'Ight, I was struggling a bit because I don't know a lot about the lore at work here. But here's an attempt thanks to Google, lol [hider=Kiyoko][center][img]https://img.roleplayerguild.com/prod/users/c68ab764-6e66-4280-9837-63d75949a4fb.png[/img] [h3]Kiyoko Yachi | 18 | Youkai (Bakeneko)[/h3][/center] [justify][indent]Appearance: Among humans, Yachi is otherwordly in her beauty: fair skin and eyes like sapphires earn her a double take. Her pupils are reminiscent of that of a cat. Among youkai, she looks rather human: shorter than most women with long, unkempt hair. She's thin and small. Her clothing of choices tends to be dark in color and high up on her legs. Her natural form is that of a small cat, fur white like snow and eyes just as they are when she's human. Abilities: [indent]- Shape shifting. Her natural form is that of a small white cat, but she can take on human or other feline forms as well. Her eyes are always that clear blue, however. - Athleticism. As a cat first, Yachi is very nimble and well coordinated. She's not particularly strong, but she's stealthy and fast. - Sharp senses. Yachi can see better than most at night and has heightened hearing and smell, much like a cat. [/indent] Equipment: N/A Personality: Yachi is relatively young and optimistic, seeing the good in the world around her despite the betrayal she felt in the past. She is aware of her idealism, however, and hides behind a hard layer of cautiousness when dealing with strangers. This can manifest in a number ways, including sarcasm and blatant rudeness. Past that, she has a good sense of humor and can be surprisingly light hearted. At work or in a professional environment, she's almost overly cheerful and accommodating. History: Yachi was born into the world as a house cat in winter, the runt of the litter. She was given the name Sora for her blue eyes against her white, white fur. She was treated well by her owners and lived a long life under them as a cat. It was as she grew into old age for a cat that she started to change from normal animal to supernatural being, a youkai. Then a catalyst occurred, pushing her transformation further. There was a home invasion by a few thugs on her owners' while the family was home. Needless violence ensued, but Sora was able to protect them: she grew many times larger--rivaling a tiger in size--and attacked the assailants. While she was successful in protecting her human companions, they were terrified of her even as she returned to her normal form of a runt. Sora was abandoned by them, but her transition into youkai was complete: she took human form and now walks among humans. She's mostly ignorant of the "other" world due to her young age as a youkai, but she's curious and open to learn. Other: She works at a cafe to get by.[/indent][/justify][/hider]
