Background
Kaede Honjou, better known by her alias Maple, is a girl who joined NewWorld Online (NWO) when the game was merely a month old. Out of fear of getting damaged and laziness towards evasiveness, Maple used all 100 skill points given to her at the start to maximize her vitality [VIT] stat, making her nearly invulnerable to damage in exchange for her lacking in every other stat. Kaede Honjou made use of unorthodox moves such as eating enemies and having her in-game pet turtle, Syrup, fly. Her unusual antics and her immensely-high durability made her a famous figure among players of NWO and in some cases a nuisance to game admins.
