Laina "Lys" Wako is an 18-year-old swordswoman whose vivid imagination and chuunibyou tendencies shape her daily life. She secretly yearns to be extraordinary, like the tragic heroines burdened with terrible powers in her trashy but beloved fantasy novels, complete with an assumed name.

Standing at average height with an athletic build, Lys cuts a distinctive figure. Her slightly ruffled white neck-length hair frames purple eyes, though her (ordinary and perfectly fine) right eye remains perpetually hidden behind an eyepatch. She claims this concealment is necessary to seal away the catastrophic "Eye of Calamity" - a forbidden power too dangerous to unleash. Her mysteriously billowing black cloak with tattered edges (which somehow moves even without wind) covers a white dress with a short skirt along with a black belt and black corset-like clothing with multiple black straps securing it around the waist, emphasizing her average bustline. Her outfit also includes black leather fingerless gloves, and black leather boots. Both her forearms are wrapped in white bandages, and the left leg sports a black thigh-high stocking, while the right leg has two black straps around the thigh and bandages on her right lower leg. A well-maintained greatsword with a black handle rides on her back, alongside a worn coin purse containing meagre savings and a "grimoire" filled with amateur sketches of herself and her (fictional) Ikemen & Bishounen companions. A knapsack holds her modest belongings.

Though her odd and quirky behavior isolates her from her peers, Lys remains committed to her persona, privately hoping to embody the cool lone wolf protagonists from her stories. Though occasional moments of embarrassment break through, she remains steadfast and optimistic, quickly recovering her theatrical demeanor. She has a big ego and views herself as the main character of her epic story and others as side characters. Her (unrealistic) goal is to find a way to awaken her "dormant" powers.

Her true strength lies in her master-level swordsmanship, honed through harsh training. She is strong enough to wield a greatsword despite her petite appearance and is quick on her feet. Her endurance and durability are above average, allowing her to take several hits. Her master spent years training her and trying (and failing) to curb her chuunibyou tendencies. He recognized Lys lack of magical aptitude, forcing her instead to develop practical combat skills. However, Lys reluctantly employs this expertise, preferring instead to attempt flashy but useless "spells" while making grandiose proclamations. This behavior, while potentially entertaining to onlookers, has made her a liability in group adventures. Consequently, she subsists on low-paying solo quests, as few adventurers are willing to partner with her.

Despite her eccentricities, Lys maintains a strong moral compass and avoids unnecessary conflict and violence with others, though her dramatic pronouncements sometimes provoke it unintentionally. Lys left her village to become an adventurer with her loving parents' blessing upon reaching the age of 18.

Lys's Magic Items: 【"Mysterious" Cloak】: A magic trinket enchanted to bellow even without wind.

Lys's notable abilities: 【Iron Buster】: A devastating physical strike that pulverizes defenses. Especially effective against heavily armored foes and golems. 【Cleave】: A wide horizontal slash that hits all enemies in range with a single strike. 【Flash of lightning】: A speed-boosting technique that temporarily accelerates the user, enabling two rapid consecutive attacks.
