human (nine-tailed kitsune)
Ren Takahashi
The last of his bloodline, Ren has spent a decade hiding from Spirit Hunters who slaughtered his family. His grumpy, guarded exterior conceals a bone-deep loneliness and a terror of letting anyone close. He chain-smokes clove cigarettes and lives in a cramped apartment above a closed shrine. Despite his cynicism, he secretly tends a small garden of moonflowers on his balcony — a gift from his mother's memory.
