SECTION 1: INTRODUCTION
===============================================================================
As the Einherjar characters in Silmeria are recruited randomly from 2-3 choices
per relic, this is a list of who appears when and some notes on the comparisons
between characters.
The usual disclaimers apply: I'm fishing romanizations and translations out of
in-game text and/or the artbook where that applies, but use my own translations
when there aren't any. This guide assumes knowledge of basic Japanese.
At the time I'm writing this the English version of the game isn't out yet so
I've no idea what the official translations will be (fortunately character
names in combat and places on the overworld map are in English). As I won't be
playing the English version I probably won't be updating the names once that
comes out.
This FAQ contains spoilers in so far as revealing dungeon names for the first
half of the game, some one-line descriptions of the basic character
information, and mention of the bonus dungeon. Read at your own risk.

SECTION 2: BASIC INFORMATION
===============================================================================
Basic info on how the Einherjar system works this time around. All the
Einherjar are already in spirit form in Silmeria/Alicia, but you have to find
relics to materialize them. You can then release them once they've leveled to
their starting level+5. They'll leave status increasing items when you release
them, but you'll never get them back.
It's quite possible to play through the entire game using just the plot
characters, who usually have superior attacks/magic/special equipment, but
they'll take off for plot reasons every now and then so it's handy to keep a
couple of Einherjar around. If you're just looking to level and release them,
which ones you get probably don't really matter, especially later into the
game where the things they give you after release won't be terribly impressive
anyway (items you receive during release, ie the stat-increasing ones,
depend on class and equipment rather than individual character).
On the other hand, unlike VP1 nobody's going to come down to deliver divine
wrath upon you if you choose to keep all the Einherjar, so you can just keep
them around as well.
Einherjar join at the around the average level of your top 6 party members,
with a random factor of 10% relative to level.
Einherjar this time around don't really have any background story aside from
what you read in their profiles, though if you talk to them after release or
witness certain battle conversations you'll find that what's in the profiles
is more how history remembers them than what actually happened.
-RANDOM FACTOR-----------------------------------------------------------------
Each relic will randomly materialize one of 2-3 characters (exceptions being
a couple of the mages). Once you get one of them you can't get the others tied
to that particular relic. This selection is random, picked at the time you
investigate the relic, though I've had better luck getting different characters
by touching the relic and selecting "no" once when asked if you want to
materialize the character. The probability of getting each character is
different depending on the character.
All of the characters tied to the same relic will be of the same class and will
almost always share the same set of generic voice samples (Tri-Ace being lazy).
They will, however, learn different attacks and, in the case of mages, have
different Greater Magic.
If you find every relic, you'll have a total of 4 Heavy Fighters, 4 Light
Fighters, 5 Archers, and 7 Mages at the end.
-RELEASE-----------------------------------------------------------------------
When you level an Einherjar to release level, you can release them and they'll
go their merry way and be incarnated as normal human beings, populating
some of those empty houses you see in town and sometimes random dungeons.
They'll take off with all their equipment (minus accessories), but will leave
stat increasing items.
The items you get from this depend on the equipment you send them off with.
Theoretically speaking the later you wait to release them the more items you
get, since you'll have better equipment to dump. You can release Einherjar at
any time, but be forewarned that once released, you can't get them back the
way you can get back transferred characters in Seraphic Gate in VP1.
-STATUS ITEMS-
The items that you get from release are:
Scarlet Flame Gem (STR+20, DEX+20)
Azure Flame Gem (INT+20, CON+20)
Emerald Flame Gem (HP+200, AGL+20)
Swordsman's Lore (STR+5)
Magician's Lore (INT+5)
Archer's Lore (DEX+5)
Thief's Lore (AGL+5)
Heavy Fighter's Lore (CON+5)
Ambrosia (HP+100)
The formula for the items goes likes this:
-You get one of the Flame Gems depending on which stat is the highest for the
character you release: Scarlet for ATK, Azure for MAG, and Emerald for RDM.
-The various Lore items are obtained from the combined stats of the equipment
the character is released with. The formula is:
Swordsman: ATK/20
Magician: MAG/10
Archer: HIT/5
Thief: AVD/10
Heavy Fighter: RST/5
Ambrosia: RDM/25
So if the combined attack bonus of all your gear is 200, for example, you'd
get 200/20 = 10 Swordsman's Lores. The max number of any one item you can get
at a time is 99.
This means that you're looking for raw stats rather than special properties of
the gear that you send them off with, so the ideal equipment (none-unique,
replaceable gear including Seraphic Gate stuff) would be:
Light Fighter: Terror Sword Helge, Ether Crown, Infinite Admire, Star Guard,
Mithril Greaves
Heavy Fighter: Tirfing, Ether Crown, Tyrant's Armor, Gauntlets of Thrudge, Red
Boots
Archer: Laser Fortell, Ether Crown, Sylph Red, Star Guard, Mithril
Greaves
Mage: Holy Staff Million Terror OR Wand of Apocalypse, Ether Crown,
Sylph Red, Star Guard, Magic Boots
Several of these require you fight bosses, meaning more trips through SG, so
it's entirely up to you whether you want to expend the effort.
-AFTER RELEASE-
Once released, the Einherjar will hang out somewhere in a town or dungeon
(usually one per dungeon and 2 per town). Sometimes they'll give you additional
stuff if you talk to them a few times. Their conversation changes depending on
your story progression - one before Chapter 4, once from Chapter 5 onwards, and
once just before the end. Some will give you even more stuff if you talk to
them after their conversation has changed.
Following is the list of stuff they give you after release, in order. An
asterix denotes an item that you can't get anywhere else.

