Kuromi Kaneyama
"One's path is often set by circumstance of birth or surroundings. Much will meet you on said path, mists of uncertainty, great challenge from yourself or others...but also periods of respite, calm and joy. For those who understand this, those bound by duty, tradition and clan, come to know the greatest strength".
General Character Overview
Hailing from the Kaneyama Clan, Kuromi is a 4th generation trader, merchant and crafter taught in the ways of her clan. Discipline, Tradition and Duty has shaped her into an able-bodied Merchant that mainly works as a contact for her clan, being the 'face' of it to potential new connections.Held smiles often betrays her origins, that she was raised in the blade and harshness of worldly matters. Time has nurtured healing and some magic as favored choices, though rarely shall she be found without blade by hip - even if rarely drawn outside training sessions.As of late the clan has expanded its search for allies, new and old, seeking growth to better carry out their work. This leaves the 27 winters old heiress all the more busy. But with recent personal matters, occupying one's mind with work, surely cannot hurt.Link to her list of wares being sold IC'ly:
"Honest Words, Honest Wares"
Hailing from the Northern Orthardian Mountains, the Kaneyama clan has enjoyed a slow but steady rise of a strong reputation amongst those that come to enjoy their trade. Bonds of trust with customers, monetary independence, humbleness and pride in their work has seen their simple, but true motto shine through for generations.The Kaneyama Name roughly translates to "Mountain Gold". Their trade revovles in anything from hand-woven fabrics to alcohol and food recipies from locals across the Orthard, alongside much more. Import and exsport to the west remains a key factor to the survival of their western branch, with the main family supplying either raw materials or full products to the few family members maintaining the lines of trade across oceans vast.Nobility of their mountain region, the clan walks as merchants, traders and crafters along their trade routes, as such titles dosen't mean much outside the region of their village. Full of pride for their trade, yet humble, nothing less is exspected of a Kaneyama.(For a list of most of their goods, look to the List of Wares under 'Information')
OCC Information
I am always open and interested in having Kuromi meet new people - be it simply new customers, potential encounters with those from the east or even people met in the past, or whom has traded/met the clan before. Perhaps an old acquaintance from the Steppe of Azim, or a fellow trader from Kugane? There are many possibilities!As of late, I have explored the potential for seeking her a samurai teacher as well.The character is also actively seeking assistants, bodyguards, merchant contacts and in general to establish bonds to other samurai clans.Lastly, samurai clan politics interest me heavily, ranging from trade negotiations, clan relations and arranged marriages. These are generally very 'slow-burn' plots, but if you find those of interest as well, feel free to throw a poke!I consider myself a heavy-rp person, which means character interactions, development and overall dynamics are grown over time and explored for the sake of having an immersive, fun experiences that expands like a story without knowing everything about one another's character's within 5 minutes.--------------------OOC--------------------I am open to most kinds of rp, be it day-to-day, heavy or on the darker themes. I always place a big importance on the In-character context however, meaning I'm not very interested in 'one-shots'.This is why there is no sections of favorite color, or even her deeper personality in general - just enough to show her general concept and maybe interest some fellow Rp'ers^^Of course, I am happy to answer any questions there may be about the character, if you want to ask things before pursuing rp.Thanks for the read!Contact me on Discord: LadySaya#7583
