Profile


DEM FACTS ON DA GURL:

  • Sakura has gone through a lot of changes since her first design.. She was a really saturated pink before @w@ (yikes!), then I toned it down to a rosey pink, and now.. she's like a soft purple UwU I guess I got super indecisive about her colours! So I'm not really particular on it, so long as she looks cute! 
  • Usually wears her hair up in a ponytail, but occasionally can style it other ways.
  • She's a ringtail lemur but has some untypical kind of design, so I don't mind her been drawn more like a leem or closer to manga kemono style (flatter and more stylised face). It's possible she may become a lemur phaner hybrid in the future.
  • Wears a jade magatama ( 勾玉 ) piece either on her wrist or ankle that's adorned with black beads, given to her by her grandmother as an heirloom. Even if she isn't wearing it, she always keeps it on her person.
  • Sakura is cheerful, enthusiastic, supportive and considerate, kind, excitable and quick to flare ups in expression of her emotions (outbursts etc), strange, socially awkward, thoughtful but sometimes can get stuck in her head, can be oblivious or misread others, hornyAF, mischievous, deflecting, often takes an unconventional approach to things, and a day-dreamer. She really likes parties and get togethers even if she feels awkward and out of place.
  • Sakura and Arvin are roommates in a separate story-line and are close-knit friends! Sakura owns the apartment but Arvin earns his stay by electing himself to do housework and chores, cooking and grocery shopping... She doesn't mind, he kinda enables her laze attitude xD
  • Sakura is fairly clumsy, attempting to aspire for grace or sophistication only to perform atrociously and unexpectedly. She can be a bit of a gremlin.
  • She loves English and American musicians especially, some of her favourites being Depeche Mode, My Chemical Romance, Bring Me the Horizon, Deftones, David Bowie, Britney Spears, The Cure, Gary Numan, Stone Temple Pilots, The Weeknd, and Michael Jackson!
  • Sakura is my femme-sona, and also character I tend to express feelings of misplacement and loneliness with.

Sakura works at the Kissa Café with Anna, Jake, and Chai! They have a great relationship together as workmates and friends there. Sakura lives relatively close to the cafe, her apartment within walking distance. She was hired after meeting up with Salem here for some drinks one time and felt interested in Anna... I mean... -damn-, shes beautiful!... Her long curl blue locks... Mmff~ Sakura was smitten and she applied right then and there before they left! Too her delight, Anna was charmed enough by her eager and energetic personality to call her back for an interview... Yay! That was that, and Sakura's been a faithful barista to the Kissa ever since.

Her favourite things about working for the cafe includes oogling cuties, enjoying free coffee and espresso drinks, looking hot in an apron, and practicing social and English speaking skills.

Sakura's family was originally from Hokkaido, Japan but half of her family decided to stay back to take care of her sickly father in Nagoya. When she was younger, she took care of the family farm and... it sucked! It was boring being stuck at an old dusty farm half the year every year... She was relieved to leave that life behind when she moved over into North America, but it took her a long time to adjust outside some of her Japanese customs and habits. She does occasionally feel homesick, but its like for a place she's never been either, as even when she was living in Japan she felt so alien and singled out of her family and peers. She was always kind of a weird one. Obnoxious and opinionated at times, brash and uncouth... She has embarrassed her mother Akane, on many occasions..

When she was sent back to stay on her grandparents farm in Hokkaido, she was tired of having to do all the labour herself! Sakura put an ad for help wanted. As she was going around places of the nearby village, posting up the ads, she ran into Salem, a foreigner! She was excited to meet a foreigner and promptly requested him to meet at her farm, giving him her ad. Salem, likely not even being able to read the ad and barely looking at it... Might have possibly most definitely thought it was a hook-up as he showed up to her farm with a different idea on his mind... ( ̄◇ ̄;) 

Salem and her did become friends quickly! And he did stay to help her on her farm. However when Salem managed to save enough money to fly to North America, Sakura begged to come with him and eventually convincing him too! YES! Finally, she could leave, and she wouldn't be alone! She flew as soon as she could, leaving only a voicemail and a letter for her parents and grandparents to find... Partially on impulsive desire, and partially out of cabin fever, she thinks sometimes - did she make the right choice?

Being in N.A was a different life to adjust to, but making friends with Salem and the others at the Cafe did wonders to help her open up. Still, Sakura struggles with a sense of belonging, something she shares with Arvin. She often gets stuck feeling like an outsider in groups, and unsure how to fit herself in. Sometimes her sense of humour or expression is off-tone for the room or subject matter which can lead to some troublesome situations...

She strives to achieve some sense of self-achievement and acceptance among her peers, but feeling like a fish out of water all the time makes this a near-constant uphill battle, and Sakura sometimes feels overwhelmed with doubts and self-criticism. She can become very depressed... Even with the friends shes made, she tends to feel lonely and disconnected. She lives alone in her own apartment, and trying to make the best of everyday!「がんばってね, さくらちゃん!」

WIP!

