Personality Description:
Talim, as a whole is quite obvious when you get to know her. Living her life as an open book for all the world to see, much like the books she reads. Although unlike her books, she often feared growing up in the life style of many of heroines and legendary fighters. All born an only child losing their parents before they can even recollect their faces, vowing that one day they shall find the truth in their deaths only to find that they were merchants ship wrecked by a deathly storm conjured by some sorceress, or slain by a mighty warrior thought to be resurrecting a hell spawn itself to devour the world as you know it or etc. Being an avid book worm it comes to no surprised that she yearns for adventure and drama casting herself into the thick of a fray, just so that she can have a tale to right home about. Sadly though that is not how the life of an ordinary child can start, no tragic back story or family members dead and not even a lonely child.  None of which is bad, Talim loves her family, exception possibly being her mother only because she is a bit stubborn in her ways(a trait semi passed down through the family). Often classified as a dreamer wishing for more in life when being returned with little to know options to fulfill that everlasting desire.

Despite these hopes in life one would think she would be quite stubborn and demanding as she grew up, however it was quite the opposite for her. She demanded very little, a trait she didn't acquire from any of her family members except possibly her father. Talim has is quite lax in her manners not in a hurry of over exerting herself to reach her goals, and quite obedient when commanded to do an task. Respecting authority, royalty, and religious figures before herself, imagine a loyal dog, you say bark. She barks. You say roll over. She rolls over. You say assassinate the kage of another village. She says, sorry sir for I am to week. Innocent to a fault, Talim is more likely to defeat her foe and then dress their wounds if in trouble despite the fact that they can still have ill intentions for her. Her mother often thought it was a shame she didn't look into medical jutsu techniques for her innocence and caring heart could have brought back even the most lost souls from the brink of death.

Although she has read many books and is considered an intellectual, Talim is far from being the smartest person in the room. Honest and trustworthy to a fault, she often fails  in the tactical department leaving her enemies in a dazed or downed state unwilling to kill despite supporting evidence that will assure that they will kill again. This and her ability to understand sarcasm often makes her quite befuddled when told things.

Likes:
Tea: Jade, Peach, Cherry, Ginseng, and Lavender. However, Talim doesn't find it most satisfying just to drink as well as make. Having grown up to a relatively small family she became an apprentice at a friends tea shop. Amazed by the manner which one could use the leaves of various teas, she began experimenting with random vegetation. Anyway, the part she enjoys is steeping the leaves and bags into the water which gives it the flavor from the plant.

Shrimp: A delicacy to where she grew up, Talim considered herself lucky to be treated to a bowl of shrimp with a hot sauce which normally would be accompanied by it. An excellent main dish or side during a meal it was rare for her family to never finish off this food. Although if she was feeling ill it wouldn't come to any surprise that parents and eventually younger brother couldn't finish it.

Reading: Faced with the issue of boredom or chores,Talim decided it would be better to go about outside and read a book int a tree. Enjoying many of the stories that she had read. This became such a habit for her, as she normally would go out toward the tavern to listen in on the stories of traveling ninjas. This was probably one of her inspirations to eventually go out leaving her family for the city Otogakure by herself.

Swimming: Again swimming was more of a treat then anything back as a child, her parent spoiling them with whatever her brother and she wanted. Swimming was her activity of choice as she felt exhilarated by the water gliding over her smooth skin and always had a laugh when she stayed in long periods of time appearing like a prune.

Birds: This love for birds was developed by her long days and nights of laying about reading various novels. As she hid out in the trees, these little creature would often sing out their ditties and tunes which she enjoyed so much. She use to run outside with seeds in hand whistling ever so gently, her palms outstretched up as if she was a tree. At first one or two would land on her but eventually she had gained their trust so well that they would perch on her shoulder even while moving.

Brother: Since  she was young she adored her baby brother, someone who she felt necessary to protect developing this ninja like trait of guarding others. This would help explain her wish to eventually become Daiymo's bodyguard, but she knew that she would have to work her way up through the ranks before that. Despite the treachery of her little brother she always would offer a loving smile to him.

Dislikes:
Meat: Talim became a vegetarian after her years of exploration of their village which they grew up in. One day, she had unfortunately upon these adventures she would learn why some people were vegetarians. Having watched the blood draining process, feather plucking, and fur removing seemed inhuman. So now Talim refuses to eat any form of meat, although fish oddly was fair game in her mind.

Games: Although she grew up with a little brother who would occasionally ask her to do various things, Talim never enjoyed playing the various games that he would ask for her to join him in. Always wearing a fake smile when she did have to play along with them. Board games are the worse as she tends to have the worst luck which even translates into fights haver the time.

Dogs: Despite their pathetic faces and playful tendencies, Talim had forever been scarred by the residual memory of being bitten her first time. Before her younger brother was born and she was four,she remembered walking through the woods with her pa. Having been a few meters in front of him he was stretching out when she screamed in pain from a vicious dog gnawing on her arm. Quickly rid of this dog her father rushed her back but this was enough to keep a fear of canines in her mind for the years to come.

Mother: She disliked tradition, but most importantly the person who demanded we stuck to it. Talim over exaggerates this fact, but her mother always seemed to urge her toward the more feminine aspects of life. Instead of listening to this ninja nonsense. A mother fearing the day her daughter leaves the nest and the possible idea of losing a child before she left this existence was her main arguments.

Running: Boring. This is labeled as quite honestly the most boring sport one could ever take up, and she refused to do this unless it is for training. The only useful running in her eyes is for survival or for reaching magically gorgeous destination.

Catch Phrases: ”Yes sensei!”, “Sorry sensei.”, "Hello baby brother, ----", "I wont' kill you."
Nindo: To serve her kage in any manner he wished. Although she also wishes to preserve life in the world.
