Riyo is a young teenage girl of average height, with a slender figure and pale skin. She has long, messy, red hair often tied up in a sidewards loop, with thick, long eyelashes of the same color framing green eyes. Her eyebrows are cropped and short.

Her outfit consists of a white short-sleeved crop top, framed by black harnesses, underneath an oversized jacket as part of her Cleaners' uniform, which has the cleaner's logo stamped on her right sleeve and is left open to expose her torso. She wears dark shorts secured by a large white belt holding two knapsacks, with one on her back holding her Full Face, and the one on her right thigh holding her Jinki. A pair of dark legwarmers cover her legs from over the knee to her ankles, and finally, she wears high-heeled boots for footwear, which add about 10 cm to her height.

Personality[]

Riyo lives with a 'carefree' mindset, even when facing a seemingly unbeatable opponent remaining free-spirited and calm. Riyo can be considered somewhat childish and unprofessional. Riyo gets excited at the prospect of a challenge, stating a 'strong opponent gets her fired up'. Riyo is known to have bad manners, whether it's sneaking away to meet Rudo or even her personal fighting style with the ripper. Riyo shows a particular interest in hair, playing around with Rudo's and asking if it's dyed or giving Trash Beasts a haircut, acting as a hairdresser.

Despite her rather warm personality, Riyo has demonstrated darker aspects of herself, where during her fight with Noerde, after hearing that no one can hear them, Riyo showed to be rather ruthless, pulling off a gun and incapacitating Noerde, and would have no hesitation killing the Raider except that Enjin banned her from killing, showing a rather cold and pragmatic side to her. When Noerde came back later, Riyo happily remarked that she should've killed her after all, showing no qualms about murdering someone. These traits of Riyo come from the fact that before she became a Cleaner, she had been working as a hitman.
