Naomi Nagata

• Major
• First seen · Book 1 · Ch. 1

Naomi Nagata is a towering Belter nearly two meters tall with a long thin frame, improbable lightweight bones, and the easy grace of someone raised in low gravity. She possesses deep brown skin, black curly hair kept shiny and typically tied back in a tail with a red band though loose locks often fall across her face, and dark eyes with a hint of epicanthic fold set in features displaying an unusual far-flung racial mix with full lips that press thin when serious or curve into mischievous smiles. Her practical greasy or gray coveralls show her engineering work, a three-inch scar with uneven rippling edges marks her back just above the left buttock, and her expressions range from half-amused annoyance to sleepy sensuality or clever intensity.
