## Biography

### Personality

Chosekkei is a mature and quiet girl who enjoys Japanese-authentic things, such as tea ceremonies, flower arranging, and even drawing. She decided to transfer to the school because the activites there are her forte. She is very kind towards her fellow peers and they sometimes call her "Chosekkei-onēsan", because she is like an older sister towards them. Chosekkei can sometimes have a temper with people, as whenever she sees someone bully her colleagues, she decides to stand up to said bully and try to get them to leave. Chosekkei is interested in taking up piano lessons. Her mother is also the teacher of the music class. She uses the suffix "-san" for people and usually calls them "(surname)-san".

### Appearance

Chosekkei appears as a fair-skinned girl who has wavy, medium-to-long dirt brown hair. She normally has sideswept bangs. Her eye color is gold. The outfit she wears casually is a light yellow off-the-shoulder top with long sleeves and pastel yellow details on the top resembling flower petals. Under that is a yellow camisole. She also has a yellow schoolgirl-like skirt, and brown thigh-high boots.

During her first revue, her outfit is a dull gold top with sheer, gold fabric covering the collarbone. She has puffy sleeves with black trim. On the collar is a black bolero tie with a yellow broache. She also has white gloves and gold bands on the top. The belt she wears is black and has a star on the front, as well as frilly, transparent, gold, skirt-like cloths. Under that is a yellow pleated skirt, gray tights, and yellow boots reaching to her knees; on top of each is a dull gold band with a yellow star in the front. She also has a dull gold wand-like staff with black ribbon and a yellow star on the top.

## History

### In The Past

When Chosekkei was 10, in her previous school, she had a fondness for drawing, specifically mangaka. A lot of her friends would request her to draw them in mangaka style, which made Chosekkei super happy. She was also very smart, often getting answers right and being labeled "the smartest in the school". She even ended up getting elected for student council president.

Sometime during that period, she was outside during recess, sitting on a bench drawing, then she heard and saw some older kids about 13-14 bullying some younger kids about 7-8. Chosekkei started to feel upset about that, and was going to get up and defend the younger kids, but then the friends she made stepped in and did it instead, but ended up getting bullied in the process. Chosekkei eventually decided it was enough, so she stepped in and stood up for her and the others. The older kids started calling her an "idiot" and a "nerd", much to her dismay. She then tells them to leave her alone, and they do. The younger kids - and her friends - congratulated Chosekkei.

About two years later, at the age of 12, Chosekkei was scouted to join Rinmeikan Girls School in a year. After doing more research about it, she then decided to join. She still did her current school until the next summer, whereas she was she finished sixth grade. In the autumn, at 13 years of age, she was immediately transfered to Rinmeikan Girls School, where she was admired by many of the younger students there. That day, she became a first year student at the school. Exactly two years later, at 15 years of age, she found out about Revues.
