Aria Roscent

After Aria’s mother Carin Roscente married Count Roscente, Aria became the stepsister of Cain Roscente and Mielle Roscente. Having received a second chance in life, she begins to develop various schemes to get ahead of Mielle, as well as humiliate her and destroy her reputation in ways that parallel Aria’s downfall in the original line of events. Having been quite frank and spoiled after her initial rise in social standing (among other things, refusing to eat vegetables, deeming them commoner food she had more than enough of), Aria now learns to put on a mask and behave in more efficacious ways with regards to her public image.

In doing so, Aria makes various allies, who lead her to experience sincere kindness and affection for the first time in her life. She also catches the attention of Asterope Franz, who respects her due to her sharp intellect and hopes to recruit her as one of his advisors, forming quite a close relationship with him. She remarks herself that she might not have become such a sinister individual had she received such warm and welcoming treatment in her original life. Nevertheless, Aria remains determined to pay back Mielle and does not even consider abandoning her desire for revenge.

Aria is quite intelligent and a fast learner, mastering subjects she had not had any training in in her previous life rather quickly and setting up elaborate schemes to not only destroy her stepsister on a personal and social level, but ruin her in the most humiliating way possible. She is able to turn back time using her hourglass around five minutes every day, though doing so exhausts her severely; she makes use of this power frequently to get out of dangerous situations and put herself in a favorable position with other people.
