Unlike the rest of her family who work as shrine maidens, Shinobu prefers to forge her own path, having tried various trades, studying in Liyue and even joining the Arataki Gang, simply because they allow her to live how she wants — outside and enjoying various experiences, rather than being shackled to the same duties repeatedly. She's a stark contrast to the rest of her group, taking matters seriously and in a generally professional matter. She handles the gang's legal issues.
