*'''Eun''' is based off the [[Wikipedia:en:Nine_tailed_fox|nine-tailed fox]], a species of creature depicted in the Shan Hai Jing as having the voice of a human infant. It can be eaten by humans, and those who eat it will be protected from evil.

**Eun was sealed in said hairpin through a mysterious exorcism art by the Haan family, though as revealed by [[Stirbargen]], and later elaborated on in the [[Master Road]] quest [[Story/Ara Chapter 41-1|Just]], a demon was involved in the Haan family learning said art. It is possible that [[Shakti]] uses the same arts, as she learns them through '''Eun''' recounting the art's characteristics to her.
*'''Ara''''s full name, '''Ara Haan''', was probably based on the term [[Wikipedia:en:Arhat|"Arhat" (or "Arahant")]], from the [[Wikipedia:en:Theravada|Buddhism]], that means: "one who is worthy", "a perfected person who has attained nirvana".

*'''Ara''' is from Fahrmann, in the Northern Xin Empire. This region has not currently been explored during the main story with the exception of the Raid [[Fahrmann's Peak]] and '''Ara''''s tutorial [[A burning village]].

**All of Ara's job names are direct transcriptions from Chinese to Hangul, which in most cases, due to the religious ties between the two languages, means the Korean name has the exact same meaning as the Chinese name and are pronounced almost the same. In other cases, however, such as [[Devi]], the Korean might not mean anything outright, with the name's origin solely coming from the given Chinese name.

** In the Chinese version of [[Hall of El|Hall of El (Trial)]], '''Ara''' mentioned if she wouldn't save Elsword, she would 'lose her duty to being a martial arts master'. In ancient China, '侠' (Xia) is used to describe people who save others by using their abilities, especially martial arts.
