Valkyrie Profile is a role-playing game based (loosely) on Norse Mythology. It was originally released on the PlayStation in 2000 by tri-Ace, and later re-released as Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth for the PlayStation Portable in 2006.Ragnarok (the prophesied battle of gods that heralds The End of the World as We Know It) is approaching, and the god Odin requires a number of great soldiers to fight at his side. He assigns this divine task to Lenneth, one of his most loyal Valkyrie servants, who must descend to the mortal realm and sift through the souls of the recently deceased. Once she has found a suitably pure-hearted soul, she must train it for battle and then send her new warrior to the armies of Valhalla.However, unknown to Lenneth, there is more to her task than meets the eye: a number of sinister conspiracies are unfolding in both realms as the divine and the mortal manipulate events to achieve their own ends, and Lenneth must decide just who to trust and who to obey.It was unique in that it had a turn-based battle system that relied on timing attacks well to increase combo hits and thus increase damage. Like other games developed by tri-Ace (like Star Ocean and Radiata Stories), it featured extensive voice acting, which resulted in several classic quotes amongst dedicated role-players.The game has spawned a prequel/sequel (it's complicated), Valkyrie Profile 2: Silmeria, which was released on the PlayStation 2 in 2006. A third game, Valkyrie Profile: Covenant of the Plume was released for the Nintendo DS in 2009. There is also a 12 chapter manga adaptation.In 2016, Square Enix announced a new entry to the series entitled Valkyrie Anatomia: The Origin for iOS and Android devices. It serves as a prequel (for real this time, it seems like) and features a younger-looking Lenneth with a redesigned outfit. It was eventually given a worldwide release in 2019, courtesy of Wonder Planet.In 2022, Square Enix announced that the Valkyrie series would return to consoles for the first time in 16 years with Action RPG Valkyrie Elysium for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 on September 29th, and PC via Steam on November 11th. A port of Lenneth for PlayStation 4 and 5 (specifically based on the PSP version) was also released on December 22th, 2022 and was given to the purchasers of the Digital Deluxe edition of Elysium.There is a character sheet for the entire franchise, it contains tropes applying specifically to each individual character.Not to be confused with Valkyria Chronicles. | |

Katanas Are Just Better | |
| Valkyrie Profile (Video Game) / int_12a22bd8 | comment |
Katanas Are Just Better: Inverted in general; katanas are among the worst weapons in the game. The one oddity in general, yet a straight example to the trope is the Dragonbane katana, which is a very powerful early-game weapon for mages, and is unequippable by your party's samurai. | |

Weapon of X-Slaying | |
| Valkyrie Profile (Video Game) / int_17d5e071 | comment |
Weapon of X-Slaying: There's a handful of weapons named [blank]slayer, which when used will kill whatever enemy of that type it hits in one shot. They tend to be breakable, making them Too Awesome to Use except for against bosses. But, because of a bug in the way breakable weapons are trackednote It only checks when the enemy's turn comes up, so if you finish the boss off, it won't check., they can easily last you the whole game. There's another subset of weapons that have a Death effect based around the elemental weaknesses of an enemy rather than the type. One such sword, acquired about half-way through the game, turns the penultimate boss into a Curb-Stomp Battle for your side. | |

Sacrificial Revival Spell | |
| Valkyrie Profile (Video Game) / int_19195768 | comment |
Sacrificial Revival Spell: The ritual of "Soul Transfer". It kills the caster to revive someone who is dead, and someone who died due to this spell cannot be revived by the same means. Grey was a recipient of such a treatment from his lover/wife to be, Lemia. This somewhat crosses over with Balancing Death's Books - The Valkyrie can initiate it on the behalf of another, and does so for Belenus to revive his lover and maid Asaka. | |

Multiple Endings: Three total. Ending C has Freya destroy you in a Hopeless Boss Fight for constant disobedience. Ending B has you complete Odin's directive and win Ragnarok in his favor, following which Lenneth is promptly put to sleep (with hints to the true ending). Ending A is the Golden Ending, which is very difficult to achieve without a guide. | |

In the Back: When a character passes through the enemy (usually because of an attack, like say Lenneth's Moment Slide), the character will be behind the enemy and any follow-up attack he or she will do will be a successful, unblockable attack. There's also a skill that lets your character turn around to hit the enemy from behind. | |

