Shikieiki Yamaxanadu

Name: Shikieiki Yamaxanadu

Species: Yama

Abilities: Can distinctly judge anything to be Good or Evil










Personal Information
Shikieiki is one of the Yama who judge the dead to decide whether they go to Heaven, Hell, Hakugyokurou or get reincarnated. She's become well known in Gensokyo because she has a habit to lecture anyone and everyone about their fault. The souls of the dead are brought to her by Komachi over a river called the Sanzu no Kawa. She currently resides in Hell to judge the dead who've traversed to Higan and the Sanzu no Kawa. She has blue eyes, green hair that is longer on the left side, wears a dark blue, black and white dress with gold decorations with one ribbon on both sleeves and a blue and white hat with a gold emblem in front and a red and white bow on the back that are balanced equally. Her current age is unknown but it is speculated that she is immortal.
