Andariel rarely found herself in the CBD for a variety of reasons. She disliked the heavily urban environment compared to her cozy cottage in her significantly less crowded neighborhood. She didn't go out much for obvious reasons. The woman had demon heritage and more often than not, people feared her. She was fortunate enough that Kumogakure's most widely accepted religion was fairly permissive about her kind. It gave her a feeling that if she were to be targeted she wouldn't have to suffer from a lot of bias when trying to defend her case.
From her feet Andariel wears a standard pair of black leather combat boots which extend up just below her knees. These are paired with a set of steel plated shin guards which protect the top part of her feet and up to just below the sleeve of her boots. The shin guards are buckled by several straps around the back side. Paired with her setup is a pair of simple black pants offering minimal protection except from the elements. On her top she dons a metallic gray arming coat which protects her torso and arms. The entire affair is shrouded by a short sleeve mail hauberk which had its sleeves ending just at her elbows. The rest of the hauberk extended down to her knees acting like a skirt. She wears a double leather sash around her waist to help distribute the weight of the hauberk, increase mobility, and stow weaponry.
On the far right of her uppermost belt she carries her arming sword. It was a standard arming sword with a leather-wrapped grip, steel pommel, crossguard, and double-edged blade tapering to a point. This was stored in a standard black leather scabbard. On the same belt to her left side is a small steel buckler hooked to her belt by an attachment. Further behind the shield setup are five kunai fitted into slots on her belt being held securely in place. To her right side located before her sword on the second belt she carried a simple one-handed steel mace. Around her back side and secured with a leather strap is a brown leather satchel. Across her torso she wears a leather baldric which supports a two-handed ax worn on her back and a dagger on the front closer to her abdomen. The ax has a sturdy, oak shaft accompanied by a large crescent head. Her lower arms are protected by a set of black leather gloves which cover her hands entirely up to her elbows. Much like her boots these are supported by a pair of steel arm guards protecting the forearm and back hands.
Andariel herself is a tall, voluptuous woman standing 6'2 and weighing 160 lbs. Her skin is a pure white tone free from any blemishes, sun marks, or body hair. The only sign of hair on her body is from her head. Silky, jet black hair cascades down her back ending just at her tailbone. Her eyes are a golden amber and standard in appearance. Protruding through her hair Andariel has a pair of white horns which extend outwards but curve just slightly inwards towards the end allowing them to serve as functional tools in combat if necessary.
She'd make her way to a shop which specialized in taking custom orders. Given her unnatural strength she needed an unnaturally powerful bow to make the most out of her muscles. She was a knight more than a ninja as she seldom carried any common tools most ninja did. She favored the weapon and armory from her homeland over the exotic items used by the fighters here. But perhaps the most iconic tool for human survival and prosper was the bow which could be find in just about every culture. Andariel lacked any means to engage in mid to long range attacks serving as a glaring weakness to her fighting style. By becoming practical with a bow she would cover most of her weaknesses. She knew she had to do this.
Following the stone brick main road through the Shinjuku area she'd find her destination serving as one of the larger buildings on the block. It read "Blood, Blades, and Beyond", an alliteration similar to Andariel's preferred bath store. Entering the building she'd be surprised at the relatively modern interior which was unusual for a place dealing in weaponry. The assistants were equally dressed giving the shop a very professional feel despite numerous display weapons of rather superior quality. Andariel was in the market for something out of the ordinary, so she figured it was best to speak with someone at the counter. Approach the front she'd wave shyly to get the clerk's attention while speaking. "Oh, excuse me miss! I was curious if you were the one I'd speak to place an order regarding something specific." Andariel would hope that was enough to grab her attention, though given how busy the place was she might have to wait.
