Overview

Irene is the protagonist of The Looking Glass.

Full Name: Irene Bennett
Height: 5’2” (157 cm)
Occupation: Student at Ashvale Heritage Preparatory School
Family: Harold and Silvia Bennett
Friends: Vincent Rippel, McKaylie Breckenridge, Anne Burke, John Gosse^[1]

Appearance

Irene has short black hair and brown eyes. She wears a grey-purple patterned dress, black leggings and grey shoes. While at school she wears her uniform; a red blouse and a black skirt with a black tie.

Before version 0.04, Irene's sprite was more akin to Madotsuki's, also having her eyes closed.

Irene with no effect equipped.
Irene in ver.0.03.

Personality

Unlike other fangame characters, which use the other world as a tool to explore their mind through various motifs, the player learns about Irene's personality through her many humorous observations and musings about the world around her.

Observing her many remarks in game she is a rather clever individual, occasionally making witty remarks when you investigate objects or talk to certain NPCs. How she treats her classmates however depends on the choices the player makes when given the option.

This interaction was implemented around version 0.05, notably her interactions with most of the denizens in the mirror world are not as complex, save for one or two like Faceless.

Past

Up until the events of the game she lived a pretty normal life, that was until she discovered that she could enter another world through the mirror in her room.
