Scribbling down a couple of marks into his pad, Senjin gave the page one last onceover before he proceeded to bang his head into the window pane. The lines were all wonky, as he'd expected from a three month hiatus in drawing. From what he could tell, his drawn human seemed to resemble a tree trunk with all the joints sticking out of the wrong places. 

"Unproportionate!" the boy grumbled to himself as he furrowed his eyebrows. What he would give for all the time he'd wasted during summer back. He figured he'd just have to relearn the basics and sharpen up once more. After all, it was only the second day of school. 'Stressing myself out so early will do me no good', Senjin thought to himself as he walked up to the cafeteria lady with the fancy hairnet. 

"Can I get one cheese bun and a caramel custard please? Oh, and water as well." Senjin blinked as she held her hand out to him. "Wait, so you're saying this stuff isn't free?" she shook her head.

"Alright. That's totally fine! I'll make my own instead..." the disgruntled brunette headed back to his seat next to the window at the far end of the cafeteria, laying his head down on his sketchbook. The hunger made his stomach throb hard, but he tried his best to ignore it. Senjin had brought his own lunch yesterday, and he had no idea some cafeterias worked like Shimebukuro's. At his middle school, they would give the food to the children for free- so long as they paid their tuition, the kids ate to their hearts' content. 

"I-I can feel my heart beat in my stomach..." he murmured into his sleeve.

RAE-AH JEON

GUMIHO

21 | Shrine Priestess (Prior)

 [FORMER APPEARANCE]

Rae-Ah had grown to reach an exceptional 5"7ft. with an ordinary, indistinguishable body that never stood out from the rest. Everything about her was deemed mediocre at best, which was usual for a shrine priestess. She wore her hair in a neat bun or long ponytail almost everyday, fastened tightly with red and white ribbons in order to look presentable to her higher-ups and during important ceremonies.

[CURRENT APPEARANCE - HUMANOID]

As her height remained the same, everything else was a high contrast to her original appearance. Her brunette locks were turned a chalky platinum, to match the fur of her gumiho form. A crimson tattoo resembling the licks of flame rests upon the expanse of her forehead, symbolizing her state of mind, chakra and her ability to transform. Depending on whether she is at her lowest in terms of mental state or simply lacking adequate power at some point in time, her mark glows a threatening vermillion. Her wide eyes are emphasized, as opposed to her earthly form, due to her inflamed irises and feline-esque eyes. Rae also has long, wispy ears and a single tail to match.

[CURRENT APPEARANCE - GUMIHO]

Rae-Ah stands at 8ft in her transformed state. In length, she is 5 meters long, with nine tails sprouting from her rump and are about twice as long as her body. The gumiho's eyes stay true to fire, reflecting every warm color simultaneously. The fur stays a ghastly white, with a wide range of markings and tattoos scattered across her body, some of them vaguely resembling flames.

[HISTORY]

Rae was brought up by a lower-class family in the rural areas of North Korea. Growing up in a poorer condition than the norm, she was taught the gifts of gratitude and benevolence. The young girl led a happy life, with a kind yet fiery soul that burned so bright, it even leaked through her demeanor. Grateful for even the smallest things, ranging from the chirping of the cicadas to gifts from small children at the temple- she never lacked anything in her own terms. 

When she was young, she frequented a small temple near her village, wedged in-between the mountainside and a miniature stream. Her parents made her visit the gods there, to thank them for their provisions and to ask for blessings every now and then. Rae-Ah was young, incompetent and trusting, which were all ideal features a certain travelling preacher had set his eyes on her for. The greedy, lustful temple-owner offered a handsome price to Rae's parents in exchange for her, insisting that this deed was to be done by the will of the gods. By nature, her parents outrightly refused the offer, telling them that if it was in exchange for their daughter, 'the gods' would have told them themselves. They were highly religious, but they were not idiots.

From behind the paper-thin walls, however, an optimistic, yet naive Rae had overheard this transaction. Despite her parents' pleas, the girl had convinced them that if she were to agree, that would mean she would be able to take part in a bigger picture whether they believed it or not. The starry-eyed girl was so forward, spouting stories of success that would soon come to them if she were to go to work full-time at the temple.

They knew the temple the seedy man spoke of was miles and miles away, with such a distance that their budget wouldn't be able to handle a single train ride without crumbling to dust. It was all or nothing, and with pools of tears they came to a decision with the eager daughter.

"Whatever makes you happy, my dear..." her mother said reluctantly in heavy puffs of breath, in between periodic sobs that were soaked up by her husband's collar. With that, Rae-Ah was finally let go. 

The travel took a week for them to reach their destination. The man brought Rae-Ah to the three-story shrine, greeted by a few other servants. She was put off by the lack of care the holy structure was shown, but she brushed aesthetics aside.

 Some grimaced during her introduction, because they knew for sure what was in store for her. During the six years she stayed at his temple, she was frequently brought down to the cellars by the same man who'd whispered in her ears the night she left about the wonders of the gods, and how by doing his deeds, her family would benefit greatly. Although, little did her family know, the same 'holy temple' they had sold their daughter to held more bloodcurdling screams than hospital rooms where newborns lay.

[PERSONALITY]

 Rae-Ah was always the type of person to give more than she got. The girl held a wholesome heart, with enough love to provide her entire village with. Growing up, she never had many friends besides the people she served and those she served with. As a result, the scarce number had led her to hold the very few people she had close to her heart. Rae-Ah never thought for herself, which was what landed her in that hellhole in the first place. To her, there was always something that was worth more than she was, which is both good for other people, yet terrible for herself. She always strives to speak the truth, as honesty is one of the virtues the gods had valued in their time, along with wishing well upon others.

[POWERS]

In her fox form, she possesses the ability to stride across large pacts of land at an extremely fast pace, due to her increased stamina. In this state, dexterity and strength are enhanced through her exceptionally large stature- allowing for decent combat techniques. But when she is transformed, the fox's instinctual carnivorous, predator instinct replaces her human tact, causing her to be blood-thirsty and easily aggravated. Fortunately, this also grants her enhanced smell and hearing, with the limiting range of a good 15 meters or so. All of her tails can be manipulated to act like whips as well.

When she is in her humanoid form, her magical potential is highly increased. This makes up for her lack of speed and strength, balancing out her strengths and weakness. As a gumiho, she embodies the ability to shape-shift into a large, nine-tailed fox. If given enough practice, she is able to contract and increase her claw length, even while in her humanoid state. Fox fires will also surround her, staying passive until an adversary is spotted. These fox-fires are generated after some time and rest, which can make her extremely vulnerable if they're all used up. Additionally, only when her chakra is fully charged, she is able to project minor illusions, targeting anyone she pleases. Of course, this will all only be available for her once she learns how to actually channel that magical power.

◯

[TENDENCIES]

Rae-Ah starts to feel an intense craving for meat of any kind when she is low on energy, however this is only in her gumiho form. When she isn't transformed, almost anything can saturate her hunger. Rae must avoid transforming into a fox when food is scarce lest one would want her to devour her entire team.
