A yokai said to have been sealed underground. Her creed is to remain unidentified, and she is a prankster who enjoys watching humans tremble at the unknown.

However, upon learning that Byakuren was on the side of yokai, she regretted her actions. Impressed by Byakuren, who warmly accepted her despite the interference, she began living at Myouren Temple.
