Setsuko Endō, (*遠藤節子 Endō Setsuko*) is the president of the Music Club in the Love Letter high school. She's a second year student.

## **Appearance**

Setsuko is oddly petite for her age even though she should have the figure of a young women. Her body is slender and small. Her fair skin flushes and bruises easily, so it isn't uncommon to see a few bruises on her body. Her eyes are a deep brown with small flecks of hazel in them. Her face is youthful and childish, her cheeks are almost always have a rosy look to them. Her hair is dyed a fade of pink to blue, her natural hair color is a dirty blonde which she inherited from her father. Her hair is usually in a pair of space buns with the company of multiple hairpins, scrunchies and ribbons. She's really big on accessories, rings, gloves, earrings, bracelets, chokers and even stickers! You'll never really catch her without any. At school she's always wearing the female school uniform, a collared shirt with a bow, a brown skirt that matches with her brown stockings and Mary Janes.

## **Personality**

When she first started attending the LLMTF high school (more specifically the first half of her first year) she was an extreme introvert, she always kept to herself. After the frat semester of her first year at the school she became extremely outgoing. She became moderately popular with the students, she can be a bit snappy or manipulative at times if you really get on her nerves

## **Backstory**

Setsuko was born into an upper middle class family. Before she was born her mother was a successful pop idol and her father was apart of a camera crew filming a documentary from America. After bumping into each other on set they got closer during the time he was in Japan. This led to a long distance relationship between the two for over two years until he moved permanently over to Japan to start a family with her, he later started working at a hospital. Sadly, after getting pregnant with Setsuko her music career ended rather quickly, she later became a flight attendant. As a tribute to her love of music she named her child Setsuko, even though it's most commonly used as a female name. Setsuko's early life had a lot of pressure put on her by her mother. Her mother forced her to learn multiple instruments including the piano, guitar and many more. Even subjecting her to tiring vocal lessons for hours each day. Her mother wanted her child to be her successor and become a musical prodigy. Her father did nothing to stop her mother from overworking her. Setsuko does genuinely enjoy making music but during the years that her mother constantly pushed her to do it and get better she'd lost interest, she'd tried her hand in baking which she does every so often as a stress reliever. At age 14 she came out to her parents as pansexual and transgender which her father excepted without question, but her mother had her doubts about. Her first half of her first year at the Love Letter high school she kept to herself mostly, not really to flashy or colorful, but one day she just changed her entire demeanor becoming who she's known as today. She's always had a passion for horror, horror movies, horror books, horror games, due to this fact she's almost completely jaded to the idea of murder or any super natural occurrences.

## **Misc.**

As this wiki states, Candy is **not** an official character in the LLMTF (*Love Letter: My True Feelings*) story and universe, she's just an original character I made for fun. But if she is used for the game or an in-game character that's similar to her this is how i would generally imagine her in-game.

### **In-Game Role**

She'd be a provider of equipment and weapons to the player, some sort of shop at the school. Depending on your level of trust with her prices for items will vary and so will what she offers to sell with you, if your trust is high enough with her you'll be able to request a certain items which she will bring with her the next day. When she brings the item you requested to school she will go looking for you which could potentially make her a witness to a murder or any suspicious activity depending on your level of trust with her she'll react differently to seeing you doing questionable activity.

She has a above average influence on student population when it comes to rumors. Everyone knows her due to the fact she sells things to the student body. So if your trust level is high enough you unlock the option to ask her to put a good word in with your sweetheart or spread positive things about you to the student body, but it'll cost you whether your trust with her is at max or not.

She usually goes to the baking club room on certain days during her free time to bake something to calm down, this action can be triggered if she gets generally annoyed by something, the player can directly or indirectly cause this if they want to. Since she's alone during those instances, this window of opportunity can be used to kill her with the risk of witnesses lowered.

If her reputation lowered enough that could result in absence in school and her being alone more often, allowing the player to kill her with a lower chance of there being witnesses.

She isn't a threat to the player in a romantic sense at all, if you raise your trust and friendship with her enough she can talk to your Sweetheart for you and get information about your rivals which can help you defeat them.

### **Reaction to Actions**

This is a general list and description of what her reaction will be to certain actions depending on your stats with her.

### **Tasks**

**High Trust:** The price of favors would go down to a few currencies. Favors at this level of trust would include: Putting a good word in with your Sweetheart, providing the player with medical equipment, providing the player with chemicals, not going to the authorities if the player is seen with blood on their clothes, a bloody weapon, murdering someone, or with a dead body.

**Medium Trust:** The price of favors would go down to like a few currencies. Favors at this level of trust would include: Putting a good word in with your Sweetheart, providing the player with medical equipment. She won't go to the authorities if the player is seen with bloody clothes or an unused weapon.

**Low Trust:** In exchange for any type of favors you'd have to pay her money. Favors at this level of trust would include: Putting a good word in with your Sweetheart.

**No Trust:** None, she wouldn't really talk to you since she doesn't really know you.

**Broken Trust:** She'd go out of her way to ignore you and maybe even spread rumors about you which could lower you reputation and popularity significantly. If she ever witnessed you murdering someone she would rat you out to the police, resulting in a game over. (So don't cross her, it's a bad idea)

## **Trivia**

* One of the meanings of the name Setsuko (*節子*) is melody.
* Inspiration for the *In-game role* and *Tasks* section was the wiki for the character Venus
* The reason her last name isn't an American last name (since her father is American) is due to the fact her mother chose not to take his last name when they got married and didn't want her child to take his last name either.
