Brief Character Background:
Kichō was born to Kikuko Shinnōke, current head of the aristocratic Shinnōke clan. Little is known of the clan, apart from its apparent affluence. However, it is rumored that they descended from a clan of powerful samurai that once settled in Sunagakure. The clan has produced very few Shinobi. Instead, it’s members contribute to the sharing/cultivation of resources, the arts, and politics. Nevertheless, Shinobi are often tasked with protecting members of the Shinnōke during times of need or travel outside of their jurisdiction. This was how Kichō’s mother became entangled with her father, Toshiie Okabe.
Now a rogue criminal, Toshiie was a Special Ops level Ninja at the time, tasked with serving as Kikuko’s temporary bodyguard. The two quickly became entangled in a torrid affair that led to Kichō’s conception. However, this romance was short lived as Toshiie went rogue soon after for reasons that remain unclear. Six years later, Kichō’s father returned to claim his daughter and teach her the shinobi way. He snuck into the main Shinnōke clan residence and attempted to kidnap Kichō for the first time. Her uncle, who was the rightful head of the clan at the time, caught on to the occurrence and quickly rushed to his niece’s rescue. While he managed to put a stop to the abduction and cause Toshiie to flee, he was gravely injured in the process and succumbed to his injuries hours later. Prior to his death, he named his sister, Kikuko as his successor due to his son being a mere child at the time. Kichō’s near kidnapping would leave a mark on her life as well as her Clan’s for years to come.
Growing up, she lived in fear of being taken against her will by the man claiming to be her father (who was now known as one of the most notorious criminals in history), to which her loved ones responded by never leaving her alone. Overprotected would be an understatement of her situation, and still Kichō lacked the feeling of security she so craved. As a result, she was often kept out of the public eye despite being next in the line of her clan’s succession. It was not until her twentieth birthday, when her aunt hosted an event in her name to find her a suitor that Kichō entered society for the first time. It was there that she first met Gaara, who was in attendance to finally meet the extended head family of the Shinnōke clan, unbeknownst to her that he would be her eventual match. More tbd.
