Shiki_Ryougi

Shiki Ryougi is a girl who possesses the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, a supernatural ability that allows the user to see the inherent mortality of everything (both living and non-living) in the form of lines. She assists the Garan no Do agency in handling paranormal cases when combat is required.

Shiki’s family, the Ryougi, are or were members of the Demon Hunter Organization. Their special skill involves creating two separate and distinct personalities within themselves. When a child is born, he or she is given a single name written in two different Kanji, each one relating to each personality. Shiki has an older brother, however he was unable to manifest a second personality within himself, thus making him ineligible to succeed as the head of the family.

Shiki’s family had effectively retired from the task of demon hunting, becoming a family similar to the Tohnos, in that they remained wealthy landowners. In this case, they own a large Japanese-style mansion with a grove of bamboo beyond the outer wall. Due to Shiki’s success in manifesting her second persona and her older brother’s inability to do so, she was chosen as the next head of the family and began training to do so.

With her Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, she can see the points and lines of a target’s death. A cut along any line will bifurcate the object, no matter the sharpness of cutting tool used, and ultimately destroy the object’s origin, causing instant death. Her abilities extend to cutting things with no physical existence.

Once active, Shiki acquires irides that are outlined in red and all 7 prismatic colors shimmer within the irides, blue being the dominant color.
