## History

### Early Life

Little is currently known about Hezaya's life before joining the Ark Foundation's experiment.

### The Ark Foundation

Hezaya was one of eighty students invited to participate in a four-week paid experiment ran by the Ark Foundation, an organization whose main focus was unlocking the potential for humans to reach the peak in their respective fields. At an unknown point in time, Hezaya and fifteen other Ultimates attempting to board their flights were kidnapped by Jakob Nowak, an instructor who worked with the Ark Foundation. Hezaya and Miyoko Ebi were taken when they were checking-in their luggage. Sometime later, Hezaya woke up on the Ark, the main location for the experiment.

Soon after Akio concluded his investigations, an anonymous announcement gathered everyone to the function room on the first floor. At arrival, they met a trio who called themselves "The Siren's". They then revealed everyone would be forced to participate in a killing game, otherwise they would never be able to leave the ship. After they explained the rules of the game and class trial's, everyone split up for the day.

## Talent and Abilities

### Ultimate Croquet Star

Born into affluence, Hezaya's parents sent her to all sorts of boarding schools, but she was kicked out for a plethora of reasons. When they finally found a school that worked for her, they forced Hezaya to become the president of the croquet club, which only had three members including her.

## Creation and Development

A homage to Heather Chandler, Hezaya was originally one of the last characters created before the cast rework. Hezaya originally had a much more mean-spirited and cruel personality, and had a strong hatred for the now-removed Nyoko Eijiri, the Ultimate Hostess. Before Nyoko was removed from the game, she was involved in a love triangle with Hezaya, herself, and Oliver Moreau, the Ultimate Figure skater, and another removed character. After the cast rework was complete, Hezaya's personality underwent changes to be less reliant on her inspirations.

In her original appearance, Hezaya's hair was slightly redder than it is now and had no accessories. Her outfit once consisted of a red jacket with a black and white polka dot interior, a white bow with a yellow gemstone, a dress shirt which was untucked over her black skirt, a pair of black socks with a red and yellow diamond pattern, and a pair of brown shoes. In addition to its interior, Hezaya's jacket used to have golden strings and buttons, as well as the logo of the Himura brand. Hezaya's hair was changed between the release of the prologue and chapter one.

## Trivia

* Hezaya's surname was originally Akaoya.
* Hezaya is the self-proclaimed Ultimate Beauty.
* The Hezaya family is well-known throughout Japan, and are involved in politics and business all around the country. They possess incredible power due to this, buying into most industries and taking over small companies for their brand.
* Almost everything Hezaya owns is red.
* As a result of her frequently moving during her childhood, Hezaya is fluent in many languages.
* Hezaya's parents are both wealthy CEO's whose companies merged into one with their marriage. The Himura brand would be similar to the real-world Samsung brand in its popularity and spread.
* Hezaya wears heels to make her already tall height even more intimidating.
* Hezaya was originally going to have multiple outfits she would wear throughout the killing game, and would comment how it was weird everyone else only packed one outfit. This was later scrapped due to the amount of sprite artwork needed, however.
* The logo of the Himura brand was originally intended to be the logo of one of the private schools she attended.
* When outlining introductions, Voncreep believed it would've been difficult to write a solo introduction for Miyoko, so she was paired up with Hezaya. This became the basis for their friendship.
