**Saltherine Aldarake** (サルトリーヌ・アルダレイク, *Sarutorīnu Arudareiku*), also known as **Sally** is the protagonist of Peach Boy Riverside. She is the princess of the Kingdom of Aldarake who dreams of going on an adventure. After meeting Mikoto Kibitsu and watching him slay a horde of Oni, she decides to start an adventure of her own.

## Appearance

Sally is a young well-endowed girl with short blond hair and pink eyes. She used to have long hair, but she cuts it just before she began her adventure. She usually wears tight long pants, pink shirt and gloves.

## Personality

Sally is a kind-hearted spirit who craves for adventure. She is always protective of her friends and longs to fulfill her goal of having humans and Oni live together in peace, oftentimes with naive innocence. When she activates her Peach eyes she takes on a form almost identical to the one Mikoto takes while fighting Oni. Because of being raised in a castle surrounded by luxuries and isolated from the world and therefore there are many things she does not understand while for the rest are obvious.

She does not understand why people hate and fear demi humans and does not tolerate when someone is discriminated for only being not human. She then takes the decision of erradicating discrimination in her journey using her powers to accomplish her goal.

Although she's a pacific and calmed person, if someone insults or hurts one of her friends she will become agresive and hot-blooded.

Sally is terrified of octopus due to an experience in her childhood when an octopus was delivered to her castle and ended up groped by it, while peeking at it.

## Synopsis

Saltherine Aldarake (or Sally), is a bright, cheerful princess who wants to go on an adventure because she is bored of her tiny little castle in the countryside. One day, a hoard of vicious demons known as "Oni" come knocking on her doorstep, threatening the lives of everyone in the Kingdom. Thankfully, they are saved by a lone traveler named Mikoto Kibitsu who slays these monsters with his mysterious "Peach Eyes". Shocked by the dangers of the outside world, Sally decides to set off on a journey of her own. Little did she know that she would set in motion a chain of events that will come to determine the fate of this magical world.

## Power & Abilities

**Peach Eyes**: The peach eye allows her to become physically stronger and to an extent immune to an Oni's attack. When an Oni is nearby her right eye turns into a peach shape, and her mind turns into that of a psychopath whose only purpose is to kill Oni. As time goes on she seems to be able to control her urge to kill Oni. In Mikoto's case it's not clear whether he's able to control his urge to kill Oni or that because of his hatred towards Oni he lets the peach eyes urge to kill run loose. And there is also Hiko, in the anime Hiko seems able to control the urge to kill Oni immediately but in the manga he can't control that urge until later on.

The peach origin is still unknown for now there are only three people that have used the peach power, the first one is Hiko. After the battle against law god oni that he ended up losing the peach power was handed down to Mikoto and the third one is Sally, as for Sally where she got her peach power is still unknown.

## Equipment

* **Sword**: Sally wield short knight sword.

## Trivia

* Sally only has half of the peach power or the power hasn't fully awakened. The reason behind it is when Mikoto's peach power activated both his eyes turn into a peach shape, but in Sally's case only her right eye turned into a peach shape, the other reason is (spoiler warning!) in the manga's chapter 45 that's titled "Hearts and Barriers" Sally and her companions become friends with mask god oni, Juselino. When Juselino talks to Sally, she asks why Sally closes her right eye and Sally responds with "my right eye uh, sees you as evil Juselino."
