Ryōbi

== Summary ==
Ryōbi (両備) is a shinobi student of Hebijo Clandestine Girls' Academy and the twin sister of Ryōna. Ryōbi is a serious sadist that is motivated to hurt people, especially Ryōna. She is shown to have a sensitive nature when other people mention her deceased older sister Ryōki, to which she reacts emotionally. Despite her sadistic nature, she has been shown to display compassion towards those she hurts, and with deep regret, such as when she accidentally shot Murasaki and pushed aside feelings of guilt when she had to beat Imu to get to Miyabi.
Ryōbi and Ryōna were initially enrolled in Gessen Girls' Academy, the same school their older sister attended. However, they soon learned that Miyabi, the shinobi they thought had accidentally killed their sister, had awakened from her coma. They devised a plan to defect to Hebijo so they could gain the trust of Miyabi and, when the moment was right, get their revenge by killing her.
After a plethora of unpleasant fighting and explanations, they soon realized that it was, in fact, not Miyabi who had killed their sister. In spite of all that had happened, Ryōbi and Ryōna stayed in attendance at Hebijo, and remain two of Miyabi's most dependable and valuable allies.
