Ayaka Chinami

This is Ayaka's reference sheet.

**Aya-Chan** is a frail, shy schoolgirl who's trying her best.

## Appearance

Ayaka has long, brown, mostly straight hair with two colored streaks on her fringe; purple on her right side and blue on her left. She has green eyes and pale skin, along with freckles plastered across her face. Ayaka is quite thin, with average proportions. Generally, she's seen clinging onto her sketchbook and keeping to herself, unless she's in the art club or with her friends, which is when she's seen actually socializing rather than expressing her common, shy behavior, or around somewhere with animals or plants, where she usually draws alone.

## Personality

Ayaka is an extremely shy person who's afraid of large amounts of attention piled onto herself. Because of this, she behaves quietly, tries to stay in the shadows, and avoids others as much as possible aside from when she's at her club.

## Backstory

Growing up in an unsafe home, Ayaka soon had to move away from her mother by the time middle school began to escape the hardships she had to face against her will. Upon her first arrival, Ayaka decided she'd try to be as kind as possible to everyone she met at her school, her logic being that if she acted this way, nobody would have a reason to want to hurt. She soon discovered how wrong she was when her clique at the time used this to their advantage, basically using her as a doormat and exploiting her kindness to the very end. They would get her to do things that would generally get in trouble, and refuse to take the blame when she was caught, though she never told on them, as they convinced her it was "looking out for the team" if she took the punishments herself. This group would constantly trash talk about her any chance they got. When she caught them and confronted them, they all turned on her, and dropped the act after insisting they hadn't done such a thing. They bullied her for the rest of her middle school days, causing her to be a completely different person by the time high school began. Ayaka was then to be known as shy and full of trust issues, as the result of the harsh bullying she faced. Sadly enough, this easy-target attitude attracted more bullies, though this time, she had discovered the art club and made friends there who would not follow the path of her old "friends."

## Relationships

Ayaka has a Mother, Father, and an older Brother. Names aren't specified as of right now, but their relationships with each other aren't the best.