-ATTACKS & MAGIC---------------------------------------------------------------
Each Einherjar has 9 normal attacks chosen from a pool common to their class.
While there aren't any moves that are extremely overpowered, some are better
than others so there's a bit of variation. Einherjar of the same class all
share the same Finishers, unless they're mages.
Finishers are, by class:
>Wheeling Ripper (Light Fighter)
12 Hits, Heat+47%
>Soul Evocation (Heavy Fighter)
4 Hits, Heat+36%
>Crumble Gust (Archer)
20 Hits, Heat+58%
While each character learns 9 attacks normally, there's a tenth attack for
every class you can get out of treasure chests in Seraphic Gate (you only
need the one item to get all the characters of that class to learn the new
attack). Plot characters other than Dylan and Leone get their own unique
attacks in SG so they won't be using these.
>Second Ruin (Light Fighter)
>Sonic Edge (Heavy Fighter)
>Buster Shoot (Archer)
Greater Magic for mages is set depending on the mage, unless you have Seraphic
Gate weapons equipped. Greater Magics are:
>Grand Trigger
Fire-element, 5 Hits, Heat+35%
>Tidal Wave
Water-element, 2 Hits, Heat+68%
>Cloudy Harm
Earth-element, 2 Hits, Heat+62%
>Precede Gravity
Lightning-element, 1 Hit, Heat+30%
>Pale Flare (requires Wand of Apocalypse)
Dark-element, 12 Hits, Heat+42%
>Phantom Distraction (requires Holy Staff Million Terror)
Light-element, 8 Hits, Heat+64%
Note that Meteor Swarm is a boss-only Greater Magic.
Mages eventually get to learn almost all menu spells and every mage will have
all 6 basic element attack spells (though the levels at which they learn each
will vary). Generally "good" mages will get Prismic Missile before Dark Saber,
and "evil" ones vice versa. Similarly, the bright shiney happy ones will tend
to get Evoke Feather while the dark gloomy ones get Chaotic Rune.
Light Fighters and Archers will be able to learn menu spells, but what spells
they get depends heavily on the individual character.
-COMBAT CONVERSATION-----------------------------------------------------------
If you have two characters who knew each other in life in the active party,
sometimes they'll start chatting at the beginning of combat. This has no
actual technical effect aside from amusement value.
===============================================================================
SECTION 3: EINHERJAR
===============================================================================
List of all the Einherjar, where to find them, their abilities/spells/attacks,
and a bit of comparison. Parenthesis behind spell/attack names are the level at
which they learn the ability, (-) denoting a starting ability. This data's
pretty incomplete as of now as I didn't track the levels the first time
through. "Attack" denotes their normal attacks, be they the standard 6 spells
for the mages or the fighters' normal moves, while "Spells" denote the magic
you use from the Menu. The percentage in parenthesis after the character name
is the probability of getting that character when you touch the relic.
The levels at which character learn new attacks are in parenthesis after the
attack/spell name.

You don't get a choice on this one, but his greater magic is one of the few
things you can use to chain as the 3rd Finisher early on.

CONVERSATION: Gerald
===============================================================================
Richelle has the highest stats and will give you a Wisdom of Sages (exp
crystal) after release, though Sylphide has higher Int and does comparable
damage with Feint; her magic and skills are also very useful early on. Jessica
apparently becomes quite good at very high levels, but she starts with the
lowest stats of the 3.
=HEAVY FIGHTER=================================================================
RELIC LOCATION: 2 screens forward from the previous relic
AFTER RELEASE: House, Villnore
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ROLAND (50%)

Kraad gives you a nifty sword after release, while Roland has slightly better
stats. At high levels Kraad has more HP and Roland has higher Strength.
-SERDBERG MOUNTAIN RUINS-------------------------------------------------------
=LIGHT FIGHTER=================================================================
RELIC LOCATION: Behind the wall in the room with the save point (break the wall
by slashing it a few times)
AFTER RELEASE: House, Solde
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CELES (30%)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DESCRIPTION: Former princess of Dipan, one of the 17 Generals, and later the
Black Radiance General of Rosetta.
STARTING SKILL: Body Passage
ELEMENT RESIST: +5% across the board
SPELLS: Might Reinforce (25)
ATTACKS: Soul Piercing (-), Misty Phantom (-), Ray Down Sword (-),
Ray Up Sword (7), Surprise Throw (15), Over Spin (23), Double

Throw (8), Over Spin (16), Soul Piercing (24), Tri Crusade
(32), Double Wind (40), Holy Smite (48)
CONVERSATION: Adonis
===============================================================================
In terms of combat ability Celes wins hands down, as her default attack, Soul
Piercing, has a chance to instant-kill things including bosses, and her initial
skill, Body Passage, isn't something you can get yourself until near the end
of the game. Tylith has some unique lines and a whackier personality.
=MAGE==========================================================================
RELIC LOCATION: By the left-hand entrance at the bottom of the stairs, one
screen left of the spring.
AFTER RELEASE: Chateau Obsession
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ALM (50%)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DESCRIPTION: 2nd prince of Paltia.
STARTING SKILL: Overload
ELEMENT RESIST: Lightning +20%, Fire -20%
SPELLS: Reduce Power (-), Thunderstorm (10), Reduce Guard (12),
Explosion (18), Guard Reinforce (20), Spell Reinforce (22),
Might Reinforce (25), Ordinary Shape (30), Cure Plums (32),
Earth Grave (34), Prevent Sorcery (36), Chaotic Rune (38),
Glacial Blizzard (41), Spiritual Thorn (48), Reflect Sorcery
(51), Astral Maze (55)
ATTACKS: Lightning Bolt (-), Cool Damsel (8), Poison Blow (16), Burn
Storm (28), Dark Saber (43), Prismic Missile (45)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WOLTAR (50%)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

queen.

