Princess Nami (Puni-Puni)

Little octopus youkai, about as big around as a large grapefruit. Messenger and daughter of the sea god Ryujin. She has a very matter-of-fact personality, and is curious about life on land. Being a daughter of Ryujin, she can shift into a semi-humanoid shape at will for better mobility on land, though she still looks very octopus-like. Her real name is Nami, but Saya dubbed her "puni-puni" because of her squishy-bodied octopus form. She has great respect for Koyane because of how kind he is to his servants.

Early Life
Princess Nami was born Princess Saya in a small territory in India, with her mother being related to more well known royalty of larger lands and, if the stories are to be believed, distantly related to the divine. Her father, the sea god Ryuujin, left her to live among her mother's people for a majority of her youth. Her best friend and constant companion was her servant Vajra, a boy with intense interest in sorcery and in little else. Being that she was of royal blood and her father insisted, Nami was betrothed to Vajra's brother Fateh for most of her life. However, her betrothed was significantly older than her and had multiple affairs before Nami discovered them and confronted him about it. He used this instance to assault her and when she told her mother, she called Fateh before the court where he proceeded to kill her in front of all her subjects. Nami, then put into the place her mother had held, sentenced him to death without burial. Soon her cousin came and took over the territory and Ryuujin retrieved his daughter. She spent the rest of her childhood in the ocean, forgetting most of what living on land was like and coming to speak only with her telepathy. Once things in the town got the attention of the gods, Ryuujin sent Nami to go and speak to Koyane on his behalf, hoping that he could use this as a chance to find her a proper husband.

Present
As things escalated in the conflict with Misao, Nami decided to stay with Koyane as she decided she enjoyed his company far more than that of her father. She became close friends with Honeko, Naoki and Saya (the one who pulled her from the pond in the first place). As she is maturing she has come more into her powers, discovering her ability to speak out loud as well as telepathically, shapeshift particular parts of her body between her two physical forms, and exorcise evil spiritual powers.
