NAKIGAHARA, jun
Clan Name: Unknown.
Full Name: Nakigahara Jun.
Age: Believed to be between twenty-five and thirty-two.
Occupation: Ronin, formerly a Samurai under the Hiroshi Clan.
Weapon:
Formally known as the “Sichinihonto no Samurai” [Samurai of Seven Swords], Nakigahara Jun is legendary for being skilled with a number of blades. While she rarely actually carries around seven swords, Jun does often wear five blades on her person, a kodachi and wakizashi hand from her left hip, while on her right is a traditional katana and tachi. On her back is a long nodachi, or field sword.
Sword Names:
- A kodachi called Jurojin.
- A wakizashi called Fukurokuji.
- A katana called Bishamonten.
- A tachi called Benzaiten.
- A nodachi called Daikokuten.
- As her first five blades are all named after the “Shichi Fukujin” [Seven Gods of Fortune], it could be assumed that she also would own blades called Hotei and Ebisu.
Spear/Naginata/Pike name: Nakigahara Jun could not carry any more weapons if she tried...

Height: She stands relatively tall amongst Japanese women at 5'5.
Weight: As she is in peak physical condition she weighs about the average weight for a woman her height with decent muscle mass-- around 120 lbs.
Personality
Positive:
- Scholar:
Despite her age, Jun considers herself a lifelong student, analyzing and studying everything in hope of eventually "knowing everything". She is very intelligent, studious, and a careful listener. It is rare to find her without a book, as she is always trying to learn something new. In her quest to "know everything" she often may come off a bit show-offy, presenting random facts and assuming that she knows more than any given person who she is talking to. She often feels the need to spout out random nuggets of wisdom to people who don’t ask for them, all the while being callous and difficult to those who do.
- Iron Willed:
Jun presents a cool, detached and unemotional air to the world yet lying underneath is tremendous power, extreme strength, intense passion, a strong will and an even stronger sense of justice. Possessing a penetrative mind, she is always aware of the games that others try to play, due to the fact that she is a connoisseur at reading people. Quite stubborn, she expects things to go the way she wants. She often tends to dominate and control anyone that lets her, or anyone that she finds weak, for the control gives her the sense of safety.
- Deeply “Religious”:
Upon becoming a ronin, Jun took to the life of a hermit and religious zealot, dedicating much of her time in shrines professing her Shinto faith in a quest to enlightenment by way of the sword. Like the famous samurai philosopher Miyamoto Musashi, Nakigahara Jun feels that through intense training and religious dedication one can transcend their human form. Unlike the aforementioned philosopher, Jun has issue keeping to the straight and narrow path and for this reason she picks and chooses what aspects of the faith she wants to withhold.
- Genuine:
Nakigahara Jun is one of the most genuine human beings one could ever meet, almost to a flaw. Able to defend her opinions with a sword, Jun is very open about how she feels, regardless of who it may offend. Is this necessarily a positive trait? Not always, but in many cases, it allows the few people she interacts with to trust her.
Negative
- Childish:
Although, she has had a long list of life experiences, Jun maintains a sort of childlike innocence and in some case ignorance. Despite her being extremely book smart when it comes to calculable fields like science, and mathematics, she lacks a certain level of street smarts due to a lack of interaction with the outside world. She is easily tricked and led astray, but her intelligence is usually able to get her out of the bad situations that her lack of common sense gets her into.
- Conspiracy Theorist:
Although only in her twenties, she feels that she has lived long enough to know that you cant trust anyone in the world. This normally would be a pretty good philosophy to live by if she didn't take it to such an extreme. According to Jun, all alleyways are dangerous, all ships are rigged to sink, and all governments are corrupt. There is always a higher power out to get her, or so she thinks. Her paranoia led her to teach herself how to fight in the first place.
- Enigmatic:
Jun is herself. She acts how she wants to and that can be like an arrogant brat or a sweet lady. She have few personal connections to anyone in the world, preferring to be in solitude than in large crowds. Se doesn’t try to be like anyone else, and it shows. She is truly her own person--which cause many to misunderstand or fear her.
- The Pleasure Seeker:
Despite Nakigahara Jun’s strict religious beliefs, she picks and chooses what she does and doesn’t believe based on the fact that under the rough exterior is a certain wild side. She enjoys alcohol, tobacco, and sexual deviancy.

It looks good it you can just put your characters icon in place of the ones there and her name under it in the bold spots that would be great. Also the height and weight need to be in feet and inches, and pounds for the weight. As far as your weapons she is welcome to them, but they will effect her speed and weight we down since she has so many.

I'm sorry! I was in a rush to go somewhere so I completely forgot to put the name and didn't have time to make an icon. I fixed all that right up for you though. As for my weapons, I know she would be weighed down, in fact there's a reason for it :3 Thanks for your help!
