" 'The name of the LORD is a fortified tower; the righteous run to it and are safe.' It's from Proverbs. Remember to go with Christ."
Name: Watanabe Yoshi
Gender: Female
Age: 17
Personality: If there is one thing that is an essential focal point of Watanabe Yoshi it is her devotion. She is incredibly loyal to her Protestant Faith, but she is also incredibly loyal in general. She patronizes the same arcades and shops that have proven themselves to be quality service and will refuse to go to another store unless the ones she went to shut down. If you win her friendship she will remain steadfast to you and probably overlook some bad behaviors, as long as they aren't enough to condemn you to Hell. Yoshi keeps secrets and takes appointments and commitments very seriously. As such it is safe to say that Yoshi is headstrong and fairly passionate in all of her dealings.
Yoshi views herself as a good Christian and as such she acts like a model citizen as much as she can. She has a very calm demeanor that can only get disturbed by either belittling of her faith, or by seeing supposed acts of devilry. When it comes to having her faith belittled or seeing Christian ideology shaken, Yoshi typically responds with very passionate and outraged speeches. If that doesn't solve the situation she is not opposed to flailing around to physically solve the problem. However when it comes to devilry, Yoshi is driven more by fear. She will throw out various protection charms and engage in superstitious rituals in order to supposedly protect herself from it alongside a probable shrieking and crying.
Despite her faith, Watanabe Yoshi is really quite easy to provoke into a fearful state. As such she avoids most things in the Horror Genre, and is not hesitant of using others as a shield behind her own personal luck charms.
History: Watanabe Yoshi has a peculiar bit of history, which is mostly peculiar due to the fact that both of her parents are Christians. Her family comes from the Protestant Faith and they instilled the faith of the church in both her but also in her siblings. As her father was a fisherman there were often periods of times that Yoshi did not see her father. Whenever she actually managed to see him it always seems as he collected some nastier scars upon his person. This in turn drove Yoshi's mother to pray more often in order to make sure her husband would come back safely so she wouldn't become a widow and so her children would remain with a father.
While Yoshi was not allowed anywhere near the docks her father worked she was allowed near various beaches, lakes and other of bodies of water. In fact her father encouraged her enjoyment of the ocean as he felt it was a good and honest life. So Watanabe got involved with swimming. As she got better at it, alongside other water based activities, she began to make friends who she could exchange interests with. One of her newfound friends was an actor who thought that Yoshi could possibly do a decent job at it. Yoshi took to it like a fish to water, and with that she found it to be a good way to help bring others towards the light of Christ. But the most important way came when the Occult Club was shanghaiing people to join in. Watanabe joined the club willingly in order to demonstrate the Awesome Power of the LORD, and keep any of these people from trying to consort with demons.
It is what a good Christian would do.
