Maplestory:Aran

INTRO-
Awakening of the Hero that uses pole arm in the battle against the Black Wizard: Aran

After centuries of being trapped in the ice under the curse of the Black Wizard, Aran the legendary Hero has finally woken up.

He has lost all memories from the past and his abilities. Awaiting his awakening at his side is a girl named Lirin. Lirin is the last member of the clan that believed in the resurrection of the Aran.

Day by day, with the help of Lirin and other member of the clan, Aran is slowly regaining his memories and beginning to adjust to this civilization.

With adequate training, the hero will be able to regain all his abilities and power that have laid dormant for the past centuries.

To prevent Aran from getting lost from his regular training in the woods, Lirin and her friends have provided Aran with a map of Rien. To travel from Rien to Victoria Island and other parts of the land, visit the Penguin Port. There are various arrows to show you the way to the harbor, just follow the arrow and you will arrive at the Penguin Port in no time.
Speak to Puro and pay a travelling fee of few hundred mesos and off you go to Victoria Island.[NPC]
Recovery of Aran’s abilities and memories would not be successful if not for the help from Lirin, Maha, Tru, and the penguins that are residing in Rien.

Maha
