Personality

Rebecca is focused on fulfilling her duty of protecting the Mindhacker as the head of HOTFIX. Despite her intimidating appearance, she is a kind-hearted person and can't leave someone in distress. Never doubting others or looking after herself, she puts others' well-being above all else. Captain has the ability to unintentionally charm others, and is often regarded as a superhuman, charismatic person.

Captain has a close friendship with Doctor that seems to go way back. She has a habit of sharing her life experiences or wisdom with them, like talking about her recent travels. Additionally, Rebecca sometimes nudges the unwilling Mindhacker to do their work diligently, though because of her kind personality she ends up doing some of the work herself. In her own words, she used to be much more depressed in the past, but Doctor was the one who helped her become the person she is today.

Trivia

  • According to Makiko Iwasaki, the game's translator, Captain views herself as nonbinary and uses she/they pronouns, but doesn't mind being called any pronoun. This had to be confirmed with the developers in the translation process, since English is more pronoun heavy than Japanese[1].
  • As of now, the two characters who used they/them pronouns for Rebecca are Doctor and Unid[2].
  • Her favorite food is bitter chocolate and tonkatsu. Her disliked food are vegetables that get caught between teeth[3].
  • Rebecca is bad at detailed work, such as counting small change[3]. Despite that, she still tries her best doing it, like when she has to do office work.[4]
  • She has a hard time falling asleep because she keeps thinking about things like the little verbal slip-ups she made during the day[5]. Her morning routine involves doing equipment maintenance while watching morning news[4].
