The Hand of Retribution is a rough individual. No longer does her image appeal to her once soft personality, no longer decadent and sweeted. Her once white hair has been cut from the picture, and repainted was long, spkiey black hair. Half of the bang hanging from her face is white. This hair would represent her hardened skin and perservered attitude. The slanted, emerald green eyes only burned brighter with a passion, ever persistant to inform her foes she had nothing to lose. Her left eye is somewhat special, branded with a scar going across her eye vertically, extending minimally below and above the eye. Her lips a pale, yet dark red, perhaps that maybe it was something of a pinkish-purple to some. Her left ear is pierced with several black, square studs lining vertically along her ear.

She wears a sleeveless mesh top, perhaps either a black or grey color. It usually extends to her waist. On the side of her abdomen where the mesh top is ripped is a japanese kanji, 死, meaning death. On her right arm, she wears a long, red sleeve, something that traditional Iwagakure shinobi may wear. Her hand is bandaged, and if the sleeve was removed, it would reveal that her entire hand is bandaged, perhaps up to her shoulder. It appears that her neck is also bandaged, though, for reason much unknown; sometimes the bandage is raised and serves as a mask. Near her left hand, her wrist has several japanese kanji forming a sort of circle around it. These are; 損失(loss), 判決(judgement), 報復(retribution), 隷属(servitude), and 人生(life). Above these the rest of her arm is bandaged. Over her mesh top she wears a waist-length, red, sleeveless jacket with a hood. She has navy blue shinobi sandals, and covering part of footwear and up to her knees is a white cloth. She wears typical shinobi pants, colored navy blue. Around her waist, she wears a large cloth that acts as a skirt, opening up on the right and hanging lower on the left, colored red. Her white clothed, Konohagakure forehead protector serves as the belt to that cloth, actually being sewn into it. That is Miu's new attire as the Hand of Retribution.

When Miu does not partake in serving the Hokage's best interests, ie, simply hanging around the village, she wears a regular outfit consisting of a red mesh armour blouse with only the right sleeve visible. Over this is very broad material which resembles bandages with a pattern on it similar to those of rose thorns. Her hands and upper thighs are also wrapped in bandages and she wears the Konoha forehead protector and regular shinobi sandals.

Miu is no longer the decadent or tortured soul she once was. She remains quiet and elusive in debates and discussions, only speaking when she must and when it is completely nessecary. Her words are selected carefully, and depend on her situations. She would not speak lightly if she tried to convince someone to do something, or speak rudely to the Hokage. She treats those around her with the utmost respect, even foes. She isn't above being arrogant about her or anyone's skills as long as they are from Konoha. She boasts that Konoha will find their peace and achieve their goals. She is somewhat cynical however, and it is unknowing how one copes with such.

Miu also understands her place in Konohagakure under the Hokage and in his team. She serves as the medic and sealing expert, and takes these roles very seriously. However, given the chance, she would eagerly accept any mission that involved her acting out the Hokage's personal assassination requests. This is mostly in due part, her cynical nature that longs to serve in any way possible. She herself copes with these, without too much trouble. She remains quite happy and content if she was to handle something like this.

Her arrogance is a minimal problem for her, at least. Arrogance in her abilities and others only comes from when she is pressuring on the verge of victory. She does not cloud her vision with arrogance and pride, unless she has something to pride herself upon. She does give her foes respect where it is deserved, and is not above praising them for possess high intellect or thinking one step ahead of someone. Overall, Miu remains quite serious.

Miu does have a rather friendly side, something she likes to keep only for her teammates. Her village has no use for it. It is something of a "big sister" attitude. With great care and concern towards them, and very brave. She would not hesitate to jump in front of them and take a dangerous hit. Towards them, she in unyielding, honest and simple, thus, her squad is perhaps her biggest weakness.

Name: Improved Perception
Rank: C
Type: Mental Based
Physical Requirements: N/A
Training Requirements: A 600 word training post is required to gain this special characteristic.
Description: The ninja trains their skill in perception and analyzing their environment to more distinct levels. Every physical motion is identified to the ninja whether its a movement in a leaf or change in temperature.

However although they can sense the genjutsu they must rely on other methods of breaking the spell.

She was born as Kimura, Miu. A child who had little interests in life, all due to the factor that she was a baby. Young and quite immature with little perception of the reality around her. Clueless about the engorging effect the world had. Engulfed in the flames where everyone was important because that was their belief. She, Ms. Kimura, could never think of such a thing at that age. Exception might exist, but between greed, pride and lust, life was all too cruel. To a finer degree, like a dagger delved far into the flesh. It's just not a scar when she thinks back about it. But it's been lost in the lands for ages. her thought were such. too many knives, something that won't heal.