Stripperiffic: Freya is the one female who stands out. She shows a lot of leg, but seeing as she is one of the most powerful gods, she doesn't really have to worry about getting damage. Aelia is half an example—she's wearing full-body plate mail from her waist up, but has her thighs completely exposed, and her official art even has a panty shot. Amusingly, the straightest example in the game is male; Arngrim wears gauntlets and shoulderpads, but his armor conveniently leaves a huge section of his chest and abdomen exposed. | |

Crapsack World | |
| Valkyrie Profile (Video Game) / int_21d70919 | comment |
Crapsack World: Children are sold into slavery, monsters are everywhere, amoral or outright evil aristocrats and wizards are doing gods know what to innocent people... Let's face it. Life on Midgard sucks. It's practically a Mercy Kill that Ragnarok is right around the corner, and you could argue that death, and becoming Einherjar, is the best thing to happen to some of the Valkyrie's party. It's like this because Odin had the Dragon Orb removed from the Palace of the Dragon, thus destabilizing Midgard and turning it into the Crapsack World you see in this game. | |

Chekhov's Gun: If you hold onto the Infernas sword found in Chapter 5, one of the final bosses in Ending A turns from a difficult boss to a One-Hit-Point Wonder. Lezard's Humonculi are a big one. A body served as Lenneth's temporary vessel when her soul was separated from her Valkyrie body on the path to the Golden Ending. | |

Game-Breaker | |
| Valkyrie Profile (Video Game) / int_2536f695 | comment |
The computer is only cheating a little bit; purple gems (dropped when an enemy is hit while knocked down) reduce the wait time your characters suffer after using their own PWS moves. With sufficient skill (plus abusing the extra hits Reverie gives you, which is why its use with melee fighters is a Game-Breaker; similar abuse comes from using Lucian, whose status as top-tier is due almost exclusively to one of his attacks, Shining Bolt, hitting thirteen times in an instant, pulling thirteen purple gems out of one button-press), you can string a large enough combo that you too can dish out a full set of PWS moves, including using one of the really hefty Great Magic spells like Meteor Swarm or Celestial Star, every turn. The only cheating involved is that the computer doesn't have to string together a large combo with plenty of midair hits. | |

| Valkyrie Profile (Video Game) / int_2639f6eb | comment |
Status Effects: Your characters can get stunned, petrified, frozen, or poisoned in battles. The Poison status ailment is much more dangerous in dungeon crawling than in encounter battles. Since your Einherjar are tied to Lenneth, any damage that she takes in the dungeon platforming sections also gets applied to the other characters. Poison is permanent until cured, it persists in the battles, and it ticks in intervals. | |

Karma Meter: Two of them. One measures how well you're doing your job, the other is how well the seal on Lenneth's memories is holding up. The second value also determines her battle quotes. If the Seal is high, she's gung-ho and ready to fight. If it's low, she starts questioning what she's really fighting for, and wonders whether there's a point to all the fighting. | |

Awesome, but Impractical | |
| Valkyrie Profile (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: The one-hit Purify Weird Soul attacks, like Aelia's, fall into this. While they look cool — Aelia turns into a dragon and lets out a Bahamut-style blast — the real power is in multi-hit attacks, which benefit more from party buffs and, more importantly, build up the heat gauge for more finishers. Also, the combo number determines the percentage bonus of subsequent attacks, so a PWS that hits for one strike is just not as good as one that hits for 20. They are made to be used last, especially the most powerful of all, Ether Strike. It's hinted at its Heat gauge increase: a measly 10%. | |

