| ~ Muse's pre-Boss dialogue |
Muse (ミューズ, Myūzu) is the final member of Gwenhwyfar's team, with Mayu and Astraea. Prior to her involvement in SAOF Arena, she is a performer and an idol.
Appearance[]
Muse retains her ALO avatar's physical appearance, with long pink hair tied to twin tails, and pink-violet eyes. As an idol, she is dressed in decorated and frilly set of clothes, a black choker, red gloves, a red skirt and differently paired high socks, along with a pair of red and black heels.
She is always seen carrying a mic-like staff all the time, which she uses as a weapon and to amplify the power of her voice and song. This also acts as the sheath of her secondary weapon, a rapier used for close combat.
Alternate[]
Rockstar!Muse
- Rockstar: Muse ditches the silly frills and goes for leathers and belts, dyeing her hair in pink shades. She sports a military cap with black rabbit ears sticking out of the top, even matching it with an iron cross ornament. She wears a corset-like sleeveless shirt with pink decorations, and black arm wraps that only go for one fourth of her entire arm length. Her skirt is layered in fabrics of pink and black, and she wears a pair of thigh-high socks and matching shoes.
Playstyle[]
Muse is mainly a support and healer, providing ranged damage and skills that can debuff enemies, and songs that could heal or bolster her party members and strengthen their stats. Due to this role, she stays away from the front lines and provides assistance behind the tanks.

Staff of the Siren (サイレンのスタッフ, Sairen no sutaffu) is a staff used by Muse during her entrapment in «New Alfheim Online» under the command of the «Black Sails». It was given to her by Gwenhwyfar shortly after they met, because the older deemed that her current staff is too low in level for her to join their dangerous adventure. It was a boss drop from the «Whirlpool Dragon Tyrant Quest» and had been under the Teutonic Knights' care ever since.
