Izumo Tsuru

**Tsuru** Izumo (出雲　**鶴**) or Sago Tsuru, is a Taimanin and daughter of Sago Bungo (Library) and Izumo Kinu.

She is the personal maid of Fuuma Kotaro, in Taimanin RPGX.

## Personality

Tsuru came out of a traumatic situation but regained her cold battle sense and recovered thanks to her willpower. In a way, a lesser Yandere-type which is very sweet to Kotaro but overall antagonistic towards anybody getting in her way.

Soft-spoken, polite and elegant when talking to Kotaro.

She shifts strongly depending on who she is dealing with, and often goes into extremes, willing to kill herself if she could not become Fuuma Kotaro maid after her rescue. As a maid, she often takes over the tasks of Fuuma Amane and Fuuma Tokiko. Because of her dedication also tried to sneak into Kotaro's bath at times, and when told not to do so by the other butlers clicked her tongue in responds. Wears her maid clothes, all the time and is very dedicated and strict with herself, sometimes viewing herself a bit too much as a tool.

If anybody badmouths Kotaro, she loses all constrain. Tsuru views romantic rivals, badly and does not hold back, calling Mizuki Yukikaze, "tiny tits" and Onisaki Kirara "thieving cat" or mentions the breaking of spines. She also had attacked Inage Natsu in the past and had a poor relationship with her, as she would critic Kotaro. Regardless Tsuru, has become a close friend with Shishimura Koro and Homare Nao, and she is able to joke with them at times.

Her mother's dictum and motto is "Pay back double for revenge, and pay back a hundred times for a favor." -and she lives by it as well. Though she has distant herself from her father, she shares many of his trades, both are often terrible when it comes to personal things and struggle to converse and talk to each other. In their youth, her father Library also was often viewed as rather harsh, just as she now is at times. Both struggle to connect after their past, but in recent events both have become closer. Tsuru wishes to be spoiled by her father and wished to call him dad once more, which she was able to do in recent events. Her father struggles the same to talk with her, but also shows concern for her harsh personality and hopes he can talk to her father to daughter to calm her a bit.

Tsuru was always against her father's old ideology of blindly following Fuuma Danjo and those that approved the Fuuma Revolt of Danjo, and will vehemently reject any current new attempt of such a thing. These days, she wishes to connect to her father more and wishes to be sometimes spoiled by him, and calls him dad once more.

After a vacation event with her father, she is able to reconnect and makes an effort to be less antagonistic to other people. More recent, interactions with Inage Natsu have strongly improved with her putting her life on the line for her and others.

## Appearance

## History

A Taimanin of the Fuuma clan, daughter of Sago Bunko and Izumo Kinu, her father later became known as the Cyborg Taimanin, Library.

When, she was young, her father took part in the Fuuma Revolt, year **2068**, of Fuuma Danjo, but even after the death of Danjo never returned to Tsuru and instead became a Rogue Taimanin and joined Task Force G as a Danjo Loyalists. Hating the ideology and father, which had separated and destroyed her family, she took her late mother's surname.

She remained in Gosha Village and Gosha Academy, for the next years. When another, loyalist group within Gosha Village, the Nisha Ninja Troops, tried to repeat the rebellion, but Tsuru refused to join them. However, in the chaos of these events, **2082**, she became the target of the mysterious serial killer active in Gosha.

Not killed but captured and tortured, losing her limbs, many people including her father thought she had died in the new rebellion, which resulted in him changing his mind and returning to Gosha to visit her grave, in the year 2083, and became the cyborg Library to remain hidden.

Tsuru herself spend years in the basement of Saito Hanjiro, with the bother of the serial killer, Saito Hanzo, not stopping these events. Giving up on life, and wishing for her own death almost, she lost her limbs and was tortured. However, unlike other victims, remained defiant enough that Hanjiro found interest in her.

When, the Independent Rangers investigated the Saito Residence, year **2084**, in their search for the killer, they found the basement, first encountering the killer which was hiding within the body of one of his victims **Asai Miori**, before bursting out and revealing he had transformed a number of corpses into Demi Humans, as well as revealed Tsuru was still alive, even if she was unconscious in a gruesome decorative state. In their battle against Hanjiro, his detonation powers failed shortly, and he was frozen and killed by Onisaki Kirara and Fuuma Kotaro.

