Karasuma Fran (
Appearance
Fran is described as a small girl in pajamas with surgical scars on her neck, apparently together with an implant.[3][4][5][6] She has purple eyes and has black hair in a bob-cut with a frontal fringe.[7][6][8] She wears a pink pajama hoodie with baggy sleeves,[9] purple lining, carrot-shaped toggles and a Bunny Grey logo on the back, as well as a headband with antennae positioned to resemble rabbit ears and a round rabbit tail antenna on her bottom.[9][10][7][8] During the heat wave, she wears a white bikini with a Bunny Grey design on the left breast and purple sandals.[6][8]
Fran carries a round, dark grey backpack which is full of radios and other electronic equipment, with various antennae sticking out of it.[5][6] A name tag is attached to it with her given name written in hiragana.[6] She is frequently seen holding a giant UFO balloon which she uses to float around.[3][4][5] The balloon has 'ABDUCTION' written in light purple letters along the rim, and a Bunny Grey logo on the top side.[9][8]
Personality
Not much is known about Fran's personality, but it can be assumed that she possesses at least some of the traits common to the members of the Kamisato Faction.
She has a love for the British mascot, Bunny Grey.[11][2]
Background
According to Kamisato Kakeru, Fran was supposedly made into a Gemstone via an implant from a UFO, though he isn't sure how much of that is true, and the rest of the Kamisato Faction are split over whether she really was abducted or not.[1][4] This is later revealed to be false, with Fran actually being a Magician and spy of the Anglican Church.[2][12]
At some point, Fran came into contact with Kakeru and ended up joining the Kamisato Faction, in order to manipulate them for Laura Stuart.[12]
Chronology
World Rejecter Arc
- Main article: World Rejecter Arc
Fran was present together with other members of the Kamisato Faction during Kakeru's attempted negotiations with Kamijou Touma.[3] Around the time that the rest of the Kamisato Faction were attacking the Kamijou Residence, Fran was researching Sample Shoggoth together with Ellen.[1]
Salome Arc
- Main article: Salome Arc
On December 4th, Fran alerted the other members of the Kamisato Faction to the arrival of Salome in Academy City.[4] The next day, she was present when Kakeru betrayed Touma and set the Kamisato Faction on him, intending to kill him to make Salome stop.[5] They were thwarted when Salome herself interrupted them, bringing a provoked Accelerator with her.[13] Later that night, when Kihara Yuiitsu stole the World Rejecter, Fran and the other Kamisato Faction girls offered their weapons to Salome to increase her power to fight Yuiitsu.[14]

Abilities
Fran claimed to be a Gemstone,[1] however she is actually a Magician.[2] She has an extensive knowledge pertaining to astronomy and radio waves, and is part of the front line of the Kamisato Faction’s information warfare team, together with Ellen.[4]
Bunny Grey Messenger
The Bunny Grey Messenger (ウサギグレイメッセンジャー Usagi Gurei Messenjā?) is Fran's high power microwave galactic communication space station. About 360 meters long, it was intended to speak to a certain unseen individual for 100 years and a piece of fanart dedicated to Bunny Grey.[15] The station's output is enough to flood Academy City in microwaves and create an abnormal heat wave, with temperatures exceeding 55 degrees in December.[16][17][6] The microwaves can also be focused to incinerate targets on the surface.[18] Fran is capable of remotely operating the station.[18][15]
