Karnatia Seri Anabald

## Appearance

Before reincarnation, Kanata looked like an average high-school boy with dark hair. He was a bit on the tall and gangly side, but fit in well enough with his friends Shun and Kyouya.

Katia has ruby red hair that reaches the middle of her back and red eyes. She is noted to be a peerless beauty among noble society in Analeit. Due to her status as a duke's daughter, her clothes match her political status and are often tasteful and complicated. At the royal academy, she wears the same uniform as everyone else.

## Personality

Normally, Katia acts as expected from a lady of high society, with a graceful and feminine way to speaking. When she finds Schlain, her best friend from her life on Earth, she talks with male mannerisms when around him. Later, when they discover that Schlain's pet dragon, Feirune, is also a reincarnation, she continues to behave in a masculine way in front of her.

Throughout her new life, though, Katia wrestled with her old memories as she grew up as a girl. She suffered from gender dysphoria due to the memories of her previous life until her mind fell under the control of Hugo's Ruler Skill, Lust. While under the control of the Skill she was able to observe herself fighting her best friend, deciding that the body under control of the spell was her old self, Ooshima Kanata. When her body died and was resurrected by Schlain's Ruler Skill, Mercy, she declared that Ooshima Kanata was dead and accepted that she had been a girl for many years, allowing her to come to terms with the emotions and splintered feeling that she had been wrestling with for years.

As seen during their travel to the Elf Village and the downfall of the Kingdom of Analeit, Karnatia is one of the Reincarnates that has now properly adapted to her new life. This is seen where she has more or less learned the needed skills of political intrigue expected of the daughter of a Duke and a Noblewoman. Karnatia has shown to be able to easily understand and analyze the social and political issues regarding Kingdom and inform and look after her friend, Schlain regarding them due to his naivete and denseness preventing him from understanding their complicated situation as a prince and noblewoman respectively.

Due to her experience navigating politics, Katia is shown to have developed a very analytical mindset when dealing with others. This is seen where she was able to easily guess the methods employed by Filimøs to gather the reincarnates and "protect" them. Katia herself was shown to have also developed a strong intuition as well, having been able to tell that the Elves and Potimas weren't as trust worthy as her allies think after carefully analyzing Potimas and his subordinates actions and behavior after arriving in the Elf Village.

### Background

In her previous life, Katia was a high school boy named Ooshimana Kanata. He was friends with Yamada Shunsuke and Sasajima Kyouya and the trio would often play online games together. However, Kanata was privately troubled by something: he had no interest in the opposite gender. Fearing he would otherwise become an outcast, he hatched a plan to falsely confess to a girl and get rejected to gain the boys' symphathy. To ensure that he would get rejected, he decided his false confession to Wakaba Hiiro, the "queen of the class". In the end, everything went as Kanata planned and he was rejected. However, unbeknownst to him, Wakaba was, in fact, fully aware of his true intentions for confessing to her.

One day, during physics class, a mysterious explosion occurred and killed Kanata alongside his entire class. Afterward, Kanata found himself reincarnated in the body of a noble girl: Karnatia Seli Anabald, or Katia, the daughter of a powerful duke in the Kingdom of Analeit. While initially struggling with her new gender, she ultimately come to terms with it. Due to her new status, Katia was educated in noble edicate and underwent an "appraisal ceremony" when she came of age. Here it was discovered that she was born with a unique skill and a vast amount of skill points, causing the other nobles to refer to her as a "genius".
