Reference Sheet Kito

7/9/18: shE HAS A NEW REF SHEET SO BLEASE GO TO THAT ONE 

Edit 6/25/17: The type of injury she got with her wrist has since changed sorta recently, cause I wanted the injury itself to be a lil bit more obvious but also not as overthetop I guess as the original- since I never did anything much with the original idea x,D So now she's got some spacey/glowy burn marks in place of it.

Edit 12/5/16: Gave this goober a comPLETE overhaul art-wise since she deserved some updated goodness~

Edit 8/29/16: Tweaked her color palette a smidge

Edit 4/21/16: Really minor change to this sheet, since apart from drawing her arms n' legs a bit thicker, her design is pretty much the exact same. So I just changed the shadow color on the dress and replaced Goro's old silhouettes with his new ones :>

Goro's: 

I can't believe it's been at least 4 something months since coloring either of these guys, and almost a year since shading them like what even
Glad I can finally break that streak- since something like this has been a LOOONG time coming for these two >:,D

Name: Kito (Given to her by Goro when he first found her)
Age: N/A; Irnovians tend to stop aging physically and mentally at an early adult-stage (much like Goro had), however Kito wound up stopping prematurely, leaving her in a 'Peter Pan' sort of state where she perpetually exists as a kid- inside and out. Story-wise she's the equivalent of an 8 year old.
Gender: Female
Race/Species: Irnovian
Sexuality: Asexual Aromantic
Place of Birth: Onvaris Star Nursery
Biology:

Personality:
Overall Kito is a really optimistic person, and in fact can be really open and blunt if she's comfortable enough with another character. However it's a lot trickier to make friends for her than you might think, as she's actually more introverted and reserved when it comes to starting connections with others. She likes to play off of people's curiosity about her powers, and try to get their attention indirectly instead of talking to them outright. So if she makes a connection, she'll roll with it pretty darn quick- even if the person she's connected to might not have the best of intentions.

History: Kito was originally under the careful watch of the robotic sitters Parry and Podley among many other baby Novites from her star nursery. There was a nasty incident that took place involving a Swarm of Reapreons that injured a lot of the children, so many kids in her group were placed under particularly special care. Kito happened to be an unfortunately curious baby, and one turn of their backs led the little robots into losing track of her until she drifted all the way off into Goro's hands. Now she's grown up with a sense of familial love many Irnovians are typically alien to with their more platonic nature, with how nurturing (and downright motherly) Goro has acted in taking care of her. So she sees many of the friends she makes now as more of an extension to her whole family.~

Family: Irnovians are incapable of having 'blood' relatives. Instead, past generations would consider "families" being clusters of friendships they created with those they met on their travels through granting wishes. Friendship is a deeply cherished bond for Irnovians, though in the most recent years it's become an exclusive pact between their own kind only. Kito's the first one in half a millennium to start building a family of her own across the universe, and taking the concept far more literally than many others might.

Goro is the dearest and closest person out of her entire life, being the one to take her in and raise her up himself, though her other immediate family includes Alvis the grandpa book, the robots Parry & Podley and a happy-go-lucky pet paintblot named Kloog.
While her EXTENDED family branches out to include:

Goro's own dad, Braeburn
A surprisingly softhearted Reapreon (near the middle of the page), as well as some security guards
The Irnovian Council
A sentient pastel colored space marshmellow (faaaar bottom right of the page, with the pink cheeks and star marks on their knees)
A perky pack of paint people
A sassy pumpkinhead of a mysterious magical academy


Likes & Hobbies:

Dislikes & Fears:

Other Trivia:

After an intense encounter with a strange parallel species to her own kind known as a Collapsrin, she's had horrendous issues with night terrors, and generally puts off sleep for as long as she can get away with.
Kito greets any of her friends with an enormous hug around their head or their shoulders.
When mentioning Goro in passing to somebody that doesn't know him, or when she's asked about her parent(s)/family, she'll refer to Goro as 'my Goro' in place of 'my dad', since he's her only concept of a parent- and he always mentioned himself in the 3rd person rather than as a 'dad' figure when talking to her as a babby.
