Keine Kamishirasawa, Gensokyo's Best Teacher

Personality Keine is loyal to her duties to the Human Village, both as a schoolteacher and as its guardian. As a proper teacher, she doesn't like people who are discourteous, but other than that, she is generally friendly towards humans - except, perhaps, for when she has assumed her hakutaku form. Abilities Eating and creating history Keine possesses a different ability for each of her forms. In human form, she can "eat" history, as she did in the events of Imperishable Night. Though it is stated as "eating", it is clear that she is only concealing history from outside viewers. In her hakutaku form, however, she is able to create history; she is also apparently aware of the entire history of Gensokyo in this state, according to her official profile. Hieda no Akyuu, however, states in Perfect Memento in Strict Sense that the Hieda clan's history is above Keine's powers, and is thus not "hers". Occupation Keine spends her days as a history teacher in a school in the Human Village, but also acts as its guardian, as she did in Imperishable Night. Prior to the events of Imperishable Night, Keine, being sensitive to the (full) moon herself, had felt the strange events that had taken place. As a guardian of the village, she had concealed its history to protect the inhabitants from youkai, making it seem like no village existed there in the first place. After being defeated, Keine redirected the heroines to the real culprit responsible for the false moon in the sky. Later, during the Extra Stage, Keine acts as Fujiwara no Mokou's guardian trying to prevent the player from reaching and facing Mokou. In her human form, Keine has brown eyes and long silver hair with blue highlights. She wears a hat that looks like some kind of building with a red ribbon on top and glyphs inscribed along its side. Her dress is dark blue with white short sleeves, and a red ribbon is tied to the bottom of the collar and often wears black pantyhose. In her hakutaku form she has red eyes, long silver hair with green highlights, and horns. Her left horn is decorated with a red ribbon. Keine is friends with Mokou, she worries about Mokou's health, visits her and they are often seen together in various images in the Touhou games. Hieda no Akyuu According to Akyuu, Keine has a connection to the Hieda family. Minor relationships Reimu Hakurei Keine doesn't really think Reimu is doing her job, by being inclined towards being friends with youkai rather than to serving humans.
