Bio; Erei is a serious young woman who is singlemindedly patriotic. A poster child for the effects of Ellis’ propaganda, preparing for war has been the only thing she has known she has grown up. Like her parents, she hates Silver – but unlike them, she developed the desire to bear arms to protect her country. Her parents did not want their only daughter to be involved in the war, preferring she do something peaceful with her life instead. Erei refused, cutting ties with her parents. She lied about her age to enlist in the defense forces at the age of 17. Though Erei has been in the defense forces for four years, she has not promoted too high because of her inability to make decisions. She is exceptional at executing a plan once it is given to her – she is one of the most athletic soldiers in the defense forces, being a parkour master, and excels at firearms. She wears the standard combat uniform, with a pair of high tech boots that allow her to be more nimble and jump supernaturally high. Because of her natural athleticism, she's one of few soldiers who has the fitness for it.
But... Erei will get stumped if she has to make decisions. She once got her entire squadron ‘killed’ in a training exercise where her commanding officer, Lumiere Feliciano, made her in charge. She loves the military lifestyle as it's all decided for her; down to food and sleeping time. Other than that one training exercise which resulted horribly, Erei greatly admires Lumiere and would not hesitate to take a bullet for her. As she no longer speaks to her parents and isn’t interested in reconnecting with them until Insomnia is free of Silver’s rule, Erei treats her squadron like family.
She is very rarely seen smiling, though her teammates comment that if they see her parkouring around town, Erei looks… at peace. She considers it good military training and makes it a challenge for herself to run around looking for abandoned buildings where she might be able to plant something at the top… if only she could decide what to plant. Lumi allowed her to keep a planter in the dorms, where she grows a variety of herbs and other plants. Even though she grows her own plants, she’s not a flower person and can’t cook – mainly because she would never be able to decide what to eat on her own. She has given the people she likes tiny cacti; everyone on her team has their own that she grew herself. Erei likes cacti because they are resilient and can survive even in drought.
Most people outside of her squadron don’t know her indecisive, greenthumb side and see her as the perfect soldier.
