Kanae

Kanae was gifted the cursed sword Hanei by her father. The sword possessed her and caused her to murder a number of people in the neighborhood, starting with the burglers who broke into her home and killed her new husband and household staff. Kanae's name is written with two kanji, the first for "answer" and the second is the counter for long thin objects such as swords. (Source: furinkan.com)
