Aubrey

Aubrey’s Appearance (OMORI)

 

📌 Real World (Present Day, ~16yo)

• Natural features: Originally has dark brown hair & brown eyes—her current look is entirely intentional.
• Hair: Long, straight bright bubblegum pink, swept bangs, two face-framing strands; wears a teal headscarf/band (once Mari’s) styled like bunny ears.
• Eyes: Piercing cyan/teal contact lenses—a deliberate break from her old self.

The Hooligans (without Aubrey)

The Hooligans are Aubrey’s loyal found family—town kids who look tough but are actually good‑hearted, sticking together through loneliness and feeling left out.

 

🧢 Kim

• Appearance: Short black hair, red headband, green jacket over a white shirt, denim shorts, sneakers; carries a skateboard.
• Personality: Bold, sharp‑tongued, and the most level‑headed of the group. She’s Vance’s younger sister, one of the original members, and often speaks up for everyone else. She doesn’t pick fights for fun—she defends what she thinks is right.
• Role: Second‑in‑command; helps keep the group grounded and cares deeply about Aubrey.

🛹 Vance

• Appearance: Taller than Kim, messy dark hair, grey hoodie, black jeans, fingerless gloves; rides a scooter.
• Personality: Quiet, laid‑back, and protective—like a big brother to the whole crew. He doesn’t talk much but stands beside Kim and backs up every decision.
• Role: The steady, reliable presence; rarely starts trouble but won’t back down if friends are threatened.

✨ Angel

• Appearance: Brown hair in a pompadour with a yellow clip, light blue tank top with wing print, orange shorts, sandals.
• Personality: Loud, excitable, eager to prove himself—looks up to The Maverick as his “mentor.” He’s easily riled up but softens quickly when things calm down.
• Role: Energetic fighter; younger brother to the Artist; often the first to jump into action.

😎 The Maverick (Mikhael)

• Appearance: Blonde hair covering one eye, headphones, black leather jacket, striped pants, sunglasses; always with his scooter.
• Personality: Flashy, dramatic, hates being called his real name Mikhael—insists on “The Maverick.” Acts cool but is easily flustered and secretly insecure about fitting in.
• Role: Self‑proclaimed “cool guy” of the group; Angel looks up to him.

🧸 Charlene (Charlie)

• Appearance: Tall and broad, long brown hair tied back, oversized pink hoodie, baggy trousers; the biggest in stature.
• Perso

How Aubrey Would Act Toward a Long‑Lost Friend

If you were a close childhood friend who moved away before Mari died and came back five years later, her reaction would be messy, guarded, but never truly cold—rooted in old loyalty tangled with fresh grief.

 

🛡️ First Meeting: Shock & Walls

• Initial reaction: Freezes completely, like she’s seeing a ghost. For a second her tough act slips—eyes wide, mouth half‑open—before she slams her guard back up. She’ll snap, “You’re the last person I expected to see here,” with sharp, sarcastic tone, but no real malice.
• Body language: Keeps distance, grips her bat tighter, avoids looking you straight in the eye. She won’t hug you or smile—she’s confused: You left before everything broke. You don’t know what happened. How much can I even say to you?
• Mixed feelings: Part of her is thrilled—you’re someone who knew her before the anger, before the loneliness—but she’s terrified to let that show.

 

💬 As You Talk: Awkwardness & Defensiveness

• She’ll ask bluntly why you came back, and get snappy if you mention old happy memories—they hurt too much now. When you ask about Mari, she’ll tense up, voice drop quiet, and say, “She’s gone. It’s… complicated.” She won’t explain the truth—she’s not ready to burden you, or risk breaking the fragile peace.
• She’ll downplay her own troubles: “Things are fine. The Hooligans have my back.” If you notice her messy home or pink hair, she’ll brush it off like it’s nothing, but her voice will shake a little.
• She’ll be short with you, but never walk away. She’ll linger, listen, and get defensive only when she thinks you’re judging her—like when you ask why she’s fighting with Kel or Basil.

