Character Profile
Lenneth Valkyrie
“Was I choosing souls... as though I was picking flowers?”
Class: Chooser of the Slain
Race: Aesir
Age: 23 (Midgard)
Gender: Female
Birthplace: Valhalla
Intro: One of the 3 Goddesses of Fate whose role it is to
decide a person’s fate after death.
A mid–level Goddess of the 6th rank,
her true name is Lenneth Valkyrie.
Mythology:
The Valkyrie are warlike virgins, mounted upon horses and armed with
helmets and spears. odin, who is desirous to collect a great many heroes in
Valhalla, to be able to mee the giants when the final contest must
come, sends the Valkyries down to every battlefield to make choice of those who shall be slain.
The Valkyrie are his messengers, and their name means “Choosers of the Slain.” When they ride forth on their errands, their armour
sheds a strange flickering light, which flashes up over the Northern skies, making what men call
the Aurora Borealis, or “Northern Lights.”
The name Lenneth is not actually a Valkyrie name, the only real Valkyrie
in Valkyrie Profile would be Hrist, since her name is recorded as a Valkyrie name.
Is may be that Lenneth represents the middle Norn Sister Verdandi, the Goddess of the
Present and the Goddess of Fate. There is no direct connection between the two, but since
Hrist and Silmeria seem to fit the profiles of Urd and Skuld, it would seem likely that Lenneth
is like Verdandi. Valkyrie is a combination of the cold battle maiden Hrist, and the romantic
Silmeria, making her the more stable Valkyrie and most likely the one that is trusted by Odin
most.
Indepth:
Before becomming a Goddess, Lenneth’s real name was Platina. She lived in a poor
village, and her parents were going to sell her to slave traders in order to make
money. However, she escaped the village with her childhood love: Lucian.
They escaped the village and entered Weeping Lilly Meadow, a dangerous place with
poisonous pollen. Once Plantina was poisoned, she died in Lucian’s arms and was
taken to Valhalla by Odin. Together with Freya, Odin sealed Platina̱s memories
and trained her to be a Warrior Valkyrie. When she’s not needed, she is put into
a long sleep. After her awakening, she is ordered to go down to Midgard and collect souls
as warriors for the Aesir (the Gods), in order to win the battle of Ragnarok. During her
travels she meets Lucian again, and something inside her tells her that she remembers
something. She sends Lucian to Asgard, but before he goes up, he asks to be taken back
to the village where he grew up with Platina. She agrees, and Lucian takes her to see
all the places that they saw when they ran away as children. Then they come upon the
Weeping Lilly Meadow where Platina died. She did not really know why, but something inside
Lenneth felt different, and she kissed Lucian before he was sent to Asgard. Not long after that,
Lucian is killed by Loki, who uses Lucian’s desire to see Lenneth and coerces him into
using the Water Mirror. Before that happens, Lucian sends Lenneth one of Platina’s earrings,
and tells Lenneth to go look for the other one. At first Lenneth is angry because Lucian used
such a holy device to send an earring, but when she hears of Lucian’s death, she is greatly
troubled. She travels to the Weeping Lilly Meadow and finds Platina’s other earring. All of
her memories come back now, and the seal that Odin and Freya put on her breaks. However, instead of
Lenneth being free, her soul is replaced by that of Hrist, her older sister, as a safety precaution
by Freya. Lenneth is now trapped in her own body and cannot manifest herself. When Hrist tries to
kill Arngrim and Mystina, Lenneth’s spirit breaks free and she puts her spirit between Hrist
and her friends. Lenneth’s soul is then shattered, but Mystina saves her by crystalizing her
soul’s fragments. Lezard transfers the remainders of her soul to a homonculus, a man made lifeform,
and then travels to Brahm’s castle in order to find Hrist and bring back Lenneth’s original
vessel. After having beaten Hrist, Lezard and Mystina take the soul and vessel and merge them as one again.
Lenneth is now back to normal, but her human memories all come back, and she is left in dispair about her
true reason for existance and her grief for Lucian becomes overwhelming. She travels to Asgard for answers,
only to find that Valhalla has already been destroyed by Loki and his minions. After talking to Frei,
she goes to see Freya. She is enraged about Freya’s reluctance to help the people in Midgard, and
doesn’t understand why the Goddess of Love can be so heartless and devoid of human emotion.
She then leaves to find Loki, the creature that caused the death of the only man she can love. Her
fusion with the homonculus from Lezard gave Lenneth the power of Creation, and after the battle with
Loki, in which she slew him, she was able to restore all the worlds to their former glory. The world
was reborn, the Valkyrie became the Lord of Creation, and Lucian was there again by her side, to be
happy for eternity.

