Rose Oriana

Rosa Oriana (ローズ・オリアナ) is a noble Princess from the Oriana kingdom, a country of arts. She is known for being a genius in arts in her kingdom. However, she came to Midgar Royal Spellsword Academy in order to learn swordsmanship. In the Oriana Kingdom, the sword is scorned as something uncivilized. Not a single person would acknowledge the sword as a form of art.

Appearance
Rose has bright, yellow eyes and long blonde hair that formed into drill-like curls. She has an ample bosom.

Personality
Rose has shown to be cool, strong, selfless and charismatic. All qualities befitting for someone born of royalty and a swordswoman. She has a strong sense of honor, willing to stand up for those who are unable to.

She is a good friend to Alexia and Miss Natsume and is optimistic that the two can get along. As a woman, Rose is completely head over heels for Cid after he saved her from a terrorist and honestly wants to have a relationship with him. She is one of the only few people who saw how strong he can be. Even after being inducted into Shadow Garden, her feelings for him didn't change.

Rose views swordsmanship more than a hobby but an art form with wondrous potential.

Background
Rose is the eldest daughter of Raffaello Oriana. When she was a child, Rose accompanied her family to the Kingdom of Midgar. She somehow escaped her escorts and head out to explore. Then, bandits found her and decided to ransom her once they realized her value.

Before they could take action, Cid who went by the name the Stylish Bandit Slayer came and killed them, saving Rose in the process. Rose witnesses the fight and was completely enamored by the sight of Cid's sword. This lead to her passion for swordsmanship.

When she became a teenager, she entered an exchange student program to Midgar Spellsword Academy. There, she became a powerful swordswoman and Student Council President.

The Midgar Royal Spellsword Academy Terrorist Attack
Rose entered the Senbatsu tournament where she encounered Cid Kagenou. The two fought and eventhough she was vastly superior, Rose is impressed on her opponent's will power. In the end, Rose won but the event has left her developing respect for Cid.

Following the conclusion of the tournament, the kingdom was attacked by impostor members of Shadow Garden. Rose attempted to defend herself but is shocked to learn that her magic is gone. Just as she was about to be killed, Cid stepped in to protect her.

She tried to stop it but was forced to escape after it failed.

She manages to reach the underground tunnels where Shadow appears to her, asking if she wants power. Determined to save her kingdom, Rose accepted his proposal and she uses her newfound powers to take out Doem's men and Alexia who came to bring her in. After reaching the God of War Tournament, Rose assassinates her father, Raffaello, ensuring that her kingdom will not fall into the Order of Diabolos.

Cid Kagenou
When she battled him for the first time she started having deep respect for him for not giving up during their battle with all the injuries he had (although they were fake), but during the terrorist attack she cried after cid's (fake) death when he tried to protect her from the terrorist's attack and after the attack was over and she knew that he was still alive she went straight ahead and hugged him. This event made her start harboring romantic feelings for him.