Spiritual Thorn (55)
ATTACKS: Poison Blow (-), Burn Storm (8), Lightning Bolt (16), Cool
Damsel (28), Prismic Missile (45), Dark Saber (48)
GREATER MAGIC: Cloudy Harm
CONVERSATION: Lylia, Lydia, Sha-Kon
===============================================================================
Alm is one of the few mages who learns Chaotic Rune at a reasonable level, and
his initial spell is Lightning Bolt, which is quite handy for building combo
hits. Woltar's greater magic is Cloudy Harm, so he can be used in place of
Mithra as 3rd in a Finisher chain. While Alm doesn't get healing spells till
rather late, despite all appearances Woltar falls into the "good" mage
category is handy with the heal/recovery stuff at lower levels.
-ANCIENT FOREST----------------------------------------------------------------
=ARCHER========================================================================
RELIC LOCATION: Patch of lilies on the left side of the screen forward from
the save point.
AFTER RELEASE: Kythena Plains
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SHA-KON (90%)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DESCRIPTION: Hai Lan mechanic. Makes constructs and golems.
STARTING SKILL: Lost Emotion

ATTACKS: Dual Task (-), Poison Shoot (-), Restrict Distortion (-), Flare
Shoot (8), Aiming Wisp (17), Flake Flap (24), Weathering Order
(31), Flame Shoot (39), Wave Motion (46)
CONVERSATION: Woltar, Masato, various enemy golems
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHRYSTIE (10%)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DESCRIPTION: Princess of Paltia who ran off chasing spoony bard.
STARTING SKILL: Protect Magic
ELEMENT RESIST: Holy, Dark +10%
SPELLS: Ordinary Shape (14), Cure Plums (23), Evoke Feather (45)
ATTACKS: Single Shot (-), Dual Task (-), 3-Way (-), Stardust (8), Throat
Shoot (16), Wave Motion (24), Flame Shoot (32), Rising Wisp
(40), Restrict Distortion (48)
CONVERSATION: Phyress, Seluvia, Alm
===============================================================================
Not much difference between the two in terms of either stats or attacks, though
Sha-Kon gets Flake Flap fairly early while Chrystie has 3-Way and Stardust as
starting attacks.
-TURGEN MINE-------------------------------------------------------------------
=ARCHER========================================================================
RELIC LOCATION: One screen left of the save point, on the ledge behind the wasp
swarm.
AFTER RELEASE: House, Crell Monferaigne
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LYLIA (50%)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

day.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MILLIDIA (50%)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DESCRIPTION: Ruler of Gerabellum who came to power through the aid of the
Thieves' Guild.
STARTING SKILL: Demon Slayer
ELEMENT RESIST: Everything -5%
SPELLS: Spell Reinforce (55), Explosion (65), Glacial Blizzard (85),
Reduce Guard (86), Reduce Power (88), Thunderstorm (89), Astral
Maze (90), Prevent Sorcery (91), Reflect Sorcery (92), Guard
Reinforce (93), Might Reinforce (94), Chaotic Rune (95),
Ordinary Shape (96), Earth Grave (97), Spiritual Thorn (97),
Cure Plums (98), Evoke Feather (99)
ATTACKS: Single Shot (-), Dual Task (-), Poison Shoot (-), Weathering
Order (9), Throat Shoot (17), Flare Shoot (26), Flake Flap
(35), Stardust (43), Flame Shoot (52)
CONVERSATION: Sophalla
===============================================================================
Lylia has some handy spells but low stats, particularly her DEX stat which is
lowest of all the archers. She does have both the Wisp attacks and is easy to
use. Millidia's spell list is not a typo, but you have to level her past 85 or
so to get most of those spells.
-AUDOULLA TEMPLE ON THE LAKE---------------------------------------------------
=MAGE==========================================================================
RELIC LOCATION: Eastern end of the map
AFTER RELEASE: Skavia Gorge
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
KHANON (-)

ceremony. Universally detested by all the Einherjar who knew
him in life.

Damsel (28), Dark Saber (45), Prismic Missile (55)
GREATER MAGIC: Cloudy Harm
CONVERSATION: Roland, Richelle, Aaron, Fraudir, Phyress, Ehrde
===============================================================================
No choice about this one either. His INT isn't too great but he has relatively
high HP for a mage.
=ARCHER========================================================================
RELIC LOCATION: On the very high ledge one screen left of the watergate block
gimmick. Kill the large monster and switch places with the
floating small one to get up to it.
AFTER RELEASE: Cathedral, Solde
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PHYRESS (90%)

years old but asked to be materialized as 17.

Order (32), Stardust (40), Rising Wisp (48)
CONVERSATION: Khanon, Farant, Xehnon, Ehlen

Phyress' starting skill is very good and she has the high INT to back it up,
while Ehrde gets better spells later on.

