Bah-Ming Ouh

Priestess

Fifteen years ago, a desperate mother of the Ouh family hid her baby at the Nine Ear Shrine as the family was rounded up for execution by a corrupt guard.  By the time the guards learned about the missing offspring, a large skulk of foxes had surrounded the temple.  Unwilling to tempt divine wrath, the guards retreated.  Allies of the family soon arrived to rescue the baby, at which point the foxes vanished.  That baby, Ba-Ming Ouh, grew up under the care of distant relatives.  While she shows signs of the Ouh family's inclinations toward the veneration of nature, Ba-Ming wishes to return her life debt by serving Daikitsu.  While some question her intentions, most Willowshorers support her dedication.
