Personality:
There's no real way that you could describe Ketan, she's just different. A bit of a sociopath, she's often seen alone, yet she doesn't mind that in the least bit. She prefers her distance, and plans to keep it. Her appearance may give you the impression that she's kind, open, and sweet... but Ketan's the exact opposite. Precautions are taken on every move she makes, nothing can be out of order. After all, as an aspiring kunoichi, one little mistake can cost her life. If someone were to introduce themselves to her, she'd simply reply with, "M'hm," and nothing else. Ketan tends to keep things to herself, not giving away any informtaion until seen fit. As much as others hate to say, they know that she's a bit of a sado-masochist. She can't help but feel pleasure upon her or another's pain or failure. Feeling no remorse upon another's death, some are intimidated by this, but she goes around as if there's nothing unusual about it.
She's blunt, and straight forward. When she has an opinion, she won't keep it to herself. Don't expect her to beat around the bush and get dolled up versions of the truth, she'll tell it to you, truthfully and completely, sometimes a useful thing, sometimes her greatest flaw. Most of the times, Ketan maintains these three adjectives, rude, stubborn, and obnoxious. She won't take anything from anyone; particular defensive of herself and those few close to her. Once she has her mind set, it's not going to be swayed. Obnoxious, in a way that she thinks too highly of herself. Just because she's been looked down upon at times, Ketan returns the outlook to everybody. There's nothing she can't acheive with a bit of work and analyzation. Her follicles are thin and smooth, though contradictorily hard to manage. After dried, it seems to never listen to what Ketan tries to do. Much of her morning preparation is spent fixing her hair.
Those few people that she considers real friends, are truly lucky. She won't think twice of standing up for them, sacrificing something to help them. As long as they need her help, Ketan will try. Her full trust is put into them, and they had better not break it. Once broken, it's rarely ever regained. Anyone who insults her, a friend, family, is immediately seen as an enemy, annoyance, someone to watch out for. She can hold a grudge, and for quite a long time at that. A mere apology won't win her back, one has to prove to her with something grand. In truth, Ketan loves spectacular, loud, attention-grabbing things, and that's the best way to get through to her.
Arguments. Something that doesn't occur regularly in Ketan's schedule. If it does, it is more of a one sided fight. She hates yelling, and prefers to state her opinion calmly, sometimes setting of the other side even more. She'll usually walk away from an arguement before it gets too far; trying to keep a balanced mind, but one will know when they've gone too far. Her eyes will flash once, and she won't say anything else, just immediately laying an attack on her opposer.

Character Appearance
Eyes: Ketan has the expected Ketanachi eyes, a piercing gold colour. She fails to break her gaze, feeling weaker if she takes her eyes off one first. They show that she is strong as her eyes never waver, her distance from others, as they seem to give a sense of emptiness. When she has lost interest or focus, they seem to be glazed over or glassy. Ketan's eyes maintain the quality of child-ness, large and round. They have short and thick lashes until the end, where they lengthen out noticeably.
Hair: Pale blonde hair is usually done casually. It has a slight tan or peach color to it even. Layered thickly, Ketan has bangs that reach her chin, while the rest of her hair reaches her mid-back. A small pair of antennas appear unwillingly, a part of her hair that she despises. When training or fighting, it is put into a tight bun, while the bangs are let down. Under any other circumstances, it is done in a loose braid, falling gently behind her.
Attire:
[This is Ketan, excluding the wings of course. Her skirt is a strechy and flexible material; with a small split in the side for extra movement. Shorts are worn under this just in case.
**Height: 4'11"
**Weight: 76 lbs.
**Bloodtype: AB
Family and History

Ketanachi Shitana - Father [Aged 33] Status: Jounin.

Family History:
The Ketanchi family line has never been the best of Konoha, but most know of it's name. Orgininating from the Hidden Mist Village generations ago, no known reason was given as to why they moved. For years on, the Ketanachi family has stayed in Konoha, and established a well deserved reputation.
Shitana had always wanted to be a ninja since birth, as his only major goal. Upon turning 8, he was welcomed into the academy, and he couldnt' have been happier. He strived to be the best and came out 2nd of the class. Reaching the Jounin rank was his goal, and that he did. Unlike most who become leaders of genin teams or are recruited by ANBU, Shitana merely receded from the ninja life after receiving this rank. His new focus, his daughter; yes, he was upset that his child was a girl instead of a boy, but she was still going to become a ninja, and the best at that. He pushed her when they trained together, trying to make Ketan better than his former classmate's students. It was more of a competition for him, rather than his child.
Arikami has started out a nija alongside her future husband. But over the years of training, she realized that she couldn't stand the injuries, the death, nor the risks, pulling out before reaching Chuunin rank.
Instead, Arikami started a small bakery. Where she finds things peaceful and relaxed rather than the riskiness of a shinobi. She can't help but dislike the fact that Shitani is a ninja, and is pushing her daughter to be also. But she feels that the Ketanachi name must be carried on as a ninja family. Upon giving birth to their second child, a male, Shitani withdrew his training from Ketan, sure that his son would make it further than a female, persisting with the gender discrimination.
