Overview
A calm and collected pilot who quit The Guild, Sherry is an experienced pilot with excellent play versatility. Sporting an HP stat of 5, a neutral REC stat, and above-average stats in ATK, DEF, and EVD, Sherry boasts a superior stat total to most of the cast that is only matched by fellow aviator and . Consequently, these stats enable Sherry to play either aggressively or defensively depending on the situation. Sherry should have little difficulty either defending or evading on 
Encounter panels and KOing the opponent in response. She also shouldn't have much trouble surviving bosses. This can be beneficial over time as Sherry can potentially transition between wins and stars norma as needed based on the direction of the game. The most unusual aspect of Sherry, however, is her passive ability. In any combat Sherry enters, she will always be the defender and attack second. While this may not seem like an advantage on paper, it provides Sherry with utility not available to other characters. On Encounter and 
Boss panels (and against Bounty Hunt monsters), cards that can only be used when the player is defending can always be used, providing a massive boost to the player's survival potential. These battle cards are 
Shield Counter, 
Shield, 
Tactical Retreat, and 
Freight. (Even though Bounty Hunt monsters impose a 
Final Battle-like effect, Shield Counter will end the battle after its effect.) Similarly, these cards can be used to counter opponent's Hyper cards late-game and can also be used to purposely land on a 
Home panel by attacking and then ending the battle.
Sherry is not without flaw, however. Despite her strong stats, her passive can be troublesome. Since Sherry will more or less always attack second, she will always be prone to taking damage in combat. If an opponent rolls well, Sherry will be at risk of being KO'd before she can retaliate. An opponent with 1 HP maybe even be able to KO her before she can attack. This can be particularly problematic against bosses at 1 HP, given that they often roll incredibly powerful numbers that could very easily KO the player, even from full HP. Similarly, if the player is particularly unlucky, other players may be able to KO Sherry, as a result of her passive. Another disadvantage of Sherry is that her Hyper has very limited use.
