**Pistrix**, also known as **Series Pistrix No. 29**, is a playable character in the *Arcana Heart* series, who appears in *Arcana Heart 3 Love Max Six Stars XTEND* as a DLC character.

## Appearance

Pistirx is an artificial humanoid marine hybrid with greenish blonde hair and orange eyes. She has pale blue skin with five blue shark fins on her body, two on each part of her legs with on her back and a tail. She has a shark like "hat" complete with yellow eyes on top of her head that appears to be part of her body. Her only articles of clothing includes a white strap barely covering her and a light purple ribbon on her tail.

## Personality

Not much is known as of late. What is known is that Pistrix is noticeably cheerful and friendly. She also appears to lack the villainous traits that her creator, Parace L'sia, has.

## Story

Specimen No.29 when the homunculus type Pistrix was generated in the study of Parace L'sia. Parace L'sia treats No.29 as one of her test bodies, and No.29 also does not have emotions like between parent and children. Emotions are rich and have various facial expressions. She want to look fashionable and cute. Although she was born, she has high intelligence and absorbs knowledge is obtained from manga, it is a little off. The homunculus created by Parace L'sia's alchemy evolves with the Holy Spirit (ether). The piece is to become a perfect body that is ahead of evolution. She set out on a journey to collect the Holy Spirit (ether).
