**Hi, I'm a new DM who picked up Seasons of Ghosts due to loving its eastern themes.**
My party not as diverse as others in this forum, as in my friend group, I'm known to like kitsune from anime/games a lot. So, the players kind of went with it.
**Characters:**
1. **John Doe/Minh Long (Nephilim Kitsune Polymath Bard):**
- A natural-born local within Northridge of Willowshore.
- Has an oppressive household that wants to push him into being a doctor, similar to his older brother.
- Changed career paths once he got his instrument.
- Had trouble playing it correctly until a Kami Lord sponsored him with the muse.
- Currently working at The Seven Colored Songbird under Kazuma Oono, becoming a somewhat known performer within the village.
- His enjoys the West(The Inner Sea) too much. So he adapted the name of John Doe from the novels. He loves nothing more to leave the village to go westward.
- A little wacky and maybe enjoys performing too much.
2. **Nilrem (Kitsune Inscribed One Witch):**
- A natural-born from Southbank.
- Tutored by Anjal of Thulsadus, the former owner of The Mother's Coil, and good friends with the adopted daughter Jubei.
- Learned the arcane arts and the usage of his star orb familiar named Orby from them.
- Left the village of Willowshore to explore Tian Xia until 2 years before the campaign, called back due to the failing health of Anjal.
- Currently working within the Nine Ear Shrine with Ouh Ba-Ming.
- Tries to be a ladies man, but fails hard at it.
- Still working on who the Patron is.
3. **Pinna (Kitsune Monk):**
- A natural-born from Southbank and childhood friend of Nilrem's.
- Similarly tutored by Anjal and also friends with Jubei, though she found out she preferred to punch things instead.
- Left with Nilrem to explore Tian Xia and came back for the same reason.
- Currently works at Her Fluvial Lady of Souls under Elizeth Candora.
- A stern hard working woman. Who is well known to being a amazing cook to those who eat her food.
4. **Insert Name (Hunger-Seed Human Elemental Instinet Barbarian):**
- Disclaimer: (The player wanted to change their character since their original character couldn't fit the party. Also, as of writing this, the name is not known.)
- An outsider to the town of Willowshore, cursed with the influence of Oni along with her little sister.
- Typically lived on the outskirts of towns until Yong Wu-Xiu, the traveling blacksmith from Eternal Blaze Ironwork, found her and invited them back to Willowshore.
- She became close friends with Yong Wu-Xiu ever since.
- Now works as a hunter for the Silvermist Lodges and lives on the outskirts of Willowshore with her little sister.
- Despite being a Barbarian. She enters a state of extreme focus instead. Somewhat of a loner, but still willing to interact with others.
