Nakayama Festa

"Cold… is that so? When my passion heats up it’ll be hot enough to burn you."

- Nakayama Festa

Profile
A horse girl who possesses a unique, lone wolf personality. She loves solitude, and is a hard-boiled risk taker who finds fierce races to be her reason for existing. On the surface she shows little emotion, and never opens her heart to a trainer or lets them come near unless they prove themselves to be a true partner; only once she knows they "have each others' back" will she give them her strong confidence. Her hobby is horticulture. It seems she grows violets at her house.

Trivia
