She has the Erudition Path, which allows her to attack more than one target. Her skills will put DOTs on target that will deal damage over time.

Serval Story

The free and rebellious eldest daughter of the Landau family, once a close friend of Cocolia, her interests has now led her to become a mechanic. In the perpetually winter-stricken Belobog, she opened a workshop called “Neverwinter” that puts business on hold from time to time for rock ‘n’ roll performances. And should anyone ask her about the workshop’s profitability… “This is just a hobby, dear. I’m not short of money.”
