The shine of the moon, the love of the stars...
I will gather that outpouring of light, now, and send it to your heart!
Head of the 99th class, Maya Tendou!
Tonight, I will show you my brilliance!
Introduction
She is a second-year student from the Actor Training Department at Seisho Music Academy's 99th Graduating Class, as well as head of the class.
Practically born for the theater world, with a renowned stage actor and a prima donna for parents. Blessed with a good physique and a carrying voice, she refuses to rest on her laurels and always strives to reach greater heights. Many call her "Maya-sama".
Appearance
Maya has thigh-length straight brown hair that is generally styled in a half ponytail, bangs swept on the right side where it exposes her forehead on the left side, two strands of hair that go just below her shoulders are left out of her updo that frames her face, blunt ends at the bottom, she always ties her hair with a deep-periwinkle-colored ribbon and she also wears two crossed pairs of barrettes on the left side of her bangs and royal purple eyes.
Personality
Maya is a very reserved person, though she isn't without her quirks. While serious and focused on her goals, she isn't one to deny hanging out with her classmates. She always wants to learn new things, not giving up on a subject until she can fully comprehend it. Described as a genius, she is talented in many aspects in regards to theater, but never rests on her former glories, aiming to rise higher. On the stage, she only has winning on her mind, and won't stray from pointing out the flaws of her opponents mid-fight, notably Karen Aijou's arrogance during the Revue of Pride.
Maya appreciates people who work hard to overcome her, personified by her praise for Claudine Saijou. She is the only one Maya bothers to bring up as an example of people worthy of battling her as Claudine had put just as much effort into reaching to be top star as she has. Maya is noted to have a big appetite, often eating as much as possible. To this end, Claudine had figured out that she was secretly dieting in a small interaction in the video game, and proceeded to assure Maya that she is just fine "exactly the way she is".
In the stage play, Maya's personality is drastically different from that of her anime counterpart. She's more self-centered as she isn't as close to her classmates, only bothering to talk to Claudine Saijo if she isn't boasting about her achievements. She responds easily to the theme of the stage and follows it no matter where it leads, to the point of stabbing Claudine in hysteria.
Background
Born to parents who were themselves thoroughbreds, Maya's life has always been about position zero. Even in her childhood, her parents had taught her to take no breaks (or at least take as few as possible), and everything else Maya knows now as she takes the spot at the center of the stage. Consequently, Maya grew up feeling ignored if she is not in the limelight, that her only proof of existing is when she's performing.
