Position: A Single Flower Petal in the Breeze



Physical Appearance


Height: 5'9"Weight:155 lbs
Hair: BlackEyes: Pink


Clothing/Accessories:
Shiho can almost always be seen wearing a kimono or yukata (summer kimono), although how she wears it depends on what she's doing. She often wears the top of the kimono off-shoulder, with an obi around her midriff to hold it up. When she's working, she'll wear the kimono bunched around the waist underneath the obi so that it exposes her legs and gives her a little more freedom of movement. She wears black leggings underneath this.

On her days off she'll wear a full kimono set with all of the layers, properly draping her legs, although she still prefers the top off-shoulder. And on special occasions, she of course brings out her most extravagant outfits: taller shoes, a longer obi with the knot worn in the front, and her hair decorated with golden pins. No matter what she's doing, Shiho always wears black lacquered okobo sandals with tabi socks. If the height or weight of the shoes has any affect on her, she doesn't show it. Though she has been known to step out of them and go barefoot in particularly fierce battles, many often get defeated by her while she is wearing them as if they are nothing more than flip flops.


General Appearance:
Shiho is a tall, pale woman with silken, midnight tresses that provide an extreme contrast to her bright, hot-pink eyes. She has soft, ivory skin, although it has not remained unmarked. Many scars can be found on her body, almost all of them old sword wounds. The paleness of her skins helps hide them. Her face has remained free of scars so far. For makeup, she usually wears shades of red or purple eye shadow, and her lips are usually painted a bright red.

Her already significant height boosted by her okobo sandals, plus the way she moves with sweeping elegance, cuts a grandiose figure. Her voice lilts on a lower range, as a mezzo-soprano. In her presence people may note the scent of jasmine in the air.

The Character

Personality:

Posted Image

Shiho Saiga has seen both the dark and light of the world and has come out a tolerant, though rather apathetic, woman. Her life has not been the easiest;her will to live has been tested, but never broken. But her experiences have left her with a big focus on herself and a disregard for anything outside of 'self'. Most of Shiho's development took place in the more ruthless world of courtesans where everyone only worked for their own gain and tried to undermine their competitors. Thus outside of the red light district in a more benign setting, Shiho's lack of empathy of those who suffer around her can make her seem heartless. And when she truly has something she wants done, she will cut any path to get there, whether it follows rules or breaks them and whether someone else will suffer for it or not. She'll also usually go about it in a covert way, not making her intentions obvious, thus she can appear to some to be a rather crafty individual.

What saves her from coming off as a wholly bad spirit is the fact that she doesn't 'want' very often. Most of the time she is content to be passive. Shiho has no craving for power or fame, but that's probably because she already had a taste of it at the height of her popularity as a courtesan. Although it was brief, she knew what it felt like to be Number One. And although the glory was great, she could never be consumed by it. By that time her eyes were wide open, and she realized how tiring it was to have to be some semblance of perfect all night and day. Her fans may have worshiped her, but their adoration was balanced by the jealousy and hatred of all of the other courtesans vying for her position. It was when she was at the top that she realized the neutrality of the world. Good things always came with an equal amount of bad.

Shiho now evaluates life by that standard. She likes to experience the world with this new understanding, likes to evaluate the good and the bad and look for the flip side of the coin whenever something happens to her. And she also searches for something that is possibly only one. Something that is good with no true opposite. Or even something evil with no balanced good.



Hometown: Born in Wano Country (NW), claims Kanraku Country (NW) as her hometown.

Abilities and Possessions

Combat: Shiho is a beginning learner of the Hasu sword style (Hasuryuu) which focuses on taking into account and adapting to an opponent's weapons, rather than focusing on dominating and distinct stances for one's own sword. The sword style features many different postures, designed to win at any price. It's adaptability includes fighting with little to no armor, with both one-handed and two-handed techniques. This style is stronger in brawls and duels rather than large scale battles. Shiho wields a wakizashi, shorter than a typical katana, and most commonly uses one-handed forms. She follows the Hasuryuu ideal of 'do anything to win' but is inexperienced fighting against the many weapons of the world, which Hasuryuu centers on teaching the counters of.
Weaponry: One iron Wakizashi named Horei (保冷) and one wooden shamisen named Kako (過去).
