Aria T. Loak

The Blizzard Queen of the Tundra Road, Aria T. Loak is one of the most feared Storm Riders in the world, known to be absolutely ruthless, cold and even showcasing some sadistic tendencies. She is a force to be reckoned with, the strongest Regalia owner working for the Shadow King, and the only one who does it willingly without needing to be threatened and scared into submission. She has sent her fair share to the morgue and more than that to the hospital, even going as far as breaking ATs and legs alike, spines too, believing that Storm Riding is a privilege that should only be afforded to the elite, not a right available to all. She is also Sebastian Fateburn's right hand, one of a very small group of people who know what his true plan is, and even what his origins are.

## Appearance

A slender and beautiful woman with an athletic yet curvy body. Preferring to dress in white almost exclusively, Aria isn't afraid to dress in skirts and shirts or tops with cleavage, and despite the constant cold she brings forth, she's never one to dress in Winter clothing like scarfs and the like. In fact, when not riding, especially in particularly sunny days, Aria prefers to have a hat on her head to help cover her from the sun and keep her pale skin in that same tone, almost porcelain like. The hat itself came from her father, a retired military man of high station.

## Personality

Cold, ruthless and with some sadistic tendencies, Aria's nicknames relating to ice aren't all because of her Road but also a reference to her general attitude. She is arrogant yet stoic, and with a definite superiority complex, believing the world itself belongs to the strong, and that the weak only exist to be preyed upon before being ultimately removed.

She is quite stubborn, pretentious and close minded too, lacking empathy in general. Mercy is not part of her vocabulary. She has a very positive idea of her self-worth, inflated in most cases, and it also applies to her appearance as she is very comfortable and unshackled by things like shame.

Because of her way of seeing things, she doesn't believe that Regalia belong in the hands of the unworthy, and thus she aimed to not just take away but actually destroy every Regalia that were in the hands of anyone who couldn't defeat her... That all changed when she met the Shadow King, losing to him and acknowledging his power as absolute. In the midst of this, she also became infatuated with him, a feeling that was never returned and this only made her want him more, deciding to follow him wholeheartedly and wanting to see his plan to fruition. So long as Sebastian's general attitude does not change, she is fiercely loyal to him. If he ever presented himself to be weak though, she would turn on him and take the Shadow Regalia for herself, becoming the Shadow Queen and giving it the respect she believes it deserves... So in a way, she fell more in love with Sebastian's skill and Regalia than the man himself, although it does help that they have similar ideals when it comes to looking down on their fellow men.

## Trivia

* Had it not been for her feelings over the Shadow King, Aria would have still hunted down the other Regalia users but to destroy their Regalia instead.
* Though she has committed murder via the use of her ATs, she's never been caught and the police still can't prove she was involved. This is because her wide area of effect moves easily knock out cameras in the area and push away witnesses, but also because using ice as a weapon means it will just melt away, leaving behind no murder weapon, not even AT tracks.
* She is also a very intelligent individual, another reason why her crimes go unpunished.
* There used to be more Riders of the Tundra Road, but Aria took them out one by one and made sure to not teach anyone how to use her Road. Though high level Tuners know how to teach others on how to use this Road, they have stopped doing it in fear of their students getting hunted by the Blizzard Queen Aria T. Loak.
