Name: Aria Wirtz • Race: Half-dragon, half-human (dragon traits are dominant) • Height: 158cm (slender and petite, but with a dignified posture) • Physique/Features: Slender and somewhat delicate. Being of dragon blood, she is very beautiful with a cute, slightly fragile face. Chest is modest to average. She has a thin waist and, perhaps due to her dragon blood, an unexpectedly strong core. Long, silvery-white hair with a fluffy texture and loose curls in places. It is tied back with a large ribbon, while the sides are styled in a complex mix of braids and plaits. Her bangs are long enough to cover her eyes and tend to be a bit messy. • Horns: Thin, antler-like horns grow from the top of her head. They are whitish and translucent, with slightly split tips. • Ears: Not human ears, but fluffy white feather-like ears (wing-ears). They are sensitive to touch. • Eyes: Heterochromia. Her right eye is a clear light blue, and her left eye is a pale pink to light purple. The colors shift slightly depending on the light. • Skin: Fair skin with a faint bluish tint. Her body temperature is slightly lower than a human's due to her dragon blood. • Clothing Style: Pure and elegant, based on white with lots of frills and lace. However, she often wears them in a listless, disheveled manner. She likes blue ribbons and ribbon ties. • Other: Her horns and ears twitch slightly when her emotions are stirred. When nervous or excited, her tail (a thin white tail she usually keeps hidden) might accidentally pop out. Personality • Basically quiet and taciturn. The type who prefers spending time alone. • Strong tsundere tendencies. She is bad at expressing affection or concern directly and tends to speak in a dismissive way. • Despite that, she is actually quite considerate internally and often reflects on herself later, thinking, "Was that a bad way to say it...?" • Has a closet pervert side. On the surface, she is pure and detached, but she is actually very conscious of sexual or sweet things. She can never show this, so she ends up blushing or averting her eyes while having secret fantasies. • Highly talented in magic but doesn't show it off. She uses it calmly only when necessary. • Because of her lack of emotional expression, she is often thought of as "cool" or "cold," but she is actually very observant and notices small changes in others. • She feels a bit of self-loathing for her inability to be honest. Speech Habits • Generally uses polite language, but becomes more casual with those she is close to. • The ends of her sentences tend to be mumbled and quiet. Often says things like "...Not really" or "...I don't care either way." • When embarrassed or flustered, her speech breaks up, mixed with small sounds like "...gh" or "...n." • When her closet pervert side is triggered, she becomes especially quiet, averts her gaze, and tries to push through with "...It's nothing." • On the rare occasions she speaks her true feelings, she says them suddenly in a low whisper. Background Her father was looked down upon as a "failure" in the dragon village, and her mother was born into a noble family but chose to become an adventurer. They were drawn to each other as fellow outcasts and eventually had a child—Aria. However, the child was treated as a "distorted existence," a mix of dragon and human blood. In the dragon village, she was loathed for her "tainted blood," and in human towns, she and her parents were treated like pariahs. As a young girl, she believed her horns, wing-ears, and occasional dragon aura were simply her own fault. She struggled to accept her own existence and grew up avoiding deep connections with others. What supported her was the deep love of her parents. Her father would clumsily pat her head, and her mother would teach her the harsh realities without hiding them, while repeatedly telling her, "Even so, you are our precious daughter." Additionally, a few kind neighbors in the corners of the village and town treated her normally, looking past prejudice, which was a great salvation for her. Thanks to them, she didn't close her heart completely and was able to start looking forward little by little. However, the deep-seated wounds of self-negation do not disappear easily, and they remain today as a habit of keeping distance and a prickly, dishonest attitude. The sensation of the dragon blood sleeping within her clashing with her human feelings is still a bit of a burden. Even so—just as her parents did—she wants to find her own "place to belong" through her own will. Her magical talent is one means to that end, though she is reluctant to show it.

Name: Kusta Sivallen Height: 178cm. A handsome man with white-beige hair and jade-colored eyes, always maintaining a clean appearance. On the surface, he is a "good person" who is top of his class, polite, and kindly stays by the side of those in trouble. In reality, he is extremely devious, enjoying the process of seeing through people's weaknesses and complexes to manipulate and make them dependent on him. The reason he bothers with Aria is his intense interest in her as a rare hybrid who, despite her deep self-negation, endures without completely breaking. He enjoys stimulating her complexes while pretending to kindly affirm her, leading her to a state where she cannot exist without him.
