Description:

Fifty years ago, the townspeople of Sango's village were the first to find the Shikon no Tama [Jewel of Four Souls] and gave it to Kikyou to safeguard and purify. Inuyasha came to stealit, but though Kikyou could have killed him, she decided not to out of mercy. It intrigued Inuyasha, and he began to follow her everywhere. He and Kikyou subsequently interacted a lot, and they fell in love. Naraku, using his powers to disguise himself as Inuyasha, met with Kikyou one morning after she told Inuyasha that she'd use the Shikon to turn him human. Naraku slashed at her, mortally wounding her, and successfully tricked her into thinking that Inuyasha had come to kill her and take the Shikon. Inuyasha was also tricked into thinking that Kikyou had betrayed him when Naraku took her form and shot at him. Naraku put the Shikon back in Kikyou's temple, and the real Inuyasha went after the jewel as revenge. As he was escaping with the jewel, the real Kikyou used the last of her strength to seal Inuyasha to a tree. She died moments later. Now, having been resurrected, she is living a half-life since her body cannot have the soul that's already been reincarnated in Kagome. Her body is supported by the souls of the dead, brought to her by Shinidama Chuu [Soul-Snatchers]. Personality: Kikyou seems very sad and regretful. Her "resurrected" personality is actually different from the personality she had when she was alive. Her new personality is much more bitter, and she is easily angered. Skills: Kikyou has wonderful skill with a bow, and shoots very powerful Hamaya [Purity Arrows]. Her holy powers give her a lot of resistance to Naraku's spells, and she can always defeat many Illusion or Control spells. The Shinidama Chuu are the demons that she controls.

Fifty years ago Kikyo was a priestess who guarded her village. She was the guardian of the Shikon Jewel. Before her death she imprisoned (kinda put to sleep) Inu-Yasha. When she died she was cremated along with the Jewel. She has been resurrected, but since she hated Inuyasha at the time of her death she still seeks to kill him. Kikyo is later reborn in a body made of her old bones and clay. This was made for her by a witch, who had Kagome's soul drawn out of her and then allowed it to return to Kikyo. However, shortly after Kikyo returned from the dead, her sould returned to Kagome. Now the only thing that is keeping her alive is her hate for Inuyasha. However, because her body is not real she needs to absorb the souls of other people to keep it from deteriorating.
