Vanessa: Dutiful Rider
Vanessa is a pegasus knight who serves Frelia, a kingdom on the continent of Magvel. She's an earnest, dependable Hero who's trusted by even the king himself.	A tactically-minded pegasus knight, Vanessa scouts out enemy forces to seize the advantage in battle. She's always looking out for her friends and will keep them safe even if it means putting herself in danger!	The person Vanessa looks up to most of all is Syrene, her older sister and fellow pegasus knight. The sight of Syrene fighting bravely has inspired her since she was a girl!	Vanessa has the strong sense of duty to confront any ordeal. I'm always counting on Alfonse myself, so maybe there's something I can learn from her!
