Remember That Thou Art Mortal

Geography Of Hinomoto

- Kaen-han (火炎 藩 ) - literally Flame Domain, capital: Tatemoto-shi* (palace’s origin 館本市) - Hyouga-han ( 氷河 藩 ) - literally Glacier Domain, capital: Sanmyakuto-shi* (mountains vein’s city 山脈門 市) - Fuhen-han (不偏 藩 ) - literally Impartial Domain, capital: Hitoyoshi-shi* (people’s luck city 人吉 市) - Inei-han (陰影 藩 ) - literally Shadow Domain, capital: Minegi-shi* (coast ridge city 峰岸 市) - Kouhai-han (荒廃 藩 ) - not an official name but people have started calling the devastated parts of the land that, since it kind of fell out of control of any Clan. *please note that ‘shi’ is an administrative suffix. Most people would probably refer to the city names’ as just “Minegi” instead of “Minegi-shi”, while documents will mention the city with the suffix! ————————— Hinomoto (日の本) is an island country with a temperate climate. The winters aren’t too harsh, and  the summers aren’t excessively hot, either. Due to the surrounding waters, they’re pretty humid though, and rain is a frequent occurrence. After the civil war split the country, some have started calling what used to be a single state Bukoku (分国) - “divided land”. Majority of the country is covered in hills and valleys, especially around the island’s centre. Combined with the moisture the surrounding waters provide, it makes it a perfect land for farming, with the most even terrain laying to the North, most of Kaen-han laying on flatlands. The biggest chain of mountains spreads along the West coast in the south, with the Hyouga-han’s capital at the mountain chain’s gate. Similar formations, but more rocky and of less height and span are found lining the rigged North-West coast of Kaen-han and  part of the East coast, obstructing access to Hinomoto from sea from the nearby foreign lands. Main sea trade routes used to head towards the even line of the East, but ever since the war has turned that side of Hinomoto into wastelands, they fell out of use. Most ships now go either to the ports in the North-East incline in land within Kaen-han’s territory and through ports of West Coast - through the gates of the Inei-han and smooth coastline of Hyouga-han.

With and without the mask!

AAAAHHH yes hello thank you for coming sweet anon

Well her name is Tomo (aka meme [pronounced meh-meh] aka mori) and she’s my GDA ( gay dessert anime - a group of people who make dessert gijinka and draw/rp them interacting ) oc in the Feudal Japan AU !! ( she’s a memento mori cocktail gijinka @mementomorisan )

So Memento Mori kind of has an identity issue, not knowing how to act, so she kind of split into several persona - Meme and Mori being the most prominent of the many personalities she has. Meme is quiet by nature but friendly and sort of absent minded. Mori is flirtatious and mature, polite and gentlemanly. Tomo is the persona that i developed for her specifically for AUs - who’s hasty, blunt and prideful. also easily embarrassed.

Memento Mori means “Remember Mortality” or “Remember that Thou Art Mortal” which is ironic, because in the war-struck feudal au, The thought of dying never really crossed Tomo’s mind, despite her constantly getting wounded, fatally even, because of her impatience and hastiness in battle.

In the Feudal AU, Tomo’s seemingly loving parents abandoned her at a very young age during the harsh times of war. She was forced to learn to survive on her own, often times being spared because of her young age. Over time, Tomo developed her own style of fighting using the blade she found off a fallen warrior. Though sloppy and unpredictable, her style was efficient and fluent. Though Tomo had loved her parents, she felt as if all their love was a facade, or wasted effort. This lead to Tomo being hesitant to grow closer to others. However, after being brought in by a kindhearted girl named Rolly, Tomo began to open up once more, albeit unknowingly. They parted, but by happenstance, met once again upon Tomo being brought under the wing of a Clan Leader, Haru (aka Shin) who she was eager to learn from, but was not accepted as an apprentice. She followed the clan leader and sort of developed a bond like family with him. Tomo didn’t realize she had constructed a bond with a whole new family - the Ice Clan, with Rolly, Haru and V and the other members of the clan. By swearing loyalty to this clan, Tomo gained the ability to manipulate water - almost like magic. Much like other beginning clan members, it took much training to get accustomed to the use of this new ability, but because Tomo’s view of her self was foggy and unrealized, it was hard to control this ability, so she seldom used it.
