Appearance

Arisu is a stunning young woman, with a gentle look to her face that would make most think she could never be a Ghoul. She has quite a small body, standing at a height of 5'3", with a lithe build that hides her wiry muscle from giving away her physical abilities. Her hair is about medium length, barely reaching her shoulders. Usually she doesn't bother styling it, causing her light brown hair to be rather mussed, and her blunt bangs to be somewhat messy. Her eyes, a bright green colour, stand out to make her look somewhat different.

Usually, Arisu wears a white-pink layered top, alongside a pair of skinny white jeans. She also wears a silver necklace with an inlaid emerald. When she is in her Ghoul outfit, however, she wears a rusty orange top with a black trim that extends further on her left side than it does on her right. With this, she wears a pair of black jeans instead, which are a bit looser to allow her to move around more easily. Her orange-black mask covers almost her entire face, except for her eyes and the area around them. It is designed like a Phoenix, with a short beak and small plumage decoration at the edges of the side and top of the mask.

Personality

Arisu usually has quite the cheerful personality, again clashing with her status as a Ghoul. She is rather energetic, constantly moving about the cafe to either make things for customers or pick up leftover plates. When pressed for her history she rapidly changes the topic of the conversation, however from the way that she carries herself it seems she had an upper-class upbringing. While appearing rather selfless, eagerly volunteering for the nighttime patrols, she in fact does it because deep down she does just really enjoy a good fight, and going on nighttime patrols is the best way for her to get the chance. However, unless she has a reason to, she does not enjoy the act of killing, just the fighting beforehand. She will drag out the combat if she can, though she is perfectly capable of fleeing if the need arises. She is not consumed by the love of fighting, like some of those in Aogiri Tree, and she is still against killing others for unnecessary reasons. However, she keeps this fact hidden from the majority of :Re, afraid that they would kick her out for enjoying bloodshed.

She also enjoys making and fixing clothes, readily fixing any rips and tears in any of the outfits of the :Re employees to make sure they clothing looks immaculate and doesn't snag on anything. She particularly enjoys getting people to model her creations for her, especially if they are embarrassing in some way or another.

If someone turns to violence despite knowing Arisu, she feels personally responsible, a result of being unable to stop her brother from leaving, and thus losing her family. Because of this, she also deeply cherishes anybody she can become friends with, as living on the streets of the 20th Ward and only associating with those that she needed to has left her with an appreciation for people that care for her, and she cares for. As such, this leaves her eager to apologise if the situation arises where she could possibly need a reason to do so.

History

Arisu was born into a wealthy family, one that had kept their Ghoulish nature a secret for generations. She had a twin brother, and their parents doted on them both, making sure that they were fed well enough and that they were trained in the use of their Kagune as soon as it manifested, as well as self-defense.

However, the training and being doted on was not enough for her brother, who would often sneak out at night to go hunting for himself, as well as sating his bloodthirst. While she shared the desire to do so, Arisu would respect her parent's wishes and stay home. She did in fact try to prevent him from doing so, listing reasons that he shouldn't, but he shrugged them all off and still set out.

Eventually, Arisu's brother was tailed home by CCG investigators after he had earned himself a high rating, and the Ayako's manor house was attacked. Both Arisu and her brother escaped, and their parents died fighting against the investigators to allow them to do so. Arisu and her brother were 19 when this occurred.

Over the next year, Arisu opposed her brother as often as she could, blaming him for the deaths of their parents. However, though she did this, she also revelled in murder, enjoying the act of killing innocents for her meals, and she eventually earned a rating and a name from the CCG: Phoenix.

After a while, however, she realised her hypocrisy and repented from doing continuing acting that way, even if deep down she actually enjoyed it. Soon, she heard rumours of a cafe in the 20th Ward that served Ghouls as customers, and she went to find out if they were true, before finally finding employment as a waitress.
