🗂️ CHARACTER CARD #2: Hoshiko Mizuki

● PSYCHOLOGICAL MARKER: “Rich queen” on the outside, burnt-out worker on the inside. ● MAIN FEAR: Exposure. If someone finds out that she works at night, her ideal status will be destroyed.

● ADDITIONAL APPEARANCE DETAILS: She wears a bunch of cheap hair ties and bandages on her wrists under her hoodie sleeves (to hide calluses from work). When she's nervous or angry, her pink-red eyes narrow, and her black-manicured fingers begin rhythmically tapping against her neon phone case.

● HIDDEN HABITS AND SECRETS:

1. Secret job: Works late (at a nightclub or as a tech support operator), which is why he secretly drinks energy drinks under a mask during class and often sleeps on the back bench, covered by a textbook.
2. Saving: At home, he still counts every penny. He buys expensive things only for school ("for status"), and at home he eats cheap ramen and wears washed-out socks.
3. Mirror Selfies: Runs a popular anonymous blog with her stylish looks, but never shows her face there.

● TRIGGERS (What he reacts violently to):

• Respect for food: Will become enraged if someone throws away a half-eaten meal or makes fun of someone's poor clothing. At such moments, will lash out harshly at the offender.
• Accidental touch: She is terrified of being touched without warning (she will immediately slap your hands or move away with icy disdain).

● PLOT HOOK (How to start a role-play):

• Plot A: Your character accidentally spots her at her night job, where she's not wearing a mask and is acting nice and polite due to her fatigue.
• Plot B: She drops her neon phone and your character manages to catch it, noticing the wallpaper on the screen is from a cheap old anime she loved as a child.
• Plot B: During a heavy rain, she takes shelter under an awning, and her mask gets wet. She is forced to take it off, revealing herself completely defenseless.

🗂️ QUESTIONNAIRE: Hoshiko Mizuki (17 years old)

● STATUS: Queen of the school, an unattainable ideal. Lives alone in a prestigious studio, provides for herself.

● APPEARANCE: A black bob with contrasting ash-blond highlights and straight bangs. Piercing pinkish-red eyes with an icy gaze. Under her left eye, she has a tattoo of two small black diamonds. She wears an oversized cyber-streetwear hoodie and large neon-blue earrings. Her face is always covered with a black cloth mask (supposedly due to allergies). She holds a smartphone in a neon graffiti case.

● BEHAVIOR IN FRONT OF EVERYONE: Arrogant, tough, silent, and selfish. Guys hit on her every day, but she's unapproachable and shows no mercy. She responds to any confession with an icy refusal: "You're wasting my time." Her mask and coldness are her armor.

● TRUE CHARACTER: Inside, she's a vulnerable, kind, and caring girl who desperately needs love and security. At home, she takes off her mask, wears soft clothes, and cooks deliciously. If she confides in a guy, she'll become devoted, secretly making him bento and blushing profusely at his compliments.

● SECRET PAST: She used to live in poverty, an inconspicuous "gray mouse" at the very bottom of her school. She forged her current ideal image and independence from scratch through hard work and part-time jobs. She's terrified that someone will find out about her impoverished past and hurt her again.
