## Appearance

Rita is a 4'11" girl, she has short brown hair and light green eyes. Her outfit consists of a minidress with red, black and white stripes, black baggy sleeves and red fingerless gloves. Her left leg is covered by a single red stocking with yellow stripes whilst her right leg is covered by a single white stocking. She wears a black boot on her right leg and a red boot on her left leg and wears her bodhi blastia as a choker around her neck. She also wears a pair of goggles on her forehead,

## Personality

Rita is an exceptionally curious person. She is prone to studying anything she gets her hands on. However, she is also known to have a rather volatile temper, and has even cast spells at those who have simply disturbed her rest. Those who manage to make a friendship with her are well-protected, as she is very defensive of those she cares about, although she may be more an anti-social type of person who you rarely see nowadays, but in the public she's really more kept away from the others unless it has something to do with her, and she minds her business most of the time unless someone interrupts her reading her spellbook, which is something I recommend you NOT to do, because of her volatile temper, she doesn't hesitate to shoo someone off with her fireball, although through her adventure back at Terca Lumireis she learned the value of friendship, even through her rough and mean exterior, she has a bit of a soft side and can be more of a nicer and gentle person, but that's gonna take some work for her to do...

## History

Rita Mordio was orphaned at a young age and, due to having to provide for herself her entire life, lacks the compassion and social ability to form healthy relationships. This isolation caused her curious fascination with blastia - magic-conducting objects that allow the utilization of the elements in battle, as well as forming barriers to protect against monsters, Despite her young age, Rita is one of the most intelligent mages in Aspio, the city of scholars. However, her tendency to isolate herself has made her unpopular with the rest of the city, who find her to be very strange, which is how Rita learned to take care of herself without the need of anybody, but now without blastia, she has now come to terms that there must be other things that she could find worth researching, loving, and protecting.

### Background

Rita was born in Terca Lumireis in Aspio, the city of scholars, she was orphaned though, but for only ten years of her life, she spent the rest of her 5 years of her life studying blastia which made her develop the fascination and love for blastia.

### Story in Starcross

Rita's arrival in Starcross all started off with her greed for blastia, couldn't stay in Terca Lumireis, she thought about what she said during her final battle with Duke to save the world, “It was my conviction that mattered. My faith in blastia... Actually, it was more like love.” and "Even without blastia. There are plenty of things worth loving." but there was nothing in Terca Lumireis that really mattered to her, after the final battle, Duke had left over a portal for Rita, to go through, it was another world, another universe that Duke found that Rita might take to her liking, it was a tough decision to make for Rita, because once she walks past through the portal it'll be all on her to make another portal all over again, to even get her back to her own land, once she arrived there, the first two people she met was Esorta and Sans, and god damn how much a pain Sans was, over time Rita spent all by herself in Starcross she seen things that she doesn't understand or can even process through her head, somethings even annoyed her while she was there, she even questioned on what Duke even saw in this place, it was about that time she wanted to leave, but then again she had to take the new world Starcross for what it is, even if it's hell hole that she would want to escape and leave, there has to be at least SOMETHING she could find worth loving for, even if it means interacting with other people and stepping out her boundaries and to actually socialize with other people for once in her life.
