## Role in the GASEverse

### **CURRENT ROLE**

Originated from a galaxy-Earth collision, Ringo is a transfer student, down-to-earth, cheery, curious, and pretty smart despite her life, no matter what.

She's a part of **The Popping Puzzle A-Quads**, alongside with **A**mitie and **A**rle. with **A**lly being the rare and 4th member ever since.

However, during some shenanigans, she meets up with Ecolo to figure out the messes.

She even encounters herself as **Gala✪Comet Ringo**, her alter ego, in which Suzuran, or instantly, half of the multiverse, is in severe catastrophes.

She currently resides in Suzuran with her family, in which they're a fresh produce family business, mainly of apples, being an exclusive transfer student of Higure University.

### **BACKSTORY**

She was born during a galaxy-Earth collision, which was purposely done by Ecolo. As of humans and aliens interacting each other as a "failed" plan, Ringo's father was a human although, but her mother was a/n (human-like) alien, in which they met in Suzuran awhile ago. That's what how Ringo was born a hybrid of these 2 species.

With her super sense ability inherited from her mother, she realized that Ecolo started the collision incident. But up to this close, she wasn't ready to meet-up with him... yet~

During her early life, she's introduced as Higure University's transfer student, realizing how unique she was, and probably because of her intelligence. After that, she was planning to join a club here of her school, which is the Physics Club, made by Maguro. Later on, she was given a magical wrist bracelet by a student she knows, with an unknown reason why; apart from this, it has been given much power when owned.

Before her encounter with the two mages of the Puyo-side of the multiverse, well... Arle mainly, she learns how to Puyo Pop by her, due to curiosity.

### **FANSERVICE**

In some T-to-M-rated media of this multiverse timeline, she contains a few sexual innuendoes, containing in some parts / cutscenes, like only wearing undergarments for example. As of wearing her main attire and some alternative outfits in those, some pantyshots may occur as well.

## Creator's Notes and Trivia

### TRIVIA:

* **Some of her (main) outfits are referenced to her OG counterpart's (alter) appearances by games:**
	+ Ringo's first main attire is referenced out of her PuyoTet1 appearance.
* Back when she originally made her first debut in 7 (2009), SEGA and Sonic Team planned her to be(come) a maho shojo / magical girl, according to her Deka / Mini forms, but since and until her 2nd debut in 20th (2011), the idea was instantly scrapped.
	+ Most or part of the fan community brought that idea back, however, which was for their fanon lore.
	+ The concept idea was originated until 7's release, within her maho shojo companions being scrapped away as Maguro (blue-haired) and Risukuma (blonde).
		- Luckily, those scrapped characters from that concept were introduced as separate characters for the multiverse; i.e. Hotaru.
* To some Puyo fans, **the OG Ringo was based on an apple**, according to her hairstyle, her first name, the colors (optionally), and of her carrying her signature apple most of the time.
	+ In the multiverse, it might be true if Ringo was based on an apple in this, but it could be curious about her species...
	+ Musician Ringo Starr basically shares the same name as his stage name, tbh.
* **FUN FACT:** Ringo shares parallels with Atomic Betty's Betty Barrett, due to them being green-eyed redhead students, having interests relating to space and planetary culture, and even transform into their heroic alter egos when needed to save the galaxy.
	+ She even shares parallels with Blossom Utonium, not only because they're redheads, but also because of their level of intelligence.
