Erin Jinnouchi

Erin Jinnouchi, aliased as Disconnect, is a student of Hope's Peak Academy, and the leading Headmaster of the 1890s Themed Island Killing Game featured in the Danganronpa RP Hub. Her title is the Ultimate Author [ lit. Super High School Level Author. ]
==Appearance==
Disconnect is a short teenager who has creamy pale skin and long black hair. She has yellow eyes and she wears rectangular black and yellow glasses. She wears a light brown cardigan over a black hoodie with white straps. She wears light brown shorts and white and black boots. She also wears a black beret.
As a disembodied voice, Disconnect has no physical form, only speaking to people as if she's a voice inside their heads.
During Chapter 3's Overheat motive, she wore a sweatshirt and tied her hair to a high ponytail.
==Personality==
Disconnect is a quiet girl, though not shy. She spends most of her time by herself, writing short stories and novels instead of socializing with others. Despite being semi-introverted, she still enjoys talking to others, but she can be a bit snarky and sarcastic, though not rude. Disconnect is also incredibly casual, especially with her speech, saying things like "O-M-G" or "I-D-K". Disconnect explains that she's casual despite being an author is because it's tiring being formal and proper, and she saves her formality for her novels. Although Disconnect does switch to having proper speech and grammar from time to time. Disconnect can be annoying to some people.
Despite Disconnect's funny side, that is not all she is. Sometimes, she can get deadly serious. There are also times that she can be cruel and stubborn. There are also times when she can be sad an feel pity (as evident during her behavior in Chapter 5). There are also times where she can be somewhat unhinged and frustrated. And there are also times where, despite the power she has, can feel threatened and out of control. This happens most of the time when she is told a certain trigger word, or talking about her motives in the Killing Game. In short, Disconnect's personality is very complicated and changes very often from time to time.
==Talents and Abilities==
===Ultimate Author===
Disconnect is a child prodigy in English literature and has make multiple novels as she grows up. She was able to earn a lot of money and become a famous writer, and thus Hope's Peak Academy scouted her as the Ultimate Author.
There is currently an unknown fact that this talent of hers may be a fluke (judging from a lawsuit found by Virgil in Chapter 2 and later found by Elise in Chapter 5). However, it is not confirmed and this rumor will most likely be shed some light by the end of the Killing Game.
===Digital Arts===
Disconnect has a large hobby on drawing and digital arts, actually being very good at it and it would almost be considered a talent. Whenever she isn't writing a novel, she would be drawing.
===Gaming===
Disconnect enjoys playing video games very often. She plays often on her laptop, but she also enjoys random mobile games. She would be too bored to care about winning or losing, so she's just average at playing games.
===Cooking and Baking===
Disconnect tried baking a few times, the only thing she makes are chocolate chip cookies. She's not very good at baking, always almost ending up burning the cookies.
Disconnect also cooks, but she can only cook breakfast food, such as eggs, bacon, spam, etc. She talked about this to Kawano once.
===Singing===
Disconnect only sings when she's alone or listening to music, not liking when others hear her. She's fairly good with singing. This was shown once a while before one of her and Kai's interactions.
==Background==
===Prior to the Tragedy===
Disconnect was born on July 3 2004, her true name is Erin Jinnouchi. Erin was born as an English Literature Child Prodigy, already learning how to make expertise books from a surprisingly young age.
Erin also has a brother who is older by three years, his name is Erich. He is actually a very vital and impactful figure in her life, but not because he was anything like the supportive/loving typical sibling love. It runs much deeper.
But one of the things Erich liked about his sister the most was her books. Obviously, Erin as a child never actually knew how to publish books to the public, so everything she wrote back then was simply a part of her collection.
One day, there was this guy who runs a film company. No, it is not Setsu, but close. It's actually Setsu's father, Reo Kuragari. Reo was travelling for a business thing and he came to Japan to stay for a week. During that time, he met Erich.
Reo was very nice to Erich, almost like an uncle figure. But true enough, that was a facade. Reo was just manipulating him. The worse thing is what happened next.
Erich, being the little fanboy of Erin's works, showed some of her private books to Reo. And of course Reo was impressed. That is why Reo decided to copy it.
He left Japan and began working on a film, copying off of one of Erin's books, without Erich or Erin's knowledge. After a long while, that film was finished and released to the public, yet without the siblings' knowledge.
Reo then called Erich up to publish that very same book. Erich thought it was a cool idea to let the public discover his prodigy sister's amazing work.
But when that book was published by Erich, everyone started to suspect Erin had copied off of Reo's film, completely unaware it was her work...
And Reo played along with it. He filed a lawsuit at Erin's family for copyright infringement, and demanded 17.95 million dollars.
Because of this, the Jinnouchi family went NEARLY BANKRUPT. After this incident, Erin's parents started blaming Erin ENDLESSLY because they didn't know it wasn't Erin's fault they became poor, they continuously abused her at home and became strict on her as she grew up. Meanwhile, Erich was treated normally.
So not only was Erin framed as a filthy plagiarizer at a young age... her family also BECAME POOR, AND HAD HER OWN PARENTS ABUSE HER FOR YEARS WHILE HER BROTHER WAS LEFT UNBLAMED. She hated Reo and his film company, and she hated her own family, her BROTHER especially.
But things got better by the time she became thirteen! Erin started actually publishing most of her other books and continued making new ones, and that got her and her family lots of money again! Hope's Peak scouted her as the Ultimate Author, and her parents forgave her!
But... she wasn't content. Forgiven or not, she was still seen as a filthy plagiarizer, and she still resented the Kuragari Film Company for what they did to her because of Reo's own greed.
Erin deeply believed in the phrase "an eye for an eye", and she decided to take revenge upon the Kuragari Film Company, by taking away their money.*It was not her own greed, but it was the anger that made her ensure the company's greed will have consequences.
She especially heard that the company's current CEO, Setsu (Reo's son), had done lots of messed up things (will not name any to protect his lore saved for Intergalactic KG) but one of those things he did was steal money from people, whether it would be simple theft or the very same of how Reo stole from Erin. Erin was absolutely disgusted at Setsu and his company.
=== The Tragedy ===
Then the Tragedy happened. Erin was able to survive and she had observed multiple killing games. Specifically, the Killing School Life (THH) as well as the three first KGs of Danganronpa Hub (Cruise Ship, Video Game, and Train Station).
She decided to take action and set her end plan, her REVENGE plan in motion.
So first off, she met up with Setsu under her alias, Disconnect. She couldn't let him know that she was the same girl who his father stole from. They made a deal. Disconnect was hired as his storywriter, and Setsu told Erin specifically to create a story from a Killing Game. She agreed, because she needed to please him.
Then... she found out about Island Killing Game and spoke to Kai, the Mastermind. They formed an alliance and she was assigned as the Headmaster so she can monitor the participants and also write her book.
This was her plan: By the time the Killing game ended, Erin would give the story to Setsu, so he could start making the film. But while he would be distracted by his own work, Erin would publish the book, just a while before Setsu releases his film.
This way, Erin would BLAME Setsu for copyright infringement and take away his money, in consequence for his father's actions.

