Lucitha
Keeper of the Past
Lucitha was the second Kiji to be summoned by Gaia as a helping hand and partner to Kokoro. Gaia used a similar formula to Lucitha's creation as she did for Kokoro, causing Lucitha to be void of empathy as well and dedicated to the cause. However, the formula wasn't exactly the same, and the unique personality factor Gaia had added in to make each Kiji different caused Lucitha to develop an interest in history. They wanted to record this battle, lest the records of it got lost, and record scripts of the past, as everything created on the earth was part of Gaia and to lose it all was a blow. They wanted to preserve knowledge and teach lessons to future generations to avoid it happening again.
Lucitha and Kokoro worked together alone for a long time until more Kiji were summoned to help, so close they could be considered friends. They retired early to focus on their project of preserving history, after getting approval from Gaia to do so, became the Kiji Loremaster.

Story
When Lucitha was first summoned, Kokoro was right there to show them the ropes. The two bonded as they planned attacks and worked to bring energy back to the Core. Lucitha looked up to Kokoro and admired them for their dedication and effort, and put every ounce of energy into doing their best at their job. For a while things were normal, as if they'd been working together for years. They worked well together, learning from each other, and efficiently brought back energy to the Core. However, the two were not enough, more Kiji had to be made.

As more Kiji were made, the workload Lucitha had decreased. They slowly separated from Kokoro to work on their own, teaching other Kiji and showing them the ropes. Through teaching the Kiji of what they were doing and why, they found a love for history and records. They enjoyed learning of things, reading and writing, and realized that as time went on, future generations would not know of the strife of before the Kiji, or this war they dealt with.
They started recording things, collecting history and storing it in a safe place. They communicated with Gaia, asking for permission to separate from the battle to compile records, and the importance of teaching future generations of the follies of the past, so this wasn't repeated. Gaia was appreciative and understanding, knowing that without learning from the past, future generations would make similar mistakes. They needed to save the history, lest it be lost and repeated. She did not want to repeat this.
As a Kiji, they weren't very skilled at hunting the humans, or collecting energy themself, but their wit was sharp and they were great at strategies and working as a team. When they split from Kokoro and started working with other Kiji, it was hard for them to keep up with that and record-keeping. Thus, Gaia allowed Lucitha to focus on record-keeping, without locking them out of the Core for lack of energy brought in, as she knew they were a huge help to providing aid to other more battle driven Kiji.
No one touches their scrolls and books. NO ONE. They were worried things would get damaged, especially the older more worn scrolls and relics. They made sure everything was organized and taken care of, but as things went on they struggled keeping up with the work.

As the Thinning came to an end, their workload only increased, and they asked Kokoro for help and advice. Kokoro's solution was to summon a new Kiji with Lucitha that would work with them, who was called Theophania. Theo was allowed to help with the many scrolls and books the Loremaster had accumulated and was still accumulating.
Theo was a great help, and the two managed the huge amount of lore together. Eventually, the Loremaster opened their sanctuary to others, letting others read the history, however she always keeps a very strict and focused eye on them...
