Kimizu

Hailing from the village hidden in holes, Kimizu is a proud and skilled swordfighter with a knack for jumping into trouble before he should. He often gets reprimanded for not being patient enough but is blinded from change by his determination.

Background
Born and raised in Anagakure, Kimizu grew up playfully fighting with a little stick while watching the mouse soldiers in awe, envious of their red armor and the dignity that they wore it with.

After enlisting for duty Kimizu was quickly observed to be highly talented. And the higher-ups began to train him for one of the higher divisions in the army at a very young age, even for a mouse! But then came the day he had to prove his merit. His unit was assaulted by a giant snake which squashed and feasted on many of his brethren before Kimizu and his captain cut out both of the creatures' eyes before Kimizu delivered the final blow to the fleeing serpent.

Upon his return, he was welcomed as a hero in the making but reprimanded by the wise elderly leader of Anagakure. Kimizu was in part to blame for the lives lost that day due to having run into combat before the command was given. This has caused his unit to follow in afterward to try and make the best of the situation but without their formation, they didn't stand much of a chance and most were killed or mutilated before Kimizu and the captain managed to end the creature.

Ashamed and filled with guilt buried deep beneath burdened pride, Kimizu spends his days training towards his vow of reclaiming vengeance for his comrades and slaying the Emperor of Snakes. But with the ever-continuing struggle going on between Anagakure and the invasive Rats, there hasn't been much of a chance to truly chase after that vow.

Personality
Kimizu is very proud and honorable. His decree is one of absolute justice and all-righteous laws. He scoffs at those who fail to show manners and respect and jumps at any opportunity to show his etiquette or sword-fighting skills.

He is very impatient, unlike many of his kin, and jumps into combat with the same fury that a rat would. As such he is a powerful swordfighter but he lacks the patience and control needed to overcome opponents that can't be beaten through a sheer offensive strategy.

Appearance
Kimizu is a white mouse with sharp nails and a focussed gaze. He dons a red set of samurai-like armor including the traditional helmet: without a mask/visor. His Katana rests in an ornate burgundy sheathe depicting a snake which symbolizes the snake Kimizu killed.
