Profile
A first year Student of Gekkoukan high, Himeru Namikawa is on all accounts a simple girl with simple tastes, thriving in the social game of High School as someone who will do everything in her power to blend in. Her attitude at school generally gravitating toward cold facts and a genuine lack of human warmth, while outside school she generally allows a little greater display of emotion. A Persona-User, she tends to vary between two extremes of use: Complete and absolute control or excessive and unrelentless brutality.
Persona
Hannya is a jealous masked demon meant to represent the malice or sublime emotions of human beings. An ogre-sized woman, her limbs are slender yet freakishly long as she stands well over 6 feet five inches even when bent forward a little, her limbs however are perfectly concealed beneath the robes and garb of a typical japanese miko priestess. The holes in the face show nothing beneath, only darkness, although on occasion two crimson lights can be seen in the eyeslots. Her powers range over Darkness and physical attacks.
It is unclear what sort of abilities Himeru gains passively from Hannya.
Dark Secret
Play with her and find out someday.

Friends and Relations
Note that all of these are from character perspective and some friendships may well be 1-sided. Things are also represented as on a chessboard.
Shiki Ichimonji - B1 - Shining Knight - Shiki is disarming with his cheerfulness and just how outgoing and energetic he is, enough that he managed to slip through Himeru's barriers. He is seen as someone very genuine about how he feels, or the greatest actor ever if he isn't. His honesty and kindness has made him someone worth knowing and calling a friend.
Itsuka Mizuhara - C1 - Cheerful Mage - Itsuka struck as the foil of Shiki's exuberant attitude, the dose of reality and down-to-earth attitude. Yet she has a certain air about her, a strength of will and the ability to stand against Himeru in debate that earned her respect and some degree of caring that Hime isn't entirely comfortable about.
Shinjiro Aragaki - G1 - Grey Knight - On the opposite end of the board, Shinjiro Aragaki is a man who represents experience in many fields, yet a gruff sense of wisdom. Lacking in tact, he was found to be refreshingly direct, blunt and honest about matters that people tiptoe about. His attitude is not monochromatic either, making him even more interesting to Himeru. He also has a strength that she wishes to overcome, seeing his ability as a challenge and his past as a warning of how she could stray. Hime cares for his wellbeing, but has no illusions about the reverse and believes he probably sees her as an acquaintance or annoyance, or maybe worse.
Ran Itoh - F1 - Kind Bishop - An indirect acquaintance, Ran Itoh was met due to the Misadventures of Shinjiro Aragaki. While they did not have a chance to chat there and then, they later met at the Lucky 7 where Ran's unexpected kindness and cheerful attitude made Himeru smile a little. While the two don't really know each other much, she is considered as someone nice and pleasant to be around.
Shiori Hibiki - D2 - Gentle Soul - A girl encounted first in Inaba' strip mall, Himeru's relation toward her WANTS to be good and friendly, but is driven by guilt as Hime seems to be unpleasantly skilled at causing distress or indirect harm even when it wasn't her intention. Himeru is thus driven with the desire to make it right someday, even if Shiori may not feel it to be such a big deal.
Thora Kobayashi - H1 - Bloodied Tower - An acquaintance due to the Misadventures of Shinjiro Aragaki, Thora has so far been an intriguing person. Her admissions of past acts and how open she was about it hinted at a degree of courage Himeru found a little awe-inspiring, even if the acts themselves are not. Her strength and how she stood tall and strong (not to mention she's pretty big for a girl) are intimidating, but at the same time only serve to increase how she seems interesting.