Sadly Mythtaken | |
| Valkyrie Profile (Video Game) / int_2ec87029 | comment |
Sadly Mythtaken: The game is nominally based on Norse Mythology. The game confuses the Jotuns, a race of giants, with the Vanir, a group of gods and goddesses heavily associated with nature. The myth of Ragnarok concerns a battle between the gods and the Jotuns. In other words, it is between the Aesir and Vanir against the Jotuns. The Aesir and Vanir waged war in the myths, but made peace long before Ragnarok. The Vanir's stronghold in Ending B is called "Jotunheim," while in the myths they're abode is Vanaheim. The character design of most of the Vanir makes them seem to be "giants" (e.g. they are much taller than the main character). Freya, in the lead-up to Ending A, calls their enemies "giants." Description for the Citadel of Flame states that Surt is the lord of Muspelheim (trans. "realm of fire") and that he has a volcano named for him, and in the myths, he is a fire giant. In the game, however, his stronghold is made of ice. Odin has one eye in the myths due to trading his other eye for wisdom. In the game, he has two eyes. Frey is a fertility god in the myths — and as such, phallic imagery is heavily associated with him. However, in the game, Frey is a young woman. In the myths, Mimir was killed in the Aesir-Vanir war, and he was a man. In the game, he is still alive and a woman. The game conflates the valkyries and the Norns. There could be either nine exactly or any number of valkyries — and there were only three Norns — in the myths. There are only three valkyries in this game. Neither the valkyries nor the Norn share a body in the myths, though the Norns notably work together when it comes to fate. In this game, the valkyries share one body and rule over fate itself. The Nibelungen Ring that Lenneth possess (which is also a rather unique case of Gameplay and Story Integration). In the myths, it was an Artifact of Doom that was cursed by its owner (Alberich in The Ring of the Nibelung, Andvari in The Saga of the Volsungs) to bring death to those who possess it. At some point it was given to Sigurd by Brynhild as a token of their marriage in both versions. In the game it is a ring that the valkyrie must wear when doing her missions, but holds a major secret where it acts as a seal to said valkyrie's memories after it got wiped out. | |

Underrated and Overleveled | |
| Valkyrie Profile (Video Game) / int_33c56b29 | comment |
Underrated and Overleveled: Averted in Hard Mode, where all the Einherjar start at Level 1, but played very straight in Normal and Easy modes. While Arngrim, the One-Man Army Guts Expy, starts at Level 1 because he's one of the two first recruits, other characters who were explicitly weaker than he was in life start at higher levels due to joining in later chapters. In general, the backstories of the Einherjar Valkyrie recruits do nothing to justify their higher and higher starting levels. | |

Randomly Drops: One of the possible results of juggling a foe is a treasure chest. Most of the items inside are useless or just mediocre equipment, although some of them can become Infinity -1 Equipment with alchemy (presuming you have a guide to show where to get the items needed to upgrade alchemy as well as what alchemizes into what). | |

This Cannot Be!: Barbarossa, Brahms and some of the later bosses do make quite a speech if you defeat them. In a non-villainous example, Lenneth, Freya and Arngrim will sometimes exclaim this should they fall in battle. | |

Ranged Emergency Weapon | |
| Valkyrie Profile (Video Game) / int_38c98481 | comment |
Ranged Emergency Weapon: Lenneth's ability to equip bows. While there's no enemies that are impossible to engage in melee range, an early boss battle (and some later battles) pits the party against a powerful mage protected by damage-soaking goons. The game advises you to switch Lenneth to a bow to take out the mage first, just in case you don't have a dedicated archer for one reason or another. | |

There's another subset of weapons that have a Death effect based around the elemental weaknesses of an enemy rather than the type. One such sword, acquired about half-way through the game, turns the penultimate boss into a Curb-Stomp Battle for your side. | |

Spoiler Cover: A small example. The cover of the PSP release of the game depicts Lenneth crying rather emotionally. This is a pretty big contrast to the Lenneth we know for the majority of the game who is very cold and stoic, letting us know something is going to happen to her to change that. | |

Updated Re Release: The 2006 PSP port, Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth. While it uses the Japanese PlayStation version that lacks the gameplay changes to the English version, it instead uses CGI full-motion video for the cutscenes instead of the anime cutscenes from the original. On 2018, the game received a port for the Android and IOS smartphones. There are several quality-of-life features that were added, such as: enhanced graphics, UI, text, and character portraits, the ability to skip cutscenes, and a Gameplay Automation mechanic. | |

Infinity -1 Sword | |
| Valkyrie Profile (Video Game) / int_480c69ba | comment |
Infinity -1 Sword: The two best staves you can get in the regular game both sort of count: The Ether Scepters have the highest magic power in the game, and allow for Great Magic, but will break 1/3 of the time they're used. The Unicorn Horns allow for Great Magic and are unbreakable, but their magic power is slightly weaker than the Ether Scepters. For most melee warriors, the Glare Sword is one. It's not quite as powerful as the best items in the game, but it's nearly there, it has the chance of instantly petriftying enemies for a One-Hit Kill, and it can be produced from the common Broken Armor. The only melee characters who can't equip it are spear-users, who can instead equip the similar Crimson Edge, similarly crafted from the Broken Spear. | |

