♦ Katoka "War is not about who is right, it is about who is left." NAME   Katsumi Kato AGE   18 -> 20 GENDER   F ORIGIN  Japan HEIGHT   157cm WEIGHT   41kg BIRTHDAY   9/12

KATOKA Katsumi was not born into a rich family, however her father made enough being a salary businessman that her, her mother, and eventually her younger sister could live comfortably. The four of them lived in an older style house in the city that was passed down for many generations in the family. When Katsumi was in middle school she became interested in online video games after a boy she liked talked her into trying them. Soon it became her daily routine to finish quests and collect daily rewards in her favorite mmos. This gave her a reputation as an otaku and she was bullied for a period of time, which made her dive deeper into mmos. Once she graduated middle school Katsumi made it a point to go to a high school where there wouldn’t be anyone she knew. With this fresh start and a better idea of how to manage her social time and gaming, she managed to make a few friends and keep her hobby a secret. When the Nerve Gear and SAO were announced it was like a new calling for Katsumi. She talked her father into using his corporate connections at the software company he worked at to get access to one of the coveted 10,000 copies of the game. TRAITS Spoiler Virtues: Loyal - Due to her inability to open up to others that she isn’t close to, Katsumi manages to remain very loyal to the friends she does have. She loves them very dearly and would do anything for them no matter what. This allows her to forge strong bonds with the people she keeps closest to her. Passionate - Katsumi has always put her all into the things she does. Her drive to complete tasks on a daily basis is something that she feels very strongly about. It doesn’t matter how big or small the job is, she will finish it with the same amount of focus as any other task. Accepting - Since she was bullied at a young age Katsumi tends to be very accepting of the people she is close to. Although it takes time for her to warm up to a person, she will not think ill of them for whatever their hobbies or passions are. She doesn’t care about what they look like or who/what they like, as long as they are kind and good to others she welcomes them. Flaws: Anxious - When she was bullied for her love of video games it became hard for Katsumi to open up to those close to her. Her anxiety about her personal life was something that gripped her daily. Due to this it is hard for her to open up to anyone about her likes and dislikes unless it is someone she has grown close to. Obsessive - Katsumi has always enjoyed order and routine in her life, whether it be her school, home, or collecting of daily quests in games. Her room and the things she kept in it were always immaculate, she even kept a notebook at her desk with a log of her planned quests and research for future ones. However if anything were to prevent her from completing her daily routines it would cause her to panic until she can get back on track, or find something to do to distract her. Impatient - When it comes to completing a task, if Katsumi can’t complete it within the first two tries, it begins to irritate her. The same goes with if she can’t keep to her personal schedule. If she can’t get to where she needs to be to finish a task it will cause her to panic and begin to get irate. NOTES Spoiler N/A
