Kamakura Shio

**Kamakura Shio** (鎌倉 詩桜, *Kamakura Shiō*) is one of the 5 main characters of **Kaitō no Sōzō-sei**. Shio is the only member of the Phantom Creathieves that is not part of the student council. She enjoys reading books and aspires to become a successful writer and write stories about mystery. Her special ability is being able to see in the dark, which, accompanied by her dark attire, makes her the sneakiest member of the gang.

Her favourite colour is black as it represents elegance.

## Background

Shio is a second year student at Sentama Gakuen. Her looks attract many guys inside and outside the school, and even some girls. She has an almost hourglass kind of figure with large breasts. Throughout the story, she has been and remains single, simply because she doesn't want to rush a relationship as it may become complicated in the long run, but the true reason lies in her being a Phantom Creathief.

In the crime world, Shio is dubbed the "Black Widow" due to her nature, being able to seduce any guy (even girl), but since killing is against the Phantom Creathieves' codex, she uses this technique in order to request information that they're seeking, or simply as a distraction so that the remaining members can work in peace in order to steal something important from the victim. Afterwards, she never interacts with their victims ever again. Besides seducing, she's very sneaky herself. Her dark attire (mostly in grey with the exception of hair and stockings) and the ability to see in the dark well attribute to that statement.

During first year of high school, Shio was voted the student council president and has proven to be reliable in various situations that needed to be addressed. Unfortunately, her mandate didn't last too long. She was voted off before the end of the school year because Shio refused to tone down her inappropriate speech which caused some members of the council to feel uneasy. The vice president at that time was forgiving but snapped during the discussion of the following valedictorian speech which was supposed to be given by none other than Shio. In the end, not only was she banned from (re)joining the student council of the academy, but she never ended up delivering the speech.

She used to be a leader of the Phantom Creathieves, too. However, she grew tired of having to do most of the dirty work on her own, so the remaining student council members (and at the same time Phantom Creathieves) have devised a student council president title raffle (in agreement with the vice, of course) in order to fill in the empty spot that Shio left behind.

She's elegant in nature and respected in Izumi's gang, but sometimes can be too hasty and decide on behalf of every other member, sometimes even alluding to the fact that she used to be the leader and that she's still in a higher position than a vice is, despite Izumi being the leader. This can create slight misunderstandings.

She's also a talented writer, but hasn't got much recognition mostly due to how she was involved in the meeting drama and thus only has a few active readers of her work. Fortunately, the numbers are increasing with each new story she writes, and hopes to become a bestseller writer. Being a phantom thief, she also hopes to finally branch out into the mystery genre and write her own novel that is based around the adventures of the Phantom Creathieves. Currently, she writes action and mostly romance.

## Appearance

As a Phantom Creathief, she wears a grey skirt and shirt with a black collar. She often wears brown shoes but during heists she prefers to wear black ones. Besides the black shoes, she also has a black domino mask and a grey hat with a black pattern and a white heart which represents her purity (or the lack thereof). She has black hair and grey eyes.

She also wears the standard Sentama Academy uniform for girls consisting of a white blouse, black jacket, black bow tie, a brown belt, a grey-to-black skirt which go a bit over her knees and brown shoes. She almost always puts on black knee high socks.
