On the outside she is cold, calm and collected. She tries not to speak much and when she does she speaks in a low pitched tone so people will take her more seriously. As the eldist daughter of several siblings and first in line sucessor to her clan she is often put under a lot of pressure. In many ways this is good as she preforms well under pressure but it does hinder her natural personality. Her natural personality, which is something most people simply will not see, is a free spirit. She is lazy when she can be. Her sense of duty keeps her laziness in line but if she has nothing to do all day...she will do nothing all day. Her favorite hobby is napping. She adores cute things but actively and intentionally forces herself to hide this fact in her professional life. It is one of her most closely guarded secrets. She says her favorite food is sashimi and while she love sashimi her favorite food is actually ice cream. This is one of many half truth's she tells about herself to most people. Given the amount of stress she puts on herself she sometimes gets bogged down by depression. She complains a lot during these times and has a short fuse. It is the only time her shell "cracks" just a little and they get to see her true feelings. Unfortunately for the viewer those feelings are usually expressed in angst and rage. [/hider] History: [hider=TLDR;] Noraneko was born into the Mayonaka clan. For more information about what the Mayonaka clan is and its brief history see below. Her father and mother were both Jounin of the Mayonaka clan. Her father,Mayonaka Akisume, died when she was only 4 years old and she is his only only child. Her mother, Mayonaka Tamari, re-married when she was six to Akisume's younger brother, Haruyama. This dynamic was somewhat political. The clan itself had seen some significant growth from a small clan of only a few families to now a larger clan of more than 30 adult members at the time. Her mother was actually the one that was the one next in line for the title of Okashira as she was the daughter of the former one. However Akisume was far stronger than her and Haruyama was second only to his brother. Upon Akisume's unexpected death during a high risk mission there was a split in the clan. Many in the clan felt that Akisume had been the true leader and so the next leader should be Haruyama. The other half felt that Tamari was the rightful leader. In order to avoid more conflict they both felt it best to reunite the clan. As a young girl of only 4 she was unable to even begin to understand the complexities of the situation. All she had known was that her father had died and now her mother must marry her uncle. Being unable to accept this sudden replacement of her father so quickly she began to rebel. She did everything she could to try and stop the wedding. She stole the headdress from her mother (with great difficulty as it weighed nearly 20 kilos and she was only 4 years old). She tried to ruin the feast. She even painted the word "no" all over the location. This gained her the nickname within her family "Gaichu-hime" which means "the pest princess". Despite her best efforts the wedding went off without a hitch more or less. She was confined to her room for the event and was allowed out only to eat if she had promised not to act up. Her life had changed greatly and yet it stayed the same. Haruyama sat in her father's chair, slept in his bed and used his bowl to eat. He brought many of his own things from his home and moved into her house. She had never disliked Haruyama before and still loved him as her uncle but she couldn't stand this thought of erasing her father. It took many many years before she ever called Haruyama "tousaan" rather than "jiisan". Her training regimen was doubled and her mother and uncle agreed that it would be best if she was the one to take the title of Okashira for the Mayonaka clan. Because of this she excelled in school but this also began her split between who she really is and who she pretends to be. Through the years she obtained three younger half siblings from her uncle, two sisters and a brother. The eldest of her siblings was a full 7 years younger than her and then the twins were born 9 years younger than her. With such a busy house she began to take on more and more responsibilities. Her mother had to do many important things as the official Okashira of her clan and her father worked tirelessly as a Jounin of the village to help the standings of the clan. The younger siblings often needed someone to take care of them and being so much older she became a second mother to them rather than a sister. Her days consisted of getting up early, making breakfast for her and her siblings, going to school, coming home to train, breaking to make dinner, going back for more training and then assisting her younger siblings to bed before she finally collapsed herself. Through the years of this rigorous and constant effort in life despite her naturally lazy and haphazard personality she developed into a responsible adult. It was at the age of 12 that she graduated the academy as a gennin with her graduating class. She was the only female in her group and the two boys that were with her were Akimichi Chokuto and Hyuga Momiji. Both were prominent ninja that showed promise and came from old families with long lines of ninja history. At first there was a significant clash between...well all three of them. Akimichi Chokuto was very very tall for his age and eventually grew up to stand over two meters tall. He was chubby but was leaner and more muscular than most Akimichi clan members. At the time he was an aspiring medical ninja with effective high damage taijutsu skills. When they first met he was about as hugable as a cactus and about as tactful as a drunk. Unfortunatly he rubbed people the wrong way quite a bit at this time and caused friction within the group at first. Hyuuga Momiji was the opposite but just as bad. He was so self absorbed with his pride and arrogance that he could hardly say two words before you wanted to punch him in the face....which Noreneko has done on more than one occasion. Momiji had a complex of having to be the best at everything which conflicted with Noreneko's similar complex to also be