Name: Kashiki Minako (Kashi-chan/Mina-chan)
Age/Birthday: 15 (10/31)
Appearance: Tall, with large chest, long legs, and musician's hands (hands with long fingers, good for playing musical instruments). Wears the usual uniform for her school, but with black leggings under the mini skirt. Has waist length white blond hair that most people make fun of, and she usually wears it in a high ponytail or braids, and emerald green eyes. Outside of school, wears a very gothic style.
Personality: Doesn't like violence, because of her background living on the streets and being in a gang, but will fight someone to prove a point. Has a sensitive nose and so gets sick when she smells something rotten or rusty, like blood. Most of the time, the color red, paired with the rusty scent of blood, makes her dizzy, nauseous, and causes her to hyperventilate. Her background made her act like a Yankee (Punk), though she would appear to be more of a Goth, like Hanajima. She dabbles in the Wiccan faith, but isn't a full-fledged Wiccan. She isn't very open to most people, and avoids guys because of her strange power. Because of her gang days, most people stay away from her.
Past: Her parents died in an accidental explosion at a government facility when she was six. Because of her age, and the concept that her uncle was taking care of her after the accident, the government sends her a check every month to pay for certain expenses. Her family, Kashiki, is a small and ancient clan of people possessed with the spirits of the western zodiac. Only one member of the clan is possessed at a time and the circumstances for the second form vary with each generation (The date, year, and circumstances of the birth). She transforms into a scorpion (she's a Scorpio) when she is hugged by a guy (hence the comment about staying away from guys). She lived under a bridge in a less populated area until she was in fourth grade, when she met Honda Kyoko and Tohru. She went home from school once with Tohru and became friends with her. After Kyoko found Minako sleeping under the bridge, she insisted on her moving in with them. During middle school, eighth grade, she went into a bad streak, having been tortured about her hair by most other students, she decided to fight back and joined a gang. She met and started hanging out with Uotani Arisa while they were in that gang. After Kyoko died, Minako was left on her own again and she moved into an abandoned building and continued using her government checks to pay for food and doing her laundry, as well as her school tuition.
