Key Event #1: Personal Tragedy (born and raised in small town in Japan; aware of her Kitsune heritage from birth because mother, a Trueborn Kitsune, died in childbirth of the brother she never got to meet; she lost herself in fantasy and folklore after that, even as her father worked hard to ensure she would have a "normal" life)
Key Event #2: Awe & Wonder (Ayame became a successful children's author early on, while her publisher suggested she move to the US for copyright issues)
Transition: Reassignment (wishing to avoid small but known Kitsune populations on America's West Coast, she headed into the heart of the country to Kansas City's Little Asia district, where she remained aloof despite the few werefoxes there showing interest in her as a possible mate)

Nature: Chaste
Pan
Weakness
Commitments
Ayame refuses to turn herself into a self-sacrificing baby-maker for some arrogant werefox. She's enjoying her work as author and illustrator and refuses to give that up just to "give it up".
Likelihood of Corruption
Low.
Despite her chaste attitudes towards Kitsune men, the lead protects her like any valuable Kin.
