Name: Ota Shiori
Age: 9
Physical Description: A little short for her age, Shiori stands timidly at four foot tall (125cm) and weighing sixty pounds (27kg). A frail looking child with pitch black hair drawn close to her matching eyes, dark orbs that seem just a little large for her face. Her quiet nature is contrasted only by the reflected excitement in the young girl’s eyes, a student ready to learn, ready to Become.
Mental Description: Quietly holding in her ambition, Shiori is shy, awkward and has always felt a little different from the other children. Hiding behind her hair, lingering behind the group, she doesn’t like to be the center of attention and seems shrinks when approached by all but her father. She is determined become shinobi worthy of respect, and takes instruction, and herself, rather seriously
History: Shiori was born to a young couple in Iwagakure no Sato. Her mother, a baker, died in childbirth and because her shinobi father was on active duty with a field-research team, her care fell to her grandmother. Seeing her father only once every few months, she grew-up relatively happy under her grandmother’s roof, but when he returned to her, Shiori would light up brighter than ever. He is her hero, and it is by his model that the young girl tries so hard. Accepted into the Academy, Shiori hopes the time between that he is gone, she can use to become a skilled kunoichi, and make him proud. Recently it has occurred to her that she had no idea what her father did, but all he could say in response was “protecting our country”. She would do her part too, and perhaps her father would be able to come home more.
