Full Name: Sabaku no Michiru

Age: 16

Personality: Michiru's a really quiet, introverted sort of person. She has a tendency to fade into the background, and randomly "appear" places when she's most likely been there the entire time. There are two basic sides to Michiru. On one hand, she's really shy and insecure, and on the other she's very smug, patronizing, and just a little self-righteous. If she thinks she knows better than you... it really shows. She has a constant urge to please others, even at the expense of what she herself may want. And she over-thinks and over-analyzes things, which leads to a lot of needless worrying. In the end, what it comes down to is that Michiru really just wants people to make sense. Such a shame that things often aren't that way in Konoha.

Style: Michiru dresses for comfort, more than anything. And in layers, because according to Miss Suna, Konoha is rather cold. The color of the sweater hoodie thing she wears is questionable, mainly because I'm lame and cannot decide EXACTLY what color it is. But it's somewhere between turquoise and teal. Let's just say that. And underneath it is a black tanktop. Then she wears a pinkish khakhi skirt with black leggings under that. Her sandals are a faded blue color with a silver anklet hanging off the right one. On missions, she wears the suna-colored chuunin vest and a medic kit... thing at her side. Her forehead protector is actually worn on her forehead and slants up to the right. I don't know why. It just does.

Family: Well, isn't this going to be an interesting story. Michiru thought she was just some random orphan, and that her parents ran away and died or something. BUT SHE THOUGHT WRONG!!! When Ichigo looked some stuff up for her, it turned out that both of her parents were alive. One was unaware of her existance, and the other was basically forbidden from seeing her. Recently, she met up with both of them. She likes them both and found a lot of common bonds with both of them, but even so relationships remain a bit strained and awkward. The family she's probably closest to would be her cousins, Hakusen and Ichigo. Ichigo looks out for her like woah, and she really adores him and appreciates everything he does for her, even if he does go a little crazy sometimes.

Abilities: Michiru is a medic, so she had MEDIC ABILITIES!!!!!!! Since she came to Konoha, she's been training under Shizune and her kinda lame medic skills have been steadily improving. She's smarter than your average bear (and lots of other things, too) and catches onto things really fast. She has a good mind for strategy, which is good because I don't know how she would've been promoted otherwise. Before she was a medicnin, she used a lot of genjutsu, so that tends to show when she's not doing medicy things in battle. What also rocks about Michiru? Her chakra control. But I guess that's kind of a given, isn't it? She's not good at weapons, but her weapon of choice is senbon and she always carries some of those around with her. She's pretty fast, but her taijutsu and stamina skills are barely middling. OH, and she has a vicious streak. Doing things like kicking a man when he's down and playing dead to go in for the kill aren't really below her (although she'd like you to think that they are).

Love Interests and/or friends: Well, there is Kin! He swept her off her feet almost the second she set foot in Konoha. And they've been together ever since. Sometimes he's an ass and it makes her emo, but they always make up in the end so it's all good. (And she has a tendency to treat him like he's five, so I guess it balances out in the end.) She's not exactly a social butterfly, but she has a small group of people she frequently hangs around. And more often than not, it's Ichigo and Nyoko. She also spends a lot of time around Makoto because they are co-workers, and generally likes and admires him a lot.

Rivalry: Michiru doesn't have anyone that she considers a rival! But she does think Shinme has it out for ever ever since that spar where she made him her pincushion.

Random Tidbits:
- Michiru loves to read and can go through massive novels in a matter of minutes.
- She hates to sing in front of people (for what is probably no real reason except a self-conscious delusion of hers) but hums randomly whenever she's happy.
- Although she may not seem like the type, she likes nice clothes and girly things.
- She has a really horrible blushing problem. Almost anything can make her cheek flush red.
- Her favorite food is blueberry muffins (and coffee, but that's optional).
