Age: 27

Bounty: 100 Beli. ((Killed an anonymous man.))

Species: Human.

Occupation: Musician/Assassin

Allegiance: Pirate (Dark Isle Assassins)

Home Village/Ocean: North Blue.

Appearance: Sakura is a tall, slender female. Her curly blonde hair reaches no further than the back of her neck. Her skin is pale white and her eyes are a Sea Green. Her nose bridge is slender, while the main body is rather round, making it look familiar to a button. Her neck is slim and Sakura's chin ends rounded. Sakura mainly wears a black miniskirt and a tight fiting black tank-top. She has a scar going around the left side of her left eye.

History:
Sakura began her life on a small island in the North Blue mostly composed of a small mountain range. These mountains were like a second home to her, where she played and spent most of her time. It was here that she practiced her music from the beginning.
Sakura was not brilliant as a child, but loved to play the Violin, but whenever she tried to play, the people of the town complained and asked that she stopped. Her mother was sympathetic for her, knowing what she was going through, being a musician herself. Once the town had quietened down, Sakura's mother told Sakura of a place where she used to practise when the town began to "riot" at her door. "It is a wonderful place, with perfect ambience." She would tell Sakura in her heavenly voice.
Though Sakura now knew of a safe and perfect place to practise, her mother still worried. Sakura had no way in defending herself, but the mother knew next to nothing, forgetting all of her own fighting stratigies. The mother, later that day, took young Sakura to her friend who was a renowned Assassin (On the island atleast, as she was the only one.)

After several years of training under the Assassin Korosu, Sakura (now 15 years old) found herself adept at using a small blade, and travelled to the mountains and to the "perfect" cave to finally practise in peace. After finally reaching the cave, Sakura sat down and began to play, and thus began her journey into Music.
Not watching the time, Sakura finally left the cave at night. After walking for a while, Sakura began to felt that someone was following her and kept turning around every few seconds. Eventually, Sakura grabbed the knife that tucked in her waist and began to walk faster. After a while, Sakura felt a hand on her shoulder and instinctively stabbed the knife in the person's throat. As the person fell to the ground clutching their throat, Sakura began to stare at the person, watching his movements before running home. Once home, Sakura immediatly told her mother what happened. After a few moments of contemplating the situation, her mother decided to send her to the closest island by herself. She got Sakura all she needed and set her on her way, towards the closest Island.

Once reaching the island, Sakura met up with a pirate crew and asked if she could get a ride to the next island. The pirate captain said no, unless she had enough payment. Unfortunately, Sakura's mother never gave Sakura any Beli and as such, Sakura was forced to work the entire trip. Once reaching the island after that, only then did Sakura realise that her and her mother could have hidden the body and lived a happy life, but now Sakura had had a taste of what it was like to live on the sea, and she wanted more. Sakura continued to join Pirate Crew after Pirate Crew to get where she needed to go and a long the way, trained her skills in her Music and her Assassination.

Personality: Sakura is slightly mean spirited. She takes delight in seeing those that she despises suffer and even takes mild pleasure in it. She has a rather rebellious nature and tends to act childish towards forces that are used to being listened to. To her friends, she can behave rather nicely yet still seem rather immature. With her food, Sakura is rather picky and only eats food that she has seen been cooked. Sakura is alos passionate about her music. If she gets a single note wrong, she goes into a bad mood and if -anybody- dares slander her music, they're better off dead.
