"I change my blades like a girl changes clothes for sometimes they get to drenched in woes..."
Name: Jane Cassandra Adechi-Himitsu - AKA - Keres
Alias: The Saint of Maiden Warriors
Gender: Female
Age: 23
Personality:The Assassin -Let me set something straight in case you get confused in farther portions, sentences and paragraph of the Lady Keres's personality, she is an assassin first and foremost so if a contract was accepted she would do her best to fulfill it. Driven not only by loyalty but by the feeling of dishonoring her word and losing her pay check to finish any contract accepted, if it is accepted, Lady Keres is willing to go through extensive means to achieve her goals. That is to say, it is highly unlikely that you will survive the encounter with her and more than likely that your body will end up disappearing or, depending on the contract, be scrubbed clean of any trace of her and instead just left outside of whatever area specified to leave you outside. Part of her utterly ruthless, brutal and highly efficient skill, style and methods, "the assassin" is something that allows her to tactically navigate through most situations with ease. Essentially, her personality is one of an unforgiving, ambitious, extremely confident bitch that is willing to do anything to achieve her goals, well, almost anything, except for things that involve betraying close friends, though she will do that if necessary.
Unfortunately, for every target of hers, she has never, ever failed at achieving her means, except for once, and that was the only battle where she decided not to kill someone, that someone being [Redacted] at his start. For that contract and that contract only, she let them go, a feat that was only due to the honorable feeling acquired once she knew there was someone like her, as good as her out there, and she measured her skill against his. This extends into her obsession, her hobby, the hobby of perfecting herself, and being an assassin, being the assassin to hire, ensures that she is making progress in this area of her life, no matter the outcome which is almost always in her favor. This is essentially a little "quirk" in her personality that forces her to allow herself to kill, maim, torture, manipulate, etcetera, the very same quirk enabling her to allow [redacted] to live, though whatever means she uses to change her mindset this rapidly are unknown. Fortunately, for most targets that she is set out to kill, the Assassin in her ensures that their death is a quick one, unless they are supposed to be tortured and maimed before death, maybe they won't even be killed, maybe they will just get their asses handed to them and their bodies forever injured.
Whether there be torture, humiliation, mutilation or just outright killing you involved in her latest contract, mark my words, the Lady Keres will succeed for the Lady Keres never, ever fails in her goal of killing her next target. The assassin inside of her won't allow failure to happen and if she "fails" the contract, she will hunt you down anyways, returning your head and the head of anyone that got in her way to the person who hired her, free of charge, just to make the point that she is the best in the business. She is out there outgunning the likes of [redacted], out cutting the likes of [redacted] and performing acrobatic feats superior to that of the [redacted], Lady Keres is truly the best assassin on the planet, possibly the second best thief and one of, if not the, best martial artists ever to live. Once you are in the Lady Keres's unforgiving, penance giving glare, the sights of her blade and gun, you will die, for she never, ever fails, no, instead she succeeds at every goal given to her, faster and better than anyone else. A master in every single type of disarmament, well versed in the anatomy of humans and thousands of other creatures, knowledgeable in the psyche of even the most insane beings, the Lady Keres is one of the deadliest people you will ever encounter, so prepare to die.
Honor -Many do not understand Lady Keres's capabilities in the fields of martial arts and various other things, far fewer losing their understanding of that when they discover that she also has a spiritual side. Trained by her teacher in both the physical and spiritual side of Martial Arts, she engulfs herself not only in the studies of physical perfection but in the studies if spiritual perfection, following some kind of moral code that equates to honor, loyalty and other things. Lady Keres's code of honor and morals cannot be underestimated in any way whatsoever, for that would be a failure on your part, meaning that she is absolutely and utterly loyal to her contracts, and her allies, even old allies such as [redacted], until betrayed or the contract is called off. Being part of what makes her as dangerous as she is, her honor is a closely guarded secret kept hidden by another part of her emotional and psychological make-up, a mask that has the real Keres in it but is hiding another part of her. Many more people will not understand the spiritual side of Keres because it would catch them off guard, stunning them and ensuring that they don't really get her because of the utter and complete differences in what they heard about her and the real her.
Due to being as spiritual and honorable as she is, Lady Keres has done things that most would think her incapable of doing or completely and utterly unwilling to do, even if she was being controlled in some way most wouldn't believe she would do this. At one point in time, she has gone so far as arriving to aid the [redacted] via threatening someone who pushed the [redacted] around, trying to take up leadership of the [redacted], alongside every single being ever recruited into the [redacted]. Her honor has driven her to aid old allies, such as [redacted] when he was injured by [redacted], she aided him in regaining his skills, though it is unlikely that even old allies would avoid her death giving fists if she accepted a contract on them. Fortunatly, for her friends, it is unlikely that the Lady Keres would accept such a contract on an ally, even one she was slightly neutral about, due to her honor code, one that almost always ensures her loyalty, for all but [redacted], that is, she seems quite obsessed with him. Continuing on the last sentence, she has an obsession with testing her skills against [redacted] and the entire [redacted] Family, meaning she likes the feeling of defeating them, though it is almost always to test the development of their skills.
