"Ah... Amaterasu. Origin of all that is good and mother to us all..." Ever since I played Okami ages ago, I've fooled around with different concepts for a "human" form of the game's player character, Amaterasu. It was a lot of fun sampling from both the fantastical style of the game and traditional imagery of the goddess. I especially wanted something that looked divine and ornate, while still appearing battle ready and sort of gender-neutral, considering the game plays around with pronouns and incarnations a lot. I hope I didn't fuck up the kanji too badly!
