**Warning: This page contains spoilers for The Chronicles of Ardonia**

Forest is half-human half-Ardoni who enjoys fighting. She is self-taught and as a result lacks many skills, however she is skilled at wielding all sorts of weapons and Songs.

## Personality

Forest is extremely stubborn and impatient. However she is not very distrustful and this is one of her main weaknesses. She is quite independent but seems to enjoy working with others.

Forest enjoys battling however she dislikes killing and avoids it whenever possible. Unlike most of the Ardoni, she does not bear a grudge against the Voltaris.

Throwing insults is one of Forest’s favourite pastimes, and they are usually quite creative.

Forest met Darren near Ataraxia, when she saved him from drowning in a river. The two have been friends ever since. Darren can make tools and weapons and keeps Forest in stock of weapons.

## Story

### Hunting

One day, when Forest was about eight and already very skilled at using weapons, she went hunting with her father. However, they were attacked by wolves and Forest and her father were separated while trying to fight off the wolf pack. While running away from the wolves, Forest slipped and fell into a river, losing consciousness.

### The River

Forest woke up next to the same river, with her bow in her left hand. She didn't know how to get back to her family, and spent a few hours . When night fell, things started to get serious. Forest heard wolves and had no idea how to defend herself. When the wolf pack saw Forest, she shot up a tree and stayed there. After realizing that the wolves wouldn't go away, Forest shot one of the wolves with her bow, scaring the rest away.

### Darren

When day came, Forest climbed down the tree and returned to the river, intending to make a bow for the following night. However, when she returned to the river Forest heard yells and saw a boy flailing about in the river. Without thinking, she dived into the river and successfully pulled both of them to safety. The boy's name turned out to be Darren, and the two became friends.

### A New Family

Seeing that Forest didn't have a home or a proper family, Darren invited Forest to live at his house. Forest gratefully accepted, and stayed for a while with Darren's parents. At first, Darren's parents were concerned with the idea of a hybrid staying in their house, but quickly got used to Forest. After a while, Forest started going on expeditions outside the house. After finding out, Darren went with her as well, with the two often straying quite far from their front doors.

### Broken Peace

A few months later, Forest and Darren returned to the house to find it ruined, with Darren's parents both gone. Both of them were forced to scour the house for any supplies left behind and leave. The two made camp near Ataraxia after traveling for a day, and Forest taught Darren to fight so they could defend themselves. Darren also tried to teach Forest to make tools and weapons, but quickly gave up when she showed no interest in the matter.

### First Songs

After Forest and Darren had settled into the routine of Forest hunting and Darren making weapons and tools and going to Ataraxia to trade for more supplies, Forest discovered a cave leading to a bunch of secret tunnels. After exploring one tunnel, Forest found a Song. It was Aggrobeam, and Forest, knowing about the Shrine in Ataraxia and the four Song pillars, snuck into Ataraxia with Darren at night and synced with her Song, promptly being knocked out.

### The Duel

After a while, Forest traveled far away from hers and Darren's camp, encountering a Voltaris. They had a fight, with Forest winning with some difficulty and managing to kill the Voltaris. She felt bad about it, however, even though she acquired two more Songs, Protesphere and Mobiliflash. She also synced with these, using them in many battles.

### Tobias

While Forest was still learning to wield Songs, she came across someone who was just like her - an Ardoni-human hybrid! However, when Tobias Kaltaris saw her in a tree above him, he misunderstood Forest's purpose and attacked her. After the fight, the two reluctantly forged a cordial agreement to leave each other alone. However, when Forest saw Tobias using his Songs to fend off two Voltaris at once, she couldn't resist asking him for training. Tobias refused at first, but gave in when he got tired of Forest following him around.

### Enemies and Allies

Later on, Forest met Zafina Voltaris when (of course) she tried to attack Forest, but in the end they agreed to not kill each other. Later on, while Forest and Zafina were on Mt. Velgrin looking for Gladius Voltaris, they ran into Airiox (or Airiox ran into them) and, typically, Airiox and Zafina fought. Forest attempted to defuse the situation by giving Airiox time to escape and hoping that they wouldn't meet up again. This did not work. Forest and Zafina went after Airiox and found him with Tempest Sendaris, and since Airiox was also looking for Gladius they decided to work together.

## Appearance

### Markings

Forest does not have any of the typical Ardoni markings, however she has the Ardoni horns/ears with three ear pixels.

### Eyes

Forest's eyes are golden yellow, a slightly more orange colour than her horns.

## Weapons

Forest always fights with her left hand, because her right arm is disabled due to unknown reasons.

### Items

Bow

Forest's first weapon was a small handcrafted bow, however she is a terrible archer and can't hit the side of a mountain with it. She uses her bow a lot because she misses about nine out of ten shots. She normally uses a small sized bow.

Iron Staff

Forest's most used weapon is her iron staff, which was given to her by Darren, her friend, when she was nine (in human years). Darren also taught her to use the staff and she is very skilled in using it. She often uses it to fire Aggrobeam and the staff is her number one weapon. Forest is most confident in battle with her staff, however this can be a weakness as she often hesitates when not using it. One of Forest's main advantages is that her staff is enchanted with Loyalty, which means she has access to a wide range of different attacks that are hard to replicate with a normal staff.

Diamond Rapier

Forest owns a diamond rapier which is quite light and she is able to attack very quickly with it. It has a curved blade and a jagged tip.

Diamond Broadsword

Forest possesses a diamond broadsword which was also gifted to her by Darren. It is her newest weapon however she is quite skilled at using it. She always uses it in close combat. It is quite light for a broadsword and Forest values light weapons for fast movement.

Dual Obsidian Daggers

Forest has two obsidian daggers. She uses them a lot, even though she prefers swords and staffs. Unlike most of Forest's weapons, it was not forged by Darren. Forest found the obsidian daggers in an abandoned cabin near the River of Guardians and used them to defend herself from wolves. Forest trains with the daggers a lot and she uses them most often in stealth attacks because they are hard to see.

Trident

Forest's trident is one of her most used weapons. Unlike her aim with a bow, she can hit almost anything from a relatively far distance away, even if it is moving.

Throwing Daggers

Forest occasionally takes a backpack full of throwing daggers with her on trips. Although she doesn't use them often, she is actually quite good at throwing the daggers related to her aim with a bow. Her backpack can fit about fifteen daggers.

### Songs

Aggrobeam

Aggrobeam shoots a beam of red light out of Forest's weapon, most typically her staff and occasionally one of her swords. Aggrobeam is Forest's most used Song, partially because she is a terrible shot and misses all the time.

Mobiliflash

Mobiliflash is Forest's second most used Song. It allows Forest to quickly dash in any direction and she uses it mostly for faster movement rather than evasion.

Protesphere

Protesphere is Forest's least used Song. She only uses it rarely, to protect herself when she is in a vulnerable position. Protesphere summons a bubble which can protect up to three people, including the user.

## Other

### Thief

Forest is a thief and is especially good at it. She can steal out of people’s back pockets as she’s passing by without anyone noticing. Forest can also steal weapons off people’s backs, which she especially enjoys doing.
