Character Name: Nao Mizushita
Canon: Original
Character Age: 18

General Info:

Jorogumo/SPIDER-themed/youkai related, orphaned, allegedly deceased mafia princess in denial of her heritage and original identity who lives 'free' in Tokyo under another ID (see: Nao Mizushita) as a prolific if very much delinquent hacker (see: Pink Spider) and also information broker who totally isn't increasingly quickly scratching an itch to look into the murders of that person's (see: her OG identity) immediate family 'cause stuff don't add up! Orphaned at 9, on her own since 12, she's impacted others' stories in a number of roles and ways as she rides out her "free" days period, a little before the end of which she was pulled into Somnius.

Nao presents as a freewheeling, quirky, audacious youth sometimes given to Big Energy with a keen pair of eyes, a curious, inquiring lilt, and the assertiveness to pursue whatever her goal. She's a resourceful, creative individual, a thinker for sure, at times effervescent, and... a bit odd, a mischievous gremlin who loves getting a reaction out of people, playing, and having fun, which may not match what most people think of as fun because she's an eccentric and a huge nerd. There are hints that she was, at one time, a bit spoiled if you squint. Maybe a little selfish, a little bully ("carry me"), a little callous at times. She's a closed-book mess, secretive, controlling of what information she reveals about herself and to whom and when, deliberate a good 98.5% of the time --

Look, just tag me and come on this wild ride with me. I am cooking so much all the time. Let me feed you. PERMISSIONS and WARNINGS, check 'em! PLEASE fill out her SPECIAL PERMISSIONS if you plan on your character interacting with her!

Desired CR:

I'm open to all types of CR: friends (please be aware she takes friendship very seriously), found family, frienemies, rivals, enemies, partners in crime, etc. I'm always up for new CR and deepening/working on current CR! I'd love for her to meet people who have different than average normie perspectives about "monsters" and the supernatural? Y'all, it's late.

Monthly Plans: Nao @ the TDM | Speed Dating TL @ Club Quartz | Tagging Around on Sleepr

As of the 5th, Nao owns a Japanese-style farm located outside of and close to Stellari! She's living between it and her cottage in Somnius; she heavily favors the farm rn bc there's a lot to do getting it established and it's Spring/prime planting season. She's open to help and advice re: farming she's a city girl and will at some point let peeps know about the farm's community garden being available for use. She also got her personal laptop, so rickrolling, music, memes, and gifs, and education re: these Earth things are possible and imminent. Furry House has already been served the first rickroll.

Last month @ the Royal Forum, Nao asked Seravo a question. Around the end of this month, she'll be making a network post relevant to Dreamers who (1) are into the game plot/lore/etc., and (2) would like to retain their memories, control when they go home, stay and live here instead of going home, and/or maybe even go to someone else's home(?). She doesn't want to be a ringleader, but BB and Kabru are gone and if initiating and organizing info sharing among Dreamers will help her achieve her goals, that's what she'll do.

Nao totally doesn't have a crush on anyone and will be hacking and messing with Hoshina's sleepr as one does. Please have your character observe her work when Sleepr time is here. Maybe comment on it.

Other than that, continued character growth and development is the order. She's learning via personally experiencing emotions and thoughts re: friendship, crushes, etc., growing, and finding her legs to speak re: this reality and her situation, which is very different than back home.

Other possible things in the air include (1) something-something Hanami? (2) Notably, she's experiencing difficulties with the Hunger as a result of exposure to all the blood that wasn't hers last month and some Humburger (Natsume, no she doesn't know) walking around, so a Hunger Control Incident is possible. (3) Tanuki shenanigans. (4) IDK bro, anything's posible.

RP Wishlist:

• Her big, long-term character arc involves reconciling her IDs, embracing her heritage, and wholly accepting herself--which sounds really simple, short and sweet, but is not--is in progress.

• She lost out on many mundane milestones and experiences that occur between the ages of 9-18, so in addition to her continuing to touch grass, I'd love for her to do mundane teen things like hang out, sleepovers, shopping, watching movies, playing games, etc. with other teens or people in general.

Anything else: Nao now has a pet bantam (less than a foot tall) silkie chicken and it looks like one of these AKA a muppet chicken.
