Varesa is described by Iansan as:
"Varesa, my most peculiar student… No one matches her easygoing, carefree nature. No matter where she travels, she’s like a child on an adventure—always searching for delicious treats or a cozy spot to rest... But beware! If you ever fight Abyss monsters with her, the moment she gets into the zone, she turns into an unstoppable force!"
Alongside Varesa, update 5.5 introduces Iansan, a beloved NPC who's stepping into the playable roster as a 4-star Electro user wielding a Polearm. Previously just a background character, Iansan is now ready to shine in the spotlight.

Varesa's thoughts on Iansan highlight her admiration and respect:
"Iansan is Natlan’s top trainer and the person I admire the most! People say I’m talented, but without her training, that talent would have gone to waste. Don’t worry if you’re not used to working out—Coach Iansan knows how to train anyone! Oh, by the way, wanna check out this flyer? She’s recruiting new students!"
These new characters promise to bring fresh dynamics to the game, enhancing the Electro element and offering players new strategies and adventures. Stay tuned for more details as the update approaches!
