Kouran | Original Character
PLAYER: Mori
CHARACTER: Kouran
CANON: Original. She's from a setting where a Japanese town happens to have a series of seals keeping horrific monsters from running loose into the world. Said seals also happen to be breaking, because the town is growing into a city. Kouran is a seasonal god (winter and spring) and one of the town's guardian deities, and a
terriblementor to a bunch of kids + one college student who have gained powers and are pretty much the only hope the town has if they don't want to be overrun by monsters. The problem is half of them are kind of asshats.AU NAME: Kouran Yamazaki
AU AGE: 15-16
AU OCCUPATION: Student, part-timer at a florist shop
BLURB: - Born in Japan, has lived most of her life in Kyoto.
- Family owns a huge construction firm and is pretty rich.
- Parents are traditionalists and a little overprotective over her, so she's been raised to be a Good Proper Lady from a young age. Largely home-schooled and taught traditional Japanese arts such as calligraphy, tea ceremony, flower arrangement etc.
- They also have business ties to the yakuza, which has lead to a huge scandal involving fraud and blackmail around 7-9 months or so ago.
- She's been sent to Recolle to live with relatives and lay low until the fallout from above scandal cools off. She's been in Recolle for about 7+ months and lives with Sousuke's family.
- Lived a highly regimented and supervised lifestyle before Recolle, so she's been basking in the relative freedom she has while she's staying with her relatives.
- Polite, cultured, and probably gives off an air of being really high brow and upper class...
- ...But also something of an airhead and frankly just plain eccentric. She's prone to being absent-minded and it's easy to tell she's rather sheltered.
- Doesn't go out of the way to socialise a whole lot, but is generally easy to get along with. Really hard to anger.
- Likes to paint and genuinely enjoys flower arrangement, which is one reason why she's working at the florist shop. Prefers still-life painting and natural subjects.
- Adores cute things. Also finds many creepy things adorable. She enjoys things like ghost stories, occult stuff and morbid imagery, and thinks it's all entertaining in good fun.
- She's probably dabbling in trying to figure out her own interests since this is like, the most freedom she's ever had in her life to try new things. Does not invalidate the above, just that not being chaperoned constantly means she indulges her curiosity way more often, which will most likely get her into trouble.
- Has complicated feelings about her parents and the expectations placed on her, which is to say, she doesn't really hate or resent them, but she is also increasingly unhappy with the railroading and the looming marriage interview that they will probably want for her in the near future.
LOOKING FOR:
- My dream is to have PCs as one or two of her older siblings who may or may not have flipped off the familial obligations and ollied out to do their own thing, if you give me any of them I will actually cry tears of joy,,,
- Friends! Classmates at high school! Please befriend this weirdo girl. People she might have met at the florist shop also count. She hasn't had many friends growing up so it'd be nice for her to actually make some here.
- Other rich kids or associates she could have known from back home or through her family's connections.
- Good influences! Bad influences! She's a sheltered kid so she's kind of impressionable.
- Really I'm game for anything, a lot of background details are flexible to accommodate whatever. My current plan is for her to have a relatively nice and normal life with friendships and growing up before I drop the "btw you're not actually human or very good at being a person, also have fun being removed from your own humanity" stuff on her via regains.

Kanan isn't quite the sort of thing I'm looking for since I'm hoping for fairly independent and/or strong willed siblings (or at least ones who want to do their own thing/become more independent from the family), but also more cute girls to be friend with!!!

Re: Kouran | Original Character
notes:
--Kouran is actually in a position to have heard about the Mibu family--a shadowy family involved in politics and lord-knows-what-else. THey've probably bought flowers from her family before things went to shit.
--I don't think they'd have met much before but controlling family buddies!
--Hikaru will absolutely adopt

but also as I read her things I realized that she and Tsukasa could probably know each other too if you're interested in that!
no subject
baren try to not be too bad of an influence on this child okok
no subject
but also baren actually... wants children to succeed..... he's the type to be like "don't give a fuck about what other people think" but also do his best to give her the tools to be a strong, independent, young lady like his sister
he loves his sister
he thinks everyone should be more like his sister
no subject
so i was looking at your au comment and i can tick a lot of boxes re: what you're looking for in terms of siblings and ive been kinda dyin for someone to pick up her younger sister slot for a while now so!
it depends on whether or not you'd rather stick to what you have family wise but, basically:
aki's parents divorced when she was fairly young, her mother remarried. her new dad had a daughter already who by relation became aki's younger sister; would've been fairly turbulent at first considering aki has a whole mess of issues with her Mom so she kinda started fights with everyone and was really standoffish and bad. also coming off of a younger delinquent streak she had
eventually kind of softened to the fact her new younger sister was a Good Kid and eventually became overprotective and almost a little doting...but everyone else would've just continued to think of her as really cold and distant and hard to deal with, because that's how she treated her schoolmates and people in general
after years of also putting up with her mom's high expectations and coming to terms with the fact she was being sent off to college in tokyo not even really knowing what she was going there to study, she just kinda...up and ran off in the middle of the night. no goodbye letters, no warnings, no nothing. moved to recolle like three years ago
how would you feel about cutting our AUs apart and smashing them together to make this work? i can promise a strong willed and stubborn older sis like you're lookin' for. she's so bad about it it's sometimes to her detriment honestly
the only thing i will say is the way her mom treated aki sometimes when it came to disciplining her it was def abusive in nature (say, locking her under the stairs overnight or giving away her dog after they got into a fight to punish her) but she specifically had an issue with Aki herself, so this isn't something Kouran would've had to deal with, in case that'd turn you off the prospect
no subject
But otherwise Kouran was a Good if also very naive sister and insists Aki is actually a really good person even though he doesn't seem like that much, she swears!
no subject
ill go hit up sosuke's player about it but yeah im really excited for this!! ive been waitin for family cr my whole time in game, esp her sis...she's gonna kill everyone who even looks at her funny (i say this and i realise she probably contributed indirectly to how sheltered kouran is whoops)
no subject
Sis don't do that she wants to make friends too, even if she thinks you're also pretty cool.
no subject
no subject
She's also in the circle of "I won't tell if you don't" with Baren because she opened her mouth and was like "oh you look really different now!" because she's a good dumb child who didn't realise what she was bringing upon herself.
no subject
i guess now she'll just have to kill him oops bye baren

How does Kouran feel about the ocean/diving/the beach because that's Kanan's fave thing.

she's going to be a senior next school year, but depending on what florist shop she works out, they could be coworkers. if not at the same flower shop, then they could know each other via sousuke since chiyo's friends with him!
also, chiyo in this au is more into digitally painting (although she was all water and oil paints in canon, which is something i want chiyo to regain someday), but she can be a friend who encourages and admires kouran's art!
no subject
And thank you for encouraging Kouran since this is probably one of the few things she decided to pick up on her own >|b
