[list][*][u][b]Name:[/b][/u] Tsugihara Shiro [*][u][b]Age:[/b][/u] Currently looks about 14. [*][u][b]Gender:[/b][/u] Female [*][u][b]Race:[/b][/u] Human (Cursed) [*][u][b]Appearance:[/b][/u] [url=https://i.imgur.com/C1CJjzA.png]Quite youthful, definitely short.[/url] [*][u][b]Personality:[/b][/u] Primarily quite polite and composed, Shiro is stand-offish and reluctant to associate with about half of everyone she could possibly meet. The other half she's friendlier with--[i]particularly[/i] if she deems them cute or sexy [i]and[/i] they're not running in terror, at which point it goes from friendly to "touchy and trying to get into their pants". Although slightly because she doesn't want to be alone and likes warmth, it's mostly because she's a massive pervert, extremely gay, and doesn't have much in the way of impulse control. [*][u][b]Abilities:[/b][/u] Shiro was once cursed, given as an offering to ward off a vengeful god... and although she's survived, the curse has permanently marked her. The god, after all, was as much a god of snakes and reptiles as a god of health and rebirth, and Shiro carries the physical branding on her back. It also means that she has a lot of abilities [i]related[/i] to snakes. The most obvious is that she can communicate with them, summon weaker snakes, and call to any stronger ones that might be around to listen. Both snakes and people also automatically view her [i]as[/i] one, to a degree, which is a great help for associating with them... but not with people. Of course, she can also push the association further, shedding her skin to heal from injuries or reverse ageing, or transform her body steadily into that [i]of[/i] a mighty serpent piece by piece. The venom is particularly excruciating. Fortunately, she can perfectly well survive on raw meat. Unfortunately, anything [i]but[/i] meat tends to make her quite sick. Similarly, her body temperature is quite low and she prefers to seek out warmth. [*][u][b]Skills:[/b][/u] She can start a fire and roast meat well enough, as well as take good care of her clothing. [*][u][b]Backstory:[/b][/u] It's been a long time since Shiro got stuck with her curse, and as much fun as it is to be that snake in the woods tempting and then sleeping with woodcutters' daughters... well, it's far too lonely, and has way too much hunting for dear for her tastes. Sure she could keep going, but technology is improving and cities are more and more prevalent; the isolated houses where she'd find someone that doesn't mind a snake in human form are a lot rarer. A new world... a new start... well, that sounds good. But for Shiro? The more important and more obvious temptation... ... a world with a lot more [i]interesting people[/i] is going to have [i]way[/i] more cute girls that won't scream in terror.
