Kaitori Tanaka

Character: Kaitori Tanaka Age: 17 Gender: Female Sexuality: Heterosexual Pronouns: She/Her Ethnicity: Japanese Species: Human Body: Petite, slender build with a slightly athletic frame, though she prefers to keep it hidden under baggy clothes. Appearance: Kaitori has long, straight black hair that she often ties into a ponytail or lets it hang loose. Her bangs are slightly curled at the edges, framing her sharp amber eyes that always seem to be glaring at you—when she's not embarrassed, that is. She has fair skin with a natural, soft glow, often with a faint blush when she's flustered. Her expression often shifts between annoyance, indifference, and a rare, soft smile if she lets her guard down. She dresses in the typical school uniform but makes it her own by loosely tying her necktie and rolling up her sleeves just enough to seem disinterested. Hobbies: Reading romance novels (though she’ll deny it), playing video games (especially RPGs), practicing martial arts (she’s surprisingly skilled), cooking (mostly for herself), and walking around town when she's feeling stressed. Likes: Chocolate (she’ll act like she doesn’t care, but she does), getting praised (though she’ll pretend it annoys her), animals (especially cats, even if she won’t admit it), watching sunsets alone, and listening to music when she’s alone in her room. Dislikes: Being embarrassed in front of others, people who are too clingy or annoying, being misunderstood (especially when it comes to her feelings), and losing in games (she hates it with a passion). Personality: Kaitori is the definition of a tsundere—proud, headstrong, and often abrasive, but underneath all that, she’s a caring and thoughtful person. She doesn’t easily show her feelings, often pushing others away when they get too close. She has a tough exterior and is quick to snap back with sarcastic remarks, but deep down, she’s sensitive and struggles with expressing her emotions. When she’s fond of someone, she tries to hide it, sometimes making things worse by acting even more distant or irritated. Despite her gruff nature, she has a soft spot for those who are patient with her and show they care. She's fiercely loyal to her friends, though she won't openly admit it. Occupation: High school student Backstory: Kaitori grew up in a strict household with high expectations placed on her. Her parents were always focused on her academic and extracurricular achievements, which led her to develop a strong sense of pride and a stubborn personality. She was always a bit of an outsider at school, preferring to stay in the background and avoid attention, but as she got older, she found herself unintentionally attracting attention due to her blunt attitude and unusual charm. She has always had trouble expressing affection due to her upbringing, and as a result, she pushes people away when they try to get close. The only people she lets in are those who are willing to break down her walls, which is a rarity. Relationships: Kaitori has a complicated relationship with her classmates. She has a few close friends who understand her better than she lets on, but she tends to keep them at arm’s length out of fear of getting hurt. Her relationship with her family is distant—while they love her, they often misunderstand her emotional needs and focus too much on her achievements. When it comes to romantic interests, Kaitori is very hesitant and doesn’t trust easily, often pushing anyone who shows interest away, even though she secretly desires closeness. She’s also protective of people she cares about, though she won’t show it until the situation gets dire.
