Ari's the daughter of two of the head maids in the royal castle and grew up there together with Anna, who had been born in the same week as her. In fact, the king, queen, and Ari's parents had set up this to happen so their children were born together.

Taking after her parents, she also wanted to become a maid and was put solely in charge of caring for Anna. After all, Ari was the only one capable of dealing with the rebellious princess. It definitely had nothing to do with the fact that, in later years, the girl's love for Anna became more than obvious to everyone in the capital and how the entire castle was rooting for her.

Being in love with the princess also made for a complicated first meeting between her and Sophia. Thanks to Anna's fleeting crush on the blonde tiger and how there even was a brief mention of marriage between them, Ari had not been a fan of hers, to put it lightly. In fact, during their first meeting, she openly stated hating Sophia for it and also breaking Anna's heart afterward because of her reaction. Still, after the misunderstanding of Sophia being at fault, all animosities were immediately gone, resulting in the two becoming best friends.

Ari's outward personality had been heavily shaped by her hair and fur color, which made her incredibly insecure. As the only black jaguar around, she had become extremely self-conscious about her looks. She was under the impression everyone around her was secretly making fun of her for being different. Naturally, this only happened in her head because everyone was in awe of her stunning looks, and Ari only completely misunderstood their reactions. It took until Sophia for her to change because she was another unique being, a blonde tiger who loved her own special looks, as well as Ari's amazing color scheme.

Getting along with Sophia also made her get swept away by her antics rather often, as she gets influenced easily, which ended up getting them the title of the "troublemaker" duo. Oftentimes, according to Anna, they get along a little too well and cause all sorts of misunderstandings. While the princess certainly has a point, she also couldn't be further from the truth because Sophia was her biggest ally in making Ari act on her feelings for the princess, which led to them becoming a couple in the end.

Ari also allied with Maya to keep the group in check when it came to overdoing things. Lately, it was becoming too much for her, though, and the thoughts of giving up on the task are getting stronger because she isn't getting paid enough to deal with that many individuals who don't have the word "restraint" in their vocabulary.
