Kasumi Mizuno
Kasumi venait juste d'attraper son souffle du combat plus tôt alors que le jounin parlait, mais une explosion du dessous du jounin a renvoyé tous les shinobi renaissant. Heureusement, il ne semblait pas que quelqu'un ait été immédiatement blessé... mais ça allait changer. Très bientôt. Les Swordsmen sont apparus, bien qu'ils n'aient pas parlé longtemps avant d'attaquer. Kasumi a reconnu les épées - dans une certaine mesure - mais tout ce qu'elle savait c'était qu'elle devait bouger. Elle se sentait comme si la lame avait été à quelques centimètres de sa vie malgré le fait qu'elle était assez rapide. Il a juste montré la force et la vitesse des Swordsmen - et le fait qu'ils ne devaient pas être triflés avec. Elle se demandait si la plante était importante pour eux, ou s'ils étaient juste ici parce qu'ils avaient vu l'occasion de tuer.
Quelques-uns des autres chunins et Minaru ont pu endommager les sabres, à la fois avec un kunai et une lance, et même Minaru avait détruit une des épées des hommes - une partie, de toute façon. C'était extrêmement impressionnant, mais Kasumi n'était pas un combattant de première ligne pour faire de telles choses. Elle s'est retrouvée derrière Kota, les mains sur le dos alors qu'elle essayait de penser comment ils allaient tous survivre à cela. Même tous ne correspondaient pas aux Swordsmen. Ils devaient sortir d'ici, n'est-ce pas? Sa coéquipière semblait assez confiante, elle souhaitait seulement pouvoir partager cette confiance. Malgré le fait qu'elle était chunin, elle n'avait jamais rencontré quelqu'un comme ça. Leur intention de tuer était épaisse dans l'air, aussi épaisse que la brume elle-même. Elle doutait que sa musique chakra soit utile ici. Elle ne pouvait penser à aucun moyen qu'elle puisse manipuler son chakra facilement ou avec suffisamment de précision avec un tel pouvoir tout autour d'elle qu'elle n'affecterait pas les sabresmen avec ses chansons, aussi. Alors elle était coincée, en train de se cacher derrière une amie d'enfance. Si elle avait eu le temps, elle aurait détesté à quel point elle avait l'air faible, mais il n'y avait pas ce temps.
Au lieu de cela, elle attendait la direction du jounin et aidait ses coéquipiers - mais elle le pouvait. Elle n'allait pas abandonner face à la peur. Si elle avait eu l'intention de le faire, elle aurait aussi bien pu ne pas avoir bougé des coups d'épée et l'avoir fini alors. Elle espérait qu'elle pourrait être utile. Elle savait que c'était probablement le moment où elle finirait par utiliser son jutsu offensif, mais elle ne le ferait pas à moins d'être dirigée vers ou quand elle savait que le moment était venu. Les poignards animés étaient rapides et seraient presque invisibles à l'œil nu dans cette brume - et n'importe quel chunin ou jounin serait en mesure de les manipuler s'ils faisaient assez attention. Elle garderait les armes près, cependant, afin que les Swordsmen n'aient pas eu d'idées sur l'utilisation de son propre jutsu contre elle... pas qu'ils aient besoin de faire une telle chose. -- Sensei... dit-elle en regardant Sutemasu. Elle sait que la question a déjà été posée ou formulée à plusieurs reprises, mais elle doit être répétée en raison de la situation périlleuse. "Quel est le plan...?
“Life is for the living.
Death is for the dead.
Let life be like music.
And death a note unsaid.”

Pictured here in the most uncomfortable of traditional dresses, Kasumi's typical clothing choices are shinobi staples - plain dark blue leggings, black sandals, and a lighter blue flak jacket with a black shirt underneath. Her hair is worn down without the ornaments and flowers. Her hands are bandaged at all times from wrist to the tips of her fingers, however, to assist her in focusing her chakra to her hands and playing her harp. She is fairly tall and light, weighing in at 45kg and standing at a height of 155cm. She does retain the chain in her hair, centering an (inexpensive) quartz crystal on her forehead which is also occasionally used as a center of chakra. Her harp is very light and is typically worn across her back.

