home? back?

welcome to the deeper explanation of 'kaamu'. theres gonna be five sections titled the following:

  • collective section.
  • kaamu herself section.
  • tsuranashi himself section.
  • biological section.
  • special ability section.

ill try and put them in an order that helps it make sense. bear with me while i explain what is quite a confusing and complex character to the best of my abilities.


collectively,

kaamu and tsuranashi are two sixteen year old conjoined twins, born 13th of october, 1940, and an unknown death - sometime in 1956. never meeting their parents, kaamu was abandoned as a child, seemingly for their freakish appearance. kaamu doesn't allow her brother to 'share' her birthday, and so he would celebrate his "birthday" on the first on january each year. kaamu has bright, almost glowing blue eyes, wheras her brother has much more a pale, muted blue colour for his pupils, that is, when they are visible. kaamu is much more the 'known' part of them, her voice leading conversations, her footsteps leading the way. to others, they collectively are known as kaamu. eg. "kaamu's gonna be at the dinner later," "kaamu's walking towards us." her brother does not usually speak, and alot of people are not sure why. he is completely able to speak, but seems to avoid it through a fear of his sister. behind closed doors, he will speak, or make an attempt to. the only people who have heard his voice are ninda, hitari and mushimae. most people assume he is nothing more then an empty shell attached to her back.


biologically,

kaamu is conjoined to her brother in a way no other twins are. they have complete sets of bodies and organs, just like anyone else. their attachment comes with an extra organ that they share between them. without a doctor or a family to help them understand what is going on with their bodies, kaamu simply labelled this organ as the "menlial line." this organ has a tube shaped surface, that expands and envelops the back more when stretched(when one of them tries to walk in the opposite direction to the other, or if they fall eg eg. the menlial line can stretch up to about two meters, before it solidifies and freezes both of them in place. the menlial line not only acts as an organ to connect the two bodies, but the nerves from each of their bodies connect into it, and forms a type of pain link thats quite weird to explain, so ill just give you an example. if kaamu herself was to set her arm against a hard surface, take a brick and smash it down on her arm, pushing it down with all her strength, here is what would happen.

for kaamu, of course her arm and skin is broken, shes bleeding, she can hear the cracking and crunching of the bone underneath the brick, and she can feel the liquids oozing out, but she cannot actually feel any pain. it doesn't hurt her, doesnt send those electrical impulses to her brain that would immediatly try to remove her arm from the pain.

for tsuranashi, he would look down to his arm and see absolutely nothing wrong, no bleeding, no scars, nothing. but the pain he would be experiencing would be unbearable, the exact pain that his sister should be experiencing currently.

now lets say we've reversed the roles, and tsuranashi himself decides to hold his hand over a fire.

for kaamu? nothing.

for him? normal pain of holding your hand over a fire purposefully. poor guy

so in conclusion, kaamu is unable to feel physical pain, in every situation but one. when the menlial line is stretched to capacity, it sends a shooting pain up her spine, and through her whole body, a sharp, stabbing pain.


special abilities.

kaamu herself has some special abilities unlike her brother. she has skill in levitation, inducing death, manifestation, and weather/shadow manipulation/manifestation. with the weather manifestion, it very much depends on the circumstance. dont get any crazy ideas in your head, like randomly being able to make snowstorms out of nowhere-let me explain. lets say its lightly raining, she can make the rain more intense, and manifest the movement of water (eg, splashing you with rain water collected telekinetically from the ground / air. she cannot do this without the weather being in her favour. if it snows, she could do things such as condense the snow into forming little creatures, and such as. with shadow manipulation, it's much more functional. kaamu can condense shadows into anything, as long as there are enough shadows around for her to condense them. when i say anything i mean anything. a teapot, a knife, a joint, a car. kaamu also uses her shadow manifestation for a more grandiose purpose. being quite extravagant, she likes to use the shadow behind her to dramatically play how she feels while talking; to herself or others.


kaamu herself,

kaamu is what would nowadays be labelled as a 'transgender girl' she takes interest in her boyfriend - mushimae, the cold, taxidermy, writing (usually with hitari), spending time with tentten, 'saving' with takaniki and hitari, cutting up her brothers clothes - either for fun or to use the cloth for some kind of nasty prank, burning, and horror movies.

kaamu is quite a sharp person, she's arrogant, and couldnt care less what happens as long as she gets what she wants. she has 'claimed' the thirteenth of october as her birthday, under the claim that, "it's my day, because its me they're celebrating."

her patience is short, and her temper is easily risen. she has no want to care for or be kind to people, though she takes pleasure in being kind in public, and acting like the nicest person in the world to anyone who likes her, (which is everyone.) she doesn't enjoy the kindness, simply enjoys the way she is seen by others.


tsuranashi himself,
