Description
Hitogata
Height: 5'3"
Weight: 110 lb.
Ethnicity: East Asian
Eyes: Brown
Hair: Long simple black
Clothing: Black or white clubwear
Comportment/Cadence: Confident
Distinctions: This intoxicatingly beautiful Japanese woman commands a self-assurance some might call conceit or recklessness, but her natural elegance and grace undermine such assumptions
Supernatural Qualities: none
Accoutrements: Moderate jewelry, a pouch full of ju-fu
Traits: Appearance 5 (slinky); Style 2; Glory 3, Virtue 3, Wisdom 9
Sambuhenge
Height: 5'6"
Weight: 125 lb.
Eyes: Gold
Hair: Long wild black with red streaks
Supernatural Qualities: She seems a little...fuzzier...in this form, with pointier ears and sharper teeth and rather feral eyes, but the change isn't pronounced...indeed, she could be mistaken for a costumed "furry" on her way to a anime convention; in any event, she's still foxy as sin
Traits: Appearance 5 (slinky); Glory 3, Virtue 3, Wisdom 9
Koto
Height: 5'10"
Weight: 130 lb.
Eyes: Gold
Hair: Red fur with black points and white underbelly
Supernatural Qualities: In this elegant "war form", Inazumako looks very much the Fox she is: a human-sized fox-woman, often wearing a (dedicated) silk kimono over top her sleek fur-covered body, with a slim muzzle of teeth she isn't likely to ever use in battle; besides, she is Doshi, so it'd be wiser to fear the cunning in her amber eyes...
Traits: Appearance 0 (5) (slinky); Glory 3, Virtue 3, Wisdom 9
Juko
Height: 6'0"
Weight: 150 lb.
Eyes: Gold
Hair: Red fur with black points and white underbelly
Supernatural Qualities: Closer to a Kitsune's true war-form, as a "dire fox" she comes off as a pony-sized vulpine predator, furry body sleek and nimble, eyes glazed over with a little more savagery than is her norm, and a muzzle more likely to nip—although her preference is to wield a blade (often a wakizashi) with her dexterous mouth, if she chooses to engage in melee battle at all
Traits: Appearance 0; Glory 3, Virtue 3, Wisdom 9
Kyubi
Height: 2'10"
Weight: 27 lb.
Eyes: Gold
Hair: Red fur with black points and white underbelly
Supernatural Qualities: As a common red fox, she is remarkable only that she isn't shyly darting out of sight like a normal fox probably would; her elegant coat is luxurious and those eyes still bear an intelligence that many would wish to write off as their own anthropomorphism transferring human sentience to an animal; how right they are, considering her Foxy intellect is superior to the silly monkeys!
Traits: Appearance 5 (slinky); Glory 3, Virtue 3, Wisdom 9
“Hmm? You asked what I just said? Nothing, nothing, just a euphemism for reverse-engineer.”
History
Date of Birth: November 20th, 1981
Home: Nantan, Kyoto Prefecture, Honshu, Japan
Family: Momoi Haru and Mino Tami (parents)
First Change: Personal Tragedy (Inazumako might have been the luckiest Kitsune ever born, for as Shinju, it was almost a certainty at least one of her werefox parents would perish, but in fact neither did; she was thus raised in the heart of the Beast-Courts, the Court of Silver Clouds outside Kyoto, enjoying loving family and friends; yet, she always had a spoiled and selfish side as if it were endemic to her kind, for she often hoarded things, minor to dangerous; indeed, the little werefox's First Change triggered when she swiped the Seer's favorite fetish, and the powerful talisman triggered her Doshi awareness; her first form was Sambuhenge, as she eagerly manipulated the forbidden puzzle box and was caught right before unleashing an imprisoned Bane), 1986
Mentor: Momoi Haru, Mino Tami, Baba Kazuari
The Test: Trial by Knowledge (her parents were Eji and Kataribe respectively, so could only teach their daughter about the basics of Kitsune life; a proper Doshi schooling would come from an old Hakken hermit, a Theurge living up in Inariyama Mountain; he honed her discipline with the patience and isolation of a hermit "wizard" until she could at least channel her spoiled conceit into willful self-control and was ready to take up the Great Burden)
Comrades: Kimi Maeda, Hotaru, Ang Pan, Fukayume Hajime, Quan Chu Hua, Kagaya Toshi, Kamelia "Jaden" Cailou, Shikibu Ayame, Pae Mi-Yong, Riya Jhangiani, Ang Pan, Bo-Jing Qi, Lajila Andhra, Akina Li
Key Event #1: War (as the Mirror in a war-directed sentai, her first role as hengeyokai had her helping watch over a suspected Kumo nest "for any wrong moves"; Yomi possibly associated with the werespiders tempted her with power, but she resisted; nevertheless, she eventually acted on the insinuated secrets, leading a clearing of the Goblin Spiders' base and salvaging what forbidden mystical secrets she could)
Key Event #2: Awe & Wonder (though considered indiscreet for the attack and eyeballed for the motives behind it, she was celebrated for the initiative she took and even Ranked up)
Key Event #3: War (her studies of arcane secrets flourished; the area near her Beast-Court now fell quite secure save for the occasional Bane infestation usually near human sites; she always helped both detect and wipe out such demons)
Key Event #4: Awe & Wonder (eventually, she ranked up again and was given the position of Assistant Seer, which she took full advantage of to reach out diplomatically to other shen, developing and adapting new arts, Gifts, and magical paths)
Key Event #5: Treachery (Inazumako pushed the envelope too much in her court, however, and while she never outright violated the Mandates, she came dangerously close on many occasions, so under a deal, she agreed to relocate to a different Beast-Court while also accepting a promotion to the rank of Gold)
Transition: Reassignment (her new assignment: overseas in America, not the punishment her elders believed, as she was excited to learn even more magic dirt from exotic sources; however, another well-renowned Doshi, Hotaru, was already on the job, so they butted heads in a friendly rivalry-kind of way)
Paradigm & Style
Overview: Traditional (the magical paths she developed derive from interactions with and observations of Kaizankai Akashayana shinta, so her adaptations involve a kind of ju-fu focused on calligraphy and a variety of special inks, depending on her uses; Hellfire simply requires her to burn the ju-fu paper for the desired effect/attack)
Fetishes
Phoebe's Veil
Appearance: Hung from a leather cord, this golden amulet has kaja glyphs of the Moon inscribed
Origin: Creation
Effects: Turn invisible for a few minutes, once per night
Activation: She grabs a hold of the talisman in her hand and utters the command word
Significant Others
Names: Hotaru, Kamelia "Jaden" Cailou, 2008
Nature: Volatile
Hotaru
Jaden
Weakness
Friends & Foes
Inazumako knows who her friends are, there is no doubt of that. But she sometimes forgets who her enemies are, losing herself in fascinated observation of something foul and vile when she should really just burn it with fire.
Likelihood of Corruption
Average.
Her loyalty to the Beast-Courts help keep her on the straight and narrow even if at times she resents and undermines the inherent "buddy-check" system.
