Overview[]
Because she was an orphan and raised by the people of the Church, she has a lot of religious values and gratitude towards them. She likes weaponry to a fetish degree, especially her love for collecting knives and ends up hiding a lot of them at Church, although she has never had bad intentions on having them.
When she meets with Itsuki at the academy, not much is revealed in her route apart from the revealing of her love of weaponry and vague detail of her background.
The Aries Star Maiden who serves the church and teaches classes there for children. She's like a big sister the way she tends to God's Gift after his battles. She was worried the next God's Gift would be someone terrifying, but felt relief experiencing Itsuki's kindness.

Personality[]
Games[]
Arie is kind at heart, being both gentle in personality and appearance. Very kind towards the children she looks after at Church, the citizens of Granvania which has garnered their love and admiration, and even for Itsuki before she begins to develop romantic feelings towards him. Because of her religious values, Arie is a strict, but fair teacher to both her students and Itsuki. She forgives her students if they do something wrong even if she doesn't morally believe she can. She also teaches Itsuki how to train through cleaning and the benefits of service. Arie will go out of her way to accommodate anyone whom she feels would benefit from her and is extremely hard-working with any task assigned to her. This is to the point that she refuses to use Star Energy unless she is required to use it. It's also because of this upbringing and her constant tending to others that has resulted in people seeing Arie as a mother figure. When this is brought up to her, Arie will fervently deny it since she feels she is too young to be one.
It's also because of these values that she views activities and hobbies she enjoys like Classmating and collecting weapons as sinful and shames herself for enjoying them. She does eventually learn that there is nothing wrong with enjoying what she loves, although she enjoys these things to the point they cause her sexual pleasure. Despite this, Arie easily gets embarrassed when talking about her appearance or her personality, even when people compliment her. Though Arie is very easy to get along with, she tries to keep these aspects of herself a secret except to those she is close to. She only becomes hostile when trying to hide her interests from others. Arie also claims to be unable to tell lies. After Arie develops feelings for Itsuki, she eagerly desires to see him more and gets easily jealous when she believes she sees him with other women.
Anime[]
In the Conception (anime), Arie's personality remains virtually identical to her in game counterpart. Though certain events from the game may have changed, the only significant change between them is that she is shown to be a dominatrix.
