From the perspective of other Aether Gazer Modifiers who experienced a later awakening in life, the prospect of being ripped away from everyday families to terrifying battles against Visbanes is inevitably a rather harsh and confusing experience, even if imbued with a special sense of responsibility and duty. But that clearly does not apply in Verthandi's case, who seems to have no shortage of stamina for difficult encounters of any kind. In fact, Verthandi is one of those rare individuals always full of positive energy and ready with a kind word—even at the beginning of her joining the Rookie Squad. "I work hard 'cos I'm all about protecting the world and the people I love!" Yet Verthandi's tireless optimism, inner strength, and promotion of positive vibes have been learned attributes acquired from those important to her and now she also wants to share these good qualities with others—as she tells it.

This ancient Access Key recovered from the Source Layer once had a very similar appearance to the Runic Blade, but both the sword hilt and blade have been corroded by chaotic flows. Only the inscription stone embedded in the sword retains the permissions to communicate with the world system. There appears to be a long mark scored across the inscription stone, which is engraved with ancient runic text that reads "Fate." Once activated, the stone continuously draws energy data from the surrounding area. The Cryptics decided to transform the stone into a protective shield equipped with a set of armor and an energy drainage device that can bear great pressure. The device has been adjusted to fit Verthandi's sword style preference, and effectively channels the absorbed energy to a specific area. The Rune Shield offers great protection even if the inscription stone has not yet been activated.
