Lilith Frost is dead.
She was one of the best they had, and she was dead.
Kiyohime Ikari was born, and she remembered her past life as Lilith when she bumped into a certain raven-haired future detective, making this life much much more interesting for her.
The Puppeteer, Lilith aka Kiyohime, only knows how to enjoy herself, and so she does. Slowly, twisting and turning and trapping everyone around her in her mind games, infuriating Light and L to no end.

"So are you saying, Kiyo, that if you had Kira's power you would do the same thing?"
"Again, Sayu, I am not saying anything, but if I did have Kira's power, who's to say what I would have done? I wouldn't know myself, not until I would have gotten it before all this happened."

Manipulation is an art, and she treats it as such. She takes it slow and steady, as if rewiring their minds in the way to favor herself. They are the puppeteers and she is the puppet, but what they don't realize is that their fingers move with the strings being manipulated by the puppet.
[Vᴏʟᴜᴍᴇ 1 - Cᴏᴍᴘʟᴇᴛᴇ]
Evelyn White was born with a gift - or rather, a curse: the first time she touches someone, she sees when and how that person dies. Meeting new people is sickening. Walking through a crowd is hell. Not to mention that when she opens her big mouth to tell people what's going to happen to them, most treat her like she's crazy - even after she saves their lives.
But meddling with the future has consequences, and Death is not all there is to fear. As Evelyn races to find a way to save the new transfer student from being murdered, a voice starts whispering in her ear. Someone or something lurks in the shadows. Watching. Waiting. Trying to get close using mind games and tricks.
It knows about her powers. It knows she can change Fate - and it's not alone.
