Her rather affectionate younger brother called her Rinny while he was growing up, but call her that and you might suddenly find yourself with a black eye. AGE: 22 GENDER: Female SEXUALITY: Heterosexual PLAYBY: Rise Kujikawa ~ Persona 4 PERSONALITY INFORMATION POSITIVE: Corrine is a very outgoing person, she loves being around and talking to people. While growing up she always tried to be the center of attention around the adults at parties, mostly by showing off her piano and vocal skills. Obviously at five years of age the young Corrine was politely put up with before being sent off to her room. Speaking of which, Corri is a very musical person as well, having honed a talent for both playing the piano and singing. It was her dream to eventually go into music, but recent events have made her put that dream on the back burner. The woman is very nurturing as well, wanting to help everyone. She will give advice, help you with labor, and even physically assault someone if there is a need. The latter she will probably do without your consent, but she is a fiercely loyal friend and will do everything in her power to defend your honor should the need arise. Corrine is also a very determined person who will stop at nothing once she sets her mind to it, some have compared her determination to that of a bull in a china shop. However, she prefers to compare it to a quite and slow burning fire. Corri doesn't always look at the reality in the front of her. The woman also likes to use sarcasm whenever she has the opportunity though and will not hesitate to make fun of you, it's all of love though. This is a woman who is not one to turn down any challenge or opportunity, her habit of taking of any dare has gotten her into a little more trouble than necessary. She sees this as a positive aspect of her personality, while others (like her mother) aren't in agreement. NEGATIVE: The woman has a bit of a violent streak, lashing of with her fists first and then her words. Thankfully, this has languished a bit over the years (and after a few runs in with the local enforcement) but get her angry enough and you will find yourself in the receiving end of her fist. Corrine also has a temper, especially when in an argument which she does like to be in. Her stubborn streak also doesn't help as she must win at all costs, even when she is wrong. Unless you can prove your point well, and rather quickly in some cases, Corri will not back down from the fight no matter how public or private. The woman has also had drinking problems in the past, turning the bottle as a way to cope after the sudden death of her then fiance. She is now trying to avoid drinking as much as she can. While Corrine makes friends whenever she goes, she hasn't forged deep friendships in a long while. In the past few years she has taken to closing herself off and running away from any sign of a deeper relationship. She realizes this and wants to change, perhaps this new home where every look isn't full of pity will help that.

She was the middle sibling,born between two brothers. Victor, only two years older than her and Christopher who would be born three years later. With the rather small age gap, the siblings grew up very close. Corrine honestly had a rather normal childhood, her father worked in the city and her mother was a teacher on the island and she always had her brothers to play with. She grew up happy, healthy, a little social butterfly, sometimes a rather violent child, and a young girl with an interest in music. Corrine began taking piano lessons at age five and loved every minute of it. She has continued with her playing and singing throughout her entire life and even composes her own pieces. When she was about sixteen, Corri and a group of her friends went out to play a game of baseball. Corrine was up to bat and hit the ball, but instead of landing in someone's glove...it hit someone in the face. That someone turned out to be Henry James, the woman's first boyfriend and the man who would come to be her fiance right after high school. He proposed the night before graduation and the two were planning to be married a year later in a simple ceremony. They thought they were the happiest couple in the world. This all changed one stormy afternoon. Henry went out fishing with some of his friends and promised her he would be back to spend the night with her, he didn't come back though. There had been an accident out at sea and Henry had drowned before anyone could save him. Corrine lost all sense of feeling and emotion after the death of her fiance. The woman turned away from music for a while and instead turned to the bottle for comfort, and became another person entirely. Most of her friends pulled away from her as she slowly spiraled downward in alcoholism. She was in denial about her fiance's death and about her emotional state, until she almost killed herself. One night Corrine just kept drinking and drinking and passed out. Her brothers had planned to come over to see how she was and found her on the couch, after calling for help and making her realize how much they had scared her, Corrine admitted she needed to get help. After about a year or so of treatment, Corrine decided the best fix would be to get away from her home, away from the memories and away from the temptation. Her parents were not convinced it would be the best idea, but there was little they could do about it, seeing as Victor and Christopher were on her side as well. Thus, Corri packed what few belongings she considered precious and made her way to Pastora Valley.