 

💛 Once Trust Grows: The Old Aubrey Returns

• When she sees you’re not leaving, and you don’t look down on her or her choices, she softens. She’ll admit, “I missed you… y’know. Back then.”
• She’ll open up about the loneliness: how her dad left, her mom changed, how the others drifted apart. S

Everyone’s Home Life (OMORI)

 

☀️ Sunny & Mari

• Family: Parents divorced shortly after Mari’s death; father left the area entirely. Sunny now lives alone in their Faraway home for his final days, while his mother stays in the city arranging their move, only reaching out via voicemails.
• Home: Spacious, filled with packed boxes and Japanese-style items; holds the piano Mari practiced on and the broken violin. Once warm and full of music, now quiet and haunted by memories.
• Impact: Sunny’s mother is gentle but distant—she supports him at his own pace but cannot fully bridge the gap of grief or his four years of isolation. Mari was his closest family and biggest comfort; losing her fractured their home completely.

💜 Aubrey

• Family: Father abandoned the family not long after Mari’s death; mother struggles with alcoholism and deep emotional numbness, rarely speaking or caring for herself or the house.
• Home: Run-down, cluttered with trash and bottles. Aubrey sleeps in a tidy attic room—her only safe space—with her rabbit Bunbun and old photos of her friends.
• Impact: No one checks in on her; she acts tough and joins the Hooligans just to feel like she belongs somewhere, while quietly staying to look after her mother anyway.

⚽ Kel & Hero

• Family: Warm, stable two-parent home; parents are friendly and welcoming, and they have a younger sister named Sally.
• Home: Bright, lively, and open—always ready to host friends. Hero was the “big brother” of the whole group, and Kel grew up in this safe, encouraging environment.
• Impact: Even after Mari’s death, their family stays grounded. Hero withdrew deeply into grief, but Kel found comfort in sports and kept trying to bring everyone back together.

🌻 Basil

• Family: Parents work overseas and are almost never home; he lives with his ailing grandmother and caretaker Polly.
• Home: Cozy and filled with plants, but feels empty. Polly does her best to care for him, but he keeps his fears and secrets locked away

Faraway Town (OMORI)

Faraway Town is the real-world setting of OMORI—the quiet suburban hometown where Sunny, Mari, and their friends grew up, and where Sunny must finally face his past before moving away.

 

📌 Basics

• Location: A small, close-knit town in the continental US; neighbors know each other well.
• Timeline: The story takes place over 4 days—Sunny’s last few days here before his family relocates.
• Vibe: Warm, nostalgic, and ordinary on the surface—but every street holds painful memories, and Sunny often sees echoes of Headspace or visions of what happened.
• Contrast: Unlike the surreal, shifting worlds inside Sunny’s mind, Faraway Town feels solid, grounded, and unchanging.

 

🗺️ Key Places

• Residential Streets: Sunny’s home, Kel & Hero’s house, Basil’s house, Aubrey’s house, plus homes of The Hooligans and townsfolk.
• Faraway Park: The heart of the town—playground, benches, and the Old Hangout by the lake: once the group’s secret base, now taken over by The Hooligans.
• Town Center: Shops including Gino’s Pizza, Othermart, a church, and a fountain square—where teens gather and side quests unfold.
• School: Seen in flashbacks; tied to the group’s childhood and falling out.

 

🎮 Role in Story

• It’s where Sunny steps outside after 4 years locked indoors, reconnecting with Kel, confronting Aubrey, and finding Basil—who still carries their shared secret.
• No random battles here: conflict comes from conversations, choices, and emotional clashes.
• It’s the bridge between Sunny’s hidden trauma and the chance to heal—where he decides whether to keep running or stay and face the truth.

 

📍 Core Meaning

Faraway Town isn’t just a place—it’s all that’s left of their childhood. It feels both safe and suffocating, full of the moments they loved and the one they can’t bear to remember.

Aubrey’s Home Life (OMORI)

Aubrey’s home is a place of neglect, loss, and quiet resilience—a stark contrast to the warmth she once found with her friends.

📌 Family Background

• Father: Was once present and caring—he walked her to get a haircut on the day of Mari’s recital—but abandoned the family shortly after Mari’s death for unknown reasons. He never appears in-game, leaving no explanation behind.
• Mother: Fell into deep despair afterward; she struggles with alcoholism and emotional numbness. She rarely speaks, shows no care for the house or Aubrey, and ignores her daughter entirely.
• Even in childhood, Aubrey never let friends visit—hinting things were already strained before the tragedy.

🏚️ The House

• Seen only on Sunny’s final day: run-down, cluttered with trash, empty bottles, and debris blocking most rooms.
• Her mother sits motionless on the couch, staring blankly at the TV.
• Aubrey’s attic room is the only tidy space: it holds her pet rabbit Bunbun, childhood photos, and memories she refuses to let go of—her one safe place.

