In-game Appearance:
(The current image is the closest thing I could find to what she would look like and is temporary. Luc has wavy long white hair pulled into a ponytail and silver eyes. Her face is angular and is dotted with small freckles. She is somewhat skinny, but just barely. She currently wears the game’s default starter gear in navy blue.)

Profile
Username: Luc
Real name: Lucie Lemaire-Stevens
Age: 18
Gender: Female
Height: 5’ 11”

Background
Luc was a bastard child born to an American father and French mother in early two thousand four, the father was a businessman, who Luc didn't know all too well and rarely saw for most of her life. Luc is an only child, and was mostly raised by her mother. In her childhood, she developed a love for music of all kinds, and strived to learn how to make music. However in two thousand twelve, when she was just eight, the family dynamic changed. Her mother had been seeing someone else, and was caught when the father came home early from one of her long business trips. There was a long period of unease and fighting between her parents, during one of these fights that occurred while the family was visiting a beach and pretending to be functional, while the two were fighting, Luc was pulled into the water by the waves and began drowning. Luckily someone noticed in time and was resuscitated, this appeared to be the breaking point for the family, and it was also the time where Luc developed a fear of bodies of water. The family split apart, her mother moved back to France while her father stayed in the states, and every few months she would switch parents. Since her father was almost always wrapped up in her work and always moved around, she developed an extroverted personality due to all the people she met. When she went to France to visit her mother, she spoiled her, giving her privileges, gifts, and other things she wouldn’t have gotten from her father. This went on for a long time, until her father found out, and he too began to spoil her. Like a game, both parties tried to get her to prefer one parent over the other.

Which brings us to now.
About two weeks before November of 2022, it was time to visit her father. Her father normally can’t take Luc with her on her trips, but this time was different, Luc and her father got into an argument. Luc admitted that she felt like her father was neglecting her, sure her father bought her things when she wanted and gave her relative independence, but Luc felt like she never gets to see him much and talk to him. This influenced her father to change his mind, and bring her with on his trip, which in this case was to japan. Luc didn’t know much about Japan, other than it existed. So she was excited to see new places, she spent a lot of the week roaming with her father on a half vacation and half business trip, and she was enjoying it. On the 6th, her dad bought her a surprise, a present, Luc curiously opened it to find Nerve Gear. She had actually heard of this, it was supposed to be some kind of new wonder tech virtual reality console, it was quite popular in a lot of places, and she had even seen it in articles claiming it as the greatest thing humanity has ever created, so Luc decided to give it a go. Her dad had bought two of them, one for Luc to use, and one for her to use so they could play together. Right before they went in, her father got a call he needed to take, so he told Luc to go on in ahead of him and that he'll join her after the call.

Luc spent the next two hours waiting for her dad to show up in game, and she never did. Soon after, everyone was teleported to the center of New Beginnings, and you know the rest.

Virtues
Sociable
    Caused by years of meeting people around the world, Luc has become relatively extroverted and can be quite pleasant to talk to. She also is pretty good at reading the room, if things are tense or gloomy, she is usually the first to notice.

Caring
    Luc really cares about other people, she carries a lot more empathy in her heart than the average person. So, as long as she feels that her actions are helping people, she will do just about anything. She also believes anyone is redeemable, depending on what they’ve done, and is likely to forgive just about anyone who has wronged her.

Passionate
    Luc is passionate about a lot of things, and as such she will enjoy doing them. Such as playing music, sightseeing and hiking, even just talking to others. So, she can be somewhat inspired to do things at times.

Flaws
Crippling Aquaphobia
    Luc is haunted and reminded of a traumatic memory from her youth where she was pulled away from land by the receding waves and tossed around by them until it pulled her into the water where she, since he didn’t know how to swim, began to drown. The only reason she is alive today is because an onlooker noticed in the nick of time, and ever since then, she avoids all bodies of water like lakes, oceans, ponds, and even pools like the plague. She will likely panic when around or in water.

Thoughtlessly Spoiled
    Spoiled by her mother and father in order to earn her affections, Luc has learned to subconsciously expect things to be handed to her on a silver platter. She will get frustrated when things don't go her way and isn’t used to having to compromise her wants. She will need to learn to adapt to not having a soft cushion to fall back on soon, or she won’t live for much longer in a world where one mistake can be her last.

Hopelessly Illiterate
    Luc does not have the faintest idea how to speak or write in Japanese, and she is trapped in a world where the primary language is just that. Even her menu is unreadable for her and she has no idea how to change it to another language, and has only made it so far with context and common sense. This has made making friends, trading and bartering with NPCs and players, or even understanding quest objectives damn near impossible for her
