Shuji

A Yuki-onna
From her home on the moon she became fascinated with the world below. The warmth people shared with one another and the fabulous colors. She fell, hoping to visit and not realizing it was impossible to return. When she arrived on earth however, she discovered her presence caused all many of being to flee to hearths and shelters for protection against her icy aura and plants wilted and died when she approached. She felt desolate and alone.

Shuji was named so by the staff of the onsen, who gave her shelter. She brought snow and cold, perfect for a business whose patrons visited seeking the warmth of the hot springs. As she, herself can not touch the steamy waters without injury, she locks herself away with books and practices beautiful calligraphy. Her work can often be seen hanging around the onsen.

Although she has a home, Shuji still suffers from loneliness. There is one other who doesnt seem to mind the cold in favor of her company, a new guest named Rosetta. They spend hours together in the library, in silent companionship. The bubbly woman's love is the only warmth Shuji has ever truly felt.
