Name: Yumeiko //
Kami no Akame no YumeikoImage/Appearance: A short little lady at 4'6", Yumeiko's human body is strong and curvy. She's a bit lighter than Miyuki in aspects besides musculature, though that isn't saying much. When demi-human, she gets little tufts of white fur over her eyebrows and on her cheek bones, and these mark the edges of patterns on her fox and demi-human fur coats. There's also tufts in the center of her chest, the center of her belly, and the outsides of her thighs. She enjoys the skin of her human body, but also likes the balance of of her fox tails and the hearing of her fox ears.
Race: Kinko Seishin - Golden Spirit Fox
Racial Traits:Shape Shifting - Yumeiko can easily change between her true fox shape, a demi-human shape, and a human shape, but it takes her effort to alter her appearance beyond changing between these shapes.
Animal Senses - Yumeiko has the sharp hearing and smelling of a fox, though her human form does dull these, somewhat.
Longevity - As a spirit fox and a servant of Akame no Kami, Yumeiko enjoys immortality, but not invulnerability. The length of her life has earned her the total of five tails.
Blessed Tail - One of Yumeiko’s tails is blessed and will grant good fortunate. She won’t tell you which. She’s also immune to Miyuki’s cursed tail, on account of her blessed tail. The same goes for Miyuki, though, the wild fox spirit cannot be blessed by Yumeiko’s tail. She cannot tell which tail is cursed, either, however.
Fox Fire - Her Fox Fire, the flames that radiate from the tips of her five tails, is quite a versatile magical ability. It can be used to glamor and transform objects, light fires, or light the way ahead. She can also shoot them as a firebolt projectile. The indigo-violet flames cast an ethereal light and smell faintly of lavender.
Magic Sense - The golden-furred spirit fox can sense the flow of mana in the space around her and, to a lesser extent, far away.
Spirit Medium - Yumeiko can communicate with spirits easily, and can readily form pacts with local kami.
Goddess Power - Under the correct circumstances, Yumeiko can perform great feats by the power and grace of Akame no Kami. She is especially adept at wielding holy or sacred objects, like prayer beads and talismans.
Requirements:Grooming Supplies - Her fur and, more generally, her body, are just two of the ways that she expresses the beauty and elegance of her goddess. She must always look her best, lest she disgrace Kami no Akame.
Taiyaki - The correct energys to project herself to the heavenly plane to commune with Akame no Kami can only be obtained by consuming Taiyaki. Probably. Maybe.
Shrine to Akame no Kami - As a servant to the goddess, Yumeiko requires an adequate space to pray. It must have space for candles and incense and the proper acoustics. In order for her to be able to commune with Akame no Kami, certain rituals and ceremonies must be performed. Usually, these would be performed by priests and priestesses and she would have only to meditate, but, well..
Insulated Room - With the fine senses of an animal, Yumeiko needs sound and scent insulation to truly relax.
Personality: Yumeiko is a professional servant to her Goddess, Akame no Kami, even as she has been sent so far away from her forested mountain home and the sacred grounds there. She tries to be, anyway. Things were a lot easier when she had humans to take care of the tedious bits. It’s definitely a pain to have to do all the work herself.
Though she laments the work, she’s too diligent to give it up. She knows how her goddess affects life across the land, and the power that comes with her diligence in the name of Kami no Akame.
While she appreciates the effort Miyuki puts in to aid her when she provides a mortal with a sacred vision, the Kyuubi could often be rather.. Yumeiko sometimes struggles to keep it together, while Miyuki is adding “allure”. Once or twice, she dropped character and repelled her. She swears Miyuki just wants to flirt.
She can be quite stern when her established expectations are not met. Besides that, she's quite a sweetheart, happy to offer hospitality and a comfortable, quiet place to those she trusts.
Background: Yumeiko once occupied a shine to the fox goddess, out in the mountains. There, she enjoyed a carefree life of the shrine’s spirit animal, loved and worshiped as a representative of Inari no Okami. The shrine maidens would groom her and feed her and perform the necessary rituals and rites, so that she could then ascend and commune with her goddess. At some point, another fox spirit found her way to the shrine and, after a touching story, was let to move in.
The wild fox introduced Yumeiko to many things. Her playfully mischievous nature grew on the shrine fox, and the two grew close. Yumeiko found herself, at times, indulging Miyuki’s vision of herself as a woman of high class. She
had been, for a time. It was a comfort her friend sought, to be treated so. She could indulge her
sometimes. The two of them would quarrel with the other residents of the mountain over territory or visit the humans. Yumeiko would bestow upon them sacred visions, while Miyuki liked to add a certain flair of.. allure, to her appearances before mortals.
The shrine, over time, became a forgotten place, and was eventually abandoned as the occupants faded away, the way time erases things. As the times changed, and people moved on and forgot, a retail developer decided they wanted the land. After a drawn-out, bloodless contention, the foxes were eventually forced out and had to find a new home in the Condos.
Building, Floor, and Room: Building 1, Floor #4, Room #407
Room description: The front door opens to a stone-floored foyer with a step up to a wooden hallway, slightly elevated over the stone floor underneath. At one end of the step, there’s a fox-sized hole. The hallways of the condo aren’t too spawling, and they’re lined with the paper walls and doors you might find in a traditional Japanese home. Tatami mats and a closet full of deployable furniture and other things particular to that space are found in most rooms. From the entryway, there’s an interior courtyard (otherwise known as a lobby, but that feels wrong), and on the far wall a sliding door with a torii gate embedded into the wall around it, leading to the shrine room.
Yumeiko’s room sits on the edge of the courtyard to allow her easy and ready access to the shrine. Within, her room is populated with various small icons of her goddess, like a bobblehead on her desk. She’s got art and calligraphy she’s done up on the walls, as well as a talisman or two mixed in, to prevent a certain someone from coming in uninvited. Which is which? She has one Gundam figure. Just one. She found it.
