Profile

Cliffheart is a Rhodes Island Operator who was born in Kjerag. She is a specialist in rock and mountain climbing and is proficient with all kinds of climbing tools. Currently she is undergoing treatment for Oripathy at Rhodes Island.

Clinical Analysis

Imaging tests have shown the outlines of her internal organs to be indistinct due to abnormal shadows. Originium granules have been detected in her circulatory system, confirming her to be infected with Oripathy.

[Cell-Originium Assimilation] 7%

Due to puncturing by an Originium stone, Operator exhibits visible Originium crystals at the puncture site.

[Blood Originium-Crystal Density] 0.28u/L

Course of infection is transitioning to the middle-term but has not yet had a significant impact upon the infected.

Archive File 1

Cliffheart is a natural explorer and climber. Her reflexes and endurance far exceed what normal people could think possible. With even the simplest of items, Cliffheart is capable of traversing obstacles that would stop most people in their tracks. Cliffheart is more comfortable using her climbing instruments than a traditional melee weapon. Even on the battlefield, she uses these tools as weapons. Don't question the power of her snow spade or ice pick - in the hands of the right person, even instruments such as these can be lethal.

Archive File 2

While attempting to climb the holy mountain, Cliffheart was pierced by an Originium stone during an unexpected landslide and thus became Infected. Fortunately, most of the people of Kjerag hold no prejudice against the Infected, and Cliffheart still managed to lead a normal life. Still, in order to make the Originium crystals on her body not appear so conspicuous, she takes clever steps to hide it. Thus, even outside Kjerag, she is free to move as she pleases.

Archive File 3

As a member of the Silverash Family, she garners a lot of attention despite not appearing as elite as her older brother and sister. Unlike her siblings, she is not bound by any official position and thus is free to speak. Therefore, she often mingles with the common people, listening to their stories, learning about their lives, and studying their skills. She then uses these things she's learned to contribute to her clan.

Archive File 4

Whatever peace the Silverash Family had came to an end when Pramanix was anointed saint. SilverAsh could no longer interacted with Cliffheart in the open, and Pramanix couldn't communicate with either of them because of her newfound official position. This made Cliffheart furious, but she understood that there was no way for the three of them to be as they once were. There was nothing she could do to fix the situation, and this feeling of helplessness made her disheartened for the first time in her life. Still, if there were anything she could do to reunite with her brother and sister, she'd gladly do what it takes.

Promotion Record

Cliffheart seems to always instill feelings of cheer and optimism in those she meets, though her soul burns with the desire to inflict mischief. If you bite into a piece of cake only to find it full of beans, or your employee card has gone missing, there's a high probability that Cliffheart is responsible. If not, then she'll likely find out who is. Making mischief and exposing other mischief makers are two of her favorite pastimes.

    Module record

    What does 'peak' mean to a climber?

    A sort of height? Physically, mentally, in all sorts of senses... you conquer this height, you touch the sky, you prove your own worth.

    That seems to be exactly it, yet it's not that simple.

    At least, to Miss Ensia, it's not that simple.

    While in Kjerag, mountain-climbing to her was less about conquering something and more about connecting something. At the foot is her brother, Sir Enciodes, and the whole Silverash family, and atop the mountain is her sister, the Saintess of all Kjerag.

    She's already scaled Karlan before, and whether to conquer or connect, she's succeeded.

    But we've received word today that Miss Ensia has taken gold in a Bolívarian mountaineering event.

    An honor she's put her life on the line for, with dangers beyond anyone's imagination.

    The hosts' climate monitoring systems had malfunctioned, and the competitors were faced midway with a snowstorm and a series of ice cracks out of nowhere. With the vast majority having no way forward, the hosts announced the event was suspended, and organized a squad to rescue any competitors who hadn't yet returned to base camp. On top of that, Miss Ensia had lost her communications gear, insulated tent, and part of her food supply while escaping danger. In these extreme circumstances, every second longer out there was a matter of life or death, but she'd already overcome the most difficult, perilous ice ridge known to Terra, and the summit was calling. So, should she retreat, or should she turn around and continue up?

    ......

    After Miss Ensia came to, the first thing she reportedly said to the medical personnel was this: 'The sight from the summit was amazing!'

    The hosts proclaimed the event still valid, and gave the trophy to Miss Ensia, as the one and only award-winner.

    The distant peaks beyond Kjerag have none of Kjeragandr's divine protection. Miss Ensia was no more than a competitor from strange parts. She succeeded in planting her flag at the very top, all just for a view of the unknown.

    ......

    To end today's special program, we leave you with a quote from the hosts' speech when they gave the award:

    'She is a true climber.', Special report made on-the-spot by the network after news of Cliffheart winning a Bolívarian mountaineering event made its way back to Kjerag. Above extracts are taken from body of report.

When it comes to Mountaineering, I won't lose to anyone! No one knows these tools better than me. They make great weapons too!
Talk after Trust Increase 2
Yeah, Oripathy really changed me. But if I keep wallowing in self-pity, that wouldn't be like me, right? So, no matter what lies in wait in the future... I should continue working hard on my chosen path.
Talk after Trust Increase 3
Ah, it's snowing... We Silverashes can't go back to the way we were... I get that. Everything's changed. Only the snow is the same, the same snowflakes that I watched falling back home.

Greeting
Mornin', Doctor!
Birthday
Doctor, happy birthday! Speaking of which, lemme have a look at what my brother gave you! Aww... he's still into this pricey boring ornament stuff. Zero times as practical as my present. Anyway, check this out, Doctor! A choice set of climbing equipment, just for you. Once the weather's good, let's go scale some mountains!
Anniversary Celebration
My brother and sister are still butting heads, but their relationship's smoothed out a bunch, I can feel it. Gotta thank you for melting the ice between them, Doctor. But still, I really wish hanging around home was as chill as being at Rhodes Island…
