the shepherdess

The Shepherd speaks Russian, voiced by bilingual (English/Russian) actress Emma Breezy. He has an accent and imperfect pronunciation; this is likely due to Emma being born in New York. This caused some confusion, but Emma has confirmed that The Shepherd speaks "entirely in Russian."

The Shepherdess appears feline to a degree. She has a black humanoid body with a slender neck, legs, and arms. Her head sports a pair of black ears that curve upward like horns. Her two-colored face resembles a mask, with red on the left side and white on the right (with a small red section on the cheek of the white side). The red side sports the outline of her mouth and has a light yellow oblong cat eye, while the white side has a much more detailed eye along with an eyebrow. Her red side and the red cheek present on her white side also have angular whiskers. She also sports hair that starts as a brown streak on top of her head and extends into two pigtails.

The Shepherdess's attire consists of a brown vest buttoned with red buttons, which exposes her midriff, and a matching long brown skirt held in place with a red belt. She also wears brown sandals and holds a shepherd's crook.

At first, the Shepherdess appears abrupt and frazzled, acting aggressively and ignoring what Ena has to say. She seems to hold importance to the Grand Rune, insisting that she no longer gives horoscopes and should not be bothered by "simpletons". She is therefore perceptive and seems to be cheered up somewhat, as she promptly faints from the Nougat Ena gives her. After receiving the gift, she gives her a Blood ID in return and directs Ena towards the Mannequin Expanse not far away before falling asleep.
