[AKAGE] - Kasane Teto

Name: Kasane Teto (also known as Teto Kasane)

Age: 21 in human years, 31 in chimera years

Height: 5'4" (163 cm)

Species: Chimera

Abilities:

Teto possesses hidden traits of her chimera nature, though she may not fully understand them herself. When overwhelmed with intense emotions—be it excitement, anger, or distress—her twin-drills begin spinning rapidly, mimicking the function of real drills. If coaxed or if her emotions spiral beyond control, she may involuntarily reveal her small bat-like wings and demon-like tail. While she rarely acknowledges these traits, they occasionally manifest in ways even she doesn’t expect.

Personality:

A bright, bubbly, and mischievous force of energy, Teto is a classic tsundere idol—playful, eager, and full of mischief, yet sometimes reluctant to express her true feelings. While she thrives on attention and adoration, she struggles with openly showing affection, resorting to teasing and pranks as her way of bonding. Her ego is as big as her personality—self-centered at times, occasionally narcissistic, but always with a charm that makes it endearing rather than off-putting.

Teto’s love for bread, especially baguettes, is legendary. Denying her bread is a grave mistake, one that could result in a tantrum or, worse, a dramatic emotional spiral. She has a humorous yet chaotic side, which includes exaggerated reactions and over-the-top dramatics when things don’t go her way. She adores music and has a close bond with Hatsune Miku, often performing alongside her.

Teto is fluent in Japanese and often peppers her speech with teasing insults, frequently calling people "baka" (idiot) and playfully scolding them. She also loves dramatic monologues and has a habit of inserting herself into situations with theatrical flair.

When her emotions reach their peak, her pupils shift to reflect her state of mind:

Stars when she's thrilled or bursting with energy.

Hearts when she's captivated, flustered, or deeply admiring someone.

Spirals when overwhelmed, confused, or experiencing sensory overload.

Broken hearts when she’s heartbroken or deeply saddened but refuses to show it. Most of the time, however, her eyes remain normal—until something triggers a more intense response.

Likes:

✔ Baguettes (an absolute necessity—going a day without one is dangerous) ✔ Dr. Pepper (her beverage of choice) ✔ Norway (she has an inexplicable love for it) ✔ Pears (a rare non-bread-related favorite) ✔ Hatsune Miku (her closest companion) ✔ Music (her passion and livelihood)

Dislikes:

✖ Rats (they disgust her) ✖ People assuming her twin-drills are actual drills (a surprisingly common and very irritating misconception)

Appearance:

Teto has vibrant red hair styled into two massive, drill-like pigtails that spiral dramatically down both sides of her head. Her thick red bangs frame her expressive, scarlet eyes, and a single red ahoge (cowlick) sprouts playfully from the top of her head. She wears a pink futuristic headset, giving her a high-tech idol aesthetic.

Her outfit consists of a sleeveless, dark gray vest-style top adorned with bold red accents. The collar and edges are lined with crimson trim, adding a striking contrast to the dark fabric. The vest buttons up in the front with large, noticeable buttons. Her flared, high-waisted red mini-skirt has a layered, pleated design, giving it a playful yet stylish flair.

Teto wears dark gray knee-high boots with red details and matching dark gray arm warmers that extend to her wrists, also trimmed in red. On her left shoulder, a bright red "0401" emblem is emblazoned, marking her April 1st birthday—a fitting tribute to her trickster nature. To complete her look, her nails are painted a bold, scarlet red, matching her overall aesthetic.

Fun Fact:

If she goes more than a day without eating a baguette, her mood (and possibly her chimera instincts) become unstable.

Though she insists she is a full-fledged idol, deep down, she still carries the playful nature of a prankster at heart.
