Personality: Saki is a friendly, yet, shy, Reyvateil, who holds mysterious powers, and scares easily. At the same time, she wants to help Aoto, though is also very self-sacrificing, very readily willing to give herself up to the Clustanian Army so as to avoid bringing harm to others. Because of her ability to pray for a 'miracle' from the Goddess, she has some missing gaps in her memory from using this ability. She loves children, and used to tell stories to a group of preschoolers in Ogai before the start of the game, and her Cosmosphere reflects a storybook-esque world.
Saki also likes sweets, as well as cute things, including cats; initially in her Cosmosphere, she tries to take on the role of a superhero named Nyamo Mask, which is... just a costume cat head that she wears over her normal clothes. Her 'miracle' power involves turning enemies into cakes, at one point, as well, though she's disturbed by Aoto asking her what people turned into cakes would taste like.
Although she wants to help Aoto out, and feels bad that a lot of things are happening because of her, Saki doesn't like it when people fight. This carries over to her Cosmosphere as well, where in the storybook-esque situations that play out, she takes on the role of Nyamo Mask to stop the bad guys. In the real world, one of her Hymmnos songs, EXEC_EP=NOVA/. talks about a group of cats that compete with each other all the time, and when Aoto tries to think of a plan to sneak Saki past the Clustanian troops, as having her switch to one of her other personae doesn't work, they have her wear a homemade cat helmet, and Saki starts calling herself 'Nyamo', speaking only in 'nyamo' as well.
Saki is also very childish, and tends to refer to herself in third person a lot; discounting her other personalities, Saki herself has a childlike mentality at times, and doesn't really seem to get a lot of things all that easily. Her manner of speech tends to reflect this, as well, though Saki seems to have an understanding about things like being kissed, or getting married... which she is of the standing that she isn't ready for that yet.
Regardless of what Finnel may or may not be up to, Saki likes the other Reyvateil greatly, and sees her as a good friend, calling her Filunlun♪ and Finny when they first meet, and on occasion when talking to Aoto.

Samples
First Person Sample: Did Saki get kidnapped again...? Saki woke up inside a house, but the lady there claimed to be Saki's mother... before sending her outside. That wasn't very nice. Saki found a cute puppy, too! [Referring... to the Snubbul she has, basically.]
Um... has anyone seen Saki's friends? I was with them not too long ago... Their names are Aoto, Finnel, and Cocona! So... if anyone has seen Saki's friends, let her know, okay? What should Saki do until then...?
Third Person Sample: Saki was no stranger to being kidnapped, but this was pretty new. An entirely new world, that wasn't anywhere within Sol Cluster? She didn't really get how this was possible, but Saki didn't really understand a lot to begin with. And... Aoto wasn't here either, or any of Saki's other friends. What was a Reyvateil like her to do?
"Saki is worried about Aoto..." she told the Snubbul next to her, "Do you think he's okay, Filunlun♪?"
"Snubbul. Snub," came the reply from the bulldog Pokémon; to Saki, this came as an affirmative yes. Clasping her hands together, the Reyvateil took a few deep breaths, before setting to the task of looking through her pack. More or less, it seemed like the sort of things that Aoto and the others carried with them already on their travels, so this was comforting, in a way; she could just pretend this was another part of their journey.
"This should be okay..." Saki remarked to herself, as she put the items back in her pack, "Aoto and the others are probably somewhere ahead! Saki will catch up to them soon, and I'll apologize for keeping them waiting."
"Snub! Snubbul!" Snubbul seemed to be more or less in agreement.
"Ah! But, do you want to hear a story first, Filunlun♪? It's one of the ones Saki tells the preschoolers... I drew it myself! Saki doesn't have the book with her, but I remember the story without it."
And... maybe she could tell the story along the way, too. Picking up her pack, Saki began to walk, Snubbul in tow. She wasn't sure where this road would lead, exactly, but, surely, Aoto and everyone else were somewhere down this road, weren't they? So, if she followed it, she would meet up with the others again.
"Once upon a time..."
