Welcome to the world of Daring Academy!
After high school, the player moves into a new apartment in the city of Olis with their best friend Amelia Sweet to attend college at Sacred Heart Academy. Meet Lily Cortez, Rose Wheatley, Elizabeth Robinson and Clementine Neonica, create trust, relationships, explore the deepest parts of Olis, collect clues and tons more in this semester filled with craziness.
Amelia Sweet
A young 18-year-old girl and the main character's best friend. Amelia Sweet tries to stay by their side to help with any issues or pain they may have, and 10 years later, their friendship is still as strong as ever. Amelia is often shown as a sweet and caring person, but is often reserved as she doesn't wanna show her emotions to other people. She often spends her time alone, and talks to other people other than just her best friend.
Lily Cortez
She might have issues that she doesn't want to reveal to anyone, Lily Cortez, a 17-year-old girl, has been raised to be a sweet girl. Even though she is often shown as a shy person, and is often reserved as she doesn't wanna show her emotions to other people, she often spends her time alone, dealing with her weaknesses due to her mother's death.
Rose Wheatley
"The Aperture Science Enrichment Center promises to always provide a safe testing environment." is what Rose Wheatley, a 19-year-old girl, always thinks whenever at home with Iris Wheatley, her sister, and her parents. A Portal 2 lover to the core. While Rose is generally an outgoing and active person, she usually spends most of her time with her best friend, Lily Cortez, to overcome Lily's depression due to her mother's death.
Elizabeth Robinson
"And though I know, since you've awakened her again. She depends on you, she depends on you." While she is a fan of Porter Robinson, Elizabeth Robinson, an 18-year-old girl, is often told she is an angel, she's usually sweet, caring and passionate about others but if she's in a debate, she will push it beyond her limits, trying every inch to win it.
Clementine Neonica
VANISHMENT THIS WORLD! If you feel weird about her behavior, it's common with Clementine Neonica, an 18-year-old girl. She is a chūnibyō, constantly living out her fantasies and exhibiting strange behaviors as a result. She's very open about them, and she claims that she has "Fast Movement" and "Hard Light Construct", and a crystal which "traps light in order to use her powers at night". Though she does her best to commit to her fantasies, she can break character, such as when she feels embarrassed or flustered.
This game covers sensitive topics which some players may find upsetting. Please see in-game for more details.
