**Kaworu** Tekkain (鉄華院 **カヲル**) is a Rogue Taimanin.

She is a former member of the Nisha family, subservient of the Fuuma clan, because of disagreements with her father, she left and formed the separate Tekkain clan. Depending on continuity, she is the warden of the Amidahara Prison and manager of Black Rose.

## Personality

Kaworu is a mature woman, that doesn't get shy easily and doesn't mind showing off her sexuality.

She views herself as smart and can be slightly arrogant, but has the experience for it. As a neutral law type character, she values order and justice, but does reject the views of her old clan and of Gosha Village. Kaworu values her independence and the freedom of her brother and sister to decide on their own. Unlike, her father Tekkain Bantetsu, that would use others like pawns to be thrown away and never valued their freedom to choose.

She values a level of neutrality and can be reasonable even with demons, as long as they act somewhat lawful. Kaworu is also willing to defend her friends with her life. Kaworu can become merciless towards those she deems unworthy or evil, and is feared in the underworld. As she remains neutral towards Gosha, she does not work with Igawa Asagi and will resist any attempt of Taimanin that try to snoop around her prison.

In Action Taimanin she views Fuuma Kotaro, as her young master and mothers him slightly. While in RPGX, Kotaro, is still scared of her from back in the day. In TABA both seem not to know each other, and she attacks him often for his Fuuma Organization.

## History

### Background

Kaworu was a Taimanin of the Nisha family, of the Fuuma clan.

She belonged to a branch or "sub-clan" of the Nisha the Tekkain family, which under her is more neutral. A former executive thanks to her father, Tekkain family head Tekkain Bantetsu, a long time Fuuma Danjo loyalist. Kaworu was somebody that Fuuma Kotaro feared in his youth, mostly as she could be strict, depending on timeline Kotaro also has some positive memories of her.

She is a very close friend with Kanzaki Junbei and still has contact with him. During the time of the Fuuma Revolt, year **2068**, the young but very skilled Kaworu became bothered by the constant violent fights between Fuuma clan and Igawa clan. Wishing for peace, she realized how her father viewed his own clan and family members only as sacrificial pawns. After an argument, Bantetsu started to view Kaworu as a traitor and tried to murder her, she escaped from both the Fuuma Village and Gosha Village. With him sending clan members after her, Kaworu was shortly captured, and tortured for some days, but was able to strangle her captors with her Ninja Art. As the head of the Nisha clan died, many assumed she had died as well.

Afterward, Kaworu tried to live in Yomihara, ⁣but the city was much more rough during that time, and she was only able to eat thanks to her work in the club "Bella" (later Black Rose). The orc owner also valuing neutrality, was quick to notice her skill and hired her as a bodyguard against criminals that often tried to break in. Avoiding her sleazy but otherwise goodhearted boss and being somewhat supported by the second in command "Falx", Kaworu's abilities became known. Astaroth, made a quick visit to Black Rose hoping to find a strong man to fight but was disappointed to just see a young girl, kinda tricked into working for the club Astaroth remained a little longer to look for strong opponents and both became friendly with each other. Her former boss was killed by Falx, which blamed it on Kaworu, but Astaroth and Kaworu uncovered the truth and fought back against Falx. Astaroth killed Falx, and with both superiors gone, Kaworu claimed and renamed the club into Black Rose to gain more power and influence. Astaroth returned to the Burning Plains but would visit from time to time, even if Kaworu was a woman, as she gained some respect from her.

Later on, Kaworu became the warden of Amidahara Prison. This female only prison, in Amidahara, remained neutral between Human World and Dark World. As it both held criminal Rogue Taimanin and demons, Kaworu became the ideal option for more stability. As a Rogue Taimanin herself, she remains neutral in most cases but has been seen depending on continuity to join some sides or fight others. Furthermore, her father Tekkain Bantetsu is killed or injured by Sago Bunko years after the revolt of Fuuma Danjo.

### Timeline TABA

Somewhat unclear on details. Kaworu is still mentioned as part of the Nisha clan and was presumed dead by Kotaro. Just like other versions, she is not part of Gosha Village or Fuuma Danjo's Task Force G side.

