Character Analysis: Rin Yamaoka/The Spirit


 Rin Yamaoka, or The Spirit, is a frightening killer in skill and appearance. She carries her family's katana as her main weapon, and she has the ability to teleport, going invisible for several seconds before popping back up to scare survivors working on generators.

Her Perks include the following: Spirit Fury, which breaks a pallet instantly when one is thrown on her if she has destroyed at least 2 herself, Hex: Haunted Ground, which spawns in two totems, and when one has been cleansed, all survivors locations are revealed to Rin. Finally, Rancor causes a Survivor to become Rin's obsession for the match, and every time a generator is completed, the Obsession themselves are revealed to Rin for a couple seconds. When all generators have been completed, the Obsession's aura is permanently revealed to Rin for the rest of the match, and she is granted the ability to kill the Obsession by her own hand.

Rin Yamaoka had a rough upbringing, with her private education and her mother becoming ill weighing heavily on the family financially. Rin, along with her parents, worked several jobs just to keep the lights on, and it was okay for a while. They all loved each other, and it didn't seem like things would get worse.

...Until they did. Her father was fired from his decently paying job, and late one night when Rin came home from entertaining some guests who had lingered at the place she worked, she found her mother, mangled horribly, and already dead. Suddenly, Rin was attacked by who she originally thought was an intruder, but turned out to be her own father, who continously attacked Rin, as though he were possessed, until she was on the brink of death. As she lay dying, in shattered glass, her father steadily approaching, she was promised a second chance. A chance to get revenge on her father, and she made a vow. She couldn't let her father get away with what he'd done to her, and especially not to her mother.
