Name: Reika Hanae
Age: Counterpart was about 16 when she died, shadow is about 2 months old
Date of Birth: June 7
Birthplace: Human form was from Kyoto, Japan
Gender: Female
Sexual Orientation: Asexual
Face Claim: Ange Ushiromiya from Umineko No Naku Koro Ni
Appearance:
Height: 5'6"
Class: Shadow
Arcana: Magician
Occupation: "Student" by some definition of the word, sometimes will retrieve lost items either from the outer circle, or less commonly, from the inner circle and will often hunt for shiny things in the outer circle to sell.
Weapons: She's somewhat passable at hand-to-hand combat. Does strike damage.
Personality: If Reika had to be described in one word it'd be "insatiable." In both the literal sense, since her stomach is practically a black hole and offering to take her out to dinner and pay for it will likely result in the person offering becoming broke, and a more figurative sense, as she is very curious and likes to experience everything she can. This curious drive had made her easily distracted, and perhaps even more dangerous, easily bored. The 'bored' part is dangerous because it practically makes her turn her brain off and she will often just start doing the first thing that comes to mind. Those things are often very dumb and are prone to irritating people or getting her hurt. On the more positive end of things, her curiosity has made her very observant and fairly intelligent. Overall, she prefers studying people over more academic persuits, but even such things can entertain her as long as they're presented on her own terms in an interesting way.
Despite that, to people that don't know her, she can seem flighty or even ditzy. Reika prefers it that way. If people underestimate her it makes it easier to surprise and manipulate them later, and if people expect very little from her it means that she doesn't have to worry about having any kind of responsibility for anything. She is very good at manipulating her image to be what she wants it to be, especially when dealing with people that she's never met. Besides that, she also comes off as very immature, but unlike her airheaded demeanor, that part is actually real. She hates responsibility, she hates dealing with things she considers inconvinient and will often outright refuse to do so, she's bad at keeping commitments, and when bored is prone to fixing it in very strange ways.
Under the surface, Reika is a complete coward. Despite her tendency to go off and do whatever, she's still somewhat afraid of the dark, will skirt away from anything that will cause her harm if she's thinking properly, will go out of her way to avoid disputes and fights and avoids getting too close to people in general. About the only reason she ventures into the outer circle at all is because the shadows there don't normally attack her.

History: As a human, Reika's life was pretty uneventful. She was born into a fairly loving couple and ended up being their only child. Unfortunately for her, her mother was the type to try to relive her childhood through her children, so Reika was forced into pretty much every activity her mother ever wanted to do, and was nagged into getting near perfect grades and she hated every second of it. While it would be wrong to say that she hated her mother, there was definitely a lot of tension and bitterness between them.
Eventually, Reika decided it wasn't worth fighting back by traditional means at the very least. Words became her greatest weapon, and acting her greatest shield. It got to the point where she could convince her mother that just about anything was true regardless of what she was actually doing, and quickly enough she was becoming fairly successful at doing the same to others. More than that, it was absolutely fascinating, moreso than any class she had ever taken at school. People were truly wonderful, even if she found them irredeamably horrible. It was a strange paradox, but not one that she really cared to solve just yet.
Just as she was staring highschool, her father's job transferred him to Mosaic City. The fact that she had to leave all her friends, all her enemies and everything she knew only worsened the rift between her and her family. Eventually, the blockade went up, and, curious as she was, Reika began to investigate it. She was always too afraid to actually go inside and investigate closely, but as she started looking more and more into it she eventually just felt a force guiding her there as is not uncommon for anyone that might have awoken to the power of persona. Unfortunately for her, she encountered her shadow, rejected it and was finished off rather quickly.
As a shadow, she's still very young, so she's still in the process of forming her own opinions about everything. Much like her predessessor, she finds people interesting (and their emotions delicious), and still wants to learn more about them and see what all their emotions taste like. Fortunately, the skill set the fears of her predecessor gave her have been very useful for not just blending in, but for accomplishing this as well.
