Personality: Kaori is what many would consider lazy. This is only partially true, as she is a relaxed and generally slow moving person, often giving off the impression that she is in a daze or a state of confusion. In reality, she is complete in control of her actions and is acutely aware of her surroundings. This facade allows her to remain mostly inconspicuous and get away with napping in class from time to time, since half the time she's ignoring class and writing notes that have no pertaining to anything that is actually going on. Her perception of others is almost nonexistent, as she'd prefer to simply be left alone, and fails to interact socially with others unless forced to. She is not a leader, but a passive follower and a reactionist.
Biography: Born and raised a few miles outside of a temple of monks, the village she lived in was one of peace and serenity. It was not one that young Kaori disliked. In fact, the tranquility of her little village, which farmed enough to sustain itself and the temple, is what gave her her lazy attitude and outlook on life. There wasn't a need to interact with other people, because everything was provided for her. However, by the time she was twelve, Kaori had grown tired of the lifestyle, and began to train her body. It wasn't combat training, just physical and muscle training. At fourteen, she arrived at the temple to train under some monks, who taught her two of the five types of Monkey Fist, however only a year and a half later she was kicked out once they found out she was practicing black magics. So, she permanently adopted the style of the Lost Monkey to give off a false impression, and went off to find and join the Shaolin School.
