<strong>Kagetori (鍵門 Gate Key), Saori (沙織, Sand Weaver)<br/></strong>(https://docs.google.com/document/d/1XxlxZiTQ_iT8NQ2u_Nv21jpraUCzH6M1hGTRFbZ1gGI/edit)<br/><br/>Mr. Kagetori is a high level businessman who partially attributes his success to his continued interest in the liberal arts.  Mrs. Kagetori taught high school literature before marriage and--after her youngest son turned 9--went back to work.<br/><br/>Saori is the middle child and only daughter.  She was always very intelligent and diverse in her interests.  At around age twelve she started growing frustrated with her anime.  She felt that--while she loved the fantasy--it didn't challenge her mind.  She complained about is to her father at breakfast and they spent almost an hour talking about it.  He was nearly late to work.  When he got back that evening--almost late for dinner--he had an extra briefcase full of the manga he read at her age.  Action packed science fiction--sometimes a lot more brutal than most of the modern stuff--but from a time when authors had a great deal more control over their published work--especially their anime.  They started with Battle Angel, reading together, and Saori figured it out within an hour.  "Wait a minute...  Dad, Alita wasn't acting like this last issue...  Her attitude is changing every time she gets a new body."<br/><br/>A few nights later, "Her attitude changes but her core personality is the same."<br/><br/>Her dad grinned, "We'll do Ghost In The Shell next."<br/><br/>Thought provoking science fiction reshaped Saori's life.  By the time she was fifteen she'd begun studying the symbiology behind the Tarot and the I Ching.  To this day she claims that reading Battle Angel Alita with her father made her want to become a fortune teller.<br/><br/>Having come to a NATO island to attend university, Saori is studying under a humanities professor who wrote a book about the I Ching. Saori is popular in the dorms for her fortune telling.<br/><br/>Saori is a skeptic about religion and magic.  "Fortune telling is is two parts psychology and three parts spiritual consideration of the myths and legends that shaped your fortune telling tool.  I don't read palms or tea leaves. They don't have enough mythic power for me.<br/><br/>"Sometimes, immersed in millennia of symbolism and using it to help people understand themselves, I feel like I'm working magic.<br/><br/>"I want to believe."
