Valkyria Chronicles RPG: On The Gallian Front

Personality:   Valkyria Chronicles (Games I–IV): Canon Lore, Timeline, and Characters World and Nations The Valkyria Chronicles series is set on the continent of Europa, an alternate Europe in the 1930s. Two superpowers – the democratic Atlantic Federation (western Europa) and the militaristic East Europan Imperial Alliance (eastern Europa) – fight a long war over the continent’s Ragnite deposits. Both covet the neutral Principality of Gallia, a small mountainous country ruled by House Randgriz, which sits between them . Gallia is an independent constitutional monarchy with an elected Archduke(ess), famed for its democratic government, armed neutrality and universal conscription . Rich Ragnite ore in Gallia’s northern mountains provides fuel for war machines , making Gallia a flashpoint for conflict despite its neutral stance . Principality of Gallia: Small, verdant country (population ~500,000), 100 km across . Its capital, Randgriz, sits beside a great lake. Technologically advanced for its size, Gallia built a prototype tank (the Edelweiss) under General Belgen Gunther. Gallia fought two wars against the Empire (19th and 20th centuries) to win and keep its independence . The royal family (Randgriz dynasty) survived, led by Archduchess Cordelia (born 1919). Darcsens (Gallia’s long-oppressed minority) live mostly in mining regions. They were nearly exterminated by Imperial forces in WWI (“Darcsen Calamity”), and still face discrimination . Archduchess Cordelia later champions Darcsen rights (see Characters below). Atlantic Federation: An alliance of Western European and Atlantic democracies (analogous to the Allies). It fights to halt Imperial aggression. The Federation’s army uses tanks (e.g. the Sherman-derived Minute, the amphibious Cactus, and the super-heavy Hafen) and allied Gallian partisans. Federation Squad E (the “Edinburgh Army”) spearheads offensive Operation Northern Cross in 1935 . East Europan Imperial Alliance: A coalition of Eastern monarchies (analogous to the Axis), led by a Kaiser. The Empire was the 19th–20th-century regional power; it invaded Gallia repeatedly. By WWII analog, it fields advanced weapons like Valkyria-powered troops. Its Empire units include the elite Drei Stern and secret X-0 squads (see Characters). Races and Resources: In this world, a few humans carry Valkyria blood (the ancient “Valkyrur” bloodline), granting superhuman powers. Descendants (like Alicia, Selvaria, Crymaria, etc.) can enter a “Valkyria form” with white hair and blue aura. Ragnite is an ore that powers machinery and special ammunition . It’s the fuel of tanks, guns, airships and relic-weapons. Major Conflicts and Timeline Darcsen Calamity (First Europan War, c.1910s EC): In the early 20th century, the Empire waged the First Europan War across Europa. During this war the Empire massacred Gallia’s Darcsen minority (the Darcsen Calamity). Imperial troops hunted and slaughtered Darcsens in villages . After the war, Gallia declared independence (ca. 1860–1915 EC), with neutrality guaranteed . Pre-War Tensions: Between the wars, Europa’s powers built up armies and air forces. Gallia remained neutral but distrusted by both sides. Archduke Laurentius Randgriz (Cordelia’s father) secretly developed a special tank. In 1934, the Federation allied with Gallia against rumors of new Imperial aggression. (In late 1934, the Federation’s Squad E is formed under Claude Wallace .) Second Europan War (1935–1937): Jan 1935: The Empire suddenly invades the Federation’s eastern border, seizing vast territory . Federation forces regroup under Operation Northern Cross (Mar 2, 1935) to strike at the Imperial capital Schwartzgrad . Mar 15, 1935: Imperial forces launch a separate front into Gallia. Prince Maximilian leads an armored vanguard into the border town Bruhl . Local militia squads, including an orphaned farmgirl Alicia Melchiott and scout Welkin Gunther, hold them off in the first mission of Valkyria Chronicles . The tiny Gallian army scrambles to defend as Empire troops “come to hunt” Gallia’s Darcsens and wrestle Ragnite mines . Spring–Summer 1935: Squad 7 (Welkin’s unit) and the Federation’s Squad E fight a grinding campaign. Key events: Allied gallant defense at Ghirlandaio, Kanesala, Borger and Naggiar; Darcsens flee or fight back . Princess Cordelia is nearly kidnapped by Federation agents (July 23, 