[appearance & outfit ref]
with almost hip-length golden hair and big, green eyes, roll looks more like an idol than a gamer. she's tall and slender, thanks to spending so much time running around both on and offline, however her chest isn't quite as impressive as she might like, so it's not all sunshine and rainbows. when it comes to outfits, roll's not exactly modest with her clothing choices ("it's an rpg, dude!" she claims, "you gotta show some skin or the fans'll just tune out!") wearing such classy ensembles like short-shorts and a custom bustier. of course, you gotta have the thigh-high stockings and the knee-high boots in there, fanservice is totes important.
although her clothes aren't exactly protective, they do allow for enhanced mobility, so it's not all bad, right?

sayaka looks almost exactly the same offline as she does on - and she damn well better, considering all that part-time job cash she blew on customisation - though there are subtle differences. her hair, for example, isn't quite as golden as roll's, leaning slightly closer to a honey shade, and thanks to her obsession with make-up, her eyelashes "irl" are both longer and thicker than roll's. however since they are fakes loaded up with mascara, that might not count as much of a difference.

« personality »
meet roll, the most obnoxiously cheerful valleygirl online. if you're looking for someone to slap you a little too hard on the back, then congratulate themselves for being so mature and sensitive towards your feelings, then roll is your girl! she's generally considered to not be the sharpest tool in the shed, though others have argued that behind her ridiculous personality hides a rather impressive intellect!
an intellect that she uses to be dangerously genre savvy (how anti-climactic...). being a massive geek for both japanese and american media, roll's the type of character who, apparently, really understands "the delicate heart of the tsuntsun" and isn't afraid to point out when someone's using a common media trope, even if it complete destroys the game's immersion. roleplaying isn't exactly roll's forte, but she tries (kinda).
embodying the very essence of the stereotypical ditzy blonde, it's not a surprise that so many players let their guards down around her - unfortunately, it's usually about that time roll beats 'em and loots 'em. so, does that mean her entire personality just an act? i dunno, and neither does roll. she's the type of gal who lives and acts in the moment, doing whatever is most immediately beneficial, regardless of where it sits on the morality scale, so it's difficult to classify her as being completely "good" or "evil". she's selfish, to be frank, though her selfishness can be beneficial to others, and roll isn't the type of person to do anything unforgivably evil like wiping out a village.
despite being a total newbie, roll's a cocky brat who often refers to herself in the third person as "the great roll~☆". she considers herself to be very near perfect and believes that everyone else should be eternally grateful for her time and attention. roll doesn't necessarily demand anything in return (except for loyalty and affection) but she doesn't exactly react well when someone isn't as thankful as she thinks they should be. ("dude, the great roll~☆ totally acknowledged you right now, y'know?! like, pay attention, kay!")
if you couldn't already tell, roll is the type of person who always goes for the easiest answer. if a door's in your way, she'll punch it down. big ol' dragon scaring your villagers? she'll punch it down. if there's a problem roll can solve with her fists, you better believe she'll solve it with her fists. that said, she's not necessarily a violent person, it's more that violence often happens to be the easiest way to get what she wants, and stuff like, y'know, problem solving, is just a pain in the ass.
one of her more out of place traits - which is saying something with this chick - is how unusually morbid she is for such a sunny girl. her idea of getting someone to listen to her is to casually break their legs (alternatively, severe the tendons in their ankles, depends on her mood, really) and sit on them while they scream. need a way to climb a mountain? roll will be there, suggesting that you temporarily enslave some npcs and make them carry you ("don't worry, serving me is totally a privilege!") it's hard to tell if she's joking or genuinely believes these are the most effective methods, and really, it's probably best not to ask.
offline, sayaka is more or less the same as roll. while she's just as selfish and seemingly empty-headed, she's more easily flustered and embarrassed in real life than online, since, in her words, "i've got actual, y'know, boobs! you could totally touch 'em and that'd suck! s-stay away from the great roll~☆'s boobs!" sayaka is also noticeably less arrogant, solely because she knows that, unlike online, she can't just punch her problems away. or she could, but that would lead to jail time, and she's too pretty for prison.

