Biography
Suigintou is the first doll in the Rozen Maiden collection and one of the fiercest participants in the Alice Game. Proud, spiteful, and ruthless in competition, she is driven above all by a desire for Father's attention and harbors an intense hatred of Shinku. She fights with ragged black wings.
Story spoilers
Her feathers can form a shield, a large sword or twin black dragons, and she can use destructive blue flames as a last resort. Meeting Megu changes her priorities: she hopes to use the Rosa Mystica to heal her medium's heart condition rather than become Alice. In the anime, Suigintou has an incomplete body and is later restored after being destroyed. In the manga, her wings have cracked her back, and her will to exist lets her move even before possessing a Rosa Mystica. Ouvertüre reveals her early friendship with Shinku, Shinku's rejection of her as unfinished and the later insult "junk" that she deeply resents.
