#koi lore

Okay, SO! Time for some info-dumping. This is pretty much the equivalent of introducing a cast before a play. Koi Kurasachi is a man who has multiple tulpas within his mind, but only two are in the physical plane (I will explain more later.) Most of them he has no idea exist. As far as he knows only IK and H exist since they are on the physical plane with him and Seiteki is just a hallucination. I will post info pages of them all soon because I finally glazed my art and added watermarks. For now though, here's what they look like and you can kinda infer their personalities from this.

An ancient tale from the Orient tells of a huge school of golden koi swimming upstream the Yellow River in China. Gaining strength by fighting against the current, the school glimmered as they swam together through the river. When they reached a waterfall at the end of the river, many of the koi turned back, letting the flow of the river carry them away. The remaining koi refused to give up. Leaping from the depths of the river, they attempted to reach the top of the waterfall to no avail. Their efforts caught the attention of local demons, who mocked their efforts and heightened the waterfall out of malice. After a hundred years of jumping, one koi finally reached the top of the waterfall. The gods recognized the koi for its perseverance and determination and turned it into a golden dragon, the image of power and strength.
