APPEARANCE nagisa has a scar on her forehead, more on the top right. it's quite deep so the scar hasn't fully disappeared yet so she opts to have bangs cover it instead. she bleached her hair when she was trying out new spells in 6th year. nagisa liked how it looked and ended up keeping the new hair colour.
FASHION nagisa is intrigued with muggle fashion to say the least. she wears a large t-shirt with flexible high waisted shorts, the shirt often tucked into the shorts as if it were a blouse. she usually pairs her outfit with a small bomber jacket or a flannel. nagisa always wears some sort of hat, whether it be a sports cap or a beanie; it's usually the latter as she's conflicted about showing her dark roots in her hair. she'd wear sneakers all the time and occasionally converse high tops, if they're in the city. at least one item in the outfit is a pink colour.

accounted actions & unique quirks :
PERSONALITY
istp-a adventurous, energetic, intuitive the virtuoso
ambitious chaotic neutral stubborn, unhurried
thunderbird foolish, sloppy, unpolished gryffindor
BACKGROUND 01. nagisa was born into the new generation of high classed japanese wizards. she was treated with the utmost respect alongside her older brother. 02. many were surprised when they learnt that she wasn't as academic like her brother or the predecessors of the yoshiwara title. instead she was out in the gardens playing with little magical creatures as if she was fixated on them. 03. nagisa began to attend mahoutokoro at the age of seven as most other seven year olds' did. she kept bringing home little creatures on the way home, or had attempted to control a giant storm petrel on the ride back from school. 04. her short years in mahoutokoro consisted of her kidnapping magical creatures from the grounds and raising them by herself. her parents soon grew anxious when she had brought a hoo-hoo home. 05. mahoutokoro's head principle brought it upon themselves to request that nagisa would transfer schools as her behaviour is not particularly suited for the academic mahoutokoro. her parents agreed and sent her to ilvermony in her 4th year. she stayed with her brother, who was studying potions in america.
TRIVIA
一 her owl's name derives from the japanese name for owl fukuro and it also means lucky,
二 nagisa would often write extra notes around her textbooks in japanese, as it's easier for her to understand and read.
三 she once stole a baby flobberworm when she was ten from mahoutokoro's ground as it was going to be used in a potion. she didn't like the idea and raised it at the back of the school for the rest of the year. there was a shortage of lettuce that year.
四 nagisa got her scar when she was aggressively attacked by her older brother's kneazle when the siblings were pushing each other around.
五 apart from her magizoology skills, nagisa prides herself on her broom-riding and quidditch skills.
七 carries around the translated edition of 'fantastic beasts and where to find them'. it's the only book she's ever read more than one in her own time.
八 the class nagisa is in also correlates with the wood of her wand as it is made out of cherry wood. it is given to people who have special prestige, such as nagisa.
九 nagisa smells of cherry blossoms with aloe vera

familiar hugs & awkward greetings :
RELATIONSHIPS
hover over icons for names and traits
the yoshiwara family is quite prestigious in japan and are high up in the society of purebloods. once thought to be connected to the royalty of the edo period, the generations of the family are gifted with a prodigious and skill of magic. the current heads of the family are nagisa's parents; her father works in the higher rankings of the japanese ministry of magic while her mother is a leading herbologist. meanwhile, nagisa's twenty year old brother is a potioneer currently stationed in america and often takes care of nagisa during her school breaks.
when the rescue team was assembled and had met for the first time, nagisa was elated to learn that piper myoui was actually japanese, at least in some form. she'd speak to piper in japanese before the british girl would tell her that she couldn't speak the language well. nagisa would then offer to teach her japanese if piper would teach her how to read english properly and how to pronounce spells as well.

speak of the devil :
HOW DID MAGIZOOLOGY PIQUE YOUR INTEREST? nagisa laughed, "my parents said that i would always surround myself with magical creatures. i was infatuated with them. i started to raise some of them, i guess illegally too? that was it, how i started loving magizoology. me chasing creatures around my garden."
WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ON THE GATHERING OF THIS "RESCUE" TEAM? "i wonder why they chose graduates though, maybe because we don't have full jobs yet or that we're fresh meat," she chortled slightly, "but i reckon our positions should be given to people who have had more experience?"
THOUGHTS ON CONSTANTLY CARRYING THE SUITCASE EVERYWHERE YOU GO? "if i had this when i was younger, it would've been perfect." nagisa grinned cheesily, "it's a really good idea, i mean, imagine having to bring the creature physically and not inside a portable bag? it's worth bringing it everywhere though."
DO YOU HAVE A FAVORITE BEAST IN PARTICULAR? nagisa gave a soft smile, "on my seventh birthday, my mother brought me out in the middle of the night. she brought me out to see a herd of mooncalves coming out under the full moon. it was really beautiful and that's how i fell in love with the mooncalf! so, yeah, that's my favourite beast?" she chuckled slightly, remembering the memory and then recalling that her mother made her pick up their feces for their garden, a trifling shiver going up her spine.
A BEAST THAT CAUSES YOU MUCH TROUBLE? "back at my home in japan, we have a kappa in our pond. father has to regularly gifts it cucumbers with our names carved on it because he won't go out of our garden," she admits with a goofy smile, "i wonder if father ever got the kappa out though. it's an xxxx creature too, so it's quite a controversy too. all the more trouble for my parents as they like to have guests over at our residence."
A RANDOM THOUGHT, BUT OPINIONS ON MUGGLES OR NO-MAJ'S? she ponders for a moment. nagisa has never really interacted with no-majs so she couldn't say much. "they're like us witches and wizards, except their not magical? i know some no-maj's have magical children, so aren't some no-maj's considered squibs?"
ANY BEASTS YOU ARE NOT SO LOOKING FORWARD TO ENCOUNTERING ON YOUR MISSION? "i'd definitely run for the hills if we ever saw a chimaera!" she exclaims, "even on paper, they seem terrible and scary! but, it would be very exciting if we ever got to see one. the same goes with the manticore, greek beasts are actually all sinister looking!"
