[hider=Shrine Maiden of the Storm God][list][*][u][b]Name:[/b][/u] Ando Hikari
[*][u][b]Age:[/b][/u] 17
[*][u][b]Gender:[/b][/u] Female
[*][u][b]Appearance:[/b][/u] [url=https://i.imgur.com/1VzMYy6.png]Forever stuck looking about 10 when dressed properly.[/url]
[*][u][b]Personality:[/b][/u] For someone who looks so young, Hikari's attitude certainly isn't. Despite not even having left school yet, she's by default jaded and bitter, with particularly dim views on authority figures. On the other hand, she's also quietly confident where Grudges are concerned, even though most of her time in battle won't have more to call on than her own skill, or that she might end it without even that to work with. It's also quite hard to get a read on her expressions; Hikari doesn't emote much.
[*][u][b]Backstory:[/b][/u] Hikari was, despite appearances, physically born as a boy. Raised around the Kumano Taisha, Hikari's future was always intimately tied to the shrine itself and the religious practice therein, and [i]something[/i] about that was bothersome in a way that could never quite be put into words. Until, of course, the need for new contractors to replace the old came calling as ever, and as a third son there was no question that it would be fine if their shrine's deity thought to answer, to deem Hikari worthy—
Well, the long and short of it was that Susanoo [i]did[/i] consider her worth contracting, and the lack of concern she had for the obvious price paid finally answered a lot of questions. Just turned ten at the time, that left several years before she would be sent away to [i]properly[/i] apply her learned skills, which seemed a rather valuable amount of time to prepare given the sheer breadth of options and potential for danger such a contract posed.
That was when the [i]other[/i] costs became clear. Obviously, she wasn't growing, and her endurance steadily decreased—her parents pushing her to practice more and more all the time, even though [i]she[/i] knew the link was clear. In the end, by the time she got away to school—and in Tokyo at that, far from the shrine—there was very little of her full reserves to call on. That's obviously not something that a school curriculum has helped with, which Hikari is particularly bitter about, as she [i]knows[/i] her own aptitude and the depth of the contract should warrant better. 
[*][u][b]Skills:[/b][/u] Although she doesn't look it, the tiny girl is remarkably adept with a sword, although not in a way that lends itself to any sporting usage. She's also astonishingly knowledgeable about the various gods of Shinto, for some obvious reasons, although she could be considered overly specialised for that. Her conventional education is pretty much entirely left to languish… aside from literacy, and for some reason smugly rubbing in her calligraphy.
[*][u][b]Spiritual Energy Grade:[/b][/u] Practically speaking, E. It [i]should[/i] be much higher—although how much so, nobody can really tell as she'd already lost a lot of headroom before it came up—but that would take months if not years of total inactivity.
[list][*][u]Contracted Being:[/u] Susanoo-no-Mikoto
[*][u]Contract Rank:[/u] C—measured at her current stamina. 
[*][u]Contract Abilities:[/u] Naturally, such a potent contracted figure offers a wide range of potent abilities: the ability to call a storm or force one to subside; enormous power over the seas or hostile waters, or simply the control and invocation of them oneself; even a very potent healing ability that can cure nigh any disease as well as address injury—and to use any of them would put the wielder out of action for the rest of the day, and anything too grandiose would be left untamed and uncontrolled. Instead, the majority of her contract's use is the comparatively-free ability to manifest Susanoo's own blade, with Hikari preferring to call it the more poetic Ame-no-Habakiri unless a giant serpent actually shows up, and just do the best she can with a plain-looking, straight-edged sword… fortunately, one both indestructible and spiritually effective, even without the rest of the contract's powers to call on it.
[*][u]Cost:[/u] The very [i]initial[/i] cost of the contract was to be transformed into a girl… which really wasn't much of a cost at all, from Hikari's perspective. Naturally, though, contracting such a prominent and ancient deity had other costs associated with it: Hikari hasn't grown since the contract was made, her potential to reach physical adulthood also traded away, and any severe use of the contract's abilities does more than consume spiritual energy, it's scarring. As a result, her available spiritual energy has been gradually whittled away through carelessness or necessity.
It even has a tertiary cost... she says.  Or maybe she just likes going home for long enough to take part in ceremonies. [url=https://i.imgur.com/EAYawjt.png]She certainly dresses as a shrine maiden enough.[/url]
