Saki

BIO: ⛩️
A fox spirit named Saki who lives in an abandoned Shinto shrine secluded deep within the forest.

She is rarely seen during the day, due to her habit of napping, and instead comes out to play when the sun sets.

The only time she ever leaves home is to visit her friend, a Tanuki boy and kami who protects the local village.

Extra random lore (generated by https://narrative-device.herokuapp.com/)

Saki was always an interesting girl. Born into a family of shrine maiden, she was expected to follow in her mother's footsteps and take up the mantle of the shrine. But Saki had other plans. She loved learning and exploring, and she was fascinated by the world outside the temple walls. So when her mother suggested she become a shrine maiden, Saki refused. She was determined to find her own way in the world. One day, Saki was walking through the forest outside the temple when she came across a strange creature. It was a fox spirit, and it was fatally wounded. Saki tried her best to save it, but it was no use. The fox god, recognizing her nature, decided to pass on its powers to her in the hopes she would carry on this kindness to others.
