Appearance

[Image: amaterasu-japanese-goddess-of-the-sun.jp...w=640&q=80]

Draped in sunlight and honey, Amaterasu stands with a noble stature and a tilted crown, limbs thin and long, though elegant and precise, as though she's walked these earths many times now.

Her knowledge of previous lives have remained with her all the same, – though recent memories are a bit . . . blurry – so her skills may be better improved than those with no practice at all.

Amaterasu's eyes are that of burnt sand, dark among her paler, golden pelt, which makes her thin, sharp face pop with that extra flare.

Personality

The positives . . . —

A hard-working and generous – to those deserving – person, Amaterasu is a noble woman who believes in honour, accountability, respect of others, and responsibility.

Her main focuses in life is to be productive, and it is quite common to see her getting things done, whether that be hunting to feed herself and her family, patrolling to make sure everyone is doing well, or any other activity that would be beneficial for her group.

Raised as an Empress with power at her finger-tips, Amaterasu has been raised quite spoiled, and she heard to learn from an early age not to deem herself higher-quality than others, which has sprouted a new sense of humility in her.

"Generosity is a gift that should not be taken lightly, as neither is death.
Both are only bestowed if it is deemed necessary;
They are to be treated with delicacy and maturity; with a strong will; with guidance."

Amaterasu is the great and glorious goddess of the sun. An embodiment of the rising sun and Japan itself, she is the queen of the kami and ruler of the universe. The Japanese Imperial Family claims to have descended from her, and this is what gives them the divine right to rule Japan.

She is the center of Shinto, and Japanese spiritual life.

Amaterasu is the Queen of Heaven, the kami, and creation itself. Though she did not create the universe, she is the goddess of creation, a role she inherited from her father, Izanagi, who now defends the world from the land of the dead.

Amaterasu’s primary role is that of the sun goddess. In this position, she not only serves as the literal rising sun that illuminates all things, but also provides nourishment to all living creatures and marks the orderly movement of day into night.

The sun represents order and purity, two of Shinto’s most important concepts. All things in creation are ordered, from Amaterasu down to the denizens of Jigoku and other hells. This order is reflected in Japanese society as well.

— . . . The negatives

Due to her productive personality, Amaterasu often shuns laziness, especially after one's just eaten. It is expected of her family to up-hold their responsibilities before they even think about resting.

Not only that, but she's known to carry larger tasks on her own, often snapping at those who try to help her. Amaterasu is quick to think that those offering their service think she's weak or not fit for the job.

Often, when people believe they are above her, Amaterasu is quick to turn on her "Empress Voice" and get mean. It's a bad habit, and she never apologises... Unless feeding and sorta avoiding you counts as "apologising."

History

レガリア

Born to Izanagi and Izanami, alongside her brothers, – Tsukuyomi, Susanoo, Ebisu, Kagutsuchi, Fujin and Raijin – Amaterasu was the only girl in her litter, and, not only that, she was also the only one with pale, golden fur.
All her brothers sported darker pelts, some black, some blue, some an odd sheen of green?

Being a Goddess, Amaterasu never really . . . died. Instead, she was reborn into countless creatures; Fox, cat, lizard . . . Until, she returned to her throne, a human, alongside her siblings who'd finally caught up with her.

The woman lived – and been raised – as an Empress for many years, her fingertips tingling with power. Though, one night, out of the woodworks came assassins.
Cruel samurai who'd plotted to bring down their Imperial Kingdom, and the Empress with it . . . Alongside her, the woman's brothers and trusted friends fought hard, but sadly, it wasn't enough to ward off the evil men.

Amaterasu died that night, and now, she's been reborn a wolf, spawning in Canis. The lady wonders . . . Did her brothers die that night, too?