Structure Shoot (40), Bloody Cascade (48)
CONVERSATION: Falx
===============================================================================
They're about on par as far as stats/moves are concerned. Dyn looks like a
samurai despite there being no Hai Lan yet and has a good resist bonus, while
Zunde has a number of unique lines and is a rare comic relief character. Aaron
isn't bad but doesn't really have anything that makes him particularly stand
out either.
-SURTS VOLCANO CAVERN----------------------------------------------------------
=ARCHER========================================================================
RELIC LOCATION: In the area of Null Protection.

(8), Wave Motion (16), Throat Shoot (24), Restrict Distortion
(32), Aiming Wisp (40), Stardust (48)
CONVERSATION: Millidia

Either's fairly good in combat. Arcana's Heroism skill is very useful against
normal mobs.

Blow (28), Prismic Missile (45), Dark Saber (48)
GREATER MAGIC: Precede Gravity
CONVERSATION: Crescent, Ehrde
===============================================================================
Neither Grand Trigger nor Precede Gravity are particularly powerful Greater
Magics, so there's not much difference. Psoron resembles Mithra, while Farant
has whacky conversations with the Rosetta crowd and overall superior stats.

GREATER MAGIC: Precede Gravity
CONVERSATION: Chrystie, Phyress, Alm, Dyn
===============================================================================
Ditto no choice, since you can get more mages overall than any other class. His
God Slayer skill is quite useful during the latter half of the game, although
he doesn't have the highest INT.
-CRAWSAS FOREST RUINS----------------------------------------------------------

fights. Not sure about the advantage of picking Falx.

CONVERSATION: Arcana
===============================================================================
Fraudir has a number of multi-hitting attack moves. Circe will give you the
Kraad Mail after being released, and starts with a bunch of nifty equipment.
Rasheeka is a decent all-round fighter. None of the three have any particularly
impressive spells.

GREATER MAGIC: Cloudy Harm
CONVERSATION: Sha-Kon

Xehnon is the only mage in the game who learns every spell, and he has
the highest INT of all the mages but low HP. Masato starts with some pretty
nifty spells and has a better Greater Magic.

All 3 start with some pretty useful skills. Guilm has one of the highest CON/HP
of all the characters, while Ehlen has a very useful set of attack moves and
Gerald starts with the Dragonslayer skill which is quite handy around the time
you get him.

learns all her attacks earlier.

