CHARACTER SUMMARY

Kiritsubo is an ancient tanuki living in the modern era, in an alternate version of Earth where the demon world exists alongside and mostly hidden from the world of humans. She is known to spirits as "Kiritsubo the Wandering Tattoo Artist", and her work is considered the absolute best for both beauty and magical strength, which leads her to be in constant demand. Not that she lets demand dictate whether she actually shows up when called upon. She is a whimsical, hedonistic wanderer who travels the world following idle curiosities, new skills to hone, and fleeting pleasures, tattooing and telling fortunes as she pleases along the way and dabbling with spirit and human-kind alike. She appears completely unbound to conventions like loyalty (having been known to tattoo both sides of the conflict currently engulfing the demon world), duty (only appearing when she likes or views it as necessary for her own goals), identity (often using her shapeshifting abilities to appear as wildly different personas), or monogamy (a consummate "carnivore" who freely sates a tanuk's notoriously high libido regardless of relationships between her numerous lovers).

Beneath it all, though, Kiritsubo has been secretly working towards a single goal for the last 500 years: waiting for her former lover, the oni Kiyoami, to manifest in one of his descendants. Though she was devotedly in love with the man, oni are simply not the type, and he ended up beheaded by a powerful exorcist after impregnating said exorcist's wife with a child that killed her being born. Since then, she had been manipulating events behind the scenes and preparing for his arrival, all for the goal of freeing his soul from needing to possess a descendant's body and have him reborn properly as his own man. It doesn't even matter to her if he does not love her... She simply desires to see him, unbound and free, roaming the world again. With her goal now mostly achieved... she is content enough to move on from their world and wander into an entirely new one. Why not? After all, you live a couple hundred years and you start looking forward to something shocking.

OUT OF CHARACTER

▶ BACKTAGGING.
▷ Alright, within reason. If there's a lack of communication about delays in tagging and the thread isn't development-heavy or plot-related I may drop it if it drags on for too long or if tags start coming with large gaps in between. If we're in contact about things, this isn't a problem. (Note: If threads keep getting dropped no communication I will stop pursuing CR.)
▶ THREADJACKING.
▷ Sure!
▶ FOURTHWALLING.
▷ Sure!
▶ OFF-LIMITS.
▷ No particular squicks come to mind off the bat, since I am willing to roll with most things that make IC-sense, but I will tell you if something comes up.
▶ SHIPPING.
▷ Kiritsubo is emotionally devoted to her ex-lover Kiyoami, but as a tanuki she has an insanely high sex drive, and she will be indulging that whenever she sees fit with one-night stands, friends with benefits, and a bevy of casual lovers. She doesn't care about monogamy herself, but if someone she's coming onto begs off because of love she will usually let them go, despite how carnivorous and aggressive she can be about her pursuits. If you would like to opt-out to any degree of interacting with Kiritsubo's sexual appetite, please use THIS OPT-OUT POST.
▶ TAG STYLE.
▷ I do brackets but I don't mind other formats. I tend to tag at least once every few days, so if it has been a week without a response from me then please contact me to ask, because I may have accidentally thought I replied already or un-starred it from my inbox, etc. PLEASE communicate with me if you need to drop a thread or handwave an ending instead of finish it, I would really appreciate it.
▶ OTHER.
▷ ?!?!?

▶ FIGHTING.
▷ Kiritsubo is not someone who seeks out fights, she'd prefer to slip away without things coming to blows. But if need be, she's willing to defend herself and I'm willing to thread it.

▶ DEATH.
▷ 'd like to avoid it this early to her introduction to the game.
