## Personality

### Middle School

Liz often does not change her facial expressions, which can sometimes make reading her emotions very difficult. At moments, she can come off as playful and childish, while in other instances she can be very intimidating and arrogant. Liz usually speaks her mind and do things at her own pace without any regard for others. She is a very prideful person who usually considers herself superior to most others. As a result, she can be very condescending to those she considers weaker than her, such as Shīna Hinata, or even mock her own friends, such as Kyung Soon. During their childhood, Liz would torment Shīna by twirling her hair to play Kabuki despite this act would cause Shīna to get motion sickness and puke.

Despite her superior attitude, Liz is also easily angered and can become very aggressive at times. Particularly, Qui Yen Fujiwara (and to a certain extent Kyung Soon Fujiwara), whom she has a grudge and conflicted against since childhood. Insulting her twin-tail hairstyle, which she is very passionate about her twin-tails hairstyle, can also set her off as well.

After losing against Kyung Soon in a gambling game, her personality has since mellowed out. Notably, she has also seemed to developed an interest in Kyung Soon, despite looking down on her initially, after she called her mature and beautiful during the game. Liz now views herself as her older sister figure, much to his ire, and tries to hang around with her more often, even getting jealous one time over Qui Yen (Kyung Soon's twin sister).

### Start Of High School

Liz is very outgoing and is shown to be quite popular due to her career. She attracts a large crowd while visiting Shīna near her school. She is hyperactive, impulsive, and otherwise childlike, evidenced by her tendency to speak in the third person. Despite being considered idiotic by many, Liz is shown to have moments of intelligence. Although she is generally nice to those she meets, due to her past she can also be quite cruel.

Despite her typically cheerful personality, Liz has been mentally afflicted by seeing her birth parents murdered right before her eyes. It is unclear how much the trauma has affected Liz psychologically, but in the books,(That are currently in progress ~Akagisa12) Keiko indicates that Liz went through a deep depression immediately after she discovered the murderer was acquitted of the crime. After the murderer is later killed by Qui Yen's personal assassin, Liz is incredibly grateful, and her intense appreciation and hero-worship initially fuels her actions. After she becomes emotionally attached to Qui Yen, her behavior is strongly motivated by love.

## Relationships

### Family

**Callisto's Aunt**: Their relationship is complicated. The aunt is Callisto's only living blood relative. After her parents' death, Callisto followed her aunt to her apartment so she took Callisto in. Callisto is ashamed of her aunt and finds her strange, firmly told her aunt that her apartment stinks. Auntie thinks that Callisto was adorable.

However, being raised by her aunt for a bit has left a bad taste in her mouth. She seldom sees her aunt and holds her in a low regard. Despite that, Callisto was willing to cooperate with her if it means she'll be able to stay with her other selves. When Callisto's aunt tells Callisto that she is overstepping her boundaries, killing for love and that she'll grow into a dirty adult, Callisto grabs and twists her aunt's collar, demanding that she take responsibility for raising her. Callisto's aunt was initially shocked but agreed to take responsibility. Callisto doesn't consider her aunt to have truly loved since she loves everyone the same.

## History

Callisto was born into a family of nobility, where she spent her little to none of her childhood years in joy and pure bliss alongside her mother and brother. Callisto believed that one must be thankful for all that they have in the world such as food. One day Callisto runs to her brother Ashera and asks him to join her and their mother for lunch as she did not want to eat alone. Ashera instead was fascinated by the sun, and had a conversation with Callisto about it. Callisto said that their mother told her looking at the sun would burn their eyes, and after a little more bickering, they head back home for lunch.

At a young age, Callisto's parents passed away in an unknown accident, leaving Callisto in custody of her aunt. Callisto's aunt would often bring by strange men to sexually and physically abuse her while Callisto was quietly observing it. "Auntie" taught Callisto about different kinds of love throughout her childhood, raising Callisto with deranged ethics to accept all types of "love" and love everyone. Auntie stated she had to swallow up all of Callisto's joy and desires, such as Callisto's teddy bear that has been ripped apart by Auntie. She told Callisto that this was "love". It is because of this type of upbringing that made Callisto have mixed feelings about love. She dislikes the thought of loving everyone as she is firmly convinced there should be one person to love the most in the world. It was like this until someone outside of the family saw and heard what was happening, and that just happened to be Tetsurō's father. They contacted the police and explained everything, when they were there the police heard what was happening and decided that was enough evidence. And they locked up Callisto's aunt.
