Background/History: Puuca is the daughter of the owner of a Chinese restaurant in Soong Village, where she works as a delivery girl. A sweet, innocent and trusting soul, she has become fixated on the wandering ninja Garu, whom she has decided is her destined true love. As a result, she will obsessively seek his company and protect him, whether he wants her to or not.

Personality/Motivation: Puuca is A Girl In LOVE WITH A CAPITAL L. Her passion is being in Garu's presence, and she will chase him the length and breadth of the world to indulge it. Garu has enemies, and they are thus her enemies too. But usually she will be lovingly, blissfully innocent and unaware that Garu is trying to avoid her (she apparently thinks he's playing hard to get—the delicious irony is that she may be right).

Quote: "Coo coo kiss kiss." (Puuca never speaks, but can bill and coo with the best of them)

Powers/Tactics: Puuca is FAST. REALLY, REALLY FAST. It doesn't take her long to get a full head of steam, and when she does she can catch up to her quarry with blinding speed. A talented straight-ahead fighter, she will use her Kung Fu skills to beat up anyone who threatens Garu (and has been know to turn them on Garu when he ignores her especially egregiously). Puuca is especially formidable when she's angry—she is able to focus her ki to alarming degrees and perform truly prodigious feats of strength (such as throwing a man into low Earth orbit).

Campaign Use: Wherever Garu is, there will be Puuca, racing after him in a sort of eternal game of Lover's Tag.

Appearance: Puuca is a short little girl in her early teens. She is almost always seen in a traditional Chinese servant girl's outfit (with pants in place of the skirt). Her black hair is worn in an "odango-tama" style, bound into two buns on either side of her head and covered in black cloth.
