A Defense-scaling 4-star whose Shield Wall gives the whole team a 3-turn barrier and heals them.

Profile

A particularly ticklish feline Suin, Armin is the valiant and cheerful Commander of the Longtail Company. However, she is easily tempted, and quickly convinced to go along with the whims of her fellow mercenaries. She loves to collect earrings but since her ears are so sensitive she's unable to actually wear them.

Armin carries the title "Unmatched in her bravery, commander of the Longtail Company". Armin is voiced by Olivia Hack in English, 明坂聡美 in Japanese, and 박신희 in Korean. Armin's hobby is shopping for accessories, and Armin's good at impulse buying things at high prices. Armin likes collecting earrings, money and mercenary clients. Armin was released on 30 August 2018.