Arngrim
“Lombert! I’m going to kill you!”
Class: Heavy Knight/Merc
Race: Human
Age: 26
Gender: Male
Birthplace: Artolia
Intro: A mercenary from the Artolia region.
Blessed with a true warrior’s prowess
and a good measure of luck, his sword–fighting
technique is unmatched. In battle, he fights as a demon
possessed, slicing through foes like a scythe through ripe
wheat.
Indepth:
After saving his platoon from being destroyed by monsters,
Arngrim is rewarded by the King. But Arngrim doesn’t want
the King’s petty gifts and makes a fool out of him, angering
the young Princess Jelanda. A few days later, Arngrim is hired by
someone from the Assassins guild to deliver some cargo to Villnore.
Not knowing what the cargo is, Anrgrim accepted the mission for a high
price. During the mission, they are caught by Artolian Knights who want to
inspect the cargo; which turns out to be the unconscious Princess Jelanda herself!
The Knights gave her a potion that was given to them by Minister Lombert, however,
the potion turned out to be Ghoulpowder, which turns humans into screeching demons.
Minister Lombert was playing two hands: he was working as a Villnore spy, hoping
to deliver the Princess to the enemy, if the mission was a success, no problem,
but if the cargo was stopped, Lombert made sure they would use the potion on the Princess;
resulting in the death of all. Arngrim is saved by Lenneth and Freya, and then returns
to Castle Artolia, looking for Lombert. No soldier is able to stand before Arngrim
as he marches towards his target. But Lombert’s magic is too powerful and Arngrim
doesn’t stand a chance alone. Luckily, Lenneth and Freya come once again to slay
the evil Necromancer. Lenneth then gives Arngrim an option to redeem himself and come
with her to Valhalla to fight for the Gods. Arngrim kills himself and his soul is taken
by Lenneth.
Arngrim has a younger brother called Roland, who appears to be disabled and can hardly walk.
After Arngrim’s death, Roland is thrown in prison. Arngrim is also good friends with
Lawfer and Kashell, who are also Artolian Knights. Later on in the story, Arngrim is
rejected by Freya to become an Einherjar, and is forced to remain with Lenneth. Together
with Mystina and Lezard, Arngrim fights against Hrist to recover Valkyrie’s body and
return her spirit.

Goddess Freya
“Fate can indeed be a cruel mistress...”
Class: Giver of Life
Race: Aesir
Age: 26 (Midgard)
Gender: Female
Birthplace: Valhalla
Intro: Venerated as the Goddess of Fertility, Freya appears as a
beautiful young blonde woman. However, she is second only
to Odin in terms of true power, commanding power
over Life as well as Death.
Mythology:
Goddess of fertility and love. She is the patron Goddess of crops and birth, the symbol
of sensuality and was called upon in matters of love. She loves music, spring and flowers,
and is particularly fond of the elves. She was originally one of the Vanir. She was the daughter of
Njord, and the younger sister of Frey. her daughters, by Od, are named Hnoss, who is so
beautiful that whatever is valuable and love is named “treasure” after her,
and Gersemi. She had a husband named Od, whom she lost and cried golden tears for. Many believe
that Od is actually Odin. She lived in Castle Folkvang and each day chose half of the slain warriors to split
with Odin. She owns Hildesvini (battle boar) which is actually her human lover Ottar in
disguise. In her Castle, love songs are always played, and her hall, Sessrumnir is where
woman go when they die. Her chariot was drawn by male cats and she owned the precious
Brisings’ necklace, which she aquired by having sex with four dwarfs. She also used
a feather coat to change into a falcon and fly between the clouds. Some sources say that
Friday is named after her.
Indepth:
Freya controls the supply on Einherjar that is used for the coming war with the Vanir. She
is Lenneth’s boss and regularly gives her missions and requirements. Freya is feared for
her power, and occasionaly travels to Midgard if something needs to be done firmly. When Loki
takes the Dragonorb and kills Lucian, Freya is suspicious about Loki’s explanation.
However, Odin does not want her involved, and Freya is powerless to do anything, which ultimately
leads to the death of Odin. See is seen in the Palace of the Dragon to cast judgement on Gandar
but she is probably also there to see if Loki had been there. When Loki attacks Valhalla, Freya
stands between him and Odin. However Odin does not want her involved again, so she is forced to
watch the battle in which Odin dies. The difference between Freya and Lenneth is that Freya is unable
to care or cry for the misery of those in Midgard. Her status as a Goddess and her heritage as a Vanir
changed her way of feeling, and her feelings cannot be considered human like Lenneth’s.

Jelanda
“10,000 deaths are not good enough for you!”
Class: Soceress/Princess
Race: Human
Age: 14
Gender: Female
Birthplace: Artolia
Intro: First Princess of Artolia.
Behind her pure, sweet image lies a pampered princess
with a heart of steel and a razor–sharp tongue.
Indepth:
Jelanda has a hard time coping with the pressure of being royalty, and often gets enraged
when things don’t go well. When the Mercenary Arngrim insulted her father publicly,
she devised a scheme to punish him. She disguised herself as one of the Assassin’s
guild’s proprietors, and went to see Arngrim about a contract. She didn’t plan
her actions too well though, and she passed out from the Sake she drank at the restaurant.
When Arngrim took her to his house, her hat fell off and her sleep–talking betrayed
her indentity. Arngrim didn’t do anything, and Jelanda left the next morning to think
of something else.
However, the Minister Lombert was a spy for the rival nation Villnore, and he had the Princess
drugged and shipped out by two mercenaries to be brought to Villnore. The carriage however,
was discovered by Artolian Knights. To make sure that nobody would survive in case the
mission went wrong, Lombert had given the Knights a potion to use for if the Princess was
unconscious. The potion however, was Ghoulpowder that turned Jelanda into a demon. She
was killed by Lenneth and Freya, and her soul was taken to Asgard where she became an
Einherjar.

