Appearance

Kaori carried a youthful look, with black hair brushed to one side.

One detail distinguishes how she appears after death: a line of stitches crosses her forehead horizontally, the mark left behind once Kenjaku seized her body.

Personality

Who Kaori genuinely was has gone unrecorded. With Kenjaku having taken her body, no trace of her real disposition from before that possession survives in the story, so her character stays a blank.

Abilities

It is far from settled whether Kaori qualified as a sorcerer in the first place. Nothing is documented about what she could do, and the story never clarifies if she trained in jujutsu or instead mirrored Junpei Yoshino's situation, where someone with no sorcerer aptitude carries a cursed technique yet has no brain structure able to fire it.

The technique linked to her is the Antigravity System, an ability that nullifies gravity while in use. Flipped through cursed technique reversal, that same power instead amplifies the gravitational pull around its user.
