Kiara Wanda

Kiara Wanda (キアラ・ワンダ) was a waitress at her family's inn at Andika, but she later joined the Liberators after Andika was destroyed.

Appearance
Kiara was a cute young woman with tanned skin and shoulder-length navy-blue hair. Due to her rabbitman heritage, she had white rabbit ears and a tail.

Personality
Kiara was very lively and accommodating. She would try her best to satisfy the customers at her family's inn. She would, however, be hostile towards anyone that tried to inappropriately flirt with her.

She had an active imagination and would frequently have perverted thoughts about what some of the customers at her family's inn may have be up to while they were in their rooms.

Due to living in Andika for most of life, Kiara was unaccustomed with formalities and would get easily intimidated when dealing with anything that she considered to be extravagant.

Biography
Kiara was born and raised in the floating island city Andika. She spent her childhood working at her family's inn in Andika's Arrogan District, known as "Wanda's Inn", and had become very popular with the locals.

One evening, Kiara greeted the Liberators Miledi Reisen, Oscar Orcus and Naiz Gruen Caliente, who stopped by her inn while they were visiting Andika. She tended to them as their waitress while they were ordering dinner and even offered a rooms for them to sleep in during their stay. Afterwards one of the locals jokingly offered to sleep in her family's inn if Kiara would sleep with him, which prompted Kiara to respond by throwing a tanker of ale at him. Ultimately Miledi's group decided to take up Kiara's offer, with Miledi wanting to be able to stroke Kiara's bunny ears in exchange, to which Kiara embarrassingly agreed to. Once everyone decided to stay at the inn, Kiara asked them about their sleeping arrangements in a nervous tone. Initially, Miledi considered sharing one room with Oscar and Naiz, which immediately caused Kiara to believe that Miledi was in a harem with her two companions, and began discussing sexual senaros that all three of they would be in while sharing a room before she scurried up to get the room ready for them. This misunderstanding caused Miledi to change her mind and demanded for two rooms instead.

Over the next ten days, Kiara made repeated attempts to spy on Miledi's room in the misguided hopes of catching her doing any adult-themed activities with her companions. One evening, her family's inn was attacked by a group of pirates, who severely damaged it and captured Kiara and her mother Vera. Miledi and Oscar located the pirates and attempted to rescue the captives, but as they were being transported to the pirate's ship, they were suddenly confronted by another group of pirates who's ship arrived in a veil of fog. They battled the first group of pirates and took the captives into their custody. As one of the pirates returned to his ship while carrying in injured and unconcious Kiara over his shoulder, he was immedialty attacked by an enraged Miledi after seeing Kiara in such a beaten state. This resulted in a brief confrontation between the Miledi, Oscar and the pirates. During the fight, Miledi was carrying Kiara while fending off the pirates, but she was soon taken a way from her when the pirate's captain Meiru Melusine used the spell "'Torrential Burst" to ensnare Kiara in a dome of water and moved her away from the battle. After both sides ceased fighting once they realized that it was all a misunderstanding, the captives were healed up by Meiru thanks to her Restoration Magic and sent them back to Andika on some small boats that she cobbled together with her Magic as well.

After Kiara and her mother were returned to Andika, her family repaired their damaged inn and resumed business. One month later, Miledi and her friends once again visited Wanda's Inn after having spent all that time away with the pirates. As soon as Kiara saw Miledi greet her, she froze momentarily before frantically making a beeline towards her. The two rolled across the ground and came to a stop with Kiara on top of Miledi. Kiara grabbed Miledi's collar and started shaking her while expressing how worried she had been after Miledi dissapeared following the attack at the inn one month prior. After a while, Kiara finally calmed down and gave the rest of the inn's guests a chance to express their gratitude at Miledi's friends for coming to their aid after the attack, as well as Kiara's parents offering them a feast as thanks. During their meal, Miledi asked Kiara whaat she remembered during the attack, but Kiara had almost no memories of he incident due to being unconcious at the time, with the only thing she recalled whe hearing Miledi scream "Miledi Kick" when she attacked that pirate who was carrying her to his ship.

Days later, when Andika became a battlefield between the pirates and the Holy Church, Kiara watched in awe as Miledi displayed increbible feats of magical prowess while fighting against the church. When the battle was interrupted by a gigantic Monster, the Divine Beast Leviathan, Kiara and the rest of Andika's citizens fled the island while it was sinking due to the Monster attempting to destroy it. In the end, the church's forces were thoughly defeated, and the Leviathan was killed by Miledi's group.