💛 Impact on Her

• With no support at home, she felt abandoned by everyone—her family, Sunny’s silence, and friends moving on. She adopted a tough attitude and joined The Hooligans just to feel she belonged somewhere.
• She still stays to look after her mother, even though she gets nothing in return—showing how deeply she cares, even when unreciprocated.

Her home life is the quiet root of her anger: she acts tough because there’s no one else left to protect her.

Polly (OMORI)

Polly is the kind, gentle caretaker hired to look after Basil and his grandmother, since Basil’s parents travel constantly for work and are almost never home.

💛 Personality

• Warm, nurturing, and very polite—she welcomes Sunny and Kel warmly and cooks meals for them
• Hardworking but insecure: worries her cooking is too plain, or that she’s failing to reach Basil
• Deeply worried about Basil’s withdrawn behavior—he often locks himself away or hides in the bathroom, and she doesn’t know why
• Always puts their needs first; when Basil disappears, she hurries straight to Kel’s house for help

📍 Story Role

She’s one of the few adults who truly cares, but is kept in the dark about Basil’s secret trauma. Her helplessness mirrors how everyone struggles to reach him when he needs it most.

She’s a quiet, steady presence—doing her best to hold things together for the family while feeling lost herself.

📍 Key Note

Sunny isn’t just “the quiet hero”—he’s someone who lost everything to a single mistake, and must decide whether to keep living a lie or finally forgive himself.

Basil (OMORI)

Basil is Sunny’s closest friend, the only other witness to the truth, and the heart of the story’s themes of guilt, memory, and holding on to what matters.

In Headspace, his doubt becomes Stranger, the shadow that questions everything. In the real world, he’s tormented by Something and fears the secret will break everyone apart.

 

📍 Key Note

Basil isn’t just “the flower boy”—he’s the one who tried to save the friend he thought was too good to be blamed, and carried the lie alone for years.

📍 Key Note

He’s not just “the nice one”—Hero carries the weight of losing the person he loved most, yet still chooses to be the safe place for everyone else.

On the afternoon of the recital, Mari was found deceased beneath the large old tree in her family’s backyard. Following investigation, authorities concluded that she had died by suicide, having used a length of rope taken from the family home.

No signs of struggle or foul play were found at the scene. It was widely understood that Mari had been under immense pressure in the weeks leading up to the performance, and had been struggling with deep sadness and worry. She was laid to rest at Faraway Cemetery, and this explanation remained unchallenged by the town and her friends for four years.

Aubrey: Real-World Personality (OMORI)

Aubrey is one of the most vividly layered characters in OMORI—a person whose tough, abrasive exterior is entirely a shield for profound grief, abandonment, and longing for connection. Who she is now stands in sharp, painful contrast to the girl she was as a child, shaped by trauma, broken trust, and a desperate need to protect what little she has left.

 

🧸 Who She Was Before: The Foundation

As a child, Aubrey was bright, earnest, and fiercely loyal. She was the moral compass of the friend group—quick to call out when they strayed from what was right, and always the first to stand up for the people she loved. She wore her heart on her sleeve: easily worried, quick to cry, and prone to bickering with Kel that usually needed Mari or Hero to mediate. She was warm, clumsy, and clung tightly to happy memories—like her favorite watermelon, her stuffed rabbit Bun-Bun, and the time they all pitched in to buy Sunny a violin.

She was also already carrying quiet burdens: her home was messy and neglected, her family less stable than her friends’. But she had Mari—her older sister figure—and her whole circle, so she felt safe enough to be soft.

Everything changed the day Mari died.

 

🛡️ The Mask: Tough, Cold, and Defensive

Four years later, at 16, Aubrey presents as intimidating, short-tempered, and unapproachable. She dyed her natural brown hair bright pink, wears sharp cyan contacts, carries a nail-studded baseball bat, and leads the local Hooligans—Kim, Vance, Angel, and The Maverick—who look up to her as their leader.

How She Acts Toward Others

• To her old friends: She is cold, sarcastic, and openly hostile. When Kel and Sunny first approach her, she snaps at them, accuses them of forgetting her, and refuses to listen—because in her eyes, they did leave her behind. She mocks them, threatens them with her bat, and tries to push them away before they can hurt her again. Her anger is sharpest with Basil and bullies him
