Utsubyō

**Backstory:**

Utsubyō was born into the the world as a ninja. She was rather skilled and things came fast to her growing up. Though she quickly learned that in the modern world most ninjas have adapted to the simple life of mere citizens and left all their culture behind. Her father always told her that they were weak to abandon their past life’s hard work. Sadly Utsubyō didn’t seem to be fully on board with the ninja life. She often went off alone or with her brother to the near by cities to gain more current culture. She found the cities amazing. Filled with people and modern transportation. She really started getting into the food too. Often spending her money from missions to stuff her face full of splendid food like ramen or steamed buns. Her little secret life and her traditional life seemed balanced perfectly. It wasn’t until she went far from her home and stumbled upon the legendary weapon heavily trapped called the Kodoku. The moment she grabbed the weapon she fell to its corruption. Slowly she lost her motivations to do as much training or even visit the cities. Utsubyō would fall asleep in the forest after a mission and returned home only to find the whole village was empty. Searching for weeks and gaining nothing she would slowly lose confidence in her abilities and to ever finding her parents again. Weeks would turn into months as she continued her exploring. That would be until she would meet Greg, Slv, Cynthia and Kevin. Somewhat put off due to her depressing personality they agreed to help try and find her missing clan. Utsubyō would be against it at first but after being pulled, pushed and forced she would learn to appreciate their generosity and become friends.

**Where her name came from**

She was given this nickname when she was found by Greg and the others laying in a field of grass and being tripped over by Slv. After she failed

To comply to give them her real Slv, Greg was quick to come up with a nickname for her and that’s where Utsubyō came from. Utsubyō herself doesn’t seem to really mind the nickname but it also made her more sad as well due to the nature of the name.

**Her job as a Ninja**

Utsubyō claims to be a ninja which surprises Cynthia as she claimed people in the modern age gave up such old fashion practices and warrior traits. But still there are tribes spread across the land that still continue to flourish. Learned the ways of the ninja at a young age and grew into a proper woman. Of course people in the village did little to socialize with the outside world in the modern day.

**Personality:**

Utsubyō can be described in 2 words. Depressing and unmotivated. She really has the ability to drain all excitement within a room in moments when she talks about the realistic outcomes on situations. This causes others to avoid being around her for too long and only stopping by for quick visits. Even with her attitude being very troublesome she cares deeply for others especially the ones who stick around here. Utsubyō has put her life on the line multiple times to fight for Greg and others. She even attempted at sacrificing herself to by the others time to escape but was denied that fate as the others fought along side her. Utsubyō is very awkward around others, especially when it comes to hanging out or talking. This causes great difficulty when she talks to someone who has a loud personality. Greg is one of those examples as her body language shows when he try’s to get her to do things. And if she’s yelled at she will easily start tearing up on the spot making the situation awkward for the other person. She’s very protective of her sword, though it’s legendary statues isn’t why she holds on to it. It was something she sees as a personal treasure after finding it in a tomb while traveling. She also sees it as a reminder of a better time when her entente clan was still around. She has a weakness for cute things though. Such as her little frog coin purse that’s always on her waist. She adores cats and can be seen rubbing their belly. Though the animals seemed to catch her depressing aura and try to shake themselves free. Utsubyō is a sucker for steamed buns and ramen. That’s where most of her spending money goes too.

Sadly Utsubyōs worst fear has come true. She feared that being by herself she couldn’t take on anything. She loved having people supporting her and loved giving that same energy back at them. But now that she is alone the power of her sword has overtaken her and amplified her negative emotions by a land slide. She also has a great fear of being late to things. Often missing out on certain meet ups or jobs assigned by her village. The range of reasons why she’s late normally changes each time. But she acknowledges the problem and is always looking for improvement.

**Appearance:**

Utsubyo is a thin, but well toned girl with long blue hair, she wears a slightly designed female ninja outfit. She wears the robe top half tighter to get her chest from being exposed. Her bottom pants have detailed holes in the side to prevent dull wind resistance when she’s running fast after a target. She usually keeps a little frog coin purse tied to her waist in case she ever needed to buy anything. So always found it adorable. On her arms she has right bandages. She also wears a big puffy long red scarf that reaches the ground even when she’s standing. Sometimes it becomes a hazard and she trips over it.

**Powers and Abilities:**

**Main Weapon: Legendary Sword, Kodoku**

She uses the legendary sword named Kodoku. This legendary sword can make fighting her an inconvenience. Once the sword is drawn a blue glow forms around the blade. The blue fog seems to be the main reason for the swords magical abilities. Her opponents will slowly become less motivated and sluggish as time progresses. But the Kodoku also can effect the user as well. It greatly increases the holders negative emotions when it’s out and could cause the user to mess up during combat. It’s possible ones who have been exposed for long doses of time can be less effected by those effects. If the Kodoku sword is able to kill someone, their souls become apart of the sword increasing its sad flowing aura power.

Burning tears

Utsubyōs sword if it’s able to cut the opponent while it’s heavily filled with negative emotions can make her opponents forcefully tear up causing their eyes to burn which can harm their vision during fights.
