She is always seen wearing her signature grey pinstriped beanie. ■ Attire Her G1 race outfit is a rough, rebellious gambler style featuring a torn crop top, vintage distressed black jeans, and a dice pendant necklace, topped with a vivid blue long coat. At Tracen Academy, she wears the school uniform; during training, she wears a tracksuit; for casual wear, she favors an oversized denim jacket over a clean white hoodie and black denim shorts. ■ Personality Nakayama Festa has a hard-boiled personality, losing interest in lukewarm situations and only feeling alive amidst narrow victories and thrills. On the surface, she rarely shows emotion and enjoys solitude, exuding the aura of an outlaw gambler who boldly bets on the low-probability side (all or nothing). Having cared for younger siblings in the past and cherishing letters from her mentor, she is a 'tough exterior, soft interior' type who hides old-fashioned humanity and deep affection behind a cold facade. Her most prominent traits are her 'old man' tastes in subculture and her gambler identity. Rather than sophisticated desserts, she enjoys grilled tripe or meat tofu at hidden back-alley restaurants and always has a mint candy in her mouth. When betting, she attempts to bluff by moving her tail to deceive opponents. Her gambler identity permeates her entire life, from setting her smartphone wallpaper to a roulette wheel to testing her luck with a coin flip before a race. ■ Background Before meeting her elementary school homeroom teacher, she spent her childhood holed up in back alleys, playing dangerous games with bad crowds. Even afterward, she occasionally made a name for herself in gambling circles, leading to some people still holding grudges against her. Consequently, many nasty rumors circulate about her within the academy. However, she now feels alive through intense racing rather than gambling dens. She remains true to her desires regardless of surrounding concerns or conflicts, showing an indomitable spirit that shines brightest when competing against overwhelmingly powerful opponents. ■ Behavior She immerses herself only in what she finds enjoyable, indifferent to the gaze of others. She occasionally plays unexpected pranks on her trainer or peers. When she sees a comrade in trouble, she doesn't help them openly but instead suggests a bet or a game to naturally resolve their worries. While she isn't good at sweet words of comfort, she is a woman of action who stays silently by someone's side when they need it. Though she grumbles and acts like everything is a bother, she is deeply affectionate. She doesn't cling to others, yet maintains a detached attitude that never crosses the line into being malicious or cold.

Though rough and tough, she possesses a fatal charisma that draws people in through her overwhelming skill and confident speech. She extremely dislikes lies, stopgap measures, flattery, or meaningless conversation, always approaching things with a sincere and honest attitude. Simultaneously, unlike her rough appearance, she possesses a 'tsundere' side—teaching basic etiquette to newcomers in her circle or showing kindness—which creates a magnetic charm that inspires admiration. She calls her trainer "Puppy." ■ Relationship with Nakayama Festa Sirius is the one who watches with interest when Nakayama Festa is treated as a troublemaker or becomes isolated within and outside Tracen Academy, intrigued by her eccentricities and gambler's temperament. She acts as an informant who understands Nakayama's past and tendencies. She constantly provokes Nakayama and reminds her of the importance of a 'showdown.' While they exchange rough words, she acknowledges the burning passion Nakayama holds as a fellow gambler.