Leaning on the Fourth Wall: A citizen in the tavern of Artolia talks about a time when he opened a treasure chest loaded with poison gas. Fortunately, he was crouching so it didn't affect him. In the dungeons, Lenneth can open such booby-trapped treasure chests, sometimes with an explosion or poison gas attached. One way for you to avoid the explosion? You have to make Lenneth crouch, just as the random guy mentioned earlier. | |

This also happens to many sorceresses, and Gandar. Mystina's considered the top tier sorceress, and since you only really need one, a lot of people don't bother with the others until Freya asks for you to send someone up to Valhalla. However, Lorenta and Nanami come with a Disc-One Nuke, and it's very likely you'll get Might Reinforce with Shiho first. | |

The Computer Is a Cheating Bastard | |
| Valkyrie Profile (Video Game) / int_6041e4f4 | comment |
The Computer Is a Cheating Bastard: Bosses can spam PWS every turn, and can instant-cast Great Magic PWS. The computer is only cheating a little bit; purple gems (dropped when an enemy is hit while knocked down) reduce the wait time your characters suffer after using their own PWS moves. With sufficient skill (plus abusing the extra hits Reverie gives you, which is why its use with melee fighters is a Game-Breaker; similar abuse comes from using Lucian, whose status as top-tier is due almost exclusively to one of his attacks, Shining Bolt, hitting thirteen times in an instant, pulling thirteen purple gems out of one button-press), you can string a large enough combo that you too can dish out a full set of PWS moves, including using one of the really hefty Great Magic spells like Meteor Swarm or Celestial Star, every turn. The only cheating involved is that the computer doesn't have to string together a large combo with plenty of midair hits. | |

Sequel Hook | |
| Valkyrie Profile (Video Game) / int_6293c185 | comment |
Sequel Hook: If the player sticks around after the credits during Ending A, a pair of monologues are delivered by Brahms and Lezard Valeth. Brahms ruminates about the new state of the world with Lenneth as the Creator, wonders how the goddess Hel will react, and is troubled by Lezard's schemes. Lezard reveals that he survived his death at the hands of the Dragon Orb by sacrificing the Philosopher's Stone, making him the only human whose soul is not controlled by Lenneth. He begins plotting how he will achieve ultimate power and make Lenneth his. Those plot points would go on to be explored in the sequel and Valkyrie Profile: Covenant of the Plume. | |

Trick Boss: The Final Boss in Ending A, Loki, can only be substantially harmed by Valkyrie's attacks. The rest of the party is pretty much just there to build up the combo meter for her Purify Weird Soul attack. If you use Sap Guard on him first, everyone in your party can make a significant dent on him (Though Valkyrie will still deal the most damage) If you have Unicorn's horn, Celestial Star can really take a huge chunk of his HP off, but again, not as much as Valkyrie. | |

Guide Dang It!: The Golden Ending requirements are extremely counterintuitive, requiring you to perform several seemingly unrelated tasks in quick succession, getting one of your Karma Meters to a certain level, and removing a very clearly plot-relevant character from your party almost as quickly as you get him, without so much as a hint from the game. How did anyone find this out without a guide? The "Seal Value" stat is especially bad: it's never mentioned in any of the tutorials, no one tells you what it does, and there are no hints as to how (or why) you make it go up or down. While most other steps involved in getting the Golden Ending are probably going to be followed by particularly thorough players (there's even a gentle nudge to send the proper character to Valhalla at the required time, since the requirements are a very close fit), the Seal Value requirements (let alone how one goes about meeting them) couldn't possibly be guessed. Getting some of the best items in the game via transmutation is not particularly intuitive, as the options don't seem all that great when viewed through the menu. This is because there are actually three lists, and which list is available depends on whether or not Lenneth has one of two particular items equipped. On top of that, the first of these two items requires backtracking through The Tower of Lezard Valeth (with no indication that may be necessary - also, since that area isn't in Easy mode, you have to be playing on Medium or Hard), and the second requires using that item to transmute an item that otherwise seems random and useless... twice (or purchase a seemingly useless item from the menu when it becomes available in Chapter 6). Naturally, none of this is ever alluded to in-game. | |

