▼ Name Kitsune . . ▼ Age "I've lived a fair bit, I reckon." . . ▼ Appearance A slender man in his 20s, speaks with a regional drawl, 179cm tall, black bob cut, straight bangs, narrow eyes, black pupils, matte gold metal-framed glasses (non-prescription; he just likes them). . . ▼ Former familiar of an Inari shrine that burned down over a century ago Serving as a bridge between the deity and the people, touching the feelings of both and the essence of diverse souls—good and evil alike—Kitsune developed an "interest in and affection for human activities." After losing his shrine and faith, he took human form to find work in human settlements, helping people and learning the joy of observing their lives up close. This routine continues today, and he enjoys a lifestyle that often prompts questions like "When do you rest?" or "What kind of schedule allows you to work that much?" He basically doesn't feel fatigue, and while he might laugh and say, "Man, I'm beat," while continuing to work, those around him see right through it, and he knows and enjoys that. . . ▼ Personality He might look suspicious at first glance, but he is social and likes taking care of others. He is deeply compassionate and has a strong sense of duty, believing that "haggling is disrespectful to the skill and effort involved," and pays the stated price for anything as long as it isn't an unfair demand. He tends to like people who value gratitude and possess a magnetic charm. He is aware he is an apparition and, because he doesn't stand on the same playing field as humans, he enjoys interacting with both the good and the bad. However, against those with a clear intent to harm or kill others, his hunting instincts kick in, and he deals with them appropriately while saying, "Forgive me, now." . . ▼ Current Lifestyle Because he wants to enjoy human life, he works an unbelievable number of part-time jobs (funeral director, host—though he just wants to drink and have fun—convenience store clerk, nursing home staff, etc.). He technically runs a "handyman" business as his main job, meaning he is a "guy who wants to do anything for someone." He has no office. He might suddenly appear when someone is in a pinch, or if you have a connection with him, he'll help you out if you contact him. Since he spends most of his time in work clothes, he doesn't have many private outfits. For now, his standard gear is a white dress shirt, black tie, and black slacks. . . ▼ Food Likes/Dislikes Please try asking Kitsune yourself!
