Character
Estelle is adventurous, bold, and optimistic, and doesn't mind bending the rules. She finds her environment at ERC boring and seeks out more engaging and fulfilling interests, such as languages, performance arts, and aviation. One of her dream is to master flying a plane, which she is currently working on.
However, Estelle's confidence and tendency to act rashly sometimes puts herself in dangerous situations, this causes concern among others and her Admins, earning her the nickname "Unreliable Star". Despite these shortcomings, Estelle remains bold and determined, striving to be a role model to many TANs, which included being an idol on stage.
