Bearing Laterality Scars Markings Style Gentle, Affectionate Ambidextrous/Right Handed Preference None Scales with a Gem-like sheen on her skin, very minimal Elegant, modest and pretty fashions. Hair & Eyes Dark Hair: Steel Gray with Red Hues & Gold-brown eyes with Gold Limbals Physique Petite height, toned and well-shaped figure that's proportionate around her hips and bust for her frame but also visibly "womanly". Her legs are elegant from dancing, and strong. Hygiene & Attire Smells clean and pleasant, has no BO at any time, even when sweating, due to a scent around her that emanates from her naturally. Some say it resembles the Flower of the Stars, Agar or Plum Blossoms. Prefers girlish, pretty fashions, usually not too revealing, and modest. Personality Psychological Profile A generally kind, and understanding person who reserves judgement on even her enemies, she's patient and observant with everyone and doesn't jump to conclusions. It takes a lot to rile her up, though she is reserved and shy otherwise. Voice [3] Philosophy & Mannerisms "Forgiveness is wisdom, but ignorance is foolhardy." Her demeanour is proper and refined, behaving respectably towards everyone, even those she knows are questionable. With friends, she becomes relaxed and sweet, even playful, though there's a gentle and regal touch to her behavior, a remnant of her upbringing. Some of her quirks involve using "Mm!" which she uses in place of "Yes" at times. She can switch between a "professional" personality that's more charming, to a regular one pretty quickly. Just happens. She's also book-smart and has a sharp memory and rarely forget faces or names.

Combat, Abilities & Weaponry Basic Statistics High: Aetheric Abilities, Intelligence, Mind, Speed Above Average: Dexterity, Willpower, Determination, Stamina Average: Strength, Defense, Endurance Low: Resistance Aetheric Abilities Mastery: Seeing/Hearing through the use of her aetheric manipulation, capable of calling forth visions of the past and future through dance and touch. Expert: Thaumaturgy/Healing/Conjury/Astromancy/Aetheric Infusion Average: Summoning/Arcanima Novice: Voidal Summoning Weapon Training Mastery: Himantes/Jamadhar/Combat Hand Fans Expert: Bow Average: Swords/Daggers Novice: Heavy Weaponry/Guns Combat Relevant Skills High: Acrobatics, Distraction, Strategy Above Average: Parkour, Infusion of Aether into movements, self-healing Average: Awareness, can get tunnel-visioned Low: Self-preservation, can get aggressive when cornered Non-Combat Abilities ● Dancing: An expert dancer with very little she can't dance - she's currently learning Eorzean dances! ● Singing/Music: Trained with traditional Doman singing styles and instruments (koto, flute, erhu) ● Languages: Learned in xaelic tongue for diplomatic missions and Eorzean common. Confirmed polyglot, has learned and picks up languages very well, including signs (for Qestiri communication). ● Divination: A heightened sixth sense that can pick up aetheric abnormalities and voidal presences, as well as strong aetheric energies. This in fact, as a form of the Echo, allows her to call upon visions of the past and future through dance if they didn't come to her through dreams and sensitivity. Known as an oracle back in her homeland, Kitsuno was renowned as the Dancing Fox Oracle. While the ability came naturally to her through touch and dreams, dancing allowed her to immediately summon up what was asked of her. Unfortunately, it came with the side effect of draining a serious amount of aether, and after the disappearance of her former fiance Yaheji, she'd been unable to call up any visions, but remained ever sensitive to the presence of aether around her- as well as the voices of the land and spirits, though after his return, she's slowly recovering her ability- and thanks to Gareki, her sight has awakened once more. ● Glamors: Capable of casting light glamors and illusions on herself and around herself without transforming her physical form, but enough to be convincing. This includes creating "doubles" of herself acting in individual behavior should she need to make an escape, or of someone else. Think Jem and the Holograms. ● Pheromones: Due to the circumstances of her birth, she releases a pleasant scented pheromone along with her natural scent that affects men with inclinations towards women (because she herself has inclinations towards men). It isn't dangerous, though depending on her own condition, its effects can vary in intensity, and if she doesn't control it (be it through meditation, coupling or dance), it can trigger sensations of arousal in men who spend a lot of time around her continuously. However, she has now taken to wearing a special inhibitor that keeps this from affecting people around her and at most, only a pleasant, clean scent will surround her. Tradecraft Abilities ● Weaving: A skilled weaver and embroiderer ● Culinary: Can cook most Doman dishes, and is well-versed in teas. OOC Note Kitsuno is not a hardened war veteran or combatant, having been raised as a princess all her life. What she knows is enough to defend herself, as well as others around her, and she's still currently training as best as possible to overcome her limitations. She makes full use of strategy to get ahead and come out the victor.

