Name: Avery Grant
Age: 19
Species: Kitsune
History: Avery was born like most others, a typical human. Her parents were businessmen who often had to travel to places all over the world, and would sometimes bring along their only child. It was on one such trip to Japan that Avery found herself changed. A ninko, a mischievous invisible fox spirit, possessed the body of the three years old child. Her parents had been terrified because of the different stories that revolved around the ninko, and they immediately took Avery to get the spirit out. They soon became aware that the spirit had been looking for a home - for what, the elders were not sure - and had bonded with Avery, giving her the powers of a kitsune.
As Avery grew older, she showed the signs of her possession in the most troublesome of ways. The young girl would often shift into her fox form and breathe tiny bolts of lightning at the other kids or creating illusions to pull pranks on them. She was often reprimanded, though, and as she matured, she learned to control herself. It became apparent to her that the spirit infused in her body had become her. There was no separating them now. They were the same person - the same soul.
Still, being born human, Avery only has some of the powers of a kitsune. Her lifespan is long, but she is not immortal. She can shapeshift into a fox, but without the nine tails. She can breathe lightning, but only when in her fox form and it is limited in amount and strength. She can create illusions, but they require an obscene amount of concentration to maintain. The only kitsune ability in which she is not hindered in is flight.
