Appearance
Nanami is a well-toned girl, physically fit and able to perform grueling tasks that may be required of her. Her hair is long, down to her back, but she usually has it tied back in a ponytail. Her hair is the same shade of brown as her hair, and both her hair and eyes are a huge contrast from the white hair of her father.
She is commonly seen in Western-style clothing, taking a liking to what pirates in other parts of the world liked to wear. Instead of the usual kimono, she is seen in black pirate pants and a white frilly shirt. Over that, she wears a buccaneer's coat, with a baldric for her saber, and a holster for her pistol (that she currently doesn't have). Underneath the coat, she has bracers over her shirt's sleeves. She definitely stands out when surrounded by people wearing traditional clothing.

Personality
Nanami is cocky, much like her father. She isn't afraid to back down from a challenge, and tends to stir up trouble where it doesn't belong. She loves being able to prove that she can do all the same things as a man, or sometimes even better than them. She also won't hesitate to shoot or stab you if you annoy her.
However, she isn't a bad person. While being a pirate is her nature, she still possesses a kind heart and tries to help out the less fortunate when she can. She doesn't believe in picking on or preying on the weak, and instead, will stand up for them if she ever sees it happening.
In a battle, if she holds an advantage, she loves to be cocky and toy around with her opponent. But if she gets bored, she'll just knock them out and be done with it.
History
Born Mizumi of the Okiayu clan of Shikoku. They were a clan wiped out by the Chosokabe when Mizumi was still a baby. Finding her in the wreckage of her home, Chosokabe Motochika took her in for himself, adopting her and raising her as if she were his own daughter. It was a move not expected of the great Ogre of the West Sea, but he could not bring himself to leave her to die. He gave her his clan name, and named her Nanami, a symbol of the seven seas that they sailed.
Growing up, she showed much proficiency in wielding a gun like the other pirates. Motochika had taught her to fire well, she learned to never miss a target, and was especially proficient in a quick draw. She was also taught to fight with a sword, taking much interest in Western weaponry, preferring the scimitar and the rapier to the Japanese katana. She steeled herself to protecting her father above all else, and the other men learned not to look down on her for being a woman as she more than proved her right to be among their ranks.
One day, Motochika took her aside to speak to her, revealing the truth about her family at the risk of earning her scorn. Nanami did not bat an eye, instead, she smiled. She saw Motochika as her father, the Chosokabe as her family, and this life of sailing the seas was where she belonged. She swore to protect her father, and she would uphold that even after finding out what happened to the Okiayu.
One day, she received Motochika's blessing to go forth to see the rest of Japan for herself, noting that while she was a wise woman, she needed to see the rest of the world in order for her to further grow and hone herself. She followed his guidance, and ended up departing on her own journey, but vowed to visit the Seto Sea as often as she could.
