Gartland, Jessie

ジェジー・ガートラント

Hailing from the U.S.A., Jessie is the most talented athlete of the terrestrial nation. Born and raised in an American ghetto, she was forced to care for her younger brother alone after both parents died. Jessie lived in poverty until her younger sister passed away from an incurable disease. Following that tragedy, a black priest at a local church took her in and nurtured her running skills, which she had previously relied on to escape pursuers after stealing to survive. With the priest's help and after meeting Tome Midou, Jessie began dedicating herself to athletics with the goal of becoming a Cosmo Beauty. She harbors strong resentment toward Akari, whom she considers too weak and unworthy of being the daughter of her idol. She also feels an innate, sporty rivalry toward Ayla Roznovsky.
