The Lost Princess
Rachel is introduced at the bar she's working at being aggressively interrogated by the Jumi knight Elazul. She can't utter a single word to answer his questions, making him even angrier. Should the protagonist asks what happened, ask about the friend, and help him find her, he will be grateful and leave the poor girl in peace.

Rachel
One day, Mark asks his daughter Rachel if she'd like to come with him for a hike in the mountains. She replies he could take her mom instead while she tends the shop, but her father laughs it off, saying she should not be worrying about the boutique.
At the town's marketplace, the main characters hears Jennifer, Mark's wife, complaining about him being always with her daughter. She told him to cut it off, but he did not listen. Back at Mark's place, he tells the hero he tought Rachel was with them and wonders where she went. Downstairs, Teapo reveals that Mark's dream is to hop on a rocket ship and explore outer space. According to her, Rachel is sick of him. Meanwhile, the father has found a note from his daughter telling her family she's gone for a while and to not worry about her. Mark asks the hero what to do, fearing she has run away.
The protagonist returns from the Academy of Magic as Teapo suggested they look for Rachel there. She came back during that time and her dad tells her they can replace Teapo with a newer model if it's magic she wants. The daughter replies that even though she's a Model 1, it was well recieved in Geo and think it's more about how you use it that counts, which puzzles her father.
Jennifer claims her husband is still acting strange even though her daughter came back. Apparently, a blue jelly speaks back to him when he closes his eyes. He swears that she is an impostor, which drives Jennifer at her wit's end. Back at the house, Mark tells her daughter he's glad she cheered up, but asks her is she's really Rachel. The girl replies that what's they named her, so they're should not be any concerns to have about. Mark still insists he's not convinced, and Rachel hammers down she is. He remembers he's got something to tell her, and make her promise not to laugh about it. He tells her about the blue jelly of his dreams calling itself Rachel, and that the Rachel in their house is none other than a green wiggly. The young girl reveals it must be a telepathic message from their daughter, as she and them traded bodies at the Academy of Magic. Jennifer faints and Mark exclames that he knew he wasn't his daughter, but the creature calls him an idiot for not knowing anything about her. Teapo comes upstairs and reveals that Rachel bought gunpower with the money she earned as she wanted to blow this whole house up, including him. However, upon closer inspection from Jennifer, it appears that the gunpowder and star map where purchased to make a spaceship. Jennifer scolds her husband for not remembering about the space rocket him and Rachel planned in her childhood. The whole room then hears a distant echo who is revealed to be Rachel. She tells her father to close her eyes and listen to her. Mark never noticed her for who she was, but now they are far apart and can communicate. There is no more Rachel as she is a blue jiggly now, but she might come back again and he could give her a new name. The voice disappears and the fake Rachel is now part of the family like all this never happened.

Personality
Coming across as a shy, reserved, and taciturn individual, Rachel, at first glance, appears to be a character who is easily overlooked; her interactions with Elazul at the beginning of the game see her being easily bullied into silence, never once speaking up to defend herself from his verbal assault.
More dimensions to Rachel's character are derived from both interacting with her person and her family members. It is through these that one discovers that she, although evidently cohabiting with a father who loves her dearly, is being showered with the wrong brand of love; despite being a teenager and close to becoming an adult, she is still treated as a child by her father. She is thus rightfully indignant and frustrated; speaking to her in her room see her sarcastically urging the Hero/Heroine not to laugh at the childish decor of her room, as "[her] father picked it all out".
In spite of this, Rachel does not hate her father; on the contrary, she still loves him very much, albeit rather sadly due to his ineptness in understanding her needs. This is proven in the eponymous Rachel quest, where it is revealed that Rachel has modified the resident Teapo into a spaceship, presumably to fulfill Mark's childhood dream of traveling to space.
