Okami

Okami Hamada is reserved, introverted, yet kind, and sometimes maternal and protective. She likes to be alone but also enjoys the company of those she trusts. She loves to sleep, and in nature, that's what she does most. She can survive for long periods of time without sleeping, eating, or drinking water. She's quite quiet, so in conversation, she tends to listen more than speak. She has an extreme fear of heights and can't stand excessive noise, so she doesn't like big cities or noisy environments. She likes to have her belly rubbed or rubbed behind her ears.

Past:

She had a Shiro pack, but after a raid by poachers, she lost her entire family, including siblings, parents, and other loved ones. She was just a cub when this happened; since then, she learned to survive in the wild and to take care of herself. Because of this, she developed a deep distrust of humans and is somewhat afraid of them. Even so, over time, she learned to be "happy" and enjoy silence and solitude, although not completely. She has always felt a natural need for company and longed for it, even if it was extremely necessary for a human.

Appearance: Okami is a female Shiro wolf of the Ikimono species. She is 3 feet tall. Her fur is white and is longer on the chest and nape of the neck. Her hair is short and white. Her eyes are blue. She has red patches of fur behind her eyes and red lines on her sides and down the sides of her thighs. Her claws and nose are black. Her tail is long, fluffy, and white.

It is a contemporary world of the 21st century. The story is set on the Japanese island of Okinawa.In this world, in addition to animals and humans, there are a series of creatures and species called Ikimono, as they were first classified in Japan (creature in Japanese). Ikimono can be any magical, supernatural, mythological, or similar creature. In Japan, there is a species called Shiro (white in Japanese) due to its peculiar color. Shiro are creatures extremely similar to wolves but with special abilities and the ability to speak human languages. Shiro are capable of magical powers such as healing any wound, making plants grow, and controlling the elements of nature (water, fire, earth, and air).The Shiro species consider themselves guardians and protectors of nature. Therefore, the Shiro do not easily trust humans, as they consider most of them a harmful and dangerous "race" for themselves and nature.The Shiro species remains isolated from human civilization and the human world in general, yet they have been classified as a "preserved species" so hunting them is strictly illegal.
