Zenigata Imasagi [Redux|FIN]

Name: Zenigata Imasagi
Nickname: Ima
Age: 12
Gender: Female


Height: 5’0”
Weight: 115 lbs
Appearance:
When Imasagi had hit adulthood in her clan, her tattoos were etched on her by her mother, Kotone. It symbolizes the right to wield the Zenigata Clan's Wayward Spears and High Ascendant Spears as a vanguard and protector to all. Imasagi's back is twelve spears surrounding a singular prosperity symbol in her back's direct center. These spears correspondingly glow when she can use her birth chakra element wind and the other chakra element of fire. Those chakra elements are tied explicitly into the fundamentals of the Zenigata Clan as a whole. However, as she is still in the Academy, she hasn't been able to use those elements. Imasagi wears her clothes conservatively even when finally hitting adulthood in her clan but still has to conform to her clan's methods of wearing clothes. She wears a necklace around her neck that is a miniaturized spear-shaped necklace that holds her birthstone where the bladed spear edge would be. When Imasagi was born, her mother gave this necklace to her as a gift but to implant the idea that she was the Zenigata Clan's heiress or the Clan's Queila.

Imasagi has beautiful purple or violet eyes and frequently holds a smile on her face. She has super long white hair, which Imasagi usually keeps in a ponytail, or it would overwhelm her. Her hair usually is a hassle for how many times she has to retie it up in a ponytail with how wonderful Konohagakure Village is, only because only a few times, other children usually tease her. Her body language is mixed in terms of demeanor, the stresses of being the clan's heiress, not wanting to disappoint the clan's ancestors, or the village they settled in so they could stop their wandering. Most people can mainly see Imasagi as worried or a bit troubled, but she always keeps a friendly smile towards others even if they don't show her any respect. Imasagi has, time from time, overthought or utterly forgets something she was supposed to do previously, which embarrasses her by tripping over her feet. She gets embarrassed a bit easier because she forgets the simplest things.

Personality:
Imasagi's body language and facial features looked a bit stressed out because of the importance of keeping up with her clan's traditions and being the heiress. She smiles calm and caringly since that's how anyone in her clan reacts to anyone else. Her childhood had responsibilities more than usual for children in the other clans, and that was what most stressed her out while growing up before hitting adulthood. The shift from childhood and maturity in the Zenigata Clan is rampant, mainly because of the clan's wandering status for so long as the Zenigata Mercenaries. She is understanding of everyone's feelings and frequently apologizes if she accidentally offends a person's feelings or injures another person. In addition, her parents and everyone in the clan call her Ima for a shorter name or nickname to get her attention easier than Imasagi. Everyone must follow many clan traditions, but it is more extreme for Imasagi since she's the clan's Queila. She has to lead by example since later in her life, and she'll become one of the duo leaders of her clan, the Queira Spearmaster.

Imasagi uses the fighting style of every female clan member, which is they use the Dancing Spear Style. She follows her mother's instructions precisely since her mother was the one that taught her the fundamentals of the fighting style. When she becomes a genin, Imasagi will be able to use the Sojutsu techniques that go with the fighting style. She gets slightly embarrassed by using her fighting style, but it's her way of life, and she must move like a spear frequently in motion to strike an opponent, which is what her mother said. Imasagi's extension right now before graduation is a wooden spear designed by Zenigata clan members who supply the Konohagakure Village's Ninja Academy with spears.

Imasagi doesn't want to use her fists in anger and will usually try to get someone's attention by tapping them on the shoulder instead of fighting with her hands. She is among a few people in her clan who don't ever want to use hand-to-hand combat or Taijutsu since it's not in her clan's fighting style. It isn't the tactics of using your hands to fight beneath the clan members or even Imasagi, and it's if they don't keep their fingernails trimmed to a certain point so it wouldn't hurt anyone. Imasagi usually wants to keep her appearance up the most and wouldn't want to get a chipped nail by using her fists, and the spear in the Zenigata Clan usually does most of the talking.

Imasagi loves her mother and father even if they are tough on her and usually enforces her to do chores before and after the Ninja Academy. Mostly it's how she was raised to be a diligent worker who will always do those chores since they help her teach her how to become the Queira Spearmaster later in her life. Her parents pour responsibility onto Imasagi so that when it is her time to become the next one running the clan with her husband. She'd be ready for any of the Eternal Spear's responsibilities and his wife, the Docile Spear, had done before settling their clan in Konohagakure. In addition, Imasagi is proud of the ancestors that gave the Zenigata Mercenaries, then later, the Zenigata Clan a significant foothold and enormous reputation as people who never back down from a contract or killed anyone mercilessly.

