Kiyota Ogiso

Battle

## Intro

Kiyota Ogiso is the 2nd party member in Dyztopia. She can be found in the prologue waiting for the train, and is a registered Hunter with the Hunter's association, though details of her are purposefully vague as she just uses her status as a Hunter to make money for Pon Pon. She loves video games, especially Visual Novels and Eroge. She specializes in Wood and Blood spells, and her sprout ability will sap foes HP while healing hers.

## Appearance

Kiyota is a female Smog with a big green jacket and a 'Puypa' Hat. She wears dark blue leggins and pink shoes. She has a white shirt underneath her jacket and wears fingerless gloves. She has purple hair and light purple skin with red eyes. Sometimes when she is experiencing cringe, she'll turn stark white and have beady eyes. It is unknown if she can do that because she is a smog or if the artist is taking liberties with her design.

## Personality

Kiyota is extremely energetic and outgoing. She immediately gets along with Akira, and most other party members upon first meeting them. She's sometimes a bit too loud, and that can get her in trouble sometimes. Talking to her during her sync links paints a bit of a different picture of her. There's a sad side to her that only gets amplified after the events of Chapter 1. In her Sync 5 event, she reveals she used to be quiet when she was a kid and had a lot of trouble making friends.

## Relationships

Runi Jarami - Kiyota is infatuated with Runi. Her reasons are expanded upon during her final Sync event, but it's evident in the main story that she's in love with Runi. If the player does not pursue Kiyota, she will ask Runi to take her virginity because they don't know if they'll live to see the ending. Kiyota will take any opportunity to be closer to Runi as well, in the Lunez story, when Kiyota is selected to stay back she protests until Runi mentions they can play "virtual novels" together.

Akira Sakimoto - During Chapter 1, Kiyota and Akira hit it off almost instantly becoming friends. Akira, who normally is a bit picky about their nicknames, doesn't mind when Kiyota calls them "Aki". Throughout the events of the story, Kiyota gains a lot of respect for Akira even if they don't end up in a romance. Kiyota is the first to go to Akira when asking for advice, and

Chase Evers - Kiyota and Chase are roommates. They show great affection towards one another, and according to their Rowbot conversation apparently get into some hijinks. Kiyota while drunk will seemingly pressure Chase to lift heavier and heavier things, which Chase will embarrassingly deny.

## Trivia

* Kiyota went through almost as much design changes as Akira
* Kiyota was one of the last characters made for the Alpha
* Kiyota in earlier artwork is seen to be wielding a Scythe, and some of her weapons are Scythes but none of her animations show her using a Scythe except for Verdant Reaper.
* In her Room, she mentions she is playing a Visual Novel that "appears cute but is really dark and sinister" and doesn't say more because "someone might be listening" this might be a reference to *Doki Doki Literature Club.*
* Kiyota and Akari have many similarities with how they grew up in the Empire. Their last names, Ogiso and Touma, are the same last names as the heroines of *White Album 2*, Setsuna Ogiso and Kazusa Touma respectively.
