Lilac is a new addition to Magna AX. I wanted an investigative journalist for the story, a reporter tired of writing sensationalist content and passionate about pursuing the truth. I thought to myself, what if a character wanted to help people but struggled to know when to use their Aura and when to use their pen? Rassius Luine inspires Lilac's name and aesthetic from the Tales of Eternia series. (Note that they share a purple color scheme & surname; Rassius also carries a flower atop his hat.)
