Tsubaki, Momo

[attr="class","loner_text"]

Tsubaki is a confident and capable woman; efficient at  preforming her duties whilst ensuring that her work is of an above average quality. She is considered ambitious by both herself and her peers, the immense desire to acquire a superior station in life often driving the woman forward. Her spirit burns brightly in regards to achieving her dream of being viewed positively by the masses - of being admired and envied in equal amounts. Yet she desires such things for admittedly deplorable reasons. It's all for the sake of self-satisfaction and to secure a spot within history and be remembered for her successes. Tsubaki legitimately dislikes the vast majority of the world's population, viewing them as naught more than sheep whom are easily herded into a certain way of thinking. [break][break]


She possesses a natural talent for concealing her true nature, and will often manipulate and sabotage so that a scenario can end with her on top. Tsubaki's dream of taking on work as a politician has motivated her to continue down such a path, her gaze fixed on eventually acquiring an official position with the country's respective government. The intensity of her desires have resulted in her forgoing bonds or simply wielding pliable individuals as tools for her personal use. She constantly dehumanizes individuals as a result, and actually has to force herself to properly view someone as they actually are - a person - an individual. Very few acquaintances whom are lacking in importance are remembered as a result.

Tsubaki isn't above acts of cruelty or pettiness. And while her temper can't be considered lackluster, some of her actions are often deemed passive aggressive in nature. She possesses an astonishing amount of self-control, and can forcibly bubble her emotions at a moment's notice if she must. The woman personally favors prodding at one's personal weakness whilst boasting a pleasant tone, and derives enjoyment in demeaning another. She also holds no issues with administering physical abuse, genuinely thinking of it as a much softer approach when it comes to disciplining another. [break][break]
When the more negative aspects of her personality are peeled away, you'll find a hard-working and reliable woman underneath. Communicative and - unsurprisingly - sociable, Tsubaki has taught herself how to properly navigate dialogue-heavy situations by appealing to another and saying whatever they desire to hear. She also believes, quite firmly, that one should be able to properly defend themselves. As a result, she shows little pity for those whom are easily felled due to their own physical or mental frailty. She admires strength, above all else, and considers it an attractive trait in those whom are willing to make use of it.

Her father desired sons yet he had been blessed with several daughters instead. She was the second oldest among her sisters, and was introduced to a high-class lifestyle with parents whom were emotionally distant. From a young age Momo and her sisters were forcibly veered down a path that would lead them to success, her family intolerant of failure. She was expected to maintain herself as a young lady of class - to exercise a certain level of independence despite her apparent youth. Her parents desired a prodigy despite Momo possessing no astonishing talents that were unusual for one her age. But the young girl craved her mother and father's approval, listening to their instructions intently as she forced herself to partake in hobbies she didn't care for and dress in clothing that she found uncomfortable and ugly.

Momo would continue being the obedient daughter until she developed an attraction for a attractive young lad. She had just entered the middle stages of adolescence, and her mother had warned her away from individuals belonging to the opposite sex - yet she allowed for her hormones and thoughts of romance to sweep her away. Several days prior to her sixteenth birthday it was discovered that she had been impregnated. Her parents were, expectantly, furious. They threatened both herself, her child and the boy whom she had the tryst with. Momo grew rebellious in the face of their combined anger, unwilling to allow them to have complete reign over something that heavily involved herself.  The youth - the one whom impregnated her - handled the situation just as poorly. It was as though his charming and kindly nature had been little more than a farce; for he would slip away so to cowardly maintain his freedom. Momo, as she nursed her now tender heart, made the decision to keep his identity a secret. [break][break]
Life immediately afterward was thoroughly unpleasant. She refused to end the pregnancy, and her parents grew harsh. Callous words were often shot in her direction and her sisters would cast her looks of obvious disapproval and pity. Momo grew despondent for a brief while, terrible emotions swirling within as she felt herself become more of an outcast with each day that passed. Eventually, she would tug herself free of such emotional weight, deciding to ignore those whom would judge her in favor of focusing purely on herself. She became increasingly aggressive towards her family in a verbal sense, wielding her quick wit and spinning tales to sow the seeds of distrust and unrest within the confines of her home. By the time her child had been successfully birthed, the tension among those whom she shared blood with was undeniably thick.

She held her child in her small arms and would observe the turmoil  that she had caused with a strange sense of satisfaction. At this period of time she was mostly alone, yet she did not show many signs of minding it. Momo's friends, whom she cared little for, had lost interest in her due to the young woman's newfound fixation on caring for her child. The woman would eventually start to plan her future - the one her mother claimed that she had so carelessly discarded the moment her little one was conceived. She wanted nothing more than to prove her family wrong, and as the years passed, she would. Momo balanced motherhood with education and work. The young mother refused to accept her family's money during this period of time, thinking of it as a crutch that she couldn't afford to rely upon as she left the comfortable confines of her home. [break][break]
She remained emotionally distant from the vast majority of the people involved in her life during this time, thinking it best that she maintain a certain level of focus. The completion of her schooling would eventually result Tsubaki involving herself in police work. It was chosen at random, for the woman wasn't entirely sure of what she truly wanted. After being forcibly guided along by her mother and father for so long, it proved difficult to figure out what her preferences were. The work she took on there was eye opening. Momo had found it strange that she could develop such a strong distaste for the common man in such a short period of time. It was as though she was expected to handle society's filth gently - and it infuriated her. Her loathing of the vast majority would be fully realized once she forced herself to become educated on matters involving politics[break][break]
She became increasingly cruel and manipulative in many ways as time progressed, yet she was clever enough to disguise such behavior. Momo had begun to replicate her father and mother's mannerisms and certain aspects of their personality without truly knowing it. This would heavily effect the relationship she shared with her child, whom was growing at what felt like an alarming rate. She would make the decision to send them away to a boarding school a short distance away, feeling as though their relationship would grow foul, otherwise. The end of her career as a police officer would come about abruptly. She had  actually begun to forge successful connections and dealings with unsavory individuals prior to a certain mysterious faction approaching her with an offer that proved difficult to refuse.
