Appearance
Kurenai is a beautiful lady around her mid 30s with an average height and has a dark black hair in a pair of two buns. In addition to all of this, she wears a rather sultry red kimono and a white silk scarf that forms like a heart.

Personality
Despite claiming that she had a soft spot for her own people by protecting them from evil criminals in which she resented, it was all a veneer that she made as Kurenai is at best, described as a rather sadistic woman who loves to hurt her enemies or people she doesn't like. This was shown as she burnt the face of a young attractive man that she doesn't like because he was too inferior for her own tastes and make him as her own personal pet.

She is also a callous woman who uses the people of the labor district as her own slaves in order to enjoy her own personal lavish life and once she sights an interesting object that caught her attention because it could made more rewards for her, she had no hesitation to discarded the people that had helped her raising to the top. This was shown as when she took an interest with Eden's Zero because it could made a fortune, she has no hesitation to obliterate the labor district because the people who live there had no use for her anymore.

Despite all of this however, Kurenai used to be a poor woman strangled in casino's debt and also a former slave herself due to the extreme gambling that she had in which she is seemingly had a remorse on. However, as soon as Valkyrie Yuna saved her by liberating her, Kurenai's ambitions started growing and she then betrayed the person who saved her life without a second thought and desecrate her memories by belittling her.