Belenus
“How is choosing a servant any different from picking a flower? Being picked was this flower’s destiny.”
Class: Swordsman/Headguard
Race: Human
Age: 37
Gender: Male
Birthplace: Gerabellum
Intro: A nobleman holding a high office in Gerabellum. With his power of leadership he earned the
loyalty of knights and commoners alike. He stands for fairness and justice in a corrupt and decadent
system.
Indepth:
Belenus was part of the Garabellium army that waged war against Artolia. While living in Lassen, his father
was killed in battle, and sometime later his wife also died. When he was young, his maid Maria had brought
home a young Yamato servant called Asaka, and although he was scolded, Maria and Belenus were allowed to educate and
raise her in the mansion. Over time, it is possible that Belenus fell in love with Asaka. After his wife’s
death, a vampire puts a curse on the household and kills Asaka. Belenus is too late to stop it from
hapenning, and asks Lenneth if there is anything he can do. In order to save Asaka, he gives his own soul
to Lenneth. When Asaka rises from the dead, Belenus is now part of the Einherjar.
According to the game, the vampire was sent by a certain Lady Beliza. There is no idication in the rest
of the game that she is an enemy or even a real character. It could be that she is Belenus’ dead
wife, who turned into an undead and is now taking the lives of others. Since Belenus loves Asaka, it
might be the reason why she was killed and not Belenus. Wether or not this is true is just speculation.
Voice Actor: Ed Paul
Llewelyn
“I will always be watching over you...”
Class: Archer/Soldier
Race: Human
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Birthplace: Crell Monferaigne
Intro: A gentle, young man from Crell Monferaigne pressed into military service by his
fanatical and self–righteous country. It is a tragedy that such a peaceful soul
should be sent to his death on the fields of battle.
Indepth:
Although he was determined to come home safely from the war, Llewelyn was not
cut out to be a soldier, and only an empty coffin was returned in the end. His true love, Millia
was left all alone from then on. Before leaving for the war, Millia had taken him to the forest
to listen to the rustling leaves. “When the wind blows just right, it sounds like waves lapping
on a shore.” She said, knowing that Llewelyn would be sent to sea. After his death, Millia’s
mother wanetd to arrange a marriage for her, but she would not go through with it, because she would
never betray her love for Llewelyn. Before going off to serve Lenneth as an Einherjar, Llewelyn appears
to Millia in the forest, and promises to watch over her forever.

Lawfer
“Father...I’m glad you gave me a name that starts with “law”. Although
it might not be the kind of law my father intended.”
Class: Spearman/Knight
Race: Human
Age: 20
Gender: Male
Birthplace: Artolia
Intro: A young soldier from Artolia following in the footsteps of his knightly father. From
a noble lineage, Lawfer had to fight against the expectations placed on him as well as struggling
to compete with the more skilled Arngrim.
Indepth:
A friend of Kashell, Celia and Arngrim, as well as the young son of a repected Knight Captain.
When Arngrim killed Lombert, Lawfer’s father tried to reason with him, but Arngrim did not
raise a sword against him and committed suicide. Apparently, Lawfer and Arngrim had been students
under Lawfer’s father for quite some time. Though skilled, he is not up to Arngrim’s
level of fighting and continues to put himself down.
After Arngrim’s death, Lawfer questions the events that took place, and takes pity for the
young Roland, whom is now imprisoned due to his brother’s actions. He talks to Celia and
Kashell before he goes on a mission, though it is not really clear what his mission is. I suspect
that he freed Roland, and then committed suicide, but that will remain a mystery since the last
part of his story is completely missing.
On a different note, Lawfer is one of the most popular bishounen
from Valkyrie Profile, and the story slightly hints to him having strong feelings towards Arngrim.
I guess it is left to the player’s imgination as to what those feelings are.
Voice Actor: Adam Blauestein
Nanami
“What can one do when one loses what matters most?”
Class: Sorceress/Maiden
Race: Human
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Birthplace: Hai–lan
Intro: After both her parents died, she was adopted by a Shinto priest and chosen to inherit
the shrine duties. Her upbringing has left her honest and self–sacrificing, but also
fatalistic and resigned to the vicissitudes of fate.
Indepth:
Nanami was adopted when the daughter of the Shinto priest, Minayo had already died. Nanami inherited
Minayo’s duties, and also learned that she would have to perform the ritual of ascension in order
to inherit the family’s true power. However, she is not of the same blood, and she has no hope of
being able to perform the ritual and live to tell the tale. When confronted with the spirit of Minayo
in the Dragon Cave, Nanami begs Lenneth to allow her to take Minayo’s place, so that Minayo could
inherit the power that is rightfully hers. Thus Lenneth took her soul, and placed Minayo’s soul
in Nanami’s body.

sad and tragic life.

