Personality

Crafty: Not just in the literal DIY sense, she’s always has some bizarre scheme up her sleeve. She’s under the impression she can puppet master her way out of trouble, this has yet to prove true.

Rose-stained Glasses: A lifelong fanfic reader, Reese fantasizes about being swept up in a world of romance and excitement. Deep down she knows life is not like the movies, but will never outwardly admit that.

Silly: She is a little bit of an oddball, drawn to all things novel. With zero filter, too many fun facts, and an inability to lie, conversations with Reese are definitely interesting. Reese marches to the beat of her own drum, paying little mind to social norms. At her core she's a performer who just wants to entertain others and herself with her own shenanigans.


Additional Information
Reese is very expressive in her body language and manner of speech, it’s a bit exaggerated at times. She talks with her hands and skips more than she does walk.

Abilities

Ability Format
Standard Traits

Advantages
Minor Illusions, Beast Tongue, Animal Form (Fox), Mesmer
Disadvantages
Weakness (Salt), Debt Bound, Anchor (Bracelet), Mental Vulnerability

Core Advantage
Reese is able to boost the scale and realism of her minor illusion ability if she is actively narrating what she is doing. The illusions are maintained through her continuing to talk and the larger they are in scale the more she must explain. The scale of the illusions is limited to about the size of her body and they must stay within close distance. These illusions are unable to cause any physical harm to those who view them.

Current Situation

Occupation
Tenth Grader
Housing
Reese lives in an old and small townhouse in Polaris Pass nearby the local high school with her brother and mom.
Wealth
Her family is middle class and she receives a small allowance each month.

History

Date of Birth
July 25th
Place of Birth
Okinawa, Japan
Clarisse “Reese'' Ryusaki was the youngest of three siblings. Her father’s job as an engineer in the air force meant her family was constantly moving between different military bases around the world. While their mother was a kitsune who aged at an unnaturally slow rate, the siblings were effectively human as young children initially unaware of any supernatural heritage. It was a few months after moving to Portland when the whole truth came out.

She was eight when her brother accidentally used his powers in front of their dad. Of course, she wasn't there, all she knew is that everyone her family was fighting over something and she was just too young to understand. Her mother vanished for about a year, it was just the three siblings and their father. Reese spent that time blissfully unaware of any drama that may have unfolded.

When her mother did eventually return, both parents mutually agreed on a divorce. Her mother moved Polaris Pass with her two older siblings. At the time everyone assumed she was somehow human like their father so that's who she stayed with to lead a mundane life. A few years ago when visiting her siblings in Polaris Pass her sleeping streak was broken as she started to notice the weirdness around her, but being eleven this did not break her brain. Eventually her father got stationed out of country again and Reese, wanting the "real school experience", moved back with her mom and brother.
