Bio
The only child of a prominent and relatively wealthy family in Orly, Cille had a privileged upbringing and a happy family life until the storms of oppression and rebellion began to stir. Her parents were killed in a car accident nearly two years before the current events, at which point her adoptive brother Raef legally became her son - and the two discovered that their parents' wealth had become depleted over the years. Cille has a good reputation among the people of Orly, although there are some who resent her for her status and see her as an elitist. She has few really close friends, among them Eric Ominae and Luna Monegossde. She met and became engaged to Landon Blaken in a whirlwind romance that lasted until his abrupt departure a year ago, and while she has done her best to get over him she still longs to see him again and try to get some closure.
Cille has always been reluctant to get involved in the rebellion, but after Raef's kidnapping she sets about trying to find him and learn more about Landon's Blacken Syndicate. However, it is not until she is directly targeted by the Syndicate's enemies - and loses her home and her job in the process - that she resolves to devote herself to opposing Ozzal's tyrannical regime. Fortunately, she is taken under the wing of the protective Straight Cougar, a friend of Landon's and an ally of the Syndicate. Unfortunately, she is captured by Ryuho during the mass arrests of Syndicate members and sympathizers. While imprisoned she is brutally murdered by Spice, who is under the control of Matrix's latest mind-control drug. Upon learning of her death, a grief-stricken Cougar uses his incredible speed to literally turn back the world, allowing him to come to her rescue and take her to safety. The experience brings the two of them closer together, although they both have reasons to be reluctant to admit that they could be falling in love.
It is subsequently revealed that a future version of Cille has come back and has been working with Landon to try to prevent the disastrous outcome of the war in her time. They allowed the present Cille to be captured by Ozzal in the hopes that she would be killed, believing this to be one of the keys to their success. Future!Cille accompanies Landon when he reassumes control of the Blacken Syndicate to advise the revolutionaries. It is FURTHER subsequently revealed that future!Cille is really being manipulated by Blaken.
Chapter Stuff
A newspaper article about the capture and death sentence of a member of the Blacken Syndicate leads Cille to worry about her former fiance, Landon Blaken, whom she has not seen for almost a year. She is further shaken up by the news (delivered by her friend Luna Monegossde) that her son Raef has been kidnapped.
Cille is seen sitting in Luna's cafe being kind of emo.
Cille mulls over her backstory: her happy childhood and privileged upbringing, the addition of young Raef to her family after the death of his parents, getting her own apartment and job, the death of her own parents and her subsequent adoption of Raef as her own son, their discovery of the depletion of their parents' wealth, and finally her romance with Landon Blaken, which began idyllically but fell apart after he left her to start his revolution.
After Raef's kidnapping, Cille begins looking for intel on the Blacken Syndicate but comes up empty. After losing her apartment and job under suspicious circumstances, she strikes out on a bolder mission, and is taken in by Straight Cougar, an old friend of Landon's and ally of the Syndicate who has been keeping a protective eye on her for some time. While initially suspicious of the enigmatic Alter user, Cille comes to sort of mostly trust him (despite being largely unable to handle his driving). Cougar takes Cille to a Syndicate meeting, where she receives a mixed welcome into the organization.
