Tenki no tsukaitsuku

Background
Tales are told of people being possessed, that a force that is not their own will is telling them to do things they normally would not. Over time, these stories would become part of myth, but in reality, many youkai had the ability to hijack another person's body and take it for a ride, metaphorically speaking. Tenki is one such Youkai, being a Kitsune created by Inari, to act as one of her many messengers. When she wasn't on any sort of assignment from Inari, she lived pretty normally on the island of Sado, some time before Mamizou would cause the foxes to leave. She started to hone her powers in her free time, and one such power was the ability to possess others. The first time she successfully did it, she had so much fun in the human body she was "borrowing" that she had made the decision to make possession her specialty. She would venture all across Japan and Japanese territory to possess others and cause confusion and such while doing so. Of course, she would find herself in many other locations due to her job, but once she was finished, she typically just returned to Sado to relax a bit before going on her next possession spree.

That lifestyle would soon have to change, however, as Mamizou (under a good disguise) would commit an act that the foxes of Sado considered unforgivable, so she would be one of many who packed up their belongings and left Sado for the mainland. She traveled light and decided just to roam aimlessly from then on, mostly because she couldn't find anyplace that she felt was as nice a home as she had in Sado. She mostly stuck to Japan, but wound up body hopping in some of the other parts of the world that Inari dragged her to. She absorbed quite a bit of worldly knowledge during this time of her life, learning many human languages and customs, but still always returning to Japan at some point or another. This would continue until the day the Hakurei Border was established, which by happenstance, Tenki was inside of when it went up. At first, she didn't particularly like the idea of being bottled up in one location, but over time, she grew to appreciate Gensoukyou for what it was: a youkai paradise. Additionally, it was at this point she discovered she was powerful enough to possess other youkai if she was more powerful than them. Once again, she went back into this routine of "possess people until Inari needs me, do job, then go right back to messing with people in Gensoukyou." (Thankfully Inari was courteous enough to plop her right back into Gensoukyou once she was done with whatever job she had for Tenki.)

Personality
While loyal and unquestioning to Inari, Tenki is a difficult person to deal with when interacting with anyone else. She loves to mess with people through possession or just acting as a troll to whomever has the pleasure of speaking with her when she isn't possessing someone. That said, she isn't a very violent person either, often fleeing when a fight breaks out, or trying to calm the other party down to the point where a fight is unlikely. Her M.O. is to simply mess with people and cause a little confusion and chaos by manipulating people, hopefully without anyone being any the wiser.

Power/Combat
Tenki specializes in possessing people. By transforming into a Kitsunebi form, changing her appearance to that of a light blue spectral fire, she can possess others by making physical contact with them. How strong a grip she has depends on the host themselves. If it's a regular human, she has complete control and nothing the human does can break her grip. On the opposite end of the spectrum, if she possesses an older youkai with a considerable amount of power (say, Aya for example) she may only manifest as a voice in their head, offering only suggestions, not commands. Regardless, only an exorcism can really separate her from her host, even if she has little control over them. She can choose to leave her host whenever she so wishes, and it's not inherently unhealthy for the host to have her possessing them, so it's not unusual for her to expel herself from someone only to return sometime later.

Tenki's ability comes with a side effect also dependent on the level of control she has over an individual host. She can access knowledge that the host has locked in their brains. Using similar examples, she could have access to closely guarded secrets to random trivia, if she has a strong enough grip on her host. If it's more of a case where it's an older, stronger youkai, she will have access to little more than their current thoughts. In all cases, communication with her is possible while she's possessing someone; all they have to do is direct their thoughts toward her and they can have a mental conversation with Tenki. An indirect result of this ability has led Tenki to become a very knowledgable individual, as she has a good memory and there's nothing stopping her from remembering the information her hosts can "give" her.

Note: she can obviously still do other things that are bog-standard for kitsune, but her specialty is possession so it's the only thing I'm going over in detail.

In a straight fight, she's very skilled in using deception and illusion in combination with powerful fire magic. One of her favorite tactics is to shoot "fake" projectiles alongside ones that would actually harm her opponent, and you do really need to be paying attention in order to tell in a split second whether or not what she's firing at you is real or not. Even though she dislikes getting into fights, she is no pushover, and will not hesitate to use her full power if provoked. She's also not above attempting to possess her opponent mid-fight, so if she were to transform into her Kitsunebi form, her opponent must avoid contact with her at all costs, or damage her to knock her back into her humanoid form.

Spellcards
lol

Major

 * Inari Myoujin: Tenki was created by Inari, and occasionally receives jobs from her every so often. She is obligated to do whatever she asks, but if there aren't any pressing issues she needs to take care of, she generally doesn't seek Inari out, since she's kinda got a lot on her plate as is, what with being the god of too many things. There is a part of her that wishes she could perhaps spend time with Inari that isn't strictly business, but


 * Reimu Hakurei: More than a few run-ins have occurred with the Hakurei shrine maiden, as she gets called in to deal with "people acting unusually" when Tenki possesses someone in the village, every last one has ended with Tenki escaping before she could potentially get exorcised. At this point, she will avoid Reimu at all costs, and thus is rarely, if ever seen near the Hakurei Shrine.

Minor

 * Mamizou Futatsuiwa: As an ex-resident of Sado, she obviously knows of Mamizou, and the Futatsuiwa family. She's not aware that Mamizou is the tanuki who caused all of the foxes in Sado to leave, but regardless she isn't exactly thrilled with the idea of possibly seeing her. The two never really interacted during the time Tenki was in Sado either, and Tenki probably wants to keep it that way.


 * Marisa Kirisame: Tenki possessed Marisa for a few days before she died (temporarily). Marisa seems to understand that Tenki is only out messing with people for her own amusement, and doesn't seem to consider her much of a threat.

Trivia

 * Surprise, surprise, she doesn't like Tanuki at all. Then again, not many foxes do.
 * If she's in the village, she hides her foxlike features to draw less attention, though a keen eye will notice her eyes are not quite completely disguised.

(If she's possessing someone in RP, anything that she says in (thoughts) can be heard by whoever she's possessing.)