with the ability to turn into a mermaid at will. The Yamato had been at war with the merfolk for
many years, and during one of their sea battles, the ship with Rijun Koh went under. He was taken
in by the Merfolk, and there he met Yumei’s mother. He returned to Hai–Lan years later
and made peace with the Merfolk.
After Rijun Koh left, Yumei’s mother was ostracised by the members of her people, and she was
forced to live in disgrace because she wed a human. After her mother’s death, Yumei was ignored
and hurt by the other Merfolk, and because of that she wanted to find her father. Posing as a
shipwrecked girl, Yumei is picked up by Fuyuki and his father, who are both fishermen. With
Fuyuki’s help, Yumei learns of her father’s death, and she is now in search of the
Cerulean Lapis; a gem that can make any wish come true. But she gave up hope that she would find it,
and while the sea turns into a nasty storm, she leaves behind Fuyuki to go home. But Fuyuki’s
desire to help Yumei calls on the power of the Lapis, and he is granted one wish. Instead of wishing
for his own hapiness, he thought of the wish that Yumei would make: to be with her father and mother
again. In doing so, Fuyuki wished for their unison, and Yumei died peacefully. The wish was granted
by the Lady Valkyrie, Yumei would go to Valhalla and be with her parents in harmony once again.

In order to cure the blindness of his sister Ai, Jun went to the Dragonwick caves to fight an Ogre
there. But the Ogre was merely a reflection of his own soul, and he was taken over by the own
darkness of his soul. As the Ogre, he killed anyone who came near him and robbed them of their eyes,
in order to make a cure for his sister Ai. He eventually cures her, but he is slain by Valkyrie
in the dark cave, and thus the price he paid for his sister’s hapiness was his own life.
But did regaining her eyesight really give her as much hapiness as Jun thought it would?

One of the friends of Lawfer and Celia, a goodhearted and righteous man who travels to Camille
Village to cure the people from their petrification. The people were petrified because a Medusa
took over the village. When Celia and Kashell come to the village, the door to the village
temple is sealed off by an ancient sword. After removing the sword, they find a little
petrified girl standing next to a table with demonic inscriptions. The girl must have unknowingly
released the Meduse from its chains, and brought untold disaster to the village. When Kashell and
Celia try to rescue the girl and cure her outside the village, the Medusa appears and kills Kashell
with one blow. The vile with the cure almost drops to the floor, but Lenneth catches it in mid air,

be a powerful sorcerer. From the sound of it, Aelia is friends with Celia and a few others, who are after
Grey for the death of a woman called Lemia. She is captured by Gandar however, and is subjected to
subjugation spells and torture. Her strong will keeps her from swaying under his might, but she eventually
dies when Gandar puts a powerful spell on her. She bargains with Lenneth, and agrees to become an Einherjar

Dragonians, but that is unknown.
Voice Actor: Veronica Taylor
Janus
“I did not run from my duty.”
Class: Archer
Race: Human
Age: 40
Gender: Male
Birthplace: Crell Monferaigne
Intro: A knight of Crell Monferaigne, he was chosen to perform an assasination due to his
skill. When it went public, he scarificed himself rather than betray his country, but his sacrifice
was met with contempt from his compatriots.
Indepth:
Janus was forced to flee the city and live in exile for ten years for carrying out a successful
assasination mission. He remained silent when questioned about the murder, and was therefore
unable to remain in Crell Monferaigne. He joined the Knights for the honor of his father, and for
his hapiness he would follow any of the King’s orders, even if it meant unhapiness for himself.
He returned after ten years, because he was worried about his father. When the news that Janus was in
town reached the castle, they lured Janus into a trap. Hoping to be reinstated as a Knight, Janus
falls for the ploy and is shot in the back by Ernest. After his death, his altruistic attitude
earns the respect of Lenneth, who uses him as an Einherjar.

Academy, but she had trouble with them both. After many arguements, Lorenta was forced to expell
Lezard from the Academy. On her 36th Birthday though, many years after the incident, Lorenta’s
husband was kidnapped by Lezard, and he lured Lorenta to his tower. Using a ghoul powder, Lezard
changed Lorenta’s husband into a Demon, for the sole purpose of luring Lenneth to his tower.
Because of the love that Lorenta has for her husband, the power of her soul was enough to draw
Lenneth to the scene. Lorenta was killed by her own husband, but she did not forsake him by killing
him first. As a reward, Lenneth took her soul with her, granting her a new life in Valhalla as
a warrior of the Gods.

homonculi in his tower, and is disgusted when she sees the younger vessels. She transfers one into
crystal form and takes it home with her. Lezard vists her, and explains that he has found the
Philosopher’s Stone, a ten–billion page codex containing all the knowledge of the world.
Mystina is intrested in Lezard’s plans to become a God, but she desires only to receive the
knowledge of the Gods and travel to Bifrost, the rainbow bridge. While Mystina is out in spirit form,
Lezard goes to her house and freezes her Cryo–machine, trapping her spirit outside her body.
Lenneth accepts her spirit and takes Mystina with her, knowing that she would never be an Einherjar.
Mystina is one of the people seen with Hrist in the past, and she later travels with Arngrim and Brahms
to get Lenneth’s body and soul back. Mystina resents Lezard, and Lezard fears her power.

