'''Rei Ryghts''', known as '''Rei Kiseijou''' (キセイジョウ・レイ, Kiseijou Rei) in the Japanese version, is the [[Console Patron Unit]] (CPU) of the fallen nation once known as [[Tari]] in the [[Gamindustri/Ultra Dimension|Ultra Dimension's Gamindustri]]. She represents the [[wikipedia:Atari 2600|Atari 2600]]. Her personality undergoes an extreme change between her human and goddess forms, going from a meek, apologetic, and fearful woman to a megalomaniacal despot.
==Appearance==
 
===Human Form===
 
In her human form, Rei has long heather blue hair and blue-green eyes that are accompanied by thin framed glasses. She wears a single hair accessory on the left side of her head which is has a triangular shape at the base that is black with white and blue in the center and has second part on top which is white accompanied with blue lining. Her attire consists of a primarily black business-woman-like suit with a skull right between where her torso ends and her legs start. On her arms she wear what appears to be two white gauntlets with blue lining and black skulls on the end. Her leg wear contains black tights and white knee high boots with black shoe laces and black bottoms with blue lining and skulls on the side.
 
===Goddess Form===
 
Rei's goddess form is reminiscent of her human form, having the same long heather blue hair but becomes slightly more sky-blue as it goes down. Her eyes are a bright diamond blue and the hair accessory that she wears on her head in human form becomes doubled, now appearing on both sides. Her glasses are gone and the general look of her outfit remains but in a bodysuit form, exposing her greatly enlarged chest, and the top some of her thighs, starting a little over where the torso begins and little over the middle of her thigh. The outfit itself is still primarily black and with white sections much like her previous form.
 
==Personality==
 
===Human Form===
 
Rei, in a word, is an absolute "pushover." She is very frail and has extreme confidence issues, not being able to make anyone listen to her and ends up being stepped all over as a result. She can indecisive and even easily scared when it seems like someone is upset with her. However, in the True End of Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory, Rei manages to learn how to use her more intimidating side to her advantage and manages to make people listen to her for a change (out of fear).
 
===Goddess Form===
 
When she transforms, the only word needed to describe her is "psycho." Rei becomes extremely irrational, unreasonable, and overbearing. In her human form, Rei makes a comment stating that whenever she gets a little power in her hands that she goes insane. Her goddess form is living proof of this statement due to her easily being the most powerful goddess in existence.
 
==Story==
 
===Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory===
 
Hyerdimension Neptunia Victory features two Rei's; one belonging to the [[Hyperdimension]] and one belonging to the Ultradimension. In the Hyperdimension, Rei strives towards convincing people that they do not need CPUs and that all they need are rules and proper guidelines. In the Ultradmension, Rei is the leader of the notorious group known as the Seven Sages, who wish to create a Gamindustri free from goddess rule.

During Neptune's stay in the Ultradimension, Rei does not do much outside of the events of when the Seven Sages kidnapped children to turn them into goddesses with the CPU Memory and using [[Peashy|Yellow Heart]] to form the nation known as Eden. It isn't until Eden's fall when Rei actively takes action and ends up revealing herself to be a goddess just as the rest of the CPUs after creating multiple clones of all of them and having them attack.
 
   
After she is defeated, she is taken back to [[Planeptune|Planeptune's]] [[Basilicom]] for questioning. It is then revealed that Rei used to be the CPU of Tari and that her tyrannical ways is what lead to its downfall.

The CPUs and Candidates fight her twice and are still unable to defeat her, nearly having to go for a round three until the Ultradimension Rei arrives and helps in taking away the dark power within the Hyperdimension Rei.
