Seemingly Sh'ten's replacement after the Oni Demon General's defection, she is known as the Demon Priestess (or Princess), and is an even nastier fighter than the other Demon Generals. She seems to have been a member of Kaos' clan and was one of those who was being trained to defend Earth from Arago and his ilk about 400 years ago. She was captured at the age of 5 and brain-washed by the Demon Lord; the gold-colored chest plate she wears keeps her under Arago's thumb. When it is destroyed in one of her battles with Ryo, her mind is freed and she eventually joins the battle against the Demon Lord. (When Kayura turns back to good, her voice goes up somewhat. This is a convention adapted from Kabuki theater, where, when a good character turns to evil, their voices become deeper and lower.) When she initially appears, she is accompanied by the vision of wisteria blossoms and petals. Her weapons are twin jitte - the jitte a much older cousin to the sai. Instead of the central rod we're familiar with in the sai, this ancient form of jitte has a slender two-edged sword blade.
