Arknights: Flowers in the Mirror

One female lead, no System, slow-paced, healing, combat, idol ⭐

A character backstory for an Arknights tabletop role-playing module. For creative reasons, some characters differ from the original, and additional backstory has been added to support the plot. Here is the synopsis:

“From Yan to Kazimierz, Tao Wenrao was cold and hungry, lost in a daze, when she opened her eyes in a café:

‘This is a robbery. Hand over all your money.’

But from that moment on, everything Kazimierz had to offer, good and bad, flowed into her wandering life.

‘Become an idol knight. That way, you can fill your stomach, become famous, and find your family.’

An idol knight… Is that the kind who dresses all fancy? Wenrao glanced at the poster on the street corner and hesitated.

‘Can I choose a different job? A regular knight?’

‘That’ll be difficult,’ said the pink-and-blue-haired Lupo with a smile, twirling a lock of hair around her fingertip.

And so this is a story about debuting as an idol knight and searching for one’s family.”

She closed the book and wearily swished her long tail, coiled in midair. Her pale scales refracted the light into a rainbow.

Whenever she read this passage, she could always recall that misty morning, that warm midday, that crisp evening, and that clear dawn.
