Family
Her mother is Kira Suzumori. She never knew her father, but it becomes apparent that he was an unknown member of the Uchiha clan and is deceased. Her family also includes three birds(Heiwa, Shinku, and Kuromeru) and a large sheepdog named Gosha.

Appearance
Gisei is a little small for her age, with long black hair that almost reaches her waist. Her eyes are blue-gray but clouded over due to her blindness.

Bio
Gisei was born the thirteen child of her generation in a supersticious clan that believed the thirteenth born of a generation would bring nothing but misfortune to the clan. Those children are sent away until their thirteenth birthday where they are then turned into scape-goats. However, they also believed that those with the great Ookami as their Anikami guide would bring balance and strength to their clan. While they were debating what to do with the newborn, Gisei's mother took her and ran away despite the difficult birth she'd endured.

While on the way to Konohagakure, she heard what had happened to the Uchiha clan, and feared that her daughter might not be safe there either. So she made a home for them in the forests. Gisei thrived there, and learned to use her other senses to get around.

After Team 7's first real mission, but before the Chuunin exams, they were hired to help Kira and Gisei return to the Hidden Leaf village safely.

Animals
Gisei has a few Animal friends.

Ookami
Ookami is Gisei's Anikami-tebiki (Literally animal spirit guide), of Anikami guide, and is extremely devoted to keeping Gisei safe. Oka-san, as Gisei calls him, takes the form of a large wolf-dog and is normally only visible to animals or Gisei herself. However, he will sometimes appear in the dreams of inviduals Gisei trusts or take a physical form when Gisei is in danger. He only ever speaks to Gisei though.

Heiwa
Heiwa is a young crow that Gisei rescued and nursed back to health. She decided to stick with the child, deeming her a worthy friend.

Gosha
Short for Hogosha (Lit. Protector), Gosha is the Suzumori family dog and often left babysitting Gisei. The dog is gentle and often amiable, but fiercely protective of Gisei.
