Arisha's official backstory as seen in-game post-character creation.
Keep in mind in-game backstories are shortened.
Images were taken from official Vindictus Korea website.
Ever since she was a child,
Arisha held extraordinary power.

She could look into moments...
Special moments, in which time was stopped.

Moments where the wind froze, and the world sunk into silence.
Where not a single leaf so much as twitched.

Arisha liked those moments.

Shenn
Fascinating.

One day, Arisha encountered a man
as she was exploring some forsaken ruins.

Shenn
What's your name, girl?

Arisha
Arisha.
Who's asking?

The man laughed.

Shenn
I am called Shenn.

Shenn
Would you like to learn magic...
Arisha?

Without a moment's hesitation, Arisha nodded.

That's how her new life begun.

Arisha followed Shenn to his tower
and began to explore her innate powers.

She had a talent for controlling mana.

To help her, Shenn crafted a focus.

When she used it, Arisha could manipulate
mana particles however she pleased.

Even as she grew in power, the moments where
time stood still continued to seek her out.

But they were no longer pleasant. They had become
moments of pain and nightmare.

Unbearable loneliness pressed down upon her,
crushing Arisha in darkness that felt eternal.

She would be trapped in those moments until she blacked out.
When she awoke, Shenn was always at her side.

Arisha
What's happening to me?

Shenn
Everything will be all right.

Shenn brushed her forehead as Arisha trembled in fear.

One night, as Arisha slept...

Shenn's blade pierced through her chest.

It was a ritual to seal the god from the otherworld,
who was lurking inside Arisha's body.

When it felt the ritual begin, the god began to fight back.

Mana surged out of Arisha and attacked Shenn.

He screamed from the pain, but never let go of the sword
in his hand.

The image of Arisha thrashing reflected from his eyes.

But he never let go. With one final cry, he poured all the mana
he could muster into the seal.

The seal was complete.
The room grew still.

A pair of glasses and a longsword clattered to the ground.

When Arisha finally awoke, she picked up the glasses, puzzled.

They belonged to someone...
Someone who cared about her...

But she could not remember who.

She wandered for days, aimless, not knowing who she was.

Her body was marked with rune magic, but she couldn't
remember what had caused them.

She headed to the city, hoping the magician who lived
there would be able to help her.

On the way there, a group of masked men surrounded her.

She readied her mana for a battle.

Masked Man
Peace, girl. We are not here to fight you.

One of the men spoke. She could not tell which it was.

Masked Man
We are here to check on the heretic's power,
To make sure it's been successfully sealed.

Masked Man
It's in a different form than we expected,
but it appears to have been sealed.

With that, the masked men turned to leave.

Arisha
Stop! Who are you?
What do you know about me?

The men paused.

Masked Man
I almost forgot.
He told us to tell you...

Masked Man
Witch of Time, the person you seek
is no longer in this world.

A shadow tugged on Arisha's memory...

A man's laugh... A sharp face
adorned with a pair of glasses.

The memory flickered and was lost...

Arisha felt tears flowing down her face.

She vowed to find an answer.
She wouldn't return to the tower until she did.

Arisha left the forest and arrived at a town.

The town's name was Colhen.