History "I'm a princess. Princess Kitsuno of the Ishida clan, heir to the Kingdom of Sawa... I'm a Seer, or an Oracle. Or was. When I danced, I was able to see visions- of the future. People came to watch me, even as a child. I saw many things for my people. My fathers protected me- and my retainers. It was loud, in my head. Always loud. But when I was with Wen, and eventually Yaheji, the noise would stop. It wouldn't be loud anymore. Sawa was a land built on magic and fertility- a guardian enclave, in the name of Tamamo no Gozen, where her blood reigns strong. We revere her, the good in her, that protects the land. My father is a mage- one fully of her guardian blood, my other father a scholar, half hyur. When they wed, Tamamo gave them a vision- that they would have their love fulfilled, but to fulfill her need- to have her voice in the land, they would ally with the dragons in my birth. And so they sought the power of the dragons. Dragons can shift form to birth what they need- and the fertility of the foxes allows them to do the same. They'd longed for children, but loved each other too much to want anyone else to bear me. Funny, isn't it? I was born from a wish, and a vision of guidance. I hear- it happens. When people wish hard enough here... So they did as they were guided. From the Flower of the Stars, and the Fox's blessing, I came into the world. But all the same... what came with me, gave me that skill. But no blessing comes without a price. Mine was seeing... everything. Everything, good, and bad, and horrifying. Tamamo's bloodline is strong and noticeable... all those of the royal bloodline contain the traits of it. The fragrance of the fox-flowers- the glittering scales, tying those closely to Tamamo's desires. When we come of age, it blossoms... But for me- It was maddening. Because after a certain vision I had- the seal on my scent broke. It became loud, frightening. I could see too much. People could feel me too strongly. I had to be hidden away- quenched with my adoptive brother. My fathers were quick to seek a partner for me- a raen by the name of Yaheji. He was a kind, but calculating Lord. He realized that by bonding with me through our hearts, we'd seal my scent to him more strongly. I fell in love- and with him, there was silence, and I could think. Beni and Naya, they protected me, and they trained me... how to focus on the physical, to keep the noise down. How to quiet myself. Gareki and Megumi worked ways to inhibit my scent. They're Keepers too. Megumi's a wonderful chemist... Gareki's an excellent engineer, but I digress. They did all that for me. Everyone did. I was happy, because I had everyone, and I was myself. Until I didn't. Then he vanished, seeking power in the void.. and everything shattered. The silence wasn't there anymore. My thoughts maddened me for a while, though I could no longer see. He'd taken my sight, but left me with the noise. It was frightening. They still do sometimes. That's why I dance. It keeps the noise out. And when my heart is at ease... It's why I do so much. Because when I don't, I feel like I'm going to drown in the thoughts around me." — Kitsuno Ishida Disclaimer: Still a work in progress, so have a basic gist. Sixth Astral Era Childhood Raised a princess, was around 12-13 during the Calamity, and had foreseen it in her nightmares. It was around here that her abilities began to cause her to suffer mentally. Seventh Umbral Era Adulthood Grew up rather distanced from the strife and conflict in a small kingdom that was mostly removed from it all, save in rescuing and aiding victims of the strife that happened their way. Through this she was able to meet many interesting folk, including her friends and eventually, her lover.. who wasn't as kind as she thought he was. In Recent Times Moving Forward Having enjoyed peace while being hidden away, the Garleans finally found their land, as well as that of the hidden village that was making weapons and supplying them to the growing insurgence, and she had to escape with her retainers and friends. She lost her now-former fiance a year prior to it and ended up in Eorzea, only to live as a courtesan for a bit to make ends meet while hiding from her enemies. She now owns the Ryuusei Tea Room as its proprietress, and lives at Sawayama Sanctuary in Shirogane, which she's turned into a home for those who need work.

Zafir Dotharl Arecia's Subordinate/Strategist. (Au Ra/Xaela) - ● Zahir's younger brother and a little more educated, Zafir is a calculating strategist, a surprise where it comes to the more aggressive Dotharl. Overcoming his physical weakness in combat through tactfulness, he guides his brother and has done so in every life they've claimed to have- though as Kitsuno managed to confirm, he does so out of fear of losing his sibling every reincarnation.

(Keeper) - ● A Keeper she met during her earlier days as a courtesan who she became fast friends with, until within a week of claiming he had feelings for her, he turned against her when he found a new girl to his interest. While Kitsuno adores the girl he suddenly began to date without any explanation to her, she feels as though Naih'li is without any morals and ultimately, his lying and secrets have cooled her feelings for him to the point where she will no longer acknowledge him as anything more than a passing interest. S'honji Hayakawa Hired Criminal/Enemy. (Seeker) - ●✖ A criminal and self-proclaimed "Prince of Thieves", S'honji has been a thorn in her side since the day she ran into him, and he likes to antagonize her every so often, which she ignores.

(Hyur) - ✖ The leader of the enemy clan of Mikawa and an obsessive man bent on domination and control, he's long since been at odds with the Ishida since his father went against her own and plotted to gain her through his brother Yaheji.

Danced at the Quicksand for a moon or so, and in all that time, she gave all that coin to the needy around the city. She's got a heart of gold, that one. Wonder if she ever found who she was looking for... Well, you could ask her for yourself when she comes down here! Be nice to her, okay?" — Momodi Modi - The Quicksand. ■ "Kitsuno! She was dancing at the tavern and doing a few jobs around for coin when she got here, all alone and troubled. The girls loved having her around.

Haha, we're the first tavern to serve it, now!" — Roger - The Coffer and Coffin. ■ "Lady Kitsuno... a wonderful presence who I had the honor of hosting for a few suns during her time studying at the Astrologicum.

It's an aphrodisiac. Comes right from her too... wonder if she'd bleed it out. Might make a nice perfume." — Shady Merchant. ■ "Oh, yeah, she works around here.