Character History:
Her parents planned Imasagi because Izumi and Kotone were the respective authority figures in the clan, the Quinsol Spearmaster, and Queira Spearmaster. Kotone and her husband Izumi wanted a daughter to carry the honored title of Queila or Heiress of the Zenigata Clan. Still, it had to deal with the overall traditions, honoring of ancestors, and the history they wanted to impart to Imasagi. They even knew how much stress it would bring to Imasagi since Kotone, born to her parents, had similar pressures in keeping to traditions. The Zenigata Mercenaries and the clan show that they are honorable and merciful to anyone who was their enemies during their mercenary days. Kotone held much kindness towards Konohagakure Village for accepting the Zenigata Mercenaries as permanent residents. Usually, it's better to plan the future of one's child in the Zenigata Clan, unlike the many clans in the other major ninja villages. There is importance to being a parent who joys being a mother or father to their child and guides them to be adults, which all children no longer be when they hit twelve years old.

Her parents taught Imasagi early on in her childhood that she held the title of Queila or the clan's heiress. Also, it gave her essential values and traditions within the Zenigata Clan, which were around as long as the Zenigata Mercenaries/Clan was around, even before the founding of Konohagakure Village and the other Ninja villages. The Zenigata Clan treats everyone as equals, and Imasagi was no different from all the other children raised in the clan. When it came to the finer points of life, as her parents would usually say, she was allowed to be a child until her ceremony into adulthood of having the clan's symbol tattooed on her back by her mother, Kotone. Her parents enrolled Imasagi into the Ninja Academy, which only a select few clans had a similar reputation to the Zenigata Mercenaries or Clan. Therefore, Imasagi was quite famous in the Ninja Academy based on the importance of her clan's merciful existence as Mercenaries throughout the entire land.

The Ninja World was always shocked by how different the Zenigata Clan treated everyone based on their reputation, wealth, power, or natural skills. There is a saying in the Zenigata Mercenaries, If one doesn't have friends, then they cannot change the world. In this case, this was primarily one of the reasons why Kotone and Izumi wanted Imasagi to become part of the Ninja World at the lowest level, which would be an Academy Student and go up in the ranks to hit whatever she desired before leading her clan. There is wisdom in being part of a system that differs from the system which helped Imasagi's clan become so wealthy and happy, with a reputation that spreads across the lands that no one could ever try to dismiss the contribution Zenigata Mercenaries have made in every land.

Imasagi was shy while in the Academy because of all the looks of jealously or anything else at her. All the while dealing with the chores and her mother teaching her the spear's path. Imasagi never once looked down on anyone in the Academy but tried to make friends, but some people couldn't handle the famous Zenigata Mercenary Descendants. She frequently apologized for misconceptions or anything Imasagi thought she had done to anyone. There was so much stress involved in trying to make friends until some of the students finally stood up to Imasagi's bullies at the Academy, only because Imasagi didn't want to stand up for herself. Imasagi had too many other pressures on her mind to focus on standing up to people who didn't understand how she felt. Her parents give her a slight bit too many chores and help her understand her position as the Queila.

Her childhood had ended when Imasagi hit 12 years old, which meant her adulthood ceremony happened in the Zenigata Clan. It happened on her birthday, right after returning home from the Ninja Academy. Her mother Kotone tattooed the clan's symbol on her back to show that Imasagi had become an adult. Imasagi used to have a slightly stressed childhood but now that stress grew with even more chores than her usual average amount before going to the Ninja Academy. Also, her mother told her that when her daughter graduates from the Ninja Academy, Kotone will be gifting her a Wayward Spear called the Morakuto Spear. Imasagi was happy that Kotone and their god had blessed her with the Morakuto Spear since it was one of the twelve spears of the Zenigata Mercenaries. Her major stressor throughout her life was her clumsiness and forgetting things that were easy to remember. Still, her mother usually reminded her by calling her Ima, her nickname.

Therefore, there are many more years on her journey, but being a new adult in the Zenigata Clan would be harder on her than most clan members. Her responsibilities as the Queila were enormous compared to the duties of others.
