Ainar, second daughter of Fenelin(아이나르 프넬린) is a major supporting character of the Surviving the Game as a Barbarian series.
She is a barbarian and a comrade of Bjorn Yandel.
APPEARANCE[]
Ainar Fenelin is a young barbarian woman reaching a height 6'5". She has a very defined and a heavy muscular build. She has braided blonde hair, left down roughly and gold eyes. As is customary among barbarian warriors, tatoos are covering the skin of her upper body.
After the consumption of the Bone Knight Essence, her size shrinks but also her bone structure in general. Arua Raven claims that Ainar became "very pretty" and asks herself if the essence can be commercialized to nobles for cosmetic purposes, she is even ready to do researchs on the essence's effects back in Rafdonia. According to Bjorn, she looks more like a tall human woman now than a female barbarian warrior if the tatoos on her upper body were disregarded.[3]

PERSONALITY[]

She takes great pride in her barbarian origin and desires to be acknowledged by the tribe as an accomplished warrior. But because of her gender, she has the impression warriors looks down at her and it became a kind of inferiority complex for her. The consumption of the bone knight's essence aggravates her low self-esteem.
After her first exploration in the labyrinth, she starts to grow wary of humans in general and she prefers to adopt an aggressive stance in front of them to avoid ill-natured individuals.
ABILITIES[]
Overall Abilities[]
Physical Abilities: As a barbarian, Ainar is stronger, tougher and more resilient than other races without essences. She is supposed to be a good armed fighter, as she was the only one to defeat and present a challenge to Bjorn when he was training with the barbarians.

Ainar wields a two-handed great sword. Thanks to her barbarian attributes, she takes advantage of her extraordinary physique to overpower her enemies and subdue them.
Thanks to Bjorn's involvement, Ainar has developed a desire to learn new things and improve herself. This particular trait is what the current era barbarians lack, causing so many of them to die prematurely or fail to advance properly as explorers.

The blessing only activates after fulfilling the condition of having Maxed Favorability with one other person. This buff is most commonly activated between a man and a woman who have been together for a long time. Han-Soo considers it extremely difficult, usually softlocking around the 90% mark, only being raised via "lovey-dovey" moments at that point. This is same passive ability as the rank three monster "Ramangsis" which only appears after getting an achievement in the ninth-floor rift.[9]

The negative [Aggression] from the essence is enough to make Ainar prefer not fighting over training.
