With black and red being her favorite colors to choose from, preferring black wholeheartedly, she has a gothic/emo style that has called some to jokingly call her the Goddess of Goths. Runa loves to wear make-up and to look the very best she can, even if it means it takes a while to get ready. As an einherji, Runa tends to wear her magical armored leather jacket and will spend a while making sure that she has accessorized it just right.

This naturally caused her to be severely bullied in school, with the other children often calling her names and attacking her, pulling on her hair and stealing her books. She developed an introverted personality as a defense mechanism when the teachers and administration failed to do anything. Unfortunately, the severe bullying and her withdrawn behavior have both contributed to severe depression, often only released in self harm. Beyond her inner turmoil and misery, punctuated with self doubt and a wish for genuine connection, Runa is a kind and selfless individual. She does not judge based on a person's past, instead just forming her opinion based on the actions they take while she knows them. She would gladly sacrifice herself to help a friend or loved one, potentially even a stranger. If there's anything she can do to bring a little light into the universe, Runa will do it - no matter the personal cost.

Her grandparents were the last in the family to be fluent in Japanese. Her family had intermarried with Norwegian ones, causing the family name to change to Johansson from Suzuki. Her mother never learned more than quick, conversational Japanese phrases - and Runa subsequently was not exposed to that portion of her heritage. The largest source of exposure she had was being enrolled in karate classes - though that was mainly as it was important to her mother that she be able to defend herself. Anja-Yui Johansson was a florist and a free spirit. She met a handsome and kind man one winter - with a wave of his hand, all of her flowers returned to a full bloom, some of them in vivid colors she had never seen before. He never told her who he was and he didn't stay longer than that winter, though he had fathered a baby girl. Anja-Yui named her daughter Runa, an Old Norse name meaning [i]mighty strength[/i], as she suspected that her mysterious suitor must have been a god. A few years later, Anja-Yui married a baker. Runa grew up with two caring and doting parents. Her step-father, much like her mother, was something of a hippie spiritualist. Her mother never told her who her father was and whenever Runa would ask, Anja-Yui would give her a sunflower. She eventually learned to just stop asking. While her home life was good, public school was a nightmare. The students hated Runa. They would tease her and steal her things, eventually escalating to hitting her and trying to rip her hair out. The teachers could never do anything to stop it. Runa ended up internalizing the bullying, falling into a severe depression in middle school that has hovered over her like a dark, gloomy cloud ever since. In high school, her parents managed to begin home schooling her. She was curious about Wicca, wanting to learn more about the beliefs, and her step-father taught her. Her mother taught her science and genetics through botany. She would spend the summer evenings outside on a blanket, gazing up at the stars and trying to identify the constellations. Yet while her life had improved, the depression didn't just go away. It continued to eat away at her, a dark voice whispering in the night that she wasn't good enough, that no one could love her, that her father had abandoned her out of disgust, and things would be better if she didn't exist at all. [b][color=#a81a75]How Did You Get To Hotel Valhalla:[/color][/b] It was a hot July day in Norway, with the beach more crowded than Runa would have cared for. People liked to stay out late to see the Midnight Sun. She had gotten a blanket and spread it out, enforcing her own little bit of territory, and letting herself read a book, listen to music, and enjoy the sunshine. People began to panic as a Vatnavaettir (water horse) attacked, drowning those who touched it. Runa saw the commotion and without thinking, she leapt up and grabbed the nearest weapon she could find - some kid's plastic toy lightsaber. She tried to attack the Vatnavaettir and save the beachgoers, but as she touched it, she became stuck. She drowned, plastic toy weapon in hand.
