Le renard à six queues se tenait devant le temple de Thea avec un regard tranquille sur son visage, ses longs cheveux blancs et ses queues oscillant doucement dans la brise. Il n'a pas été surpris de se retrouver dans cette étrange nouvelle terre ; certainement il ne s'y attendait pas, mais la surprise était réservée aux choses conçues comme hors du domaine de la possibilité. Son expression stoïque n'a pas non plus faibli en lisant la courte lettre qui lui avait été remise. Des mots curieux, mais peut-être pas si étranges; n'est-ce pas le but ultime de la connaissance et de la sagesse pour obtenir l'omniscience, et n'est-ce pas l'omniscience réservée au domaine des dieux? Non, "surpris" n'était certainement pas le bon mot pour ce qu'il ressentait... Un petit sourire serein s'est glissé sur le visage comme il l'a pris dans ses environs.
Il devint immédiatement évident qu'il n'était pas seul ici. Plusieurs autres étrangers se tenaient près de lui dans divers niveaux d'incrédulité. Il n'avait jamais vu leur tenue. Il a pris une profonde respiration d'air à travers son nez; leurs odeurs étaient étrangères. Etaient-ils du même monde? Eh bien, il semblait que d'où ils venaient, peu importe, et il a bientôt cessé de réfléchir trop profondément à ce qui se passait. Après tout, la lettre l'a assuré qu'il comprendrait tout dans le temps.
Name: Ayako
Nickname: none
Age: 346
Birthday: March 20
Origin: Legend says that foxes who live to a ripe old age attain sentience, wisdom, and power. The longer a fox lives, the more wisdom and power he obtains. Ayako was one such fox, a brilliant student among the wise old kitsune who taught him, and a leader among his peers. Having obtained his sixth tail, Ayako was whisked away to Desnia, where he will continue to walk along the path towards omniscience...
Deity: Deity of compassion.
Hair Color: White
Hair Style: Long, straight, flowing hair, down past his shoulders (different than the pick, but that was the closest I could find).
Eye Color: Bright blue (again, different than pic).
Skin Color: Mildly fair.
Height: 5'10''
Body Build: Lean, but strong
Markings: A crimson circular symbol on his forehead with lines that streak back behind his ears. Each of his six white tails has a crimson tip.
Demi-description: He is a deity of compassion, which is not to be confused with meekness or gullibility. He actively seeks to help others, resolve conflicts, and build friendships, and he has a calm and tranquil voice that is quite good at achieving this end. On principle, he will never deny someone who asks him for help, so long as the request is within his power and is not laced with ill-will or laziness. Likewise, on principle, he will never force his help on someone who outright refuses to accept his aid. With compassion, comes an undying loyalty to his friends and those cruel enough to make an enemy of him will find that this fox has quite a ferocious bite.
Background: Upon acquiring sentience, Ayako was quick to walk down the path of wisdom. Unlike many of his brethren, Ayako actively sought out wise masters to teach him the ways of the universe, and impressed them not just with his talent, but with his humility. He gained a reputation as an altruist, helping man and spirit alike. Some became jealous of his reputation and whereas Ayako acquired power through wisdom, there were those who sought to steal it through force. Ayako found a way to protect himself, though, and performed the unprecedented, absorbing the essence of his Hoshi no Tama, the orb that is the source of a kitsune's power. Upon doing so he acquired his sixth tail and vanished from the world, arriving in Desnia.
Personality: Ayako has a very agreeable personality, and sees the best side of people. He is always eager to share his wisdom and enjoys talking on virtually any subject. He is an inquisitive individual, particularly regarding people's personal beliefs, but he is not judgmental, even when he disagrees with people. He will often brush off personal insults, but will not stand for acts of cruelty or deception.
Powers: Through his acquisition of wisdom, Ayako has obtained an innate understanding of martial arts far beyond the physical capabilities of any mortal. He can alter his appearance and take the form of a massive white fox, though he primarily uses this form to intimidate enemies and avoid bloodshed. Finally, Ayako has mastery over foxfire, a wisp-like flame that can take a cool blue color and form any number of illusions, or a bright orange that can create a flame as hot as any forest fire.
Weapons: Ayako has a katana named Junkojuro that has been blessed by the ancient masters. Those who fall to this blade shall never go to hell so long as there is goodness in their hearts.
