The World of Otome Games is Tough for Mobs. Appearance Marie has knee-length blonde hair that has chin-length hair strands framing her face with square bangs hanging over her forehead, her eyes have a clear sky color and she's petite, being short with a small chest and slim body. In her past life, she was more voluptuous and attractive enough to work as a hostess, and isn't too happy with her current body. Personality Marie comes off as a kind and shy young girl from the outside. In reality, she is a manipulative and selfish person who has no problem manipulating others for her own gain. But after learning that her brother also reincarnated with her, she begins to work with him. She learns how to be more calculative, gentle and trusts her brother's decision. She is also forced to act like a mother-like figure towards her reverse harem, as their privileged upbringings have made them quite immature and impulsive. She has a strong desire for money born from two lives of monetary struggle. Her desires grew after the prince and his group are disinherited and Marie is stuck having to support herself, Kyle, and the prince's group all while fighting her family's massive debt. However, unlike Leon, she is strongly opposed to gambling to make money due to being stuck with gambling debts in both lives. Despite occasionally seeming childish and short sighted, it should be noted that Marie is actually quite intelligent. She was able to manipulate the prince's entourage so completely that, even after all of her lies revealed, they all are still completely devoted to her. She was able to do this as well as become recognized as the Saint without ever completing the actual game, using cut-scenes and CGs to figure out the story, something that impressed even Leon. Another case is, throughout her time in the Alzer Republic, she figures out that Loic's relationship with Noelle would lead to a Bad End despite her limited knowledge on the second Otome game, and she was able to easily deduce Noelle's and Louise's attraction towards Leon. Her time in the Alzer Republic has also shown her being more friendly and not as selfish, if not also a bit submissive to those around her. This probably stems from her now reestablished close bond with Leon as siblings from a previous life. Marie has demonstrated a fair amount of confidence and cares such as when she rescued Carla and her concern over Noelle. Ever since she have been reunited with her brother, she has taken on a role of support/sidekick and information gathering about the otome game series. In the side spin-off series, more of her past is known showing her spoiled, abused and regretful personality up until her rebirth, despite coming off as a devious person, she truly wishes to find happiness no matter what. Story Overview Previous Life Marie was originally a girl with an overall normal life. From a young age, she was talented, pretty and cute, and the only person who would ever be rude to her was her older brother, who she looked up to and was dependent on. She would often get him to do things for her, having confidence that he could do things that she couldn't, but would normally come off as bratty and spoiled. At one point, she took an interest in the yaoi genre and hid her materials in her brother's room. When her mom discovered them, she lied that they were her brother's and he ended up having to move out. At a later point, she made her brother complete an otome game she was having trouble with, while she went on a trip to the beach using the money her parents had given her for a certificate and even sent him some pictures of her trip to taunt him. Her brother, however, sent the pictures to their parents before dying due to a combination of exhaustion (from playing the game for 2 days straight) and falling down the stairs. It was at that point where her life took a turn for the worst. When she came home after her trip, her parents slapped her for lying to them and taking their money. She went back and played the otome game, but since the game was already completed, all she could do was look at the cut-scenes and CGs to try and piece together the story. At her brother's funeral, she and her family figured out that she, by making her brother play that game, was indirectly responsible for his death and she was quickly kicked out of the house. After she was exposed, Marie didn't hate her brother. Instead, she was devastated that he had died due to her selfish actions, and the fact that she can no longer be spoiled/protected. In order to make a living, she took a job in "night-time entertainment" to make ends meet, she went on to have several boyfriends, one of which was a gambling addict who left her with a hatred of gambling, and another who would always ask her for money. She eventually got married and had a daughter, but her husband abandoned them and custody of her daughter was given to her parents. She was later killed by her abusive boyfriend. New Life She was then reincarnated as Marie Fou Lafan. Despite being a Viscount rank household, the Lafan Household was struggling financially and in crushing debt. As a result, Marie grew up with very little money, abusive parents, and uncaring siblings. Realizing that she was in an otome game she once played long ago, Marie made it her mission to take Olivia's place and be recognized as a saint. She would practice her healing magic every chance she could get away from her family, waiting for the day when she could enroll in the academy and meet the prince and his entourage.
