Aina

Aina is a major character in Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis.

Appearance
Aina is a dark skinned, blue haired teenager who wears her hair in a side ponytail. She wears some white and black armoured items of clothing around the legs, elbows and chest.

History
Aina is a native of Planet Halpha and the daughter of Garoa, one of ARKS most battle tested and reliable soldiers, having kept the Aelio region safe from the invading DOLLS, a type of aggressive alien creature for many years. One of her favourite things to do is to investigate crashing pods and welcoming the Meteorn, humanoids from space that have special skills and techniques, to Halpha.

Aina is an apprentice ranger for ARKS, attempting to find her own feet on the battlefield so she can be useful to her father and fellow Aelio Town residents. When Manon, a Meteorn fell to Halpha in a pod, Aina quickly became firm friends with her, with Manon being assigned the role of bodyguard for Aina during her training.

When the protagonist, also a Meteorn, falls to Halpha, Aina is the one who removes them from the pod's status and greets them, guiding them back to Aelio Town. She introduces Manon and the trio continue to town when they are suddenly attacked by a DOLLS member. The three work together to bring the creature down, but are suddenly attacked by multiple DOLLS appearing from nowhere. Luckily Garoa turns up and makes short work of them with one motion.

Later that day Aina and Manon are on the beach watching the sunset with the whole of Aelio Town having come out to enjoy a meal together. The protagonist arrives and they greet them happily, encouraging the player to join them as ARKS members. This peaceful moment is destroyed however when Dark Falz suddenly appears, dropping multiple DOLLS into Aelio Town and facing Garoa down.

Aina and the others defend as best they can, but Garoa sends them away entrusting his daughter's safety to Manon and the new arrival as he faces off against Dark Falz. Aina watches on helplessly as she is dragged away from the battlefield to witness Aelio Town and her father destroyed by the attack. Having been hit by a stray energy bolt, Aina, Manon and the protagonist black out.

Aina searches the ruins of the town the next day but finds no sign of her father. Holding out hope that he somehow survived, she decides to go to Central City with Manon and the protagonist to enlist the aid of other ARKS members and form a plan to destroy Dark Falz and the DOLLS once and for all.
