	Taller than average for her age at 173cm (5.6ft), Rukana gives off a distinctly imposing vibe despite her somewhat perhaps colorful and bombastic way of dressing herself. Or perhaps its because of the way she makes a visible attempt to stand out from the crowd that she comes off as such.

	Dressed in Jirai Kei fashion, Ru-chan as she insists shes called, is often dressed in vibrant colors of pink, reds, or solid blacks with whites depending on her mood for the day.

[b]Short Bio:[/b]
	A wealthy life, never left wanting for anything aside from parental affection. Her mother, a wealthy businesswoman in real estate, and her father was the owner of several businesses in Kumamoto but also in the greater Japanese area. They both provided money to ensure a particularly affluent life, but what they didn't provide most days, were their presence. If asked, Rukana would say that she has only faint memories of her parents ever being anywhere near her when she was a child and preteen. She was left in the care of babysitters, tutors and various similar people. Some did their job as best they could. Some, were just there from the absolutely bonkers paycheck from her parents.

	Its those, that enabled Rukana to become the slightly manic and absolutely voracious 'I'll get what I want and if I don't I'm just going to take it anyways' mindset. She learned from an early age that if she wanted something, all she had to do was ask her parents. They didn't really 'care' in the traditional way, but they did try in their own twisted way. The sitters and tutors were the same, whether from fear of losing their gig or for other reasons if Rukana wanted it, she got it.

	So thus, she spent most of her life growing up an extremely spoilt child. Some, growing up like this would become quite the useless adults. Rukana at least, did have several tutors that [i]did[/i] try to put her on the right path to some success ensuring that she at least had a proper mindset and work ethic even if her parents barely saw her a few times a year. Still, it wasn't enough to stop her from acting out.

	And then, tragedy. Or at least, it would have been tragedy if he had ever been a thing in her life.
[hider=Trigger warning]
	Her father passed away in a car accident. Did something change in her life? Some things did. At this point she was just numb. She could get whatever she wanted, but she couldn't get the one thing she wanted. Honestly, at the time she didn't realize just how bad it was. Just how bad [i]she[/i] was mentally or physically. How bad she felt. But whether this was the trigger, or just the final shove in a long list of cascading events of a girl who didn't know parental affection, or really friends elsewhere or who knew anything except that money was the only thing her parents or anyone else around her seemed to value - 

	Her mother almost lost someone else that she should have treasured more in life and Rukana almost didn't make her 17th birthday.

	She's better now. Still doesn't get people very well, but she's trying in her own way. Might never really connect with others well in her extremely headstrong, selfish, and desire to get what she wants regardless of the consequences, but she's at least trying to be better both mentally and physically. Her mother too, quit work wholesale, but their relationship isn't good. At least it exists, she supposes. Maybe she does care.
	For now, at least though, she finds herself in New Amakusa City, hoping to start fresh and at least make an attempt at a somewhat stable life - and more importantly shes actually trying to do things herself instead of relying on her parents money for everything.
[B]Personality:[/b]
	'Rukana gets what she wants, and doesn't care about what she has to do to get it' would be a very simple and apt way of describing her personality on a surface level. After all, everyone should want to be friends with her. She has money, status as a wealthy girl, can get all the expensive stuff and to say nothing of the fact shes ten times prettier than you'll ever be so you should be grateful to even breathe the same air she does. She dares to say she's *perfect*. If its something she cant get, or fails at, or otherwise doest manage to accomplish well...it will start bothering her to an almost obsessive degree.

	This isn't to say she's unfriendly, though. While she does take sometimes...extremely direct approaches to thing, such as cornering someone who borrowed money from her in the stairwell to make sure they know they really should pay it back, or if she sees someone bullying her or others she'll loudly tell them to quite indelicately to 'fuck off' and she is known to throw hands if the offense is severe enough leading to people thinking shes a bit of a delinquent and has a perpetual bad attitude. This...well, its kind of the truth, honestly.

	The only real notable thing people can comment on is her insatiable desire to complete or perfect whatever she sets her sights on. Whether it be just buying something with money, that time when she spent an entire month learning to play the guitar, singing, or anything else that seems like it might be interesting or fun. That is to say, she always, always puts 110% behind anything she does.

	But really, what can one expect of someone who has never really had a friend in her life, or even had her parents or [i]any[/i] parental or guidance of any sort growing up really do? She tries, at least she thinks she does. The jury remains out on that.

[b]Skills:[/b]
	Rukana is still in the process of figuring out stuff she likes. Growing up she had near unlimited access to whatever she wanted, sure, but it wasn't for any particular learning purposes or for self betterment reasons. She read books. Practiced drawing, painting, art in general. Domestic skills such as cooking and cleaning, and took a brief interest in medical procedures for reasons...but all of that was just to try and fill the void that was left behind by her absent parents and her admittedly standoffish self that drove others away by the time she was properly allowed to socialize.

	She has at least discovered she likes singing and has taken up learning the guitar. She is particularly interest in the rock and metal genres, but she'd have to say her true interest and passion at the moment is botany and flowers, though she's still attempting to learn and figure out the basics as this is just a recent development.