Can't Drop the Hero | |
| Valkyrie Profile (Video Game) / int_75ff5853 | comment |
Can't Drop the Hero: For the overwhelming majority of the game, Lenneth has to be in your party. The only times she's not is right at the beginning, when you play as Arngrim, and during part of the Golden Ending. This fact also ensures that, by the end of the game, she'll be at least 10 levels higher than anyone else in your party. | |

Balancing Death's Books | |
| Valkyrie Profile (Video Game) / int_7e851477 | comment |
Balancing Death's Books: The ritual of Soul Transfer is this trope: allowing someone else to live as you die in their place, and someone who gave their life to revive someone via Soul Transfer cannot be revived by the same means. The Valkyrie can initiate it herself on behalf of another, and does so for Belenus to revive his lover and maid Asaka. It somewhat crosses over with Sacrificial Revival Spell - Grey was the recipient of Soul Transfer from Lemia, who cast it herself and thus died to let Grey live. | |

Easy Level Trick | |
| Valkyrie Profile (Video Game) / int_8125d8f6 | comment |
Easy Level Trick: During the final dungeon of Ending A, you face That One Boss Bloodbane followed immediately by Fenrir. Fenrir normally will be about as difficult as Bloodbane aside from the fact that Lenneth will now have Levantine, the game's Infinity Minus One sword. However, if you are playing on Hard Mode, if you choose to keep the greatsword Infernas from the Citadel of Flame dungeon, it has the Slayer effect on all enemies that are weak to fire...which Fenrir is. This means that any greatsword user can instantly kill Fenrir, saving you a lot of trouble. | |

Linear Warriors, Quadratic Wizards | |
| Valkyrie Profile (Video Game) / int_812ee32b | comment |
Linear Warriors, Quadratic Wizards: Played through. Mages are okay at first, but once you get staves that allow them to use Great Magic without it breaking, they'll soon start ruining bosses. Heavy Arms and Lancers can eventually get a near end-game quality weapon with a little searching in Chapter 4, making them (with the exception of Grey) potentially powerful. Archers, meanwhile, tend to lag behind, majorly. With a few exceptions (Janus and Lenneth, who for a while is more powerful with a bow in her hands), they're utterly worthless for anything beyond increasing the combo gauge. In the end, mages and the other warriors (again, save archers) can get more unique in terms of attacks, but all of the mages you get have the same pool of magic and can all learn the same spells; no spell is unique to one sorcerer. Also, the power level of each mage is fixed and generally increases in the order you get them in (Jelanda is the weakest, then the three sorceresses from Yamato, Lorenta, Mystina, Lyseria, and Gandar is the most powerful mage in-game). | |

Dramatic Wind | |
| Valkyrie Profile (Video Game) / int_816c63d4 | comment |
Dramatic Wind: In the Prologue, wind starts blowing up drastically only after Lucian realizes that he and Platina are in the Weeping Lily Meadow, a place that has a lot of poisonous flowers. It keeps on blowing until the end, when Platina succumbs to the poison and dies. Most of the characters have this in their battle or victory poses. Mages are particularly prone to standing around looking drafty. For them, at least, it could be justified by them using their magic to look cool. | |

Large Ham | |
| Valkyrie Profile (Video Game) / int_823c6e3e | comment |
Large Ham: The invocations on about 75% of the Purify Weird Soul moves. Plus, there's several of Lenneth's In the Name of the Moon speeches to villains. To little surprise, Loki does this as well in the path to the best ending. You could argue that the final boss battle is over the right to become the patron God/Goddess of Ham. Lezard is hammy as hell with No Indoor Voice. All the spell throwers when they cast Great Magic, and a large number of Menu Magics as well; Jelanda crying out "Guard Reinforce!!" is something special. | |

What Happened to the Mouse? | |
| Valkyrie Profile (Video Game) / int_863fa679 | comment |
What Happened to the Mouse?: Lawfer's introduction story does not conclude with Lawfer's death, unlike almost every other playable character in the game, yet he ends up an Einherjar after it's over anyways. How the hell did he die? A developer interview confirms he was executed for helping Roland, Arngrim's brother, excape from jail though. Lenneth hears the name of a vampire early that had indirectly resulted in the death of Belenus, one of the first characters you recruit. She then commits this to memory to look out for her, but you never fight her. Apparently, the vampire in question was Belenus' dead wife. Celia's fate is never detailed; it's likely that she died during Ragnarok. Granted, there are a lot of other mortals whose fate is never explained, but you see Celia in so many recruitment scenes that it seems almost like you'll get her eventually! | |

