✿ character information
Name: Nanako Dojima
Age: almost 8 (left her home canon at age 6)
Species: human. Although as a crau, she's just spent two years as a Sumerian Goddess.
Canon: Persona 4 Golden
Canon point: Persona 4 Golden, after True Ending but pre-Epilogue.
CRAU: The Far Shore was a game based around the series Noragami in which gods exist to answer prayers and do favors for the mortal world and in doing so gain followers, renown, and riches. These gods take for themselves shinki, or the souls of deceased mortals, to become their weapons and tools to carry out their tasks and fight off evil and corrupted spirits. In game terminology, all characters arrived in the Far Shore as either a god with a new personification/reincarnation or as the soul of a deceased mortal, having lost all the previous memories of their lives and here to serve the gods as their new shinki.
Nanako herself arrived as one of the new gods and took on the personification of Nanshe, the Sumerian goddess of social justice and divination, widows and orphans, fishing and commerce. Spending two years in this role, Nanako has advanced and grown a lot since first arriving. Having gone through numerous shinki in that time, she developed a grasp for various ways of using her magic, which manifested via Empathy and Divine Element Manipulation (she transformed into a literal angel when using her goddess magic, because that was how her mind wrapped around herself as a being who could use goddess powers like this). Although she usually filled a support role, she did learn how to use her shinki and magic to fight against evil spirits and was taken under the wing of several strong fighters to teach her how to defend herself and help others. Although at nearly 8, she still has a very childish grasp and expertise in this area. But she also existed here mostly on her own with only her shinki to look after her in this time period, as well as turning her temple into a shelter for homeless shinki who hadn't yet found a god to serve. Basically, she was the tiniest mom figure the Heavens had ever seen.
Abilities: No special abilities (unless being adorable counts as a superpower). Nanako does have considerable experience using magic now because her goddess powers manifested themselves through Empathy in the Far Shore, meaning she could make things happen when she focused intently on certain emotions or channeled what she was feeling into manifesting her will. She was also in the process of learning how to use her magic to heal things, since her Divine Element Manipulation allowed her this ability. When using her magic, she often manifested angel wings, a halo, and would glow with a soft holy light (her childish interpretation of how her powers should work, since she didn't really understand 'gods' when she first arrived) She has 2 years' worth of training in archery and familiarity with flying, and has expanded her knowledge of fishing, gardening, and cooking considerably in her time there and looking after everyone.
History: Nanako's Wiki, Nanako's CRAU Info
Personality: As one of the youngest characters in Persona 4, a lot of her shown interactions reflect this. She's often shy around strangers, but is shown to warm up to people quickly. After the disaster of her mother's death, Nanako's been mostly responsible for raising herself and tending to the Dojima home, instilling in her a deep sense of responsibility and nurturing nature that is advanced far beyond her young age. Still, she's naive and innocent, especially when it comes to dealing with the adults and their more complex emotions or situations, which she often has a hard time grasping. She doesn't like conflict and gets very upset when her family members or those around her are fighting or arguing.
Nanako is cheerful and friendly and easy-going the more she warms up to a person. She is delighted by simple things and loves just spending time with her friends and family. It doesn't take much to make her smile. She's very diligent and determined and puts a lot of effort into everything she does, whether it's her chores or her schoolwork. She loves spending her evenings watching tv and is especially entertained by quiz shows. Anytime the older kids include her in their adventures makes her happy and she loves when everyone comes to visit.
Her time in the Far Shore didn't alter this any, only expanded on it. She's gotten much more accustomed to interacting with strangers by now, even if that isn't always the wisest thing for her to do. She is still possibly too trusting when meeting someone new and interacting with those around her, perhaps because even in the Far Shore she was as fiercely protected by those she came to think of as friends and family. Her nature of nurturing only blossomed here in an official capacity to do just that. Her time in the Far Shore had her growing and maturing for her age but at her core, altered little of the sweet loving soul she's always been.
Arrival item: Nanako arrives with one of her most cherished items, a finely carved archery bow stained a pale pink and fashioned in the same shape as the one her shinki, Homura, had once taken.
Age: almost 8 (left her home canon at age 6)
Species: human. Although as a crau, she's just spent two years as a Sumerian Goddess.

✿ life in fable
Game plans: Nanako will be delighted to help however she can. Learning about the poor dragon missing his siblings now will make her want to do everything in her power to make sure the brothers and sisters can be reunited once more. Plus, gardening and doing other things they seem to be asked for here are among her favorite hobbies, so she's looking forward to seeing what she can do!
Fruit trees: Nanako will be growing pears! (i think i'll aim her towards rabbits)
Any final thoughts?
