Description
Here we have the lovely Naoko, the Dojyukenshi of Ryūjin Spinos, one of the Five Elemental Kings. She will be a major player for the Siler Crime Family as a member of the Elemental Kenshi throughout Jyukenshi. She is also Antonio's first Childhood friend--as in before Mizuki. Also worth noting is that thier respective beasts, Spinos and Seiryu, have a deep connection as well.

Now, let's talk design. Since Naoko's Dojyu is a Spinosaurus, a famous semiaquatic Dinosaur, she has a profound connection to Water. That's why Blue was chosen for her color scheme. I know her weapon looks like something out of an RPG but it is actually based on a real-life Japanese weapon called the Kamayari, or "Sickle Spear".

Since we lacked a proper Judoka before her I decided to give that art to her. Judo also plays a big part in her story, as you'll read below.

That's about it for notes. I enjoyed creating her and I hope you do as well!

Naoko Mōri

Age: 35

Height: 5' 5"

Weight:156 lbs.

Birthday: November 17th, 1987

Birthplace: Kyoto, Japan (Has U.S. Citizenship)

Occupation: Elemental Kenshi Leader, Olympic Judo Champion (formerly)

Combat Specialty: Kamayari, Judo, Aquakinetic Mastery

Favorite Food(s): Seafood (All kinds but Sushi is her favorite), Pasta, Pizza

Likes: Journalism, Poetry, writing Short Stories, Swimming (she's an excellent swimmer), History (the good and bad), Sci-Fi (Star Trek and Gundam are her favorites), Martial Arts

Dislikes: H.U.M. and people who think like them, Sports (aside from Judo of course), Cats (she’s allergic and not fond of them), Horror Movies, Guns, Bugs, Slugs

Short Bio: At first glance Naoko seems, by all accounts, a normal young woman. Her parents aren't tied to some ancient clan nor does Naoko herself partake in any out-of-this-world adventures. She didn’t even serve in the Third Great War. In fact, the most interesting thing about the Mōri are that Naoko, her little brother and their father are direct descendants of the warlord Motonari Mōri. She is more than a little nerdy, with an unabashed love of Star Trek and the Gundam series among other things. But these facts, and her robust IQ of 189, aside, most people think of Naoko as the sweet, honest, good-natured girl next door.

In reality, she is more interesting than that--far more.

First off, in addition to her prodigious intellect, Naoko is a gifted Martial Artist. Her journey began at the age of five, when her father, Toshiro, began teaching her Judo. Toshiro, himself the 1975 Japanese Olympic Champion, was amazed at how quickly his young daughter took to the art. Naoko kept at it throughout her life and, at 25, was an Olympic Champion herself representing her adopted homeland of the U.S., where she earned the nickname "Judo Goddess" for her genius at the art. Though she has retired from the Olympics in favor of a modest journalism job at the Durham Herald-Sun she retains this lofty moniker and is still widely revered and respected, not just in the U.S but her native Japan.

However, it was her moniker as "Judo Goddess" that caught the attention of Jonathan Siler , Godfather of the Siler Crime Family. A wise and opportunistic man, Jonathan saw Naoko and her skill as a valuable asset and invited her to lunch to try and win her over for his Elemental Kenshi, an elite task force within the Family. To the Godfather's absolute shock, he barely had to try.

Five years after her Olympic Journey and the fame that came with it, the Mori family faced a tragedy. That tragedy came in the form of who else but H.U.M. Having been soundly trounced by highly-skilled Martial Artists time and time again, the Heads of the godless organization decided that they needed Martial Artists of thier own. So, they sent out thier scientist goons to hunt down the world's finest fighters of all disciplines. One of those targeted was Toshiro, Naoko's father. But Toshiro blatantly refused, not knowing that H.U.M wouldn't take no for an answer. In thier monumental arrogance, the scientists of H.U.M had plans to use science to program the techniques of the targeted Martial Artists into thier new line of Androids called "Com-Bots". So, when Toshiro refused again, the cowardly scientists injected him with a powerful drug to knock him out when they were afforded the chance. Naoko's mother, Meiko, who was home alone at the time, could only watch on helplessly. When Naoko found out, her life was shattered. She swore to her mother that she would find and bring back her father by any means necessary...

And Naoko meant every word of it, much to Jonathan's happiness.

Despite her standing as Leader of the Elemental Kenshi, a position made possible by her intellect and keen knowledge of Military Strategy (a gift from her ancestor Motonari), nowadays Naoko's life is a roller coaster ride of emotions. Her moral and upstanding personality is often at odds with her new job. Though, as an Elemental Kenshi, she doesn’t participate in the Family's darker dealings, she knows very well that she works for a criminal group. But her love for her father and her determination to save him from H.U.M's clutches is what keeps Naoko going. Thankfully, she is well-liked by Jonathan and her fellow Elemental Kenshi members Charles Martel , Ingrid Lindgren-Siler , Gabriella Hayes , and new recruit Oscar "Huitzil" Nunez , who joined to help take down the drug cartels plaguing his beloved Mexico.

One worry that her new friends can't absolve, however, is the fact that, as an Elemental Kenshi and a Dojyukenshi, she will undoubtedly have to face the rival Seijyukenshi Faction. Among them is Naoko's dear first friend and the one who encouraged her to pursue her Olympic Career: Antonio Holman , the Seijyukenshi of Qinglong...

More info coming soon!

Dojyuken: Naoko's Dojyuken is the Spinoyari, a Kamayari carved from the bones of Ryūjin Spinos, one of the Five Elemental Kings of the Dojyukenshi Faction. It is the strongest Water-based Dojyuken and, as such, also commands Ice, Steam and Mist among other hidden abilities. In addition to Judo, Naoko is also adept with the Yari, or Japanese Spear, making this weapon ideal for her.

NOTE: HeroMachine was merely the vehicle for my character's creation. All characters I post are thought up, created and belong to ME.
