Personality:

Yuuko is in general, a very pleasant person to be around, despite her nearly sinister appearance. She's almost unbelievably friendly, and she won't hesitate to approach someone to chat or see what's up. Most of the time she's pretty talkative, and while she likes small talk as much as the next person, she's pretty open to conversation topics, from paranormal stuff to lingerie, to boys, to how boring non-club things can be. It's rare to find Yuuko being not very cheerful. She seems to be smiling most of the time, and her bubbly and cheery attitude tends to lighten the mood considerably.

While she tends to be a happy and very pleasant person most of the time, Yuuko tends to be very mischievous. She really enjoys causing all sorts of rumors and ghost stories, and if someone is visibly freaked out, she'll mess with them just for the kick. However, she's not doing it maliciously or anything, it's all in good fun. She likes to make jokes and play along with all the ghost stories she creates as well, but if something isn't her doing, she'll let you know. She also doesn't particular like being called an evil ghost. To go along with her mischief, she's...somewhat shameless. Yuuko has no problem whatsoever flirting or teasing people with her body, especially if she likes them. While she does tend to tease a lot, there's still a bit of innocence to her as well. Sometimes she doesn't quite realize that she might embarrass someone, as she forgets that it might.

Although she claims to not really understand loneliness, she certainly feels and shows it. Since most people can't see or hear her, it's difficult to make friends or socialize. It's almost frustrating at times. However, if pressed about it, she'll try to change the subject and hide her true feelings on the matter. With some kind words and a winning smile, she can often get away with it. However, there are some things that really do bother her, like her death and some of the stories that really don't have to do with her. When she's feeling down, she tends to act cold and distant, a pretty big difference from her usually cheerful self, and she might even go so far as to avoid her friends. She also has a bad habit of just...pushing away anything she doesn't like. Memories, feelings, anything so that she can be her happy self and not have to be troubled.

Yuuko also has a selfish side to her. When things are going her way, she really doesn't like to give that up. She'll do whatever she can to keep things the way she wants them, even if it could be potentially harmful to others. However that isn't to say she won't regret it later, because she most certainly will.

Beliefs
1. Do you know your character's astrological (zodiac of choice) sign? How well does she fit type?

Yuuko doesn't have a canon birthday. I'll be playing her birthday in early August, which makes her a Leo. She fits it relatively well, but not perfectly.

2. Is this character religious, spiritual, both, or neither? How important are these elements in her life?

It isn't really brought up in canon, but Yuuko is likely familiar with the Shinto religion.

3. Does this character have a personal code of morals or ethics? If so, how did that begin? What would it take to compromise it?

Yuuko definitely has a sense of right and wrong. She doesn't like seeing others in pain, either physically or emotionally, and will do what she can to ease them, much as she'd hope they'd do for her. It's unlikely this could be compromised.

She'd likely be curious, so long as it doesn't completely contradict her own beliefs.

Does jealousy count? Yuuko gets very jealous when Teiichi spends more time with other girls.



Daily Life

Uh, she's kind of dead. So no financial situation canon-wise.

Yuuko doesn't really have a social status. In canon, most people didn't even know she existed.

3. Where does she live? House, apartment, trailer? Is her home her castle or just a place to crash? What condition is it in? Does she share it with others?

Seikyou School. She's sort of bound to the premises. Or post-anime, she becomes bound to Teiichi.

If she could spend money somewhere, she'd probably spend it on cute clothes or on a date!

5. What does she do for a living? Is she good at it? Does she enjoy it, or would she rather be doing something else?

She 'haunts' the school. It's alright, but she'd rather be able to be free and spend time with her friends outside the school.

Yuuko's interests lie in learning and spending time with the rest of her fellow club members!

7. What are her eating habits? Does she skip meals, eat out, drink alcohol, avoid certain foods?

Yuuko isn't seen eating all that often in canon, but I'm assuming she eats fairly regularly. She's also not a bad cook, although she can get a little crazy with recipe ideas.
