She is the Captain of the Royal Guard of Arba.
Description[edit]
Battle plans be dashed! By the time they are laid out, count on Aurora to have flung herself into the fray, steel drawn! Some may call this lady of action brash or even quick-tempered, but make no mistake, she will protect the kingdom no matter what may come!
Aurora is a spirited soldier with a flair for fast-packed ice attacks. Her impressive speed and remarkable reach make her an asset in any battle. Her Cold Fission attack unleashes a wintry whirlwind that swallows up whole swathes of foes. Aim it at large groups of enemies!

Other Appearances[edit]
Dragon Quest Heroes II: Twin Kings and the Prophecy's End[edit]
Aurora appears in Dragon Quest Heroes II as a recurring character that can be played as in co-op dungeons, but is unable to be used in the regular story mode. Aurora's moveset is mostly unchanged from the previous game, however Zoom was replaced with Helm Splitter due to the former being repurposed for Wild Zone traversal. Additionally she is unable to equip any weapons or shields, being locked to the Captain's rapier & Aurora's shield, though she can still equip Orbs and accessories. Having save data from the previous title grants Aurora costumes for this game's female protagonists.
