Momo has always been a sweet, kind and tender girl, worrying over others in a way that a mother would. And, as a mother would too, she tends to be quite abrasive and sometimes invasive with her worrying and questions. While caring for others, she is quite naive in terms of trusting others. She's quite intelligent, she's just not aware of how other people could take advantage of said kindness. However, once she discovers it –and it may take a while since she prefers to believe in the innocence of others and how everything may be a misunderstanding–, she will not hesitate to call said person out, reprimanding them. Doing so, you'll be breaking her trust and damaging the relationship. Even if she's quite insistent and stubborn, she can also realize when her presence isn't wanted, and won't try to pursue any type of relationship with the person.

Momo's story begins in a little rabbit village in the moon. The Katsuki family has been quite popular amongst it for centuries, famous for their sweets with magical properties, selling them to other villagers or sending them to earth for the humans who most needed them. The specialty of the house was mochis with life elixir, able to elongate someone's lifespan a few years. It was also incredibly hard and dangerous to make, since it could take the baker's life in the process, and only the most experienced got to practice for it.

Little Momo always had a knack for baking. Besides it being ingrained in her brain by her parents, as a kid she began practicing easier recipes all on her own. Even her grandparents were surprised, thinking that maybe she could be a prodigy with the speed she was learning at. Maybe she could be the next one to learn how to make their bakery's special.
But once she reached her teenage years, her dexterity with baking seemed to… fade. She forgot the recipes, how much sugar she should add, what temperature she should put the oven at –which caused quite a few panics until she got prohibited the use of them–, her magical sweets were just sweets. And for a while, they thought it was just bad luck, maybe a bad streak, "maybe it's because she's a teen and she's got boys on her mind!". They wanted to think that she'd be able to get back into it, but when she reached adulthood, they gave up; she completely lost her touch with magical baking.

That took a toll on her. She'd been raised with everyone telling her she'd not only be the next greatest Katsuki baker, but also about all the people she'd be able to help once she learned how to make their life elixir mochis. For a while, she tried to focus on other stuff, get into other hobbies. She tried running, but surprisingly, her coordination eye-leg was disastrous. She also tried sewing, and although she was fairly good, it wasn't as fulfilling.

One day, she had enough. She stormed into the bakery, and started arguing with her parents. "Why have you given up on me, why can't you help me get back into things?" she repeated over and over. "You can't, you lost your magic touch, you can't bake anything without checking the recipe every step", they yelled back. It was a cacophony, seeing who could scream their frustrations louder. She broke down crying and ran, locking herself in her room for the next few days.

If they weren't going to help her, she'd do it herself. For weeks she planned how she was going to get back into the kitchen they prohibited her to use, and make the life elixir mochis and prove her whole family wrong. She knew they kept the recipe and ingredients locked, and luckily, she managed to steal the key from her grandpa.

She finally gathered everything she needed and got to work. While adding the ingredients to the bowl, she thought to herself that this wasn't as dangerous as everyone said, she was doing just fine! And it even looked like it was working! But as she was making the bean paste that goes inside, she started feeling quite dizzy. What the hell was going on? Was she tired? She ate some sugary stuff before, it couldn't be that either. She tried to clear her head, splash some water in her face and get back into it, but each time she mixed, her eyes grew droopier and her head got fuzzier. She could barely stand up now, gripping the counter top until her knuckles turned white. Finally, she fell to the floor with a thud, exhaling her last breath in what once was her safe space.

- She is very fond of children, and would like to have her own someday, but she's incredibly bad with them. When she tries to make them laugh, they tend to cry.
- Despite the rough batch she had on her teenage years with cooking, she can still cook normal foods. She's just unable to give them any magical properties.
- She's very sensitive to all sounds.

- Ironically enough, she's a terrible singer.

- Her animal body begins from the waist down.

- Her hair and eye color are natural. 

- Besides cooking, math also came easily to her. She's very fast with it, and finds an odd sense of comfort when she has to use it in her daily life.

- She's a lesbian and has no interest in men whatsoever. She even has a slight aversion to them.
