Red Lotus (Chen Leung)

Red Lotus is a student at the Academy with Jet, Iridium, and Frostbite. In his third year, he is partnered with Frostbite. Some time between their third and fourth year, Red Lotus and Frostbite start dating in secret, as Corp-Co actively discourages LGBT+ relationships. In his fourth year, concerned his being gay would sabotage his chance to earn sponsorships after graduation, he reveals the relationship to the Academy, betraying Frostbite. As a result, both Red Lotus and Frostbite are sent to the Mental wing for Therapy.
