## Profile

> A researcher of... something, from Ka Bue. Her Craft knowledge is unparalleled.

### Appearance

Odile is tall, with white skin and straight black hair which she ties into a rectangular bun. She wears a grey shirt with long sleeves, which indent over the back of her hands, and two buttons below the collar. She has a long light grey jacket with diamond shapes on her shoulders and large sleeves, and black pants. She wears rectangular half-rim glasses, with diamond shapes attached to them.

She wields a notebook, which she uses to Craft skills.

### Personality

Odile is described as curious and very perceptive; and although she sometimes acts as if she doesn't, she does in fact care for the party. She likes participating alongside them, such as imitating Siffrin's bumping into counters noises, or teaching Bonnie to make onigiri.

She's quick to notice when something's unusual or weird, and although she does not often call it out, she does want to be supportive. She hates having secrets kept from her.

## Story

Odile comes from Ka Bue, a country on the other side of the globe from Vaugarde; prior to joining the party, she had been travelling for a long time, presumably for her research.

She was the second person to join the party, having met Mirabelle and Isabeau while travelling. She precedes Siffrin and Bonnie.

## Combat

Odile uses  Paper Craft, making her strong against Rock and weak against Scissors.
 Her default equipment is the  Geometric Glasses, default weapon is the  Dense Book, and default memory is the  Memory of Odile.

Without levelling up (= at level 45), her highest stat is Attack (at 163 points), and her lowest stat is Atk Speed (at 94 points) (not counting Luck).

## Trivia

* Odile's favorite book genre is non-fiction, but she also loves fairytales; her favorite season is fall, favorite drink is tea (but only expensive), favorite color is dark green, and favorite animal is cat.
	+ She is really afraid of heights.
	+ She prefers cacao chocolate: not because she loves it, but because she likes chocolate but doesn't want to eat too much sugar. She would not try weird chocolate flavors.
	+ She likes spicy foods, and is very likely to order the spiciest versions of foods available.
* Odile has books at home, but not actually a lot: this is because Ka Bue has easy to access libraries.
* Her research is neither about Craftology, literature, local fauna, cutlery or keys.
* Alongside Siffrin, Odile is one of the two only party members to not be from Vaugarde, and to not follow Change belief.
	+ Instead, she follows a Ka Bue belief based on Expressions, of which there is one for everything — with "a few thousand" in total. She lists the ones she prays to as "The Expression of Search, the Expression of Writing, the Expression of Creator Craft, and lately, the Expressions of Battle and Victory".
* In the same way that Mirabelle, Isabeau and Bonnie dislike crabs, Odile dislikes dolphins.
* She has a total of 59 portraits in In Stars and Time.
* During pre-production, Isabeau was actually the name used for Odile, where she also had a very different personality. This was of course changed out later with "Odile", which is simply an old-sounding French name.
