** 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. | ** 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'.

*While not mentioned in-game, the martial art that '''Ara''' practices uses [[Wikipedia:en:Qigong|Qigong]] as its base, the act of using ones own "Chi" or life energy (which is what her system is based on) to meditate and calm the mind. Many aspects of the practice can be seen in various skills in all paths, such as the various animal motifs for her secret arts. | *While not mentioned in-game, the martial art that '''Ara''' practices uses [[Wikipedia:en:Qigong|Qigong]] as its base, the act of using ones own "Chi" or life energy (which is what her system is based on) to meditate and calm the mind.

**[[Apsara]] focuses more on her martial prowess, using Qigong only when the situation demands it, as seen through her plethora of 10 Energy cost skills, with little other skills consuming her Energy. | |||
**[[Devi]] masters Qigong to continuously cycle its usage and recovery, as seen through most of her skills consuming large amounts of energy but also recovering a lot when converted, with multiple passives directly referring to Chi itself (rather than the usual in-game term of "Energy"). | |||
**[[Shakti]] forgoes training her Qigong due to her reliance on Eun's powers, resulting in the system taking a more passive approach, with most skills being usable regardless of how much Energy is available. | |||
**Likewise, [[Surya]] focuses largely on aiding the various spirits of holy beasts she encounters, drawing on their power instead of her own Energy, using it exclusively to help those around her. | |||

*'''Ara''' is depicted as being a bit of an airhead, being very clumsy and often making mistakes while being bad at dancing.
