Riko Amanai (
Appearance
Riko is a young slim girl with long dark hair that is braided in the back and extends past her shoulders, with her bangs extending down and covering the middle of her forehead. She is always seen with her light hairband on the top of her head and normally wore her school uniform.
The uniform was designed with striped cuffs and collars on a white long sleeved shirt with a black skirt, black stockings, and black shoes. She has also worn a black dress with white shoes. While at the beach, Riko wore a straw hat, a white hooded jacket and a black top and bottom swim suit.
Personality
Riko is an outspoken and feisty young woman who appeared to steadfastly believe in her role as the Star Plasma Vessel. She tried to keep up an aggressive facade at times, but she's really just a normal teenage girl who's been thrust headlong into the jujutsu world.

Riko decides she wants to stay with everyone.
Riko is a social girl who cares about her personal relationships. She is very close to her caretaker Misato Kuroi and enjoys spending time with her friends at school as well. When Misato was kidnapped, Riko's escorts offered to handle it themselves but she wanted to help. Riko quickly became flustered when it came to people she cared about and her ability to be with them, resulting in an outburst of tears when that's thrown into question.
Without a traditional family, Riko initially embraced her fate as the Star Plasma Vessel because she thought she was alone. However, after spending time with her escorts Satoru Gojo and Suguru Geto along with Misato and friends at school, Riko ultimately decided she wanted to live out her life with everyone instead of merging with Master Tengen.
Abilities and Powers
Overall Skill Level: Riko is a non-combatant, however she can still see curses and has a good understanding of the workings of jujutsu. She likely learned this after discovering her status as the Star Plasma Vessel, a perfect match for Master Tengen.
