During my writing adventures, once in a while I happen to spit out dumb little side-characters that kinda instantly grow a mind of their own. This is one of them. When she was still in my head, she was equal parts Mrs. Hasegawa from Lilo & Stitch and Mrs Bapka from Lackadaisy, I dunno how successful I was, but she's still a work in progress. There's room to slap other things on as I see fit.
She's the same species as Vin, so she gets the foofy ears and the cheek-spots as well.
