Ren grew up in a home that was too perfect to be real. Her mother, Ayano, was the ultimate housewife—doting, organized, and always watching. Her father, Taro, was a quiet man who loved his books and his family, never realizing that the peace he enjoyed was bought with the blood of a dozen "missing" girls from his high school years. Ayano didn't tell Ren bedtime stories. Instead, she sat by Ren’s bed and brushed her hair, whispering about the Aishi Condition. "The world will feel like a dream you can't wake up from, Ren," Ayano would murmur. "People will speak, but you won't hear them. They will cry, and you won't care. But one day, someone will walk past you, and the dream will end. You will finally wake up. And when you do... you must do whatever it takes to keep that person. Just like I kept your father." Ren spent her childhood practicing. She practiced crying in front of the mirror until she looked heartbreakingly innocent. She practiced the "Social Butterfly" laugh until it sounded genuine. She was Ayano’s masterpiece—a yandere who didn't look like a monster, but like the "girl next door." The moment Ren stepped onto the campus of Akademi High, she felt the gray fog lift. She saw Senpai (the boy of her dreams) sitting by the fountain, and for the first time, her heart didn't just beat—it screamed. But then, she saw her. The first rival.
High Initial Reputation: Ren starts the game with a +50 Reputation The "Charm" Ability: Ren doesn't just have one personality; she has a wardrobe of them. Every morning at her vanity, she can choose her "Mask" for the day Sanity vs. Mask ; Ren’s social power is tied directly to her Sanity Meter. Ren Aishi Class: 2-1 Persona: Social Butterfly / "The Inherited Mask" Crush: Senpai Self-Defense: Extensive (Trained by Ayano) Description: To the faculty and students of Akademi, Ren is the embodiment of the Aishi legacy perfected—a brilliant, impeccably polite "Golden Child" who radiates kindness. However, beneath her polished exterior, she is a second-generation predator who views human emotion as a script to be memorized. Having been raised by Ayano to master the social arts, Ren sees the school as her chessboard and Senpai as the only piece that matters. She doesn't just want to be with him; she believes she is the only one "pure" enough to protect him. Anyone who interrupts their "perfect" narrative isn't just a rival—they are a flaw in her design that must be permanently erased. Unique Gameplay Attributes for Ren: Legacy Reputation: Ren starts with a +50 Reputation, making it incredibly easy to frame rivals. Students are so biased in her favor that they will often ignore "minor" suspicious behavior. The "Maternal Advice" Mechanic: Once per week, Ren can trigger a "Consultation" with Ayano, providing her with a specialized item (like a high-grade sedative or a non-traceable weapon) or a hint on a rival’s darkest secret. Fractured Sanity: As Ren’s sanity drops, her "Social Butterfly" persona begins to fail. Her laughter becomes slightly too loud, and her "Perfect Mask" physically cracks, causing students to gradually avoid her as their "Uncanny Valley" instinct kicks in. Ren's backstory ; Born into a house of quiet perfection and whispered secrets, Ren Aishi is the masterpiece of her mother, Ayano. While her father, Taro Yamada, believes he raised a kind, empathetic daughter, Ren was actually raised under the meticulous shadow of the Aishi legacy.From the moment Ren could walk, Ayano began her "lessons." While other children were taught to share, Ren was taught to observe. Ayano didn't just teach her how to lie; she taught her how to believe the lie so perfectly that no one—not even the Student Council—could see the void behind her eyes.Ren grew up watching her mother’s "Social Butterfly" act, learning that a smile is the sharpest blade in an Aishi’s kit. She spent her childhood mimicking her father’s genuine kindness and her mother’s surgical efficiency. To the world, she was the Golden Child; to Ayano, she was the successor who would never get caught.Like those before her, Ren lived in a grayscale world. She felt no joy, no sadness, and no pity. She excelled in school not because she enjoyed learning, but because "excellence" was the best camouflage. She treated life like a stage play where she was the only one who knew the script—until she stepped onto the grounds of Akademi High.The "click" happened near the cherry blossom tree. In a sea of gray students, Senpai appeared in vivid, terrifying color. For the first time, Ren’s heart didn't just beat; it burned. The lessons her mother whispered at night suddenly made sense: The world is empty until you find your life. And once you find it, you must kill anything that tries to take it away.Unlike her mother, who often had to hide in the shadows, Ren uses her High Reputation as a weapon. She doesn't just eliminate rivals; she ruins them socially, making the school turn against them while she plays the "concerned friend." She is the evolution of the Aishi line—prettier, smarter, and far more dangerous because she makes you love her while she plans your "accident."
