[Hider=Issun] [u]Basic Information[/u] Name: Issun Age: Unknown for sure Gender: Male Species: Poncle Orientation: (OPTIONAL) Straight Fandom They’re From: Ōkami, Ōkami HD and Ōkamiden OC or Canon?: Canon Role: (Scientist, Medbay Staff, Research Assitant, Guard, Experiment, Misc Role) Guard, as he serves as Amaterasu's voice Appearance: For scale reference: [img]https://ih1.redbubble.net/image.2132980566.0028/flat,750x,075,f-pad,750x1000,f8f8f8.jpg[/img] Close up: [img] https://static.rprepository.com/storage/uploads/gallery/gl-1475715-1681060191.jpg [/img] [u]Personality, Powers, Abilities and Weapons[/u] Personality: is very talkative, as he comments on almost anything Amaterasu encounters. As Amaterasu is mute for the duration of the game, he will often speak for her, which often gets them both into trouble. He is reliable, intelligent and adventurous, except for when he is following a "cute babe". He is also very blunt and rude in his speech, often cutting straight to the point or openly insulting other people. Issun was very immature and irresponsible at the start of the adventure, but towards the end he matures and becomes more serious as he realizes his true destiny. Issun is quite flirtatious and falls in love with practically every single major female character he and Amaterasu encounter (ie: Sakuya, Rao etc.). Upon meeting Queen Himiko, he falls off Amaterasu's head with shock. However, he is usually ignored. He also shows strong feelings of anger and vengeance when he finds that Rao was murdered and Ninetails took her place. Issun's behavior towards Amaterasu later on in the game (when he becomes conflicted about parting ways with her) indicates that he has developed a strong sense of friendship with the god. He was at first only tagging along so he may learn the 13 brushes but it eventually developed into a deep friendship with Amaterasu. Powers: (If Applicable) N/A Abilities: His Artwork Weapons: (If they have weapons available) His trusty sword by the name of Denkomaru, which doubles as a paint brush [u]Backstory and Other Info[/u] Backstory: (OPTIONAL) Issun was born in Ponc'tan, village of the Poncles, in Kamui. Issun originally was training to be the next Celestial Envoy from his grandfather, the previous Celestial Envoy and Amaterasu's companion during her first battle with Orochi 100 years ago. However, Issun grew tired of how Ishaku never recognized his skill and eventually stole a drawing Ishaku once drew of Kamiki Village's guardian tree sprite, Sakuya (which he would claim was his own work afterwards), ran away from Ponc'tan, and ended up in Nippon. Soon after, he eventually reached Kamiki Village and interacted with the residents for some time. He also met the real Sakuya and developed a habit of sleeping in 'the valley of her chest'. It is unknown exactly how old Issun is, his proportions are similar to a human child's but this appears to be a trait shared by all adult Poncles, and so does not nessecarily suggest that he is young. His manner of speaking and his frequently describing himself as a 'man', discussions of enjoying alcohol, and behaviour as a whole suggest very strongly that he has been an adult for some time. He also consistantly regards human children and teenagers as significantly younger than he is, but speaks to Susano in a manner that suggests Susano is comparatively older than Issun. This would indicate that Issun's age is most likely the equivalent of a human adult in their 20s or 30s in terms of maturity, but since Poncles live for hundreds of years it is difficult to be sure of his precise age. Some say that he is in his late teens, perhaps early 20s, since he was mapped onto the "little boy" skeletal structure also used for Mushi and Kokari, as their animations are nearly the same. Speculation typically suggests that Issun is roughly 50 years old. Other Info: His grandfather was Amaterasu's previous Celestial Envoy. He is the nineth Celestial Envoy. [/hider]
