[hider=Kariru Tsuyo][center][img] http://oi57.tinypic.com/qn9s89.jpg [/img] [b]Basics:[/b] [b]Name: [/b] Kariru Tsuyo [b]Age: [/b] 36 [b]Gender: [/b] Female [b]Birthplace: [/b] Amegakure --- [b]Known history and secrets: [/b] [b]Personality:[/b] Kariru is very loyal to her country and to those she respects and loves. However, she fails to love herself. She is a very self-destructive woman and fails to respect herself on many occasions. This is what began her alcoholism and this only brought on worse traits. She became very irritable and also began suffering from some severe anxiety relating to social situations, so she focuses on just completing missions and bettering her skills, this has been positive for her skill for a ninja but detrimental to her social life, which is practically non-existent now. In battle Kariru is ruthless and technical. Being a medical ninja she knows the fastest way from point a to b when it comes to taking down her opponent. She tends to systematically cripple targets or go for a quick death. [b]History:[/b] Kariru was not born into any clan and as such her parents were not sure they wanted her to become a Kunoichi at all. It was actually Kariru herself that pushed herself to begin training in the yard for the entrance exam to the academy. While her mother supported her decision to train as a Kunoichi for Iwa, her father detested the idea of her putting her life on the line for the thankless masses. He refused her begging to join the academy, until one fateful day when Kariru was studying the art of Ninjutsu in the family room when an intruder broke into the house, threatening to kill her. Kariru took advantage of the fact that he did not think she could fight and broke his leg and then once he was on the ground gouging his eyes out. So for her seventh birthday, she was allowed to join the academy. Kariru had graduated by the age of eight; flying through every curriculum piece, save for Genjutsu, which she had no talent for. She took the exam and passed, not quite with flying colors, but she had a sound grasp on most of the concepts, good enough for a Genin. She was assigned a team and like just about every other Genin they soon set out on their first few missions together. The team was solid; they weren’t incredibly talented any of them, but there wasn’t anyone not pulling their own weight. They got their missions done on time and kept their noses to the grind stone, they were good ninja. Eventually, the annual Chunin exams rolled around, Kariru was only nine years old and her team leader hesitated a great deal before allowing her access to the challenge. Her proctor was a man by the name of Sebaru Markor, who would go on to become the Tsuchikage. That year the exam was held in Iwagakure, and as such, Kariru and other natives to the land had a home field advantage. They progressed well enough until it was decided too many Shinobi had reached the final round, thusly preliminaries were held. Both of Kariru’s teammates were knocked out of the competition, leaving only Kariru remaining in the exam. At the time of the preliminaries, Kariru only possessed a weak form of the powerful chakra enhanced strength technique and the chakra scalpel technique, which she could only use in a medical context.. She fought against an Aburame from the Leaf. She barely managed to overwhelm him enough to get a knockout through a sucker punch, barley making it past the preliminaries. In the one month gap that the exams allow between the second last and final rounds, Kariru’s team leader taught her how to use her elemental chakra. Learning in the process that she possessed a latent affinity for Yin and Yang release Jutsu, but still too inexperienced to make any use of them. She was, instead, taught how to use the chakra scalpel technique offensively. This in combination with her enhanced strength allowed her to come out successful in her match, effectively dismantling her opponent one muscle at a time. Kariru was a Chunin until the age of seventeen, when she was asked to become a Jounin for the first time, she however denied the request instead remaining a Chunin helping with proctoring. While she was on a mission with one of her old teammates and leader in the land of waves, they were kidnapped. They were tortured for what felt like a week or so, Kariru was not allowed to see the others, kept in isolation for a week, not allowed much sleep at all, but she was determined not to break. This was until she was forced to drink excessively in an attempt to make her talk. They forced her to drink mass amounts of alcohol daily, starting her addiction to the drink. By the time a rescue team found them, her teammate had succumbed to injuries from the torture and Kariru would never be the same. She became a Jounin at the age of twenty-two, quitting drinking around the same time. She had her first squad, hadn’t had a drop in quite some time and was feeling good about it, mentally at least. Physically the withdrawal was affecting her. She was slower, more irritable and callous towards her team. Her fighting, getting sloppier each day. Eventually on another mission, this time in the Land of Iron, one of her Genin was killed by a stray kunai, took it to the throat, from that point on she kept drinking, to avoid the symptoms of withdrawal.
