Suigetsu (水月, Water Moon) is a log-keeper, a person whose eyes and mind have been remade specifically to record seemingly unlimited amounts of information.[1] She is the most important log-keeper employed by The Shadow Organization, because she has kept records since its founding and has served both co-founders, so she safeguards secrets that no other single person in the organization is aware of.[2] But since the Sousui has invaded her mind, he most likely knows everything that she does.
Appearance
Suigetsu has long, black hair, usually kept in three braids that reach just past her waist. However, when untied, her hair is longer than she is tall. As with all log-keepers, her eyes bear a design similar to a compass.
Personality
Suigetsu is a kind, calm, cautious person. Though she is an unwilling participant in the Sousui's plans, she does her best never to draw his wrath. She is usually entrusted with caring for and teaching any young children in the Sousui's service, such as Haruka. Hiura Souji remembers her fondly.
History
Suigetsu was born in Ryusenkyo (龍仙境), a land known for producing people with ayakashi blood, and upon meeting the Sousui (who was inhabiting yet another body), agreed to become his wife. They traveled the world together, and found a gathering of ability users. Leading them was Tsukihisa, who used his stronger psychic powers to overwrite the Sousui's memories, giving him the identity of Nichinaga Oumi.[3] Suigetsu spent a great deal of time in Tsukihisa's service (most likely under his mind control), during which her body was altered in order to make her a log-keeper, and memories concerning her husband were erased. At some point she returned to the Sousui's side, primarily to seek revenge on Tsukihisa for using her, though she likely had no idea how far the Sousui intended to pursue that revenge for her sake.[4] She appears to have spent a great deal of time with Souji, teaching him to write his name and reassuring his doubts about his humanity.
Plot
At the Sousui's Side
Suigetsu at first appears to be the personal attendant of the Sousui, addressing him as her master. She is revealed to have worked in the Shadow Organization's Records Office, and to have been an acquaintance of Okuni, the destruction and murder of which only seem to bother her slightly. She makes a small attempt to stop the Sousui's further plans of destroying the organization, but he responds by saying it is his creation to destroy, and that she will be the last person he kills.[5] She later updates him on the status of the children they are using as kekkaishi, and asks if she can rest until the planned Karasumori attack. He warns her not to try and stop him.[6]