“I don’t want to be left alone again...”
Class: Swordsman
Race: Human
Age: 19
Gender: Male
Birthplace: Villnore
Intro: A young man from a poor village in the Villnore Region. Haunted for years by the
tragic death of his childhood girlfriend, he sees the vestiges of her in the Valkyrie.
Strong in battle, but lacking the true spirit of a hero.
Indepth:
Before coming to Gerabellum, Lucian lived in Coriander Village with Platina. When he heard that mysterious
men came to Platina’s house, he kidnapped her because he was afraid that her parents would sell
her to slave traders. They fled the village, and ended up in Weeping Lilly Meadow. The pollen from the
flowers poisoned Platina, and because she was already weak, she went to sleep and died. Lucian burried her
there, and moved to Gerabellum. There, he was taken in by Mrs.Dolce, who raised orphans as her foster children.
But times were hard, and she was unable to support them with the money she had, so Lucian and his friends
started to pick pockets and scam people for money. He found a new girlfriend Claire, but he was always thinking
of Platina, even if he would not admit it. One day, one of his friends Garren picked the pocket of a
nobleman, and he was tortured to death for it. If that wasn’t enough, the nobility sent the army
to wipe out the thieves, but it was merely an excuse to get rid of the slums. They were killing kids and
elderly people indiscrimately, and eventually they shot Lucian as well.
In Asgard, Lucian hears the truth about Lenneth from the Goddess Frei, and Loki tells him that even
if there is no way to contact Platina, Lucian could contact Lenneth by using the Water Mirror. Lucian
did so, and he sent Lenneth on of Platina’s earrings. However, Lokie only used Lucian as an excuse
to steal the Dragon Orb from Odin and send it to Midgard with the Water Mirror. In order to shift blame,
Loki kills Lucian and reports a false incident to Odin. Later, after Lenneth kills Loki and restores
Asgard, Lucian is brought back to life.

the ritual of Soul Trasder, he tried tosave her by the same law, but his prayers went unanswered
and his soul was set free.

Grey mourned her death so much that he sacrificed his own soul to get Lemia back. However the Soul
Tranfer cannot be done twice, and thus Grey tried to defile the laws of the Gods. Grey is eventually
taken by Lenneth to be judged.

Badrach
“Am I a fool?”
Class: Archer/Thief
Race: Human
Age: 40
Gender: Male
Birthplace: Villnore
Intro:
A thief who works alone, having refused to enter the Thieves’ Guild. His power is unquestionable,
but his unique ability to make enemies makes him unpopular. He has a notorious weakness for women
and drink.
Indepth:
Badrach was hired once to kidnap and escort Princess Jelanda to Villnore. The operation was a failure
and Jelanda died during the mission, sending Badrach fleeing with his tail between his legs. Even though
he is a popular thief, his attitude towards the Guild and hin unwillingness to pay the comissions eventually
lead to his death. He stumbles back to the Villnore Inn after being mortally wounded by an assasin.
There, the Lady Valkyrie comes to claim his soul, however, it was not Odin who wanted his soul, but Hel
the Queen of Nifleheim. In order to save his soul, Badrach has to dig deep into his memories to find
something good in himself. He once saved a young slave from being sold off, and he returned her to the
Orphanage in Villnore. Lenneth has pity for Badrach, and allows him to come with her and fight for
the Gods.

Lyseria
“Will you be the one to extinguish my pain and sadness?”
Class: Sorceress/Seeress
Race: Human
Age: Unknown
Gender: Female
Birthplace: Unknown
Intro:
A woman born with the power of prophecy. It is rumored that she is a decendant of the Vanir
Goddess Mimir. She despises her own power and sealed it away within herself.
Indepth:
Not much is known about Lyseria. At one point in the war against the Vanir, Odin decides that he needs
the help pf Lyseria, and sends Lenneth to Midgard to retrieve her soul. Because she feared her own
power, she killed herself and sealed her power in a crystal. When Lenneth arrives, she releases
the seal on Lyseria and tells her that Odin needs her. Lyseria longs for a way to ease her suffering,
the pain that her powers has caused her. She attacks Lenneth, is slain, and then taken inside of
Lenneth and preserved as an Einherjar.
Mythology:
Mimir is actually the Vanir God of Wisdom. For some reason in Valkyrie Profile, Mimir is referred to
as a Goddess (just like Frei is actually Freya’s brother in Mythology and not her sister. Mimir
also made the Well of Mimir. When Odin drank from the Well, he became the wisest of all the Gods.
In exchange for his Wisdom, Odin had to give one of his eyes to Mimir as compensation. Later when Mimir
was killed and decapitated, Odin kept the head of Mimir in Asgard and consulted it when faced
with decisions.

Indepth:
Suo was one the Samurai that attacked Hai–Lan and the one that found the Songstress Shiho.
After Shiho was killed by his superior, Suo starts to question his own existance. While on aother
mission to a village, Suo becomes lost in thought. The missionw as to occupy a village with warriors
supposedly disguised as non–combatants. When he is confronted with his own actions, he cries out
to Shiho to help him, but he is all alone. Suo was so lost in thought that he was killed by one of the
villagers that was defending his family. When Lenneth asks him what happened, he says that he could
no longer be the person he became, slaughtering innocent women and children; killing the people he swore
to protect. For this, he is made an Einherjar.

