Write up a quick little blurb about your character's highschool experience!

They were pulled from an International Highschool located in [Japan] making a lot of them foreign exchange students!

How would the other classmates know your character in this universe? Were they in sports? Cheerleaders, perhaps? Maybe they were in choir together or bandmates! Maybe they're just the quiet, weird art kid that hangs out in the corner or part of the stoner skater kids who smoke outside during lunch~! Perhaps your character was the drama teacher or runs anime club~?

Sure, most of them were failing in some way, of course, or else they wouldn't be here! But that doesn't mean they didn't still have prospects and hobbies~ Let's flesh it out a bit shall we?

Just use this post to build/handwave CR for the universe of Battle Royale, and make this murder game just a little juicier~! >:3

Riley has two modes and two modes only:
1) shy and barely speaks up in class
2) VERY ENTHUSIASTIC ABOUT CHEERLEADING

She's actually pretty similar to canon, except for fun we've taken her homicidal ideation and replaced it with even more anxiety. Her classmates have probably only heard her in mandatory group projects or if she gets forced to speak in class. It's always soft, and there's always a slight stutter to it. She's not the best at speaking Japanese, so that definitely doesn't help!

If you have stricken up a conversation about cheer, however? It's like a switch. She gets talkative and excited, just chattering on and on. She loves her team and she's very proud of them. They're actually, like, good? Revolutionary! Since we are based on a Japanese setting it's more Japanese-based cheering, which is largely dance routines! Like this, stunts with a LOT of dance choreo mixed in.

Some things never change and in fact only get worse, so outside of those exceptions, Riley basically only talks to Cairo. She's VERY observant, however, and has probably gotten caught staring at random classmates (to try and figure out how best not to get into a situation that could get her hurt).

Nanami thinks Riley's pretty cool until she starts getting up & cheering, and then she's a bit loud for Nanami's tastes. They have done staredowns across the room and it's very funny.

WELL THANKFULLY SHE KEEPS IT CONTAINED TO THE GYM AND OTHER SPORTS-RELATED AREAS unless someone like. asks her about it. oops.

Riley definitely spent like two weeks trying to figure out if Nanami was also shy or if she was gonna kill her in the girls' bathroom one day. Normal things, nbd.

During that period Nanami was also trying to decide whether to wreck this girl's day and decided it was too much trouble so she never did anything about it. (Everything is too much trouble if it's not games.)

Vivid fantasies, though!

Altair has a violent reputation in the school so Riley probably has stared at him a few times. It's annoying and Altair has definitely glared back when he's in a bad mood. As a foreigner who used to struggle with speaking japanese, he would reluctantly help her out if they get paired up for a mandatory project together. He's blunt about it he will act like he just wants to get a decent grade instead of genuinely wanting to help.

It’s funny because Riley has definitely been in the class for a few years but she’s still so bad at speaking, since she doesn’t let herself get any practice. She’s…grateful probably? But she doesn’t know how to express that and wouldn’t communicate with Altair outside of any mandatory school functions.

It's fine. She doesn't have to thank him. In fact, he prefers if she doesn't. Then he won't have to admit he helped her. Unfortunately, he cares now and he might sneak in more advice sometimes when they do have to speak to each other. You know, just in case they get paired up again.
