## Backstory

### Character Introduction

Martha was good at riding and shooting when she was young and attained the rank of captain after joining the cavalry. Not content to just gallop on horseback, Martha learned basic piloting skills and fell in love with flying. She quit her position in the cavalry and joined the Air Force. However, instead of becoming a pilot, as she had wished, Martha was required to perform signal guide work on the ground. To fly her own plane, she has to find a reliable "sponsor".

### Character Relations Menu

Martha was good at shooting on horseback since she was a young girl, and she was promoted to cavalry captain after joining the military. But galloping on a horse alone couldn't satisfy Martha, so she learned the basics of piloting a plane and quickly became addicted to it.

She relinquished her position in the cavalry and joined the air force. Unfortunately, Martha didn't get to be a pilot, and she was ordered to provide support on the ground instead.

The only way for her to pilot a plane was to find a reliable "sponsor."

### Announcement Backstory

Martha, who was born in a military home, was influenced by her parents. She was good at shooting on horseback since she was a child, and gained the rank of captain after joining the cavalry. However, Martha was not satisfied with galloping on horseback. She yearned for the endless blue sky, and learned basic flying and driving skills. She quickly gave up her position in the Cavalry and joined the Air Force. But Marta did not fly on the plane as a pilot as she wished. She could only be arranged to perform signal guidance on the ground. And if you want to fly between the blue sea and blue sky, you obviously need a truly reliable "sponsor".

### A letter to Baron DeRoss (2020)

Dear Baron DeRoss:

I have received your letter for which I'm truly grateful. Your suggestions in the letter has piqued my interest.

As you mentioned, I'm having trouble putting an end to a particular business. Joining your "game" and working for you could be the solution to my problem.

At the same time, I need you to guarantee my safety: a brand new identity, and a convincing background.

So long as it's not "me", I can become anybody.

Don't forget the tragedy that happened to your family.

I don't want to trouble that gentleman, at least not now.

I look forward to receiving your response.

All the best,

You-know-who

There are some notes on the back in a script and style unlike either of signatures:

A suitable new identity

Who is she?

Where are her companions?

Winner? Victim?

Or is she just like that alcoholic of a woman?

Forfeit?

(The last line is in scribbles.)

Anyway, this is my only choice.

### A Page from ???'s Experiment File (2022)

Serial No. 6-1-4

Name: ???

[Test Indicators]

1. Fraud

2. Weaves lie with truth

3. Role-playing

[Inclination]

Loses her identity

[Test Results]

1. Overall Evaulation: The hardest identity to imitate is her own.

2. Methodology:

This group is tasked to play a game based on the theme "Pinocchio." The 4 test subjects were asked to reverse "true and false."

The rules require Subject 6-1-4 to use her true identity in the game, but she continued on with a false identity when introducing herself, and the other 3 test subjects acknowledged her false identity. Subject 6-1-4 was warned that same night. She reintroduced herself the next day, but the other 3 test subjects deduced that her true identity was false. Her "lies" convinced Subject 6-1-2 that she was the "liar" who caused the final "tragedy" in the prophecy. When she tried to explain the "truth" to Subject 6-1-2 at the end of the game, she couldn't gain Subject 6-1-2's trust, causing the tragedy between her and Subject 6-1-2.

3. Analysis Summary:

Subject 6-1-4 possessed a "fake" personality, and this led to an interesting outcome during the group experiment: The other test subjects could accept Subject 6-1-4's lies, but when she chose to be truthful, the truth became lies to others.

Subject 6-1-4 lived her life with stolen identities, so her "false identities" were true to her, and her true self was the "false identity." Her perception of "true and false" deviated from the other test subjects. When asked to use her true identity, she and her group members recognized it as a lie.

Subject 6-1-4 was calm and composed with a "false identity," acting as if it was her true identity. But when asked to use her real identity, she seemed flustered.

It's inferred that Subject 6-1-4 is prepared to take on any identity except her own.

She acts like an echo that can never speak on its own and only imitates the words of others.

It is also the reason why the group experiment ended with tragic results for all 4 test subjects. It wasn't due to the lie like Subject 6-1-2 had expected. Conversely, it was the truth that no on believed.

## Coordinator Letters

### An Old Suitcase (2023)

Neatly folded in the suitcase is a uniform with Morse code sewn into the placket, cuffs, hem, etc.

With the uniform is a stack of train tickets purchased under different names and heading to different destinations. By the tickets is a cigarette from the Imperial Tobacco Company. Part of the tobacco is missing, as if someone had poured it out on purpose. The cigarette gives off a unique chemical smell mixed with the tobacco scent.

There is a letter by the suitcase, and the letter's content is as follows:

Sir,

About your request to investigate that organization, I regret to inform you that we failed to locate any relevant information in our registration directory. In this regard, we exhausted a huge amount of manpower to investigate unregistered organizations. Unfortunately, we have yet to find any relevant information. As an official intelligence agency, we have records of all organizations with illegal dealings. In light of the investigation's outcome, we are only able to provide two possibilities for your reference at present:

Firstly, the organization in question has not taken any action that can be recorded. In this regard, we suggest you provide us with more information on the target and organization.

Secondly, the information on the organization in question is beyond our clearance level.

The rest of the writing is stained by ink from the back, and someone has written the following there:

""The final choice after the decision, the reward of victory — Rebirth represents a new identity.""

The mission is over, Captain Behamfil.

### Letter Summaries

These summaries are found in the Character Relations menu after the letter has been received.

***A Letter to Baron DeRoss***

The letter hinted that someone took the identity of "Martha the Coordinator" per Baron DeRoss's suggestion.

***Two Identification Documents***

The experiment report states that the Coordinator participated in a game of "Identity" in the manor.

## Compiled Overview

The following section contains an overview based on canon information.Please note that some information may be missing as it may not have been provided from official sources. See the given references for further information.
### Background

When Martha was born to a traditional family in Great Britain, her father was disappointed that she was born as a daughter and not a son. However, he still decided to raise her as if she were a boy, teaching her how to ride a horse and how to shoot a gun, among other traditionally masculine activities which made her more like a tomboy. This was against his wife's wishes, as she was trying to raise her daughter to become a lady and "perfect" housewife such as was detailed in a poem.

Instead of adhering to either traditional male or female role, their daughter chose her own path and joined the military and quickly attained the rank of Captain in the Cavalry for her prowess in riding and marksmanship. However, she soon became fascinated with flying and joined the Air Force instead, but was not given a position or training in becoming a pilot and was stuck with boring work on the ground. During this period she met a pilot named Henry and fell in love (much to the delight of her mother), not with his wealth or status, but with how he treated her. During their time together, Henry designed and made a glider with Martha's help, and they decided to test it during a misty day. Giving Martha a Flare Gun so that he would be able to land on the airport lane, he flew his glider - and unfortunately crashed, leaving Martha alone with people who didn't understand her.

She agreed to participate in the mysterious manor game, on the condition she was given a new identity.

### Events at the Manor

It is currently unknown what occurred to her at Oletus Manor.

### Alternate Theories and Conclusions

The below article or section(s) contains speculation, analysis, or theories which may include unconfirmed information.When adding content, use references to link or explain **legitimate/official** supportive evidence for specific theories, otherwise it may be removed.
* Martha Behamfil isn't her real name, and her deductions may not be her real background, based on her letters hinting at the fact she is using a fake identity. She got this new identity from Baron DeRoss, who invites her to work under him and join in the Manor Game.