Tsuru was recovered and could and healed back to health. She was given an artificial replacement Prosthesis, that she could control with her ability afterward. Recovering once more in Gosha Village, she learns of the Kotaro's activities after the rebellion, and volunteers to be the Kotaro's personal maid, after the death of the serial killer. Kotaro refuses at first but given her state of mine she states that she will take her own life if she can't repay him, and is taken in by the Fuuma Estate, much to the frustration of Fuuma Tokiko.

Tsuru is his personal maid, and will often take over for Tokiko, regardless of her approval of that fact. When "Bungo" now called Library, also becomes a servant of Kotaro, and learns that she is still alive, he keeps his distance to Tsuru without revealing himself out of shame and fear but in truth, he wanted to become her guardian from the distance. At some point Tsuru reveals that she knew all along and their interactions are rare but improve.

At some point, Tsuru faced the brother of Hanjiro, Saito Hanzo, which joined the Igawa Revolt Group and attacked Gosha Village. Backed up by her father, that allowed her to fight on her own, she killed Hanzo as well, with her and Library reconciling afterward.

Tsuru is later seen in a short event attacking Inage Natsu, when Natsu is impolite to Kotaro but knocked away by the old lady. Otherwise, Tsuru continues her work as a maid and at times joins the Independent Rangers.

She was given the vacation ticked for Atami, that Fuuma Kotaro won in the battle between Juno and Dakini, in the year **2087**. In the hope that she and Library could relax and also connect, both were given a forced vacation, with Shishimura Koro and Homare Nao coming with them to make it less awkward. Tsuru wished to take her maid clothes but was forced last minute by Kotaro to use normal clothes. While, both struggled at first to talk about their feelings and the past, after Library recalled his meeting with his wife Kinu, he and his daughter talked for the first time for a while as father and daughter.

As they returned, Nao, **Izumo Tsuru** and Shishimura Koro had grown much closer. In the **August** of that year, around the time of the Obon Festival in Maesaki City. The group investigated a "bloody prank", Shimizu Kanna, which worked part-time as a festival planner, together with the office worker Tanahashi came back to see a blood covered room, speaking of a demon. While the public, thought this was a prank as it was only animal blood the festival would happen regardless but Igawa Asagi was worried, and told the group of Nao to ask Inage Natsu for information. **Izumo Tsuru** also joined, worried over her last interaction with Inage. Inage, recalled the Festival Demon was the Doumeki, which she had defeated and left for dead **30** years ago. Thinking, he might have returned, but used some undercover human disguise, the entire group went undercover to the Obon Festival, using Kanna as bait. As stated by Inage, the blood was only something the demon did to create fear and better taste in the marked victim. While Kanna, was busy dancing with an old man, fog started to fill the entire area, and the group was separated. While at first they suspected Tanahashi, to be the demon in disguise, Nao realized because of his strange behavior that he was leading the group away, from the center. Suspecting, that he was only meant to be a distraction possibly blackmailed to do so, Nao was too late, as Inage Natsu and **Izumo Tsuru**, were captured by the mysterious fog of the demon. Doumeki, revealed itself and slashed at Inage, which was his real target. Both Tsuru and Inage fought the demon together but struggled against his powerful illusions, Inage was hurt by one of its attacks, and things looked bad but Nao was able to fire a light attack from outside the illusion fog, destroying the weapon which could cast it. Nao, using even more of his light magic, blinded the monster and Tsuru was able to kill it with multiple slashes until nothing remained. Tsuru, rushed to Inage, to heal her wounds but is told she will recover and is thanked deeply for killing the demon which also had killed some of Inage's allies in the past. The next days, Koro, **Izumo Tsuru** and Homare Nao had become much closer and went to a fire works festival together. While, Kotaro had his own plans, and looked after Tsuru, he was suprised that for the first time Tsuru had planned something outside of her main duty as a maid she was so obsessed with and without him.