SECTION 4: ATTACK PROPERTIES
===============================================================================
So we've got the list of attacks that each character learns, but what do they
do? I'm not sure this is something appropriate for this FAQ but I'll stick it
here for now and maybe remove it later if it makes the FAQ too bulky.
"Area" means basic area the attack connects with, on a human-sized opponent.
"Special" denotes any special effects the attack causes, like knocking into the
air, status ailments etc.
The attacks listed here only cover the ones used by the Einherjar, this being
an Einherjar FAQ and all. Some of these are also shared with the main
characters, but they're on their own :P
-MAGIC-------------------------------------------------------------------------
-BURN STORM-
AP: 18
HEAT: 25x1 hit
SPECIAL: Air
NOTES: Blast of fire erupts from under the target. This has a throw effect
so if you're using it as an opening attack be careful you don't
knock the enemy too high for you melee people to hit. Otherwise
nothing special, though it does pack a punch early on.
-COOL DAMSEL-
AP: 16
HEAT: 3 hits (8, 7, 9)
SPECIAL: Freeze
NOTES: Summons ice elementals. The elementals have curved attack paths, so
it's a bit hard to predict where their hits actually land.
-LIGHTNING BOLT-
AP: 17
HEAT: 4x6 hits
SPECIAL: Paralyze
NOTES: Best spell for generating a lot of hits, though it's easy to miss if
the target's down or you're standing on a hill.
-POISON BLOW-
AP: 17
HEAT: 28x1 hit
SPECIAL: Poison
NOTES: Poison cloud erupts under the target. Unlike Burn Storm this won't
actually knock it into the air.
-PRISMIC MISSILE-
AP: 21
HEAT: 5x7 hits
SPECIAL: Poison, Paralyze, Freeze, Weaken, Petrify, Confuse
NOTES: A bunch of light projectiles shoot out from behind the caster. This
has slightly better homing than Lightning Bolt but will still miss
smaller enemies. Also, since the projecile arc is curved (think
Macross missile cluster) they'll miss if the caster's standing too
close to the target. Nevertheless, one of the most handy spells if
only for the status effects.
-DARK SABER-
AP: 21
HEAT: 3 hits (9, 6, 14)
SPECIAL: -
NOTES: Several blades appear around the target and go stabbity. Unless you
suddenly displace the target as it's going off, more or less
guaranteed to hit.
-SWORD------------------------------------------------------------------------
-RAY DOWN SWORD-
AP: 7
HEAT: 2x4 hits
AREA: Mid/Low
SPECIAL: Down
LEARNED: Sylphide (43), Celes (-), Circe (24), Crescent (14), Llwyn (-)
NOTES: Shield bash then a delayed downwards swipe. As long as the first
hit connects the rest will too, unless you knock the target out of
range with another character. Good for getting Flame Stones.
-RAY UP SWORD-
AP: 8
HEAT: 2x4 hits
AREA: Mid
SPECIAL: Air
LEARNED: Richelle (-), Jessica (16), Celes (7), Tylith (-), Fraudir (-),
Rasheeka (-), Crescent (22)
NOTES: Like Ray Down Sword but knocking the target up at the end of the
animation.
-SUNSET RUSTER-
AP: 6
HEAT: 9x1 hit
AREA: Mid/High
SPECIAL: -
LEARNED: Richelle (-), Sylphide (-), Jessica (-), Tylith (-), Fraudir (-),
Circe (-)
NOTES: Basic downwards slash.
-DOUBLE WIND-
AP: 8
HEAT: 4x2 hits
AREA: Mid
SPECIAL: -
LEARNED: Richelle (-), Sylphide (-), Jessica (7), Celes (30), Tylith (40),
Fraudir (32), Circe (-), Rasheeka (8)
NOTES: Two consecutive mid-level slashes.
-ASSAULT STEP-
AP: 5
HEAT: 3x2 hits
AREA: Low
SPECIAL: -
LEARNED: Richelle (6), Sylphide (-), Jessica (-), Celes (38), Tylith (-),
Circe (8), Rasheeka (-), Crescent (7), Lwyn (-)
NOTES: Simple stab to the face.
-TRI-CRUSADE-
AP: 8
HEAT: 3x3 hits
AREA: Mid/High
SPECIAL: Air
LEARNED: Richelle (14), Sylphide (17), Jessica (35), Tylith (32), Fraudir (8),
Circe (16), Rasheeka (24), Crescent (30), Lwyn (12)
NOTES: Attacker jumps, knocking the target up into the air. You can follow up
with another move while jumping, but light targets are thrown very
high, making it hard to connect with anything other than bow attacks
during the move. Guaranteed knockdown effect.
-OVER SPIN-
AP: 6
HEAT: 13x1 hit
AREA: Mid
SPECIAL: Air, Stun (10%)
LEARNED: Richelle (31), Celes (23), Tylith (16), Fraudir (40), Circe (32),
Rasheeka (-), Crescent (-), Llwyn (-)
NOTES: Flip kick that knocks the target into the air.
-SURPRISE THROW-
AP: 6
HEAT: 6x2 hits
AREA: Low
SPECIAL: Guard break
LEARNED: Sylphide (9), Jessica (-), Celes (15), Tylith (8), Lwyn (7)
NOTES: Throws three knives at the opponent's feet. The range/area of effect
isn't too impressive but you can use it to kick off a combo.
-ENERGY STEAL-
AP: 8
HEAT: 6x2 hits
AREA: Low
SPECIAL: Absorbs HP
LEARNED: Jessica (43), Celes (45), Circe (-), Rasheeka (32), Llwyn (30)
NOTES: Same basic move as Surprise Throw but absorbs HP.
-SHADOW SNAP-
AP: 7
HEAT: 5x2
AREA: Low
SPECIAL: -
LEARNED: Fraudir (24), Rasheeka (16), Crescent (-), Lwyn (17)
NOTES: Poor man's version of Surprise Throw.
-SOUL PIERCING-
AP: 8
HITS: 8x1 hit
AREA: Mid
SPECIAL: Instant death (10%)
LEARNED: Celes (-), Tylith (24), Circe (40), Crescent (38), Lwyn (38)
NOTES: Slightly long startup animation, but is incredibly broken early on
as most early monsters/bosses don't have death resistance. Stabbity
death.
-MISTY PHANTOM-
AP: 9
HEAT: 2x4 hits
AREA: Mid
SPECIAL: -
LEARNED: Jessica (52), Celes (-), Fraudir (16), Rasheeka (40), Crescent (46),
Lwyn (22)
NOTES: The attacker charges through the target and the actual attack effect
has a delay of about a second or so. Will not hit small downed
enemies. While most of the time you return to normal position after