Race: Human
Age: 67
Gender: Male
Birthplace: Villnore
Intro:
A sorcerer in the employ of the Villnore ARmy. Crafty and amitious, his path to power is lined with
corpses. He is a classic villian in every sense but his power is unrivalled. He prides himself on
having never lost a battle.
Indepth:
Gandar is seen earlier in the game looking for the Dragon Orb. During his search, he
finds out about Aelia, the young Dragoon, and captures her for questioning. His magic is not powerful
enough to get the truth out of Aelia, and instead of stopping, he kills her when he goes overboard with
his pursuasion spells. This is the first time Lenneth encounters him. After Loki stole the Dragon Orb
in Asgard, he also went to the Dragon Palace in Midgard to steal the Dragon Orb there. Gandar is also
there, but he is too late as the Dragon Orb was already gone. Gandar is met by both Freya and Lenneth,
and Freya orders Lenneth to execute Gandar, but to preserve his soul in order to keep him as a warrior
for the Gods. Though reluctant, he finds it to be a better alternative than to be tortured for eternity
in Niflheim.

Lezard Valleth
“You don’t believe me? Come come now, do we really have the time for quarrels among friends?”
Class: Sorcerer/Necromancer
Race: Human
Age: 24
Gender: Male
Birthplace: Flenceburg
Intro:
He is an accomplished Alchemist as well as a practicioner in the dark art of Necromancy. Behind his placid facade
lies a mad genius who feels that all others are merely pawns to be played on his own handcrafted chessboard.
Indepth:
After being expelled from the Flenceburg Magic Academy, Lezard started his own research. He became
particularly interested in the Gods and the Elves. He searched a long time and eventually found the
Philosopher’s stone, a stone that is said to contain all the wisdom of the world. However, the
stone is really a ten billion page codex that must be read. In doing so, Lezard was able to master
ancient Magicks, disspell Runes and command the art of Necromancy. He used his old teacher Lorenta as
a bait for his new plan. He turned her husband into a Demon and had him kill her to lure the Lady
Valkyrie. He wanted to make a homonculus, a mand made lifeform for Lenneth, so that he could help
her become stronger. However Lenneth is furious and defeats Lezard; she also destroys the homoculi
in Lezard’s Tower. Later on though, when Lenneth is replaced by Hrist and her soul is shattered,
Lezard urges Mystina to freeze her soul temporarily untill they can do a soul transfer. The only suitable
vessel for Lenneth though is the homonculus that Mystina had stolen from Lezard before. This is only temporary
though, and Lenneth’s real vessel had to be brought back. Lezard accompanied Arngrim and Mystina
to get the vessel back from Hrist. After defeating her, they bring back the vessel and merge it with the
Lenneth in the homonculus. The result though, was that Lenneth’s human blood was now mixed with that
of the Elves and the Aesir, making her incredibly powerful. Eventually, because of this, Lenneth learns the
power of creation, and restores the world from its ashes. Lezard had already gotten rid of his human body
and still has his eye set on one day having Lenneth as his own Goddess of Love...