Psych. report.
Medical secrecy applies.
【Personality】
Kasumi is surprisingly strong-willed. She would throw her weight around, if she had any. She despises sounds that aren't musically pleasing to the ear and will certainly let you know about such crimes. She does sing, on occasion, while playing her harp but you'll be dead before you know that she does not do it in front of others.Her resolve is strong in negative situations and she is the never the first to give up. On the same note, however, she is not the most positive of people. There are few people who are comfortable with her dead-pan demeanor and humor, but deep inside, she is kind, caring, and fiercely loyal to the friends she does make. 
【History】
Kasumi's mother and father are shinobi from Otogakure originally, but through their travels, they have settled in Kumogakure and retired from missions, preferring to be involved in Kasumi's life however they can stick their noses in her business to assist her however they could. Her parents are much older, her mother having gotten pregnant with Kasumi after their "retirement". She doesn't know much about what her parents had put themselves through, but the fact that they were still alive was testament enough to their ability. Kasumi was, at a very young age, taught to play multiple musical instruments. From the drums to the flute, she has played them all at least once by the very strict direction of her parents. However, her very first love was playing the harp. The gentle, beautiful sounds it created were always her favorite. It wasn't until the age of six that she started displaying ability to potentially become a shinobi. The option was offered to her at such a young age and she readily agreed.
Her parents weren't convinced that their only child, a girl of such small stature, could be accepted into the Academy or even survive. Even to this day they aren't convinced despite her status a chunin now. She passed her exams with acceptable scores across the board, but she never seemed to specialize in one certain thing which could be considered her greatest weakness. The only thing that has stuck with Kasumi are jutsus directly connected to sound or music. For that reason, she had a specialized harp created and trained vocally also in case she was disarmed. Her father now teaches music at local schools in Kumogakure, constantly giving Kasumi 'advice' about her jutsu. Her mother has also hopped on that boat, nagging Kasumi about missions that could be too difficult or if she comes home with wounds.
Suffice to say, Kasumi prefers silence or music rather than talking. Any time away from home is better than home, but she does love her parents, knowing their intentions are good.

【Dreams and fears】
Kasumi's dream is to get everyone to stop underestimating her and worrying about her all the time. She wants to be seen as the capable kunoichi she is and possibly make a name for herself one day. Her ultimate goal is to become an instructor at the Academy someday and teach other growing shinobi about the world and how to survive in it. She feels that she can be an example that a book is not to be judged by its cover.
Her fears are bad singers, unpleasant noises, her mother's worried tone, broken harp strings, and failure.

Gathered from evaluation reports after missions.
【Fighting style】
Kasumi is most skilled at short or medium range. She typically requires a partner or team to take the brunt of the physical force, preferring to supplement her team's chakra and techniques with her support melodies. However, she is not a sitting duck if left alone. She does have some jutsu melodies that can paralyze, confuse, or maim. Her jutsus are exclusively involving sound or air. She is also not helpless if disarmed from her harp due to her ability to mimic the melodies her instrument makes. She is extremely fast and acrobatic to make up for her lack of physical strength, but as such, this typically only aids her in escape or gaining distance. 
【Ninja techniques】
C rank techniques:
Offsetting Sound
Chakra Enhancing Music 
【Custom made techniques】
Jutsu name:
Dolore Daggers - Pain Daggers, 痛みの短剣 
Rank:
A
Range:
Short to Mid
Description:
Kasumi strikes her hand across the harp in one swift motion, sending out sound waves in the direction that she is facing that are capable of twisting the air that the sound travels through into daggers. The blades of air thicken and continue to appear if she continues to play and can be deadly if the target is not fast enough to dodge the daggers. The daggers are animated and can move in any direction. They can be manipulated by teammates through their own jutsus (such as wind jutsu).
Jutsu name:
Decelerando - Decelerating - 減速する
Rank:
B
Range:
Short
Description:
Kasumi plays a slow, low toned melody. She manipulates her chakra through the harp to control the sound so it affects only enemies/those she chooses it to. Those affected are slowed down by a minor or major amount, depending on the amount of chakra dedicated to the skill and the ability of the enemy. The jutsu cannot last longer than five minutes at full strength and such a situation would exhaust her totally. The jutsu loses its effect slowly the further the target is from her, beginning at 5 yards.  
Jutsu name:
Doppio Movimento - Twice as Fast - 倍の速度
Rank:
C
Range:
Short
Description:
Kasumi plays a fast, lively melody. She manipulates her chakra through the harp to control the sound so it affects only allies. The amount of chakra used determines the effect. Allies affected are capable of moving faster in many aspects - creating hand seals, movement, chakra flow. It is chakra intensive and cannot be played long.

Weapon, tool or object name:
Kin'iro no kumo no hāpu, 金色の雲のハープ, Golden Cloud Harp
