Kiyomi Uzumaki

Kiyomi Uzumaki (うずまき清見, Uzumaki Kiyomi), also known as Kiyomi of the Whirlpools (渦潮の清見, Uzushio no Kiyomi) is a kunoichi of Uzushiogakure, later Konohagakure and the mother of Naomi Uzumaki.

Background
Kiyomi grew up surrounded by her immediate family and distant relatives in her clan. She became a kunoichi in her early years due to the constant wars, and she was later orphaned as she lost her parents in a the war.

Kiyomi learned Water Release techniques, which suited her the most as she grew up on a land surrounded by water, and by practising and improving the techniques, she later learned how to create a whirlpool, which earned her the nickname "Kiyomi of the Whirlpools".

She had a daughter as a young adult, and she aided her daughter in escaping Uzushiogakure during its destruction. Kiyomi has survived it, but she was injured greatly, which caused her to have a permanent scar on her back. She has started travelling around to find Naomi, but when she reached Konoha, Naomi was out on a mission so they have not crossed paths.

Kiyomi only heard of her daughter when she died during the Kyuubi's attack, and she fell into depression, and it took her years to overcome the grief and visit her granddaughter, who she only learned of a few months after Naomi's death.

Kiyomi travelled to Konoha, where she finally met her granddaughter, who has hers and Naomi's eyes. She visited Momoko as often as she could, and in turn Momoko frequently visited her.

Personality
Kiyomi is a kind woman who has a soft spot for her relatives, be it her distant relatives or her immediate relatives. She was shown to be able to stay in depression for a long period of time, however she was also shown to be able to overcome it with time. Kiyomi deeply loves her family and she wants to keep them close, as shown when she helped Naomi survive Uzushiogakure's destruction and when she went mission, Kiyomi immediately set out to find her.

Appearance
Kiyomi has fair skin and purple eyes. Her signature trait is her long dark pink hair, which is uncommon among the Uzumaki clan. With her old age, even with the Uzumaki clan's long lifespan, she gained wrinkles on her face, but she still holds a bit of her youthful appearance. Her hair is parted to the left, similar to that of her daughter's, and the strands are pulled back to form small buns on both sides of her head. There are small bangs framing her face.

She is mostly seen wearing a light purple mid-thigh length kimono with short sleeves. She wears a light blue obi and a dark skirt with black shinobi sandals.

When she's on duty, she wears the same clothing but she replaces the skirt with shorts.

Abilities
Kiyomi is shown to be able to create whirlpools, which earned her the nickname "Kiyomi of the Whirlpools". Other than this, she was shown tobe able to use the Chakra Chains, and many sealing techniques as it is a speciality of her clan.

Trivia

 * "Kiyomi" literally means "pure beauty" (清見).
 * The surname "Uzumaki" is a pun on "spiral" (渦巻), because it refers to a three-dimensional spiral, like a whirlpool or vortex. "Uzumaki" can also mean "whirlpool," in reference to the Naruto whirlpools (鳴門の渦潮), named after the city of Naruto.