the attack round, it's possible to charge off a cliff using this,
so keep an eye out on the terrain behind the target.
-RESONATE PAIN-
AP: 9
HEAT: 2x4 hits
AREA: Mid
SPECIAL: -
LEARNED: Richelle (48), Sylphide (51), Jessica (25), Fraudir (-), Rasheeka (48)
NOTES: Horizontal stab.
-HOLY SMITE-
AP: 9
HEAT: 5x2 hits
AREA: Mid
SPECIAL: Holy-element (80%)
LEARNED: Richelle (40), Sylphide (34), Tylith (48), Fraudir (48), Circe (48)
NOTES: Holds the sword out to charge it for a moment, then a horizontal stab.
Bit of a delay in between pressing the button and the attack actually
connecting.
-MAGIC LOCK-
AP: 7
HEAT: 5x2 hits
AREA: Mid
SPECIAL: Silence (30%)
LEARNED: Richelle (23), Sylphide (26), Crescent (-)
NOTES: Horizontal stab that sometimes causes silence.
-SECOND RUIN-
AP: 9
HEAT: 2x6 hits
AREA: Low/Mid/High
SPECIAL: Air
LEARNED: Seraphic Gate item
NOTES: Jumping upper slash like Tri Crusade. A lot of hits.
-GREATSWORD---------------------------------------------------------------------
Most of these aren't quite as fast as the sword moves but increase the Heat
gauge more; there are also fewer moves that do mutliple hits. Some of the moves
automatically have knockback, while for others you can do a knockback version
if you hold the attack button when doing the attack ("knockback" in parenthesis
denotes this option).
-SIDESWING CUT-
AP: 7
HEAT: 12x1 hit
AREA: Mid
SPECIAL: (Knockback)
LEARNED: Roland (-), Kraad (-), Aaron (-), Zunde (14), Falx (-), Ehlen (8)
NOTES: Basic slash attack at about shoulder level.
-BUSTER SWING-
AP: 8
HEAT: 14x1 hit
AREA: Mid/High
SPECIAL: -
LEARNED: Roland (-), Aaron (6), Dyn (23), Zunde (31), Falx (-), Ehlen (-),
Guilm (26), Gerald (8)
NOTES: Overhead downwards slash, with a bit of windup time. Sometimes
connects with downed enemies, sometimes not. Fairly decent area.
-DREADED RADIUS-
AP: 9
HEAT: 16x1 hit
AREA: High
SPECIAL: -
LEARNED: Roland (24), Kraad (24), Aaron (31), Dyn (48), Zunde (-), Adonis
(48), Falx (32), Ehlen (-), Guilm (-), Gerald (32)
NOTES: Diagonal upwards slash at about head height. Tricky to connect with
but a fairly good attack to mix into an air combo.
-BLOODY CASCADE-
AP: 13
HITS: 4x2 hits
AREA: Low/Mid/High
SPECIAL: Air
LEARNED: Roland (32), Kraad (48), Aaron (48), Dyn (-), Zunde (48), Adonis (40),
Falx (40), Ehlen (40), Gerald (48)
NOTES: Two slashes in succession. This has a decent hit area and attack
strength, but high AP cost; though if your target is throwable and
your other characters aren't knocking it around too much, you're
guaranteed to get a Radiant Gem out of this, reducing the effective
cost to 5.
-SWEEP DIVE-
AP: 7
HEAT: 15x1 hit
AREA: Mid/High
SPECIAL: Guard break
LEARNED: Kraad (-), Aaron (14), Dyn (31), Zunde (-), Adonis (23), Ehlen (48),
Guilm (50), Gerald (24)
NOTES: Somersault smack to the head. The windup animation for this is pretty
long, so it's best used as a starting move. Highly useful for Break
purposes.
-STRUCTURE SHOOT-
AP: 8
HEAT: 11x1 hit
AREA: Low/Mid/High
SPECIAL: Air
LEARNED: Roland (-), Aaron (-), Zunde (40), Ehlen (-)
NOTES: Upwards slash, covering a ridiculously large area. Will hit downed
targets. Very little startup/delay.
-REMOVE HARD-
AP: 7
HEAT: 9x1 hit
AREA: Low/Mid/High
SPECIAL: -
LEARNED: Kraad (32), Adonis (-), Guilm (-)
NOTES: Upwards slash, but will not knock enemies into the air like Structure
Shoot. Covers more or less the same area.
-LOWER SPLIT-
AP: 8
HEAT: 5x2 hits
AREA: Low/Mid/High
SPECIAL: -
LEARNED: Dyn (-), Falx (-), Gerald (-)
NOTES: Like Remove Hard but doing two less powerful hits instead of one.
-QUICK STAB-
AP: 7
HEAT: 15x1 hit
AREA: Mid
SPECIAL: -
LEARNED: Kraad (16), Aaron (-), Dyn (-), Zunde (23), Adonis (7), Falx (7),
Guilm (42), Gerald (-)
NOTES: Exactly what it sounds like.
-CURRENT SPINE-
AP: 8
HEAT: 3x3 hits
AREA: Mid
SPECIAL: -
LEARNED: Roland (48), Dyn (40), Falx (48), Ehlen (32)
NOTES: Horizontal stabbing motion, 3 hits. Has a fairly long hit duration.
-OVER LEFT-
AP: 6
HEAT: 14x1 hit
AREA: Mid
SPECIAL: Stun (10%), (Knockback)
LEARNED: Roland (16), Kraad (-), Zunde (-), Adonis (15), Falx (15), Guilm (-),
Gerald (40)
NOTES: Straightforward punch. Neither range nor damage is impressive but
it has a fairly low AP cost.
-BLAST KICK-
AP: 7
HEAT: 12x1 hit
AREA: Mid
SPECIAL: Knockback
LEARNED: Roland (8), Kraad (40), Aaron (40), Zunde (3), Adonis (-), Ehlen (24),
Guilm (34)
NOTES: Exactly what it sounds like. It can get a bit hard to do follow-ups
with this since the target's kicked backwards about half a screen.
-ARMED BREAK-
AP: 7
HEAT: 9x1 hit
AREA: Mid
SPECIAL: -
LEARNED: Dyn (6), Adonis (-), Guilm (17), Gerald (-)
NOTES: Plain downwards slash.
-IRON BASH-
AP: 6
HEAT: 12x1 hit
AREA: Mid
SPECIAL: Air, (Knockback)
LEARNED: Kraad (8), Aaron (23), Dyn (14), Adonis (31), Guilm (9), Gerald (16)
NOTES: Smacks the target with the flat length of the blade. Short reach.
-FORBID NOISE-
AP: 7
HITS: 9x1 hit
AREA: Mid
SPECIAL: Silence (30%)
LEARNED: Roland (40), Falx (23), Ehlen (16)
NOTES: Short range but has a chance to silence target.
-SONIC EDGE-
AP: 10
HITS: 7x2 hit
AREA: Mid
SPECIAL: (Knockback)
LEARNED: Seraphic Gate item
NOTES: Charges up energy and executes a diagonal slash like Dreaded Radius.
You get a pretty good distance on the knockback for this move.
-BOW----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The bow attacks are usually of two types - the ones with a fix attack angle like
Wave Motion, and the ones where the attack angle is adjusted depending on where
the target is at the time of the attack. The second's obviously much easier to
