Higashi is a famous violinist who is known for his music bringing the listeners to tears. Pulling emotional responses from even the most stoic of people. He hates it. He never wanted to pursue music but his parents pushed it on him and he feels guilty because they moved from Japan to the US for him to continue his career.

His only solace is spending his free time playing a highly immersive fantasy RPG game, Elysian Realms. His persona, Porter, is a strong knight who has all the traits Higashi wishes he had. Porter is strong, brave, outgoing and loved by many. He’s high ranked in his fighter class while slowly raising his magical skills as a secondary class. Higashi is careful to keep his real identity hidden and only plays with people he doesn’t know in real life.