the best at everything. It was a healthy rivalry with a rocky road and kindled hardship. Thankfully their Jounin teacher Sagara Sorabi was as wise as he was old. He was easily in his 50's by the time they had come around but he was an effective teacher with many many decades of experience. He was a long pole fighter with advanced weapons manipulation. He also had amazing genjutsu abilities to supplement this. While he could use water and earth wind was his primary element. This came in handy when she found out her own primary element was wind. As a fate filled sense of irony so was her primary rival Momiji's primary element. Though she excelled more with weapons both of her teammates excelled in hand to hand combat. This made her the only mid-range member on her team. At the age of 13 she had mastered several differnet Jutsu both taught to her, self discovered and brought down from her clan. Her eyes had begun to develop the ability to see in the darkness. Her ears are now hyper developed for sound. Her nose was almost as sharp as a ninja dog's and she had begun to develop her "chakra whiskers" as she called them. The real technique's name is Odayakana Ike but she had trouble with such a long name. Her wind element was coming into fruition and her own stealth techniques such as transparency and silent foot techniques were now second nature. With all of this as well as her two teammates by her side they took on the Chuunin Exams and all three managed to pass. The chunnin exams were far less notable in her time than for many others. It was perhaps a bit of luck or just good timing but they didn't have to fight anyone of substantial strength till the final rounds of the last part of the exam. The most shocking thing that was that she had misindentified the strengths of her teammates. She knew she was on even terms with Momiji but she had mistakenly assumed that the two of them stood above Chokuto. She was not alone in this as both her and Momiji were shocked when Chokuto blew past them in the exams and took the first place in the finals of the last part of the exam. His medical skills along with incredible giant taijutsu and massive reserves of chakra from his fat storage made him fearsome. This was her first truly humbling experience Shortly after all three gained the new Chuunin titles the group was split up. Sorabi-sensei had taken his retirement from the active ninja world and decided upon a far less demanding job of teaching at the ninja academy. She still to this day visits him and he enjoy's their visits. Chokuto went on to lead his own squad from there and became an instant star in the medic ninja community. The vision of a "support only" style of medic ninja was shattered by his aggressive tactics and strength. Momiji also went with a team that focused on recons and information gathering. As a Hyuuga his Byakugan was the height of sensory Jutsu and she shined at his new skills. For the next few years she gained the interest of the anbu. It was at 14 years old that they first invited her to take a participation exam. Not much similarity could be found between this exam and the Chuunin exam. Firstly they asked most of the questions and the men in masks would ask her several questions under different conditions. She had apparently passed as they let her get through tot he second and third final stages. From there she was invited on several undercover missions based on stealth. In these missions there was always one or two Anbu black ops members on the team. They always watched her as if they were valuating her. It took six months from the time she was first approached to the time she was actually granted membership into the Anbu black ops. Now at 15 years old she was given a red and white mask and that was what changed the least. All missions were now top secret. She was not allowed to share any information with her family and this caused tension between her and her mother. In fact she was told she was not allowed to tell her family at all that she was even Anbu. Her mother had gone and dug out that secret on her own. On the day her mother found out about her Anbu status she came home to a full slap in the face and a long angry rant. Apparently her father had died on an Anbu mission. This information was never told to her as a child and her mother herself is an ex anbu agent. There ensued a long and vehement argument between her and her mother on the subject but eventually her mother gave in. Noreneko's face burned both from the anger she felt and the slaps to her face she had received. [/hider] Combat Information Nature Type: Primary- Wind, Secondary- Fire Kekkei Genkai: While not Kekkegenkai in the true sense it is a genetic enhancement of senses. Her eyes are reflective to be able to see in the dark. Her ears, nose and even skin are highly evolved to sense her surroundings. Also while not exclusive to the clan and not a kekkegenkai they have a technique that is called the Odayakana Ike. This is extra sensory perception that is dedicated to highly developed chakra sense. Fighting Style: [hider=SKILLZ] She has been trained to be versitile but her major strengths lay in being highly stealthy. She has mastered transparency jutsu as well as quiet foot jutsu (explained below) that allow her to move nearly undetected. With her wind and fire jutsu she is able to hit close and mid range targets with ease. Using the wind to enhance her knife work is her signature calling card. Assasination, stealth and deadly quick kill shots. [/hider] Equipment: [hider=The stuff] She is armed to the teeth with kunai and similar blades. Her signature blade is a single kodachi. It resonates well with her wind chakra and can resonate well enough with her fire chakra. She has several seals around her body where she can summon her weapons. Most are on her arms or legs but there are a few on her torso. She also has a large number of paper bombs as well. She often attaches them to her weapons but can apply them directly if needed. She has one large bomb that is actually a ball made up of several paper bombs. It looks as if it will make a huge explosion but rather it actually makes a smaller explosion that sprays dozens of paper bombs around the targeted area to be detonated later.

