Rae Taylor died from overwork in her original world—her real last name was Oohashi before she took on "Taylor" after being mysteriously transported into Revolution, her favorite otome game. The irony isn't lost on fans: she ends up living as the game's protagonist.
What makes Rae's situation unique is that she wasn't just a casual player. She'd spent years writing fan fiction about Revolution's world and characters, so when she suddenly found herself actually *in* the game, she had an absurd advantage—she knew the lore, the mechanics, and everyone's backstories better than she probably should've.
The catch? Her favorite character, Claire François, is absolutely relentless in harassing her from day one. Rae responds by doing what many fans think she should've done all along: completely ignoring the game's intended romance route with the prince and instead pursuing Claire with full intensity. She's openly lesbian and makes zero effort to hide it, which plays into some fun moments where the game's plot just. doesn't account for what she's actually doing.
Rae's got serious magical chops too. She can command two of the four available elements in Revolution's magic system, and she's reached the highest possible aptitude rank in both. That kind of power, combined with her insider knowledge of how the world works, makes her a pretty formidable presence—even if she's mostly using it to get Claire's attention.
