* Color: white
* She can speak English and broken French. She also knows a third language which she has yet to reveal on stream.
* She's the self-proclaimed "sexy representative" for VSPO EN, like how Yakumo Beni is for VSPO JP.
* For her eSports key visual, she is depicted carrying an carbine (Apex).
* On 15 October 2025, she received the nickname "Koku-nee" (こく姉, Big Sis Koku) from Japanese viewers after Vodka, a popular JP streamer and owner of the RIDDLE eSports team, started looking up VSPO! EN's members on his stream, and he initially misread Arya's family name Kuroha (黒刃) as "Kokujin".
* This is because of the kanji 黒刃 in Kuroha, where the first kanji 黒 meaning "black" (黒), is normally read "kuro" using the reading method, but it can also be read as "koku" using the method. Similarly, the second kanji 刃 meaning "blade" (刃), can also be read as "jin" in the context of names.
* Koku-nee is also a reference to "Koku-nii" (こく兄, Big Bro Koku), the nickname of fighting game pro Kokujin.

* Arya's main eSport/competitive game is Apex Legends.
* Her first FPS game is Apex Legends.

* Her highest rank is Apex Predator. Before debut, she has reached Master rank 13 times.
* On 2 August 2024, she has reached (solo) Master (after debut).
* She did a funny bit on stream during her solo climb to Master rank, where she pretended to be sick, so her random teammates would fight better and more carefully.
* On 10 May 2025, Arya reached the rank of Apex Predator in Season 25 of Apex Legends, the highest tier rank in that game. She did it again on 26 June 2025.
* On 6 October 2025, she managed to climb all the way up to Predator rank #42 on stream, which put her within the world's top 50 Apex Predators for PC and the highest ranked VSPO! member in Apex Legends as of that point.
* During Apex Season 27 she aimed to keep a rank above Apex Predator #50, reaching #28 on her last S27 ranked stream, and finishing the season at Predator #29, as seen on her badge during her Season 28 release stream.

* She is a Wraith main in Apex Legends.
* She despises the legend Mirage in Apex Legends, leading to chat teasing her with the phrase "Mirage Value" and uses him against her in viewer participation Apex games.
* She admitted that she was initially a Mirage main because his voice actor was also the voice of Sonic.