She could remember growing up as a young girl. Splendid years of course. She always enjoyed other people. They'd put on jolly good shows. Between their turmoil, strife, discord, and forgetfulness of course. The young lady could find a pleasent good laugh in such a situation. A mature lady, couldn't find sanctuary inside such unsettled matters. She found the open world was so fatal. She was so eager to tip her hat and smile, to meet new people. to try and do new things. Learn about her surroundings. Her parent's always encouraged kindness. Tolerance and love. Powerful forces Miu would long claim as deceased. But at this age, nothing was dead. Not the skeletal remains of her tortoise Dupe. She thought he was a great tortoise.

She could remember what she learned from the late tortoise. It's always what's inside that's important. This is when she adopted the Gothic Lolita style of clothing and personality. She never judged people at that age, because she was quite blind from the shadows. She had the security of her parents, family and friends. Fear could never find her. She did find it under the moonlight while alone. The darkness laughed at her, taunting her, undaunted by her. When one finally realises it isn't a monster, but an ignorant and rude older brother.

She alwas thought to deal with him later, never doing that. She also learned her second lesson, that time is everchanging. of course, after she 'accidently' spilled out tea onto his crotch, her revenge was exacted. She would pay close attention to the changing sky. Even the night sky. She watched the heavenly stars dance with the moon. She often considered drawing it's form, free and elegant. Wrapped in the black stain sky. She lacked patience back then and settled for staring in awe.

There was the day when she came of age to become a student at the academy. She felt honoured. she supposed it was only natural. her parents told her to perceive what she was good at. Today, she wanted them to get off whatever substance they abused. Right then, she was inspired to try ever kind of jutsu possible. Of course, with what short attention span she had, she was chasing a magnificent butterfy within a few short seconds. Miu turned after it landed on her hand to see her father's face covered in dripping mud. She rememberes that she laughed at him. Because it wasn't mud that he had on his face. Nor was it chocolate.

She believed, that the academy really shaped her view on the world. In what ideal world do people send their children to fight with others? In all honesty, as she thinks back upon these things, she finds that she really didn't like it. Human ideals were such a bore. she always found that she liked Fuuinjutsu. The art of sealing. It wasn't the easiest, but such a feat usually had it's advantages. Some seals she heard of were quite powerful. Then again, anything powerful would kill her now, wouldn't it? Hahaha.

As she found herself aging, she also discovered a lust towards helping others. Yes, a lust. She wasn't walking around pleasuring others with her body. No, She's not that fickle or easy. She likes her men older. Perhaps a little immoral as well. Anyway, back on topic. Eijutsu. She began to set sights and lock on. She wanted to help others instead of harm, so she figured why not give it a try. Miu guessed she was good at it if she still uses it today. People didn't laugh at her. Oh no, they were busy trying to figure out why she was always praising them. (Actually, it was sarcasm. They just think like a genius would.) She hated them in all honestly. But she stayed around.

Thing really got strange around her last year of the academy. She had discovered the strangest thing; someone had a crush on her. Actually, two boys. They were both weirder than she was. She had heard from the few people who actually understood her and liked Miu that, they were friends until they both 'proclaimed' their love for her. Yuck. Like She wanted to be the problem they weren't friends anymore. So Miu told them what any girl would tell someone she doesn't like. They were pretty angry, but Miu hoped they'd get over it. Anyway, She did graduate. Not with flying colors of course. She didn't want to be treated special.

As a genin, life was terrible. She remembered her squad. Bunch of idiots. Miu would always get left behind. At least her sensei always came back for her. If it wasn't for him, Miu might've just quite the squad right off the bat. Of course she did have an important role. As the team's medic, Miu didn't have to fight that much, and when she did it was usually just to support everyone. Even her sensei understood how valuable Miu was to the squad's well-being. Miu was so just, whatever. She didn't really care. They were annoying and they died on a mission, so what? She'd glad she got away. Miu will detail her version here in these following pages.

~ I was really alone. For once, my defenseless, innocent self. Haha. I wasn't defenseless at all. I had some ninjutsu sealed into a small scroll my squadmates and sensei helped me prepare. As the enemy ninja dashed towards me, I smirked. A streak of metal shot from the trees and bushes as my foes faltered and collasped. I could see the kunai wound that drove deep into the flesh. It was a pleasent sight. At least I was still living. That was the pleasent part. Seeing as my teammates were nearby, I started for the designated area only to stare in complete horror upon the site of my incapacitated sensei.

I was lost as I slid to the ground beside him. He looked so peaceful as he spoke. I'll never forget the words he told me. To kill my teammates. Live, grow and thrive as a survivor of the truth. Never allow yourself to be outdone. Always have an ace up your sleeve. I hugged him and whispered sweet nothings into his ear, until I couldn't feel his heart's beat. I knew my love for him was immoral, but I wanted him to smile even beyond death. And so I looked oonward into the vast, empty forest. I had two traitors to find and kill. I'd start with the idiot, unless I came across the intelligent one first.

