Personality

Kamui is either brave or stubborn. She enjoys fooling around with post-hypnotic triggers placed on her trainer and just having a good time in general. Her definition of a good time tends to entail physical affection being given to her, or simply talking with a good friend, depending on whether she is human, gijinka, or Pokémon.

An attention-seeker by nature, she enjoys being given physical affection, returning positive emotions to most anyone who shows her affection. She also tends to become, in Colton's words, "violently territorial", of those she cherishes, namely her trainer and Pentigan.

As Lamb, however, her personality becomes more cold and calculating, focused on the mission with little emotion coming through, short of the ferocity of her flames. If she needs to subdue a target she has no qualms about attempting to use Hypnosis to knock them out as soon as she can.

Trivia

• Kamui likes speaking Japanese, but knows when not to do it.
• Whenever she is human, her shirt has a single kanji character on it, typically reflective of what she is thinking, doing, or feeling. The kanji can change without her having to shift between forms, and typically the change is triggered by the last sentence she spoke.
  • As shown in the image above, the default kanji adopted is the character "和", meaning "peace".
  • Any attire she wears has this attribute. For example, when she dressed as Rosalina for Halloween one year the star highlights at the bottom of her dress had this attribute.
• When human she answers to “Amy Hikari”, although she has on one occasion been referred to as “Amaterasu Hikari-Rever”, but now that she answers to "Kamui", this may no longer be her human form's full name anymore.
• She uses a single wisp in Will-o-Wisp, Confuse Ray and Hypnosis.
