Okami Amaterasu

Okami Amaterasu is the main character in the video game Okami, which is available for Nintendo Wii and PlayStation 2. Amaterasu is a sun goddess from Japanese Shinto mythology who takes on the form of a white wolf in the game. Many characters believe her to be the reincarnation of another white wolf named Shiranui, who saved Japan one hundred years prior by fighting off the evil eight headed demon, Orochi.

Okami Amaterasu has a sidekick named Issun, who is a one inch tall artist with a quick wit. He often refers playfully to Okami Amaterasu as "Ammy" and "Furball".

Throughout the game, Okami Amaterasu is charged with the mission of restoring Japan to its former state of beauty and keeping the darkness at bay. To accomplish this task, players must use the Wii remote to paint objects and elements onto the screen.
