Our story begins with [[Elsword]], a young boy continuing his knight training in the village of [[Ruben Forest/Elsword|Ruben]]. He discovers the great, blue demon [[Berthe]] trying to take away the El Shard in [[Ruben]], which is vital in maintaining life for the village and the surrounding forest. Elsword unleashes his anger and manages to force Berthe to retreat, with the help of the wandering magician, [[Aisha]], who happened upon the battle. Meanwhile, the elven ranger [[Rena]] overhears a group of bandits also planning to steal Ruben's El Shard. She engages the leader, Banthus, but he is able to escape with the El Shard. Rena, Elsword, and Aisha resolve to work together to retrieve the stolen El Shard from [[Banthus]] and the bandits, thus forming the El Search Party. This would begin their adventure as the members of the El Search Party travel across the continent to track down the El, make new allies and friends, stop powerful and cunning foes, solve the mysteries surrounding the El and the El Lady, and protect Elrios from the growing evil that threatens to destroy it.

Raven was filled with fury and rage, and the control device implanted in him used his anger to take over his consciousness. He and his rebel group terrorized the Ponggo of [[Altera]] and stole the El Shard from [[3-6|Wally's Airship]] for the Nasods. Elsword and the El Search Party confronted Raven aboard [[4-1|the Black Crow]] to stop his destruction and take back the El. Raven's battle with the party helped him regain his sanity and remember that he wanted to protect those he holds dear. He then joins the party to find the missing El in hopes of enforcing justice and clearing his sins.

[[Rose]] is a female gunner and special collaboration character with the game ''Dungeon Fighter Online''. She crosses over into Elrios from a dimension known as Empyrean, where she grew up to be a soldier. This skilled individual climbed the ranks to be enlisted in the elite force known as the Majestic Garden, where Rose shows her dedication to aiding and protecting the Princess.
As the heavens began to show signs of great disaster, strange monsters from another dimension appeared and attacked the Princess. With how dangerous the situation was becoming, the Princess investigated the dimensional tear. After discovering the cause, the Princess tasked Rose with a special mission: to travel to the dimension of Elrios and remove the source of Empyrean's disaster. For her Princess, Rose accepted. Once preparations and the dimensional portal device were complete, Rose made the jump. Once she landed in [[Outer Atlas Station|Elrios]], the battle navigator she was provided activated, a mouthy device named Zero. Together, Rose and Zero begin their search for the source of the great disaster. Their investigation leads them [[Elysion]], where the two witness Elsword and the El Search Party battle Solace. After the red-haired boy makes his choice, Rose is asked to assist the El Search Party by the El Lady and Solace. Rose and Zero catch up to the party in [[Elrianode]], after investigating [[11-4|Debrian Laboratory]]. Though their reasons may be different, the two parties join forces under the common goal of stopping the disaster that threatens their respective dimensions.


Rose's main firearms are her revolvers, muskets, auto-guns, and hand-cannons, giving her an array of mid-to-long range options. Her skills as an elite soldier shines through in her nimble movements, close-quarter kicks, and ability to use numerous types of devastating weaponry. She can also increase the power of her shots through the continuous use of her guns.


Rose begins her adventure with a quick uppercut that lets her freely spray bullets into any unsuspecting enemy [[File:RoseSkill2.png|link=Barbecue!]] and an evasive backstep [[File:RoseSkill1.png|link=Backstep]].
