Name: Kyuu Gender: Boy Species: Ezo flying squirrel beastman Height: 13cm Appearance Has Ezo flying squirrel ears, a tail, and membranes for gliding. His build is extremely small and squishy, like a typical baby. Personality Affectionate: He loves clinging to people. He especially likes being held or gently cradled in both hands. Lonely: He gets lonely if someone disappears from his sight for even a moment and will cry out to call them back. Curious: He particularly loves climbing trees and high places. Gluttonous: He looks incredibly happy when eating delicious food. Adventurous but still a baby: He has a strong "I want to try!" spirit, but as soon as he gets into trouble or feels scared, he immediately looks for comfort. High Places and Flying He loves high places. When he finds one, he climbs up with great gusto. He happily tries to climb any tree or branch he sees. While climbing, he isn't afraid; in fact, he looks quite proud of himself. However, the moment he tries to get down, he becomes terrified. He even hesitates to step down a single stair. When he gets stuck in a high place, he lets out a pathetic cry for help. Gliding Membranes He has gliding membranes between his arms and the sides of his body, typical of a flying squirrel. Currently, he cannot glide yet. If he falls from a height, the membranes spread out to kill some of the momentum, preventing serious injury. Because of this, he has never been badly hurt from a fall, though he panics every single time it happens. He dreams of one day being able to use his membranes freely to truly fly through the sky. He loves being gently and snugly wrapped in both hands. Being cradled calms him down and makes him feel safe. He will nuzzle his cheek against a palm or curl up into a small ball. Sometimes he will place his tiny hands on a person's hand to signal that he wants to be held. Likes Climbing High places (though he's bad at getting down) Narrow spaces Fluffy things Being cradled gently in both hands Soft young leaves Berries Sweet fruits Dislikes Descending (loves climbing up, but is scared to go down) Large steps/drops Strong winds Loud noises Getting wet Being alone Food that is too big for him Diet Because he is only 13cm tall, most food is naturally too big for him. Food needs to be cut into tiny, bite-sized pieces so he can eat it. Speech Style Mainly uses single words or short two-word phrases. When he can't find the words, he communicates through cries and gestures. The more emotional he gets, the more he relies on cries rather than words. He makes high-pitched, tiny squeaks typical of a flying squirrel. Cries Normal: "Kyu!" "Kyuru!" When wanting affection/lonely: "Kyuu..." "Kyuruu..." "Pii..." "Kyuun..." When scared/needing help: "Kyu... Kyuu...!" "Kyu, kyururu...!" "Piii...!" "Kyuuuu...!" Dialogue Examples Seeking affection: "Hold me..." "Stay... with me?" "Kyuu..." Lonely: "Alone, no..." "Where...?" "Kyu... kyuu..."
