Character Information

Name/Alias: Rei Hazama
Fandom: Doubt
Canonpoint: After chapter 20, "Ending".
Gender: Female

Physical Description: This is what she looks like, physically.

History: Here. She's only in chapters 1, 19, and 20, but if you need more than what the Wiki gives you, please tell me and I'll happily provide.

Personality:

First impressions are vital to a person's personality, but Rei's first impressions in the manga are anything but vital. In the first chapter of Doubt, the young girl presents herself as soft spoken, shielded from the outside world. She says that she's bad with crowds - and she is, isn't that obvious? After all, she's a young teenage girl in a wheelchair. Who could possibly think of anything more from someone like her? Because of how awkward she acts, she tends to be scared a lot to the point where her fingers are almost always trembling, where she's anxious around strangers. And it shows with her meek disposition, the fact that she stutters. But she's kind, friendly; the type of person that's easy to get along with, even with her disposition.

The problem with that is?

It's all a big, fat act. While the first chapter itself gives out the impression that she's a shy girl - one who practically shows the epitome of moe to the point where she even showed fear at people finding out who she really was - not as a liar, but as a famous ex-celebrity, being the girl known as Saimin Shoujo, Hypnotist Girl, but that's all a facade she puts on so that nobody would ever suspect the truth underneath the mask.

Rei isn't kind at all. In fact, she's completely apathetic towards other people and simply doesn't care about other human beings at all. They're just there to be used as tools, as her wolves in order to exact her revenge against the cold, harsh world that took her parents away from her. She absolutely despises liars to an extreme -- liars are what destroyed her career and took her only family away from her, when they attempted group suicide. People thought that her hypnotism was fake, so she decided to take action using that so-called "fake" hypnotism. That would show them, she thought. And she does this all of the sake of her parents who loved her, even though the way she goes about it is completely warped.

And because Rei herself is the mastermind behind the real life "Rabbit Doubt" schemes that have been played out, it's quite obvious that she's actually rather intelligent and a bit of a trickster. She's good enough to play her role as a poor girl in a wheelchair, and she definitely knows what she's doing - as she's always two steps ahead of everyone else, and it shows. She can easily provoke someone into saying exactly the right words to finish the job, and she even figured out that Hajime would send forensics back to the scene of the crime. But Rei doesn't like getting her hands dirty. She's just simply an observer, someone who works behind the scenes; she doesn't do any of the hard work herself; she has people for that, "wolves". People who she can manipulate into doing what she wants, so she can play all she wants. It's fun, it's her entertainment; she doesn't mind laughing at other people because of it. After all, these people need to pay for their crimes, pay for their lies, pay for ruining her life.

The world is disgusting, after all. Another thing that Rei hates is when her plan go awry. She gets outright angry when Yu's presence and existence nearly made her plans crumble and even though she smiled at him, she was practically livid. That's why she had to kill him. He would ruin everything that she built up until now, because the person she was using? Her "wolf"? Wasn't perfect - she even broke free of her hypnotism once and Rei, well, she didn't like that in the slightest.

While she doesn't care about death - she even states that the games will continue even after she dies. After all, everything she does, all it's for, it's "for the one she loves".

Abilities:

Rei Hazama, being a famous child hypnotist basically knows how to hypnotize people. Of course, she cannot just simply hypnotize just anybody. She specializes in loss and targets people who have lost those precious to them through death as well as anyone who is weak willed. (Of course, I'd ask permission from other players before attempting any hypnotism!) With her hypnotism, she can control others to do her bidding, and even make them believe that she is another person. She is also able to use her hypnotism to presumably restore any lost or repressed memories as well. However, she can't kill people with it, and it's also possible for people to break through her hypnotism as well.

Other than that, she's pretty much a normal human being.

Samples

Dialogue: Here is a rather recent sample - it's a private conversation post from the short term mafia-based game, shiptrap - here, she's using her crafted personality.
Exposition/Introspection:

Rain.

Although they weren't allowed outside the school premises, they were sometimes allowed outside. And for some reason, when she saw the rain, there was something else that she saw, too. Family. Her papa and mama who loved her--

Whipping her head left and right, she shook the illusion out of her head. No, her parents were already long gone. Dead. They had gone and killed themselves in what seemed to be an "accident"; at least, that's what the media parsed it as. But she knew better. She knew that it was nothing like that at all in the slightest. That's why she hated everyone. The media, students, everyone.

Letting out a visible sigh, she ran a hand through her violet hair, allowing the water to drop down to her cheeks, as if tears streaked down. All she could do now was stare into the sky, at the dark clouds that hovered over her head. Just the memory of her family alone was enough to almost make her gag visibly, but she stopped herself. This was a school, there were people around. She couldn't just simply reveal to the world that kind of person she truly was. Oh, she'd play their games, she'd act as if things were all fine.

Eyelids dropped visibly as she closed her eyes, heels clicking as she turns her back on the world. There's no need for her to see these lies, these illusions, these falsities.

"The liar must die," she whispered to herself as her lips quirked into what seemed to be a nearly menacing smile as she placed her hand on the knob. Let the games continue, she thought to herself. She thought this might be fun to watch. She'd observe the reactions, the pain that the mysteries of this world would cause. Well, there's no need to act upon them.

After all, that's not her job.
