished or sullied. It seems the woman is attentive toward her appearance and is careful to always look presentable.

When attending to her civilian duties, Kitakaze most often wears a grey or black skirt suit with a structured blazer and a lightly colored blouse. Galas and events find her in luxurious kimonos and even Metropolis style evening gowns and dresses, usually in either navy or light blue. Off duty, it is common to find Kitakaze wearing athletic gear such as leggings, tees and sweatpants. These outfits are often a far cry from the structured and detailed attire she normally opts for, and points towards the fact that Kitakaze cares more about the practicality and function of an outfit than the style. She wears what is appropriate for her current situation and not much more.
==Personality==

:'''Likes:''' Flying in Airships, Gennin, PR Campaigns’’<br>
:'''Dislikes:''' Cowardice, Sushi<br>

Confidence radiates from Kitakaze in waves, namely from her somewhat lopsided and playful smile. She is not usually one to back down from a challenge or allow herself to be called a coward, though is mindful of her limits and finds greater honour in patience than foolhardiness. While it may cause her distress to show her back, the Jounin knows that a new day is far more important than a chance at glory.

Kitakaze, though loathe to be humble about her own accomplishments, is quick to lift others up and finds great joy in teaching at the Iwagakure Academy and training young Gennin. She is a popular mentor and idol among young Kunoichi, and has participated in many PR campaigns in Iwagakure in order to help recruit more women into the life of a Ninja, where they are majorly underrepresented.

While Kitakaze’s devotion to Iwagakure is strong and true, she is still quite arrogant and self-assured. In addition, she often takes on selfish tendencies. Though she may complete tasks without complaint, no matter how small, she is often preoccupied with how her missions and her actions will reflect back on herself. One of her greatest preoccupations in life is how “The Legend of the White Wolf” will be remembered. These selfish thoughts are something she trains hard to rid herself of, though it is hard to combat one’s own ego.

In her personal life, Kitakaze is a bookworm with a penchant for interior design. Those who know her in her line of work might be surprised to visit her in her apartment, where she mostly spends her time reading books, lounging around in her pyjamas and experimenting in the kitchen. Though she campaigns heavily for women in her field, her habits are quite… domestic and typical: baking, sewing and pressing flowers that her mother sends her from Metropolis. The woman is not one for clubbing, shopping or other activities of the sort, and mostly keeps to herself in her off time.

==History==
[[Image:kitakid.png|thumb|left|320px|Kitakaze, Age 8]]
Kitakaze had what one could describe as a normal childhood. She was born in Yuki no Kuni and immigrated with her parents when she was only a few months old, settling in Metropolis for a short time. Her parents were not ninja themselves, but moved to Iwagakure when Kitakaze’s older sister came of age so that she could join the Academy. It was this move that set Kitakaze on the path toward her future career, and one she will remain thankful for.

The girl was an unremarkable student for the most part, aside from her affinity toward Snow Ninjutsu. She scored in the middle of the pack for testing, and seemed to have been destined for a very “average” career as a Shinobi. This career, though, was almost halted by the Akatsuki Invasion of 2104 and 2105. Although she was not injured in the invasion, its impact was not lost on her. In the early days of Akatsuki’s rule, they torched the Alchem Clan down to the last child and killed her best friend, Alchem Reiko. This was Kitakaze’s first encounter with death, and she still visits the Alchem Clan memorial often, leaving gifts of flowers and ensuring the area is kept clean.

When Alchem Syaoran and his team finally freed the village from Akatsuki, with the help of his Konohagakure team, Kitakaze’s career as a Shinobi began. Her civilian parents had encouraged her despite the lasting scars from Akatsuki, but urged the young woman to be grateful for what she had and not seek out more. They feared that a desire for recognition would drive their daughter to danger, and that was something they simply could not bear. The genocide of the Alchem Clan had taught them a lesson they would not soon forget- that the life of a Shinobi was fraught with danger and heartache, even when one’s actions were pure and just.

Fate, though, had many things in mind for Kitakaze that her parents would not like. When the NCIA took over, Kitakaze was quick to join the resistance and fight for her country. Though it would take many years for the war to be over, it was in the resistance that the woman, a Chuunin at the time, picked up an axe for the first time and discovered that she was, in short, a natural. The weight and heft of the weapon was something she had always longed for, finding that swords and lances were much too fragile and light. She trained in the use of large, heavy axes, clubs and hammers and became known for her use of them.

