MapleStory M has got a brand new character added to the roster, the first original character made specifically for the mobile version.

Nexon has released a new update for MapleStory M, bringing in several events as well as an all-new original character. Sia Astelle joins the roaster as the first original character created by the team for the mobile edition of the franchise, as up until this point, they've used familiar and already established people from MapleStory over the years. Her addition also brings in multiple events for players to get in on over the next few weeks. We got all the details below per the developer's notes.

"Sia Astelle is the guardian of Oort, the home to the celestial order of stars. Her first duty is in service to the cosmos, guiding stars along their destined path. After a series of strange events occur, Sia arrives in Maple World when she is forced to leave her tranquil life on Oort behind. In addition to the new Star Guardian character, MapleStory M's latest update boasts a wide array of improvements and events to start the new year right, including max EXP stat increase from 250% to 300%, improvements to MapleStory M's end game gear Necro equipment, skill presets, and more.
