Lady Arisa

Handmaiden-in-waiting to Lady Ambivilia of the Tides of Epic Conflict Saga, Lady Arisa has the dubious distinction of being the only non-buxom female character of note in the Saga. Like her mistress, she was a Air Elemenstor, and was similarly charming and persuasive. She had a Furniliar named Hondana, whose only appearance of note was an act of espionage against the sinister Lord Hopebane. Upon learning of Hopebane's evil plans, she seduced him and stole the Armor of Fullchesthood, which lead to his unfortunate demise. She is not mentioned after the crowning of Ambivilia as Hyacinth Empress, and so it is assumed she retired in luxury as suits her part in the defeat of Hopebane.

Interestingly, it is believed that through advanced Wind elemenstation (and, though it is extremely disputed, Heart elemenstation) Lady Arisa was able to implant the child the poisoned Lopae of Hopea was bearing in her own womb, which she then raised as her own, despite the obvious physical differences.

There is minor textual evidence that Arisa and Hondana may have had a sexual relationship--most notably when she, after seducing Hopebane, retired to her chambers to 'show off' her appearance in the Armor of Fullchesthood to Hondana.

She does not appear on the cover of any books, and non-Creak fanfics starring her are relatively few and far between, though, being one of the few obviously-Japanese characters (and a minor Furnie icon), she still has a small cult following.