Keres also has the side of her that gives mercy, no matter how rarely this side shows itself it is quite evident that it is very powerful and influences Keres in nigh unnoticeable ways that even the best trained eyes on the planet can't see. Maybe even Keres herself is unable to see what this side of her that gives mercy to a select special few is doing to her, but it is almost certainly tied to the spiritual side of martial arts, enabling her to make choices that matter. Having gained the majority of her apprentices through a method of mercy, apprentices such as the [redacted], Keres's honorable and mercy giving personality may be more prevalent than last thought, though the activity of it has grown less and less noticeable over the years. Even some of her old masters had garnered so much interest that the choose to keep them alive, much like she choose to outright pull the [redacted] out of a river after stabbing him in the head.
Obsession -Lady Keres's so-called hobby is more of an obsession that has, very much so, led her to develop into the cold hearted, effective, and, oddly, at certain times, merciless and honorable assassin she is today. Seeking to utterly perfect her own fighting style, Lady Keres's will comes from extensive training in dozens if not hundreds of martial arts in a period of time that was disturbingly short, allowing her to seek out more masters. These "Masters" of Keres's were the best in their chosen martial art, the highest order of grandmasters, and she manipulated them into teaching her what they knew, learning what she could, before killing them if they no longer gave interest to her or couldn't offer her anything else. Though merely human in both mind and body, many will argue that Lady Keres's skill in hand-to-hand combat is utterly unmatched, and it is the hope of many that, if encountered, she will spare them like she spared the [redacted], even training them, we will get into that later. Her obsession is also the Lady's weakness, proving to be an issue for others and making Lady Keres a danger to herself as she seeks out the best fighters, through contracts or otherwise, on the planet and attempting to kill them merely to test her skills.
Despite being a glaring weakness to the best trained eyes on the planet, such as those belonging to [redacted], Lady Keres's obsession, or hobby, is simply a strength as well in that it fuels her to be better, it fuels her to do what she does. Without this wrongfully named "weakness", she wouldn't be able to do what she does, she would be unable to control her emotions, she would lack the ability to literally control her blood flow and how much she bleeds, she would lack the capability to be immune to truth serums. That means that Lady Keres wouldn't be who she is today without this piece of her personality, this hobby, this obsession, this weakness, and this unforgiving strength that manages to put her in between a rock and a hard place while managing to get her out. Fortunately, she recognizes it as an obsession, unfortunately she doesn't recognize what it has done to her as bad, seeing it as something good, and that may be what it is, but it may be something entirely different as well. For those around her it is a giant, complex problem that most will not be able to comprehend, for those, well, some of those, working on the same intellectual level as her, it is a beautiful and complex painting that makes her who she is.
After recent run-ins with gadget users, Keres has begun to recognize the need for more than just her fists and feet, a development that some like her can't begin to understand. Proving to be adaptable, extremely intelligent and very capable, even more so before, she's customized her suit, taken up several oriental weapons, namely Katanas, kunai, shuriken and senbon, along with advancing to the "next stage". Lady Keres has officially recognized the need to evolve and adapt, despite her obsession, learning that hitting and kicking are not the only useful ways to use her body, ensuring that she has become deadlier as time passes over. Even though some would think of it as abandoning her former goal of perfecting herself, her natural body and her natural mind, Lady Keres recognizes that the technology and techniques with said technology she uses are the natural, and in fact many of these pieces of "technology" are part of several different martial combat styles. The Lady Keres you used to know is still here, just with a piece of her soul gained back, the piece of her soul that effectively utilizes weapons in a way that allows for her to merge them with her combat style, no matter how rarely they are used.
Motivations:Jane's fears and motivations go hand in hand, basically, they propel her to do things most would never do even in circumstances that would require it. This particular being is propelled by an insatiable need to uphold her honor and, by extension, is fearful of losing her honor during a battle. Additionally, she is propelled by the fact that her clan is few and she must expand its members, both honorary and blood-related, so that they may survive in one form or another, even if that means she has to rip out her own heart and put it in another for them to have her abilities and pass it onto another. So, she fears that she would lose her clan's future if she were to die, which in a way is not untrue since her clan is so few. Jane wishes to have an apprentice later on in her life, one which she can pass on her knowledge to so she hopes to develop herself into.

