Kaede Honjou

Maple is the main character of the series. A curious girl with a great shield that blocks most attacks.

Appearance
Maple has short, black hair that ends just past her chin. Her eyes are a cool-grey shade and her skin is fair. In-game, she wears armor that has a black and red color scheme. The armor's focus points of durability are the gauntlets, shinguard, boots and breastplate. Her forearms are predominantly bare as well as her legs above the knees. Red mesh fabric covers the least protected parts of her body, but some skin remains bare. Her armor descends into a cloak-like drape with a dark exterior and red underside.

In her hair is a white clip that consists of four rhombuses that create a compass-like shape. Her breastplate has a red crest on her chest. Carrying her shield, it matches her armor with red accents patterning it geometrically. At the center of the shield is a large red pendant plated in black.

Personality
Maple is an innocent, fun-loving girl, and her lack of ability to hold a grudge and non-competitive nature means she sees virtually everyone as a potential friend regardless of past experiences with them, as seen from her interactions with Kasumi. She also is quite the sucker for anything that looks cute and can be quite shy when she's the center of attention. That said, she also has a tendency to be absent-minded and reckless, especially in the beginning when she thoughtlessly puts every skill point she has into Vitality and later when she almost gets killed soloing the Poison Dragon Dungeon.

She also has the tendency to pursue prospects to finding anything of rarity quite interesting. Collecting things that are initially thought to be demimondaine.

While not averse to fighting in general, Maple tends to have a hard time with attacking anything, especially other players, even if it is to her benefit, as she is averse to getting hurt and likely against hurting anyone else just as much. When the situation calls for it, such as in the fight against the Silver Wing boss, Maple becomes quite capable of making practical decisions on the fly, though the rest of the time, she's making her pet turtle, Syrup, capable of flight just because she wanted to.
