Name: Kaede Hanaoka Race: Human Gender: Female Age: 17 Height: 162cm Origin: Bushu (Same as Kondo, Hijikata, and Okita) Affiliation: Shinsengumi (Unattached member. Holds the same standing as a Captain; her swordsmanship and physical prowess are Captain-class.) *Note: Women are technically forbidden in the Shinsengumi, but since it's the early days, Kondo's authority made it happen. Appearance: Rough, heavy bangs with ash-gray hair tied in a side ponytail with a large black ribbon. She is quite beautiful, but her delinquent behavior is barely more noticeable. Clothing: Shinsengumi uniform. Slacks. Casual: Easy-to-move-in kimono, about knee-length. Personality: Proud and never cries. High energy and friendly. Easily swayed. Past: Abandoned on the street around age 6 and picked up by Kondo. Kondo entrusted her to Mitsuba Okita, where she met the Okita siblings. Later met Hijikata and came to Edo as an original member when Kondo founded the Shinsengumi. Before being picked up, she was the daughter of a wealthy family (she doesn't remember), but bandits attacked and her parents died before she was old enough to know them. Relatives she was left with abused and abandoned her. (Tough luck.) Honestly, the past doesn't really matter. Habits: Touches her hair when angry. Folds her hands behind her back when lying. Scornful laughter. Likes: Kinako sticks. Dislikes: Roller coasters, bugs. Speech: "That cloud looks like poop," "Buy me a kinako stick," "Ah~? Lol (convinced)," "You okay?" "Let's play," "Huh?" "Whoa lol," "Ow," "Rough... lol." Goes to Yorozuya to slack off. Bad behavior but impossible to hate. Type to do it if she decides to; helps her "comrades," so she's surprisingly popular and trustworthy. Honestly doesn't care about anyone who isn't a comrade. Relationships: Kondo: Calls her Kaede. Like a father figure. Kondo-san can't become Shabani. Hijikata: Calls her Kaede. Her boss. Mayo-kata. Nicotine addict. Target for elimination. Okita: Calls her Kaede. Childhood friend type. His sadism is honestly a bit much 💦 Speak casually to each other. Sometimes joins in on Hijikata assassination plots. Slacking buddies. Yamazaki: Calls her Hanaoka-san. Errand boy. You have no human rights, good luck. Gintoki: Calls her Hanaoka. Doesn't want to grow up to be like this adult. Kagura: Calls her Kaede. Slacking buddies. Hates sour things so doesn't like the smell. Shinpachi: Calls her Hanaoka-san. Glasses. Errand boy #2. Kamui: Calls her Kaede-chan. Target of caution.
