Description:
In terms of DNA she has taken heavily from her mother's side. Unlike her father Umeko has a milky,skin tone. Touching her skin one will find it to be soft and silky to the touch. With no blemishes to speak of nor any cuts or bruises it's not hard to say that Umeko has reached perfect conditions in regards to her body's first line of defense.. Her skin. How does she keep it the way it is? well it may very well just be genetics or the fact that she is a medical ninja,
Her body can be described as properly portioned, the perfect example of someone in peak condition. Standing at a height of five feet and four inches she is quiet short for a female her age though it compliments her frame rather than makes her look like an awkward teenager. She holds herself up in a confident manner and walks gracefully only complimenting her height while at the same time commanding respect. Her weight compliments her height and frame as she comes in at a healthy and dainty one hundred and fifteen.
Coming to her face and head where most people look after taking in the experience that is her body one will find themselves almost completely entranced if they weren't already. Umeko face structure is defined yet soft. On top of her head she has clean dirty blond locks, something a bit rare for a hyuga. Her hair is neatly and evenly cut and never a strand out of place. Running your fingers through the silky locks would be no problem as she keeps her hair as perfect as her skin. Her eyes are kind, though hold a curious sort of gaze. The color of her eyes which are appropriately called " doe eyes " are a as most hyuga are, a creamy white though she has a bit of a bluish tint to it.

Personality Description:
Umeko can be described as very reserved and respectful to all she meets. Growing up in a family where tradition and family were put above all, a path was set before her and so she did her absolute best to not falter. Although reserved is the correct word she is more shy than anything. In meeting new people she address them with the upmost respect and only addresses them when it is absolutely necessary. The way she addresses different genders differs widely as she will never look a man directly in his eyes, seeing as this is a sign of disrespect in her family. She will never speak to a man first unless by orders, as doing so is to engage in conversation outside of her duties which is another thing she was raised against unless it was her husband or family member. When around women she is still very respectful but those restraints that were placed on her for men are removed for women. Umeko still though does not just open up to strangers and it takes quite some time to get her from her overall professional demeanor.
Though as she is, Umeko is fairly intelligent and because she is so to herself she takes that time to asses those around her. She can be constantly seen scribbling things down, note taking as it is and eventually compiling her own personal ninja info cards. Her organization skills are borderline compulsive as she cannot stand information out of place or messy places and with permission ( or without permission in some cases ) she will set to work in fixing what she feels to be disorganized. Umeko is very dedicated in her work, everything that has been said before besides being organized is thrown out of the window when she is utilizing her medical skills. She is confident and rather open because when working towards saving a life means she needs to know everything she can without restraint. She is very sure of herself and never second guesses anything when it comes to her medical abilities and in an instant becomes a guardian over those she must protect. She feels that somethings must be done in the name of medical advancement and has no problem taking eyes, blood, or stealing KKG's in order to make her village stronger and just to overall study them.
Strictly a medical ninja, Umeko does not like nor does she want to partake in fighting. Her main goal is to be the support of the team and above all else protect others. She follows the rules of a medical ninja to a tee but does not hesitate to bite back when she is in the middle of her healing duties if she must. She rather not have her teammates get into any danger and does her part in giving them the extra boost for an advantage, playing sniper position while the rest do the dirty work close up. If she has to do single battle she uses the strength of her kkg to get her through along with her medical knowledge and knowledge of the body to stay a step ahead of her opponent. She would rather stun than kill, and never goes for the kill unless she absolutely must! because a life is a very precious thing.
Because of her reserved nature and her lack of a real friend growing up she becomes nervous quite a lot around new folks. So nervous in fact she breaks into a bout of hiccups that range from a minute to a half and hour sometimes. Any compliments made toward her would prompt her milky skin to turn a peach pink under her soft skin and quickly with her head bowed to mutter a thank you or to just scurry away to the Raikage's office and bury herself in work if she could. Umeko is though very kind and extremely understanding. She rarely judges another but this does not mean she is a push over or easily played for a fool. She knows her duties as a ninja and will if she must put them first. She is a firm believer of many over just one as the masses are much more important than just an individual ( though she knows that there maybe an instances where this is not so and so a pass is given. ) She indeed has a strong will as growing up in such traditions that were set before her has stuck with her also making her a bit stubborn in her ways. She does not think less of those who do not believe in what she does and is rather open to those with different lifestyles even if she herself does not believe them. Umeko is above all else tolerable.