Bait-and-Switch | |

Bait-and-Switch: After spending the game watching the mercenary Celia lose her comrades one by one (all of them joining your party as Einherjar) and becoming increasingly aggrieved by these losses, at the last event where it's just her and her nemesis she and the others had been hunting the whole game, you spend the entire event thinking this is finally her moment to die and become an Einherjar. It isn't. It's Grey, the man she and the others were hunting due to a miscommunication, who joins Lenneth after the ritual he was attempting goes wrong and kills him. The last we ever see of Celia is her sobbing over Grey's empty armor all alone. Poor Celia. | |

There Is No Kill Like Overkill | |
| Valkyrie Profile (Video Game) / int_8b606a51 | comment |
There Is No Kill Like Overkill: Juggling an enemy with a combo not only results in increasing the combo gauge and thus increasing the damage of each successive hit, but each such hit will also either release an XP gem (gives +5% experience for the fight, up to a maximum of +200% experience), a purple gem (reduces the wait time before a character can use their Purify Weird Soul/magic spells again), or a treasure chest. The end result is that the player is encouraged to extend a combo well past the point of necessity to max out the rewards for the fight as well as the opportunity to throw out Purify Weird Soul attacks every round. | |

Overshadowed by Awesome: Obviously happens to those that Can't Catch Up. Several champions you get early in the game, like Belenus, Janus, and Jun also aren't badnote Janus is considered the only useful archer in the game besides Lenneth., but they're often sent up to Valhalla, since in the early chapters of the game, you really don't have much of a choice. This also happens to many sorceresses, and Gandar. Mystina's considered the top tier sorceress, and since you only really need one, a lot of people don't bother with the others until Freya asks for you to send someone up to Valhalla. However, Lorenta and Nanami come with a Disc-One Nuke, and it's very likely you'll get Might Reinforce with Shiho first. | |

Levels Take Flight: The Celestial Castle. It's not long, but an unavoidable section of it is tiny platforms with nothing below them, and booby-trapped treasure chests that explode and knock you off the edges. Those rooms also feature flying enemies that will force you into battle, after which you will fall unless you have the presence of mind to re-grab onto the ropes you're supposed to use to cross the gaps. The game has a time limit, and every time you fall off you end up outside, and have to spend more time going in again. | |

Hard Mode Perks | |
| Valkyrie Profile (Video Game) / int_8dc2b0f2 | comment |
Hard Mode Perks: The dungeons exclusive to hard mode contain top tier equipment that just isn't available in normal or easy difficulties. An unintentional version is how you get characters at Level 1, instead of at your current level, in Hard Mode, which lets you train them more effectively. Between these two points, Hard Mode can be significantly easier than Normal Mode if you know what you're doing, while Easy Mode can be much more difficult — and it doesn't let you get the Golden Ending, to boot. Lyseria is the only party member found exclusively on Hard Mode. While she has one of the highest base magic stats, there are already a slew of mages to pick from, so her exclusivity loses its value. | |

Death or Glory Attack | |
| Valkyrie Profile (Video Game) / int_9446f847 | comment |
Death or Glory Attack: Any weapon with a low enough Attack Trust stat can turn all of the character's attacks into one - the stat shows how far below the regular attack stat any given attack could land, so a 100 will always attack at full power, while a 50 could be at only half power. Notably, the Infinity +1 Sword, the Angel Slayer, has both the highest attack and the lowest Attack Trust; any given attack with it has the chance of only doing 1 damage or pulling a One-Hit KO on nearly anything. | |

Combos | |
| Valkyrie Profile (Video Game) / int_991912ca | comment |
Combos: Attacks can be chained against one enemy, so it's possible for your entire party to gung-ho up a target for maximum damage. However, timing of the key presses is crucial, as some attacks can miss, interrupting the combo. Some weapons allow the character to have up to three attack combos per turn, although their respective button has to be pressed multiple times. Attacking enemies in the air via combos is known as "juggling", which gives you a chance of making the enemy drop more items or EXP crystals than usual. There's also a skill that extends a character's combo by giving them an additional hit when they attack. | |

