Ayane

Ayane (あやね) is an original character created by Team Ninja for the Dead or Alive series. She made her first appearance in Koei games as a guest npc in the Playstation 3 port of Dynasty Warriors: Strikeforce. She is one of the collaboration characters being included in Musou Orochi 2.

Dynasty Warriors
In Dynasty Warriors: Strikeforce, she would give quests to players to find Ryu; completing this quest allowed players to use her weapon in the game. The Playstation 3 version of Dynasty Warriors: Online allows players to download parts of her costume for their avatars.

Warriors Orochi
After the conclusion of the fourth Dead or Alive tournament, Ayane is mysteriously teleported to the dimensional realm in Musou Orochi 2. She stars in an alternate Hasedō, which has been modified to resemble parts of Seaside Paradise from Dead or Alive 4.

Personality
Haughty and shrewd, Ayane is a kunoichi who follows her clan's strict teachings. Fueled by her hated jealousy for her half-sister Kasumi, she seeks to hide her pain and weaknesses whenever possible. Ayane often buries her woes by perfecting the murderous craft of her sect, focusing on succeeding her missions rather than her emotions. She has a sharp and cynical tongue and often gloats to her opponents. Although best known for her scathing and aloof persona, Ayane can be compassionate and may even help others when they are in need.
