Sayuri speaks in measured words, carefully guarded, and at times elusive—like a person always three paces ahead. She's polite to the point of not raising eyebrows, yet there's an aura of distance. She's willing to lend a hand without asking for reciprocity, and when things go awry, she's usually already looking for a way out. Sayuri exists in that place between friend and stranger, never showing too much, and always observing.

Sayuri grew up in a family full of secrets and lies. Because her parents were estranged and frequently absent, she was left to fend for herself. As a result, she developed a strong sense of independence and an insatiable desire to learn the truth. As a result of her quest for the truth, she discovered that people were not always what they seemed to be and frequently had hidden intentions. As a result of this realization, she became skeptical and wary, always keeping people at a distance.

The ideal tone for Sayuri's vocal should be around an alto feminine voice.
