SPIRIT

Name: Shin’Youshuu

Nickname: N/A

Age: 6

Gender: Female

Race: Human, Ainu

Death: Attacked by a pack of Ezo wolves during Meiji Restoration. The wolves were being hunted to extinction by the Japanese via a bounty system, and had become even more distrusting towards humans as a result. Shin’Youshuu was a mere child wanting to play with the ‘doggies’, however, what had been intended as harmless playing was a seen as an attack. The wolves defended themselves, killing the child.

HICCUP

Name: Toi-Toi

Nickname: N/A

Gender: Female

Race: Hiccup (Butterbur Plant/Ainu Spirit)

Eye Colour: Muted Green

Hair Colour/style: Black, cut to shoulder-length, tight curls

Skin Tone: Pale, with yellow undertones

Build: Slight frame; very, very, very short (I.e. Pauline Musters or Lucia Zarate.) Looks much like a porcelain doll.

Fashion: Doll clothes, usually. She tends to prefer clothes with light, breezy layers and complex patterns. Refuses to show skin beyond her face, neck, and hands, particularly her torso and stomach. While she likes skirts, she will always have on tights or pants on to cover her legs as well.

Likes: Nature, her umbrella, running water, animals (So long as they aren’t much bigger than her), baking

Dislikes: Men, bathing suits, bugs, social situations, technology

Personality: Toi-Toi is, at best, shy; at worst, anti-social. Humans and other Hiccups (Or rather, anything sentient) terrify her. Her first thought is that everyone is judging her: negatively. Be it her height, or if she smells, or if maybe her hair is messy-- The possibilities for her to fret are endless.

However, she is also dreadfully horrified of being alone. Her ideal situation would be nothing better to have one person to spend all of her time with. This, of course, is made difficult by her self-loathing nature, because very few are able to put up with her for longer periods of time.

Two prominent Seasonal attributes:
Spring - “Not Quite Self-Assured”, Servile
Summer - High-Strung, Restless
Fall - Reflective, Evasive
Winter - Withdrawn, Loyal

Three physical attributes and how they relate to the spirit and/or vessel:
Butterbur Umbrella (Vessel)
Small Stature (Vessel)
Lip and arm tattoos (Spirit)

GUARDIAN

Name: Robert Harris

Nickname: Rob, “Mr. Harris”

Age: 47

Gender: Male

Race: Human, Mutt

Eye Colour: Hazel

Hair Colour/Style: Chestnut Brown with grey roots and the “Occasional” (Often) grey hair.

Skin Tone: Pale

Build: Tall and somewhat trim. He used to be more active, however, a little bit of pudge is forming in his older years.

Fashion: While working, casual suits; nothing too uncomfortable. While at home, he prefers sweats and tee-shirts. Out on the go, he’s most likely to wear work clothes, since he’s too lazy to pick out other outfits.

Likes: Order, a sense of control, falling asleep in the sun, watching fishing shows

Dislikes: Stains, sunburns, golf, alcohol

Occupation: Butler

Personality: Mr. Harris has found that growing old has only made him all the more childish. While he genuinely has a serious and professional demeanor, he takes more pleasure in the simple things that he used to scoff at. While once arrogant, he has been humbled by his life experiences.

This is mostly due to his career: He wanted to make something of himself, to get into politics. But in order to do that, he needed schooling. And in order to afford school, he needed a job. Thus started his career as a butler, which, to his dismay, did not earn near as much as he required to go to school full time. He just kept putting school off, until he realized he was thirty years old and still working for the same family.

And so, while dangerously loyal to his “family”, he has a sense of self-deprivation. In order to fulfill himself, what life savings he has saved up are-- still saved. The thought of being old and without money in his bank account was too painful to bear, and Mr. Harris decided to keep a stiff upper lip about his situation.

History: Aforementioned fate with money landed a middle aged Mr. Harris nowhere.

Now forty-seven, he is still with the same woman as when he first entered his line of work. Luckily for him, however, the woman he works for is older than he is, and also going through a type of crisis. Being a fulltime butler, this has allowed Mr. Harris to accompany his employer, Mrs. Miller, on her many vacations, including the islands of Japan. It was there that, while running to the nearest village to get some aspirin, he encountered the butterbur field-- aflame.

The tiny, tiny wailing sound had deterred him from his original quest-- clearly something was in far more pain than Mrs. Miller and her silly joint aches. In fact, it could have been a lot worse-- while looking through the ashes, he almost stepped on the tiniest little girl he had ever seen. She was like a small child’s plaything, though her tiny fingers desperately attempted to cling to a miraculously unburnt leaf.

She was promptly taken back to Mrs. Miller. While completely in love with the dear, she admitted she had no idea what it was.

Thus led to a trip to the village. The villagers simply stared. In his broken Japanese, he asked them: Could they please tell him just what this girl was? They had an answer, even if it wasn’t right.

And so Mr. Harris returned to the hut once more, this time, with a “Koropokkur” in his hands.




GUARDIAN

Name: Arlene Miller

Nickname: Arlene

Age: 86

Gender: Female

Race: Human, Mutt

Eye Colour: Grey-blue

Hair Colour/Style: White-- short and poofed out in order to make her hair look fuller

Skin Tone: Pale with lots of wrinkles and age spots

Build: Shrunken and invalid-- Arlene is confined to a wheelchair

Fashion: Shawls and one piece dresses; she prefers anything that is easy to get on and off, since she has limited mobility.

Likes: Women’s television, pastries, travel

Dislikes: Being old, small places, staying in one place for too long

Occupation: Widow; Employs Robert Harris

Personality: Arlene is the type of woman that would give anything to relive her youth. But she can’t have that, and she knows it. So instead, she works to have as much fun while she still can, even despite her situation. She loves to laugh, and loves to spoil people. Mr. Harris is her closest friend and confidant-- to the extent where she continues to employ him for the sake of his company alone.
