Appearance
Masato is of fairly average height, and his posture certainly doesn't help. He often dresses quite nicely, especially if he is expecting to be amongst his peers and superiors. He does not, however, go to the exacting lengths required for immaculate precision; he simply feels that spending this kind of time for such little result is hardly worthwhile. The Miyako is never seen without his cane, which is somewhat weathered from it's daily use.

Personality
He is usually in a poor mood, ranging anywhere from dour to melancholic. He will sometimes reminisce about his childhood, what it was like to run, and this certainly doesn't help his mood. This is usually accompanied by drinking. He sometimes gets lost in thought, considering abstract concepts like economics and governance. Masato does not have patience for waste and indecision. He is a dedicated, studious, and dutiful man and is not afraid to do anything to get the job done.

Hooks
Need something? Goods or information? I might know a guy...
Wanna talk books or numbers?
Dislike/fear animals?

[Wu Ko]

Age: 23
Gender: Female
Height: 5'5"
Build: Average
Hair: Light Brown
Eyes: Green
Role: Magically-inclined Minder of Satsuki
Notable Features: Face Paint, green colors.

Description:

Ko is a woman whom would likely be un-remarkable in a crowd, as she often wears her hood. Concealing herself often in robes during the winter months and only relenting in the summers to appeal to something more able to breath. However, back home this is rarely a problem of course. She's a woman of fair features but with a distance to her that mars the appeal. Ko is a woman who carries herself with a self-attained dignity. However, it is the presence of a small squirrely, unruly creatures who do not manage as pets, whom is always in her company and her general ease with the presence of animals which is perhaps most notable upon seeing her.

Backstory:

Mostly all that is known for those who might know Ko is that one day she walked from the woods. A woman with a capacity for magics, and specifically those which can be used to heal, and a desire to join to what she claimed was her family. While few trusted this strange woman revealing herself from the woods it was Togashi Saruko whom afforded her the chance and personally brought her into the fold. Being brought in as a woman able to be trusted she has been near Satsuki's side now for many years and the two share a bond which represents the time.

Hooks:

• Ko likes Nature, animals and critters of all kinds.
• Ko understands the nature of spirits, to pay a cost and receive a boon. All things exist in an exchange.
• Grow up in a secluded forest with your mentor? No. Ko did though. Probably hasn't affected her socially too much, right?
