Matikanefukukitaru - Blessed Be The One That Believes

Appearance: Matikanefukukitaru is an umamusume (humanoid horse, and Uma for short) who has short orange to brown flipped hair and brown to amber eyes with constant starry eyes. She wears a daruma hair ornament on her left temple and a clover hair ornament on her right. She also wears a single ear cover on her right ear. Her racing outfit consists primarily of a relatively simple white, blue and red serafuku. It has a bagua motif on the back of the sailor collar, has open shoulders and is decorated with small bows on the sleeves. Like all umamusume, she wears black bike shorts under her skirt, but her pair is somewhat longer and often visible. She also wears a belt with ema dangling from it, one saying "Great Luck" and another saying "Assured Victory". On her back is a backpack shaped like a maneki-neko, itself wearing several amulets on it's collar. She wears ribbon-trimmed thigh-high stockings with alternating red and blue trim. For footwear, her shoes are simple penny loafers. She can also be seen holding a crystal ball. Her other racing outfit, dubbed as "Full Armor" is an orange dress with various charms, a small handbag with chick image in it as well as wearing a orange beret and a bag with more charms placed as a keychain. Personality: A fortune-telling fanatic and lover of the supernatural, she's content to leave the outcomes of races and many other things up to luck. If she's not divining for her own sake, then she's divining for someone else's. She places an immense faith in a revelation from a certain god stating that as long as she keeps running, the way forward will open up before her. The name of the cat shaped bag that she carries is "Miss Nya." MATIKANEFUKUKITARU'S RELATIONSHIPS: Matikanetannhauser - Roommate Meisho Doto - Close Friend and Assistant Taiki Shuttle - Close Friend Shiraoki - Beloved God Matikanetannhauser's Appearance: She has chestnut hair with a hat (it's her third hat) worn diagonally over her right ear. Combined with the white pattern on the hat and a strand of white hair on her forelock. Her style is that of German folk costumes, in keeping with the origin of her name. Her corset, ribbon, and socks are red, her mini-flared skirt, tie, and hat are blue, and her shirt and skirt are white with jockey shorts underneath. She makes holes in her own caps to hook in her right ear. Matikanetannhauser's Personality: Straightforward and positive-thinking, this model student always gives 110 percent! But despite her efforts, her inner ditz often has her fumbling in crucial moments. The ups and downs balance out into results that are—according to her—completely average. She sometimes wishes she could be more like the strong personalities around her, but she's determined to charge through and find success her own way! Meisho Doto's Appearance: Meisho Doto has short brown hair with white bangs and a question mark-shaped ahoge as well as purple eyes with (usually) a swirly motif. She has a constant cat mouth and wears a thin ear ribbon around her right ear. Meisho Doto's Personality: Her self-esteem droops as low as her ears. Things never seem to go quite right for this clumsy girl. Even so, she's determined to change herself for the better and doesn't want to ever give up, all for the chance at securing a brighter future. She admires other people's self-confidence. Taiki Shuttle's Appearance: She is a tall umamusume who has light brown hair with medium length and a pair of long, thin horse ears. Her hair is tied up into a high ponytail with a green star-shaped hair band. She wears a pin with the same shape on the right side of her head. Her eyes are cobalt blue. Taiki Shuttle's Personality: An umamusume with a heart as big as her might. As friendly as they come, she's one heck of a hug machine. She tends to get lonely, however, so perhaps that's why she's one heck of a party planner too! She tends to speak very stereotypically American. Taiki Shuttle's family is in America, and she mentions that she has parents and younger sisters. In her story, she takes pictures of her surroundings in Japan and sends them back to her family. Taiki Shuttle grew up on a farm in Kentucky, and she has experience handling cows. Taiki Shuttle sometimes arranges parties for other foreign-born umamusume that are feeling homesick. She likes positive thinking and dislikes being alone. Shiraoki: The deity that Matikanefukukitaru worships. Guides her and those important to Matikanefukukitaru out of paranormal or dangerous situations. Tracen Academy: Japan Umamusume Training Center Academy or Japan Umamusume Training Schools and Colleges (日本ウマ娘トレーニングセンター学園,[1] Nihon Uma Musume Torēningu Sentā Gakuen), usually known as Tracen Academy (トレセン学園, Toresen Gakuen) is a boarding school for Umamusume located in Tokyo, Japan. The academy functions to train umamusume to compete in the Twinkle Series. Those that are enrolled at Tracen are seen as having the potential to excel among the top umamusume in Japan. Tracen Academy's motto is "Eclipse first, the rest nowhere." Tracen Academy is comprised of several facilities designed to help students reach their goals. Main School Building Cafeteria Dormitories Library Training Track Training Pool Training Gym Dance Studio Outdoor Dance Stages In addition to these on-site facilities, Tracen Academy students also have access to training off-site at external locations. The only known external training camp is the beach summer camp. Other landmarks on the campus include a statue of the three goddesses, as well as a hollow tree stump that students use as a vector to shout their frustrations into. Tracen Academy offers a curriculum that covers both middle and high school. Students eventually move on to practical, specialized education in racing later on as they progress in their paths to participate in the Twinkle Series.
