**Haku Yuki** (雪白, *Yuki Haku*) is an orphan from the Land of Water, and a descendant of the Yuki clan. She later became a shinobi under Zabuza Momochi's tutelage whom he later partnered with, ultimately becoming a Mercenary Ninja. She initially met her end at the Great Naruto Bridge, before being revived by Kabuto three years later. She would join the Family shortly after.

## Personality

Haku is a good-hearted, compliant, and eager shinobi, believing that a person becomes truly strong when they have someone important to protect. Despite her talent for battle, and incredible abilities, Haku disliked needing to kill others in her role as a tool, and avoided doing so whenever possible. When forced to face an opponent, Haku did all that she could to avoid inflicting great harm, even putting them into a death-like state to prevent them from fighting further, as she did to Sasuke during their battle. Before she met Zabuza, she suffered from a belief that she was unnecessary, and served Zabuza because she wanted to feel useful. Her loyalty to Zabuza at times even appeared akin to seeing Zabuza as a father as upon hearing from Kakashi how much Zabuza actually cared for Haku, she cried in joy at learning this. Because of Haku's pure, kind-hearted personality, Zabuza believed, despite her deeds as his tool, Haku would be able to thrive in heaven while he was condemned to hell.

Since joining the Family, she has become a mentor of sorts to the less-experienced members as one of the Family's more powerful fighters. Upon her return, the death of Zabuza troubled her and reinvigorated her feelings of worthlessness since in her eyes she failed as his tool. Through the encouragement of Naruto and fellow Family members, she would decide to carry on in his name. Haku has also shown a vengeful side, showing no mercy to the ones who stole Zabuza's sword.

## Abilities

One of Haku's defining battle-traits is her sheer speed, speed is so tremendous that she was able to quickly close the gap between Zōri and Waraji and take their swords from them before either of them realized what had happened. Zabuza was visibly shocked that Sasuke could outpace Haku, although this was only due to Sasuke applying chakra to his feet to increase his speed. Haku's speed, however, increases to incredible levels when using her Demonic Mirroring Ice Crystals, making it appear like she was in all the mirrors at once even though she was just travelling in between them at extraordinary speeds.

### Nature Transformation

Haku's most noticeable power is the utilization of water and wind-natured chakra to create Ice Release. Her power over ice grants her special techniques, like the Demonic Mirroring Ice Crystals, which surrounds a target with mirrors that Haku could travel between and attack from, even if her opponent is in the sky. During flashbacks of her youth in the anime, Haku was shown to release large spikes made of ice when she was about to be killed by her father. Defensively, she could create an ice dome that is capable of blocking multiple explosive tags at once. Furthermore, it has been implied that Haku could affect the weather, causing localized snowfall. She can also use two elements individually, such as the Thousand Flying Water Needles of Death, which uses her water nature to concentrate the surrounding water into needles to attack enemies from all angles.

### Intelligence

Haku possesses a very detailed knowledge of human physiology, thanks to Zabuza's former Anbu training. Her knowledge is great enough that she could disable an opponent with acupuncture by hitting a precise point on the body with a senbon, to cause immediate death or a temporary appearance of such. Haku is also very keen-minded, as she had been shown to have great observational and analytical abilities, capable of quickly determining a way around an opponent's technique or strategy. Haku also knows a lot about herbalism, as she often collected plants to use for medical purposes.