aim. The Wisp-type moves have a limited amount of homing capacity, meaning they
can change their paths a bit in between the attack button being pressed and
the attack actually connecting.
Several of these attacks have elements associated with them, which may or may
not be a good thing depending on what you're shooting at; those and the Wisp
attacks will let you hit incorporeal enemies without having to have special
skills/equipment though. If an attack has an element attached to it, it means
that in addition to the normal attack, you get, say, 20% of the attack power
in additional Fire damage or whatever.
-SINGLE SHOT-
AP: 4
HEAT: 7x1 hit
AREA: Variable
SPECIAL: -
LEARNED: Chrystie (-), Lylia (-), Millidia (-), Ehrde (-)
NOTES: Plain old shot to the front. Use until you get something better, or if
you're really trying to conserve AP.
-DUAL TASK-
AP: 6
HEAT: 6x2 hits
AREA: Variable
SPECIAL: -
LEARNED: Sha-Kon (-), Chrystie (-), Lylia (8), Millidia (-), Phyress (-), Ehrde
(-) Arcana, Sophalla (-), Lydia (-), Atracia (-)
NOTES: Like Single Shot but slightly better area. Nothing special.
-3-WAY-
AP: 6
HEAT: 5x3 hits
AREA: Variable
SPECIAL: -
LEARNED: Chrystie (-), Arcana (7), Sophalla (-), Atracia (16)
NOTES: Shoots a fan of 3 shots, angle adjustable for low/mid/high depending
on where the target is. You may not connect with all three if the
target is too small.
-STARDUST-
AP: 7
HEAT: 3x4 hits
AREA: Variable
SPECIAL: -
LEARNED: Chrystie (8), Lylia (25), Millidia (43), Phyress (37), Ehrde (40),
Arcana (-), Sophalla (48), Lydia (-), Atracia (32)
NOTES: Shoots 4 waves of energy at the target. The bread-and-butter bow
attack, Stardust has a very wide area, is variable angle, and does
multiple hits.
-RESTRICT DISTORTION-
AP: 8
HEAT: 3xn Hits
AREA: Fixed
SPECIAL: Paralysis
LEARNED: Sha-Kon (-), Chrystie (48), Lylia (50), Phyress (30), Ehrde (24),
Arcana (48), Sophalla (32), Lydia (38), Atracia (48)
NOTES: Shoots a ball of purple energy horizontally across the screen. It's a
bit hard to get this to connect properly unless you're doing a low
air juggle as the area is small, but if you use it against a mid to
large sized enemy you can get a pretty good number of hits in. It's
not quite Raiding Thorn but has the same properties.
-WAVE MOTION-
AP: 7
HEAT: 9x2 hits
AREA: Fixed, Mid
SPECIAL: -
LEARNED: Chrystie (24), Lylia (42), Arcana (-), Sophalla (16), Lydia (8)
NOTES: Two energy waves do a horizontal helix across the screen. It's kind of
like Rufus' Absolute Wave, ie not terribly impressive, but works
decently against large sized opponents.
-AIMING WISP-
AP: 7
HEAT: 4x3 hits
AREA: Homing, Mid
SPECIAL: Holy-element (20%)
LEARNED: Sha-Kon (17), Lylia (-), Phyress (45), Arcana (40), Sophalla (40),
Lydia, Atracia
NOTES: Releases 3 sparkly homing shots. The homing mechanism's not perfect -
you can still miss depending on how fast the enemy's being juggled,
but it's a decently reliable move.
-RISING WISP-
AP: 8
HEAT: 7x2 hits
AREA: Homing, Low
SPECIAL: Air, Holy-element (40%)
LEARNED: Chrystie (40), Lylia (-), Ehrde (48), Lydia (31), Atracia (40)
NOTES: The low version of Aiming Wisp, which knocks the target into the air
a bit. It'll home in on the target but always hit the lower part.
-THROAT SHOOT-
AP: 6
HEAT: 10x1 hit
AREA: Variable/Aimed
SPECIAL: Silence (30%)
LEARNED: Chrystie (16), Lylia (33), Millidia (17), Phyress (22), Ehrde (16),
Arcana (32), Sophalla (24), Lydia (16)
NOTES: Single hit to the head. This can be kind of useful for Break purposes,
or if you're fighting a lot of mage type monsters.
-POISON SHOOT-
AP: 6
HEAT: 9x1 hit
AREA: Variable
SPECIAL: Poison (30%), Earth-element (80%)
LEARNED: Sha-Kon (-), Millidia (-), Phyress (7), Ehrde (-), Sophalla (-)
NOTES: A surprising number of bosses aren't immune to poison, so if you
you're really having trouble you can hit them with this and run around
until their HP drains. Not quite as useful in normal fights since the
AP system means you want to try to kill things in one attack phase.
-WEATHERING ORDER-
AP: 7
HEAT: 9x1 hit
AREA: Variable
SPECIAL: Petrify (30%)
LEARNED: Sha-Kon (31), Millidia (9), Phyress (15), Ehrde (32), Arcana (8),
Lydia (-), Atracia (8)
NOTES: The Petrify effect doesn't work all the time but it's very useful when
it does.
-FLARE SHOOT-
AP: 9
HEAT: 10x1
AREA: Variable
SPECIAL: Fire-element (80%)
LEARNED: Sha-Kon (8), Lylia (17), Millidia (26), Phyress (-), Arcana (16),
Atracia (-)
NOTES: Poor man's version of Flame Shoot.
-FLAME SHOOT-
AP: 9
HEAT: 16x1
AREA: Variable
SPECIAL: Air, Fire (150%)
LEARNED: Sha-Kon (39), Chrystie (32), Millidia (52), Phyress (-), Ehrde (-),
Lydia (46), Atracia (24)
NOTES: Shot that explodes when it connects, knocking the target into the air.
This had one of the highest damage modifiers of any move but may be
affected by the target's Fire resistance. While there's a bit of a
delay between pressing the button and the attack going off, the angle
it's aimed at adjusts itself to the target's position when it's fired
rather than when you pressed the button.
-FLAKE FLAP-
AP: 9
HEAT: 3x8 hits
AREA: Variable, spread
SPECIAL: Fire-element (20%)
LEARNED: Sha-Kon (24), Millidia (35), Phyress (-), Arcana (24), Lydia (23),
Atracia (-)
NOTES: Shoots a fan of small scattershot. All the hits will only connect if
your target is large - most will miss if it's small, down on the
ground, or too far away.
-BUSTER SHOOT-
AP: 9
HEAT: 18x1 hit
AREA: Variable
SPECIAL: Stun (10%)
LEARNED: Seraphic Gate item.
NOTES: Fires one large shot at the enemy.

