Hmm. I'll have to think on it for a while. Not quite sure I have enough of an idea what kinds of people the Dai Li seek out for their recruits.
Expressing interest in either a fire nation deserter or the amateur Dai Li agent.

In regards to the latter, did you want them to be completely uninitiated at the start of the roleplay? Or just a fresh recruit?
It was morning for her.

What kind of pirate wakes up at sunrise?

Character Sheet

Mizushima Isuza



It was a small consolation for Isuza to have Feya on her side. Provided the captain had the funds for her supplies, the two of them would have little trouble getting the wood, rigging and other miscellaneous bits and bobs on board in one trip. Of course, so rarely was anything so simple with the crew of the Rum Runner. Before the aquatic hybrid could so much as mumble a reply, she had be challenged to a race already! Normally, she enjoyed the friendly competitions, but it was still morning and Isuza had yet to even eat!

Any protests she could've given would have fallen upon deaf ears, as the shark girl would learn. By the time she spun around to call out to the dashing doctor, she had already hopped into the sea. Never one to be spoiled produce, Isuza reluctantly jogged after her friend and after shedding her haori onto the deck, launched herself over the side and into the briney deep below.

The shock of cold ocean water jolted an otherwise sleepy shipwright wide away. Immediately the gills upon her neck sprung open, sucking in gulps of the sea to filter the oxygen within. Legs kicked and arms paddled, launching the small woman forward with breakneck speed to catch up with Feya and her head start. The human was certainly powerful, but she hadn't bested Isuza yet, and that wasn't going to change today. While she paddled hard in the chop of the surface, the lavender headed lass carved through the currents below, racing in the direction of shore.

Unfortunately, what she first assumed to be shore wasn't quite it. Cracked up to eyes made to see through the harsh salt water of the sea, Isuza spotted the far off blip grow and grow... But stop growing after a while. Indeed, the murky image was much too small to be an island. It was even floating! A ship, she realized, halting her swim and quickly surfacing to cry out to Feya. In another stroke of misfortune, she reached air just in time to witness the crew's doctor headbutt a hull.

The resulting shouting and pounding quickly washed away any worry she had, but before a giggle could be had, the boom of a den den mushi snatched her attention. Bounty hunters? Oh no.. She had heard the crew made a name for itself during that slave revolt, but surely they weren't wanted enough to warrant a practical galleon chasing them? The bold demand for a surrender resigned Isuza to a sigh; that wasn't happening. There would be a fight here, for certain, only more assured by the sight of Feya scaling the side of the vessel.

The instinctive need to assist in the daring boarding was slowed however, by the skip up of one Mr. Krabbe. Torpedoes?! What kind of bounty hunter had torpedoes?! Her precious Rum Runner was not going to withstand the blast of some kind of bizarre explosive today! Deciding the monstrous Feya could handle herself while the others closed, Isuza sank down again beneath the water, swimming interception between the Runner and this oversized monstrosity of a vessel, large eyes open wide for incoming projectiles.
I shouldn't apply to this but I know I'll end up doing it.
Which two villages are we doing exactly? Konoha seems obvious, but what's the second?
Mizushima Isuza



The gentle rocking of a sailing vessel was always so soothing in the calmer waters. As a child of the sea, Isuza had always been at ease on the open waves, and the lapping of the ocean against the hull at night always put her into a deep, relaxing —

"Bawhahahahaha! Land hooooo!"

Sleep! The rumbling laughter above deck reverberated all the way down into the lowest chambers of the vessel where her cabin was. In her shock, the poor fish girl sprung up with a great deal of force and promptly bonked her head on the low ceiling of her small dwelling. Followed by a sharp inhale and a pathetic whine, the lavender haired shipwright cursed both her jumpy nature and choice of room. At the time, having her place of residence adjacent to the cargo hold at the bottom of the ship made sense; she could breathe if they began taking on water and was closest to finding and fixing the leak.

A big bump on the forehead every time they found land, though, was quickly changing her mind. Higher ceilings on the next vessel, definitely...

Managing to collect herself, Isuza quickly began dressing in her comfortable garb and preparing for the day. She had spent a good deal of the night prior building a list of everything she needed from this final port. Reverse Mountain was a place of broken ships and broken dreams, and the young carpenter would've been lying if she said she was totally confident in her precious Rum Runner's ability to navigate it safely. She had the tooth pile to prove that anxiety. But, she was a proud scion of the Mizushima Shipyard! No mountain was so great that she couldn't fix its effects on a vessel.

Or so she told herself. Stuffing the parchment into her sash, Isuza made for the upper deck, closing her door behind her but leaving the plain cabin unlocked. The only person who invaded, by the greasy residue she usually found, was Slick, and he tended to be everyplace where things weren't nailed down.

Coming into the bright daylight above, Isuza shielded her delicate eyes from the sun. At least the day was nice enough to let her run through a final few checks on the riggings and the like. But that was later. Now, now was the time for supplies.

Unfortunately for her, the man in charge was surrounded on all sides by the crew members who inhabited the vessel. Chewing her bottom lip in contemplation, silvery orbs scanned around and instead focused in on a certain body builder. Feya was always one of the more approachable members of their ragtag family. Surely she could help!

A bit of light footed waddling brought the petite hybrid before her "rival" of sorts. With all the boldness of a mouse, she withdrew the crumbled parchment from the yellow sash securing her pants, wiggling it at the much taller female.

"Uhm.. I made a lith of thingth I need to repair the thip. Would you mind, y'know... Helping me carry it all back?" She asked, air whistling through teeth far too pointy to belong in her mouth as she spoke. "After I get the nethethary fundth from Thedric, anyway..."
I'll put my hat in with this. Thinking of House Stark or Blackwood.
A vote for Isuza is a vote for hastily made shark tooth necklaces with only a little bit of saliva still on them.
