Looks:
Basically a lot like Kagome. Only more refined. Long, straight black hair, straight bangs, narrower brown (or gray in the manga) eyes, usually an angry or sad expression, and she wears the usual miko outfit, a white kimono and a red hakama.
Weapons:
Kikyou, a fully-trained miko, has priestess powers similar to Kagome's, but more controlled. She also has her soul-stealing demons and her bow and arrow. She also tends to use her priestess abilities more aggressively than Kagome, shocking Inuyasha a few times, while he was trying to save her life. Smart, huh?
Up Side:
Um............ Well, for a while, she was content to just live in a small village as a priestess and healer. Then Naraku's men kidnapped her to heal Naraku, and she ended up working with him.
Down Side:
She HATES Inuyasha. She hates Kagome, too, but she feels that Inuyasha is responsible for death, only to learn from Kagome about Naraku. But even then, she doesn't care, and works with Naraku to kill Inuyasha. She even uses Inu's feelings against him after she attacked Kagome, saying he could never hurt her, since he swore to protect her, then walks away laughing.
Over All:
When she was alive, she may have been a nice person, but a bit lonely. Perhaps the reason she and Inuyasha thought they loved each other was because they were both lonely, and both of them understood the other's pain. But their trust was broken so easily... And now she's become corrupted by her hatred of her former love.
