Oboro Iga

Oboro is a very peaceful and gentle girl, her reluctance to kill her enemies shows this. She is also selfless and trusting. Some members of her family take advantage of these traits and trick her on occasions, none the less, she still remains loyal and obedient to them. Since she is the Princess, her family refers to her with respectful terms such as "Oboro-sama", but many of them are wary of her and view her as the odd one of the clan. She is not exceptional in any ninja combat, but does have an eye technique which can strip any ninja of their powers. This eye technique can develop if she has enough hatred in her, and results in mutilating the enemy instead. Despite her obvious love and devotion for Gennosuke, Oboro has gained the interest of other ninjas too. Tenzen lusts after Oboro and desires to take her for his wife in order to become the true lord of Tsubagakure. Koshirou is completely devoted to Oboro and holds romantic feelings for her, however as Tenzen's apprentice he's obligated to follow his sensei's orders regardless of how he personally feels. Gennosuke, however remains Oboro's only love interest. Oboro is described in the original novel as having "A face that shone as beautifully as the sun" and "Deep, almost-hypnotic, crystal eyes of intensity". Despite being passive, Oboro can be very determined when it comes to the safety of other people, and cares deeply for her clan. She often goes to visit the graves of her relatives as they die to pray for them to proceed into the after life, but since the graves are so distant from each other this is a tiring progress, however Oboro insists she must as it's "Showing them the respect they deserve", and has repeated this process for years since the death of her nurse who was a mother figure to her until she died.