Race: Caucasian
Hair: Pink
Eyes: Lavender
Body: Lithe & Athletic
Ethnicity: Tsuchi no Kuni
Height: Five Feet Eight Inches Tall
Weight: One Hundred Fifteen Pounds
Appearance:Look into the eyes of the Goddess of War, the Herald of Conflict, the Dragon Lady, the Fatale of the Trinity, the Waker of the Pantheon, look into the lavender eyes of the very thing that will one day bring your destruction, Keres. Once embracing rage, hatred, and power, Keres now embraces the more selective arts of confidence, seduction, charm, and being happy for herself so that she may not fall into a dark pit of evils once more. Still she has evolved past her mortal binds and while her humanity is abandoned she is no longer a shell of her former self but instead a Goddess redefined to answer questions without speaking, move without making sound, and carrying an aura of both death and life, evolution is such a wonderful thing. Even though the woman speaks her words with a silver tongue and moves like an angel with the grace to match any ballerina or the best of shinobi these words, these mere actions, do not reveal her true self. These things don't reveal how the ageless Kunochi looks down upon the world, how Keres
hates and abandons her human weaknesses, strengths, emotions, self in battle
just to rid the world of one more insect, yet out of battle she is more than human.
Keres stands confidently at five feet eight inches tall allowing her superiority to occupy the air like a superior military occupies the land they have conquered so that all who oppose her do indeed think twice before getting in the way of her gentle grace. A healthy complexion that has a glow to it mixes with a mature but young body are masked by a wide variety of different items ranging from dresses to armors both heavy, medium, and light, her elegance as she jumps around the battle field making many a man and woman breathless at the sight of flawless skill. Towering over most of her gender Keres isn't the tallest person but, indeed, she is one of the tallest women you shall ever meet in whatever journey you have decided to embark on during your life so that the fates may organize your fateful encounter with the young woman, and it is assured to be a most memorable occasion. At times the War Goddess' eyes carry mercy for those who deserve it, even her demeanor screams out that while not holding herself higher than others Keres sees people in different ways with each and every single person, animal, thing, place, and event leaving a unique impression on herself. Lately her eyes have turned from the emotionless, cold, barren landscape that they once were to a melting pot of emotion, compassion, and even lust aimed at those who have earned her trust and even glaring at those who have betrayed it, unless of course the situation calls for a mask in which case she
is a Kunochi after all.
Intense almond shaped eyes tinted lavender with specks of darker purples and lighter pinks mixed in accentuate the rest of her body perfectly, essentially becoming living accessories that Keres often shows off so that she may stun an opponent. Deep and enchanting are the two words one would use to describe the endless pools of purple that shift like the unsteady surface of the sea, the color of her eyes rippling and changing through darker and lighter hues to appear as if they were ripples of water. Twirling and twisting like a storm the ever changing pupil within each of her eyes can be changed at will or just let loose like a wild animal sent to rampage through a village, whether the shape be a spiked or smoothed cat-like slit or that of a diamond you know that the circle is a rare shape indeed for the irises of this Goddess show her inner emotions. All of this is achieved through a simple aesthetic mutation that may very well evolve into something else one day, but for now Keres' dominant genetics distinctly affect any implants she has as her eyes way to flourish into a potent Doujutsu of the War Goddess. Crafted by Nyx herself the empty souled Keres hopes to continue to unlock the secrets of her eye and this journey of exploring power won't just be limited to her eyes' aesthetic qualities but instead to less mundane things and more potent powers.
Cascading down their face and the nape of Keres' neck are strands of silk-like lavender colored hair with a pinkish tone to it that perfectly matches her eyes and her glowing complexion so that it may flow in whichever one of the four winds the Saint of Maiden Warriors summons up. Trimmed to perfection not a single hair is out of place nor has split ends on Keres' head, instead they are combed daily and taken care of as if one would take care of their treasured family heirloom which just happens to be one of the most lethal katana ever to be made. Like a whip her hair flings forward to tease her opponents in battle and like a blade their edge is sharp and not only is the flesh of their enemy bruised but so too is their skin cut through like it was mere fabric made to be shredded using the simplest of blades but instead was captured by a blade of legend. Longer than ever with the revitalization of her genetic structure, their hair is still short enough to be hid under a hood and to allow for better movement but long enough so that Keres may utilize hair-based Ninjutsu to add a new level of lethality to her arsenal. Unlike her last hairstyle this one is cut with
both combat efficiency and style in mind so that she looks even better than she used to while kicking ass, as the strands ghost against Keres' cheeks she prepares for her next encounter whether it be for love or blood lust wherever they may be.
