Trivia

Shiko's name can also be read as C-Ko; while the sound of it is a real Japanese name, the kanji she spells it with simply don't add up. This is the first clue that something is amiss with the girl. Shiko's real name is Sumiko Nakahara -- the only people who know this are those who know her whole history. Her parents believe she's dead.

Quote
"I want to remember!"

Persona Information and Resonance

"I am thou... thou art I. I am Icarus, he who shall be free. Come, fly with me, and we shall touch the sun." Icarus, the son of Daedalus, was trapped on Crete with his father. Daedalus crafted wings of wax and feathers in order for them to fly away to freedom, and he warned his son not to fly too close to the sun, nor too close to the water. But Icarus, revelling in his freedom, diverted from the path his father had set and soared up towards the heavens. The sun melted his wax, and he found himself flapping only his arms. He thus plunged down into the water and drowned. Icarus appears as a clockwork contraption in the shape of a man; his wings are bronze mechanisms. Resonance: SENSE: The tingling heat of sunlight, a sense of vertigo. SOUND: The ticking and whirring of clockwork. SMELL: The smell of hot wax.

Profile and Skills

Profile: When most people see Shiko Mori, they presume that she's a secretary with an unlucky name. She just has that "secretary" sort of aura. Perhaps it's the notepad she constantly carries around? She's a kindly, optimistic older woman who always seems to be out and about (when she isn't out of town), though it's difficult to pinpoint exactly what her job -is-. She's pretty tight-lipped about it. Maybe she's a housewife who's ashamed of her husband... Skills: Swiss-Cheese Memory, Ex-Loli Assassin, Easily Led, Remote-Controlled Villain, Clockwork Wings Clockwork Heart, Doormat Appeal, Her Name Can Also Be Read As C-Ko

0 - THE FOOL None I - THE MAGICIAN None II - THE HIGH PRIESTESS None III - THE EMPRESS None IV - THE EMPEROR None V - THE HIEROPHANT Hiroshi Tachibana (NPC) - He's been out of her life so long that Shiko doesn't think of him any more, but all she would need to remember is to see his face, hear his words. His presence is a scar born deep within her soul, and his cruelty must be satiated above all other things. Her father. Her lover. Her slaver. Her mind. VI - THE LOVERS None VII - THE CHARIOT None VIII - JUSTICE None IX - THE HERMIT None X - THE WHEEL OF FORTUNE None XI - STRENGTH Katsura Tsuruya - Traitor. KOS. XII - HANGED MAN Hideyoshi Tsukino - He's a good kid. Too bad he feels like he has to defend people at his age. Kids shouldn't have to worry about this stuff! XIII - DEATH Seiichi Miyamoto - Traitor. Sudou-sama seems to like him. Maybe just grievously wound on sight. XVI - TEMPERANCE Shion Katsuragi - Shiko once viewed Shion as a rival for Tatsuya's affections; that voice has been largely muffled by her actions. She may be Shion's senpai, but in many ways, she feels more like her kohai; Shion's taught her a lot. XV - THE DEVIL None XVI - THE TOWER Mikiya Ryouhara - She sincerely doesn't like him -- and not just because he molested her, either. They bleed the same sort of blood... Ryouma Kirisato - An old friend whom Shiko has trouble remembering. XVII - THE STAR None XIX - THE SUN Tatsuya Sudou - He possesses all of Shiko's loyalty... and her love. XX - JUDGEMENT None
