Backstory
Before SAO, Amaji's life was fairly uneventful. As a child she always kept her head down, not really going out of her way to connect with anyone, since she lacked any kind of enthusiasm to socialize with anyone; In a nutshell, she enjoyed being solitary. At 5 years old, if she'd had the option to choose and knew what it was, she would've probably requested home schooling without hesitation. Unfortunately, her family was less understanding about her introversion, and she begrudgingly made a habit of pretending to be your typical average primary to secondary schoolgirl on a daily basis for 8+ hours a day, five days a week.

Realistically, it wasn't that she hated or disliked people, she actually just didn't like initiating any kind of connection with people. In fact, she did enjoy helping others when she could, finding satisfaction in knowing that she was able to keep someone from having to suffer. But if it came to a situation where she was given a choice between being around dozens of people or be alone, it wouldn't be hard to know which one she'd choose. 

As she got older, she did make some friends; Saori, a video game fanatic, and Jacob, a U.S. transfer. She had also known a girl named Ko Sato, but didn't really socialize with her much or befriend her due to the fact that it always seemed like Ko was antisocial, which Amaji could respect. Things didn't really change much for Amaji until after graduating Secondary, where she had gotten into her first year of college for a medical aid doctorate. If it were up to her, she wouuld have just tried getting a job, but she knew her parents would never shut up about it unless she showed some interest in pursuing a better career, so she chose the smaller headache of two evils. To make money, she'd often outbuy large amounts of damaged products, giving them repairs and renovations as seen fit until she could turn them all for a higher profit. Was this possibly illegal? Meh, maybe. At least it paid her well enough to not have to rely on her parents. 

At this point, Amaji had heard of Sword Art: Online, and Saori and Jacob would NOT stop bugging her about it. Apparently it was supposed to be some brand new off-the-line evolutionary VR experience, or something along those lines. Since she had enough saved up for a nervegear anyway, Amaji decided why not, and purchased one along with a preorder of SAO. Her friends would probably be able to get it within some weeks of it being out, but she could at least check it out for them and maybe help give them pointers on how the game worked when they could finally play.

Unfortunately, that wasn't the case, as Amaji quickly discovered by the rather noisy announcement in Town Square. If you ask her, Red hoods and dramatic hexagonal bleeding skies were more of a 2012 thing anyways. For the next couple of years, she kind of just lived around town, living life as normally as she could in some medieval age with a game HUD with icons on everyone's heads. But after a while, she once again forced herself to fake some motivation and do what she didn't wanna do: Play the game.

Virtues

Quote

Helping - If Amaji notices that someone is in trouble, then she'll do whatever she can to help them, granted that it's within her ability. She finds it hard to enjoy her day if some around her is upset or in trouble or pain, so she finds it easy to make sure everyone (granted that she cares about the people in question) are all having a good time. Otherwise, she'll just probably do her best to tune it out.

Loyal - Should someone ever befriend Amaji to the point that she actually likes their company, then Amaji will likely stand by that person and their actions without question, regardless of circumstance. Although not gullible or trusting to a fault, Amaji takes bonds seriously, and will fight tooth and nail for someone that she cares about.

Peacefully Strategic - Amaji is natually calm and collective when looking at things from a third person perspective, and is quite resourceful when coming up with solutions that keep her out of harm's way, or prevent conflict. In a death game such as this, that comes in even more handy. Amaji will tend to overanalyze any quest or situation, preferring to think and then double-think before acting. As much fun as it would be to be head first in a firing line, she'd rather not; At least, not if there's a better alternative that she can think of.

Flaws

Quote

Unmotivated - Her biggest flaw, Amaji doesn't have any personal aspirations, motivations or beliefs. She might enjoy life, but realistically she only wants to live her life, instead of doing whatever everyone else wants her to. This can make requesting her to do things sometimes challenging, as she has adapted the embodiment of the phrase "You're not my Boss".

Unforgiving - Should someone that Amaji trusts betray that trust, then chances are she will likely never trust that person again. Likewise, she won't stress about it either, because she usually expects disappointment from humanity on a regular, but that won't keep her from being salty about it and as stubborn as a level one boar. If she feels like her trust has been abused, then she will give no care in the world to delete that person from her life, unless they give her a very damn good reason not to.

Natural Cynic/Joker - Even during battle, it may be hard for anyone to get Amaji to take anything seriously. Similarly, it may be just as difficult for Amaji to not be found making a point blank remark, or a witty retort. Even though most of the comments and jokes she makes are just her being as unshaded as possible and earnest with her teammates about her opinions regarding being stuck in a videogame and facing death everyday, it can sometimes come off as hurtful or uncaring, which isn't her intention.
