But do not mistake that for her being merciful to people she's been instructed to attack, kill or kid-nap, she will be as ruthless as she has to in order to remain in the good graces of the Akatsuki so she can return to her home once more and exact her vengeance on the Kazekage who disgraced her. That aside, she can happily put on the facade of camaraderie with her new co-workers and will openly tease them in any failings they may accrue if she finds out. Granted she is quite the hypocrite in that regard, unwilling to accept her own failures if taunted or teased over them and often acting quite childish in response, be it by storming off in a huff or blowing raspberries at them. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【[U]History[/U]】 Much like most other orphans, Yui's original clan name was lost to her the moment she was left at the Matou Orphanage by parents who had never wanted a child. Growing up amongst a plethora of other children in Sunagakure, Yui knew she wasn't important and that there wasn't anything special about her just like all the others in this place. That knowledge developed a strong desire in the girl to break that mould, to become something that could give other children from the orphanage their own aspirations and their own wishes aside from just being adopted into a loving family. Various attempts at achieving this goal were made, be it by trying to be the mature older sister of all the orphans or by helping the staff by doing things, all these proving to be fruitless until she tried to join Suna's shinobi academy. Being accepted was a momentous occasion to Yui and her "siblings", moreso as she passed the academy training to become a genin and soon enough a chunin, proving to her fellow orphans that anyone could be good at what they do if they put their hearts into it. She still lived in the orphanage as she trained, only leaving once she was old enough to live by herself, making note of who left and with what family so she could keep in contact with them. The girl learnt everything that was offered to her without discrimination, wanting to reach as high as she could from her own merits and becoming steadily hungrier for power and status. Yui developed techniques of her own based on what she'd learnt and what she'd encountered in the field, quite some time passed by before she had reached a level of skill and rank that she felt happy with, the assistant of the Kazekage. With Yui's new status firmly assured, she gathered her old siblings together for a reunion, wanting to find out what everyone else had been doing during their time out of the orphanage. Whilst her position as the kage's assistant wasn't too well received by the others, due to his treatment of those gathered who were considered part of the lower classes, she was enthusiastic to them about trying to make him change his ways whilst she worked under him. The reunion ended on a somewhat bitter note, but promises were made and further get-togethers were planned amongst them all. Had it not been for the coup d'etat lead against the Kazekage and resulting in his death, Yui would've been involved in them too. If anything left a bitter taste in Yui's mouth it was the shame of being exiled despite everything she'd done in her career for the people of Sunagakure, the example she'd been for her "siblings" and the way she was treated like an enemy of the people just for who she worked with. Her resentment for Ishi and the new administration was unparalleled, even if the new kage was notably better to the people she would have her revenge. Since her exile, she lived off the land (and markets) of neighbouring countries for some time, coming to rest briefly in Takigakure and soon learning of a technique they kept secret as she explored the village overnight. The siege of their stronghold was quick as she bound and strung up all who got in her way with her hair and she'd left with the knowledge of the technique before the rest of the village knew what was going on. Soon after that Yui was discovered by a man named Cockroach and taken to meet Seijuro Nandate and the Akatsuki. Yui had no reservations in agreeing to work for him so long as she could get her Sunagakure back from the woman who wrongfully exiled her, revenge would be had no matter what she had to do. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【[U]Special Traits[/U]】 Taijutsu adept Extensive stamina Above average chakra pool Excellent chakra control Experienced seamstress and hair stylist Youthful looks Sweet bod -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【[U]Equipment/Weapons/Items[/U]】 [i] [u]Name of Weapon or Item:[/u] [u]Description:[/u] [u]Appearance:[/u] [/I] -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【[U]Kekkei Genkai [/U]】 [I] [U]Name of Kekkei Genkai:[/u] None [U]Clan:[/U] [U]Rank[/u] [U]Description:[/U] [/I] ------------------------------------------------------- [I]Jutsu:[/I] [hider=Canon Jutsu] Academy Techniques [url=http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Earth_Grudge_Fear]Earth Grudge Fear[/url] - Currently in possession of a singular additional heart, granting her use of earth release techniques.

It can be used in tandem with Earth Spear for even greater boosts to her might. [b]Weakness:[/b] Fire type techniques, even her own, will easily scorch the hair from her body to create vulnerabilities and weaken the affected area to it's original strength. This technique doesn't improve her reflexes, nor her dexterity or agility, it only makes her stronger physically. [b]Name of Technique:[/b] Keratin Grudge: Claw Formation [b]Type of Jutsu:[/b] Taijutsu [b]Rank:[/b] B [b]Range:[/b] Self [b]Nature Type:[/b] None [b]Description:[/b] Normally used in tandem with Body Amplification, but can be used without it. This formation creates large, monstrous claws from her hair that cover her hands, solidify and imitate metal, their cutting power is of little concern as these things are designed to crush or pierce in stabbing or slamming motions. To accommodate for the size and weight of them, further reinforcement of her arms are made to allow her to attack with relative ease and in turn deal more damage. [b]Weakness:[/b] Unable to form Hand Seals in this formation and thusly cannot use standard ninjutsu, her attacks are also slightly slower than normal and once more, her hair is vulnerable to fire, even her own. [b]Name of Technique:[/b] Keratin Grudge: Invasive Species. [b]Type of Jutsu:[/b] Ninjutsu [b]Rank:[/b] A [b]Range:[/b] Approx 100 metres [b]Nature Type:[/b] None [b]Description:[/b] Yui separates one of her accrued hearts from her body in the form of a hair-woven copy of herself that seeks out and engulfs a target, the hair digging into their body and enhancing their abilities by a small degree, it also grants them access to the techniques Yui gained through acquiring the heart. This can be used on anyone she can get into physical contact with. If the target dies whilst this technique is in effect it harvests any intact organs, especially the heart, and returns to Yui. [b]Weakness:[/b] Once the target leaves the 100 metre limit the technique is cancelled out and the mass of hair housing the heart returns to Yui, alone it is easy to intercept and eradicate. It also leaves a wide range of wounds over the target's body where the hair dug into them. It is also highly vulnerable to fire techniques, due to the hair's weakness to fire. [b]Name of Technique:[/b] Keratin Clone [b]Type of Jutsu:[/b] Ninjutsu [b]Rank:[/b] C [b]Range:[/b] Short [b]Nature Type:[/b] None [b]Description:[/b] Creates a clone of Yui composed of her hair, has greater resilience than a standard shadow clone and once it's reached it's limit it explodes into a fine mist of diced hair, sure to get into places no one wants hair. [b]Weakness:[/b] Standard shadow clone, only contains about 1/10th of her chakra and is highly vulnerable to fire type techniques, even her own.
