Name:
Yoneda Sayuri

Facade:
Sayuri's the definition of a curious cat. She craves adventure and intrigue, and has been known to research different topics in order to sate her interest. Gullible, naive, and almost overly sweet, Sayuri can be considered a pushover to those who don't know her well. She's also somewhat clingy and has been known to shadow people she considers friends. She's definitely a follower rather than a leader, and this might tie into the fact that she was a social outcast during her early youth. When nervous or afraid, she doesn't speak much, and hardly knows how to stand up for herself. At least she's trying to better herself.

Core:
Sayuri pursues the unnatural happenings merely out of curiosity. She wants to know who's the culprit behind them, and hopefully figure out if they pose a threat to herself or those she cares about.

Name:
Sakurazawa Akio (“Aki”)

Façade:
Tall, broad shouldered, well-built, and tanned, Akio is someone who obviously spends a lot of time outside and exercises regularly. His gait is confident yet subtly graceful. Aki is known for his trade-mark cocky smirk, and his gaze is full of challenge. Actually, he had often been reprimanded for glaring when younger, but had always replied that it is just the face he had been born with. It is true to an extent, but it is also obvious that he has gladly cultivated his aura of intimidation. However, he enjoys the company of others, and is sometimes overbearing in his attempts to get along with people. He’s rough around the edges, but generally good-hearted, and not one to hold grudges. Though he has been known to be almost too eager to get into a brawl (especially during high-school), he has always excused his behavior as him teaching bullies a lesson. Aki is a fan of friendly rough-housing, as it has often been a bonding opportunity in his experience. He appreciates challenges, competitions, and rivalries. Akio is most suited to sports and practical know-how, but he is ambitious, dedicated, and business-oriented enough to do well in his studies.

Core:
Akio has plans for this town, and these plans don’t include leaving unsolved mysteries be. He is a man of action, a lover of thrills, and honestly, his aggression happens to include self-destructive tendencies. He has a burning desire to leave a mark on the world – make a name for himself for the right reasons – and is unafraid to adopt slightly questionable methods to do so (such as vandalism in the form of graffiti). He enjoys adventure, and is the type to seek out new, even dangerous things. Aki has also been taught that it is a good deed to protect others, which is something he strives to do in daily life.

_WHO ARE YOU?
Kurosawa Marc

WHO _ARE YOU?
Marc is the kind of person to easily stand out in a crowd, whether it be through his flashy natural blonde hair or his gigantic height. He's decently toned as well, but besides that, only things that seem to be fake about him are his eyes and glasses; he actually has blue eyes, plus the lenses are popped out of the glasses. Beyond that all, there's a glint of mischief in his eyes, as well as a conceited smile plastered on his face at all times and that extends to his personality. Marc postures himself as two differently contrasting things, either attempting to come off as this strong, silent cool dude or this blowhard boaster who'll peacock himself the moment you get him talking. While he is an attention whore, it's difficult to determine if he really is blowing steam or not, especially since this a personality he cultivated throughout high-school. Transferred there from Europe and was generally a weird loner for the most part till something happened and he slowly built up himself into this intolerable, obnoxious twat. He still is like that, despite attending University and having a part-time job. Beyond this, Marc has a love for parkour, the occult, and dogs, though he can't afford the latter for myriads of reasons. Furthermore, he seems to be performing well at the University, despite seemingly not studying for his classes.

WHO ARE _YOU?
Because he wants to.

That's it. Did you honestly expect something deeper, like murdering the people who stole your arms or internal organs or something? No, no, he just wants to learn the truth of this city, about what lies beyond the veil, what lies underneath all the apathy, the bullshit. That unquenchable thirst is what drives him forward, towards discovering the truth of this place. If he has to postulate or humiliate himself to get to it, then so be it.

That's all.

WHY OBSCURE _YOURSELF?
Matsushita Haruka

WHY _OBSCURE YOURSELF?
Despite his fashion, Haruka is quite introspective and quiet, often keeping to himself or fidgeting around with his fingers appearing absolutely bored. He does avert his gaze even though his eyes betray his true feelings, as these bright, blue eyes seem to illuminate much more. Furthermore, he comes off as someone who is blind without his glasses and can be described as timid and shyby most, especially with his short stature. Even so, there is some strange level of detachment from reality, coming off as sleepy or not completely there in the head. While he did dye his hair, he hasn't for the longest time, living the tips of his hair blonde. Haruka has lived in Tenoroshi his entire life, but was really no different than the apathetic faces in the crowd who just goes through the motions. For the most part, he was an inoffensive, friendly student who never really stood out from the rest, never really joined any clubs, and could often be found standing at the top floor of the building, looking down on the world. Most assumed he was like this due to his divorced parents, resulting in him living with his dad, while others thought his mom mysteriously vanished one day. Regardless of what was said, his detached demeanor wouldn't change, even when he entered Uni, pursuing a degree in Business. Has displayed an immense amount of interest in the Marine Biology Program there and seems to love going to the beach. Is incredibly bad at chess, though he enjoys playing it.

_WHY OBSCURE YOURSELF?
Because he's curious about people who seek the truth.

Morita Fumiko
Facade
Fumiko is somewhat reserved, and with her quiet air some people find her hard to approach. She is the type to endure something unpleasant with a strained smile, and then spend the next few hours complaining about how awful it was after it is resolved. Some would say that her patience has been waning since she started college, however.

Fumiko had a fairly normal high school experience; okay grades, diligently worked with her clubs and classmates, graduated and got into college. But anyone who knew her would notice that her behavior began to change after that. She appeared to be more anxious, always glancing around her. She began wandering the campus at night, and would occasionally disappear from class without warning. Sometimes, even walking out in the middle of class.

The truth is that Fumiko expected something to change when she went to university. But it didn't. She felt like she was going in circles. And she saw ahead of her - an almost guaranteed job at the same company that her dad worked at. She began to wonder if her entire life was set in stone already. And even later, she began to wonder if she could push against the cage she finds herself in.

Core
Fumiko's recent anxiety about her future has made her yearn for the unknown. Something she's never experienced, something mysterious, maybe even dangerous. Searching for the unknown is what she does to see if her life really is on rails or not.
