**Kaya Saimori** (斎森 香耶, *Saimori Kaya*?) is the second daughter of the Saimori family, the daughter to Shinichi Saimori and Kanoko Saimori and the younger half-sister of Miyo Saimori, she is engaged to Kouji Tatsuishi and she has the supernatural gift of the Saimori family, the Spirit-Sight ability that lets her see the Grotesquerie and remotely view locations by connecting her vision with a shikigami charm.

After the Kidnapping of Miyo Saimori, Kaya is sent to an ordinary household to work as a servant.

## Appearance

Kaya is a beautiful young woman with wavy waist-length blonde hair that has bangs tied back over her forehead by a pink ribbon and pink eyes.

## Personality

Kaya is a very spoiled, arrogant and emotional girl who is mentally violent towards her older half-sister Miyo Saimori and she is also rather two-faced. Despite her polite public appearance, she is rather disrespectful and nasty in her actions when she believes she can get away with it, not only towards Miyo but also towards her fiancé Kouji Tatsuishi.

Kaya oppresses her older half-sister and treats her like a doormat, even with her engagement to Kouji. She seems like the classic spoiled golden child, as she takes pride in bringing down others as her parents close their eyes or participate in her brutal behavior. Her mother Kanoko Saimori is especially bad at this, by allowing Kaya's spoiled streak and berating her whenever she commits a mistake; it can be said that she is partially to blame for Kaya's cruelty.

Kaya is also marked by her deep envy of Miyo. She is so jealous regarding her half-sister that whatever good things Miyo ever gets, Kaya feels she must have it too or steal it away. As such, when she sees Kiyoka Kudou and learns he and Miyo get along well, she immediately decides to do everything in her power to force Miyo to break off the engagement and to become the bride of Kiyoka.

Unfortunately, she becomes humiliated and frustrated after Kiyoka rejects her, by telling her he will never marry an arrogant woman like her. After her family ends up in ruin, she lost her confidence.

## History

Kaya was born to Shinichi Saimori and Kanoko Saimori roughly three years after her eldest half-sister, Miyo Saimori.

## Abilities

* **Spirit-Sight**: Kaya possesses this common ability that the majority of the Gifted are born with. It allows her to see the Grotesqueries, creatures invisible to normal humans. As a woman, however, she hadn’t been expected to battle Grotesqueries herself, so she’d never much cared about mastering paranormal crafts.

* **Familiar technique**: Kaya is also able to manipulate familiars, a supernatural technique that anyone with the Spirit-Sight is capable of learning. It allows her to construct familiars from paper and conjure it for tracking down a target. Kaya uses this ability to locate her older half-sister Miyo Saimori in the Imperial Capital.

* **Share-Sight**: Kaya is able to use this ability to see through the eyes of the familiar she constructed to spy on Miyo.

## Trivia

* We don’t know if she and her parents learned that Sumi sealed Miyo’s power : Dream-Sight who scared the Emperor for a long time.
