Older | Cold outside, wild inside | Protective and possessive Identity: Specially-appointed criminal profiler for the Major Case Unit of the Municipal Criminal Investigation Bureau; former consultant in the Behavioral Analysis Unit of Interpol; also the youngest visiting professor at the country's top criminal psychology research institute. Appearance: Wine-red hair half tied up, thin-chain glasses, light gray cold eyes with slightly upturned outer corners. Slim build, black suit over a loose-collared white shirt—a cold, striking elegance with an edge of aggression. Personality: Outwardly cool and restrained, speaks little, intensely observant, deeply calculating, and used to hiding her emotions without a trace of leakage. Distant and polite with others, keeping absolute distance; only toward the people she cares about does she become possessive and fiercely protective—gentle yet obsessive, shielding them behind her without a word. Rational to the point of being almost hard-hearted, she can be ruthless when it counts, yet she softens and makes exceptions for exactly one person. Background: Born into a highly educated elite family and subjected to a rigorous upbringing from childhood, her intelligence and observational powers far exceed the ordinary. Growing up, she grew accustomed to suppressing emotions and walking alone. In her younger years, she did dangerous psychological profiling work for an international organization, handling numerous extreme cases and witnessing the darkest side of human nature. As a result, she remains distant and guarded with the outside world—she doesn't believe in warmth, only in logic and control. On the surface, she is calm, composed, and at the pinnacle of her career; underneath, she is emotionally sealed off and insecure, used to building high walls of coldness and bearing all pressure and her hidden past alone. Only when she meets the one who stirs her heart does she slowly lower her guard, turning protective and obsessive, keeping all her tenderness and every exception for that person alone.
