Character: Yoshino Harusawa (Haru)
Series: Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor
Character Age: 20
Canon: Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor is the newest game in the Shin Megami Tensei franchise and, as you'd expect, it involves surviving. To be specific, it involves surviving a demon invasion, diffusing riots and trying to successfully recruit party members by choosing between minutely different dialogue options all while in a practically airtight lockdown in Tokyo.
However, try as you might, you'll never recruit Yoshino Harusawa. Haru, as most call her, is an up-and-coming indie singer, formerly of the band D-Va. Raised by her grandmother after the death of her parents and then lost in the fight over inheritance when the grandmother died, Haru is no stranger to adversity and depression. For a period in her life she was almost suicidally reckless, however, meeting Aya changed all that when, for lack of a less corny way to put it, Aya gave her music. But in the game, Aya is gone, disappeared six months ago, and Haru is depressed again, blaming herself for the appearance of demons in Tokyo. Over the course of the game she develops a close friendship with the main character. Haru is often sarcastic, but never outright mean, and she seems to genuinely appreciate her fans.
*Note for the timeline! Haru is being taken from before the end of Day 6, assuming that the player is taking Gin/Haru's path.

Heh. Didn't ever think I'd be playing at a kids summer camp, of all places. Still, you play the gig, no matter where it takes you, even if it's somewhere like this. Aya always said it'd be great to go on an overseas tour, but I'm not really sure this is really what she meant. First thing, the crowd's enthusiastic, don't get me wrong, but I have a hard time believing that this is your average group of campers. Not complaining, though. If they want to listen, I want to play. Though I'm not too crazy about the endless afterparty that Sayre lady mentioned...
Great, the show hasn't even started and the mosh pit is already getting crazy. Hey! You in the back! Yeah, what's your name- Marcy? Well just because you've got all those tentacles to throw around doesn't mean you can push everybody else out of the way. Gorillas have to get their music somewhere, you know? Yeah, yeah, I've heard all it before, you can't see the stage, you can't hear the tunes. Still not hearing any good reason to push anybody around. And there is no way you can't see the stage. You're about five feet above everyone else.
-Man, the security at this place is nonexistant. You'd think they'd want to have people watching the place, what with giant tentacley monsters fighting with gorillas all over the place. And me? I'm just trying to put on a good show for everybody. Heh, Aya, I always wish I was more like you when stuff like this happens. You could always sort things out. Bet these things would freak you out, though. Guess I've just seen it all before, huh?
Time to play already? That's what I get for talking to myself instead of paying attention, haha. Yeah, thanks for telling me, Mog. No, I don't want to save before the concert. No, I don't think I might have to reset and play it over again... What does that even mean? Mog, you're a real help most of the time, despite being the weirdest looking roadie I've ever met, but drop the whole "saving" thing. I still don't even get what you mean by it, anyway.
