Takeko Nakano (中野 竹子, Nakano Takeko) is a ninja adopted into the Nakano Clan and a member of team Trinity Blitz alongside her two brothers. She is the daughter of two ninjas from the west. She is the main character of Naruto: The Northern War.

Personality
Takeko She has always been a rather cocky individual, supremely confident in her skills and abilities, few were the fights she went into where she was not confident of victory before it all even got started, and her record for the most part has proven her right, still that particular attitude often came to border on arrogance and over confidence. With age and experience she has learned to not under estimate her opponents and to better contain her arrogance, taking things less for granted and better judging the possible outcomes. But her faith in her own abilities and superior skills have not diminished, and is as confident as ever, if anything, she might even be more confident now than she used to be.Both intelligent and determined Takeko will not shy away from any challenge with which she has any interest in.

She is a very curious individual, she has a desire to see, experience and learn everything, even if her attention span can sometimes be short. Luckily for her, her Byakugan is well developed and serves her well in this regard. In her youth this curiosity could often lead her into trouble, not knowing when to hold off and ill able to resist needing to “know”, though of course this too with age and experience has toned down quite a bit, though the desire to do it all is still very much there.

In combat Takeko can be a very patient combatant, taking in every detail of her opponents strategy and abilities, she has quite the aptitude for determining an opponent’s capabilities and preferred method, and is quite gifted at adapting her own strategies and methods to better combat a particular opponent. Both supremely confident and creative, she often seeks to outmaneuver and overwhelm her opponents through the use of deception and subterfuge, using the battle field’s conditions to her favor, even using her opponent’s own techniques to her benefit.

Above all however Takeko is a Taijutsu practitioner and a damned good one at that, this will always be her preferred combat method. Takeko is extremely fast and precise possessing incredible speed, exceptional balance, agility and grace. For Takeko, Taijutsu is like a dance, it has its own beauty and esthetic, one she loves to practice. She knows full well that within close range, her speed, skill and combat style make her extremely dangerous and deadly, and takes a particular pleasure in this fact, she will try to take advantage of this any chance she gets.

Byakugan
Takeko possesses the Byakugan, a dōjutsu which grants her x-ray vision, nearly 360-degree vision, and the ability to see chakra networks. The Byakugan has a small blind spot at the upper thoracic vertebrae, a weakness of which Imi is actually aware of and takes extra precaution in concealing it from opponents. While the Byakugan naturally has only a 50 meter field of vision with intense traning, Takeko is able to increase its range several times, to at least 800 meters. She is also noted to have a particularly strong Byakugan.

Rinnegan
Dispite having the Rinnegan Takeko has not shown any other nature transformations then her orginal three. She has also not shown the ability to use any of the six paths techniques. The only abilities shown was the Banshō Ten'in and the Shinra Tensei

Taijutsu
Dispite not having anyone to teach her she was able to learn the Gentle Fist fighting style. She was stated this is because she could see how to do it with her eyes. With intense training she gaind the use of the Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms and the Eight Trigrams Palms Revolving Heaven. After awakening her Rinnegan and the Banshō Ten'in and Shinra Tensei she uses them when attacking her opponenet's. She mostly uses the Banshō Ten'in when using the Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms and the Shinra Tensei with the Eight Trigrams Palms Revolving Heaven.
