Amaterasu (天照), nicknamed Ammy by Issun, is the main protagonist of Ookami. In her past life she was known as Shiranui. Amaterasu is the Ōkami, the Sun Goddess to all of Nippon, and the "origin of all that is good and mother to us all".
She wields 3 divine instruments: a reflector_ (shield), a rosary_ (string of magatama beads), and a glaive_ (sword).
A popular practice for fans of Okami is to draw what one would assume a {{amaterasu_(ookami) personification|human Amaterasu would look like}}. Many variations exist.
She has a son, Chibiterasu, who is the protagonist of Ookamiden.
