As a human, Tama Inubouzaki is a fairly average, albeit shy, middleschooler and the eldest of three siblings. Tama is often left downtrodden by her mother and siblings due to her unremarkable athletic abilities and below-average intelligence, especially compared to her siblings. Her tendency to never raise her hand in class and to fall away during physical exercise makes her the least-popular student in her grade. Despite this, her grandmother appreciates her for being kind regardless of her other shortcomings.

As a magical girl, Tama (spelled with different characters compared to her real name) is a part of Team Ruler, alongside Ruler, Swim Swim, and the Peaky Angels Minael and Yunael. She has dog ears and a tail, and her costume consists of a hooded capelet, oversized paw gloves and black and white polka-dot tights resembling a dalmatian's coat, plus a pet collar and leash given to her by Ruler.
Much like in her homelife, Tama is often undermined by Ruler for her ability - to create holes in any surface she scratches - which doesn't have many practical uses, and for being overly-affectionate towards her boss. Still, Tama enjoys her teammates' company, and was even overjoyed when Ruler disrespectfully gave her the leash - a gesture which Tama perceived to be an act of kindness.

Tama is often seen with a vacant expression leading Swim Swim to feel sorry for her and give her affectionate pats on the head, although in reality Tama is just spacing-out as she processes everything going on around her. Tama and Swim Swim are very close, with the former giving the latter the nickname Swim-chan (localized to just "Swim" in Yen Press's English translation of the novels, and as "Swimmy" in the anime's English dub).

Tama is extremely cowardly, fleeing when she witnesses Snow White and La Pucelle practicing poses in the magical chat room during the events of Magical Girl Tropes and again upon first seeing Hardgore Alice during Magical Girl Raising Project.







In It Happens From Time to Tama, it is revealed that she achieved the highest level and maxed-out her stats in the Magical Girl Raising Project mobile game. This fact, along with her ability aiding in studying soil and finding ammonite fossils, earns Tama Inubouzaki the respect of one of her classmates who was reluctantly paired up with her for a school assignment.