It is revealed in Chapter 6 that Kai was her partner in running the Killing Game. The two's relationship strained when Kai took over her position as Headmaster, but they became friends by the end of the Killing Game.
===Enemies===
====Virgil====
Disconnect found Virgil as amusing at first but by Chapter 2, she saw him more as a threat, not just to the participants but also to Roses and herself. Virgil is quite possibly the one who knows the most about Disconnect out of everyone else in the Killing Game.
Disconnect executed Virgil in Chapter 5 for murdering Roses.
====Elise Nekogawa====
Disconnect is a bit annoyed at Elise's actions and words. Nevertheless, Disconnect spared her life because she had more potential to the Killing Game.
====Ume Kettei====
Ume works for the Future Foundation and was originally the one who was responsible for the simulation before Disconnect took it over. Despite her efforts, Ume was trying his best to protect the participants which annoyed her.

==== Chokusetsu Kuragari ====
Setsu, the current CEO of the Kuragari Film Company and the Ultimate Film Director, is Disconnect's boss and is also the son of Reo Kuragari, the man who had stolen from her when she was younger.

==== Reo Kuragari ====
Reo Kuragari is the former CEO of the Kuragari Film Company who had once framed Disconnect for copyright infringement when she was younger, and had stolen most of her family's money nearly to the point of bankruptcy. Disconnect has a deep grudge against Reo and his son because of this.

====Girlfriend====
Disconnect had stated before that she has a girlfriend who is a spray paint artist.
===Professional Relationships===
====Sōn / Roses====
Sōn, otherwise renamed Roses, is Disconnect's servant/helper as a Headmaster in the Killing Game. Disconnect actually likes spending time with him and finds his seriousness and obliviousness hilarious and often takes advantage out of it for fun and laughs.
As the Killing Game went on, she starts to care more for Roses as if he is a friend. Although as time went on, they have quite the complicated relationship, since they also argued once.
When Roses died in Chapter 5, Disconnect grieved and mourned for his death, seeing him as more than a servant, quite possibly a friend too. His death had impacted her greatly which drove her to attempt to end the Killing Game.
