History
Make-believe is the best game anyone can play. You can do anything, be anyone, and all the unfair rules of the real world don’t matter anymore. This creed became so ingrained in Sakura’s mind that she no longer wanted it to be ‘just a game’.

When she was little, Sakura loved to pretend. She took an otherwise boring childhood and made it exciting, creating stories and adventures and friends and memories. What started out as a commonly innocent manner of play, however, gradually evolved into an obsession that infected all facets of her life. Her mother eventually tried to dissuade her from such unbecoming behavior, but her discipline rarely resulted in any long-lasting improvements.

As she grew up, Sakura had one or two close friends at a time while she was at school. Of course they were labeled as the weird kids, since they were the ones that still played pretend at lunch break and ran around in the field having fake magical sword fights in gym class. In middle school, she discovered a lot of the online world and settled right at home into a popular MMO at the time. Calcifer, she named her other self. The one who would become the most awesome Ember-Knight in the realm!

Personality
“Yes, I’d like to pre-order the Nervegear bundle, please!” Sakura’s chest was puffed up with confidence and enthusiasm. Surely they still had some spots available. She’d been waiting in line for over two hours now--this was the moment she’d been waiting for! The exhausted worker on the other side of the counter in the crowded, and now kind of musty, game store tapped away on their keyboard, leaving Sakura in breath-holding suspense.
“115,880 yen.” The cashier looked up from the computer and stared back at her expectantly.
“Oh! Yes, of course!” Sakura fumbled with her purse and went to pay the nice person. She could almost feel her soul leaving her body along with the large sum of money she handed over, but no matter. It was going to be so worth it.

Virtues

• Brazenly Optimistic - With a grin on her face and a fire in her heart, Sakura tries to look on the bright side in every situation. That’s the best way to live happily, after all. Thinking of the downsides in everything is just...too sad.
• Unorthodox - She may not tackle every situation in the most predictable way - and that’s part of the fun! She’ll most certainly tackle every obstacle thrown at her, but thinking outside the box is step one.
• Anything But a Quitter - She’s persistent, and it shows in the best and worst of situations. Most of the time, it’s probably just foolish stubbornness. Plenty of times, it hasn’t been worth it. Either way, Sakura hates giving up, and she’ll commit everything she has when she sets her heart on it.

Flaws

• Technologically Illiterate - Sakura’s been playing video games for a couple of years now. Well...just one video game. One video game in which her only real focus was to run around, explore, roleplay, and blindly take on any quest that popped up in front of her. She’s got a lot to learn.
• Delusional - For a 14-year-old, she is almost impressively immature. Her heart and mind are a mystery, and many people might wonder if the fantastical delusions she prattles on about are truly real in her head. There haven’t been many people that embraced her way of living, and so she marches on to the next great adventure.
• All-Nonsense - There’s a reason Sakura and her friends were usually ostracized. She’s weird, annoying, and often just a nuisance. She hardly takes anything seriously that needs to be, and while her childish nature might be fun and entertaining to some, it’s downright infuriating to others.
