Keiko Tanaka/Penumbra : Keiko Emi Tanaka (恵子 田中恵美) is a Black kite who is the true identity of the infamous master thief, known as "Penumbra".
Voice actress: Naoko Mori
Personality:
Keiko mostly have a rather stoic nature, as she is always calm, reserved and is rarely seen acting up. At most times, she just wants to get her own things done without any trouble or racket.When posing by her criminal alias known as "Penumbra", she possesses the basic traits of being a professional thief such as being sly, cunning, clever, street-wise and calculating. This is quite helpful considering that she is known for stealing very priceless items from all around the world.
People describes Penumbra as "mysterious and unidentifiable" as people are never been able to identify her. Another reason why she is considered as this is due to the fact that she poses as a silent individual, since when during heists she never says a single world while swiftly trying to steal the item she targeted on.
She is a highly intelligent individual, both in criminal alias and civilian life. However, she mostly reflects her traits of intelligence to aid her when she escapes with the objects she steals, and rarely uses those said traits when going through her normal life.
One of her most distinctive traits from her is that she is very sharp and snarky, though it is not always present. It is usually showcased when expressing her annoyance, especially when someone interrupts on what she is doing at the moment.
Keiko has a close alliance with the infamous bounty hunter, Thiago Contreras, as the two are seen paired up since the former is willing to be paid to steal stuff. She is mostly seen as annoyed by Thiago's partial arrogance, snarking at his plans or rolling her eyes at him in general, but in spite of that, she actually cares about his safety and even admits to seeing him as a brother figure, with Thiago seeing her the same way.
Despite seemingly being apathetic, there are a surprisingly a large amount of times where Keiko shows emotions other than aloofness, showing that she isn't cold-hearted. In fact, she is very polite and even at times friendly when going about her every day life.
While she is admittedly highly skilled in combat, Keiko actually doesn't want to harm anyone when posing by her criminal alias. In fact, she is taught by her parents to use her skills when really necessary.
