Name: Unknown! You can call him whatever strikes your fancy. But the Count's nickname for him is Ten-chan.
Age: Probably hundreds, if not thousands of years old. In his human form, he looks to be in his mid-teens.
Height: VARIES. In human form, I would say about 5 feet.
Weight: VARIES. In human form, I would say he's a little on the skinny side.
Medical Info: DO YOU REALLY WANT TO GET INTO THIS which is to say if he wants to be perfectly healthy, he's gonna be perfectly healthy.
Eyes: VARIES. In human form, I'm going with orangey-red.
Hair: VARIES. In human form, I'm going with blonde.
Physical traits: VARIES. DO YOU SEE A PATTERN YET. Okay okay, I'll assume the traits I'm describing will be for one of his two original forms, the primary one being his human form. He dresses like a teenager, but definitely doesn't look like a normal teenager. He looks like glam-goth-punk, with really wild hair and a braid that reaches his ankles. He wears eyeliner, has pointy elf-ears, and a tilak on his forehead.

His other original form is a nine-tailed fox, and I think that's pretty self-explanatory. He's cute and fuzzy, okay.
What's Okay To Mention Around Him/Her: Anything and everything. Ten-chan will roll with it.
Abilities: Is a shapeshifter! Canon isn't 100% clear on how far this extends, but we do know that he can shift into any kind of animal. In fact, he can shift into whatever animal it is you want to see, which is why the Count originally offers him to a large family with very differing tastes, because he could appear to them as their favorite pet at multiple instances. Later on in the manga, he takes on Chris's form and acts just like him to Chris's two sisters, and they buy it. So obviously he can shift to non-animal forms, too. Taking all of this into account, I'm going to hypothesize a bit:

  • Ten-chan can take the form of any animal.
  • Ten-chan can know what a person's favorite animal is. I'm going to say that he has some psychic powers, but I think they extend only to surface thoughts. When the family who visited the pet shop saw him for the first time, they were expecting to see their favorite animal. It was easily picked up on the psychic plane. But Jasmine doesn't see an animal, she sees his human form -- and later on, he tells her that she needs to figure out what her "greatest desire" is. I think the reason for this is because he can't pick up on what her surface thoughts are so as to shift accordingly. So his abilities are limited.
  • Ten-chan can shift into human forms as well. Eg, Chris. However! To save myself from a gigantic headache, I am going to say that Ten-chan knows how to act like animals because he lives in the petshop. He was able to act like Chris because Chris is there all the time. I am not going to be having Ten-chan morphing into various characters all the time. And if he does, he's still going to have the personality of Ten-chan, since he can't and won't know how that person acts unless he's met them. And even then it's a stretch. He cannot shift into the person while they are nearby.
  • Ten-chan has one other little nifty thing he can do; he has this special form that looks like... well, like a Japanese priestess. So on rare occasions, he can do some magic, too. He releases Jasmine's spirit from the confines of the Earth, which is pretty nifty, but not a good record of the things he can do. SO I WILL BE COMING BACK TO THIS, but he doesn't really do that unless the Count asks him to specifically.
  • Ten-chan probably qualifies as demon/youkai/what have you.

He can also levitate. And probably a few other things as well. Akino-sensei will NEVER DEVELOP THIS.
Notes for the Psychics: Happy as a clam! Very zen. Also, shapeshifter will come up. But he knows you're looking. And if you delve too deep, he won't be terribly happy.
Can I shapeshift/bodyswap/spit at/step on/etc?: lol shapeshift. UH MAYBE? Ping me first.
Maim/Murder/Death: Why would you want to do that. :< Proooobably not, but if you really want to, we can work something out.
Cooking: ... he's a fox. He can fend for himself.
Kissing/Hugging: Not a problem! Ten-chan is cool with all that.
