Itani Ume

I saw what you were trying to do and swear the Council will never approve the likes of you.

— Itani Ume to Umeji Tatsuya

Overview
The lone female on the League of Guardians Council. She's determined to prove that women can lead just as well as men can, and that just because she wasn't born as a yokai that she can rival anyone on the council with power and cunning—including Soujou-bou himself.
Currently dating Chikawa Eizou. She met him during the Plum Blossom Festival at the Kitano Tenmangu Shrine.

Goals

Slow down the rapid changes happening in the League. Many members are struggling to keep up.

Wants to not rely on humans, especially not Umeji—a former yakuza

Get Soujou-bou to name a second in command. She'd prefer it be herself, but she has a few other recommendations, too.

Personality

How does she act when no one is around?

makes impossible snowflakes, wonders if she should post them to instagram when she gets a phone

goes snowshoeing

reads history in the Guardian archives

has only a few close yuki onna friends

How comfortable are they in nature? What do they notice?

Very comfortable in nature, but she prefers the snowy mountain peaks.

She notices water, clouds, winter animals, and fall coming.

How does she behave at a party?

She skirts the room and drinks a bit. She likes getting people drinks and making them cold (for the thank you). Put her in a business meeting though, she's tough as nails.

How does she behave when challenged?

She goes frigid, physically and outwardly to warn others off. She fights like a cornered cat.

How does she handle an emergency?

Quick to take charge, if needed.

She will likely help humans. But won’t if others are taking care of it or on the way.

Virtues

Patient

Willing to change her mind if given good reason

Not afraid to try new things—just don't overwhelm her with too many of them at once

Vices

Disillusioned with humanity—humans immediately assume she's going to kill them for their ki energy. Fear of that judgement has caused her to develop an eating disorder.

Quick to judge

Tends to believe gossip over a person's word

Quirks

Rarely wears modern clothes.

Wears makeup to hide her extremely pale skin

Whistles tunes when in private
