Personality
Ease your fear, elevate. Lay with me and close your eyes
Tsukiko is mostly a chill, easy-going girl with a soft smile on her face most of the time when she's interacting with others; in a nutshell, she goes with the flow.
She's the type of girl who doesn't bother getting into conflicts; she'll try to avoid them as much as possible and just keep with her business a trait of her personality that comes from her different reincarnations; even if she can't remember all, the knowledge accumulated in different lives kept in her soul, making her a wise companion and a cold, calm fighter.
It doesn't mean that, sometimes, she can act childish or impulsive. Specially when she feels pushed to the verge of her tolerance. Also, she's quite the chaotic type, never saying 'no' to a good sparring.

π Past
Tsukiko was born during the Heian era as the youngest daughter of a noble family with strong ties to the goddess Inari; early at her childhood she was send to train to become a Shrine Maiden under onmyΕji Tadatomo guidance, meeting Hao and Daitaro in the process.
She found her death following the dark plans of her father after Hao was given his name by the Emperor as the new onmyΕji. During her last moments, she made a deal with the goddess Inari: 500 years on hell (as a way to demonstrate her strength and purify her soul due to the path her father had sealed her) to be granted the change to reincarnate as many times needed to accomplish her wish.
π Present
In the actual and final cycle of reincarnation, Tsukiko started wandering the world at the early age of 10 years old, protected and guided by her Spirit Ally.With no clear clues of whom she was looking for, she entered the Shaman Fight with Kalim as her Patch Officiant; she would soon reunite with Hao under curious circumstances, deciding to join his team instead of Opacho, later being trained by him; though, she is not interested in the fight.
At the end of the manga/anime, she chose to stay with Hao inside the Great Spirit.