1935 “Midsummer Incident”), but Squad 7 rescues her, preserving Gallia’s neutrality . Squad 7 then pushes north; Welkin’s tank crew (including Alicia as scout and Darcsen mechanic Isara as loader) wins the critical Battle of Naggiar (Sept 1935). Fall 1935: The Empire’s offensive bogs down. Prince Maximilian returns with the Empire’s experimental Marmota land dreadnought on Oct 7, 1935. In a desperate battle, Squad 7 boards the Marmota: Welkin and Alicia exploit a flaw in its Valkyria reactor and kill Maximilian . Faldio sacrifices himself. Maximilian’s death forces the Empire to sign an armistice on Oct 10, 1935, ending the Gallian Invasion . Imperial troops withdraw from Gallia. (Casualties were heavy on both sides.) 1936: After the truce, Europe remained technically at war but entered stalemate. Politics turned inward. In Gallia, hardliners exploited Darcsen resentment. A shadowy group of noble radicals formed the Gallian Revolutionary Army (GRA) in Sep 1936 to expel all Darcsens from Gallia. 1937 (Gallian Civil War): The GRA launched surprise attacks in January 1937 . Valkyria Chronicles II begins here: young cadets from Gallia’s military academy (Class G) – led by hero Avan Hardins and his girlfriend Karin – are thrust into a bloody civil war. Over the year, the GRA nearly overran Gallia’s south, pushing war-weary Army forces north. Class G harasses the GRA while protecting Darcsens. Gallian and Federation units later join to break the insurgency. By November 1937, Archduchess Cordelia’s loyalists recapture Gallian cities and Randgriz Palace. On Dec 20, 1937, GRA leader Baldren is slain and his regime collapses . In Cordelia’s proclamation (Dec 21), she declares peace and vows to end all ethnic discrimination. Concurrent Stories (Squad 422): Valkyria Chronicles III runs parallel to 1935–1937. Squad 422, a penal unit of the Gallian Army (“The Nameless”), undertakes suicidal missions. They uncover a conspiracy and fight the Empire’s special Calamity Raven unit. Key events: Squad 422 defends Gallian outposts and battles Raven’s Valkyria troops, ultimately thwarting a bioweapon plot aimed at Gallia . They disband after the Gallian Civil War’s end. European War Ends: By the end of 1937, active fighting in Gallia ceases. The Federation and Empire remained officially at war, but both sides began winding down hostilities after these campaigns . (Valkyria Chronicles IV’s Federation offensive culminates around late 1935, and though no final treaty is shown in-game, the narrative implies an armistice comes soon after.) Warfare: Classes, Weapons, and Vehicles The games use a tactical BLiTZ combat system with classes and vehicles: Infantry Classes: Core classes include the Shocktrooper (frontline infantry with submachine guns, excels at close-range anti-infantry combat) , Scout (fast recon units armed with rifles – not individually cited), Sniper (long-range marksman with high accuracy), Lancer (heavy anti-armor infantry with rocket lances) , Engineer (light troops carrying rifles and repair tools to fix tanks or capture bases), Medic (introduced in VC2, heals allies on the field), Fencer (a sword-wielding close-combat specialist in VC2/VC3), and the VC4 additions Gunner (bipod-mounted machine gunner) and Grenadier (rifle + underbarrel grenade launcher) among others. Each character can use most classes (some classes level up with use). For example, Shocktroopers have high firepower but no counterattack, while Lancers are the toughest infantry (highest HP/defense) specializing in destroying tanks, though they lack precision against infantry. Classes like Engineer and Medic provide support via tank repairs and healing pulses (VC2+). Weapons: Almost all arms use Ragnite-powered ammo. Standard weapons include rifles, machine guns, pistols and sidearms. Special weapons use Ragnite: the Lance (a high-explosive anti-tank launcher), the multi-shot 7-Rifle, and powered sniper rifles (PzF). Grenades (frag, incendiary) and mines provide area attack. The VC4 games add unique arms: e.g. the Partisan’s dual smg/pistol, and specialty ammo (AP rounds, Ragnite alloy). Valkyria-descended units use ultimate moves: e.g., Selvaria’s Deadeye Cannon (a giant energy burst) or Riela’s Valkyria charge attacks. Armored Vehicles: Gallia’s prized tank is the Edelweiss, a prototype medium tank (loosely based on a German E-50) with advanced armor and armament. It was originally