Further Information
Notable characteristics: Appearance Focus, Soothing Presence, Intimidation 6
In Ursus form, Mina looks like an Asian black bear: relatively small as bears go, with big round ears and a white patch on their chest not dissimilar to a lunar crescent. There's something striking about their appearance, as if they were the platonic ideal of a moon bear, with a presence that is simultaneously both calming and imposing: a mother bear's comforting care and lurking ferocity all in one.
Most of the time, Mina prefers to interact with shifter society and mortality alike in her Homid form, which resembles a short, broad-shouldered Korean woman in her early twenties, with a round face and soft body that seem somewhat incongruous with her intimidating presence. She's calming to be around in the way that disapproving ajummas are a great incentive to calm down and act reasonable, although the occasional maternal warmth filters through her almost perpetually beleaguered and irritated demeanor.
As an Ursine Okuma, Mina tends to find gendered pronouns grammatically cumbersome and doesn't identify precisely with human gender; for ease of use and largely out of habit, they generally accept she/her and they/them pronouns and feminine-to-neutral terms of address.
Her Deed Name, 쑥, is generally translated as "Mugwort." She generally explains it with the phrase "because I'm medicinally valuable, but bitter and kind of a trip."
