Birthday: May 1st
Village: Otogakure no Sato
Rank: Jounin
Her ancestry dates back to the supposed 'main' branch of the infamous Hyuuga Clan, although presently there is not real differentiation between the branches. Suzuran is the eldest of three siblings, to one brother and one sister. She was born in Otogakure no Sato, in the well-established Hyuuga mansion. Many Hyuuga clan members scattered the world, with only a few ending up in Otogakure. The day she was born, May 1st, signified a day of happiness and blessing to her parents, so to honor the tradition of naming the Hyuuga female offspring with a name of some kind of flower, her parents had named her Suzuran, after the lily of the valley. It was also because the flower meaning symbolized purity and happiness that they thought their eldest daughter should be named one of the most beautiful flowers that bloomed in May. As a result, many of her close family and friends would call her either Suzu or Lily for a nickname.
It was expected that she would possess the byakugan, although the first time Suzu activated it was by coincidence. She had been training in simple hand-to-hand combat with her father, something she often did with him more as a pass time than real training, when he proved to have a major upperhand, for all the right reasons. Pushing past her limits, she unknowingly activated the kekkei genkai to fight against her father. This initial activation surprised and scared her, as she was only seven years old, and she fainted shortly afterwards from exhaustion. Although the byakugan was unlike most other dojutsu where the user would have to 'activate' or 'develop' it through meeting certain emotional or psychological prerequisite, Suzu hadn't expected that she would be able to use the Byakugan, especially since her parents told her that not many of the Hyuuga descendants possessed the kekkei genkai.
Suzu realized then and there that she was more than destined to be a shinobi, to serve the village and protect those who were unable to protect themselves or who were weak. She entered the academy at around twelve and started her long and harsh journey to becoming one of the best kunoichi of Oto. She had no extreme aspirations, but she wanted to make her family proud and not taint the reputation of those who possessed the byakugan. When she first entered the academy, she had thought about becoming a medic, but her rigorous training through the years and her thirst for knowledge expanded her horizons beyond that of being just a support role. Suzu began to crave power and longed to show those who looked down on her or women in general that she was just as capable of holding her own ground when she depended on it.
She climbed the ninja ladder at a relatively steady speed. She didn't want to be one of those cocky people that thirsted for recognition. But, she proved not to be a pushover either, being promoted to a Chuunin only shortly after becoming a Genin. She took on as many missions as possible, believing that only through missions could she see the world and gain some real-life experience. This helped her in her training as well and it would take her a few years as a Chuunin before she was granted a second promotion to Jounin rank, allowing her the chance to lead a platoon for the first time. The extra responsibilities kept her in focus and Suzu began to understand that she was made to be a leader.
Her goal now is to become the Kage of Otogakure, to serve the people better and keep the land safe.
Suzuran stands at five feet seven, with a muscular build than most women her age and height. This was primarily due to her training in Jyuuken and her focus on sparring to increase both her muscle strength and stamina. Unlike most Hyuuga clan members, she doesn't have the purple-white pupils that are the signature of her clan, except for when she activates her byakugan. Her natural eye color is an orange red (only aesthetic purposes). The most notable feature would be the tassel of red orange hair that is at the center of her bangs, which is a direct contrast to her long blonde hair and coincidentally is the same color as her eyes. She often puts up her hair with chopsticks, the way geisha or priestess do.
Instead of the regular jounin uniform, she prefers to wear things more 'feminine'. Of course, she would wear the uniform at important events or when called upon to, but on most missions, she prefers wearing kimonos designed specifically for her to move fluidly. There are slits on on the side of her kimonos usually, to show her legs, much like that of a china dress. This allows her to not be restricted especially when in battle. All of her clothes are a mixture of gold, white and red and must be of silk fabric. Instead of the usual tabi and shoes, she wears heeled boots. Her headband is usually hidden somewhere or strapped to her arm.
Perhaps not the most perfect balance of logical and emotional, Suzu believes she is somewhere in the middle of the spectrum. When faced with decision-making, she is logical and rational. However, when faced with things that are close to heart, like when her family or friends are in the equation, her judgment can be clouded by emotion. She is loyal to her village, to her people and has a big heart to care about everyone. Because of this care, she can often be very blunt when she speaks, not afraid of hurting people's feelings. In fact, the closer she is with a person, the more blunt she becomes, thinking that there is no need to sugar coat her words if it is out of good intention. As a result, some people can become easily offended by her words and she is too confident to realize that she has hurt someone's feelings.
She is often seen as 'playful' or easygoing when she talks to strangers, half influenced by her naturally confident personality. But this is also because she doesn't want people to know exactly how and what she is thinking, a tactic she learned when she was young. She doesn't trust people easily, even though she pretends to, the walls to her heart and mind high. She is meticulous and careful on most occasions. Again, she makes an exception when those closest to her are in danger, where she is not afraid to stand up and fight. Some think that she has two personalities or is bipolar when it is only the result of her keeping people at arm's length. The woman always smiles even when she is angry, which can be somewhat scary.
Shurikenjutsu [Journeyman]
Contrary to all of her other proficiencies, which focus more on hand-to-hand or close range combat, shurikenjutsu is the primary long-ranged proficiency that Suzu excels in. She has a keen eye for her target and has learned through the years to catch most of her targets with a variety of different weapons, not limiting to shuriken, kunai and senbon. Through constant training and practice, she has mastered the ability to hit at least one or two targets successfully within sight, although she has yet to master this when the target(s) remain in constant motion, such as when they are running or in mid-air.
Stealth [Journeyman]
A natural proficiency for all shinobi, the woman loves showing up behind people and scaring them. She has learned to almost erase her footsteps on certain types of floors. She also learned to swim, although not completely so that her movements underwater can be unprotected. Her primary pattern of movement includes jumping on rooftops or tree branches and springing on her targets semi-unnoticed. Because of her hair and eye color, camouflage remains something that she needs to work on though.
Hyuuga Heritage「日向一族」 [Unranked]
Blessed with the ability and the possession of the Byakugan, she learned and activated this when she was young. Since she was able to activate it, she has guarded this gift of hers and continues to train relentlessly.
Byakugan「白眼」 [Unranked]
The all-seeing eyes of the Byakugan was passed down from her father genetically, and because of this, she has had to adapt to it. Not only do her pupils change color, the spectrum that she can see once the it is activated is something she took many years to get used to. She believes that there is much more potential to her kekkei genkai than the all-seeing aspect of it and continues to train to use this in conjunction with the Jyuuken.
Gentle Fist 「柔拳」[Veteran]
The primary fighting style practiced by Hyuuga clan members, it inflicts internal damage through attacking the body's chakra pathway system, which Suzu can now use in conjunction with her Byakugan, she is able to disrupt up to sixty-four of a person's chakra points in battle, using the signature eight trigams techniques. Most of her attacks are swift and accurate when she uses Jyuuken with her kekkei gekkai. She is also able to use some forms of the eight trigams jutsus to defend herself.
