Description
Sally, whose real name is Risa Shiramine, stands as a central figure in the narrative. She is Kaede Honjou's longtime elementary school friend and an accomplished competitive gamer, her achievements displayed by trophies in her room. Initially introducing Kaede to the VRMMORPG NewWorld Online, Sally faced a delayed entry due to her mother's academic restrictions. Upon joining, she adopted the username Sally, an anagram of Risa, selecting the swashbuckler class and allocating every stat point to agility. This maximized her evasion, perfectly translating her real-world reflexes into exceptional in-game speed and reaction times. Her playstyle rendered her nearly untouchable, defining her as a true "dodge tank."
Physically, Sally has ash-brown hair and eyes, often secured in a ponytail with a white ribbon. At 155 cm, she is slightly taller than Kaede. Her in-game attire prioritizes mobility with a gray turtleneck, silver breastplate, gray coat featuring blue accents, blue scarf, extremely short jeans, white belt, and dark gray knee-high boots over striped socks. She wields ornate daggers with gold-accented handles.
Sally combines extroversion, practicality, and fierce competitiveness. Her extensive gaming experience fosters cautious strategic thinking, leading to unconventional tactics for her guild. She exhibits unwavering loyalty to Maple, consistently supporting her development despite Maple's unpredictable nature. However, Sally possesses intense phasmophobia, causing paralyzing fear towards ghosts or horror themes. This once prevented her from logging into the horror-themed Sixth Layer; attempts to overcome it through VR horror games proved ineffective. Conversely, in competitive PvP, she displays aggressive relentlessness, exemplified by her "red moon massacre" during the second event where she hunted players for silver medals. She also enjoys sports and swimming.
Her NewWorld Online journey includes significant milestones. After Maple participated solo in the first event, Sally joined and rapidly rose to prominence. She established the Maple Tree guild with Maple, later delegating leadership to her, and single-handedly gathered all required resources and funds within three days. During the second event, Sally and Maple defeated the hidden boss Silverwing, earning a rare monster egg that hatched into Oboro, her fox companion. Oboro augmented Sally's abilities with shadow clones and foxfire attacks, synergizing with her agility focus. Sally dueled Frederica to validate skills like Attack Guidance and Running Water. Following a battle with Dread, she refined her evasion by emulating his instinct and fear-based approach. On the Eighth Layer, she acquired a second unique item. Across events, she scouted rival guilds, engaged in PvP, and collaborated with allies like Maple Tree, Order of the Holy Sword, and Flame Emperor to overcome challenges, including defeating a leviathan during a modified event.
Sally's relationships are defined by mutual trust and camaraderie. Her deep bond with Maple is central to her motivations; she supports Maple's growth while striving to match her accomplishments as a fellow veteran. She maintains respectful, collaborative ties with Maple Tree members, contributing strategic insight and combat prowess. Her interactions with rivals like Payne and Mii often display sportsmanship, even amidst intense competition.
