Maple

Maple/ Kaede Honjō is the main heroine, who has just started playing NewWorld Online. Since she doesn't like to get hurt, she puts every skill point she earns into boosting her defense, allowing her to acquire new skills and level up simply by withstanding attacks. Even with her lack of gaming experience, Maple remarkably gains enough resistance to almost anything, giving the game admins many headaches on how to slow her down; to which, her unorthodox methods overcomes the developers' adjustments. She seems to have an innate luck ability to locate rare items, hidden dungeons, and unique quests and skills (such as the Loving Sacrifice quest where she gains a second form).

Personality
Maple is a bright and cheerful girl, who can be quite dull sometimes. When it comes to her friend Sally, she is very open to her ideas.

Plot
She just started playing NewWorld Online. Since she doesn't like to get hurt, she puts every skill point she earns into boosting her defense, allowing her to acquire new skills and level up simply by withstanding attacks. Even with her lack of gaming experience, Maple remarkably gains enough resistance to almost anything, giving the game admins many headaches on how to slow her down; to which, her unorthodox methods overcomes the developers' adjustments.

Despite her weaknesses, she uses techniques like [Cover], to make up for her lack of mobility. After consuming a Hydra and receiving one-of-kind equipment and shield, Maple acquires powerful poisonous magic, and obtains a skill called [Gross Eater] due to maxing out her vitality points, that devours her foes in a single counter. She becomes the third-rank player after competing in the first event. During the second event, she finds a Monster Egg which hatches into a turtle, which she names Syrup.
