Amaterasu Okami (Ami) - Capcom

General Summary: Amaterasu is the protagonist in the action-adventure game Ōkami, the first installment in the Ōkami series. Her heavenly weapon, which spins on her back, is called Divine Retribution.

Her heavenly weapon, which spins on her back, is called Divine Retribution. In the game, Amaterasu takes the shape of a white wolf with crimson markings across her body, a tail shaped like a calligraphy brush (which is how the Celestial Brush is used) and a Divine Instrument floating above her back.

Only particular beings, such as Issun, all other Gods and spirits, and presumably most animals and demons can see her true form. Also, humans with a strong belief in the gods can see her markings and instrument. When Amaterasu's ink pots are empty, she will temporarily revert to a plain white wolf. This is how most people see Amaterasu.

Abilities: Amaterasu can swim but only for a short amount of time. Amaterasu's original ability, Sunrise brings out the sun when a circle is drawn in the sky, changing night into day. The Celestial Brush is a tool used as a weapon or puzzle solver by Amaterasu.

Personality: Amaterasu is known for being quiet, mature, kind, and gentle always aiding those in need, but also unafraid to show her opinion. She is also very intelligent, too. Amaterasu is apparently offended quite easily, shown when Issun says that "Ammy gets kinda sensitive about her flaws!". She also has a low attention span, which results in her falling asleep if someone explains something for too long or if she already knows what is being explained.

Other facts: In the mythology she represents order, the regular cycle of life. Amaterasu is also portrayed as having a temper. When her brother trashes her fields & pollutes her sacred temple, she throws an epic pout & retreats into a cave, bringing the light of the sun in with her, leaving the whole world in perpetual darkness.

Amaterasu at one point, due to undisclosed reasons, decided to ditch her wolf form and she became more anthropomorphic.
