Meme of Familiars

The Familiar Meme
As familiars are a big part of our game, I wanted to give everyone a chance to talk about their familiars and maybe even find some fun familiar CR going on~! Here is a nice little form you can fill out or you can just do whatever you want for replies too, I won't judge!
Have fun~!

no subject
Name: Toshirou Hijikata
Canon: Gintama
Magic: Elemental (Fire)
Links: Info & Permissions (please check for fourth-wall-breaking and threadjumping, but he's free game for mindreading, manipulation and whatever else!)
Familiar
Name: Arashi
Species: Crow Tengu
Special Features: Wind Magic
Personality: Reserved, aloof and damn hard to get a hold of!
Can they talk: Yes, he can talk just like a person (in Japanese, but I reckon it'll get magically translated into any other language).
Visuals: The art below best matches what I imagine him to look like, and this is where I got my inspiration for this familiar in the first place! I really like drawing from the many official merchandise lines (hence why I gave Hijikata cattle traits in Prismatica based on him representing the Ox in the zodiac line, etc). This yokai line spawned a really popular AU that still gets a lot of fanart, and those in our little Gintama cast from Prismatica who moved to Avalon decided to match their familiars to their assigned yokai. So far we have Kamui with his nue and Hijikata with his crow tengu, and Tsukuyo with her unofficial nekomata (
the merchandise lines are always a sausage fest because the merchandise team knows where the money is).
