Name: Sanohe Shouka
Age: 11
Gender: Female
Sex: Female
General Description:
Shouka has an over-active imagination, making her quite nervous for someone her age. Her tendency to leap to the worst case scenario made her parents doubt her potential use as a ninja, but she shocked them both with her enthusiasm to start attending the academy.
Though she is good at adapting to new situations, Shouka is more inclined to follow the crowd than to attempt to lead. From a young age she was expected to emulated her parents' perfect courtesy around guests and customers- and she was well up to the task. When it is appropriate, she is the image of courtesy, however, like most kids her age, she is prone to the occasional bratty outburst.
One look at Shouka will tell you that she was not one to spend much time outdoors. She stands at 4'6”, weighs 67 pounds, and has the smooth, unscarred skin of someone who was blessed not to have experienced many injuries. What little physical training she has had, though, has left her with enough muscle to keep her from looking lanky. Her skin is light brown, and her jet black eyes contrast with the vibrant red of her hair.
History:
The Sanohe were an undistinguished clan made up of moderately successful, lower to middle class merchants who resided in Kumogakure. That is, until one member suceeded in the capture of a powerful missing-nin. The fame afforded by this feat brought attention to the Sanohe clan, and, piqued by the possibility of political and economic rise, many members of its members abandoned the merchant trade in order to capitalise on the, now much more alluring, 'shinobi option'.
The techniques they used to prepare the clan's children to become shinobi ranged from lax to downright cruel. Some attempted to viciously train the kids in order to enter the academy at the earliest possible date, issuing harsh punishments on members who failed to enter or graduate from the academy. As they were a family of merchants (and not shinobi), however, the lesson plans were usually clumsy and inefficient, and as a result, a general state of uneasiness rose among the clan, with many children joining the academy each year only to drop out soon after.
Shockingly, Shouka was ecstatic to hear the news that she would enter the academy. Until that point she'd been raised under the anticipation that she'd be some merchant's wife, and was taught courtesy, arithmetic, and all the basic skills needed to run a shop or stall. She seemed to love her lessons, strict as they were. So her family was quite surprised when she ecstatically agreed to adhere to their strict lesson plans and learn the basics, and began looking for any bit of information she could find on shinobi.
