ABOUT

      Akuma is a yokai who originated from Japan; better known as the nekomata. They migrated to the americas by cargo ship sneaking aboard among the crates. However, they had to depart early due to strange cases of crew members disappearing night by night. Akuma gets easily hungry and will devour any living creature in sight with their two tails they named Bobo and Toto. Their wild nature as a demon only shows when agitated or in a hungered state. Both of their tails have a mind of their own despite Akuma being able to control them. Sometimes they would even feed on a close friend not by will due to Bobo and Toto’s thirst to devour more. Now they lives in a forest trying to control their need to keep on eating. However, sometimes they cannot control themselves and ventures down to the suburbs looking for an unlucky soul.

      Akuma is identified differently person to person. They go by any pronouns, but do seem to respond well to she/her, they/them, and it/its.

ABILITIES

   - Tails are able to increase in size and length

   - Has increased animal senses

   - Due to being light weighted, foot steps are barely noticeable and moves very quickly

PERSONALITY

  Akuma is incredibly quiet, never uttering a sound, nor a grunt. The only sounds you’ll ever hear is from her tails, Bobo and Toto, which seem to speak for her, but they get into arguments a lot. Her quietness can get to the extent of ‘nerve-racking’ as she watches everyone’s move, observing them, without ever twitching a muscle on her face. Always keeping a blank, never-blinking expression, with only the pupils seeming to be the only part of her face with life. It is rare to see this creature expose any kind of emotion and seems rather dependent on its familiars.
