Canon Point: After the Extra Stage of Imperishable Night
Gender: Female
Age: 100+; exact age unknown. Appears to be in her early 20s.
Birthdate/Sign: 13th June - Gemini. This is not a canon birth date, but is chosen as such partially because of her dual nature, and partially because she displays some of the classic Gemini traits: She is intelligent, imaginative and adaptable, but also superficial and impulsive -- at least, when it comes to protecting others, attacking anyone who looks suspicious without first confirming their identity and intent.
Tattoo: A little over an inch and a quarter-inch in diameter, smack dab in the middle of her forehead.
Power: Keine will not retain any of her canon powers and instead have Air Healing.
Personality: To start off, Keine is basically a motherly figure, teaching history in a school she established at the Human Village, and also a guardian of sorts to the humans that live there, as well as her friends, including one Fujiwara no Mokou, a pyromaniacal immortal. She's gentle, nurturing, and a gracefully quiet genius in her own right. If there's anything she has a strong passion for, it'll be history, and her love for humans in the village; it's probably why she has protected the village for so long.
Keine might also be a little ditzy from time to time, shown when she was insistent, towards specific groups of protagonists, that there was no human village even while the youkai among them were still clearly able to see the village. It could also instead have simply been too strong a desire to protect the humans she loved so much, but the insistence was a little silly nonetheless, and a little 'out of character' for the wisest of half-beasts that she is.
Being someone as wise as Keine is, she is, as can expected, observant and intuitive. She was easily able to find out where the protagonists were heading, and also easily realized who were the ones behind the artificial moon, despite the protagonists themselves failing at doing that the whole time. By extension, it was only because she had wanted to protect the humans that she hadn't left the village herself to put a stop to the culprits' actions. In other words, Keine is largely more defensive than antagonistic; her focus on wanting to protect prevents her from actually solving the problem herself.
Above all else, an important trait of Keine's is how she seems inclined towards sacrificing herself for the protection of others. This is shown when she puts herself between not only between the protagonists and the human village, when she initially suspected that they were targetting it, and also when she stood forward to meet the protagonists who were heading towards Mokou, bellowing, "I won't let you lay a finger on her!" as she did so, and even while in her hakutaku form, when she might just be a tiny bit unhinged herself.
Her hakutaku form is not entirely indicative of her personality, but while in that form she might also be a little edgy, prone towards injuring others, and hunting, possibly due to raw feral instinct. It is only with strong self control that she does not, and manage to focus on protecting those who are dear to her, as well as her work as a creator(or writer) of history.
Being half-youkai and half-human, Keine's devotion towards protecting those dear to her is exceptional among others like her. While other half-breeds would tend to be shunned by their both of their counterparts, Keine's devotion has led the humans of her village to come to love her as much as she them, though of course only she would be capable of protecting both.

Good day, fellow inhabitants of Zodion. I am Keine Kamishirasawa, a mere historian and teacher from... [ she had been about to say 'Gensokyo', but stops short. People outside of the Border aren't supposed to know about it, after all. ] Japan. It's a pleasure to meet each and every one of you.

"Zodionlogs" Third-Person Prose Entry:
There was a sudden lurching feeling that left her sick in the stomach, adding on to the already overwhelming feelings of exhaustion and pain wrecking her body. A feeling which made her feel as if she was to be thrown into a place that she didn't belong. That abrupt lurching feeling gave her a jolt in itself, and forced her to shut her eyes. Sure enough, she was indeed to be thrown into a place she didn't belong... And at the worst of times, too.
The full moon hadn't receded back home, just moments ago, when she had been slowly trudging her way towards the general direction of where her assailants had left towards -- that is, when suddenly everything simply disappeared altogether. Her pain, her fatigue, the entirety of her environment, and the full moon along with all of it, all gone, and replaced by a new set of feelings and worries.
'... What... An illusion?'
First came the piercing sensation on her eyes as she tried to open them once again, curious and astonished by the sudden change in environment and sensations; the contrast between the darkness of the prior night and the current bright environment taking full effect. Then came the agonizing pain, as her transformation back to her weaker human counterpart takes hold; with the comparatively abrupt lack of the full moon, the normally-lamentable transformation to and from her hakutaku form was now tenfold more excruciating to handle, her shrieks that could be heard from perhaps a mile away would be evidence to that.
This was no illusion, she knew. No mere illusion could invoke her transformation between forms unless it was the full moon itself, and, being sensitive to the moon's presence, she was easily able to ascertain that it was no longer hanging above her as it had been just moments ago; the false full moon invoked by the members of the Eientei had been evidence of that. Calm, but nonetheless weakened by the agony caused by her unnatural body, she would quickly begin to survey her surroundings - not without briefly gazing in wonder of its beauty - and deduce that she was no longer within Gensokyo, and very possibly no longer in the same world she had been in just moments ago, too. Her attention then turned to the stone altar before her and, asserting that whoever or whatever had brought her here would indeed want her to, approaches it, drawn inexplicably to the stone and the softly glowing box upon it.
Upon approaching the ring of water itself, she pauses, very briefly cautious of what might happen if she enters. However, urged by the beckoning of the altar, Keine would eventually take a step over the ring, and pass over it eventually, to be surprised by the - along with the acute irritation on her forehead - abrupt rising of water all around her to form a mirror about herself, showing her clothed self... except without the clothes. Inevitably, she would reach to cover herself and quickly look down, disturbed, only to contact soft fabric and confirm that she was indeed still retaining her modesty, before turning her attention to that nagging, piercing pain upon her forehead. She would look back towards the crystalline aqueous mirror which surrounds her, and push her bangs to the side...
♊
There it was, the conjoined twin Is of the Gemini right in the middle of her forehead, glowing softly, but easily noticeable enough even against her fair, supple skin, standing out like a blemish upon her beautiful features. As soon as she would rest her eyes upon the mark, the nagging irritation would cease as abruptly as it had began, much to her curiosity. It was a little insulting, she felt, to be branded like this. It didn't matter that she had easily recognized the sign to be that of the western zodiac's Gemini, her very own star sign as well.
However, there was no time to feel indignant or insulted. Her attention would turn to the box that was now no longer glowing softly as it had moments ago, for a clue of some kind, which would allow her to return home, to locate Mokou, and to return to protecting the village which she had lived in for so long and grown to love deeply.
