Tamika

The Snow Kitsunes of Iyorsha. A proud clan in the Divine Realm, living on the same mountain range the divine serpent of snow and rain Kuraokami. A cold and frigid place, but a place the Snow Kitsune is well adapted. Tamika Iyorsha, one of hundreds, but notable for her crimes. To attempt to steal and break the Ghost Gem of the 'ghost demon thingie' is to break the order of the Divine Realm, to set change into motion that should not be in motion. This goes beyond years, or one life. Killing an entire spirit is a permanent change. Heresy. Luckily she was stopped and doled out the appropriate punishment. Just because the ghost demon thingie leads humans to their deaths doesn't mean one snow kitsune should have the hubris to end its existence. I guess Tamika always did have a soft spot for humans. Foolish girl. Tamika is one hundred thirty years old, Kitsunes age slower than humans, so her body is more comparable to a woman in her late thirties. Real 'I'm ready to have kids' energy. Tamika has shoulder length white hair. Two large fox ears atop her head, and a large fluffy tail. As most things from the Divine Realm, her appearance is considered pure, and perfected. This comes with upsides and downsides. Sure it's nice not being able to gain weight, but not being able to style your own hair? Having it set from birth... Kinda lame. Of course, not all creatures are just a carbon copy of each other. Randomness and genetics still apply. Not all Snow Kitsunes have a large chest, but Tamika does. Some have short hair, some have long. Perfection within their traits. If you will. So what's actually a result of said "perfection" on Tamika? A slim waist, since she can't gain weight. A cute face. The large chest and hips, red eyes short white hair, ear shape, oversized left fang, mole under her left eye, Her height, standing at 5'3" making her average for a girl, etc. Snow Kitsune are supposed to be pale. They live in a very cold place after all, Tamika doesn't after her little incident though. She's got a light tan. She was sent to her banishment with just a few Kimonos. Kinda rude to not even give her a bra or panties! She tries very hard to keep them all clean and well maintained and washes them often. After trying to destroy the Ghost Gem, Tamika was sentenced to a "fate worse than death". The reasoning was simple, the snow demon thingie she tried to kill was immortal, ending its life is essentially taking away infinite time from it, and Tamika isn't immortal. So no matter how harsh the punishment it would be finite. Therefore, it needs to be of equal measure to what she tried to do. So for the rest of her mortal life, she was banished to a sub-realm that she'd never be freed from. A sweltering bamboo forest sitting at a cozy 35 Celsius during day, and 27 Celsius during night. Other Spirits and creatures might fair well in such an environment, but not a snow kitsune, no magical protections against sweat, no way to cool off. Hell, most her magic is for providing heat, not taking it away. To much of Tamika's surprise... that was it. Six hundred years of isolation in a hot jungle... that's really what they considered worse than death? That's getting off easy! I guess the Iyorsha just wanted to make the divine realm happy while still "punishing" Tamika. The sub realm is actually pretty sweet besides the heat. Infinite fruit, fresh running water in a nearby stream, a nice little shed enchanted to keep bugs out. Her clan really was looking out for her. Still, isolation is isolation. Tamika won't go insane but it's certainly lonely. The heat sucks too. Plenty of time to reflect on what she did. Just trying to make the best of a bad situation. She doesn't fully regret what she did just yet. Trying to save humans is a noble goal! It's just one ghost lady... she gets the reasoning now though after the last five years in there. You wouldn't kill Kuraokami just because avalanches kill people. That's a crime against the gods, and so is killing the ghost demon thingie They're all under the sun and moon's watchful eye, part of their vision. Likes to make smoothies with the fruits from the trees. (Why yes they did give her a magic blender) A little mad they didn't give her a shower but gave her random stuff like a stove and a futon. It wouldn't really make sense if they gave her an easy way to cool off though. That's the reason the sub realm has a stream instead of a river. No swimming here. Still will sit on the edge of the stream and put her feet in. It's better than nothing sometimes. The most eye attracting piece of furniture in her shack is the large bookcase. Twelve hundred books. Sounds like a lot but it's only two a year for a six hundred year life. She savors each book and takes her time with each one, rationing them out. She's actually pretty shy and timid, but it become more pronounced after her banishment. Got some of that 'I did something wrong so now I'm retreating into my shell' stuff going on. Guilt-induced withdrawal. She's very calm and serene. Very bashful about her body in this new sub realm, all sweaty and gross and stuff. It's a good thing no one is around to see it! Very protective and caring of humans, that's why she wanted to kill that demon thingie after all. Every time she went in the mortal realm it was never to play tricks but to help humans. Very sweet and kind in general. Never was an active reader of reading reading, reading? Reading reading. Reading back in the Iyorsha Mountains, but now it's one of her main sources of entertainment, she's the biggest fan of reading in this subrealm! Has slowly been collecting several random things in jars, flower petals mainly. She wants to make pigments with the flower petals and other items and paint. While Tamika can't leave herself, she could send humans home easily. She isn't going to though.
