Hatsukaze

**Hatsukaze** (**ハツカゼ**) for most of the story, called Yatagarasu-Child (**ヤタガラス族の子供**) is a Yatagarasu and minor recurring character in the Online Games.

Unable to talk, she communicates with gestures, until the story is progressed enough, that she is considered an adult, and gains also her normal name. She is the younger sister of Minasaki.

## Personality

She is a very confident demon but total pushover, similar to her sister, she is rather silly and childish overall.

Hatsukaze is good friends with her sister and Lilim. Had trouble with Fuuma Tokiko constant nagging.

Loves shiny things, and at times gets lost, as she follows people. When she is able to talk, she just like Minasaki is overconfident and calls Fuuma Kotaro (TABA) her subject. However, willing to fight and also quick to give up and ask for forgiveness. Regardless, nobody can get mad at her, as she also calls herself "the cute little sister" and "super awesome". In RPGX continuities, she befriends Clear Lobel and Mizuki Yukikaze, and is looked after by Tokirai Zenki.

## Appearance

She is a young girl with pink short hair and pink eyes. She has Yatagarasu wings.

## History

### Background

Only called the "Yatagarasu Child" at first, Hatsukaze is the younger sister of Minasaki and was born in the Demon Realm.

Hatsukaze, when she has her bird head, is not considered an adult and, only has a poison beak to defend herself, unable to speak the human language. Depending on the timeline and state the story is at, she gains the ability to turn her head more human with her adulthood and gains her name, "Hatsukaze". She showed some interest in the Human World, after her sister left to that realm, together with Lilim, hanging around Fuuma Kotaro, much to his annoyance. Hatsukaze hangs around with Minasaki and Lilim, often begging or freeloading but is considered cute, so people allow it.

### Timeline TABA

When Fuuma Kotaro (TABA) tried to exit Yomihara, year **2084**, after one of his visits to Folia. He ran into Donna Burroughs, and both began to fight, as she recklessly used her blade, both of them fell down into water and when they awoke, found themselves in the demon realm. The area was under a barrier and belonged to a lord, which enjoyed making a competition out of finding demonic incidence for his dinner. While, they still tried to understand their situation, they heard a girl scream. The Taimanin, Mizunaga Hyouka, which had investigated in Yomihara until she was caught in an earthquake, was the source of the screams. Hyouka was bothered by a Yatagarasu (Hatsukaze) in her bird form, seemingly enjoying her red cape and shiny ice arts, while Kotaro scared the Yatagarasu girl away at first, as a competition broke out between him, Donna and Hyouka, he used the Yatagarasu Child to win and go back home first.

However, the child followed Kotaro to his base back in the human realm. Afterward, she is seen always around Lilim and Minsaki, and is protected by the Fuuma Organization as a guest. Her animal form helped, at some point, to calm Igawa Sakura, which wanted to kill Fuuma Kotaro for spying on her, while preparing a valentine speech. Hatsukaze was stated to be very cute and Sakura could not make her sad by killing Kotaro.

Also befriended Amamiya Shisui on top of Lilim and Minasaki.

Her last big event, year **2086**, was when she used her detection ability to follow Kotaro, in the rescue of Luna but somehow ended in the wrong base. **Hatsukaze** had lost rock paper scissors against Minasaki and Lilim and was forced to look after Kotaro unable to change her rather silly looking bunny costume. While, in the enemy base, she ran into Kurenai. Kurenai, at this point, picked up mercenary work for the UFS, to test out some weapons, together with Makishima Ayame. Kurenai misunderstood the situation, thinking that she was part of the Rabbit Platoon and started the training with her, fighting against holograms of Fuuma Organization members. At some point, Miranda Camilo arrived, the real test partner which just had overslept. Nobody really was convinced that **Hatsukaze** was all that bad, even after their found out she was in fact of the Fuuma Organization. However, a small group of Oboro's men attacked the base using Cloaking technology. However, because of **Hatsukaze**, Yatagarasu powers she could detect any enemies and Kurenai, Miranda and Ayame defeated the attackers. As Hatsukaze used that chance to escape as well. Kurenai battled Miranda as a final weapon test and Kurenai won in a few blows, both Ayame and Kurenai later left the UFS job, feeling good and refreshed.

Back at home, she complained with Minasaki and Lilim returning with Mochi, for the Luna welcome back party. As they wanted to theme it around the moon, and the legend of the "rabbit making mochi on the moon".

### Timeline RPGX

Came to the Human Realm on her own, in the year **2083**, she was captured in one of the dark cities. However, the Independent Commando Unit of Fuuma Kotaro rescued her, this lead to a small conflict with Lina, which could be resolved.

For protection, she was allowed to live in the Fuuma Estate for some time. However, couldn't handle the constant nagging of Fuuma Tokiko and started to live in the Mizuki Mansion instead, after Clear Lobel was already allowed to stay. She enjoys the constant spoiling of Tokirai Zenki, and is known as one of the two freeloaders of the place but are considered almost family by Mizuki Yukikaze, as she felt otherwise alone. Clear and Hatsukaze became friends, regardless of Hatsukaze's inability to speak, and often explore Gosha Village together.

Joined the Independent Rangers on a rescue mission in Rollo Viscounty. In the year **2086**, had a snowball fight with Lilim and Minasaki. The next year, **2087**, they fought again but Lilim tried to cheat and summoned, by mistake, the Snowfiend and later Donder.
