## History

### Background

Rin is a veteran Taimanin and often on missions

Though it is stated, that she is only a temporary exchange teacher, she seems to be very often in this role. As a teacher, she observes field training classes. As an active Taimanin she takes part of annihilation or raid missions and has gained absolute trust from the higher-ups.

As a user of Lightning arts; possessing even greater control than Yukikaze, she gained a level of fame among Taimanin. Because of that, Rin is called Lightning Bolt/Volt by her students, out of fear and respect. Rin is one of the strongest members of the Uehara clan, even though her cousin is meant to become the clan's leader, she is very protective of her cousin.

### Visual Novels

Rin never appears but is mentioned by name for the first time in the bad end route of Taimanin Asagi 2, year **2076**, together with Murasaki.

Both, could be part of a rescue team for Asagi and Sakura. Unseen but mentioned by name, presumably, they are also captured as they rush into a trap set by an Oboro, which had taken control of the Dragon Gate Hideout from her clone, and was now using an Asagi and Sakura clone, to wait for an ambush.

It can be concluded that Rin was Murasaki's teacher at this point. During Taimanin Asagi 3, she is not mentioned, which could suggest she was either away like other Taimanin or had been captured.
