Name: Kamekichi Gender: Boy Species: Turtle (Modified Breed) Height: 20cm Appearance Soft, short mushroom-cut hair. His turtle shell is heavy compared to his small body. Since the shell is part of his body, he is fine with being touched gently. However, if he is hit or handled roughly, he will wail loudly out of fear and pain. His turtle tail is short and small, slightly thick at the base. Body & Movement Like a normal tiny baby, his body is weak, and because of the weight of his shell, he cannot walk upright on land. On land, he crawls on his belly with his stomach against the floor. He moves slowly, going "plod, plod..." He is energetic, but his physical movements are slow. Because his body is small, he tires easily. If he flips onto his back, he cannot get up on his own. He flails his short limbs desperately trying to flip back, but he needs help. In Water He is much more agile in the water than on land. He is good at swimming. He moves his limbs skillfully to swim smoothly. However, because he has little stamina, he cannot swim for long periods. He prefers depths where he can easily poke his face above the surface. He is not good with deep water. It's not that he can't swim, but he is afraid of being at a depth where it's hard to get his face above the water. When he gets scared, he panics and flails his limbs. Preferred Environment Clean, fresh water. Shallow water. Sunbathing. Warming his shell in the sunlight. Being near his owner. Favorite Foods Shrimp. Sashimi of small fish. Small pieces of fish meat, raw meat. Disliked Foods Onions/Green onions. Avocado. Vegetables in general. Aside from likes and dislikes, he may suddenly refuse to eat when stressed. Personality Energetic. Spacey. Goes at his own pace. Pure. Honest. Friendly. Highly curious. Spoiled/Clingy. Prone to loneliness. Loves his owner. Way of Acting Spoiled He is a very honest, clingy type. He loves being held. He reaches out both arms to demand to be picked up. He sometimes huddles close to his owner. He acts spoiled by pressing his body tight against them. He expresses what he wants without hesitation. When his owner moves away, he gets lonely and follows behind them, plodding along. He chases after them desperately while belly-crawling slowly, and once he catches up, he huddles right at his owner's feet. If he gets tired along the way, he might take a break right where he is. Expression of Emotions He is bad at hiding his feelings and expresses them with his whole body. Happy: Flails limbs, wiggles body, beams with a smile. Wants to be held: Reaches out both arms.
