Sōten

She is the younger sister of the Thunder Brothers. Also Souten in another spelling of her name.

== History == Soten appeared in the episode "Shippo Receives an Angry Challenge" where she mistakenly believed that Shippo killed her brothers when in fact that it was InuYasha who had killed them. She then decided to seek revenge by luring Shippo into a trap that suppose to kill him.

Soten uses various schemes/plans to seperate Shippo from the rest of the group, she then created some plan that prevent each of the InuYasha Group members from interfering with her plans.

Later on she confronts Shippo and Shippo fooled her into a challenge by using his Crayon as prize. During the challenge the two battle each other and their strengths were equal, however, their match ended when Kagome and InuYasha interfered. Though truthfully there wasn't really much of a fight to begin with. Kagome mostly just hugged and cuddled Soten because she thought she was a boy. Soten then revealed that she was infact a girl, this only made Kagome squeal with delight as it made her more adorable to her. Shippo, feeling awkward, walked away and gave her his Crayons.

Soten was last seen happily drawing and coloring a picture of Shippo as a young beautiful man using the crayons Shippo gave her, revealing her crush on Shippo.

Personality
Soten behaves in a tomboyish manner and a has a bit of a high of opinion of herself sometimes, 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 has a short temper and has been shown to be easily fooled at times, despite calling herself a genius. And judging by her reaction to Kagome's affections and kindness, she might have been often given attention about her cute appearance. Soten has also been seen acting just like a kid (since she is' a kid) as shown when Shippo was playing with one of his toys, Soten wanted to play with it as well. Also, when she saw Shippo's drawings, she wanted his crayons and threw a fit when Shippo wouldn't give them to her.

Relationships
At first, Soten hated Shippo, believing he's respoonsible for killing her brothers, however, near the end of the episode when Shippo gave her his Crayon, she fell in love with him. At the end of the episode, she is seen blushing when Shippo gives her the crayons. She also draws a picture of Shippo as a young man, admiring it, which possibly means she has a crush on Shippo.
 * Shippo and Soten Relationship

It's unknown how their relation is as the Thunder Brothers 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 or at least care for Soten's company as they view women as useless and 'just for fun' and most likely because she'd be a reminder to Manten that another one of his siblings had hair that he wished he had.
 * Soten and Thunder Bros. Relationship

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

Attacks and Skills
Soten is weak and so she uses schemes and tactics to win her battle, her tactics seems to be effective as it was able to achieve almost what she wanted, however, in the end she didn't anticipate that only the real Kagome can use the spell "Sit!", despite this she also had some attack moves of her own.


 * Thunder Magic: Unlike the Thunderbros thunder magic, her thunder magic acts like Shippo's fox magic which are like illusions
 * Falling Doruma: Soten uses a hammer and whacks the Doruma at its opponents at full force
 * Laughing Acorn: Similar Shippo's Weeping Mushroom, but instead it's an acorn and it laughs.