"alright, so, roll-"
"the great roll~☆!"
the volunteer tutorial gnome player paused, cocking an eyebrow and turning slightly to glance over his shoulder at the grinning blonde. when he'd signed up for this job, it'd been an easy way to make a few spare yrd; just show a few newbies around, explain the basics of the game, rinse and repeat his way to wealth. however, from the minute he saw roll rushing over, giddy and laughing like a kid at christmas despite being way too old for such excitement, he knew he'd chosen a bad day to sign in to alfheim online. regardless, he'd already taken her money, so there was no going back now unless he wanted her blabbing about him being a scam attist - and girls who looked like her, they always had plenty of people who'd listen to 'em.
"the... great roll, then."
"you totally forgot the ~☆!"
what the hell was she saying?! he'd missed what? there was nothing else to miss! the guide groaned and buried his face in his palms, wondering if it was too late to just give back the money and send the moron away. that is, if she'd even leave - he had the sneaking suspicion that she would insist on getting her moneys worth, even with a full refund. it was just what empty-headed clowns like 'the great roll~☆' did. probably. to be completely honest, mr. guide hadn't come across a player this... unique, before. he'd dealt with the bratty kids and punks with more swagger than brains, he'd even dealt with the middle aged ceos only playing to better understand those dang young people; but someone this oblivious? this was new. new and kinda scary.
steeling himself, he peeked out between his spread fingers, brow twitching when he noticed the blonde staring at him with that same dumb smile on her face. good god, she had no idea. she had no idea just how obnoxious she was, and for the next hour mr. guide had sold himself to her and, and-- he needed a drink. he really did.
"yooooo, the great roll~☆is totally ready to play, so start the tour before i die of boredom!" she yelled much too loudly. clearly, someone was lacking an inside voice, and the oncoming headache suddenly felt ten times worse. "ah, w-wait, wait, wait!! this is totally an introductory snippet, right?! why else would i be talking to some third tier extra?!" he could just kill her. really, it'd be easy enough, what with her being a complete newbie. just one little chop and boop, off comes her head and on comes the sweet, sweet silence. "the great roll~☆ will not talk to a nameless third tier character! they totes die first after the mains get to know them, it's super tragic!"
the guide reached down, grabbing the handle of his sword and pondering the consequences his potential actions may have. no jury would convict him, not if they heard the nonsense this stupid kid was spouting. hell, he'd probably be praised, get a bronze statue erected in thanks for scaring her off. yes... he'd so it. he'd get rid of roll before she could begin her reign of terror, he'd save alfheim online, he'd--
"see, i told you!" she pulled her pointer and middle left-hand fingers out of the guide's chest, puffing her cheeks out childishly as a squirt of blood narrowly missed her face. the gnome gasped, eyes wide as he stared down at the gaping hole in his breast, right over his heart. "nameless extras always get wiped out, y'know! like, approaching a main character was your downfall, big bro!" roll stood over him as he crumpled to the ground, utterly unfazed by the small pool of blood forming under her tour guide's body.
"ah, by the way, whatcha think of the 'big bro' thing, huh? totes moe, riiiight~☆?" he gurgled blood, and shook his head, narrowing his eyes as he felt his consciousness fading and the respawn window filling the screen. this was ridiculous, this was insane! nobody was actually stupid enough to attack a friendly player, not in a game where allies were so impossibly valuable. still, the hole in his chest was no joke, neither was the blonde prodding him and whining about how he wasn't 'encouraging her moe'. he grimaced and let his eyes shut, breathing a muffled sigh of relief as his game reset.
meanwhile, roll 'oooh'-ed as the man exploded into a flutter of pixels, and made sure to pick up every piece of yrd he'd left behind.