Overrated and Underleveled | |
| Valkyrie Profile (Video Game) / int_9b8e2257 | comment |
Overrated and Underleveled: This is pretty much the fate of anyone recruited after Chapter 5, particularly in Hard Mode, due to the fact that their base stats are not that much higher than characters recruited much earlier, and the player will have had much less time to use the various Elite Tweak methods to fully take advantage of the higher stats. They're not even that useful in the Seraphic Gate, as there are three bonus characters there that blow all of the others out the window; it's better to just buff them instead. In particular, Lyseria and Gandar are talked up in-story as two of the greatest mages to have ever lived but, outside of those trying to get every sound clip for 100% Completion, hardly get used because Mystina is only a touch less powerful and recruited in Chapter 5 just after the Peninsula of Power Leveling opens up. | |

Late Character Syndrome: Generally anyone you recruit later in the game is going to suffer from this. While there are often ways to buff them up, it might often be better to just stick to the people you got around the middle parts of the game. | |

Half-Human Hybrid | |
| Valkyrie Profile (Video Game) / int_a2cbad1 | comment |
Half-Human Hybrid: Lezard intentionally makes his homunculi of this genetic stock. Divine power + human ability to "grow" = power. Yumei is half human, and thus can turn into either human or mermaid at will. Lezard reveals that Odin is half elf, which explains why he could grow stronger, as gods tend to remain static with their divine power. Lenneth becomes one as per Ending A (and the ending that is considered canon to Valkyrie Profile: Silmeria). After rescuing her essence from Hrist, Lezard and Mystina place her into the remaining homunculus that Lenneth spared and Mystina stole. This gives Lenneth power to become the Creator. | |

One-Hit Kill | |
| Valkyrie Profile (Video Game) / int_a414c3f0 | comment |
For most melee warriors, the Glare Sword is one. It's not quite as powerful as the best items in the game, but it's nearly there, it has the chance of instantly petriftying enemies for a One-Hit Kill, and it can be produced from the common Broken Armor. The only melee characters who can't equip it are spear-users, who can instead equip the similar Crimson Edge, similarly crafted from the Broken Spear. | |

Celia even mentions two other people not detailed by the game, presumed dead. Lezard Valeth sacrifices the Philosopher's Stone in order to survive Ragnarok. | |

Evolving Attack | |
| Valkyrie Profile (Video Game) / int_abc66b07 | comment |
Evolving Attack: Lenneth's signature attack has three levels, the final of which is only available against the Final Boss and the Bonus Dungeon. You get different versions depending on the weapon Lenneth equips. General rule of thumb is that if the weapon allows three attacks, it usually allows her to use the second level of Nibelung Valesti (with few exceptions, for instance the sword Valkyrie Favor only gives the first level version despite allowing for three attacks). The bonus weapons in Seraphic Gate are the only ones that allow the third level of the finisher. | |

Breakable Weapons | |
| Valkyrie Profile (Video Game) / int_af8974a3 | comment |
Breakable Weapons: Weapons forged by humans, including slayer weapons and staves that allow Great Magic use. Notably, they can only break if the battle doesn't end the turn they are used on. This makes weapons that are powerful against specific enemy types very broken as they will generally kill their target in a single turn, meaning you don't have to worry about them breaking as long as you don't use them outside of specifically killing enemies they are meant for. | |

Break Meter: While there is no visible meter per se, you do see the special effects whenever the enemy blocks changing color from white to red whenever they block succeeding attacks. It means that repeatedly attacking a blocking enemy will eventually result in a Guard Break, stunning them.noteIf you continue attacking the enemy after the guard break but before the stun animation, the enemy will be stunned after you finish your attacks! This is even highlighted in the tutorial dungeon's boss. | |

Man of a Thousand Voices | |
| Valkyrie Profile (Video Game) / int_dd26fd14 | comment |
Man of a Thousand Voices: Well, not quite, but the English version of the game uses eleven voice actors (all from TAJ Productions aka 4Kids Entertainment, which in general has a small acting pool) to voice the massive cast, including the extra voices heard during sequences when Lenneth picks up a new Einherjar. The most used actress is Tara Jayne; she voices all three of the sorceresses from Hai-Lan, the boy archer Llewelyn, and most of the secondary female voices heard during Spiritual Concentration sequences. Eric Stuart has the fewest characters voiced, but they differ significantly from each other vocally (Lucian sounds like Brock, while Grey has a deep, hammier voice). | |

