Rize Tedeza (天々座 理世?) is a main character of the Is the Order a Rabbit? manga series as well as its anime series.
Bio
Appearance
Rize has long, dark purple hair pulled up into twin-tails, with loose bangs and violet Tsurime eyes. She is the tallest of the main group and has a shapely figure, causing the others and herself to picture her modeling various outfits.
She wears a purple variant of the Rabbit House Café's uniform: a long ankle-length black skirt, white blouse, waistcoat and bow tie. Her school uniform consists of a black blouse with a white blazer, a white and grey plaid skirt and matching plaid tie.
Personality
Rize is a tough, cool, and headstrong girl who holds reasonable maturity over the others. She is bluntly opinionated but kind and wise, often offering advice towards the others. She isn’t necessarily a tsundere, but she can be blunt with her opinions, and has a vivid active imagination that can cause her to get carried away. Deep down she loves cute things, cosplay, and fears that she may not fit in, but she gets flustered if others see her vulnerable side. As a result she may try to act like a "normal" teenage girl to appear more relate-able.
As her dad was a member of the military, Rize is very independent and physically strong. She is talented in many fields and admired by friends and peers alike. However, she has become paranoid enough to carry a Glock and Combat Knife on person at all times.
Background
Rize's father is a soldier, and Rize has been trained for self-defense and being assassin-like for ages.
