Vanimedle Family/Tonkotsu

Tonkotsu started out as a young peasant girl, who lived with a poor family in a destitute war torn region. Her first interaction with a noble was when a young noble passed through, who upon seeing Tonkotsu toiling in the arid, poor quality farmlands approached her and her family offering to buy her under the pretence that she would be a servant in his manor, her family being so destitute agreed to this, hoping for a better life for themselves and their daughter. On the trip back to the young nobles estate he pulled over, and tried to force himself upon Tonkotsu. She was thankfully saved by Joichiro, who saw what was going on and forced the noble of her, then passing her his sword, he told her that if she had anything worth defending that she should take up the sword. It was then that she took the sword and killed the noble.

In the years Tonkotsu spent following Joichiro Nishi they soon became romantically involved, when Joichiro lost his Niselurian rebellion and tortured before her very eyes she became mentally unstable, but she also vowed revenge and took up the Vanimedle name, claiming to be a Vanimedle from that point on.

She first arrived in Sirion by pure chance, but soon left leaving for Bara'Khur. The lands where Joichiro had been a Viscount and prophet, where he picked up his heroic values. She still remains in Bara'Khur now, and has even surpassed Joichiro's achievement by becoming the monarch of Bara'Khur.
