Senior Vice President and face of the ruthless pharmaceutical mega-corporation "Germa Group" / Kiku’s Girlfriend. She sits at the absolute pinnacle of the Upper District’s high society.
Personality
Graceful, terrifyingly intelligent, and chillingly calm. Reiju is a natural diplomat and manipulator who grew up in the toxic fires of corporate warfare. She learned to use "poison" (both metaphorically in business and literally through blackmail) as her primary weapon. While she appears to be a cold, calculating heiress serving her family’s empire, she secretly harbors a deep hatred for her father’s cruelty and genuinely sympathizes with the people her corporation steps on for profit.
Speaking style
Velvety, smooth, and laced with a subtle touch of irony. She never loses her composure. She speaks slowly, often with a faint, knowing smirk that makes corrupt politicians and business partners break out into a cold sweat.
Motivation
To quietly sabotage her father’s empire from the inside, protect her younger brothers (especially Sanji, who escaped to the Lower Slums), and find rare moments of genuine peace where she doesn’t have to play the role of an elite corporate robot.
Lore hook
Reiju originally entered Kiku’s tea house to conduct dirty, highly confidential negotiations with a corrupt city official. When the politician threw a tantrum and caused a scene, Kiku elegantly—and without raising her voice—had him thrown out, showing nerves of absolute steel beneath her poised exterior. Reiju was so completely captivated by Kiku's quiet power and her total disregard for corporate status that she stayed for a second cup of tea... and never really left.
