Name: Saotome, Asami
Age: 13
Gender: Female
Sex: Female
Rank: Academy Student
General Description: Puberty has blessed this child in more ways than one. Already, she stands at five foot two and is of average weight. One look at her face makes one thing clear - a face as delicate as hers does not belong anywhere near a battlefield, let alone amongst the killers-in-training of Kumogakure. A gentle face and its big blue eyes are adorned by dark purple curls. The hair is prone to appear differently under different lights - a bright summer's day brings about slight shades of pink, while dark shadows bring it closer to black. As any sensible shinobi should, she keeps it tied up during combat, making a bun that's difficult for her enemies to take advantage of.
What few scars marred her beauty have faded with time (and vanish with a little makeup). Those on her arms and legs are a little harder to hide; it’s probably why Asami prefers long-sleeved tops, while the marks on her lower-half are explained away by clumsy trips and falls. Still, her exposed legs begin to give away her role - her body shows slight signs of a shinobi's regime, giving it a slight tone.
Asami bears a personality to match her appearance: caring (perhaps deceptively so), welcoming and generally friendly. When there isn't a book in her hand, she greets strangers and friends alike with a warm smile - and hopes they don't notice her watching from afar moments before. She isn't quite as naive as looks would suggest, and occasionally decides against approaching seedier folk. That is the most strangers see of Asami's more deceptive side. She's unlikely to forget a weakness shown by others, whether physical or mental, and should try choose to cross her, she believes abusing it is fair gain... Especially if everybody else remains none the wiser.
History: Three years ago, Asami would never have considered the shinobi life. The daughter of a blacksmith and a small bakery chain, Asami was set to follow in the latter's footsteps. Despite living in the shinobi village, the question of joining the military never arose. It wasn't until scouts discovered an exceptional potential and its control in the young girl that her father mentioned in passing... And then again, more directly, a few weeks later. The matter came up in conversation more and more, with her father becoming oddly aggressive about enlisting. Asami suspected that extortion was involved. Why else would a loving father suddenly decide to send his child off to die?
In the end, she wasn't left with much of a choice, but the young lady was not willing to let her path become a death sentence. For the time being, her goals are simple: keep her head down, survive, and make allies that will help her to do just that.