When, finally, the NCIA was wiped from the earth and the Hidden Stone crowned its new Kage, Kitakaze resumed active duty as a Chuunin. It was during this period that she earned her title as The White Wolf, her white-blonde hair and mastery over the art of snow serving to inspire it. She was a skilled fighter and a natural leader, with a keen eye for strategy and a penchant for bringing her teams home without a scratch. Though her average combat ability had thus far failed to grab the attention of her superiors, they became impressed when she began to lead teams of Gennin and help out at the Academy, finding that her skills as a leader to be remarkable.

Growing tensions between the Countries of Earth and Snow, having worsened since the invasion of the Hidden Village, cast doubt on Kitakaze and the rest of her family. As the two nations geared up for war following the Tsuchi Yuki Aggression Declaration, Kitakaze found her mission assignment drying up and was subjected to a great deal of bullying from other Chuunin. Her sister also dealt with a great deal of harassment and, when she gave birth to twin boys in the spring of 2114, she simply stepped down from her job as a Kunoichi instead of accepting maternity leave. Fubiki, her husband, and the two girl's parents eventually moved to Metropolis during this time in order to escape the critical eye of the Hidden Village.

At this point, Kitakaze was alone. She had refused to give up her job as a Shinobi no matter what the cost. She had seen the cruelty of war, and vowed that she would do her best to prevent what had happened to the Alchem Clan from happening again. She persisted in the face of her sorrow, never once breaking her loyal smile even as her assignments were slowly diminished to that of a Gennin. Though it was agony to be treated with such cruelty by the country she loved, and had come to think of as her own, the White Wolf continued without pause. She kept her head up and did not step out of line even for a moment.

The moment of Kitakaze’s retribution came in the first days of 2115, in the way of the Iwate-Ichinohe Tunnel Disaster. A train filled with holiday travellers was bound for the small city of Ichinohe when part of the Iwate-Ichinohe Tunnel collapsed. Because of the time of year, and the escalating tension on the Yuki border, few shinobi were able to assist immediately. This lead to Kitakaze being given command of a small team, with orders to defer to their superiors once Iwagakure was able to send a higher ranked Jounin team to assist them. Despite the relatively low level of her six-man team, and the fact that the first 24 hours brought only civilian search and rescue teams to support them, Kitakaze was able to take charge of the situation. Although 12 lives were lost in the collapse, the coordinated efforts of the six-man team lead by Kitakaze managed to rescue 164 survivors.

In the aftermath of the collapse, the city of Ichinohe honoured all of the rescuers with commendations for their bravery. What came next for Kitakaze, though, was far more precious than any award. After a local newspaper quoted her saying that her dedication toward the rescue effort and her continued Shinobi career came from her love of Tsuchi no Kuni and its people, her peers began to see passed her heritage and accept her for the woman that she really was. Following this incident, Kitakaze was reassigned to regular duties and eventually promoted to Jounin in the Fall of 2115 due to her participation in squashing the Yokai invasion of Metropolis during the after party.

Because Kitakaze did not join the I.A.F., she did not participate in the four-month War of Yuki Aggression. Instead she has been developing herself as a Shinobi, and working with a nonprofit organization that seeks to increase the number of women taking part in Shinobi life. Her number one goal, though, remains: becoming a member of the Tsuchikage’s personal guard. This goal recently suffered a blow when she was not chosen to travel to the Rai no Kuni Chuunin exams as a part of Tsuchi no Kuni’s envoy, but Kitakaze’s determination has not wavered.

==Weapon: Tōshō | 凍傷 | Frostbite==
[[Image:tosho.png|thumb|right|320px|Tōshō, The White Wolf's Fang]]
Tōshō is an axe forged from metal mined in the Northern border region of Yuki no Kuni and Tsuchi no Kuni, in an ore-bearing mountain range known as Hakkōda-sankei. The mountains are both culturally and spiritually significant to the native population that calls them home, though the modern age has seen the image of the Hakkōda-sankei range shift from a place of worship to a source of profit.

The axe its self is of luxurious construction, with a polished wooden handle, a soft purple strap for storage and gold accents to add to its beauty. It it obvious from the well-appointed details that Tōshō was lovingly crafted, from the steel that forms its blade to the chakra that was imbued within its form, filling it with deadly promise. It is this chakra that lends the axe its name, for the blade is icy to the touch even on the most sweltering of days.

Despite its fine construction, and spiritually significant components, the Tōshō is not a weapon of great historical importance, or the subject of lore and fairy tales. It was previously a piece of fine art, deadly in its construction but useless in its destiny. Kitakaze recognized its strength, and the heritage of its materials, and purchased it for use as her main combat weapon.