ⅠⅠ. Ithersta's Moon

   Ithersta.. A place of imagination, the afterlife, or some other great mystery? Even more mysterious is the way it connects to the beyond and everything after that... It is what your perception makes of it, and what you decide from there. Reality here is not the known reality of our kind of world... Is it Limbo? Well.. Hard to say, but there's certaintly a bridge here and there; As well as everywhere and it exists within the realms of the Ultra-Reality. This fated moon of the many that orbit Saturn, including Europa, said to be a moon that may present teeming evidence suggesting the beginning of new Reality or 'Life' here - exists only a specific layer of the Ultra-Reality with those inhabitants that we consider higher entities (Angels?) and perhaps even the Devils too.

   On this moon, it directly connects to Crema's lonely moon (Arvina) which is the birth place of a giant that sleeps... Crema does not know this, and continues to live and long for companion and partnership beyond him.. He knows he's not the only one living alone on these moons... But he has no way to travel, or find out what exists outside of them and much less the knowing of Ithersta and the community it holds. Others may travel to him, but Crema is stuck where he is, yet until he meets a hysterical fanatic of magic and space travel - Rook the Magician it would seem.. ! And with that, together they set off for their own adventures.

   Along this all among their travels across the moons, they recover a pod containing a single lone entity in glass.. It seems to be preserved in some fashion... Her name "Sakura" labelled on a neon LCD screen. With further observation into this chamber and its depths... She.. Or he.. It? Is a monster! So it would seem anyways, neither Rook or Crema knowing who or what she truly is. Crema has much enthusiasm in meeting and making more friends; he argues with Rook to awaken her and open the case! Rook thinks this is a dangerous decision, but never the less Crema is overcome with his excitement and impulsion, and he moves forward against the others opinion. Rook is hesitant and on guard for the beast but as Crema pulls her from stasis and back into the current reality, assisting with tearing the wires from her body.. She is not only grateful but practically insane by the excitement and vigour she feels! With breath filling all of her lungs and the incredible feel of her many legs moving and twisting her body out from its prison and grappling the both of them in a tightly twined body hug..! Oh my~

   Sakura's journey begins here... And onward with the two, as Rook continues to explore the mysteries of the known universe and discover whatever it is that is calling him and guiding him through this.. Crema joins not only as an assistant to Rook, but in heart-felt companionship and genuine joy to be among others.. Sakura? Well..! She's just happy to be out of that box! They had asked her, how she even ended up in the glass box, but she simply answered with;

"The people I was with became afraid of me, the more and bigger I grew, so did their fear, and I guess whatever it is they believed I was capable to do... But I wouldn't want to hurt anyone, not intentionally.. But it's true that I am dangerous.. I am venomous, strong, and very sensitive.. But I love life and its surprises, I want to make friends, I love living and learning with those I meet!.. To show my gratitude, I will remain at your sides at the least if you'll allow it!"

   And so, Sakura elected herself as a personal bodyguard to the two... She otherwise appeared very strange to them - half centipede, half human? Or demon? Rook had not known anything like her in his life, nor in any book hes read. The closest he could compare to, was Omukade, but even then her appearance differed from this known beast. Maybe they were related? He certaintly sensed a kind of otherworldly aura about her that suggested a potential connection to the devils and angels he did know about, and she seemed to be of a Japanese origin, with some mixture of Spanish in her language. She also knew English, surprisingly! Rook was initially unsure but quickly became intrigued by her nature and origin. Sakura was.. Well! She just wanted to do stuff, live life and have fun! Did she really need a bigger goal or aspiration than that? Seriously! Whatever was to become in her life, she welcomed it! Yet she held a melancholy in her heart, knowing herself thoroughly. She was lonely too, for different reasons than Crema.. Crema was isolated and bound by the environmental and physical limitations of where he was born and how he lived and survived on his own- But for Sakura it was intuitive to herself.. She knew that she had the potential to kill anyone easily, be it her power or poison. This created a lot of distress as she too desired kinship and closeness. The closer she would feel with anyone, the morethis realization and her feelings caused her to shy away and ultimately driven from what she wished and wanted... She was lonely by her own nature and who she was. She feared herself above all, and even with the assurance, encouragement, and acceptance that Rook and Crema provided; she continued to keep her distance from all and any she cared about...

Trivia & History


  • Created 2018
  • Marmorhaus was my first lemur. I designed him as a fursona but later became just a character. I created Sakura in order to fulfill my initial desire, and also wanted a cute femme leem for something different. I became much more attached to her than Mar!
  • Through playing Second Life, she became a monster centipede I fell in love with... Go figure? Her centipede form is much more androgynous!
