Shika to Okami

Deer and Wolf


This Character Sheet is a WIP

Main Character: Kotaru

Kotaru is my main bby boy. I'm constantly changing him, so all these details are subject to change - although probably not by a whole lot at this point. I've been building Kota for about 2 years now, so he has a mostly solid outline. His storyline is what's really biting me in the ass right now... but we'll get there. He's worth the long drawn-out process.

Kota is a spirit. He's a forest guardian, of a sort - although earth is not his point of origin. Consider it more of a self-appointed role. In fact, Kota is the ethereal son of a celestial dragon (no, not the stereotypical Asian kind. More on her later.), and his mother has existed far longer than memory. He was brought to earth by her, and seemingly abandoned. Still a young spirit, poor Kota is very innocent and naive. He is unfamiliar with the laws of men on this strange planet.
In his attempts to avoid the plague of humanity, Kota fled to the last ancient forests still standing on the war-torn and polluted earth. There he met Sorren, an Earth-based wolf spirit. Sorren's fighting nature has inspired Kota to take a stand, and protect the last bit of celestial light still gleaming in the aging trees from the death and despair humanity is spreading.

Below is an image of Kota, depicted very young. Drawn by yours truly <3