My luck wasn't the best. At least he found himself incapacitated by a girl. ~ I tied him up. I won't dare explain to you how I captured him. It's really my business how I managed to succeed with such low odds. Anyways, I sent out a signal, that was sure to bring the other back. I sent out a ninjutsu used by my friend beside me and hide. I waited, and waited. I probably waited some more. Then he emerged and ran towarsd the tree, getting caught in a rope trap. I emerged with a kunai drawn. My only words could be, no mercy. But I said nothing. I merely mocked them with a sarcastic laugh and said that they would live. I guess they learned the really hard way. ~

And now here she was. 3 years after that event. Miu had just emerged from hiding to find that the world was still drab. Failure to entertain her, Miu set out. To find people who were like her. Misunderstood and lost. After all, Miu couldn't fight well on my own. She would require help. Miu would spend however much time as she would need to find the right person. And she would thrive, grow stronger and become beautiful, like her sensei taught her.

Later, Miu would find herself descending slowly into madness. She was redeemed mentally when she met a strange man who seemed to understand her. This changed her and she decided to return to Konoha to face judgement and seek reparation with them. Her morals adjusted, Miu vowed to serve the Hokage, entrusting with that, every generation of Miu's family would serve every generation of Hokage until they died. Little did she know that it would later give birth to the Kimura Clan, but that would be a tale she would never see. It would take several generations to see this clan bloom.

With returning to Konoha, Miu had on thing to do; serve the Hokage as the Hand of Retribution until her death. She had a meeting with recently elected Hokage Mitsu Ridori. The outcome was that Miu would serve Konoha under a watchful eye and live in the residence they provided for her.

She still hadn't found her destination. She was slightly bitter towards he who directed her down the path. She sighed as she seeked refuge under a tree. She found it crisp in the shade of the magnificent beauty that loomed over her. She could hear the birds chirp, the bees buzz. The little animals scamper about collecting fruit and nuts. The wind that rustled the gold, amber and blood leaves down from their branches. It washed over a sense of security once more. She noted that the season wasted no time in preparing nature for the next.

She rebuttoned her jacket, feeling the cold seep onto her skin. Chills creeped and stalked up her body, giving her a frozen feel of the world around her. She noticed that see was perplexed with the world that lay within the walls of this sanctuary. "The small creatures of the forest move on without a care that I am here. It is such a wonderful site to behold.", she spoke to herself. She was no longer seated, as she walked alone on the path that played a natural tune. She didn't hear anything other than the music before her. She found herself soothed.

She stopped. Ahead of her, with a white shirt on, was the young man from before. He was impishly grinning at Miu, and she remained calm. Tipping her head foward and smiling, she spoke to him. "Greetings once more. What brings you out here?", she asked the man. He looked at her, with a fierce and powerful lust deep within. She raised her left hand to cover her mouth. "You wouldn't dare try such a thing you filthy improper man. You take yourself and leave immediantly.", she spoke, quite offended as he began his approch to her.

When he finally spoke up, she was still angry. "I don't wanna do that to ya miss. I ain't that filthy now. My mamma raised me right.", he said, and she was flustered with embarrassment. He continued to speak. "My mamma seen us and wanted me to make sure you get to the village. After all, there are some bad people living around.", he commented to her with a smile. His intentions seemed true, but Miu didn't trust him. She decided to remove him from her problem.

She closed the gap between them and set her parasol on the ground as it began a downpour. She let her purse fall to the dampened ground as she ran a hand through his hair, down behind his back to remove his shirt. She could see that he wanted her, not to help her in the slightest. She kept the disgusting thought of simply giving herself up away, and continued with her deed. She tossed his shirt to the ground and smiled cynically at his exposed and certainly wet chest. It was bare with hair near the base, and she ran her fingers along the rough, edges and bumps.

He stood there and let her manipulate. Whether is was empathy or love, Miu felt bad that she was only going to kill him. After all, she longed for someone who would love who. Could love her. As she ran her hands under his pants, finding the right object to pull and tug upon. It sent his pleasure into the sky. Miu, on the other hand, lowered his pants and wasn't the least surprised he didn't have any undergarmets. She managed to slink her grip to his back, playfully rubbing him from behind.

She then reached for the kunai she savoured for the moment, lifting it up his back gently. As she let it reach his neck, she swiftly moved and held it over his neck. "I do no particularly care for filthy pigs such as yourself. Consider this my only honest gift to you.", she said as she tightened her grip on the kunai, ready to cut. "Douchebag!", she shouted as his body went limp upon the ground. She smiled sweetly as she used his soaked shirt to clean her weapon.

It was too late for her hair and make-up. It was running from the rain and her hair clung strictly to her head. It would make all the more for a convincing sob story that self defence was all nessecary to defend herself from that vile and horrid man. She delighted slightly in the thought, until her cynical and erratic side subsided. "Oh, it appears that when I get to an inn or something of sorts, I'll have to iron my clothing.", she stated coldly as she retrieved her parasol and purse, smiling and tilting her head in a good-bye to the corpse.
