[*][u][b]Age:[/b][/u] 18
[*][u][b]Appearance:[/b][/u] [url=https://safebooru.org//samples/3206/sample_e9f7e4f3d238dc63b1feb627308ff46d078a898a.jpg?3333914]Moonlight Fairytale Maiden[/url]. A somewhat short, slight girl always clad in traditional Japanese clothing.
[*][u][b]Personality:[/b][/u] A straightlaced and serious girl. Runa's mentality is one of commitment born from her family's methodology when approaching magecraft: She takes her emulation of the idea of folklore and fairytales quite seriously. This extends to much of what she does, Runa is a quite serious girl who displays a considerable temper and low tolerance for tomfoolery as well as considerable pride in her bloodline and her capabilities as a magus. Runa is also prideful in regards to her deep knowledge of folkore, primarily and particularly Japanese folklore as her family's magecraft is distinctive in its reliance on it. However, at times certain cracks show through Runa's demeanor. She is quite fond of animals, particularly small and soft ones, and is quite easily embarrassed. A particular source of embarrassment is her complete failure when it comes to the subject of preparing food. While certainly not requisite to a magus, her incapability when it comes to cooking is both embarrassing and simultaneously something she will steadfastly refuse to admit to. A dangerous combination.
[*][u][b]Abilities:[/b][/u] The basis of the magecraft of the Tsugihara family is the folklore of their homeland. Stories such as Taketori Monogatari, tales of various yokai, all of these form the foundation of the Tsugihara's craft. However, they are still distinct in practicing magecraft rather then onmyodo. In order to maintain the folkloric image, the Tsugihara dress in traditional clothing, and due to their Japanese blood use exclusively concepts from Japanese folklore for maximum effect. Runa in particular, with her high grade magic circuits, has a variety of spells she is capable of performing, and her affinity to Fire and Air offers her numerous options. Examples include fiery projectiles modeling on onibi and razor gusts of wind modeled on the Kamaitachi. Chief among her tools as a magus is her familiar, a fox capable of taking human form modeled on the ever-popular legend of the kitsune. The primary use of this familiar is as an assistant, both for mundane purposes and for combat. However, she can also be used as something akin to a living magic wand, enhancing Runa's magecraft and permitting long-range rituals.
[*][u][b]History:[/b][/u] The advancement of the Tsugihara's magecraft has long been at the forefront of the family head's thoughts. By utilizing folklore, something that is endlessly recorded and reused, it is believed that they have a solid foundation for their magecraft. However, the creation of Fusang offered a unique opportunity for the Tsugihara heir: to make a contract with a figure whose story was conveyed through the very folklore forming the foundation of their magecraft. The decision to send Runa to Fusang was met with little protest, Runa herself quite eager to carry out what she felt was the opportunity of a lifetime, and did everything she could on her arrival to ensure the Servant she summoned would be a figure of the folklore she remembered without fail. She did not, perhaps, expect Benienma, but she is hardly about to protest upon learning the sparrow was far more then the fairytale conveyed.
