Name: Nomi no Ōkata
Faction: Mori
Ethnicity: Japanese
Age: 27
Gender: Female
Height: 5'4”
Weight: 122 lbs
Eye Color: Light blue
Hair Color: Black
Appearance:
Okata has a very voluptuous figure, and she is well-aware of this, often purposefully wearing her colourful kimonos low and loose to show off her assets. With large breasts, curvy hips, a long neck, and a slender waist, it is difficult not to notice this woman. To fit with the women of the time, Okata's long black hair is kept up and held by ornate hair pieces. Perhaps besides her figure, the most notable part of her appearance is her light blue eyes, which is a recessive gene within her family line.
Personality:
Okata is highly intelligent, good at both strategy and thinking on the spot. She is a practical and intuitive woman, easily able to read most people and situations. The woman had to be witty in order to survive, and is very skilled with deception and investigating, being a spy of sorts for Lord Mori. It is not that she is a pathological liar, but lies in order to survive and do what needs to be done, and she has no qualms with both that and how she gathers her information, which is often through sex.
She is a very sensuous woman, charming and lustful, although that nature came from her upbringing and career, current and past. Okata's beauty and seemingly warm and kind, as well as mysterious, demeanor draw many in, and that is her hook. Okata is not a cruel or evil person by any means, but the woman internally is often cold and calculating, and can be incredibly deceptive, and does what needs to be done for herself and her lord. Okata will change how she comes across depending on who she is around and what suits their fancy.
This is not to say that she cannot be compassionate, as she often sympathizes with poor girls or women and those who live a life like she had, sometimes acting maternal, but she does not let her sympathies cloud her judgment. That being said, Okata does have a nurturing nature, which she often suppresses, unless her lord requires it or some rare act or person/thing stirs her soul.
Logic is to come before emotion. This was something she taught herself, and that Lord Mori has engrained in her even more heavily. And, like him, she has a deep love for the sun, and has a distaste for the dark (which is explained in the history, first paragraph.)
Okata really only looks out for herself, and now Lord Mori, and he is the only person she respects, and, deep down, loves. She is entirely devoted to her lord, and would rather die than give him away or hurt him in any way.
History:
Okata was born in the Nomi clan. She does not have much of a recollection of her family, as most of her family was killed by bandits attacking her home when she was only five. Her older sister, Rika, took Okita and ran in the night, and they were the only two of their family to survive. It was a long and cold night, and one of Okita's first memories. She recalls that the darkness was so pure and endless that it pressed against her until she felt as though she could not breathe. Because the sisters could not see, they fell frequently and their numb bodies were covered in cuts and bruises. When the sun came up, relief overwhelmed her. Finally the darkness dissipated and she could see, and they could rest without fear.
But their hardships did not stop there. Even with the light, they continued along the dark path of poverty and starvation. They had lost everything to the bandits, their loved ones and money, and the girls lived in poverty, forced to steal food and money in order to survive. Okata over a couple of years learned to fool people so that her older sister could steal from them, or earn their sympathy and either get food or coin, or, in rare instances, lodging for the night. But those times were rare, and during a particular harsh winter, Rika and Okata were sure they would die.
But they did not.
A man came across the twelve and seven year old laying in an alley, huddled together, and took them in. But not for free. Mr. Suzuki was an unsavory fellow with many dirty businesses, and forced the girls into labor. They did not decline for they had nowhere else to go, but the days were long and hard, and Okata longed for the daylight, for the sun. But she was kept inside and forced to do grueling work.
Unfortunately it did not stop there. Rika was twelve and quite beautiful, and Suzuki's just as corrupt sister, Saya, recognized this. Running a whorehouse with her brother, the woman forced Rika to become a child prostitute. This broke Rika, both physically and psychologically, and every night she cried, and Okata hates the dark more and more, and so desperately wanted to reach the light and for the sorrow to end. The work and seeing her sister's suffering tore Okata up inside, and as the years went by, she grew cold, caging away her emotions in order to hold herself together.
When Okata was eleven, she was forced into prostitution as well. Okata only became internally icier, numbing herself emotionally, doing what she had to in order to survive. Unlike Rika, she had been more prepared for this from seeing her sister go through it, and having expected it for so long. And, again, unlike her older sister, Okata adapted in order to survive. She learned that if she acted more charming and talked to the men, and listened to them “sympathetically”, that she would earn more money, and Okata began to hide this extra surplus away from Mr. Suzuki and Saya. She hoped to one day save enough money to run away and finally reach that light.
Rika had fallen into drugs and alcohol, drowning in depression, and she could no longer live as they did, feeling shame. When Okata turned thirteen, Rika committed suicide, blood soaking their shared bed from where she slit her wrists. While she was sad over her sister's death, Okata was not surprised, and, in a way, was angry at Rika for her self-hatred. Okata detested their oppressors and those that kept them from the light and forced them in the darkness, but not herself. In fact, she saw nothing wrong with what they did, as they did it simply to survive. And as Okata grew older and became more experienced and skillful, her feelings only intensified. The only shameful ones were Mr. Suzuki and Saya, and Rika for being so weak and short-sighted.
