Kuchina Nohara

## **Basic Information (continued)**

### **Background Information**

Kuchina Nohara is a girl who wanted to be a travelling shinobi, until her travels had her come across the man known as Han Nibu.

Kuchina was born in Konohagakure to a somewhat broken family. Her mother and father were divorced but they took turns in raising her. She had an older sister of about 4 years and she was on the fast track to being a shinobi herself. Since the Nohara family wasn't any major shinobi clan, her big sister had the aspirations to put them on the map. The big sister was a protegee in sound genjutsu, something Kuchina would pick upon as she got older. They were both extremely pretty girls, but Kuchina always seemed to be deemed as the less attractive one. Her big sister has this big and beautiful hazel eyes, but Kuchina had what people deemed as bland light brown eyes. This of course sparked an insecurity in Kuchina at a young age, one she would attempt to over come for the rest of her life.

As she aged she entered the Academy, following in her big sister shoes and and excelling at Genjutsu. She had an interesting in medical ninjutsu, which she would study as a secondary on the side. At a young age Kuchina shown signs of wanderlust. She always wanted to go places and see the world, and she viewed being a shinobi was the perfect way to do just that.

After graduating, she took on every mission that would have her leave the village for an extended amount of time. She was just a kid living out her dream of simply seeing things. Her actions were frown upon by her family because she was rarely home for more than a week at time, but they didn't try to halt her. Focusing more on her Medical Ninjutsu in her Genin years she was shaping up to be a great Medical Nin in the future...until the Chuunin exams rolled around. Having seen her sister participate and destroy her opponent with a mixture of Genjutsu and wind techniques, she was determined to develop a better offense. She began to lean towards her natural affinity of wind more, as prior she didn't see it as that important compared to Genjutsu and Medical Ninjutsu. By the time it she was in the arena, she was rather deadly with her weapon of choice (senbons) mixed with her newly acquired wind skills. Her opponent put up a hard fought match but in the end it was her knowledge of the human body that got her the win

Now at the rank of Chuunin she would continue training, but this time she wanted to go from country to country learning what she could about medicine in order to have a much better over all knowledge of the sort. Her big sister was now a Jounin and doing big things within the village, which kind of made her family place Kuchina on the back burner. Focusing on the more pretty and successful older daughter. This had Kuchina rather drawn to anyone who would think she was pretty for a change.

As she traveled, she would often ask random strangers this question just so she could feel better about herself. Kuchina found herself near Hoshigakure in the Land of Bears, and she would eventually stumble across a man with one blue eye and a scar than ran across his face. She was intrigued by him and wanted to know about his eye and the medical mystery behind it. Turns out, it wasn't a man at all, but a woman. She looked a bit too manly, lacking any of the curves most woman do have, but Kuchina didn't ask about it. After this woman would give her some rather vague details as to how her eye was made that color of blue, Kuchina wondered if she could do the same for her. Her insecurity about her eye color pushed her enough to want it to be changed. This lady would offer to do just that, free of charge.

Not seeing anything wrong though the whole situation seemed shady, Kuchina followed the woman to a cave a few miles out from Hoshigakure itself. With the promise of being made "perfect". After a while she would notice the woman was acting a bit...weird. She was talking to herself and at times, would sound like a man. This was the final give away that told Kuchina maybe this wasn't a good idea, but before she could get away she was knocked unconscious.

She would wake up with most of her clothes removed and replaced by some sort of black robe.This man, woman, person would feed her and often tell her she was the perfect vessel for his, her, future projects. But there was only one problem with Kuchina, she wasn't smiling enough. So out of some kind of anger, this man carved a smile onto her face by cutting the ends of her mouth. Having now ruined her pretty face out of anger, the man went crazy for a bit before officially deciding to just kill her as his plans had already gone to the gutter.

Last thing Kuchina remembers is waking up with the man standing over her, his right arm devoid of skin as if it was melted off and him bleeding and crying out in pain. She didn't know by which means she was resurrected, she just knew it almost costed the man an arm to do so. Apparently she was resurrected because the man spoke to the woman, and the woman said he needed and sidekick to help him in his over all quest to create perfection. The means of doing this was in fact, through one of the mans javelins. There was an opening in the cave and it was a rather rainy night. He used it as a lighting prod to trap the lightning and direct it onto her whilst using a resurrection technique he didn't mention. This is what caused his arm to be almost melted completely off as he underestimated the power of pure lightning, but at the end of the day was able to get the job done.

Now with Kuchina at Hans side he would begin to send her to kidnap victims. Her knowledge with medical ninjutsu as well as Genjutsu helped greatly when it came to paralyzing or tricking victims. Before she'd kidnap or kill a victim, she'd always ask if she was pretty. If they said yes, she'd remove a mask she always wear to reveal her mouth. If they then said no, she would be offended and most likely kill the target unless instructed not to. If they still said yes, she would attempt to make their mouth just like hers by cutting their mouth. Most of this would take place inside of a Genjutsu while Kuchina herself would simply take the victim, but she's been known to do it without the use of Genjutsu.

With this deadly pairing there is no telling what kind of hell may be brought to Hoshigakure.

### **Personality and Behavior**

Kuchina may still have her own conscious and can think for herself, but Han Nibu has the control over her. She does what he instructs and is rarely given the free will to act on her own. Since Kuchina has been doing these actions for so long, she doesn't mind doing them on her own free will as long as she gets to live, be called pretty, and once a month gets to wander outside of the cave and go where she wants within a 20 mile radius. This being said Kuchina is not inherently evil. Though she does these things, she does them because she feels like she has no choice. Either she does them on her own free will, or she is forced to do them. If Kuchina could break away from Han's control and still be alive she would, but since that's not happening, she's fine with the way things are. That being said she often puts herself down for having been so desperate to have been sold this dream by a strange with a blue eye.

Kuchina is a more outspoken kind of person. Being able to socialize with most people. She can make even the most uptight person feel at ease with her up tempo kind of talking. She can almost seem innocent at times. Since Han can't really control what Kuchina says or thinks, she is free to say and think how she wants, so she retains her normal personality.

### Appearance

As stated earlier, Kuchina is a beautiful young lady even though her family saw her older sister as the more pretty one due to her eyes. She wears a long black robe and a mask that covers her mouth. Her eyes are dark due to the resurrection jutsu used to bring her back to life. Her hair is long and platinum blonde. She also still wears he Konohagakure head band.
