Konoha Koinumaru, or Konoha for short, is a descendant of the Koinumaru family, a clan legendary spirits who have mastered the ninja arts. Growing up in the village, she was taught the family fighting style by grueling training in the forest and mountains.
Having passed her final test, she was given the choice to stay in the village or venture out on her own and experience the world. It was a tough decision, but hearing the stories of the world from her grandmother inspired her to go off on her own! She now travels the land, bumping into people from all walks of life!
Feel free to whisper/message me if you wanna RP! The preferences are mostly just character ones, if you have an idea feel free to shoot it. I don’t have very many dislikes. An alt from Paragon Phoenix.

Visiting the city for the first time went great! Kitsune_Twilight showed her around and even showed her that she is able to eat people! Twilight was more than willing to be Konoha's very first meal~ (Not that she has any clue WHERE Twilight ended up going after being her tummy for so long...) [2024/06/01]

Lore

Growing up in the secluded Koinumaru village, Konoha’s world has always been tiny. From an early age was told wondrous stories of the outside world by her grandmother. They enthralled her, the idea of giant tower buildings, huge lakes of water, and all of the various beasts and people made her curious to learn more. This often led her to pester her grandma to tell more stories, however noticing she was making her annoyed, she instead chose to leave the village and snoop around the area. It didn’t take long for the village to notice the young pup was missing, and they quickly sent out to find her.
Initially, Konoha was in very big trouble, but with her grandmother being one of the village elders, she decided to put her enthusiasm to good use. From then, she was rigorously trained in the Koinumaru clan’s arts for the rest of her youth. This all culminated in her passing her final test at the age of 19 and officially being made a protectorate of the Koinumaru village. Excited for the job and to finally see the outside world, she loved ushering away unwelcome visitors, ensuring no beasts got too close to the village, and doing her rounds. After a few months though, the wonderment of the job started to dissipate. The excitement was gone and most of her days were spent sitting in a tree for hours, only to have nothing to do.
Noticing her shift in enthusiasm, her grandmother soon brought it up with the other elders to see if she could be allowed to leave on a trip around the world. Overjoyed at the opportunity, Konoha gladly accepted the idea. After a very heated discussion about the possibility of Konoha being tracked back to the village, it was decided that due to her training, she could go out and see the world herself. Giving the most of her love to her village before leaving, she set off into the woods to see what the rest of the world was really like.

Personality

Konoha is very energetic and unable to sit still for long periods. She tries to release her energy when dealing with a task by giving it her all or doing exercises. Her speech can turn from playful to respectful quickly if she realizes she’s speaking to someone higher than her. Despite that, she often refers to herself in the third person by accident, a habit she’s trying to break. If she’s overwhelmed, or faced with constant loss, she can partially shut down and lose her more happy-go-lucky side. Konoha can be very stubborn and hates to learn new things by herself. She often needs someone to ease her into something new that she’s never done before. However, once she gets a hang of it, good luck getting her to keep quiet about how she’s learned it.

Abilities

Given that she is a descendant of the Koinumaru clan, she is well-versed in the ninja techniques that her family holds. This also extends to her more in-tune body when it comes to magic. She has an unnatural connection with all flora. Konoha can manipulate plant matter to rapidly grow vines and plants or sap their energy to heal.
Physically, Konoha isn’t very strong without her techniques. Her feather-grasp technique allows her to pick up and lift those much bigger and stronger than her. Konoha can also create afterimages of herself to confuse the opponent. Her control over them is strong enough to have them interact with physical forms.
Her agility is immense. She can move and relocate within the blink of an eye. This includes burrowing into the ground and using a bamboo straw to stay hidden without giving away her location. Combined with her smoke bombs, she can very quickly relocate, seemingly appear out of thin air, or burrow into the ground instantly.
Her main attacks are her fists and kicks, though if those prove inefficient she can fall back on her plentiful shurikens and kunai.
