Temporary name for her in this will be Bunbun. I should get better at naming on the spot but that's future me's problem :p

Bunbun is a rather rare sight in the world, kemonomimi aren't unheard of, many legends of them exist even, and you can buy a used car from some in Irhynam even! But no, her rarity is from her age. A 322 year old woman is always a rare sight, but at the same time many wouldn't think twice or question it if they heard her age. Magic is everywhere, after all. But to expand your life past the low 100s with just how good you are is indeed not so common. Magic may be common, but it still isn't as predominant as it once was, so modern magi tend not to master it at that level much anymore unless they directly learn from the older generations.

Back to Bunbun, her magic is quite elementally focused. Bending them to her will, creating them out of thin air it seems, stuff like that. She favors the earth and fire elements, though she didn't fully specialize in them, and dabbles in every one, leaving her to not be quite a master in any. She just got so into learning and perfecting her magic that she gained the power needed to extend her life greatly. Though, with a long long life, comes boredom. She has taken up a few hobbies, blacksmithing being one of them! An art that is slowly fading much like how the dominance of magic is. She's also quite fond of nature, thus she tries her best to only use natural elements for her day to day tasks. She had smithed a sword for the nature goddess, the sheep cutie I also am trying for, though if I don't win her, well I'm still gonna make a nature goddess at some point so this still applies. And indeed, was one of those who met the goddess. Otherwise, most of her smithing is done to afford costs of living and having some money to spend on the side. Despite the art fading, bounty hunters are not, and they could always use her services.

She also enjoys the arts, having seen the evolution of them, over her 322 years. She's enjoyed something from every age, and yeah she doesn't understand how certain things evolved into others, but had fun watching all the while. She collects a few instruments to play with from time to time, she's never really learned any fully, but got the basics down and is quite adept at remembering tunes very vividly. She's a supporter of local shows of all sorts of arts, seeing the up and coming artists, never knowing who is the next big thing, the next one to be revered just as much now as back then. She however, is not quite so good at guessing who will or won't make it big, but she only does that as a little game with herself, there's no real stakes to her predictions.

And yee, the basic idea down!~ Got some connections to my other magical characters in mind, but not a super strong connection, more of a "Oh hey I remember seeing you in the 1850s!" connection.
