Kimiko Itou is the sole survivor of the Itou Clan, who were exterminated during an attack by the Village Hidden in the Clouds when they tried to kidnap Hinata Hyuuga while guised as being on a mission of peace.
At the time the senior member of the "Diplomatic Mission" was slain by Hiashi Hyuuga, head of the Hyuuga clan, within the walls of the Hyuuga clan compound, the other ninja on the mission lead a more open assault on the Itou compound.
In the morning, the Third Hokage, along with ANBU special operations teams, and a contingent of Hyuuga clan volunteers, lead by Hiashi Hyuuga himelf, initiated a search of the Itou clan compound for survivors. After four fruitless hours, they finally found a little 3 year old girl wandering around, crying, carrying a piece of pink cloth and a star-shaped pendent.
For years since, Kimiko has trained herself in an attempt to reclaim her barely remembered birthright and avenge her clan. Around age 6, she encountered Nakahito Haruno who promised her that he would always be there to help her. They've been friends ever since.
She is considered tomboyish and has few close female friends in her class - mainly because she feels that Sasuke Uchiha is a self-obsessed jerk, who should count himself lucky that he has any real memories of his own clan - with the sole exception of Hinata Hyuuga and Motoko Hata, her only female friends, and because she shares, to a lesser exent than Hinata, an interest Naruto Uzumaki.
Always ready for a fight ("As tempermental as the ocean" one of the academy instructors is on record as having referred to her,) Kimiko typically carries a array of weapons: 15 Kunai throwing knives, 20 standard-size shurikens, 2 hand held, metal reinforced fans (for concealed weapon possession in formal
situations), a Wusha Whip Chain (the preferred weapon of the Itou clan,) 3
Nekote claw-edged throwing rings, a pair of Tonfa, smoke & flash bombs, Makibishi Spikes, and razorwire.
