Reiko Inari
02-19-14, 05:53 PM
Name: Reiko Inari
Age: Unknown, older than she looks
Race: nine tailed Kitsune (cursed)
Height: 3'7”
Build: Slight childlike
Occupation: Lesser Guardian
Personality: Rei is somewhat shy, a little awkward in social situations. She does have a bit of curiosity and likes to explore and often can be playful once she gets to trust a person.
History: Reiko was born into the Inari family, a small clan of Kitsune in Akashima. They are live in a small evergreen forest called Stormshadow. Her Parents were considered the lords of the forest and people would give them sacrifice for safe passage. Due to Rei's lineage, she was giving the duty of guarding the Yukikage, an enchanted blade made from the fang of an ice dragon. The vixen had served her role for centuries and became known as a guardian of spring, praised for the snow melting and blamed for winter storms by local villagers.
She was very comfortable in her role until growing her ninth tail and then she got curious. The kitsune started to explore more and spent more time going into the village to observe people and trade her sacrifices for other goods. This wanderlust had caused Reiko to lapse on her guard of the Yukikage and a thief from the Ironfang clan (rival kitsune clan). Rei was cursed by the dark kitsune when he stole the blade, forcing her to search not only for the sword but a way to restore her magic powers.
Appearance: Reiko is a small kitsune, she walks upright like a man and has a stature of a girl about 11 years of age. She is covered in white fur all over her body and her face is mostly vulpine and youthful, her blue hair hangs down to her middle back.
Rei prefers to wear her favorite silk kimono, it's of a pink color and with flower print ad a red obi. It is a strange color for an Akishiman kimono but she does look cute in it.
Skills:
Herbalism: Rei is a natural at Herbalism, she is an excellent gardener and can tell if a plant is poisonous or not, her elemental affinity for plants allows her to tell the nature of plants that she hasn't even seen before. Rei also can tell if the herb is used in a remedy, like that a certain weed can prevent infection or act as an anti-venom.
Kenjutsu: Rei has played a bit with a sword. She's by no means great but she has had some sparring with samurai that visited her grove and didn't have a sacrifice. Her small build means she cannot use no dachi and katanas must be wielded two handed and wakizashis in her main hand.
Alchemy: Rei is capable of making some alchemy if the potions have only plant based ingredients. She can make some health potions and sleeping powder. (though she must earn potions as spoils.)
Abilities:
Fox's grace: Rei is fairly graceful, she has a good since of balance and apt at dodging attacks as well as being able to balance on a branch the thickness of her arm.
Elemental Magic- Plants: Rei is a forest fox and her affinity is for plants and she can manipulate them with her innate magic. Her magic is limited by a curse unless in her grove, nothing done inside her grove can leave if it's greater than limitations mentioned ahead. Also her magic can only directly work on sentient plants if they allow it or are lower level, she can still indirectly effect a sentient plant, like having a vine entangle a dryad.
-Growth: Rei can cause a burst of growth in plants, bringing a seed to the size of a sapling as tall as she is. She can cause a vine to grow to the length of 10 meters, She can control the direction of the plant's growth. She can use 3 times before needing a Respite of 10 minutes.
-Mutate: Rei can change the nature of a plant, making is fibers stronger, up to the strength of leather. She could give a plant thorns like that of a rose, thistle or cactus, painful but not deadly. If she makes a plant poisonous, it would be a mild poison that would cause skin irritation, drowsiness or vomiting. Can use Twice before needing a Respite of 10 minutes.
Elemental magic- Foxfire: Being a kitsune, Rei can use foxfire. Harmless foxfire is blue while dangerous foxfire is red.
-bluefire: Rei can conjure coldfire, harmless foxfire that hovers about in orbs. They give light and don't even feel warm to touch. Bluefire is a harmless spell that has no limit, sometimes bluefire is summoned when nervous. The light is gentle and cannot be used to blind or overwhelm senses.
Note on magic: Resting is short but she needs to allow her body and mind rest, she can't do that if trying to avoid an enemy or even focusing on hiding, ergo not during battles.
