[Hokan-jin]

Despite her angelic appearance she was a favored servant of the devil before fleeing after gaining a human conscience. Dark's appearance is largely mis-leading as she is a master trickster and very, very old. Since she gained a human conscience she fled to the human realm to see if she could figure out how this whole "wrong and right thing" works. Upon arrival there she gets involved with a young man named Hiruko who runs an orphanage and is an undercover police officer (she doesn't know the last fact). Eventually more of the devil's followers come for her and she starts hopping from place to place disappearing from society. Haruko puts out a missing person report as she continually flees from country to country. At the moment she is in backwater Texas teaching a high-school computer class.
