Welcome to the supernatural creature's haven, Kinau. Kinau is a fictitious town on the O'ahu island of Hawaii. Why supernaturals have congregated in the island city is still unknown, but the inhabitants, human and supernatural alike, are learning to adjust to their new reality.
This site aims for a supernatural spin on a slice-of-life city, complete with an academy and college to ensure everyone has a place here.

A dragon as poisonous as Belladonna, Amaya has lived for centuries on end. Originally a reclusive village girl who hid her draconic heritage, she rose up in class and power upon becoming a mistress of a lord. However she was soon found out as a dragon, starting the chain of her marrying, killing, and fleeing her husbands. She now resides in Kinau as a shop keeper, partially free from persecution -- she still has the sins of murder and adultery on her back.
Her eyes gleamed like a purple garnet at the sign fixed on the glass wall of the new shop. NOW OPEN, it read in navy blue print. She had opened shop years ago in Kinau, but only now had she moved and renovated to something bigger. It wasn't that her shop failed to do business, back in the opening it faired well, but rather she had finally decided to expand a bit. She wanted to still stay homely but at times like this, change was good wasn't it?
A small smile played on her pink glossed lips, "Hm... Yes, it's good." The dragon had posted the word around about the new openings, though compared to now she wasn't exactly sure how much paper posted about would gather much attention. These days were so technologically advanced, with the social media and what not. Amaya wasn't completely dependant on it but she didn't exactly shun it either. As times changed she learned to try to adapt along with it -- it was just how things had to be done. Ah, well, it'd happen sooner or later. Maybe she should open a page on it sometime.
The purple-haired woman sauntered into the store, a small ring of bells welcoming her in as she entered. Plants surrounding the walkways and the shelves, from a vary of breeds; bottles and wraps lined the shelves among the foliage, each with their own handwritten sign attached. CHARISMATIC POTION -- ATTRACT POSITIVE ATTENTION and FOR NEW BEGINNINGS, CHERRY BLOSSOM LOVE POTIONS FOR THE YOUNG & OLD among the more simplistic things like GENMAI-CHA TEA MIX and CITRUS MIX RUB -- MOISTURIZE SKIN. All were handmade by her specifically. On her time on earth, she made sure to become adept at making her potions and mixes. She hadn't sold her potions willy nilly however, always warning the consequences. But she never made things extreme enough to, say, raise the dead. Though it would certainly bring in the money...
Amaya picked herself up, seating herself at the wooden counter: her legs and arms crossed with her classic smile. It might of looked unprofessional but that wasn't one of her main priorities anyways.
373 ◆ open ◆ might be a reference to the wanted ad posted before, or not :' ) bother her if you wish
Amaia is a pure blood demon with a hankering for creating trouble among humans. She excels in the sciences and has musical talent that she seldom showcases. Amaia is in search for someone to create a Faustian Contract with.

Amaia was on a mission. Her destination after being cooped up in classes all day was to her newly acquired job. She was able to score the position with her tremendous amount of experience (Which she had altered a bit since there was too much experience to write down throughout her six hundred fifty years of living...). She knew what people looked for in these types of papers, the requirements and what stood out to the reader. Of course, she was more than fit for the position, considering her great attention to detail and overall professionalism. Amaia was a little excited to say the least, for once. Before leaving the school building she would change into appropriate work clothes in the empty gym. She had a white long sleeved shirt tucked into a thigh high black skirt. She tied a red cloth around her neck to add some colour and slipped into some black flats. It was a simple outfit, it looked almost as though she was an accountant. Amaia did always prefer to wear shades over colour, it complimented her complexion better. She was then off to her new job at Garden of Belladonna.
The shop was originally located in a different building but had recently moved. It was this relocation that allowed Amaia to catch wind of their wanted ads. She thought that this change in environment would allow her to become more aware of the social group that was into these sorts of herbal remedies. It was unique from everything else in Kinau so she wasn't sure what to expect. The owner seemed like a kind person over the phone, but now they were going to meet in person. Amaia wasn't sure if the lady was a human but with the material sold in the shop, it was highly doubtful. Perhaps a game that Amaia could have with herself was figuring out exactly what the woman was? It would be more entertaining that way.
Once she stood head on with the newly decorated building, she made sure to soak in her surroundings. The place was adorned with Belladonna. It was pretty considering how faint the purple colour was on the plant, complimenting the mysterious aura the shop gave off. Amaia stepped forward, taking hold of the door handle and pushing it open. Her presence was announced by bells that softly chimed. She walked in confidently, an apathetic expression on her face. Indeed, Amaia was excited to be here but she would never express it outwardly. Her face hardly experienced a smile.
Of course, she was a little earlier for her shift.
She walked up to the front desk, noticing a woman with long, lilac coloured hair. Amaia stood in front of the lady, acknowledging the improper position she was seated in. Amaia mentally scowled. She was a perfectionist so seeing such an unprofessional posture was unappealing... Minus five points. "My name is Koizumi Amaia." She bowed. It was polite in her home country to bow while introducing oneself, so she would follow familiarity. "I have earned a position here at the 'Garden of Belladonna'. I plan to exceed your expectations and will be reliable when given a specific task." Her tone was monotone, her face unwavering. "It is honourable to make your acquaintance." Amaia's crimson orbs looked the woman right in her eyes, knowing that eye contact was key while socializing.
