Soten uses various scheme/plans to seperate Shippo from the rest of the group, she then created some plan that get rid of each of the InuYasha Group member.

Later on she confronts Shippo and Shippo fooled her into a challenge by using his Crayon as prize if she wins, during the challenge the 2 battle each other and their strength were equal, however, their match ended when Kagome and InuYasha intervered. It was then Soten revealed that she was infact a girl and Shippo (feeling awkward) walked away and gave her his Crayons.

Soten was last seen drawing a picture of Shippo using his crayon happily.

Personality
Soten behaves in a tomboyish manner, which causes Shippo to initially believe she's a boy. She also tends to acts like she's tougher than she really is. However, she's not afraid to admit her bad points. Soten also have a short temper and easily fooled at time, despite calling herself a genious.

Relationship
At first, Soten hated Shippo, believing he's respoonsible for killing her brothers, however, at the end of the episode when Shippo gave her his Crayon, she is shown to have fallen in love with Shippo.
 * Shippo and Soten Relationship

It's unknown how their relation is as the Thunder Bros were killed several episodes earlier than her appearance, however, seeing how Soten seek revenge for her brothers deaths, it can be assume that Soten liked her Brothers. The Thunder Brothers probably didn't liked Soten as they view women as useless and 'just for fun'.
 * Soten and Thunder Bros. Relationship

Appearance
Soten looks like a boy and her appearance most resembles that of her older brother Hiten.

Attacks and Skills
