Destruction:
Her claws are strong, and sharp, like those of many oni and youkai and she has the strength in those claws to tear through armor and steel, and even claw deep into stone.
Powers/Abilities/Talents:
The powers of this oni are incredible and powerful, leading to its fearsome and mythic reputation. They are as follows:
Unholy flames: Kyoso is able to throw balls of black, demonic flames from its hands. This mystical flames burn through normal resistances to flame as it is a flame of the soul, burning it with the damned flames while leaving the body unharmed.
Teleportation: Kyoso has the power to will herself to any location that she knows. She can also use this power to teleport herself to anywhere that someone invokes her name.
Shapeshifting: Kyoso has the power to transform her shape into any form she feels will be more likely to achieve her goals. Her form is almost always female, though she does has a preference for a form that reminds her of her former human form.
Telekinesis: Kyoso has the power to move and manipulate objects and people with her mind, the heavy the object is the faster it will wear her out.
Regeneration: Kyoso can heal any wound that doesn't kill her out right within a matter of hours, the exception being weapons made of jade, treated crystal, holy weapons, and honorable weapons.
Cloud of Taint: Kyoso no Oni, like the other Oni Lords is able to summon up the air of Jigoku itself and release it into the area, spreading a virus of pure evil that thrives in the realm of evil, killing, twisting, and mutating all within its radius of 30 feet.
Spells: As former dark priestess Kyoso can produce a number of effects through concentration and words, though unlike a miko, whose spells come from her purity, or a dark one, whose spells come from her corruption, Kyoso calls upon the powers of Jigoku itself for power.
Create Spawn:The first and greatest of the Kyoso can create spawn, lesser versions of itself to send out into the world to act as her agents. They are considerably less powerful and lack several of Kyoso's more potent abilities, such as telekinesis and cloud of taint, the full brunt of her regeneration, as well as her spell casting powers. If the primary is killed then her power will flow into a spawn which will become the new primary.
Shikon Jewel Power: Empathy: Since gaining a fragment of the Shikon Jewel Kyoso has been able to sense the emotions of others within 100 feet, and it makes her that much more powerful in manipulating people, and she has found that her spawn created since gaining it have had this power as well.
Attitude Check:
Patience, love, hate, vengeance, destruction, misery, manipulation, and rage. These are words that can be used to describe Kyoso, and while they are accurate words to describe her, they fail to truly describe the horror that is Kyoso no Oni. While she considers herself to be a patron of love those she blesses often end up dead, or worse. She hates the wolf youkai with a burning passion and ironically that makes her an ally of them at times, as she sees it that their deaths are hers and hers alone and those that kill them instead are stealing from her, and no one steals from this oni. A subservient being, the actual Oni, lurks in Kyoso's mind, and while weaker than Kyoso, it still serves as an advisor and confidant to Kyoso
Mirror:
Given the nature of Kyoso she endures to the modern age and is active there as well. Thus she has three default appearances.
True Form:
The lower part of Kyoso is twenty feet long.

Return to the Past:
Legends of the wolf tribes tell of a horror that lurks in the land, an Oni with a grudge and the power to extract it on any wolf youkai it encounters, and really any one it meets that angers it. They call it Kyoso, and it is no mere story, and the truth is far worse than the tales that are told of it.
There are several powerful beings known as Oni Lords, and they are some of the most powerful lieutenants in Amatsu-Mikaboshi's forces. Each of them stand as a victory in Jigoku's war against all that is pure and good, and while the origins of the others is shrouded in mystery or known and documented elsewhere, the origin of Kyoso is a secret known only to a few.
Kyoso Agasha was once a promising young Miko, destined for great things, though during a chance occurrence she encountered a wolf youkai named Anzai, the son of that Wolf Tribe's leader, and she fell in love with him at first sight and she believed that he felt the same way. On an impulse Anzai arranged for the two of them to be wed. But stark reality struck hard when a rival for Anzai's love appear, the daughter of a fellow wolf tribe's chieftain, a woman by the name of Ryo. She used her skills and political connections in the wolf tribes to humiliate and ostracize the young priestess. Anzai's father broke off the engagement between Anzai and Kyoso and arranged for a marriage between the two wolf youkais. Anzai begged his father to not kill her, and so he banished her, not to return to the wolf lands under penalty of death.
Living in a tiny hovel in the wasteland resentment grew in Kyoso's heart, resentment, and madness. While enduring her banishment she began to suffer from nightmares, encouraging her to take revenge on Ryo and Anzia and all that dared to stand between her love. At first she was able to resist, but as the years of isolation and loneliness dragged on she found her willingness to resist lessening. In time she gave in, and summoned an oni from the depths of hell itself. She not only gave the oni her name, she merged with it physically. But to the oni's surprise the human's will was stronger, far stronger, strong enough to be the dominate part in the union. Even more surprising was that Kyoso had become a creature of pure evil, a willing servant to Amatsu-Mikaboshi, and as such Kyoso no Oni was born. The only thing that remained of Kyoso's former human life was a fan given to her by Anzai, and that became her convenant, and it still holds sway over her to this day.
The New Oni Lord went on a rampage through Wolf lands killing Ryo, Anzai, Anzai's father, and dozens of others before disappearing into the wild. Every now and then she would return and kill some more and then vanish again. In time Anzai's tribe and Ryo's tribe fully merged and it only served to enrage Kyoso even more and she devoted herself to their extermination. But they were not without recorse, and over time a group was created to deal with Kyoso. It would take them centuries but eventually they imprisoned Kyoso in a tomb of mystical ice, preventing her escape. The spell was linked to their bloodlines, and slowly the members of the group were killed off by the spawn of Kyoso, even if they did sacrifice themselves to do so. But when the last surviving descendant of was killed by Naraku and it ended the spell. It has taken it time, but the ice has melted and Kyoso has returned, and she is not pleased, the wolf's she swore vengeance on were dead, killed by someone else. Those wolves were hers to kill, and someone robbed her of her vengeance, someone her last surviving spawn called Naraku.
Kyoso endures to the modern age, at one point she died and was banished back to Jigoku for a time, but she managed to get herself summoned back to the mortal realm shortly after World War 2. She killed the foolish mortal quickly, and then vanished into the underbelly of the recovering nation. In time she started impersonating a student in Tokyo, enabling her to ingratiate herself on young, hormone driven boys and girls she can seducing into making deals with her. She is now a student at Kagome's high school and has something planned.
Other:
Kyoso no Oni is different then most beings in the world and that is to say that she is not actually native to it. She is a being called up from the depths of Jigoku, or hell, and as such is subject to different rules than most beings. The primary one is that if she is killed and has no spawn to jump to she will be banished back to Jigoku for a length of time before she can claw herself back to the mortal world. Due to this she is able to endure to the mortal era and it also makes her an ancient and long planning enemy. The other rules weaken her against jade and treated crystal, and mean that out there is a specific item bound to her and the person that holds it prevents her from harming him, and can command one request from her, though once used it no longer works for that person, so use it at your own risk. The object that does this for Kyoso is a decorative fan.
The version in the future does not possess the Shikon jewel shard, having lost it before her banishment. She also cannot communicate to her former self alone, she would need help of someone that can travel through the well. What she knows of those times in the past when she had a shard she will not speak of, not without a large price being paid at the very least.
