biography

Tycho is the blood of a Greek Gorgon, Kostas, "the devil of Greece" and a much beloved Kyoto geiko by the name of Teruha (照葉). Born after a one night stand between his parents, Tycho grew up in his grandmother Kazuha's (数葉) okiya. As a child, he grew up amongst his grandmother's maikos and was to become a maiko himself until he transitioned at the age of fourteen, then going on to pursue Noh Theatre when he was sixteen, officially dropping out of high school to do so.

Tycho's life then took a hard turn when the great spirit, Tamamonomae, found him. Unbeknownst to him, he was the reincarnation of Tamamonomae's long deceased loved one, who she had been spending centuries searching for and would now raise hell for, everyone else be damned.
