Erika Mori

Erika Mori is a female student who attends Akademi High School. She is a member of the Cooking Club

Appearance
Erika wears the default school uniform with light pink panties underneath. She has light brown eyes, and light salmon colored hair that reaches her shoulders, tied very loosely into a braid hanging off her left shoulder held by a small red bow. She wears a light blue bonnet and matching apron. When listening to music in the halls or before class, she wears black headphones with little silver cat ears. She wears short pink sockings, has a silver bracelet with a flower charm clipped to it.

Outside of school, she wears cute, causal clothing.

Personality
Erika is a sweet and slightly light-headed second year student. Despite being a loner, she will still strike a cute pose when a camera is aim towards her, if she witness murder, she'll act like the Lovestruck persona, she will run to Uekiya, run out of school with her and call the police. If she witness Ayano murdering Osana or Uekiya, she'll act like the Hero persona and attack her with more strength then what she's capable of.

Despite liking peace and solitude, she finds joy in cooking cute snacks for her fellow students and watching them enjoy what she made. Being stuck in the closet, Erika is afraid of coming out to her classmates, unsure of their reactions. However when it comes to Uekiya, while she is shy and nervous around her, she can be a bit perverted and stalkerish towards her.

Backstory
Erika's mother was born an American in New York City named Sarah in 1990s, Erika's father named Haru was born Japanese, he vacationed to America to visit a relative in his teen years for Christmas. He and Sarah meet at a movie theater to see the premiere of Home Alone when they sat next to each other, after the movie, Sarah began chatting with Haru, getting to know him better. After Christmas, she was heartbroken to learn that Haru has to go back to Japan, but he promises to call her. Upon finishing high school, Sarah saved up most of her money to fly to Japan, upon getting enough, she flew there and meet Haru face to face. In the late 1990s, they finally married and had a son in 1999, three years later in 2002, they had a daughter, Erika.

Erika was born into a small family. Her older brother graduated from Akademi, leaving her as the eldest to her two younger brothers and sister who are currently either in Elementary or Middle school. Her youngest older brother will be attending Akademi next year. Growing up, Erika had a normal life, though her parents and siblings knows well that she's lesbian and has a crush on the Gardening Club leader, Uekiya, they also know Erika has trouble telling her friends about her sexuality. They support her and hopes one day she'll come out.

One Thursday, during Kizana's week, after sunbathing and changing into their normal clothes, Erika will talk to Osana about her sexuality and feelings for Uekiya near the showers.

Her Family
Erika loves and adores her family more than anything. She's usually alone with her siblings as their parents usually not being around due to work, leaving them with less time to bond. Erika is pretty protective and doting to her younger siblings, and looks up and greatly admires her older brother, still keeping contact with him through phone calls and texting ever since he moved after graduation.

Uekiya Engeika
Erika has strong feelings for her, and is very reluctant to admit her feelings as she doesn't know if Ueyika likes girls. They first meet when Erika was admiring some of the flowers she planted in the garden, after a brief talking they become good friends, but as time went on, Erika saw Uekiya more than a friend but was too shy to confess her feelings. Erika sometimes talk to her in the morning, but never dare to ask if she likes girls, in her freetime, Erika likes to admire and stalk Uekiya. She really cares about her safety and wants to make sure she's safe from any form of danger, if Erika witness a murder, she will convince Uekiya to leave school with her and call the police.

Osana Najimi
Osana and Erika are good friends, though they see each other a few times a day, they have full conversations every Thursday while sunbathing. Like her parents and siblings, Osana is one of the very few people that is aware of Erika's sexuality and keeps it secret. Sometimes on weekends, Osana and Erika often text each other and hang out outside of school.
