(This post has been edited to avoid misunderstandings about what I'm going for with the Character based on the feedback I have gotten from 2 mods via PM)
Name: Hashigaki Kurokawa
Age: 12
Physical Description:
Kurokawa means black river and she got the name because of a tot of ebon hair located on her forehead (and because rivers often spring from waterfalls. See History). She otherwise has completely white hair unlike her mother who has completely black hair. At her current age she has shoulder long hair commonly held in a knot, with the black lock of hair running up into the knot. She is 1,50m tall and weighs 45kg. Her fair skin is almost as white as her hair and she has a scare on the right side of her neck. As her clan name suggests she is completely blind but does not have a white veil over her eyes. She has beautiful black eyes with a brown iris. Her face is above average in beauty and really emphasizes her eyes but she usually wears a silk harlequin mask style blindfold

Difference being that the blue parts are black, it being made of silk, and the eyes also being covered by black) The mask is not ugly but it does take of some of the appeal for most people no matter how well looking the rest of the face is. Down along her spine she has a one month old tattoo in the form of the characters for black and for river.
Mental Description:
Kurokawa has been very calm and collected all her life. That is until she learned about her Origen (See below). After that she stopped being too trusting and kept everyone at arm’s length with one eye ever watchfully focused on them at all times. Until she has a reason to trust someone she somewhat gives them the benefit of the doubt without getting too close for comfort. Would not want one of them to pull a knife on her or worse. Once you gain her trust however, she will stand by you and help out to the best of her ability. Female characters are more easily trusted as they have yet to try and attack her or her immediate family.
History:
About 13 years ago on a cloudy night a woman was travelling between her home near Otogakura (Hidden sound village) and Iwagakure (Hidden Rock Village) to visit some family. The mist suddenly formed as it often does in the waterfall country but this was no ordinary mist. It was the signature assault strategy technique used by the water country soldiers called the hidden mist technique. Before long her two companions, who lacked her ability to see with sound, were gone and she was left alone in the mist. She was struck in the back of the head and when she woke up she knew what had happened. Her two companions had stopped and killed the lone straggler but not before the mist had cleared and by then it was too late to prevent. One of her companions had identified the attack as a Kaguya missing nin from the family crest on his garments and the line through his forehead protection. They made it safely to Iwagakure and she decided to stay there with that side of the family for the time being. Nine months later Kurokawa was born. Rivers often springs from waterfalls and she was conceived during the trip through the waterfall country. That and the small collected portion of her hair located on the right side of her forehead decided her name. Kurokawa was born blind but during her first several years her mother taught her about the sound and how to use it to feel everything close by rather than see it. A rose is a rose, red or not, so although colour is a foreign concept to her the shape and location aspects of perception are in turn heightened. She had many friends growing up and they helped her to find clothes to flatter her beauty, as did her mother. At the age of ten we was ready to enter the academy but before that her mother took her on a trip to celebrate the fact that she was going to become a ninja but also to tell her the truth about her father. Kurokawa was of course shocked to learn about her origin but she did not get much time to come to terms with it. A group of people wanted a member of the Hashigaki clan for research purposes and a group consisting of two male and two female ninjas were eavesdropping. Learning about Kurokawas unique background they decided on a plan to have the men capture the mother and the women would then lie to Kurokawa and tell her that her mother had been killed and that they were going to take her in. Kurokawa’s had not been sitting idle for the last 10 years and was not an unskilled fighter herself by this time. To protect her daughter she fought against the male members to the point where they decided that capture alive was not an option. Prioritizing the daughter other the mother as the living sample they killed the mother without first separating them which send Kurokawa into a blind rage that activated her bone grows temporarily to make her a charging hedgehog of fury. The 2 men were rather surprised by this vicious new attacker and one managed to get stabbed quite badly and bled out in seconds. The other got away with minor injuries but not before delivering a cut to Kurokawa’s right side of the neck, which caused her to retract the spikes and fall unconscious. He then took off with the dead mother leaving the rest to the two female ninjas, one of which was a skilled medical ninja. They now didn’t have to lie about the mother being dead and as they planned they took her in to raise her to help their cause one day. After than she was hospitalized for a while and soon turned 11. She became a bit of a shut in for some time but slowly recovered from the shock and although she was devastated about losing her mother she pulled through. She had not been able to control or even just activate her bone bloodline since then, but she also knows that she neither has the chakra nor the control to do so anyway so that is not surprising. By the age of 12 she was back with her close friends and although she had a newfound caution towards the opposite gender she was well enough rehabilitated to finally start at the academy. She remembered nothing from seeing her mother getting killed to waking up in a hospital, so other than knowing that her father is from the Kaguya clan she has no memory of using or control over the bone bloodline limit. She only has what her mother taught her before her death + what little her two new guardians have taught her.
Notes:
Right so Kaguya will be a sleeping beauty until its kinjutsu time. Just wanted a background story that tells at least the admins that it is there somewhere lurking and waiting. I dislike the idea of having one parent shrouded in mystery only to reveal them later when it is convenient to get a specific blood line limit. I much rather like the transparency of either you have that blood or you don't.
