Kasuka Hakkō

is a Jōnin-level shinobi of Iwagakure in the Land of Earth and member of the Hakkō Clan. She is the only member of the Hakkō clan capable of performing the Kasai to Rakurai no Gishiki in the current generation.

Background
Kasuka is a former Jōnin of Iwagakure, having retired after giving birth to her first born child Han, deciding to raise her children while her husband dealt with clan politics. After Sukai Tsuki, and, Taiyō were born, Kasuka trained Tsuki in the art of Medical Ninjutsu which Kasuka had mastered during her own shinobi career. Kasuka was also responsible for branding all of her children, as well as her nephew Kagayaku with the Kasai to Rakurai no Gishiki as was clan custom. All three of her daughters went on to show the ability to use the Plasma Release Kekkei Tōta, the most in the clan's history.

Despite her retirement, Kasuka volunteered to assist the Iwa Medical Corps during the Third Shinobi World War, not content to sit around and watch as her family fought and died for their homeland. She gained fame during the war for single handedly driving off a force from Konohagakure with a seeminly impenetrable barrier.

Appearance
Kasuka had short spiky red hair that was mostly hidden under a white bandana, though her bangs peeked out over her forehead. She had light green eyes. Both were traits that were passed down to her youngest daughter Sukai. Kasuka could commonly be found wearing a white long-sleeved shirt alongside a long blue skirt and sandals. During the war she could be found wearing a white variation of the Iwa-uniform, without the flak jacket.
