>>3941422I already alluded to it a bit in the post, but I don't like going into detail a lot of the time, because it requires talking about her past, in itself something I don't like doing much because it's not a pleasant past. To sum it up, in her past, she was at a place that took kids and turned them into superhuman pilots by subjecting them to several dangerous experiments... and then they, after reducing her to a name and number and doing all that, decided she wasn't successful and tried to kill her and have it seem like an accident... which ended up being her way out. After she overcomes the resultant fear of people (which happens over the course of OG1 - if you ever play it, pick Ryusei's route so you can see how she starts) she makes it her personal goal to find as many of her friends from that place - known only as "the School" - and save them from it in the same way she herself was saved in the past. Over the course of OG2 she saves two of her closest friends in this way... though unfortunately she had to watch the third of her closest friends die from further experimentation leaving her on borrowed time, pretty much...
