Re: Another RP Idea
Name: Murasame
Age: unknown, but at least 800 years old
Appearance: Murasame is a cat spirit in a physical form. He stands at 3'2" from his feet to the tips of his ears. His fur is similar to that of a tortoise shell cat, it is speckled black, brown and ginger though his stomach and mouth/nose area is white as is his hind legs and the tip of his tail. At night Murasame's eye's glow a brilliant red, this even happens during the day though it is only fully noticeable at night. Murasame wears a pale grey-green kimono and on top of that he wears a black travelling cloak as well as a pair of tatami sandals. With him, Murasame also carries around a human-sized katana, and while its to big for him to wield it doesn't seem to hamper his movements in any way. Murasame also carries around with him a long, thin pipe that he smokes catnip from.
Background: Murasame was the guardian spirit of some little known Japanese family in the Muromachi period, though one night he had been dabbling in a bit too much catnip and bandits broke into the family home. Too drugged up to defend them the family were all slaughtered. Racked with guilt over his inability to do anything Murasame decided to seal himself away and enter an eternal slumber, believing that he didn't deserve to go back to the spirit realm from where he once came from.
He had slept for almost 700 years, during that time his coffin, a cerimonial coffin built for him by the family, was sold and traded off multiple times though the possessors could not open it however hard they tried.