SECTION 5: TIMELINE & ERRATA
===============================================================================
Timeline of Midgard as related to the Einherjar and their histories; some of it
differs from the profiles because if you talk to the Einherjar after release
or listen to them in combat, you'll get the real version of what happened
rather than the historical record. Contains massive spoilers for all the
Einherjar profiles, so read at your own risk.
I've tried to put things in chronological order when they occur during really
busy years. Items in parenthesis are implied but not stated.

Farant manages to confound a force of 5000 men with 100, forcing

Reinforcements arrive in the form of the other generals, and Farant
is killed by Crescent at the Artolia Road. However, this was actually
a decoy strategy allowing forces from Paltia and Arcdain to liberate
Lassen

-MISC ERRATA-
-the 17 Generals of Camille were famous for their exploits during the War of
Camille. Known Generals are: Celes, Guilm, Ehlen, Roland, Richelle, Adonis,
and Sigmund (Alm's father & Phyress' father-in-law)
-the generals of Rosetta were Red Radiance General Ehlen, Blue Radiance General
Ehrde, White Radiance General Crescent, and Black Radiance General Adonis.
Adonis was replaced by Celes after she killed him during the One Year War.
All followed Xehnon's plan to challenge the gods, even if said plan was a
trick by Odin
-Odin is ultimately responsible for an awful lot of "real" history that
differs from the profiles. Oh and he kicks puppies
-despite the fact that Psoron invented Burn Storm and Guard Reinforce, the
mages who lived before his time seem to have no trouble using those spells
===============================================================================
SECTION 6: EASTER EGGS
===============================================================================
Some of the locations or items that appeared in VP1 are related to various of
the Einherjar. There aren't quite as many towns/dungeons in 2, but they are
mentioned.
The majority of the Einherjar hail from around the mid-500 to 600 years by the
VP calendar, during which there were a number of rather messy wars. There's a
number of other people from all sorts of different eras between 100 and 1000,
but they tend to either cluster or just have nobody else to talk to.
-LOCATIONS---------------------------------------------------------------------
>Artolia
The kingdom doesn't exist yet, but the Artolia Road was the site of a number
of major battles around the 500-ish era
>Camille
Camille Hills was the site of the Battle of Camille and subsequently how a
fair number of the Einherjar received their claims to fame (any of the 17
Generals). Zunde's discovery of the Grand Sting sword probably also occurred
in the Oddrock Caves near the village.
>Audoula Temple on the Lake
Is in the same general location as the Sunken Temple in 1. Apparently the
entire thing simply sank.
>Arcdain Ruins
A number of the Einherjar were originally from this kingdom, which apparently
already fell to ruin by Silmeria's time. We're not sure why Liselia's there.
>Salerno Laboratory Ruins
Was apparently Woltar's hideout.
>Clockwork Mansion
Was probably built by Sha-Kon, as she's a mechanic and the mansion has a
distinctively Eastern (Hai Lan) design.
>Gorhia Cult HQ
Gorhia was the name of the region/province Khanon ruled until he tried to
become Pope.
>Amenti Tomb
Was probably the thing that Lwyn discovered before she went missing.
>Nethov Swamplands
Dragon originally released by Jessica (sort of), killed by Gerald, but the
poison that seeped from its heart destroyed all living things around the area.
-ITEMS-------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Mithra's Holy Water
Was, in fact, created by Mithra, as he gives you one after you release him.
>Atracia's Harp
Doesn't appear to be in evidence on her person.
>Moon Falx
The sword also exists in VP2, but we're not sure just what its connection
is to Falx.
>Azure Blade Grand Sting
Was originally found by Zunde.
>Lwyn's (Ruin) Fate
Japanese pronunciation (spelling) is the same as the character name.
