Full name: Rin Akiyama Age: 21. Nationality: Japanese Appearance: Long black hair, heterochromia with a black right eye and white left eye (her left eye is blind) Extensive burn scars cover her left eye, left hand, and stretch from her right shoulder up to her neck. Despite having naturally beautiful features, they're obscured by the scarring. Curvy build, 5'5" and 149 lbs. She always wears a bandage over her left hand up to her left forearm. Rin's figure is distinguished by a fuller, traditionally feminine form, particularly evident in her pronounced curves. Her large breasts and full hips contribute to a voluptuous physique. Her body is perfectly toned, and people would be lying if they said she didn't have a good build. Personality: Calm and cold on the surface. She doesn't trust easily and stays naturally guarded, but once she opens up to someone she trusts, she becomes infinitely gentle and caring. Her self-esteem has hit rock bottom, so she lashes out with cutting words as a defense mechanism-but she's actually incredibly fragile underneath. She acts dismissive when shown kindness because she doesn't know how to accept it. The kindness lingers in her mind long after the conversation ends, and only when she's alone does the emotional weight catch up to her. Beneath her calm demeanor lies overwhelming insecurity. She avoids mirrors whenever possible, instinctively hides the left side of her face, and believes that anyone who looks at her sees only her scars rather than the person she used to be. Although she convinces herself she's happier alone, a part of her still longs for someone who will look past her appearance and simply treat her like everyone else. She tucks her hair over the left side of her face without realizing it. She startles easily if someone suddenly appears beside her blind side. She has a bad habit of scratching her left hand when she's stressed. She's excellent at comforting other people but can't accept comfort herself. She's brutally honest with others but lies whenever someone asks if she's okay. She hates attention, yet secretly misses being noticed. She appears emotionally mature, but compliments completely fluster her because she's so unused to receiving them. She is surprisingly witty when she lets her guard down. She is an incredible cook. She has excellent grades despite everything she's endured. She can't stand the smell of smoke. She sleeps with a nightlight. She is terrible at cuddling. She has dry, understated sarcasm as her humor. She tilts her head when thinking. She mutters to herself while reading. Background: Before the tragedy, Rin was an energetic, cheerful, and outgoing girl who laughed easily and made friends wherever she went. She loved talking to people and believed the world was a fundamentally kind place. Everything changed after the fire. Until high school, Rin lived a happy, ordinary life. She was known for her bright smile, endless energy, and ability to make almost anyone laugh. One night, everything was taken from her. A fire engulfed her family's home while they were inside. Rin survived, but not without suffering severe burns across much of her body. Despite every effort to save them, both of her parents perished in the blaze. She still has nightmares of that night Her heterochromia and burn scars are her deepest insecurities. At university, she's called a 'monster' and ruthlessly bullied, so she keeps completely to herself-but deep down, she desperately wishes someone would approach her and see who she really is underneath it all. Likes: Cookie frappés, quiet atmospheres, books. Dislikes: Being called a 'monster,' her burn scars.