Odin
“Ragnarok, the end of the world, is drawing near.”
Class: All–father
Race: Half human, half Aesir
Age: Unknown
Gender: Male
Birthplace: Valhalla
Intro:
A father to all Aseir Gods who attempt to govern the world. He learned that Ragnarok, the end of the
cosmos, would occur because of battles between Vanir Gods and Aseir Gods. Because of this, he made an
order to Valkyrie to collect human souls who have enough capacity to support Odin’s military
troops for his preparation for the Sacred War. He is equipped with the divine spear Gugnir which is
said to give its master, the ability to accumulate an overwhelming army force which will give him a
significant advantage in the final battle with Surt, King of the Vanir Gods. Freya, Valkyrie and his
other enemies are merely pieces of a board game.
Mythology: Odin, the father of all Aesir Gods, created the human world Midgard and the human
race with his two brothers. He is called Wodan in Germanic (Tutonic) mythology, and is the husband
of Freya, and also the lover of Skadi, Freya’s stepmother. Odin was a God of battle, and was known
to be quite fierce. He made men into berserkers, and waged many wars agains the Vanir and the Giants.
His quest for knowledge was quiete extreme, he hung himself from his spear on the World Tree Yggdrasil
to learn about the ancient Runes, and he offered one of his eyes to Mimir, the God of Wisdon, in order
get a drink of the Well of Wisdom. His wisdom was enough for him to become the ruler of all Gods.
He ruled from the great halls in Valhalla, the place where all the men chosen by the Valkyries would go
after their death, all women would go to Freya’s hall. Odin was a might spear, Gugnir that never
misses a target, and a ring called Draupnir, which made golden eggs. He rides an eight–legged
horse called Sleipnir, which was in fact the child of Loki and a mysthical giant horse. He had two
ravens, Hugin and Munin, that flew out every day to report on what is happening in Midgard and the
other worlds. Odin is a rather feared deity, and is often represented as a somber old man rather than
a vigorous young God will great power. Odin is not worshipped much by the common folk, and even
Vikings prefer Odin’s son Thor because of his power. Odin is destined to die at Ragnarok, the
end of the World.
Indepth:
Odin does not appear that much in the game. At the end of the game, when Loki steals the Dragonorb
and starts the attack on Asgard, starting Ragnarok, Odin battles with Loki. However, just like in
Mythology, Odin dies in that battle.
Voice Actor: Ken Gates
Loki
“I believe that this next era will not be governed by power alone, but by justice. And yet, for the meting out of justice, power is required...”
Class: Low Level God
Race: Half Aesir, half Vanir
Age: Unknown
Gender: Not fixed
Birthplace: Valhalla
Intro: A low rank god that was born as a cross between the Aesir Gods and their enemies, the
Vanir Gods. Because of his blood, both Gods regard him as heretical and disfavor him. What can he do?
He is innocent, even if his birth itself was a sin. Since being under the control of Odin, he has
started to brighten up. However, we wonder if he is really himself, or if he has disguised himself in
order to hide his true feelings. The harmful acts which the gods did to him are too serious to be
forgiven.
Mythology: Loki is a rather complicated figure in Mythology. He is often seen as the cruel
jester who gets the Gods in trouble. During his travels with both Odin and his son Thor, Loki came
into many difficult situations. Often times, he would have to do something for the Giants, but his
loyalty to the Aesir would force him to trick the Giants. Because of this, many of the giants were
killed, including the father of Skadi, who later wed Njord, the father of Freya. Loki is therefore the
instigator of many problems, but also the one who solves it and saves the day. He also aquires many
artifacts and items for the Gods. He got the hammer Myolnir for Thor, the spear Gugnir for Odin, and the
Golden Boar for Freya. Even Odin’s ring Draupnir was given to him by Loki, whom had won it from
a dwarf. His ability to change shapes and genders has allowed him to peform many feats oh heroism,
but it also lead to many problems and many unsuspected changes.
Loki himself is the father, and mother of many mythical beings. He had two sons with his wife Sigyn, Nare and Vale,
and he had thee children with the Giantess Angrboa: Fenrir, Jormungandr and Hel. He has also conceived
a foal with the stallion Svailfare, Sleipnir, and lastly he has given birth to the giantess Hyndla
after having eaten the burnt heart of a dead woman. Fenrir, a wolf, played an important part in the
last battle between the Aesir and the Vanir. Hel became Goddess of the Underworld and collects and
army of undead to wage war against the Gods. Jormungandr the snake bites his own tail at the end of
the world, and stands for cosmological order.
Indepth:
Loki is the one who kills Lucian and then steals the Dragonorb from Valhalla; hiding it on Midgard
through the use of the Water Mirror. Odin has no proof that Loki was involved with the disappearance
of the Dragonorb, because Loki blames Lucian. Loki then goes to Surt, lord of the Vanir to offer his
power. Surt however refuses to ally himself with Loki and his demons. Loki kills Surt and then starts
the attack on Asgard. He kills Odin in a duel and then retreats. When confronted with Lenneth,
Loki’s body and soul are forever torn asunder as she unleashes her rage upon on him.

