## Character

### Name

Lana's name has multiple meanings, including "rock" (from the Irish Gaelic name Alana), "light" (from the Russian name Svetlana), and "afloat; calm as still waters" (in Hawaiian).

### Appearance

Lana has short, layered bright blue hair and blue eyes. She wears three hair clips on the right side of her head; from top to bottom, they are: a pink bow, a yellow crown, and an ordinary pink clip.

She wears a loose medium blue T-shirt adorned with a rainbow over her right breast and a smiley face and bunny near the hem. She also wears a pair of black athletic shorts with white trim, mismatched thigh-high socks (the left being solid white and the right being white with pale blue stripes), and white and blue sneakers with thick soles. The fingernails on her left hand are each painted a different color. A pattern of multicolored stars is tattooed on her right wrist, and she wears a thin light blue bracelet around it as well. Finally, Lana wears a thin black choker and a pair of black headphones with bright blue accents around her neck; a long cord is attached to the latter.

## Story

### Lana

Regardless of fields and ages, Lana's name is common sense.

As Lana serves as a Guardian of Aquaris with her power of 'Übermensch', she gained her title of 'Lana the Indomitable'.

However Lana did not gain her title 'Lana the Indomitable' only by her powers as a Guardian. Her legendary performance as a Pro Player of Rhythm Game, especially the undefeatable play at the official tournament of 'KALPA' made people to go ape and granted her title of 'Indomitable'.

Despite games developed with advanced technology overwhelmed a game market, 'KALPA' has been loved by many by keeping their identity and originality of play style using keyboard. Lana stood as an undefeatable champion in this game for ages and no other players were able to stop her. Some people thought this unbelievable performance was possible due to her inhumane reflexes and control from her Guardian ability 'Übermensch'. However, the fact that she conquered the professional world of 'KALPA' before becoming a Guardian refuted their suspicion.

Being good at games was not the only reason why she was popular. Despite her enviable appearance, her professional attitude toward game and active communication with her fans as a gamer and broadcaster left many people no choice but to love her.

### Broadcaster

Lana has won!

That concentration she showed at the end was amazing!

When Lana made few mistakes in the mid-game, I really thought she would finally lose to Hong this time. But after that, the whole atmosphere has changed! She nailed the last song without making a single mistake! Hong didn't stand a chance.

Lana! Come here and share us your moment.

(Lana holding her hand with a V-shape to her face, winking cutely, filled with joy of victory.)

"Hold your cheer now, I'll be back again!"

A temporary pause.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh What was wrong with me? What…"

Lana, who was watching last year's KALPA official championship video with viewers, blushed with an embarrassment.

-Ta-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da.

-Sera sponsored 5,000 won.-

-What's the big deal, Lana was cute. HYPERS. Kekw.

"Oh, Sera, thank you for your support! Are you sure? That's a relief. I felt so good back then! So I just overreacted, but after that, I felt like I shouldn't have done it, and I was so embarrassed and... It's the first time ever to see myself in this video."

After that, she continued to chat with her viewers.

"Let's see... The comments... Hmm? What I said back then was cool? Thank you! I was so happy and confident at that moment!"

"Lana, how come you've never lost a single official match...? I don't know? Maybe 'cause I'm too good?"

-aquabottle sponsored 1,500 won.-

-Working as Guardian and professional gamer and broadcaster must be a hard job... as far as I know, she was just a broadcaster before, I wonder how she became a guardian-

"Thank you, aquabottle! When I first became a guardian, I was just so confused. Lol. I was just having fun broadcasting and winning official competitions when I wasn't that famous, but suddenly a government guy came to me and asked whether I can become a Guardian or not... So I asked him isn't a Guardian's job's a heavy load. He told me that there won't be much change in my life, but just need to participate in mandatory events that don't even hold a few times a year. So I said yes, and I became a guardian! An ancient temple, like, an ancient temple? I think I went to a similar place to that, but, uh, the details of becoming a Guardian and all stuffs are classified... Let's move on!"

-birdy sponsored 2,000 won.-

-Show me your Guardian ability-

"Thank you birdy~ Ability...? Actually it's illegal to use it beside public purpose but, they said little bit is fine... so okay. Wait a minute!"

Lana switched broadcasting screen to her cell phone camera and faced it toward a wall in her room. There were many marks of bare fist punches on the practice wall.

-Bam!

After she took a deep breath, she slammed the wall. At that moment,

-chuck-chock-chucking

A hole was made at the point where her fist landed, and the debris from the crack around it fell.

"Huh? Maybe it's been a while since I've used it... I can't control my strength. Oh my, I'll get accused for this..."

Viewers comforted Lana, chatting, "POG", or "That's okay". Though it should be a surprising scene to normal people, but it was just a usual happening to viewers of Lana's broadcasting since every time she fails the all-perfect mission, she slams her desk to pieces then replace the broken desk and keyboard.

After that, Lana continued to chat with her viewers until the end of the broadcast, and that day ended.

The day's happening was another chance to solidify her title as the 'Lana the Indomitable'.
