Summary

Keiko Ayano, born on October 4, 2010, is the thirteen-year-old daughter of Ayano Tetsuhiko. In the game Infinity Moment, she operates as a mid-level dagger wielder and is defined by her exceptionally cheerful and sweet demeanor. She stands out as one of the exceedingly rare Beast Tamers in SAO, possessing a unique feathery dragon familiar named Pina, a tribute to her real-world cat. Keiko holds Pina in the highest regard, and her bond with the creature is cited as the primary reason for her survival within the game. As a female player and Beast Tamer, she is viewed as an idol by her peers, attracting a constant stream of invitations from parties and guilds seeking her association for increased fame. This intense attention fueled an unhealthy sense of pride, leading her to abandon a party following a misunderstanding. Subsequently, she was cornered by monsters and lost Pina. Her ordeal ended only when Kirito, who happened to be nearby, intervened to rescue her and assist in resurrecting her deceased familiar.