Kaworu had connections with Astaroth and asked her to check on Kotaro, resulting in Astaroth's attack on one of his hideouts.

Kaworu views Kotaro, as the next leader of the Fuuma clan after he killed his father. However, thinks he is too weak and wishes to take over his Fuuma Organization herself. Attacking him with the help of Valentia and Kia Maleek, she is able to capture him for the duration of multiple events. Her group is taken apart by the other members of the Fuuma Organization and she was almost killed in their battle. Kotaro requests that she rethinks his weakness and asks her to join, she scoffs at him and retreated for now.

Her ability is also at some point taken by Fuuma Kotaro and used on other events. At the final battle, she is seen together with Fuuma Saika, though she is not part of the Fuuma Organization, she states that she wants to see how far Kotaro is able to come in her fight with Black and in a sense this is the Nisha clan role to serve the Fuuma clan.

### Timeline RPGX

Most of her background details are added in RPGX.

As the warden of Amidahara Prison, some of her prisoners include Igawa Senshu and the recently captured Yufie & Sofie, which had escpaed the UFS. During the Nisha Gaiza revolt, year 2082, she remained neutral and refused to join his Nisha Ninja Troops.

In the year **2083**, a mission of the Independent Commando Unit, forces Kotaro to sneak into Amidahara Prison to recover Uehara Shikanosuke, which had been captured on a mission. On his way, he also took, Yufie & Sofie and Minasaki, while being disguised as Onisaki Kirara. Kaworu, fought during this event against Akiyama Rinko and damaged her blade slightly with her chains. The group was able to escape, leaving Kaworu behind rather frustrated, as she learned Fuuma was involved.

Another event this year, sees Kaworu invited to talks held by Task Force G of the UFS, in Yomihara. Other more neutral forces like, her old friend Kanzaki Junbei and assassin Yuri also join the talks. The "Phantom Witch" also partakes for the Incubus/Succubus Tribes. However, as G makes its plans to take over Yomihara clear and displays clear arrogance towards the other factions under commander Sirene, talks break down and Kaworu returns home.

In the year **2084**, the prisoner Taro the White Bear caused minor trouble in the prison, taken in as an exception after a drunk brawl in the city. Payment for his damages, was supposed to be provided by Torajiro, which had trouble herself reaching Kaworu. Taro, had been made drunk on purpose by secret agents of the Internal Affairs Bureau, which used that chance to free Igawa Senshu, as the beastman bear once again was drunk in prison. One of the agents of the Affaris Bureau, Miranda Closet, confronted Kaworu herself, which was able to tell that Miranda was in fact her father, Tekkain Bantetsu in a new host body.

A member of the Nisha Ninja Troops, the high ranking Dobashi Gonza, often visits her Black Rose club in Yomihara, to meet women or hear stories about the city. Though the group opposes Gosha as a minor terror group, Kaworu has no conflict with them and allows this.

### Timeline Action

Kaworu leaves the Nisha clan, Fuuma clan as well as Gosha. She acts as a neutral independent Rogue Taimanin and became the Vice Warden of Amidahara Prison, in the abandoned city of Amidahara.

This version timeline, including the prison raid and possibly even more of the events of RPGX. Additionally, her sister, Tekkain Koharu, is mentioned, which is in good contact with her but still lives in Gosha Village.

Kaworu is frustrated by the prison raids, and angry at Kotaro, that he had not tried a more direct approch and just talked to her, she still is in contact with him but could not answer any recent letters. At the next new year, her sister Tekkain Koharu decided to solve the conflict between the two, as Kaworu is rather sad about the situation. Koharu invited Fuuma Kotaro, Fuuma Saika and Fuuma Tokiko to the party in Amidahara Prison, writing a letter as her sister. However, was not fully aware that this years party featured most of the underworld, which was still hostile towards Fuuma. As Kaworu was suprised to see Kotaro, she was forced to play off the situation, as a game for the invited underworld to hunt down Kotaro. That way, she was able to keep face and allowed Kotaro to escape. Yufie & Sofie, which were under the protection of Gosha, learned of the letter and made their way to the party, making the matter even more dangerious. However, as the matter was solved, the group could celebrate at another party and Kaworu and Kotaro were also able to solve their issues.
