Edelweiss-KRDS Dev Diary #3 - Yuki Iwasaki [Paternal Autocrat]
Welcome one and all, to our latest dev diary and our latest waifu! This time, we'll be visiting East Asia and the land of the rising sun, in order to take a look at a girl who exemplifies wealth, militarism, nationalism and everything reactionary.
Yuki Iwasaki was born during the final months of the Weltkrieg to a life of power and privilege. Her family proudly traces its lineage back to a samurai clan that has loyally supported the Emperor from the Sengoku Jidai to the Meiji Restoration. More recently, they gained immense wealth by investing in Japan's growing industry and finance during its modernization, becoming leaders among the Zaibatsu and securing a place in the upper echelons of society. Today, her father is a prominent executive in the Japanese military-industrial complex, and her mother is one of Tokyo's most well respected ladies, frequently hosting elite parties and events. Yuki herself works diligently with the finest tutors to hone her skills and to prepare herself for leading the Iwasaki clan in the future. Now, she's gone to continue her studies in the west, so that she can further her education and make her loving parents proud. They are Japan's model family.
Or, at least they're supposed to be. If Tokyo gossip is to be believed, then the Iwasakis are still reeling from the death of Yuki's older brother, her only other sibling and the original heir to the family fortune. Some say that the new heiress and her parents don't actually get along half so well as they pretend to. Some even go so far as to say that she's gone to Geneva precisely to get as far away from her family as possible.
No matter the reason, Yuki is determined to make Geneva her city. Brash, bold and more than a little arrogant, she's used to getting her way and getting the respect that her position damn well demands. But despite her... 'strong will', anyone close to Yuki may find her to be kind and caring in her own ways. It's just getting close, that'll be the hard part.
Now here's some awesome concept art by our awesome artist, u/ButteryIcarus
