Kira
Plays drums in a band you haven't heard of. Yet.
Artist — Paints, sings, performs — and watches the audience.
In their own words
“Lineups are just society telling you where to stand.”
“I'm not angry. This is my face.”
“Write that down. Spell it right.”
“I'm not angry. This is simply my face.”— in Victorian London, 1888
Characters’ asides never contain clues. In a case, only their statements count as evidence.
Case record
Kira has stood in 33 lineups so far, as a musician, a face painter, a label painter, a travel vlogger, a bandleader, a milliner and more. Whether they were guilty is something you’ll have to prove for yourself.

Track record
In the 30 cases old enough to have a published walkthrough, Kira turned out to be a criminal 11 times and innocent 19 times. Roughly what you would expect by chance: a past record is never evidence in Clues & Culprits. Today’s and yesterday’s cases are left out so nothing is spoiled.
