"Have you never noticed how, when the game runs away, a predator is always near? If you look around you and see no prey to hunt, then the answer is that you're not the hunter. I'm always the hunter."

- Rosame to Minato Kuramoto.

Jorōgumo (絡新婦, Spider Woman) is a young girl living in the 79th District of, Kusajishi. Living in Kusajishi, Jorōgumo is constantly struggling against the dangers of this District and fighting for her life. It is later revealed that Jorōgumo is a Jinki Fragment.

Appearance
A young female, Jorōgumo has a constant lazy expression on her face. She has short brown colored hair worn up and solid brown colored eyes. She wears a red button down shirt with gold lining and no sleeves. She wears red baggy pants and black sandals, as to no hinder her agile movements. She wears white bandage around both of her forearms as well as a pair of black gloves. She is often seen carrying a pair of modified cutlass for battle purposes.

Personality
After spending her entire "after-life" in the district of Kusajishi, Jorōgumo has become quite emotionless after watching the constant crime and strife that occurred before her. Her life, constantly on the line, she has learned to fend for herself as nobody else would. She isn't one to hold a conversation and when people engage her, she quickly darts away without their notice. Jorōgumo has shown to despise the life she lives and wants more, constantly seeking the compassion she see's others get.

The odd part about Jorōgumo is that she, on multiple occasions, has had the chance to leave Kusajishi but never does. To her, the life she lives in this crime-ridden District is the the life she is destined to win until she can find something to become. When asked if she would ever consider becoming a Shinigami, she remarked that she is not that much of a "dog to the Central 46" hinting at her views towards Shinigami.

Abilities

 * Swordsmanship Specialist: Skilled in the art of Sword-combat, she has shown to take on several larger men who attempted to steal from her in Kusajishi. She is skilled enough to swiftly slice off one of her opponents hands and quickly decapitate the other in a fluid motion. She has shown to be proficient with two-sword combat, using her main hand sword to block and her off hand sword to stab.
 * Spiritual Energy: Jorōgumo has shown to have traces of spiritual energy; shown when she was able to use Bakudō in an attempt to save herself. The extent of her spiritual powers have yet to have been seen.
 * Master Assassin': A skilled assassin, Jorōgumo has shown to be a master in this field.

She is proficient enough to pickpocket from anyone on a moments notice, a skill she prides herself on.

Jinki Fragment
Compassion (慈悲, Jiji; Japanese for "Charity) is the name of Jorōgumo's Jinki Fragment power and it stems from the Desire to have the compassion of others. Everyone seeks to be loved, and Jorōgumo uses this as a weapon. She can sever the bonds between anyone she meets. By touching the two individuals, she can sever any ties the two have. She can also create bonds between two individuals, allowing her to create false relationships or temporarily distract an opponent. As she herself also secretly is looking for compassion, it is believed she cannot use the ability on herself.
