'''Rei''' was a young [[Japan]]ese girl and a partner to fellow orphan [[Taku]] in [[Yamashiro]] during the late [[Sengoku period]]. Every night, they scared any travelers and potential [[thief|thieves]] away from a group of [[bandit]]s in order to receive food. Their actions led people to believe that there was the actual ''[[yōkai]]'' known as the ''{{Wiki|Kappa (folklore)|Kappa}}'' (河童, lit. 'river child').<ref name="The Yokai">''[[Assassin's Creed: Shadows]]'' — [[The Yokai]]</ref>

==Biography==
By 1582, along with Taku, Rei lived on the streets. They soon found themselves working for [[bandit]]s in northern Yamashiro. They dressed and posed as ''kappa'', in order to frighten any passerbys away from their employers' stash at [[Haunted Tatarigami Village]]. Their behavior led to rumors circulating of ''kappa'' living in the [[Genbu Highlands]], which led villagers to travel to the [[Scholar|monk]]-turned-demon hunter [[Mamushi]] for help.<ref name="The Yokai"/> 

Overworked with the rumors, Mamushi met the [[Japanese Brotherhood of Assassins|Kakushiba ''ikki'']] members [[Fujibayashi Naoe]] and [[Yasuke]] and asked them to investigate all these ''yōkai'' claims. During their investigation in Yamamshiro, they traveled at night towards the haunted village and discovered the "''kappa''" trying to scare the duo. Following the creatures up the hill, they came across the village and faced off against a number of bandits. After Naoe and Yasuke killed the bandits, Rei and Taku came out and pleaded forgiveness. Having explained their predicament, they both left the village free.<ref name="The Yokai"/>
