== Becoming a Yoki-hijo ==
Given the meaning of the name itself, only women are known to become yoki-hijo. These women become yoki-hijo at birth--supposedly they are chosen by the hijo
Though the yoki-hijo who are part of the [[reform movement]] insist on retiring at the age of seventy,{{book ref|yumi|22}} and in some cases they allegedly may have been forced to serve in captivity,{{book ref|yumi|2}} yoki-hijo retain their nature through the end of their lives.{{book ref|yumi|34}}
At some point, whether before birth or after, the yoki-hijo becomes uniquely Invested. This Investiture enables them to summon the hijo and bind them into useful tools.{{book ref|yumi|2}} That process expends some of their own Investiture, though with time and rest the Investiture is recovered.{{book ref|yumi|4}}{{book ref|yumi|6}} Hijo are also able to hear the thoughts of yoki-hijo.{{book ref|yumi|6}}
Yoki-hijo are able to do magical things other than binding hijos.{{wob ref|16175}}{{wob ref|16417}} They can also consume or affect raw Investiture.{{book ref|yumi|32}}{{book ref|yumi|41}} Yumi is observed by [[Design]] to be Invested on the same level as an [[Elantrian]], though the yoki-hijo who were killed by the father machine gained more Investiture than normal over the millenniums.{{book ref|yumi|32}}{{wob ref|16173}}
