Personality: Always calm and collected, Miki is mostly never seen rage, getting mad, or even raising a wrong eyebrow to the people she respects. Her respect for her master, or whoever will hire her for a work(that will still be called by her master), will be on top of everything.
It is really really rare for her to snap to a master, even if he/she would sexually harrass her. Still, as any other human, she has her limits too.

When having a conversation, she is of little words, but concise on what she means.

Original Owner: Sasaki Kojiro
Clan: Kojiro-Kagezora clan
History: Sasaki Kojiro is supposedly one of the most known samurai, thanks to his "stained fight" at the end of his road called life. Sasaki went by the name of Ganryū, and that was also the name of his kenjuutsu school he had founded. Sasaki served for various house.
For a brief period of time, Sasaki served under the Mori clan, in the Aki province. There Sasaki studied both swordmanship. Here, Sasaki invented his Tsubame gaeshi, then, after little time, Sasaki moved in the Kokura Domain, to teach swordmanship.
There, story says that a fight happened between his students and Musashi Miyamoto's students. They argued whom master was the strongest. Both Sasaki and Musashi couldn't stay quiet, and decided to finish this in a duel.
There are various opinion on how and why did Sasaki lose. Many say that the fight was not supposed to be a fight to death, and that, after Sasaki's lost, a student of Musashi attacked Sasaki from behind, thus killing him, then retreating.
Other say that Musashi arrived late to the fight to irritate Sasaki, and taunted him more times to disturb his inner calm. Irritated, Sasaki drew his sword, throwing away his scabbard, while Musashi had hidden, as a scabbard, a wooden sword, that made an easy victory for him.
Sacred Item: Monohoshi Zao (The Drying Pole), a long sword of 92 cm.
Activate Ability 1: Oroshi Sanren:From the famous sheated position, called BattouJutsu, Miki unfolds three quick strikes. The drawing speed is strong enough to create a sonic gale, with enough power to cut lightly
Activate Ability 2: Hiken: Tsubame Gaeshi(uncomplete): Sasaki Kojiro's most known move, that was admired by everyone said to be able to cut down a flying swallow. This isn't the complete version, as it has only the upwards and downwards strike, missing the angle strike. Also, these two hit have 3 seconds of difference between the upwards and downwards strike. The reach of this move is about the same as the whole sword (92 cm)
Activate Ability 3: Hiken: Tsubame Gaeshi: The true Swallow Counter used by Sasaki Kojiro consisting in a 3 slashed that happen with a second of interval between a slash and another. The first is a violent downwards strike, the Swallow attacking its prey, the second is an upwards strike of the same strength, the Swallow rising in the sky, and the third one is an angle slash, the Cage of the Swallow. If one is in range of this move, it is pretty difficult to get out of it without losing an art of the sort. The reach of this move is different from the incomplete one, and it can reach about a meter.
Passive 1: Ganryu Battou Style: While the sword is sheated, the drawing speed will be improved. (+1Speed on the first attack, or any attack that starts in battou motion, included active.)
Passive 2: Sixth sense: While Miki has her sword with her, and only in that case, surprise attack are mostly impossible, aside Guns.
OverburstColor: Lime Green
Overburst Power: Hiken:Tsubame Gaeshi: True: Same as the 3rd ability, but the three slashes happen at the same time. There isn't even a millisecond of difference between the three strike, letting one think that the sword itself moves, in that instant, faster than time itself.
Support: Kagezora Yasuo (father and main man of the Kagezora-Kojiro clan, he is the one that "dispatches" the moneys for Miki's wellfare)
Miai Oshizora (second mother, there is no info on the biological mother, probably killed because she did something counter-productive for the clan, like showing Miki the Kabuki dance that she's so fond of, but no record can be found nowhere)
Marie Du Lac (non Japanese-woman and biologial mother of Miki. Some say that her non japanese origin are also a reason for her "sudden disappearance")
History: The Kojiro's clan died with Sasaki Kojiro. Still, Sasaki had a son, a "bastard" son. And he did teach him the Ganryu school. Since then, the Kagezora clan became the bringer of the Ganryu school, and the holder of Sasaki's sword. This sword was passed from father to son, but there never was anyone that much adept to use the full ability of the sacred item. For that reason, they were sort of ignored by the Shogunate, as even they couldn't find someone that would be able to use the sacred item of Sasaki Kojio.
That is, until 16 years ago, with Miki's birth.
As soon as she became 5, it was quite clear that a prodigy was born in the Kagezora clan. Not pure, physical strenght, but an ability to draw and use the sacred item potential to the fullest. Still, because of Miki's not so expressive face, and her usual smug, she never had a master for more than a week, as they didn't find themself safe with her.
Immediately after, the Kagezora-Kojiro clan was contacted, knowing that a prodigy had born, and asked to see her "potential". It was an unique show that took the Shogunate by surprise. After all, they had given up on the second Sasaki Kojiro, but Miki showed all the premise for it.
Every time there was an odd job of the sort that involved bodyguarding and such, they would call Miki, knowing that, after all, her clan's main ambition was to find a worthy master for Sasaki Kojiro the second, that would bring back the Kojiro clan status.
Beside of that, Miki's had a good amount of experience at an early age, when she was just 14 years old. These missions specialized in guarding her target, prioritizing it over her own safety. Her curriculm shows over 20 mission of escort, both when she was 13 to 15 years old, most of them went smooth. A couple of time she had to resort to her strenght, and out of 20 missions, only in 5 of them the target was hit, and only in 1 mission her target died, as her opponent sniped him from afar leaving her no mean to help him.
At the age of 16, the Kagezora-Kojiro clan gave Miki full support for expenses in the Edo Bugei, willing for her to exell over all. Still, as the clan rules go, aside money support, the clan will not help her in any fight, as that's the role of a guard. Or at least, their belief.