Culture Chop Suey: The world is heavily based on Norse Mythology, but the island of Hai-Lan has a distinctly Japanese feel, with katanas, samurai, and shrine maidens. The ruins of Akhetanan are based on Egyptian mythology. | |

Training Dummy: Accessed from the party menu, immortal versions of the first monsters in the game can be practiced on in order to figure out how to do your combos effectively in order to get out your "Purify Weird Soul" moves. Unfortunately, it's a feature that's lacking in Valkyrie Profile 2: Silmeria. | |

Helpful Mook: Lenneth can freeze or crystalize the Pre Existing Encounters in dungeons, and they become temporary makeshift platforms for her to stand on and reach higher vantage points. This often becomes a key mechanic or requirement in some platforming puzzles. | |

The Nibelungen Ring that Lenneth possess (which is also a rather unique case of Gameplay and Story Integration). In the myths, it was an Artifact of Doom that was cursed by its owner (Alberich in The Ring of the Nibelung, Andvari in The Saga of the Volsungs) to bring death to those who possess it. At some point it was given to Sigurd by Brynhild as a token of their marriage in both versions. In the game it is a ring that the valkyrie must wear when doing her missions, but holds a major secret where it acts as a seal to said valkyrie's memories after it got wiped out. | |

Check-Point Starvation | |
| Valkyrie Profile (Video Game) / int_f09021fe | comment |
Checkpoint Starvation: The first part of the game, from Valhalla to acquiring your first Einherjar, is a mixture of long unskippable cutscenes, tutorials, two battles, and sparse save points. Your first chance at saving the game in between this long intro sequence only happens when Jelanda, disguised as Angela, falls asleep in Arngrim's bed... And then the next save happens when you finally recruit your first two Einherjar and proceed to the Artolian Mountain Ruins. Depending on your reading speed, the actual dungeon exploration only kicks in when you're already 40 to 70 minutes into the game. | |

But Now I Must Go: The game is deliberately set up around this trope: you collect dead warriors to fight in your party, you level them up a bit, then you send them off to Valhalla and must make do without them. So Long, and Thanks for All the Gear factors into it as well; they rank better if you send them off with nicer equipment. Fortunately, they return in the final dungeon. | |

Redemption Equals Death | |
| Valkyrie Profile (Video Game) / int_f1492605 | comment |
Redemption Equals Death: Played straight for most of the time and inverted if you look at the Einherjar business from another perspective. Einherjar are warriors chosen by the Valkyries, so if they die, it's technically a chance to live on after death, like an afterlife. However, the Einherjar need to have some good qualities so that they can be sent to Asgard. It's not a problem for a lot of them, since they start out with some positive traits worthy of becoming a warrior. Some mortals play or invoke this trope, like Arngrim and Badrach, who have questionable morality even at death's door, yet Lenneth choose to have them as her warriors regardless. | |

Mercy Kill: Happens a whole lot, as several of your Einherjar suffer right at death's door, if not already suffering long term in any aspect while they were still alive. The best-case scenario?

Earn Your Happy Ending: Ending A, reveals the greater truth behind many plot points and gives a satisfying resolution to Lenneth's character arc. Ending B, by contrast, ends right after defeating the Final Boss of that route, with you earning nothing more than a simple congratulations following which Lenneth's put to sleep. And as for Ending C, that's a borderline Non-Standard Game Over. | |

Non-Indicative Difficulty | |
| Valkyrie Profile (Video Game) / int_fc2f4def | comment |
Non-Indicative Difficulty: Though the enemies are stronger in Hard Mode, a few other factors conspire to make it easier than Easy and Normal. First, while all the recruited characters start at Level 1, in practice this means that you get that many more chances to exploit equipment that gives bonuses to DME and CP at each level up. Second, more dungeons means more battles and both more regular experience and Non-Combat EXP. Third, the hard-mode-exclusive dungeons hold most of the game's really strong equipment. As a result, characters in a hard run-through get more experience in total, have more health at the same level, learn stat-boosting skills faster, and are using near Game-Breaker equipment unavailable to their easy/normal mode counterparts. | |
