Originating from the bottom of her wide and icy blue eyes and dropping down either cheek, Captain Anrui has wide genetic tattoos of blood tears. To her, they are symbolic of the Ketsurui Clan. Her grey skin is otherwise uninterrupted, save for the normal features of a NH-33. Her patel purple brows are thicker towards their centers than the ends and are framed by two knife-like slivers of hair that frame her bangs above, which change once in awhile, usually cycling between straight, to the side, or simply a middle part that the slivers stem from. Her long, straight hair is a soft lavender throughout, lighter at the top than bottom, which she wears in high twin tails on either side of her head, though their end lengths still cascade in an area between her butt and knee. Keiu Anrui has a short build at 4 foot nine inches, and small proportions.

The resourcefulness and charismatic nature of Keiu Anrui help her find success in herself and her crew. She is trustworthy of those that have proven themselves, but expects nobody to jump through hoops to prove anything to her. Though responsible and willing to take responsibility for her mistakes and that of her crew, she can be stingy with resources and personal information- seen by her as a way to balance obligations she feels towards her fellow Yamataians.

She has been taught to fish and handed fish, metaphorically. She has tasked herself in YE 41 with becoming a better teacher and with learning better from others as she herself doesn't agree with being metaphorically handed something she could learn to get for herself and doesn't want to get used to teaching others that the easier route is the best one. She wants to see others able to help themselves, but it's not always easy helping them there without those pitfalls.

Captain Anrui is unmerciful with her enemies and not outwardly loving with her allies, but she feels for both of them. She grapples with understanding what it is that makes war what it is, but has never voiced these inner thoughts.

Keiu Anrui was born in YE 33 on Nataria. She pushed through basic and was admitted into being trained for a yellow paneled Star Army Cook, based on her volunteer-made dishes at basic. The first day of training to be a cook met her with being walked down the halls of the training fort and was sent to become a science officer instead, primarily due to Keiu causing an intentional chemical reaction and otherwise flustering the head chef with questions within the first three hours of chef courses.

Three years after completing science training, she had been serving aboard a single ship for the majority of her time, shifting between bridge and away-based positions before she returned to the Star Army Academy once more, this time to begin training for an officer position. Her captain liked her enough to give her hands on training on their ship, but a love affair with the XO meant they had less time to devote to the engaging mind of Keiu. Before Keiu Anrui began courses, she found herself pining for a new body and moved from a tall, pink haired, peachy fleshed, and golden eyed body she had inhabited before to the grey-skinned and blood tear-marked one she has inhabited since.

Three months later, after basic officer courses and command tactics training, Keiu was ready to serve as a Shoi for the first time. She was stationed as an XO on a Plumeria that had run into some bad luck recently. The XO, alongside her captain, worked hard and well to turn the ship around. Keiu Anrui found she was able to plant her foot into the chain of command well. She had a knack for thinking through the crew's desires and concerns and finding their solutions before moving them on to the captain. She found pride in being able to report the success of mediation on her part more than trifles to her captain. Her leadership qualities made her approachable and reliable, but Keiu didn't believe she was cut out for proper command of a ship for a long time.

The time came that she was offered a promotion to the title of captain, though, along with her own ship. The offer sat heavy on her mind and after a tender and, at times, bittersweet, conversation with her captain, a decision was made. She took the position as a captain of a starship. Her ship's maiden voyage was frought with difficulties but the first battle won spilled into the second and then tenth. As a seasoned captain, she fought valiantly defending her homeland along with many others in the end of the Kuvexian War and found herself commanding a small grouping of ships during relief efforts for prisoners of war through PEARL. Now she has command of an Izanagi-Class Dreadnought, a powerful and beastly ship capable of mass destruction, in order to utilize it for peacetime purposes of relocating refugees. Having climbed the ladder to command originally by helping those around her feel safe and happy, the posting is as comfortable to Anrui as wearing her hair in twin tails.

Keiu Anrui has the following notable skills:

• Star Army Common Skills
• Domestic: Keiu Anrui is a great chef. Yearly, she takes on a new set of challenges. Whether that be to find out more about a set of trends in the culinary world or to take on a new part of being a cook that she feels she is lacking in, Keiu sets and meets goals for herself in this field and shares the results with her crew if they are successful and to her liking. She has great rapport with the yellow panels on her ship and works with them as well as allows them time off in order to make what she describes as “experiments”.
• Biology, Chemistry, Sociology, Mathematics: Initially, Keiu was fully trained in the sciences as a science officer and has all the prerequisite skills of one, as well as a deep love of both astrobiology and artificial intelligence and sometimes pontificates on how they tie in with one another.
• Knowledge: Captain Anrui knows the laws and history of the Yamatai Star Empire and has great memory, is able to recall and reference information
• Communications (included in common): KeiuAnrui knows Trade (language), Yamataigo (邪馬台語), and has looked into Saalsari a bit, as well as Takavonai (Language), but has yet to find a use for her knowledge of these last two tongues outside of greeting.
