Arietta

Arietta the Wild is a antagonist in Tales of the Abyss.

Story
Arietta is a timid girl who was raised by Ligers after losing her parents to a tidal wave, which wiped out ,her homeland, the Isle of Feres. Since then, she has learned to control monsters and animals to aid her in battle and can speak the language of Ligers fluently. She also specializes in dark based fonic artes such as Bloody Howling and Negative Gate. She can also cast ,the light based fonic arte Limited ,as well as, defensive fonic artes such as Barrier and Sharpness on her monster companions in battle. Arietta was once the Fon Master Guardian of Ion, and despises Anise for "taking Ion away" from her. Arietta wishes to kill Luke's party for killing the Liger Queen early in the game, which Arietta refers to as "Mommy".

In reality, the Ion that accompanies the party is one of many replicas of the original. Arietta was not aware of this, nor of the fact that she was removed as Fon Master Guardian to keep the replica's identity secret, and Largo suggests that she would have committed suicide if she had learned of what had happened to the original Ion. Having nowhere to go, Arietta joined Van's six God-Generals. Van turned the newly-replicated Isle of Feres into Arietta's secret private boat, which was being used as a secret base to make mass amounts of replicas. Following Ion's death, Arietta blamed Anise and challenged her to a duel to the death, which she lost. Tragically, Arietta died without realizing the Ion she sought after so much was not the one she loved.

Fighting Style
Arietta has two Mystic Artes. The first is Big Bang. When she uses it, the field disappears and is replaced by a galaxy, whose core explodes with light. This damages every player character on the field, but cannot bring their HP below 1.

Arietta's second Mystic Arte is Evil Light. Arietta summons a vicious tornado of dark energy which lifts her target into the air, and then she blasts them with a ball of light that she summons with her doll.
