Name: Rei Matsumo
Age: 17
Birthday: August 23
GPA: C-
History: The youngest of four girls, Rei has always lived in the shadows of her siblings. As a young child, she was always given the raggedy hand-me-downs and old toys of her sisters. Her parents barely made enough to survive on, and taught their girls little manners. This caused Rei to become rather sullen and act out for attention. This turned into violence and bullying as she got older, eventually ending up in a choice between attending the experimental school or going to juvenile hall.
While at the school, she fell in with like minded people, quickly latching onto the "gang."
Appearance: She has big boobs. No getting around it, somehow the gene for such things hit her bad. Otherwise, she's not really anything special. Short- 5'0", with dark brown hair and dark brown eyes, she doesn't have any sort of special face. Nothing (aside from her breasts) stand out. She dresses casually and usually makes an effort to hide her "assets," finding them rather annoying and embarrassing, especially when middle-aged men want her to go on dates with them.
Personality: Cold and rather rude, Rei doesn't make an effort to be much more than that. While she has the ability to be nice, she prefers to keep her distance from people, aside from the ones she knows and trusts. There is a soft side to her though, that very few people have ever seen-- Rei has quite the fondness for fairy tales, and wants to believe in things like unicorns and princesses.
Strengths-
Streetfighting: There's a reason she's at the school. She's not afraid of using things like razors and glass in fights.
Physical strength: She's damn strong, especially for a girl.
Self-reliance: Rei knows how to work alone.
Weaknesses-
In desperate need of anger management: Rei angers easily to the point of violence. She doesn't know how to solve conflict without her fists.
Lack of intelligence: The girl just isn't that smart. Even though she can fight, she's still not all that streetsmart either-- and definitely not booksmart.
Inferiority complex: She struggles with the knowledge that she's just not as good as everyone else,
Overnight Bag: Clothes (Jeans and a black tank top)
Father: Takahashi Matsumo- Her father is never home, always on some business trip or another. He doesn't make a lot of money, but what he does make, he pays the most important of bills, and spends the rest of it on frivolous things, like hookers and drugs. He's older, with thinning grey hair and a beer belly.
Mother: Makoto Matsumo- A stay-at-home mother, who does little aside from sitting around watching soap operas and eating. A large woman, Makoto doesn't take care of herself or the house, and it's quite obvious.
Siblings:
Sister: Hina Matsumo- The oldest of the girls, Hina has always been the darling of the family. Perhaps the only "successful" person in the family, she works as a secretary for the local gas company. She has a steady boyfriend in Shin Kubodera, another employee there, and lives on her own, a few miles from her parents home. 25 years old.
Sister: Keiko Matsumo- Next in line, and the exact opposite of her older sister. Keiko was the wildchild of the family, doing the whole "Sex, drugs, rock and roll" thing as a teenager, only to find herself pregnant when she was just fifteen. Having a baby at sixteen, whom she named Mio, essentially ruined the rest of her life. She chose to keep the baby and dropped out of school and attempted to get a job, but ended up staying at home with her mother to take care of Mio, as well as do the very random housework that actually gets done. 23 years old.
Sister: Hikari Matsumo- The second-youngest and Rei's biggest rival. She tries to be as perfect as Hina, but fails miserably. She is, however, arguably the smartest of the girls, though it's more an "evil genius" thing than anything truly useful. She's a complete whiz with science and math, but around people she becomes a complete bitch without even realizing it. She and Rei have often come to blows. 19 years old.
Neice: Mio Matsumo- A spoiled little girl, who Rei cares little for. 7 years old.

Taylor Takahashi: The friendship between Taylor and Taichi is really the only thing that brings these two together in any way. There isn't any animosity between the two of them, and they will be civil to another. Of course, with both of their tempers, there is always the chance that one will explode on the other.
