Rima is a very petite girl who stands at a height of 5 feet and 1 inch. She has redish brown hair that she inherited from her British mother while having the warm brown orbs of her father. She has very pale skin given to her through her Japanese family on her father's side. While she is petite in height she has a rather curvy frame with very slender arms and legs.

When it comes to her over all appearance Rima tends to dress in many different ways. While at school she wears the traditional pale yellow dresses of the female students and at home her style is rather unique. Rima enjoys standing out with her clothing choices. Often her outfits are full of bright colors and many dresses that are accompanied with white, or black stockings and a pair of black leather boots that come just above her ankles with small heels.

The over all length of her hair falls just past her shoulders with a set of bangs and a few strands falling in front of her ears. She pulls her hair up in many different styles depending on the day and her current mood. When she is feeling happy often it will be found in pigtails, or a side ponytail. While on a bad day her hair may be just down, or held up in a ponytail. Rima puts a good amount of effort into her hair to look presentable.

Rima does wear a bit of makeup on occasion, though it is usually no more than some eyeliner, mascara, and pink lip gloss. When she is working out her wardobe consists of running pants and a spagetti-strap shirt. While doing martial arts she will have on the traditional white Gi and her purple belt that signifies her level in karate which is a 4th kyu (Karate Level).

Rima has always been a very intresting young lady with a complex personality. She is rather shy and reserved when it comes to first encounters with new people. She is a creature that is often controled by her fears of social judgements that was trained into her by her own mother. However, once a person is able to get past those fears they find a very intresting entaglement of emotions.

She has many loves in her life. From martial arts to artwork and animals. She holds a great deal of desire to explore the possibilities for herself in the world. Yet, she is fearful of what she may find which is why she often hesitates and instead keeps herself tied to what she knows. The unknown is somthing that the teen hasn't learned to confront on her own.

She is very passionate about things that she beleives in. Often, she stands by her beleifs in her own mind, but it has not shown in the outside world very well. While she may be passionate, she is often fearful of the reations of other people and is afraid that her own actions will let people down in turn.

Rima is notorious for running away in an uncomfortable situation. While she may have a thick skull and a hard time realizing her own emotions it does not change the fact that she would prefer to turn tail and run over face what is not be the resonce she desires. She will keep herself from accepting certain things in her life even if they are a fact. Just to keep her own mind at ease.

Once a person is able to break through the many fears that Rima possesses they will find a rather sweet personality. She has a very gentle nature and is very respectful to people. The girl is a very hard worker with a great amount of dedication behind her. While she may bite her tounge and keep in her own emotions that does not stop her from having a very sharp temper. Although she is more prone to breaking things rather than speaking harsh words. So often she keeps herself distanced from people to keep them from seeing her many insecurities.

Rima was born into a very well known family. Her parent's marriage was one for simple business gains and to seal the agreements between two very competitive companies. Her father's family was known for the many hotel chains they controlled through out the world. While her mother's was for the great realestate empire. Both of the companies stood to profit from the other so they simply merged with the unity of their children.

Rima was the third child of three. She had two older half brothers who were almost and entire decade older than her. So growing up she felt pretty much like an only child. She was held to high standards and given a great deal of responcibilities. Her mother had high expectations for her to be the perfect young lady in japanese society. Her father on the other hand was a very hard working man that barely every saw his youngest child.

Rima had always attended Ouran academy since she first started school. While she was often too shy to interact with many other students over the years. She is very active with both artistic endevors and martial arts practices, although outside of that she tends to struggle a bit with her academics. She is not a terrible student in terms of grades. Although her own social paralysis keeps her from really exploring all that life has to offer the young student.

Growing up Rima harbored a lot of negative feelings towards her parents. Her mother was always pressuring her to be the perfect child while her father was almost never home. To keep her happy they would shower her with gifts that over time the girl just grew to break them. Finally when she entered middle school she noticed some people sparring in the court yard of the school. It caught her attention and got her thinking about maybe whatever they were doing being a possible release for her anger. So she ended up joining the karate club. Honestly her skills are not horrible...but they arent amazing either. Rima still has a lot to learn in the sport. However, it was where she first met Mitsukuni Haninozuka-sempai and took an intrest to him. It wasn't really until she saw him come into his bubbly personality that she really developed feelings for him though, even without her admitting it to herself.
