The Ninja
Code name: Lotus File name: Unknown Primary specialty: Assassin Secondary specialty: Infiltration Birth place: Unknown Fighting styles: Master of Ninjitsu All Lotus knows about her past is that she was the daughter of an business man who had shady dealings with the Japanese Yakuza. When her father betrayed the Yakuza they hired the Koga ninja clan to assassinate him and his family. After the ninja had killed her parents and her older brother and sister, he came to murder Lotus who was 4 years old at the time. Looking down on the tear streamed face of the infant; the ninja felt a sense of longing for his own daughter who had died by drowning in the stream close to the clan’s dojo at the same age. Taking pity on the girl and also for filling his own selfish needs, the ninja took the girl back the clan with him. The other members of the clan were outraged at what the ninja had done and demanded the child be killed instantly. The ninja refused and insisted that she become a member of the clan and taught the secret arts of the ninja as a replacement for his lost daughter. His argument was that the clan was becoming weaker from the loss of many brothers in the field and accidental deaths during training and that the child was still young enough to be trained as one of them. He also declared that he would stand in the way of anybody harming the child and would fight to the death to protect her. As this particular ninja was not only the most talented of the clan but also the only living son of their Grand Master, the other clan members hesitated to act. They then declared it was up to the Grand Master to decide whether she lived or died. The ninja agreed to this and took the child to the Grand Master and explained the situation. The Grand Master had witnessed the death of his granddaughter and had felt the same pain as the ninja when she had died, as he looked on the innocent face of the child he had the same longing that had made the ninja act so rashly in the first place. He decided that the child would remain in the clan and trained as a ninja and gave her the name Lotus. Over the years Lotus trained as hard as any of the clan and became a very skilled ninja in her own right. She developed a bond with one of the other students, an American boy who had joined the clan in a similar fashion. Lotus did not know the full story of how she came to the clan, her ninja father told her that he found her near a plane wreckage and the rest of her family had died in the crash. In her teen years with the clan Lotus became rebellious, with a little help from the American boy, and started to get into some trouble with the clan. When she turned seventeen she passed her finale test with ease and became a full Koga ninja. A little while after they had passed their test the American boy asked Lotus to leave the clan with him and become an assassin team of their own to make more money. Lotus refused as she still loved her surrogate father and did not want to bring dishonour on him. Angry at Lotus for being so naive the American boy told Lotus of how she really came to the clan and that it was her so called father that killed her family. At first Lotus did not believe him and thought he was just saying that to make her go with him. She called him a liar and said that she would never go with him. The next day the American boy left the clan and Lotus was left alone to deal with her thoughts. It took her a full week to sum up the courage to ask the Grand Master about what the American boy had told her. The Grand Master looked into the face of his surrogate granddaughter and saw that she needed the truth. The Grand Master told her the true story of her family’s death and about what a risk her ninja father had taken in sparing her life. Lotus showed no emotion to her Grandfather after hearing this news, as was her training, but inside she felt a boiling hatred toward her surrogate family. That night her ninja father came to her room to talk to his daughter, as the Grand Master had told him that she now knew the truth. As her father began to explain, Lotus could not suppress the anger blazing up inside her and took her father’s sword and buried it to the hilt right in her father’s heart. Lotus then fled the clan, worried about retribution for killing one of their most prominent members. She then fled the country heading to Europe. Over the years since her flight from the clan she became a very well known assassin, only taking jobs of killing very bad people and never killing the family of said targets. The Koga ninja clan has put out a bounty for head as well as sending their own assassins to deal with her. Lotus has had many lucky escapes from the clan and others, the most recently being in which the clan had her surrounded, she was injured and she thought for sure her luck had run out when she was rescued by two extraordinary women that turned out to be mercenaries who had been looking to recruit her. She accepted their invitation to join them only after they told her that they would only work for the right people doing the right job.

Yeah you can see the glue that is holding the little clasps on so I deliberately took the photos so you couldn't see it that well, The belt was the last thing I did and I am going to work on it a bit now that she is out of the Kumite, I really struggled with how to do the belt. This is the first Custom I have done of a team of mercenary females that I have planed called the Mercies.

She looks awesome Leroy, well done
I thought she would go further in Kumite II when I first saw her. Didn't realize she was yours. And no I'm not saying I thought your entry would be shit, I just had no clue what you were planning
