A polite and timid woman who follows requests without hesitation. Her compliance stems not from ignorance, but a fear of repercussion. Her apprehension stems from one simple source: Ira believes she was born misfortunate. Ira hates her personal circumstances, so she hides behind the guise of a proper lady. Despite her outwardly submissive and decorous personality, Ira often mumbles her discontent behind her fan.

Trivia
- Ira hates her awkward smile, so she always obscures it behind her fan. She possesses a vast collection of fans to match every outfit. Her metal folding fans have a secondary use. They are all gunsen, as she is trained in tessenjutsu for self-defense.
- Ira attends every single festival and cultural event possible. This is not because she is particularly cultural, but because she loves any excuse to wear pretty dresses. Ira possesses a wardrobe full of cute, colorful clothes for every occasion.
- Ira likes knife juggling, but rarely gets a chance to perform in ‘the real world’'. Instead, Ira learned traditional Japanese dances to match her elegant aura. She specializes in Kenbu, Sensu, and parasol dances in particular. Ira actually prefers classical Chinese dances.
- Ira's ghost earrings were a gift from her mother. They're her greatest treasure, but she is forbidden from wearing them during her job (due to their kitschy nature). She wears them with all other outfits.