Okata was the most favorable whore by the time she was seventeen, and had saved enough money over the years that she had enough to get away from her oppressors and live on her own. But they would not let her go so easily, and Okata knew that. As they slept, the young woman slit their throats, took their money, and ran off, escaping the small town.
Over the years, Okata traveled from area to area, selling herself to eager men, and stealing from them from time to time. Eventually, Okata reached the Aki province when she was twenty-one and, having gathered enough money, founded a whorehouse, going by the name Masaki Amaya. Gathering other women, Okata ran the whorehouse, and it grew quite prosperous. She took in some girls and women who had been in similar situations as her, and treated them well, helping them adapt and educating them with what she knew (as long as they did their job and did not try to back-stab her.) Men of power would come to her business, as these women were considered the best whores in the province, and Okata found another source to make money: selling information.
With her skills, “sympathetic ear”, and nurturing nature, many men took a fancy to Okata. She was exceptionally beautiful and warm, and by this point she had crafted herself into a respectable woman, ironically. Okata came across as the most ideal and desirable woman, despite her career, and soon enough she was able to become incredibly selective. The woman only would see men of high positions, and became a courtesan. She grew close to many of these men, and was able to gather all sorts of information and sell it.
When Okata was twenty-four, she had been staying with a general of Mori. He had been committing treason, and Okata, having overheard much of his plans or had been told directly by him, knew she had very juicy and profitable information. She even learned where his plans were kept. Slipping out of bed as he rested, Okata took his plans, but the man woke up. He began to question her, getting close to the woman, and before he grew overly suspicious and forceful, Okata killed him. But what happened next was something she had not expected.
After washing away the blood from herself and getting ready to leave, Lord Mori Motonari entered the house. Shocked by his arrival, Okata knew not what to do, one of the first times in her life, and she was frozen in place. Seeing the body of his general, Lord Mori began to question Okata, and when she lied, she called her out, and Okata admitted to the truth. She told him what she knew, that she had the man's plans and planned on selling it, and that she killed the general before he realized her betrayal and what she was doing.
Lord Mori was silent for some time, and made a couple of inquiries, watching carefully and coldly as she answered. He was the only person Okata could not read or decipher, and so she answered honestly, knowing that she could not get out of this situation unless he allowed her to. He asked for her (real) name, what she did, inquired about her business, and asked if she could read (which she could not.) At seeing Lord Mori's brows raise, Okata explained that she never had the opportunity to learn, and told him of her methods of gathering information, at one point admitting without shame, “It's amazing what all a man will tell you when you have his dick in your mouth, and have him by the balls.”
After a minute of silence, Lord Mori made her an offer she did not expect in the least: to work for him. Okata was suspicious, but as he went on to explain, her reservations disappeared. Lord Mori knew of the man's treason and had come there to kill him, but she had taken care of the pest for him, and even had his plans. He saw potential in her, and wanted her to work as a spy, and at offering to educate her, truly educate her and give her a life she could only dream of or pretend to have temporarily when with these wealthy, powerful men, Okata could not refuse.
Lord Mori was the child of the Sun, and became her light. Her salvation.
Over the last few years, Lord Mori has taught Okata how to read and further improved her skills. She has grown more intelligent and deceptive, and has started to became a rather decent strategist. Okata began to do what she did before, but brought information to Lord Mori directly, by sleeping with the enemy. She is an incredibly effective and valuable spy, and very few people even know of her, as Okata always goes by different names and always has a new identity, and can keep her lies straight, as Lord Mori and her past has taught her.
The cold, calculating man earned Okata's respect, and she found she was wholeheartedly devoted to her lord, but it was not until 1559 that she realized there was a different side to him. One evening, Okata entered his room and found Lord Mori reading a letter. It was from his wife, telling her husband of the birth of their fourth child, Takakage, that he had a healthy son, and that she was well. There was a warmth within Lord Mori's eyes she had never witnessed before, and for the first time, Okata saw that there was more to her Lord than the cold, calculating man everyone knew him to be.
This stirred something within Okata and, as she drew closer, she realized his love for his family, that he missed them, and his goal and methods of achieving it made all the more sense. Everything clicked into place, and Motonari saw that she knew, and that her devotion only grew to a whole new level. There was an understanding in the two of them, and Okata became his first concubine. An attraction sparked as a more powerful bond of trust formed, and she became his lover and one of his only and most trusted confidants.
Okata is fully aware of his feelings towards his family, that she is second to them and him, and that she is a means to an end, a tool (even if she is one of the few the cold man actually respects), and yet it does not bother her. The woman knows she is more important than his mere lowly pawns, a Knight or Queen to his King, and nothing could make her possibly happier. She is loyal to her lord and secretly has fallen in love with him. Her position as his concubine and her real work is hidden, and Okata continues to gather information for her Lord and light.
