Design Notes
- Voice Claim - Rebecca Sugar.
- Eyes are always seen as “closed”. The rare occasion that she has her eyes drawn open is mostly for exaggerated expression or highly intense moments.
- Coloration is inspired by Marble Foxes, a type of Red Foxes with a color mutation that leaves them mostly white with marbling of light pink to orange, red, or even brown black and tans. Ayame is considered a Champagne Marble (or Pink Marble) since her marbling came out more pink to softer red.
- She's on the plushier side with her coating, having lived in areas where it's more cold than hot most of the time.
- Ayame’s forehead and cheekbones are tattoos she received when coming of age,the ones along her forehead are specific for becoming a Seer. They’re representative for not only three timelines: past, present and future, but for the three keaton tails. A familiar saying shared in her den was: “Keeping all tails steady in the present” meaning to stay focused." The eyeshadow on the other hand is just that, eyeshadow for makeup purposes~
- As a human she's much taller and lean, almost as though the stocky build from her keaton-self is stretched out.
- Embroiders a lot of her clothing with flower patterns, it's a hobby they shared with their grandmother.
- Goes about their business as a "Hylian" by day and a Keaton by night.

History
"Accept what is, let go of what was, and have faith in what will be."
- Sonia Ricotti.
What's Mostly Known:
A keaton with tails signifying her ascent into early adulthood, arrived alone and cold from the mountains surrounding Inariko. By reasonable deduction, it was assumed she came from dens hidden in similar mountains to the region, traveling to Inariko as it was the closest and familiar. She stayed with an odd Sheikah family, them being the most open and welcoming to outside strangers among most in their community, but brought about hesitation with her pelt soaked by throws of blood from the weary road behind. And even more suspicious was that the keaton wanted to keep the color! They were markings that designed her future and a reminder of what she had to leave behind. Red buds that lingered against a persistent frost, ensuring the keaton survived.
But at what cost?
She remained with the family as long as she could, remembering how to relive for herself again. For a brief moment they found themselves smiling again, the familiar landscape bringing life to their step once again. Even one of the sheikah family’s youngest managed to make her giggle, just for a bit. But that never lasted for long, as overwhelming guilt tugged at her muzzle every time. It drowned out the voices around her, the people in the village became blurs, isolating them all until there was no one left. Just Ayame and the voices of their own thoughts.
How could she remain here, when those they knew dearly and deeply would enjoy these mountains more? The icicles mirrored the eyes of old, the blanket of winter covering over her like their arms and a heavy shroud all the same. The more she remembers them and their wisdom, the more she can’t find herself staying in this village. Even as a respite to recover, her home in the mountains was gone the day she lost them.
And another. And then another.
They were different from the beacons coming from north, where many keatons continued traveling to, reuniting with others from their kin, their packs, their kind. None of which Ayame knew would be waiting for them and yet… These voices, they called from south, far beyond Inariko’s borders, they were familiar. Whispers of the past, perhaps? Or warmth guidance for her future? Either way they were familiar and yet foreign, enough to tug at their heartstrings with no guilt. Only to live, live for tomorrow and the next day and the next.
Beyond the treeline she saw it: Her grandfather’s smile.
Further from the mountain, she heard it: Her grandmother’s song.
She couldn’t stay here. She had to leave.
So in the dead of night with the stars on her back and the moon illuminating her path, Ayame fled once again, this time to Vhintl. And over a year’s time she’s made her home there within the trees. Talking to them fondly and listening to the whispers again and again whenever they tickle her ears, conversing with them like old friends once again. Amongst the foliage and the covers of trees, the keaton finds room to take root, to flourish and grow.
Like the buds found within the snow, now with the threat of frost and winter long behind her, they both began to bloom.

TRIVIA
- DnD Alignment: True Neutral, some days lawful and other days chaotic
- MBTI Personality - INFJ - The Advocate
- Birthdate is February 20th [Noe Rajee 25th] || Pisces
- Pisces Sun, Aquarius Moon, Taurus Rising. They’re a walking contradiction
- Her divination skill relies in reading what's present in nature. Her usual go to is Floromancy, by reading the flora and natural growth of flowers and trees around her, she makes divine predictions and understanding both the past and present and foreseeable future. However she does dabble in astrology and geomancy if the right conduits are available.
- Ayame arrived in Inariko first out of pure coincidence with it being the closest village from her path. After recuperating and wallowing in survivor’s guilt, surrounded by the beautiful mountains and snow, they followed a calling further south to escape within Vhintl’s lush forest
- She likes collecting a lot of shiny stones and click-clacks for a personal collection. She takes care of them just as much as she does with pressed flowers and new seedlings.
- Also loves playing cards, Hanafuda being one of them. Watch out, they’ve got a mean shuffle.
- Along with the gods Hyrule, Ayames clan personally followed teachings from ancient times revered to a god most Keaton-like, which may or may not mirror our world's version of kitsune. In legend, the figure would paint themselves in different colors according to the moon cycles (Harvest Moon, Blue Moon, eclipse, etc)-- for protection, growth and extra clarity. The moon and the paint they donned would become powerful symbols to build moral and confidence in their numbers, even in struggling times. Over time with the slow decrease of keaton magic and gradual rise of the Blood Moon appearing amongst the blight, many of Ayames ancestors began the process of adoring themselves with red dyes over the standard black tips of their ears and tails, even their feet.
- The Clan believed that in upholding the color, they would borrow the Blood Moon's strength to fight back against the evil that rose from the dead with its power. To even the playing field as it were, and even the more cowardly members saw the use in the color to help camouflage in its eerie light.
- They’ve even gone so far as to make their clan tattoos also be in red, so that against all odds, they still share a fraction of that power between them and their brethren, even outside the moon cycles.
- That said, the practice is still maintained by Ayame especially during blood moon nights and after years of continuously using red dye (and in part having suffered through the long blood-stained trail when seeking refuge from the villages), the deeper parts of Ayames natural champagne pigment has taken to a more red staining over time.
- She's grown aware that it might sound like her clan were borderline blight cultists, but they're the furthest thing from. They'll be the first to smack that lesson into someone that "no, we are better than them."
