Name: Typhoid Mary, real name unknown
Age: Somewhere between twenty-five and thirty-five
Height: 5'10"
Species: Human, though some would beg to differ.
Occupation: A member of The Hand, specifically Kirigi's team.
Body Alterations: One piercing in each ear.
Hair: Jet black and long, some of it kept up on the top.
Eyes: Black, and unusually large.
Build: Tall, slender, and graceful, Typhoid does not necessarily look muscular, but lithe, almost like a dancer rather than fighter.
Clothing, Jewelry, etc.: Typhoid wears either a black, form fitting outfit - sometimes long sleeved, sometimes sleeveless - or a kimono and short, Japanese style dress.
Personality: Typhoid Mary is a, dark, individual. Twisted, sadistic, and cruel, she has been tainted by Kirigi and The Hand after being taken in by them when she was "The Treasure." Her power has made her become obsessed with pain, suffering, death, and despair. She preys upon the innocent during her free time, and likes to play "games" where she visits ruined villages and spreads her disease among them, especially the children. She sees it as freeing them, but she does take wicked pleasure out of it as well. She is loyal to Kirigi, not The Hand, though she enjoys spending time on her own when not needed by Kirigi. Typhoid is distant from the others of Kirigi's group for the most part, though she has been known to hover around Tattoo every so often.
Powers: Typhoid Mary's name comes from her particular, power. Her touch and her breath are poisonious, deadly. Anything alive that she touches dies, although humans take long, drawn out touches and strong beings can recover though it may take time. Her touch has little affect on vampires or werewolves, but it can cause them to become sick for a short period of time. She also has heightened senses from her training under Kirigi, and fast reflexes and can move incredibly quickly.
Abilities: Typhoid hardly ever fights, but that doesn't mean she can't. Kirigi has trained her in a few, exceptionally vicious fighting styles, mainly with her knife and hand to hand combat. He has also trained her to use "kimagure."
Weaponry: Typhoid carries only one weapon on her person - a combat knife usually strapped to her calf.
History: Almost all of Typhoid Mary's history is known only to herself, Kirigi, and his father, Roshi. Much of it is forgotten by her, whether by her own choice is something only the three of them know. She was once thought to be "The Treasure," and ended up being taken in by Kirigi and The Hand instead of by a group known as The Chaste. Her potential was darkened and twisted and manifested as her power to kill with a touch or a breath - though she cannot control this and is unable to be touched even should she ever want to be. Lately though, The Hand has come to believe she is not to true Treasure, and Typhoid has grown bitter and sunk deeper into her unstable state of mind. She cares for nothing except Kirigi and Tattoo, though very few know what loyalties she owes towards the other member of Kirigi's team.