Specifically tigers but all kinds of cats. She owns three cats herself but none of then are ninja related. She also has a koi pond in her back yard that she helped make when she was younger. She is allergic to eggs and thus never eats them. She loves spicy foods but dislikes sour foods. She is the first ninja in her family to have blue eyes. They aren't significant in any way but it is an interesting development or old trait that has been passed down as a recessive trait. All of her siblings have brown eyes. Her next to youngest sibling is her brother Kotaru. He is the most responsible after her and isn't as much trouble. However the twins (twin girls) are highly rambunctious. Their names are Nana and Mimi. She has never been in love or had a relationship. However she had a mild crush on her old teammate Chokotsu for a short time. [/hider] [hider=THE MAYONAKA CLAN] Clan Name: Mayonaka Key Traits: Jet black hair, typically slender with great senses and reflexes. History: [hider=History Time!] The Mayonaka clan has not always been a ninja clan. They had neglected to join a village during the many years that the ninja villages had taken over as the typical dynamic of the ninja world. Mayonaka's were pretty close to being considered Yakuza up until just after the 4th shinobi war. They had made most of their money by doing discount missions cheaper than the villages would do. This also led to corruption and eventual near destruction of the clan. Just after the ninja war broke out there had been some dissonance as to how the future of the family would go about. Many wanted to go back to the way they had been for decades before and be content with their small plot in life. Most were not ninja but a few had passed down ninja skills. At this point even the most talented of fighters had only ever been Chuunin level at best. This was until a man named Mayonaka Yoru came about. Mayonaka Yoru was the illegitimate son of the Oyanbun (Yakuza or faimly boss0 third and youngest daughter. No one even knows who the father was. He had bright blue eyes and jet black hair. His reflexes and movements were way beyond anyone else to come from the Mayonakas in living memory. Being illegitimate and from the youngest and therefore lowest ranking daughter of the Oyabun he was mostly ignored and even despised. However his spirit was legen...wait for it...dary. Often known for setting off on his own at a younge age and taking leave of absences for weeks and even months on end. During his travels he saw the world and came to many conclusions about what kind of person he was and what kind of person he wanted to be. He knew his mother and he loved her. He knew not his father and his mother took that secret to the grave. He was not content with his life of the hated illegitimate grandchild. One year upon returning from his trips he came armed with a kodachi and kunai. He had trained with ninja and honed his skills with them. His great spirit and charisma swayed the hearts of several in the clan. The account of the battle for the Mayonaka name is probably exaggerated a little but the story is told that the battle waged on for a hundred days and nights. Yoru fighting against odds of 100 to 1 but with his great skill and strength managed to come out on top. Upon his victory his vassles looked to him and said "Oyabun!" but he silenced them. "No. I am not Oyabun...I am the Okashira!" (titles transfering from "boss of Yakuza" to "Head of Ninja clan". From there he marched the survivors to meet with his dear childhood friend, the Hokage, who welcomed them in with open arms. In reality he was probably outnumbered and the battle probably only lasted a day. But the legend is so much more fun to tell children over a campfire. It was known that the clan did enter the village shortly after the 4th great ninja war and has tried to find a niche in the village ever since. They are a proud clan with an ever advancing rank with the other families in Konoha. Skipping a few generations the Okashira only one generation previous to the current generation is Mayonaka Jinkoku. He is a stern elder man who had a single daughter who he married away to the strongest and most respected member of the Mayonaka clan. Both lines of lineage state they are able to trace themselves back to the first Okashira though it is not exactly known. Though the split between the two lines of lineage and the tension built in was nothing new. This was also not the first attempt to combine them. This was however the first successful attempts. The current Okashira is Okashira Mayonaka Tamari, wife of Haruyama and mother of four. She was an accomplished Anbu black ops agent Known for infiltration and espionage. Her calling card is the red and black yukata she wears and the long pipe she smokes out of. [/hider] Kekkei Genkai: Traits that are passed on would be eyes that are able to see well in darkness as well as highly adapted noses not unlike the Inuzuka clan. Common Techniques: [hider=The Clan Jutsu] Silent Foot technique are taught to children almost as soon as they can manipulate chakra. Odayakana Ike is the secret technique of the clan.
