Behaviour
Nariko is a passionate woman, prone to taking actions based on her whatever happens to catch her interest, when this happens she is quick to draw up a plan to get what it is she desires no matter what. While she is usually calm reserved and business like, She can be quick to violence when provoked which can often lead her to trouble. Her greed as well leaves her easily swayed to working for someone for the right price. She is highly confident in her skills and abilities often sporting a rather smug smile in combat or stressful situations.
History
Nariko does not know who she was born too. Left on the door step of an orphanage the young child was raised for 7 years before the rumors began to swirl. as she was brought up she was constantly abused and assaulted by the other children for her odd appearance. The staff additionally considering her an afflicted based simply on her appearance would make socks filled with frozen oranges and use the tool to beat the young girl who by the age of 7 was no stranger to fractured ribs, concussions, and far worse. To add insult to injury, rumors spread that the girl was an afflicted and was violent to the other children, claims of biting and attempting to strangle the other kids began to rise. These claims however were false, but with her appearance no one would believe she was innocent. Resigning herself to giving in she ceased speaking for the next 3 years, taking the abuse and assault with no one to comfort or aid her and no external scars or marks to prove her stories anyway. The final straw was the night before her 10th birthday, the Vice director of the orphanage seeing her as nothing more than a punching bag for his drunken abuse prepared to take his assault to a far more frightening level intending to sexually assault the young girl claiming that no one would care or believe a disgusting freak show of a kid who looked like nothing more than afflicted trash even if he were to kill her afterwards. This was the final straw for Nariko as she grabbed a nearby pen and in an act of self defence stabbed it into the man resulting in the final day at the orphanage for her on her 10th birthday. Discovered the next day the girl. curled in a corner arms wrapped around her legs. made no attempts to defend herself as the director and matrons discovered the bloody scene. Simply staring at the drying pool of blood Nariko ignored the world. Before long she was grabbed and dragged from the room before being tossed to snow covered street the last words she could hear being that of the director of the orphanage "Normal children don't look like a mismatched freak show, Normal Children dont kill an innocent man, Normal children don't stay silent for 3 fucking years! I don't want her in my building!" she could hear the smashing of lamps as the Director raged inside. As much as she wanted too Nariko couldn't even muster the energy to cry. Carefully standing up,dressed only in her sleeping clothes, the wind violently tore at her the chill seeping to her bones. Nariko began to walk unsure of where she was going, hardly caring, she made her way to an alley way by the train station before passing out in the snow.
Opening her eyes Nariko found herself standing before a massive gaping hole in the ground one so deep only darkness stared up at her. Yet almost as if a faint whisper was calling her she shakingly lifted a foot to step forward before being woken up from her dream to stare up at a man with silver eyes.
"geeze kid you scared the hell outta me, what are you doin out here in the snow where are your parents?"
Nariko simply shared back her vision hazy. she reached a hand up towards his face weakly before passing out once more.
Again she stood before the pit, the silence deafening around her. There was no wind, no sound, and yet she could almost feel the pit calling her closer. She walked closer this time remembering the tales about dark gods who existed in the times before. she reached a hand toward the black hole and murmured to herself. before opening her arms and allowing her body to fall forth into gaping maw of the abyss
Nariko wakes up on a mat of hay, easing her way to her hands she looks around to find various animals and a man dressed strangely. "I see you're awake." the man calls to her "I'll have some food ready for you momentarily kid, didn't feel right to leave you out in that cold." Nariko could hear the faint crackling of flames. "ready to tell me your name, or where you came from?"
Nariko remained silent looking down at her lap her body aching and cold her clothes clung to her frame the former snow now soaking her clothes like cold water. The man shrugs and brings her a small bowl of food.
"Eat as much as you want kid, when you feel ready we can talk." he dusts himself off and grabs some clothes down. "ain't much and its not your size but it should keep you warm and get you out of the wet clothes. just hang em here so they can dry." he yawned and walked towards the end of the room which now Nariko realized was a train car."ill check on you in a few hours"
Nariko ate as much as she could before choosing to explore learning about her odd surroundings. in a crate further to the back she spotted a small boy with strange features, before she can approach the cage a hand grabs her shoulder. "the hell? we have a stow away? what are you doin' here kid and the hell is up with your hair?"
Nariko froze and remained silent.
"Also whats with the weird clothes, what eva get away from the cage before i toss you in with him," He grumbled "Guess i have ol julius to blame for you bein here no doubt pretty sure those are his clothes." The man guided Nariko away from the boy in the cage.
Nariko found herself raised by this traveling group a circus they called themselves. many of the members were as unkind to her as the children of the orphanage but they were far worse to a young boy, the one she had seen earlier who was apparently called the "King of Dragons" despite how cruel they were to him he always smiled. Nariko envied his strength...
The only kind soul was Julius the Ringleader who taught Nariko as his understudy showing her the art of Throwing knives, Acrobatics, and how to think situations through. He was a kind and very intelligent man and far too trusting.
sometime after her 17th birthday Nariko would find the new home she had no more as a group of armed individuals had attacked the circus one night. It was then Nariko learned the man who had stopped her from approaching the young boy was smuggling drugs using the kind mans circus as a cover with the rest of the members joining his scheme. Approaching one of the men she discovered that the kind man who had helped her these years was also one of them. an Operative who had established himself as a ringleader feigning ignorance to catch the large man and his crew. Taken under his wing Nariko looked to the boys cage as they began to leave, she approached and unlocked it setting the young boy free earning a smile and his true name Jack.
Years later when the operatives defected Nariko was among those who joined them. Before leaving however she approached Jack who she had seen as a sibling and a part of her life, but knew to take the next steps she was asked to take she would need to sever that bond and to do that she would have to do somethings he had not done in 13 years.
"I'm leaving, and no i wont say why," she steeled herself doing her best to hide her emotions "S-so listen you stupid kid, i'm not your sister and don't try to follow me, even knowing you ..that makes you a liability for me." With that and a cold glare for emphasis she turned and walked away from the boy who was her only anchor to the light. finally taking her first real steps to plunge into the abyss. The pit from her dream comes to her mind once more as she makes her way to the next phase of her life
