Karin's Mother

She was a fairly tall and light-skinned woman with grey eyes. Common among those of Uzumaki descent, she had bright red hair, which was straight, chin-length and parted to frame both sides of her face. Like her daughter, after her passing, the woman possessed countless bite-marks about her body from repeatedly letting people feed on her chakra to heal.

Karin's mother came to Kusagakure while her daughter was still young. The two were allowed to stay, provided that the mother would use her powers to heal the injured of the village under watch by Zōsui. As the fighting broke-out, the mother was forced to regularly over-use her powers. Eventually, she died from healing too many people at once. This led the leaders of Kusagakure to pass on her former duties to Karin.
