Personality and Appearance
Personality:
Saaya is very much an introvert, she learned this self-defence mechanism from a very young age, being that she would normally be forced to keep herself company. She is the sort of person who can easily handle solitary confinement with barely a complaint. She finds little need for socialization, although she is perfectly willing to attempt it in order to get what she wants.
Towards others, Saaya can be distant and cold and is often seemingly suspicious. She does not trust easily, and nor would she desire to have the ability to do so. This could be because, overall, Saaya knows that she isn’t completely trustworthy, so why should she trust others? Her nature is very blunt, and she can be mistaken for rude even when she does put in the effort to be less callous, regardless of the futility of her attempt. She is also manipulative and spiteful, finding that she would rather tweak things to get her own way than put in the effort and take the time to get it that way. To Saaya, people are usually just in her way and she would rather not be bothered. People are around her only to assist her, and worth only that. Perhaps she's just afraid of not being good enough, but Saaya believes she did away with that bit ages ago. She was given every material item she wanted since she was just a little child, and perhaps that is what was to become Saaya's ultimate undoing.
Saaya has also learned to find arrogance an attractive quality in others, merely because she finds it a powerful mindset to possess. To her, arrogance sends the message that they have pride and dignity, and that they will not bend over to anyone else's will. Saaya has menial respect for these people (that happens to be quite a bit, Saaya's respect is not earned easily), although she would never allow one such as that into her little group of what she considers to be nothing more than lackeys. Arrogance is trouble, even if it is admirable. This reflects Saaya’s warped perception of many things.
She also seems to have developed several personalities, with only two being completely evident if one looks hard enough. The most visible of her personalities is the darker one that most people are familiar with. Her spiteful ways and cold attitude are what greets most people the moment they enter into her life. When she is like this, Saaya is unpredictable and often nasty, sometimes going into fits of rage when no one is around. She likes having people working under her, and relishes doling out punishment, and finding physical justice the most suitable. To her, one can earn back their innocence through physical pain. She taught herself that long ago, and certainly doesn't mind teaching this lesson to others. But this sadistic part of her is only seen among those closest to her, and even then only the ones who haven't bothered to try to earn her respect. When she is like this, she cannot be reasoned with, and doesn’t pay attention to consequences; something a calmer Saaya might appreciate. When she is like this, Saaya is a danger to herself and others, but only because of her brash impulses. But despite all of this, when properly motivated Saaya can jump into leadership form, becoming dangerously calm.
The other visible personality is a sweet, loving, and ultimately frightened girl who has never learned the true value of spiritual intimacy. This could be because she is secretly worried that coming close to anyone would merely ruin her plans for her future and dispose of her success. This personality makes itself known when Saaya is alone, calm, and contemplative. When she is like this, she is tentative and known for thinking deeply for hours on end without moving. The tone of her voice will change, becoming softer, reflecting her cautious attitude. She is likely to withdraw inside herself when she is like this, taking several minutes to reply to someone if they were to speak to her. But anything can set Saaya off, making her unpredictable and fragile. One never knows with Saaya, but ultimately she needs to learn to care about others and not just herself.
She is also fiercely competitive and cunning, due to her intelligence and arrogance regarding her intelligence she can never accept second best. She has watched people, studied psychology, and grown to have a deep understanding of human nature and what makes people tick. Combined with her already developed skill of manipulation, Saaya is a force to be reckoned with when wronged. She isn’t known to be very forgiving, and if given the opportunity she would chase someone to the ends of the Earth just for the pure intention of spite.

Appearance:
Saaya has a very strong character, and she exudes this in her body language and within her eyes. Hazel with fragmented chips of color within, her eyes are often narrowed into what could only be called a thoughtful glare, directed at no one but the entire world. She is wary with her movements, though thoughtless with her words. Her body is fit and healthy, due to the fact that she likes to exercise to relieve stress, and that she very much enjoys fruits and vegetables because she finds junk food tastes disgusting.
Her pale skin (despite her half-Egyptian blood) is accented with the dark clothing she is normally seen in. A long, black leather trench coat with silver buckles down the sides and in part of the back is a common-seen amount upon her. Dark wash blue jeans and flat black boots extends to the world that she likes durable clothing, and cares little for anything that could barely stand a chance through a war. Her red hair reaches down her back and almost to her waist as she lets it flow naturally. Sometimes, but only rarely, will she add blue or bright orange or red streaks to her hair (fake ones, of course) to add a little color. She has long, athletic legs due to her standing of almost 5'8".
Saaya looks very much like her mother, which is ironic considering she has never felt an ounce of affection towards her. If one would see Saaya standing beside her father, it would be almost impossible to guess that they were related. Her father, with his darker skin and dark hair, looks very little like the pale-skinned, red-haired Saaya, even if you can recognize that she does have an olive complexion that could only come from him. But stand her mother beside her, and you will see the resemblance between Saaya and her Japanese/Scottish mother.
History
History:
Saaya grew up on a large estate on the outskirts of Cairo, Egypt; born to a wealthy family with a workaholic father and a stay-at-home spendthrift mother. Neither parent bothered to spend much time with her when she was a little girl, and she basically grew in the care of nannies or distant relatives. She was never socialized with much as a child, so she was forced to learn the proper behaviours on her own, never getting along well with other children in school, but at the same time acting as a leader for them. In every way, she struggled to please, aiming for some higher sort of recognition. But teachers never thought well of her, thinking of her know-it-all attitude as Saaya's fault. But she had always been an intelligent child; she just never knew how to properly show it. These early experiences with people were negative, and obviously influenced Saaya’s fragile, emotionally demanding, awkward personality. When Saaya turned eight, her father received a job offer in Japan, where Saaya’s mother had grown up, and they moved there.
Despite the lack of attention Saaya received at home, she started to develop a certain affection for her father and strove to please him when trying to please others failed her. Of course, this natural affection got her no where in earning the approval of her busy father, but she refused to give up, never a quitter, and aimed to teach herself a few tricks aimed in his direction. Being that she knew he worked with computers and that was all he ever did, Saaya placed the two together and decided to teach herself what she could. She even studied Latin very carefully in her spare time, thinking that another language might impress him. It failed, but nevertheless she established for herself a useful talent.
At fifteen, Saaya left her home, tired of living with her family when she was taking care of herself just fine without them. She used the help of her uncle on her father's side, having established a rather odd relationship with him, with it being close yet also cold and distant. She carried on by herself, her uncle assisting her with things when she needed him. A few months after moving out, Saaya’s father contacted her and she reconciled with her parents, moving back to her home with them though basically having a whole floor of the spacious home to herself. She stays with them so that they can pay for her schooling. Her uncle, Amen, could not pay for her to go to Ouran, so she realized she was stuck with her mother and father.
Saaya has basically removed herself from her family, finding them useless, communicating with them only slightly and on rare occasions. She has also ceased seeking the approval of others, doing away with this childish concept. Her inward focus on herself has made her callous, demanding, and arrogant almost to the point of narcissism.
Family:
Isah Hatshepsut [father, aged 45]
Arian Hatshepsut nee Wilkes [mother, aged 39]
Amen Hatshepsut [uncle, aged 43]
Friends: None at the moment
Enemies: No one that she could put a face and a name to, but she probably has a few that she started off on the wrong foot with.
