## Basic Details

Haruka is a cool type underground idol ar Origin Academy and is one of the four main characters of Aikatsu Legend: Distortion. She favors the ghost type, and her preferred brand is Nightmarish Wonderland.

She brings the flair of death metal to her Aikatsu, with lots of guitar, bass, drums, and screaming.

## Backstory

Haruka was born and raised in Nacrene City in Unova, where her father works at the Museum and her mother at the nearby Pokemon Daycare. She was taught about history and Pokemon early on, especially with her parents past in Team Plasma.

Due to her learning that an entire organization was founded on the principle that enough people were cruel to Pokemon, Haruka became distrustful of trainers at an early age, seeing them as hypocrites who talk about friendship while throwing their partners into battles and cold machines. This spread and she stopped trusting people outside her family entirely, viewing humans as selfish and deceitful creatures, even cursing her own humanity.

That started to change 3 years ago, when Haruka first saw her.. Aya Asami.

Haruka had spent another afternoon writing death metal music when she turned on the TV to find a horrible yet catchy sound, and a freckled red head singing and performing with her Pokemon. There was no pain, no battle, just.. Just joy.

It was Aikatsu

Perhaps... Perhaps there were good humans still.. And Aikatsu would help her find them.

## Appearance

Haruka has a ghostly appearance that matches the partners she treasures, with her pale skin and almost white hair. Her eyes are colored like amethysts.

When not on stage, Haruka prefers to wear black and gray punk clothing, and has a lot of death metal band shirts.

## Personality

Haruka is somewhat grumpy, usually avoiding her classmates to brood with her Pokemon and music.

When forced to talk to others, Haruka holds no punches, being brutally honest on facts as well as how she feels about things.

Despite her obvious dislike of people, Haruka won't hesitate to go to someone's aid if they need it, since she doesn't support any form of cruelty.

She is known to skip classes
