History: Erika was born to a single mother only aged 18. It was an accident but her mother has never doubted having Erika. When she was young, her mother Yukie found a husband and they got married. As she was too young to know her biological father, he was considered her father and she has only known him as her father.
As they grew up they moved around a lot to fit in with his work which was strenuous for Erika and her mother, but they didn't mind. He was making a big income so they were happy to move across Japan with him. They moved to Shiroiwa, Kobe, Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka amongst other places.
Then when she started school it all began to slowly change for her. As a shy and timid girl she found it hard to make friends, but when she eventually did, she had to move. This was upsetting for her and eventually Yukie saw this as well so they decided to stay where they were whilst the man of the house did all the travelling required for his long houred work day. The only problem though, Erika was unhappy in the school.
Whilst walking to school one day aged 8 she was pushed in to the road by two older boys, narrowly escaping the bonnet of a car. Aged 9 she was locked in a cupboard for three hours until somebody found her and every single day she experienced some type of bullying from her peers. They called her a geek, a dork and many other nasty things. One of the worse bullies is Ayane Yukari.
Appearance: Erika is a pretty girl with shoulder length dark brown hair. She is small and very skinny. Her skin is a creamy pink but her lustrous dark brown eyes really highlight her face. Despite not being popular, she gets some interest from boys who think she is attractive. She wears jeans and a blouse type t-shirt most of the time but in the hot weather she isn't afraid to wear a dress. Her favourite kinds of dresses are floral ones.
Personality: Erika is a shy and timid girl, but has a heart of gold. She'll never purposely cause grief or suffering to someone. Even with her enemies she doesn't retaliate. However, Erika is incredibly tearful and will cry at pretty much everything. Erika is one of the smartest people in her class if not the smartest but she doesn't gloat or boast at all. She is harshly bullied by her classmates but she doesn't mind. Erika is sweet and a natural cook, she often bakes cookies or cupcakes for her friends. Her specialty is vanilla cheesecake.
Strengths
Smart: Erika is very intelligent and could try to think up an escape plan in a Battle Royale situation.
Athletic: Erika may not be the very best at running and other athletic events but she would definitely give them a run for their money. Erika is very good at long distance as she has high amounts of Stamina, however she isn't very good at sprinting.
Cute: Her smile is sensational and with a flutter of her eyebrows she may be able to get out of a sticky situation.
Weaknesses
Paranoid: Due to her bullying Erika suffers from mild paranoia. She always assumes people are talking about her behind her back and she gets very uneasy when she sees people whispering or laughing around her.
Victimised: Erika is victimised amongst her fellow pupils and this would make her fear her life. Since she gets bullied so often she would feel as if nobody would mind killing her.
Trusting: Erika is very trusting, she would easily confess her thoughts to somebody who gave her any attention. She thinks anybody who would bother talking to her must be a very nice person so she trusts them easily.
Family
Yukie Sekimoto, 34, Mother: Yukie was unfortunate to have her boyfriend's condom break on them during sex which resulted in him leaving her aged 18 pregnant. She picked up the pieces and gave birth to Erika. Soon after birth she went back in to work and soon found herself in the arms of a loving man. They married and she quit work to became a full time mother. Yukie cares a lot about Erika more than any of her other children as she is well aware of the bullying but doesn't want to step in incase Erika gets upset with her. She use to read a bedtime story to her every single night and still has frequent hugs with her.
Takeshi Abe, 38, Biological Father: Takeshi's existance is completely oblivious to Erika. As far as she knows Satoshi Sekimoto is her father. Takeshi is a 38 year old drug addicted hooligan. He has been in jail multiple times and sleeps around. In a way it's a good thing Erika is unaware of him...
Satoshi Sekimoto, 40, Step-Father: Satoshi is a successful businessman and owns a series of large electronic appliance organisations across Japan, China, Korea and Malaysia. Despite not being the biological father, Satoshi treats Erika like his own. She looks up to him but he is often absent from the household due to work.

She is a popular girl but always leaves time for her studies and her flute. One day, Eiko wishes to be a successful musician or owner of her father's company. She is the typical daddy's little girl figure of the family.
Yutaka Sekimoto, 12, Brother: Yutaka is Eiko's twin. He has no musical talent at all but he follows in Erika's footsteps at being incredibly smart. He is top of his class but is popular. He wears glasses which he despises and cannot wait to get contact lenses of laser eye treatment. Yutaka has a very embarrasing birth mark round his neck which makes people pick on him, but besides that he is a good footballer and always plays cricket for the school team.
Reiko Sekimoto, 8, Sister: Reiko is the youngest of the five children by quite a margin and hates that fact. She is looked down upon by her siblings and her father as she isn't very clever and has no athletic or musical talent. Though despite this Reiko is really pretty. She tries her best to progress in her studies but it just doesn't happen for her. She is very scared of growing up and wants to stay a child forever. She loves the wildlife and also enjoys going to the local swimming centre with the all of her friends. Reiko is a very popular young girl and often plays the class fool in lessons landing her in a lot of trouble, but she doesn't mind as long as she has a good social life.
Kayo Kazuma, 61, Grandmother: A widow, she often prepares large feasts with her amazing culinary skills for her family. She has arthritus and is partially blind due to her old age, but she likes nothing less than meeting up with her two daughter's and their children. To her, Yukie was always a bit of a disappointment and she went out of contact with her for a few years after pleading with her to have an abortion and not to throw her life away. Good thing Yukie didn't listen, or Erika would never be here today.
Kayoko Fang, 31, Auntie: Erika is really close to her auntie and uncle and often spends weekends round their house. Erika's favourite meal is Kayoko's Spaghetti Bolognese, which never has any leftovers. Kayoko herself suffered from cervical cancer after giving birth to her only child Sabrina. She is also infertile due to this and has had some rocky patches with husband Chen.
Chen-Li Fang, 30, Uncle: More than anything, Chen wants a family. From Chinese descent, Chen has always wanted to live in Japan. As soon as he became 18 he moved out of his house and went to study Chemical Engineering at Osaka University. One day in the city centre he met Kayoko and instantly fell in love with her. Since then he has became a Japanese national and has reproduced with Kayoko to produce a daughter who he very much loves. Despite the constant arguments the pair are currently going through, he still loves Kayoko very much and would be devastated to see her go. He'll do anything to keep his family together.
Sabrina Fang, 7, Cousin: Sabrina is a little monster. She plays practical tricks on Erika all the time, the worst being when Erika woke up with buckets of water above her head and string tied around her ankle ready to tilt the water. Sabrina bites, kicks, nibbles and runs really fast. She is very intelligent and has an addiction to biting tables and other wooden items.
Extra-Curricular Activities: Erika is part of the book club and the chess club.
Classroom Behaviour: "Erika is a spectacular young girl and a splendid addition to the class. She has some trouble with some of the other students in her class but that doesn't prevent this bright girl from showing her full potential. Erika is a exceptionally smart girl and should definitely consider going on to further education."
Classroom Clique: Anybody who sticks up for her, but apart from that she hangs around with the quiet girls and does everything she can to stay out of trouble.
Would this NPC play the game? Definitely not. Erika doesn't have the physical or the mental strength to kill somebody. If she was to attack somebody and kill them, her conscience would eat her up and she would be even more likely to commit suicide. If she didn't immediately commit suicide, Erika would try to beat the game and hatch an escape plan. But suicide would be on the cards f or Erika from the start, especially if one of her friends were to die.