History:
Just a caged bird
Umeko was born to the main branch of the Hyuga family in Konohagakure. Her life was well enough planned for her as she was already planned for marriage and a very confided life and not one made for a ninja. Growing up Umeko was a really quiet child who did as she was told and acted as a proper lady of the Hyuga clan should. At around the age of seven Umeko met her fiancé. He was a very proper but a very angry boy being two years older than she. The boy who's name was Nero hit her the first day he met her to see if she could stand against it. Umeko had never felt pain before and she fell to the ground confused and hurt. No one had expected that to happen and Umeko for the first time cried out. She cried out against the marriage she cried out against her parents she cried out against her clan. No one helped her besides her mother who took her child away from the scene. Umeko didn't really understand why she had to be with a boy like that and was scared that she would have to live everyday like that. Her mother didn't know the boy could be so cruel as he had never grown up like that. Well needless to say over a few months of long discussion and choices Umeko was allowed her freedom from her violent little fiancé but because it broke tradition she could no longer be with the main family in Konoha and so she was sent away to live with her uncle and aunt in Kumogakure.
Free from the binds
Upon learning her fate Umeko was quite heartbroken that she would no longer be with her family. She cried not to go because she loved her mother and father very much that it hurt to be ripped from them in an instant. She realized that her defiant act caused this and she quickly reverted back to her quiet reserved self upon reaching her uncle's residence. Because this was her first time meeting the side branch of the family she felt sick and nervous, developing a severe case of the hiccups for the first few weeks of living with them. She did as she was told while with them and never fussed or fought. Upon reaching the age of ten her uncle told her that she would have to attend the ninja academy in order to help around the house with rent and such. Umeko had never really known what is was to be a ninja since she was always prevented from going down that road in life and it was clear too see that she may not be ready for it. That being said the couple sent Umeko to the academy anyway but because they feared she would not be very strong she took lessons from her aunt in the art of medical ninjutsu.
A gift
As time went on she graduated the academy at the age of 13. Although she was not the top of her class she graduated to genin with an extensive understanding and knowledge of Medical ninjutsu. This was shown so much that she was taken in as a special case and her learning began further in the hospital of Kumogakure. Her missions were much different from other genin as she healed, collected herbs, and overall took missions that had things to do with the Medical field. Although this was the majority of her genin life it was not all of it. She would go on C rank missions as well as the team medic and support. Although she was rarely needed she was a very valuable asset to any team she was on. As she continued to learn and grow one day she was visited by her parents. They had heard how well she was doing and wanted to see their first child, bringing along with them two tiny children who were her new siblings. Umeko was very happy to see them but she was also saddened upon hearing that they too had a life planned out ahead of them. The visit was very short lived and this would be the last time they visited Umeko, who know only wanted to get stronger in her craft.
Climbing the ladder
It didn't take long for Umeko to reach chunnin status, mostly because her skills as a medical ninja were becoming quite invaluable. She was seventeen years old at this point and had picked up acupuncture skills during her time as a chunnin. During her exam she had proven that she could outlast a person in battle rather than beat them, she didn't aim to kill and rather aimed to stay alive. She was smart and brining in enough money to move her aunt and uncle to a much better place to live in. Around the age of 19 she was introduced to the Raikage formally and she instantly took a liking to the woman. She was strong in Umeko's eyes and devoted herself to becoming her assistant. Because Umeko was only chunnin she could not become such and this only made her work harder and harder in everything to be able to stand by the Raikage's side and help her whenever she needed. It wasn't long before she hit the age of 19 and was promoted to Special Jounin because of her skills in medical and a few other invaluable skills that she possessed.
Time sure flies
Upon reaching special jounin Umeko took some time to travel to other villages and places. She picked up lots of extra useful skills and learned about poisons. Upon the ending of her travels she reached Konoha and was hesitant to go to the village, but her curiosity had got the better of her and she went. The village was the same to Umeko and as she took the route home she felt ever more nervous. Everyone was very welcoming towards her and she was happy to see everyone..Everyone except one person, Nero. He was still around and to her annoyance married to her younger sister who seemed very sad. Umeko had only seen her younger siblings once so she knew they didn't remember her. Spending a week with the family she found that everyone was very surprised at the sudden turn of events with Umeko but no one held it against her. But the Main branch needed to be kept alive and the way things turned out just had to happen.
Umeko could not accept this but did and promptly left back to home in Kumogakure.
Upon returning she continued her studies and reaching the age of twenty went to the Raikage once more for her shot at becoming her Assistant and learning under her tutelage. The raikage accepted her and she continues now doing what she can under her wing

Writing Sample:
The moon shone bright and full, illuminating the clear dark skies, outshining the starts surrounding it. The full, soft light that the moon gave off was the only light that covered the mountain, flooding every nook and cranny that it could touch. Cold, strong winds whipped up dangerously and would be so to those not use them. In the long hours of the night Hoshimi trained under the stars that she was renamed after. During these times most if not all of the members of the Shikyo clan were asleep or at the very least patrolling the caves and mountain itself, watching over the land that they have claimed as home. Hoshimi on the other hand could not sleep, and she was unable to patrol, so the young Shikyo did what she felt was best.
" Hyaa! Hyaa! "
A tiny voice broke out against the crisp air, breaking the silence that was settled into the area. Small fists broke small chinks of rock from the craggy sides of the mountain, soft thuds echoed in her ears as her fist connected to hard rock. Hoshimi began to flinch at each punch but did not falter as she continued on. Being under lord Kurokon had made the young girl feel unworthy to be in his presence as of late. Since being rescued by her savior, Hoshimi had gotten to comfortable around him and showed little sign in regard to paying him back with her life. " Hyaa! Hyaa! " The little voice with much determination went on as her foot connected to where her fist once hit. Those in the village had welcomed her and she didn't look to far off from those who were born into the Shikyo clan. She could easily be mistaken for a blood relative with her snow white hair bouncing youthfully from her tiny little head. Though she knew she was apart of the clan she couldn't help but feel beneath them because she was not born into the clan. Her abilities though quite amazing was nothing like she saw those of the clan. As she kept up perfecting her punches and kicks sweat began to form mixing with salty tears that had seem to break down from her eyes. She wished to be stronger, to live a peaceful life, but in a world like this peace didn't exsit and as long as she lived she would have to fight, no matter how scared of the world she was. Her tiny hands and feet kept going, she had been going for hours, her pale skin turning black and blue around her hands and her feet swelling in her boots. The wind kicked up around her, the coal colored scarfed wrapped around her little face billowed in the wind
