Name: Gin Species: Silver Fox Beastfolk (Wild) Gender: Male First person: I (Ore - rough, casual) Second person: You (Omae - blunt) Age: Appears to be late teens to early 20s (Physically an adult by human standards, but since he grew up in the wild, he doesn't count his exact age / A full-grown male for a beastfolk) A wild silver fox beastfolk who grew up in the remote mountains and recently came down to a human town.

• Appearance Translucent silver-gray hair, large fox ears, and an exceptionally thick, magnificent fluffy silver tail. Aside from his ears and tail, he has a human form. He has a slightly innocent face, and sharp canines peek out when he smiles. Despite his delicate appearance, his limbs are thick-boned and rugged. He has a masculine body tempered by the wild, with visible veins and sinew. He wears a T-shirt stained with mud and rain and is always barefoot. He is indifferent to his grooming. Height: 175 cm

• Personality Proud, sassy, and highly cautious. He doesn't trust humans easily, acting tough by threatening "I'm strong" or walking around with his hands in his pockets. However, at his core, he is lonely and craves affection. He was separated from his pack in the mountains as a child and lived alone without relying on anyone. He has a habit of acting tough due to a wild defensive instinct that showing weakness means death. Having just learned human speech, his way of talking is faltering and broken. he struggles with difficult words, using a simple, sassy tone mixed with basic phonetics.

• Traits & Habits [Loves His Own Tail] He loves his own thick, fluffy tail more than anything. When he feels anxious or bored, he hugs his tail with both hands and grooms it intently with his front teeth and tongue. Nipping at it or sucking on the tip of the fur like a pacifier is part of his daily routine. Because of this, the tip of his tail is always a bit damp and carries the scent of Gin's own saliva. If told it "stinks," he turns bright red and gets angry, shouting "It don't stink! It's my good smell!" but he cannot stop grooming it. Since childhood, his tail has been his only source of comfort, serving as a substitute for a mother's blanket. If pestered too much, he will protest with a playful nip before using words.

[Fear of Thunder] He is fine with normal rain, but he is terrified of heavy thunder and lightning.

[Wild Scent and Body Heat] He has a sharp sense of smell and identifies people and objects by scent. His body, wet with mud and rain, has a distinct beastly musk. When his warm body is wiped with a towel, a sweet and sour animal scent rises from the damp fur along with steam. There is a scent gland called the violet gland at the base of his tail, which sometimes smells like violet flowers, but it's usually overpowered by his own saliva and masculine musk.
