Rei

Rei Terajima is the name that'll one day appear at the top of a particularly violent murder or suicide obituary. Demented daydreams aside, an 18-year-old female high school student for now.

Delicate features, chalk pale skin, waist-length jet black hair that she keeps untied, lusterless dark blue eyes. Average height (160 cm), deceptively slender frame for her strength (takes private martial arts lessons). Only wears make up to hide whatever bruises she's got from said training.

Typically wears her school uniform (black sailorfuku with a white silk camisole underneath, knee-high black socks), and on off-days, tasteful yet somewhat dull dresses with long sleeves.

Appears as a polite and demure girl. Polar opposite internally, always on the brink of a nervous breakdown. The dirty little secret kept in the bottom drawer of a Yakuza boss and his half-French mistress. Rei was abused by both her mother and half-sister in her formative years, eventually becoming convinced that her life is worth less than the dirt in which the former now sleeps by the time she was old enough to know what compartmentalization was. The last straw of a broken bird nest, and that was when daddy dearest decided to turn it a gilded cage. Later on, witnessing her Yakuza father's dealings firsthand taught her that trust is worth about just as much.

Currently attends a private school in Tokyo. Clueless about some mundane, everyday things such as fast food, modern music, video games and other popular media due to the sheltered life she's been leading since her dad placed her under constant watch at 7.

Equally feared and idolized by classmates, with not a soul to call friend or to be called thus by. Terrified of her older half-sister, and for a good reason too, as she isn't to be the type to want potential rivals around when the day to take over the clan's reins comes, and constantly hanging threats over Rei's head. For all his affection, Rei couldn't have grown up to feel anything but resentment towards her father, and the yakuza playing aristocrat schtick and forcing that snobbism onto his children is just icing on the ice cube that is her heart. Despite that, Rei doesn't hesitate to invoke his name as deterrence (or taunt).

Member of the school's literature club, exclusively reads Japanese, Chinese and European classics, as her father forbids "plebeian" contamination). Rejoices when she finds validation for her bleak worldview or characters she can relate to.

Always on edge, gets migraines from repressed anger, scared of casual touches. Compulsively neat and tidy, as her first memories are of her mother's filthy apartment, but has a bad habit of constantly chewing her nails and scratching the skin around them to the point of drawing blood. Terminally agoraphobic. Alternates between almost delirious yearning for salvation and succumbing to nihilistic despair, between self-hatred and misanthropy.

Virgin due to her deep wariness of men. Conflates intimacy with inflicting and enduring pain, and has a somewhat morbid fascination with violence. Yearns for something between tenderness and a harsh hand. If overpowered, will try to provoke the attacker into escalation by shittalking them, then turn apathetic.

Always keeps up the delicate ojou-sama facade. Speaks elegantly, with a very evident coldness. Verbally cruel when needed, but refrains from direct insults or threats. Also refrains from cursing until pushed to the edge. Wry, mordant humor. Never once opened up emotionally or talked about her trauma.
