Appearance

Height: 4’10"
Weight: 84 lbs.
Hair Color: Red
Eye Color: Red
Clothing: Minako typically prefers darker colours, which contrast starkly with her paler skin and bright hair. On most days, she will wear her hair in a messy ponytail, but some days she rotates between messy buns and twin-tails. Her preferred outfit is a tank top with a combination of tights and miniskirts, and a hoodie depending on the weather. She holds herself with a poise that indicates a long time spent doing intricate movements and having complete control over her body. Minako looks slightly malnourished, being a little too thin for a girl her age, but she holds a look in her eye that lets people know that they'd pay if they underestimated her.
History
Minako was born in Amegakure, and abandoned sometime around age 3. She spent a lot of time wandering around by herself, and scavenging food scraps from alleyways, often trying to find shelter from the frequent rain. One day, a man spotted her scavanging around for scraps and gave her a little of his left over yakisoba, and the grateful and starving girl wolfed it down rather quickly. Not having experienced kindness before, Minako followed the man, out of childish curiosity and interest, and surprisingly, the man took her along with him when he left the city. They spent most of their time hunting, and foraging for food while travelling from city to city. Sometimes, Minako would be left alone where they had last made camp, and the man would always come back with yakisoba as a treat, and occasionally, that would almost make up for the loneliness she felt when she was separated from the man.
There were few words spoken between them, mostly learning to understand each other through actions over time. The man went from city to city taking on bounty missions, and Minako would wait patiently, tending to the fire and making sure their supplies were kept safe. Upon one day learning that the man was a ninja, Minako begged him to teach her the ninja arts. The man originally believed that little girls had on use for jutsus or combat skills, but knowing that if he had an accident on one of his missions that she would be left with little skills to keep herself alive, he relented and started teaching her some basic taijutsu. On Minako's 5th birthday, the man gifted her with a simple, medium lengthed spear. Due to the fact that she was smaller than most ninja, she needed to learn to use a weapon that would give her more reach in combat, so she could have the advantage, he told her. And from that day forward, she trained with a spear every day.
One day, when Minako was 8 years old, while travelling through Kumogakure, the man left on a mission once again, but this time did not return. Minako waited at the camp for days, looking out and wondering when the man would return, and refusing to move from the spot until she ran out of food and passed out due to starvation and exhaustion. She woke to find herself in the Kumogakure hospital. Minako fought and cried, worried she would've missed the man's return but she wasn't let out of the hospital and causing the Kumogakure medics to have to restrain her until she calmed down. It took a few months, before Minako gave up, and resigned herself to the fact that the man would've most likely left without her. Eventually she was allowed out of the hospital, and handed over to the orphanage, where she had the choice of going to a civilian school or the ninja academy. Minako chose the ninja academy with the goal of trying to find the man again who she didn't even know the name of, but owed her life to.

- I was inspired when I saw Scathach from Fate/Grand Order. Most of the photos of her are like ecchi though, so I had to try and find photos that looked similar to what she might look like when younger
