Appearance

Tsu Ki could almost be mistaken to be more wild beast than human. She is not your normal lady so finding her wearing make-up and spectacular dresses is indeed a rare sight. She has long, thick, very dark brown hair which can be often mistaken as being black. The length comes down to her lower back so can at times be the bane of her life and is a grave annoyance. She tends to have her hair tied back with a lone red ribbon. Her skin is rather tanned, a result of being outside for the majority of her life and being exposed to the elements. Her eyes are a stunning emerald green, they are very rich with the colour and it has occurred due to a genetic mutation within her family line.

When it comes to clothing she tends to wear very light and basic armour. She prefers the ease of movement over the restrictions that heavier armour brings, even if leaves her less protected against attacks. She wears the pelts of wild beasts, primarily the furs of wolves. She has always been fascinated with wolves even from a young age. The fur is usually attached to her armour and covers the region around her neck, over the shoulders and down her back. In fact her love for the beasts has even made her go as far as to have a headband made with silver-coloured metal wolf ears attached. To add to that she has even had small metal claws made, she has attached four individual claw pieces to her boots and had gloves made with the claws protruding from the ends of each finger. The gloves are more for appearance and are generally useless for much else, even in combat the claws on the gloves can be broken or ripped off with the minimum of effort.

Tsu Ki can be often mistaken for being male, especially considering her face is generally covered in mud and she's quite the scruff. However, up close it's almost impossible to not notice the female hour-glass form. In a way she does prefer to be mistaken as being male, it makes life at time much easier. Tsu Ki's weapon of choice is the bow and arrow, but she also ranges into using a longsword for close combat.

history

Tsu Ki was born up in the mountainous region of China to a family of farmers. It was pretty much a case of survive or die so the men tended to be out hunting which left the women to deal with the farm and manage the children and home. Tsu Ki's father had struggled to get their son, Tsu Ki's older brother, interested in hunting with the other men. Tsu Ki on the other hand seemed to be more naturally curious of the weapons that her father used, as well of being interested in the dead animals that were brought back from the hunts. Tsu Ki's father was reluctant at first to allow his daughter to become involved with the hunts. But as time passed and Tsu Ki's determination grew whilst her brother's interest had all but waned the old man was forced into taking his daughter out on the village's hunts. Tsu Ki was a natural and was not afraid to sink a blade into the chest of a downed stag. If anything she seemed to love it.

Tsu Ki flourished as a hunter for the village whereas her brother worked at home on the farm with their mother. However her desire for the wild soon became greater and greater and she spent more time away from her family and villagers. She became feral in some ways and eventually became reluctant towards being near other people. This behaviour made her unpopular with the other villagers, and eventually even with her own family. She wasn't even viewed as being human, or female, just a beast. The decision was suddenly made that Tsu Ki would be forced out of the region and sent to the lower lands with the hopes that she would resume a natural life. She was forced into a trap and thrown onto a cart then sent away.

Tsu Ki was transported to various locations but was eventually settled in the lands under Wei's control. She personally hated the life, the wide open spaces where in rare supply within the crowded cities and towns. The land was not her home and she rapidly slipped into a deep depression. By age 16 she began to get interested in the military and turned to seeking out training in order to give herself a chance of making it into the military academies for official training. In the end she had to resort to simply "becoming a man". She hid the fact that she was female and used her rough appearance to her own advantage and focused on being the simple silent guy.

The years of tricking her superiors she was eventually found out of course. A curious younger gentleman had simply spied her when she was bathing and alerted the officer on duty. Tsu Ki was removed from the unit but she had what she wanted. She now had combat and military training under her belt and a renewed determination. She used what she had to buy herself the armour and weapons but ultimately lives a life permanently on the move. She does not exactly have a home of her own, she's typically a "street-rat" to some, but a fighter none-the-less. She also remains open to becoming involved with the military if they call upon her services.
