### Backstory
---
The daughter of Fyuujin of the East's youngest daughter, and essentially; his granddaughter. Her mother was exiled from the Wind Dragon clan, leaving with her father, so at a young age, she ended up being taken care of by other family members; including and especially her grandfather, Tatsumaki Fyuujin.
Rakurai and Tatsumaki's bond was inseparable; he was both her main bona fide parental figure and mentor. As per family tradition, each member has to learn martial arts as well as the clan's very own arts. Rakurai was a keen learner and student, especially under her grandfather's wings. Tatsumaki's skill and power were unmatched, so, she's truly learning the best from the best. However, unlike other clan members, she has an oddly small mana pool, they didn't think of it as much, but Tatsumaki adapted to her condition, teaching her more physical techniques.
However, despite this and all the love given by other members of the family, Rakurai couldn't help but feel like she's some sort of black sheep. In fact; ever since her parents left her when she was a toddler, it was like her subconscious already knew what had happened, her mother was the very first person to be *exiled* from the clan, after all. This resulted in her feeling self-conscious at times, which ended up making her a shy and meek girl when she stepped into school. There were times where, despite her golden-shining grades and status, she was bullied. Though this wasn't much of a problem as long as her grandfather was there for her, along with her high school boyfriend,
Well, until he passed away, from a terminal disease. And he elected her as her successor.
Her grandfather's death impacted her entire life, of course. Not only that, it was then revealed that her low mana pool came from the very same disease her grandfather had, it was just dormant. This, along with the loss of a monumental parental figure, led her mind to fall down a dark path. Her boyfriend wasn't helping either, as they then broke up. She shut herself off from her clan, thinking to herself that they only took care of her out of pity, she was the dark sheep after all.
Despite this, she tries to keep pushing herself and be better, as she really took being the official heir to her grandfather to heart. The journey of obtaining the title wasn't an easy one, her own naivete led her to a branch of mistakes and even near-death situations. And in this journey, that's where she met Aanir, where she was weary and even standoffish of him, but after knowing each other they grew closer; eventually getting together.
Once she has successfully became the heir of her grandfather, she became some sort of celebrity and political figure. She'd go further and step up more in the world, but following her family's principles of wanting peace, she opts to just have her very own private detective agency. Due to her status now, she's always busy, often handling cases both in paperwork and physically, going to multiple interviews, talking to other figures, et cetera. She tries to find fun in her work, but there's something that's always in the back of her mind, eating her away.
Why are people more focused on "Fyuujin of the East's successor", and not "Rakurai"?
### Personality
---
At a glance, one might see her as a bit quiet and maybe even scary because of her scarred appearance. But she's surprisingly quite expressive and friendly; she can hit up a conversation with ease and even take initiative sometimes. She rarely ever raises her voice, so usually she does sound quiet, especially compared to her more extroverted husband.
Her being raised by a family whose principles are based on peace and pacifism, if possible, has also made her selfless, as she often would throw herself to help others even if the situation was dangerous. This also resulted in her now having some sort of "mom friend" vibe; sometimes she'd even ask people if they'd eaten yet. And after the events of the last Crossroads Tournament, she has definitely matured as well.
Remnants of her old self can still be seen, however. She still has this mindset to constantly work and always move forward, to the point where the term 'workaholic' fits her best. This can lead to her sometimes being too stiff or in a rush, though lately she has been trying to relax herself down. People referring to her by her title can make her a little sensitive too; be careful on that.
