Unique Abilities: She is proficient ninjutsu with just one hand to preform seals and handsigns, however, she has major trouble when it comes to using sensory and sealing techniques, taking twice as long to cast/initiate those techniques. She also has a strange sense of hearing that tends to pick up most sounds, or strange oddities. As such, she is often hyper aware to even the smallest sound like ticking of watches, or the sound of someone breathing which sometimes drives her mad.
Appearance: A slim woman who often wears dress shirts accompanied by a vest or tie or a combo of the two. Often her pants are a darker contrast with the various leather bits like her belt and boots to accompany her look. Her hair is a lifeless bone white with a mole on the left side beside her lips. Seen in her bright red lipstick and often earrings of some nature. On her left arm she has a rose tattoo, with other tattoos marked over her body. She often has a brace on her right hand, though it is unknown if it has a purpose beyond cosmetics.
History:
Born a Kaguya, Akeruseirei, was stemmed from an almost savage culture. Though they recently had adapted to the new way of the world, her parents held onto the clan's roots to its core. Since she was a child, she was trained and taught their ways, fighting from dawn to dusk to dawn, sometimes going days without sleep, fighting with pure exhaustion. She was used to a life that made it seem like it was a do or die world. But it was wrong, they were wrong. She had always seemed to come up short to her parent's expectations. In school, she passed with noting spectacular to note. She wasn't top of her class, she wasn't at the bottom either. She was above average, but she was never enough to her parents.
Even graduating, surviving, her parents seemed to discard her. Rather than seek the life of a shinobi, she took to working an honest living. The thought of their daughter being some laborer disgusted them, and at that point on, they refused to acknowledge her as their daughter. They stripped her of her name, and refused to call her their own. She worked in various shops, often working with tools like hammers, or wrenches. She left the village a small handful of times, working at various places around and within the Land of Water. She never strayed to far from home. It wasn't long until her teens that she begun to work for a delivery service. She would take goods far across the land, medicine, tools, food, and sometimes, even organs. She didn't ask what she was delivering, but often she could tell based on where she was going.
She worked hard until she was an young adult, at at the age of 18, she was promoted. Years travelling and working as a courier, she would soon inherit the business as the owner passed it off. She struggled for the most part, having declined the position at first, and later taking it with the help of her colleges. Around the age of 21, She finally begun to slow down, finding her love, Engetsu. It wasn't long after they got married, and a year later, had their son. She finally had a family that welcomed her, but the concept was foreign to her. She didn't know how to feel, how to ask around them, and living back in Kirigakure felt strange. She begun to dig her nose into work, unsure of what to make of their child. She nursed him on the job, managing all of their employees. They didn't mind all to much, but in the back of her mind, she panicked. She wanted to raise him right, but how?
Soon, the absence of her from her husband's life begun to manifest. He begun to drink, and she sought tutors and aids to care for her son. If she wasn't going to do it, surely money could pay for the better upbringing. Soon, Engetsu's health would begun to falter, and she would seek his company. She relished the feeling of love, but he was turning col,d bitter, angry. It didn't matter how much love he gave her, she could not feel the same. It was like emotions simply did not surface with her. Their own blood had been predicted to give them quite an heir, hopefully one strong enough to reclaim the name she lost, but he wasn't. He wasn't enough. It seemed like none of it was ever enough.
Chigetsu was average at best, but rather decent with a blade. She hoped that would be his saving grace. She hired the best, and many different masters to aid him, but he seemed to be too absent minded to learn any real skills. He held no knack for the business, and was an average swordsman. He was just average. There was nothing special about him. He was just like she was.
But she wouldn't have it. She was going to make sure he would surpass and take all they had to offer. He had a legacy to take over. But wasn't that the same burden the reason she failed her own family? With her husband on death's doorstep, and a son who has nothing special about him. . .
What was she supposed to do? Well, she could only do what any mother would. She would seek her son, and make sure he made no such mistakes.

Akeruseirei is a loving woman to those she cares about. However, her definition of love is twisted compared to your average woman. She's full of tough love from her warm heart. Though, her son might say otherwise. She's not the best at showing emotion, and often comes off as shrewd or heartless. She doesn't how to express herself, but she always tries to do the best for people. For her husband. she's gone as far as helping him dress and setting all of his things for the next day. She's the perfect wife in that sense, but a horrible mother. Being an only child, and born into money, she doesn't take kindly to other interactions with people. She's often hard on her son, yelling at him, but she means well . . . probably.
In business, she does her tasks with an iron fist. Do your job, or get fired. She understands hardships, and would rather you stay home and rest so you're out of everyone's way. She would rather work twice as hard herself, than to have someone put less than their best effort. She's eared a reputation among her employees, sending them home at the slightest injury or attitude. But those who have worked for her for years know her well enough to know she's the best they could get. Often, some workers would go beyond themselves even when sick, just to prove her wrong, to show they can still do their job even with something holding them back. But she still usually sends them home. She hates sick people in the workplace.
