AGE: 18+

CHARACTERS IN GAME: Hana "D.Va" Song
no subject
NAME: Dia Kurosawa
AGE: 17 (most likely)
CANON: Love Live! Sunshine!!
CANON POINT: Post Episode 13, Season 1
CANON INFORMATION: Here you go! I also referenced her TvTropes page when writing her personality, so this may also be helpful!
PERSONALITY: Dia Kurosawa is a dignified, proud young woman born to an old family with traditional values. She's has a fiery temper and presents herself assertively; but she's also very classy and speaks formally due to her upbringing. She does not tolerate sloppiness or imperfection, and can be quite picky when things aren't done properly; combine that with her hard-working nature, and she makes for the ideal Student Council President.
It's why she initially turns down Chika's proposal to form a school idol club at their school: there weren't enough members, they didn't have a solid plan...and at some point, once the club was established (which was out of Dia's control), they had made a fool of themselves, much to Dia's chagrin. Logically, her harsh attitude towards the club made sense, but there was a lot more to why she was so adamant towards the club.
Behind Dia's calm, somewhat cold demeanor is something deeper, rooted in her history that plays an integral role in her high school life: Dia is, in reality, extremely knowledgable about school idols, particularly the group μ's, which is the most renowned school idol groups of all time. She practically worships μ's and believes that no other group could be as great as them. Dia and her sister, Ruby, once fawned over school idols and dreamt of becoming ones themselves. While Dia was able to make her dream a reality, after her three-man idol group with her two childhood friends, Kanan and Mari, crashed and burned on stage, her dream went along with them...for more than half of the season.
In the first eight episodes, Dia is unable to let go of the past, which holds her back from following her real passion to become a school idol. While she doesn't bother to stop the girls from participating in a singing event in Tokyo, she warns Mari about their participation, bringing up the past and saying that Mari knows very well what will happen if they fail. This is the driving factor behind Dia's cold attitude towards Aquors: she knows how painful failure is and doesn't want the girls to experience the same thing.
Despite this, however, Dia still allows Ruby to become a school idol of her own choosing, showing that she cares a lot about her younger sister. She becomes a lot more gentle towards Ruby and drops the tough-girl act, as seen in this clip here. Before Dia joins Aquors, when Ruby worries about Dia being bothered about her being a school idol, Dia reassures her and tells her that it shouldn't matter what anyone else thinks, and even apologizes for giving Ruby a hard time. This shows that even though Dia was against being a part of the school idol club, she respected her sister's wishes, showing that she is capable of being selfless to tend to those she cares about.
Another example of her selflessness is shown in her friendship with Kanan and Mari. It's revealed that their idol group disbanded because Kanan didn't sing when they went to perform in Tokyo. Initially, the audience is lead to believe that the reason behind their failure in Tokyo was because they were overwhelmed by the other groups' performances before theirs, and Kanon froze up on stage. In reality, Kanan didn't sing because she didn't want Mari to perform with an injury. Thus, Kanan quit being a school idol to so Mari wouldn't turn down other opportunities because of their idol life, and Dia followed Kanan's decision. This shows that Dia was concerned for Mari's well-being and was willing to drop everything she cared about for Mari's 'own good'. Dia also refused to disclose the real reason why they disbanded until the time was right.
Furthermore, even though Dia had been harsh towards the school idol club before she joined, she always worried about the group and did little things that helped them succeed. In episode 3, Dia turned on a backup generator when the power went out during Aquors' first performance. Also, in episode 8, when the girls were disappointed that they did not receive any points in their first Tokyo performance, Dia comforted them and reassured them that they did not fail, despite her own past.
Dia's also the one who came up with the name "Aquors" for the group. She wrote it in the sand while the girls were figuring out a name, but ran away immediately when she heard them coming closer, not wanting them to know it was her. This was also the name of the three-man group Dia, Kanan, and Mari formed in the past.
After the conflict between the three of them is solved, they all join the club--Aquors--together and reaffirm their friendship. From then on, Dia is fully devoted to Aquors, even setting a rigorous training schedule for them during summer vacation so they can prepare for the Love Live! competition. She still retains the hard-working, mature personality she has from the beginning of the series, but she has a lot more energy and enthusiasm now that she's in a school idol group. More importantly, she's able to move on from the past and seek a new future with Aquors.
ABILITIES: Dia is an excellent singer and dancer: two traits required to be a school idol! She can also play the yamagoto, and is skilled in kitsuke, or the art of wearing a kimono.
For Subnautica, Dia can provide leadership skills. As long as she feels it's beneficial for the wellbeing of the base, she'll do what's asked of her, and will fight for a cause if necessary. Other than that, she...doesn't really have much else to offer. She's just an ordinary high school girl, after all!
INVENTORY:
- Her cellphone
- A μ's fanbook
- Her school uniform
MEMORY ALTERATION: Dia believes that she's coming to Iniidae for an opportunity to film an underwater PV, suggested by Chika.
SAMPLE: Hell actually exists in the form of an underwater base on Iniidae.
Dia likes order. She is a perfectionist in its truest form, picky about the smallest of details and experienced in (trying to) keeping others in check. She is the student council president of Uranohoshi Girls' High, after all, and she is fully committed to the role and its responsibilities.
Needless to say, when she arrives on base and realizes just how disgusting, unorganized and chaotic everything is around here, Dia feels herself approaching a meltdown. It's almost as if nobody here has cleaned in their entire life, which is extremely appalling, especially since they're in such a confined space. They can't afford to be living like animals; not if Dia can help it.
She spends the entire evening upon her arrival creating a cleaning schedule, jotting down notes on her cellphone. Everyone's going to play a part in keeping this base tidy, and she's going to make everyone work. This base is theirs--or perhaps URSULA's, she's not sure--either way, they need to make a collaborative effort to take care of it and take care of one another. In her mind, everyone will take turns each week--knowing the people on this base, asking them to clean every week may be too much of a chore--and since there are a lot of people present, everyone will only need to be on cleaning duty once a month or so. It's perfectly reasonable in her head and if anyone has any complaints, then she will welcome them to write up their own proposal on how to get things done more efficiently.
For now, however, Dia will rightfully claim her throne as HBIC. Because someone has to do it. They'll thank her for this later.
The next morning, Dia marches confidently to the kitchen with a group of papers in her hand. She made a magnet with the fabricator--look how prepared she is. She plasters the papers, neatly stapled together onto the refrigerator with the magnet, the first page of the papers reading "CLEANING DUTY" in bold, neatly handwritten font.
Immediately after posting the notice on the fridge, Dia pulls out her device and holds it up. She could very well send a mass text message about this, and she definitely will at some point, but she wants people to pay attention. She's very good at being demanding and bossing people around, so it would only be appropriate to use those particular skills here! (She hasn't figured out how to use telepathy just yet.)
Dia inhales before clicking on the device, speaking into the mic: "This is Dia Kurosawa. Frankly, I am very disgusted with how much of a mess this base is. We are not wild beasts; we are perfectly capable of taking care of ourselves and keeping this place tidy!
"That is why I have decided to begin a cleaning regiment. For those of you who are adverse to cleaning, do not fret, because my schedule only requires each person to clean once a month, so there should be no excuses for why you are unable to perform your cleaning duties. Do your part in keeping everything organized. Thank you."
She ends the feed, a triumphant smile appearing on her lips, fully prepared for any weak arguments anyone may have to offer. Bring them on.