Hrist
“You will obey me now.”
Class: Chooser of the Slain
Race: Aesir
Age: Unknown
Gender: Female
Birthplace: Valhalla
Mythology: The Valkyrie are warlike virgins, mounted upon horses and armed with
helmets and spears. odin, who is desirous to collect a great many heroes in
Valhalla, to be able to mee the giants when the final contest must
come, sends the Valkyries down to every battlefield to make choice of those who shall be
slain.
The Valkyrie are his messengers, and their name means
“Choosers of the Slain.” When they ride forth on their errands, their armour
sheds a strange flickering light, which
flashes up over the Northern skies, making what men call
the Aurora Borealis, or “Northern Lights.”
Hrist is one of the Valkyries that is mentioned by name, however, it seems more likely that she
is a representation of the Goddess Urd. The three Goddess that govern destiny, the Norn sisters,
are a different myth in Norse mythology. The elder Goddess Urd was the goddess of the past, Verdandi,
her middle sister was the Goddess of the present, and her younger sister Skuld was the Goddess of
the future. Skuld was another name for a Valkyrie, and it seems that in Valkyrie Profile, the three
Valkyries take over the duties of the Norn sisters. In this context, the valkyrie Hrist, who is the
older sister, would be compared to Urd. It is also possible that Hrist represents the first version
of the Valkyries from the Eddas (the source of Norse mythology). She is a war like Valkyrie clad in
the black armor of death, who disregards human emotions. Whereas her youngest sister Silmeria is
a representation of the maiden warriors and more romantic myths, since she is presented as a soft spoken
individual with long blond hair and light blue armor. Lenneth would be in the middle of both Hrist
and Silmeria, and would be the perfect Valkyrie.
Indepth:
One of the three Valkyrie souls, Hrist originally died fighting Brahms. Her own vessel was thus lost,
and her youngest sister Silmeria was captured by Brahms and kept in a crystal. She commanded many
succesful attacks in the name of the Gods, in particular the attack on Dipan, where she destroyed
a time machine and killed King Barbarossa. It is still a mistery to me how Mystina and Arngrim were
there in the battle of Dipan and the battle against Brahms. When the seal that Freya and Odin put on
Lenneth breaks, they use the soul of Hrist to replace her. Hrist’s soul however does not belong
in that vessel and her powers are weak. She is defeated by Arngrim, Mystina, Lezard and Brahms, and
is sent back to rest again.
Voice Actor: Edie Mirman
Brahms
“You are but a puppet of Odin.”
Class: Leader of the Undead
Race: Vampire
Age: Unknown
Gender: Male
Birthplace: Unknown
Intro: King of the Vampires and Lord of the Undead, he has fought many battles against Odin.
He has taken the spirit of Silmeria, one of the Three Goddesses of Fate, but his sense of honor
prevents him from ever harming his hostage.
Mythology: There is no record of any Brahms or Vampire Lord in Norse Mythology. He only leader
of the Undead is acclaimed as Hel, daughter of Loki and Queen of Nifleheim. Silmeria, the younger of
the Three Valkyries, probably represents the youngest of the Norn sisters Skuld. She represents the
maiden like messengers, and is a total contrast of Hrist. It could be that Brahms loves Silmeria, like
how Brynhild loved Sigurd in the Poetic Eddas.`
Indepth:
Brahms does not appear in the story a whole lot. Before Lenneth traveled to Midgard, he fought the Valkyrie Hrist.
I could be that he slew Hrist’s vessel, as well as capturing Hrist’s younger sister Silmeria.
He keeps Silmeria’s soul in a crystal in his palace. His palace, on an island west of the Gerbabellum
coast can only be seen at full moon for a short time. After Hrist takes control of Lenneth’s vessel,
she returns to the Castle to rescue Silmeria and kill Brahms. However because she is not in her own vessel
she is badly beaten. After that, Brahms continues to live in his castle, away from mortals and keeping
Silmeria as his trump card...

Frei
“I’ve been waiting for you, Lenneth!”
Class: Aesir Goddess
Race: Aesir
Age: Unknown
Gender: Female
Birthplace: Unknown
Intro: Goddess of the Aseir Gods whose elder sister is Goddess Freya. She governs the
destruction of all beings, although her power is sealed. She is quite cheerful and has an eloquent
look. She treats Lenneth, like Freya; as her real elder sister. She looks like a human girl, but her
innocent acts and behaviors are sometimes cruel. Therefore, she possibly embodies God himself.
Mythology: Frei or Freyr, is the son of Njord and the older brother of Freya.
God of light, rain, fertility and prosperity, like his sister and father he was once Vanir and became
an Aesir during his time as hostage. He resided in Alfheim and was either ruler or patron god of the
elves. Freyr has three companions, his servants, Byggvir and Beyla, and his shield–bearer,
Skirnir. He married the Giantess Gerd, and had a son called Fiolnir. At Ragnarok, Freyr will fight
Surt, the Fire Giant, and will die because he in unarmed. Freyr is mainly a popular deity in Sweden,
but he is worshipped in parts of Norway and Finland as well.
Indepth:
When Lucian is send to Asgard, Frei finds him lost in though in a valley of Weeping Lillies. When she
asks why he is so upset, they talk about Lenneth and her role; as well as her former life as
Plaltina. Frei is not supposed to reveal those secrets, and because of Lucian’s desire he is
ysed in Loki’s scheme. When Loki attacks Asgard, Frei is one of the few Gods that remains
alive. She tells Lenneth what happened and is left behind as Lenneth goes to deal with loki.

Platina
“I just want to forget...forget...it all.”
Class: Village Girl
Race: Human
Age: 14
Gender: Female
Birthplace: Coriander Village
Intro: A girl born in a poor village located in the alpine area inside Villenore territory. The
birth of a boy who earns his keep is welcome, but the birth of a girl who will consume precious food
is frowned upon by the poor people of this village, who don’t have enough contact with outside
people. Because of this, young girls are usually sold to slave traders in exchange for money, and she
was no exception. On the day before she was delivered to the slave trader, however, her childhood
boyfriend Lucian took her by the hand and they ran away from the village together. It was the only way
a powerless boy could save her, but was a shortsighted endeavor, and ended with the death of the
girl.
Indepth:
After her death in the Weeping Lilly Meadow, her body, her vessel, was taken by the Goddess Freya to
Valhalla. She was made the new Valkyrie, possibly because Hrist was defeated by Brahms, and because
Silmeria was captured. She was given her new identity as Lenneth Valkyrie, and given the rank of a level
six Goddess. However, Freya sealed the memories of Platina, and gave Lenneth a completely blank life.
Later on, when Lenneth meets Lucian and experiences grief for his death, she goes back to Platina’s
grave to find answers. The seal of Freya breaks, and her memories return. However, Lenneth is temporarily
locked away by Hrist. After Hrist is defeated by Brahms, Lenneth regains her memories of Platina completely
and understands her life to the full. Platina’s memories and human emotions are the catalyst for
Lenneth’s great empathy with the Midgardians, and the root of her new found powers of creation.
