[edit] Biography
BlackRose is a female Heavy Blade and the first character that Kite meets in the game The World after Orca . When they meet she yells at Kite for no particular reason and runs off to come back shortly. She explains that she wishes to go on an adventure with him. Soon after they arrive at an area that BlackRose told Kite about called "Hidden Forbidden Holy Ground" in Delta server. She then explains that she is new to The World despite the way she acted earlier. They get attacked by a monster that cannot be defeated by a normal character.
Kite gets his Bracelet after this incident. However with BlackRose following Kite around, she gets constantly watched by the administrators of The World.
It turns out that "Δ Hidden Forbidden Holy Ground" was where her younger brother, Kazu (Fumikazu in real life), was attacked by a Data bug, rendering him unconscious and in a coma in the real world, similar to Kite's friend Orca. She and Kite decided to work together, in hopes of finding a way to cure their loved ones as well as discovering the mystery of The World.
Later on in .hack//Legend of the Twilight, Rena gains a super deformed version of BlackRose's avatar, which is ironic considering Rena and BlackRose knew each other in real life but never knew of each other's online identity.
In addition to this, she was depicted in .hack//Gift as wielding a tennis racket, which is appropriate giving her real life alter-ego's penchant for playing the sport.
The novel series, .hack//Another Birth, is a retelling of the .hack games from BlackRose's point of view. During the novel, some aspects are changed around. An example of this is when Kite lectures BlackRose on not staring in The World since it is rude. This actually happens the other way around on the video game version.
Akira, the player of BlackRose, is a member of the tennis team at her high school. She is a first string player. Her father is also a gym teacher.
She also later on admits that she has grown feelings for Kite
