__________________IN-DEPTH STUFF

Physical Description Looking like a human woman, Akori is slim, curvy, and fair skinned with wide, green eyes. Her hair falls to her elbows, gleams chestnut red, and has a wild, wavy curl to it. It's common to see braids, beads, feathers, and shells amongst the forest of curls, little gleams of colour and adornment. Akori always seems to be cheerful and smiling, and she moves with a bouncy, enthusiastic grace.
(She's also cheating - she's a shapeshifter, so don't feel bad if you see her inhale an entire cake and wonder where it's going)

Akori likes to wear flowing clothing, with draping sleeves and lots, and lots of pockets. She is always seen wearing a necklace - an acorn, held in place about her throat by delicate, twisting vines. There is also, usually, an instrument of some kind on her person.

Of course, being a kitsune, Akori has another form - her actual form, truth be told. A red fox, with the same vivid green eyes, and four sinuous, brushy tails. A little larger than a regular fox, Akori can, if need be, hide three of her tails, and appear to be a mundane beast. 

While channelling her magic, lightning will spark and flicker across her fur or skin, and her eyes take on a electric gleam.

Personality Cheerful, bubbly, and energetic, Akori seems to live life just to have fun. She never seems to take anything seriously, and with this, also seems to have no concept of fear or trepidation. Whether or not this is foolishness or confidence is, amongst some of her friends, a question yet to be answered. On the surface, Akori is the epitome of a bard - quick-witted, flirty, and always ready with a joke, story, or song.

Below the surface, however, Akori is lonely and somewhat insecure. She's been rejected before because of what she is - a kitsune. People distrust her simply because of her shapeshifting and non-human nature, and she's had relationships turn sour once the other party discovered her true nature. It has ended up with Akori leery of sharing her true emotions or thoughts on a matter, and instead covering with a joke or deflective comment. Since meeting Tonoli, however, she has improved massively. No longer so lonely, or afraid of what others may think - her Magpie will always accept and understand her.

Magic/Abilities
Shapeshifting Akori can shift between a few forms - a human, her four-tailed fox form, a mundane fox form, and a hybrid four-tails-human form. The latter is the same as her human form, but with her four tails evident at the base of her spine. Fox ears appear atop her head, and her feet are replaced with fox paws.

Lighting Magic Akori can throw lightning bolts, or zap someone with static electricity. She can be a terrifying storm-mage, or the equivalent of scuffing your feet on carpet and making your hair stick on end. Akori recharges her store of power through a form of energy vampirism - but don't worry, it doesn't harm the 'donor'. Ako skim feeds off of the collective energy of a room, preferring the rioting emotions of an inn's common room or pub. Her work as a bard, then, plays double purpose, as she can inspire feelings, and 'nibble' at the result. Never so much as to take the emotion away, but enough to keep her topped off.

Illusions Minor illusions, like a hole in the ground where once there was solid dirt. Any concentrated effort can dispel the illusions. Akori isn't anywhere close to a master of illusion, preferring her own agility and speed to evade danger

Kitsune's Ball A small, marble sized ball that looks to be made of a smooth, glassy material. Sometimes, a flare of electric blue will swirl through the roiling greys and whites of an almost cloud like setting. This ball contains Akori's soul, her anchor, to this world. If it were taken by someone with ill intent, they could command the kitsune to do whatever they desired. If the ball were destroyed, Akori would perish.

It is currently in the possession of Tonoli.

Relationships Soul-Bound to the wood nymph, Tonoli. She is also madly, deeply, devoted to him, and he to her.