After the battle against both the Holy Church and the Leviathan, as well as the subsiquent destruction of Andika, Kiara and her family were among city's inhabitants that decided to join the Liberators after having witnessed Miledi not only defeat such powerful enemies, but also using her Magic to give the people of Andika enough time to escape before it sank. One month later, as the Liberators were preparing to journey to the mainland with the new recruits, Miledi expressed her concerns at Kiara's choice to join her mission in spite of the dangers it came with, but Kiara assured her that she and her family wished to join them in order to help make the world a better place.

Kiara joined the rest of the Liberators' new recruits from Andika into helping build a new settlement for many of them in the Crimson Desert's northern region for a month. During that time, she made every opportunity she could to prove herself useful to the Liberators' cause and stand by Miledi's side by demonstrating her presence-manipulation abilitiies that she possessed thanks to her rabbitman heritage. Even so, Miledi felt that it was best to assign Kiara to a support role within the organization. As disheartening as this was for Kiara, Miledi promised that they would always be friends. She then gave her a necklace artifact that Oscar made for her that disguised her as a human, and promised to vist her again when its mana reserves needed to be replenished. This heartfelt moment was suddenly interrupted by a confrontation between Oscar and the Liberators' Expeditionary Squad Captain Snowbell. Seeing the two combatants in such a ragged state invoked Kiara's overactive immagination and lectured Oscar about needing to be attentive to Miledi sexually, as she thought he was only focused on Snowbell, before going off on a tangent. It was then that Kiara's mother Vera arrived and dragged her away in order to get her to focus on her assigned duties. Soon after, when the Liberators' leaders held a meeting to discuss their progress, Kiara's family were chosen to act as representatives for the recruits from Andika due to how close they had become with Miledi.

Kiara and her family later accompanied Miledi's group to Esperado, the capital of the Entris Federation, in order to work with the support team that was stationed at their hidden base in the area, by working as innkeepers. Kiara was intimidated for being in such a populated city for the first time in her life, and constantly clung to Miledi's arm. While in the city, Miledi bought Kiara a new set of clothes in order to help her stand out less. When they finally arrived at their destination, Kiara's family was shocked to see that the base was actually a lavish 15 story hotel. At first, they nervously thought Miledi wanted them to manage it, but Miledi assured them that they would be only be there to recieve their orientation for the duration of their visit. As they entered the building, they were greeted by the receptionist, Shirley Nelson, who was actually another member of the Liberators' support team. Kiara's family timidly followed Shirley as she led them towards the Liberators' hidden base through a secret passage in the hotel. When they finally arrived at the entrance to their base, they were greeted by Shirley's father, as well as the branch leader Rigan, and were escorted to Liberators' hidden base. When Miledi was reuniting with her old comrades, Rigan talked to Kiara and the others about why she was so popular with the Liberators, as well as the hardships she endured for their cause. When he was finished his explanation, he asked them if they had the resolve to make the world their enemy by joining the Liberators. Kiara responded by saying that she was unsure, but vowed to support Miledi. However, she expressed her wish that her parents reconsidered their choice out of concern for their safety, but they too resolved themselves to support the Liberators. Over the next two days, Kiara joined the Liberators in a celebratory party in honor of Miledi's visit, followed by a going away party once Miledi and her friends had to leave (and even managed to get drunk alongside Miledi). When Kiara and her family were fully integrated as members of the Liberators' support team, they were assigned to manage an inn that was located in one of the federations' outlier villages called Horuo, and would also be called "Wanda's Inn".

One evening when Kiara was out shopping one evening, she was suddenly approached by a girl named Aisha, who immediately proceeded to sniff her repeatedly, much to Kiara's distress. Aisha saw how unsettled Kiara was by her actions and apologized for her rashness. She then explained her reason for sniffing her was due to detecting Oscar scent on her person, while also claiming to be Oscar's wife. Kiara, however, immedialty accused Aisha of lying and proclaimed that Oscar was already in a relationship with Miledi, and even went so far as to argue that he had engaged in many sexual activities with her (which were all false). This shocked both Aisha and her traveling companion Kyaty Cougan, and they argued with Kiara about the validity of her claims. Kiara invited Aisha's group to the inn she was working at and vowed to prove her claims to be true. As they all headed for the in, the three girls continued arguing with one and other over Oscar's preferred lover.
