Description
Name: Hana Ichiko or Ichi-chan
Birthday: 5/15
Species: Fennec Fox (2.5 ft tall)
Catchphrase: "Ichiban " (means "number one")
Quote: "Let me help."
Outfit ref: sta.sh/0p7hoj9wumr

Character Type(s): Normal, Uchi

Personality: A shy but brave girl, for the most part. Kind, worrywart, sisterly (will try to protect any and all those smaller than her since its so rare to find someone actually shorter than herself + she finds them precious), quirky, ditsy, very shy with new people but able to warm up to them quickly if the right person or if they bring up one of her passions, she can become excited pretty fast in the case you bring up an interest of her's. Has a heart of gold and always trying to offer her help. Can be very clumsy, both in her speech and actions. Loves her granddad even though he tends to be overbearing and rather strict. She has a good heart though she can be pretty stubborn, especially when people are stubborn to receive her help when they really need it. Finds bugs and wildlife in general fascinating, as well as modern dance. Although she enjoys her job as a young priestess, she is curious and wants to learn more about what is outside the shrine. Shes a bit of a romantic, longing to find her very own "prince charming", though, she can tend to get a bit frazzled when confronted by attractive young men of her age-group. Has a young heart. Very easy to make laugh; very giggly. Probably one of the most bubbly girls you will meet. She is pretty childish and a truly hopeless romantic, always reading romances and daydreaming of finding that true love, though, when she actually gets a crush, she puts up all her defenses and will sometimes even be dishonest about her reason behind gifts for them or why she wants to spend time with them as to protect herself since, because of how she was raised, she is paranoid and afraid of getting hurt. She is the type to get blind with love when falling into it if shes not careful!

Background: Hana is the granddaughter of a Shinshoku, better known as a Shinto Priest, who has always been very protective of her, often sheltering her from the outside world in fears it might "corrupt" her. As a Miko, she grew up learning the Kagura dance, along with other ceremonial dances, and has become very skilled at dance, combined with the more modern dance she studies with her free time. She has always been known to be a simple and innocent girl; Atleast that is how she has always been seen by her elders. Very respectful and kind, never talking back to her father or her elders, and always there to help when needed, even if not asked or wanted; no matter how hard-headed someone is, if it is evident they need assistance, she will go above and beyond to help them. Because of how she was raised, she doesn't know much about the world outside the shrine. Making her rather curious to learn more about it now that she has matured. He grandfather recognized this and decided to allow her to move to a neighboring town on her own. Wanting her to see how 'cruel' the outside world could truly be on her own. He honestly doesn't believe she'll even last a week out on her own since shes such a reserved girl.
