Appearance: Betty is a thin woman slightly underweight. Her eyes are brownish green. Her hair is brown, midlength. Her hair is often a subject of embarrassment to her, as having short curled hair is fashionable in the 1930s where she came from, yet her hair is too thin to look good cut short and too stubborn to take to curling well (usually has loose waves in it when she uses curlers). When she ended up in Konoha, she was wearing an out-of-fashion brown-and-cream colored dress from 1935 that had been mended and patched for the past two years with a cheap leather coat she had bought some years before.
Attitude: Panicked when she ended up in the Naruto World, as she and her husband had been in harm's way due to rising flood waters while trying to help out their neighbors. She doesn't speak Japanese, which made it hard for the medic-nins who found her to calm her down. She is prone to depression and worries about the future. Hardworking and very goal oriented. She tends not to speak her mind, which makes it harder for people to guess what she thinks.
Goal: To earn enough money to higher ninjas to help her find a way back to her own world.
Family: Married to one Robert Cooper; mother of two girls, Anne and Mary. This is her main drive to learn Japanese and start working in the Naruto world.
Ninja Rank: None; works as seamstress in a shop in Konoha
Naruto World living: She first woke up in the Konoha Hospital after Kiba and Akamaru found her unconsious and floating down a stream. It was soon clear that she had no money and couldn't speak any known language. Since her language was unknown and she didn't appear to recognize even the most mundane things (how to eat with chopsticks, etc.), the first impression is that a blow to her head caused severe damage to her brain. This impression was turned down by Ino, the famous neurological specialist, who points out if it had been serious brain damage, there would be other things wrong with Betty, such as poor motor skills and sensory problems. Later, she was moved to a homeless shelter in Konoha where a volunteer worker taught her basic Japanese words and phrases. After little over a year of living among the lowest, she had learned enough Japanese to try working on her own. She began to work as a seamstress for a popular shop for custom made clothes. It took another year, but eventually, she earned enough money to hire a team of shinobi to help her find her way home to her family.
Naruto Relations: Uses the services of Hokage Naruto, Kiba, Shino, Hinata, and a blind female Gaara to find her way back home. Not really close to them though. She appreciates their help, but gives them a hard time since she has trouble speaking her mind or giving them any ideas on where she first arrived, especially since a few years has passed since she first ended up in the Naruto world.
Universe: Post-Shippuuden, AU (contains fem!Gaara)