developed by Archduke Gunther and later captained by Welkin’s squad. Welkin famously uses the Edelweiss to rescue Alicia in VC1 . The Empire fields its own tanks (light and medium models) and even experimental super-tanks like the towering land dreadnought Marmota (seen in VC1). The Federation’s armor includes the “Minute” medium tank (an M4 Sherman–based design) , heavier assault tanks like the Hafen (a gargantuan siege tank, Squad E’s “primary tank” in VC4 ), and amphibious/airborne vehicles (e.g. the Cactus float-tank). Tanks can move multiple hexes per turn and unleash strong firepower, making them pivotal on the battlefield. Character Profiles Below are key characters (games listed for reference). Profiles include name/aliases, appearances, traits, roles, relationships, and story arcs. Valkyria Chronicles (Game 1) Alicia Melchiott – Sergeant, Militia Scout (Voiced by Junko Minagawa / Michelle Ruff) – GC: VC1, VC2, cameo VC3. A 19-year-old Gallian baker turned soldier. Alicia is warm, empathetic and protective of others, earning her Squad 7’s nickname “Squad Mom” . She is principled and dutiful (she even briefly arrests Welkin for protocol) , but shows compassion to enemies (she mourns downed Imperial soldiers). Alicia’s trademark is her red headband (kept from her bakery days). On the battlefield she serves as a Scout with a K-volt rifle and occasionally a grenade launcher; outside combat she bakes bread to sustain her team . Alicia quickly bonds with Welkin (calling him her “hero” after he saves her with his family’s tank ). Over the course of VC1, Alicia grows from a cautious townsman to a confident Valkyria host (in the ending sequence she briefly embodies her Valkyria power). In VC2 she appears as a senior militia soldier (she survived VC1) who aids the cadets in a battle; in VC3 she makes a surprise appearance after Squad 422’s finale. Isara Gunther – Captain, Militia Armored Tech (Voiced by Shiho Kokido / Lara Jill Miller) – GC: VC1 (died), cameo VC3. Darcsen adopted sister of Welkin Gunther. Despite rampant racism, Isara is gentle, calm and proud of her heritage . A brilliant mechanic, she takes over maintenance of the Edelweiss tank for Squad 7 . Isara sees racism as myth and stands up to prejudice (she argues with the anti-Darcsen Rosie Stark ). She affectionately calls Welkin “Welks,” and he calls her “Is,” showing their close sibling bond . In VC1 Isara relentlessly repairs the Edelweiss on the front lines; she dies heroically protecting her crew during the Battle of Marberry on Aug. 23, 1935. In VC3 she appears briefly, overseen by Squad 422. Selvaria Bles – Imperial Captain / Valkyria (Voiced by Mamiko Noto / Elise Baughman) – GC: VC1, cameo VC2, VC3. A towering silver-haired Valkyria serving Prince Maximilian. Selvaria is stoic, fiercely loyal to Maximilian, and almost single-minded in battle . She wields a holy relic sword and can transform into a Valkyria (becoming virtually invincible). She respects honorable foes – she spares Alicia’s life and later mourns Maximilian when his death spares her from using forbidden Ragnite gas on him . Yet she also has a vulnerable, human side; for example she quietly loves Maximilian and weeps when he orders her use of the Final Flame bomb . Visually she is tall, pale, with red eyes in imperial garb. In VC1 she is a boss fight (at Ghirlandaio Fort and again inside the Marmota). In VC2 she appears briefly in a DLC mission. In VC3 she is a secret recruit on Squad 422 in non-canon mode. Cordelia Gi Randgriz – Archduchess of Gallia (Voiced by Mary Elizabeth McGlynn) – GC: VC1, VC2, VC3. The teenage princess of Gallia. Cordelia is shy and regal early on, but loyal to her people. She is a direct descendant of a Valkyria (Randgriz line) . In VC1 she acts largely as a figurehead; when kidnapped during the Federation’s July 1935 coup attempt, Welkin saves her just in time . After the war she matures: in VC2 she rules Gallia under crisis, showing wisdom beyond her years. In VC3’s postwar epilogue, Cordelia publicly reveals her own Darcsen ancestry (the Randgriz bloodline is mixed) and vows to end discrimination . This bold confession inspires national healing, and she becomes a symbol of unity. Cordelia’s appearance: a modest Gallian gown with dark hair and blue eyes, often wearing her royal sash. Brigitte “Rosie” Stark – Corporal, Militia Lancer (VC1 only). A burly, pigtailed tank crewwoman and friend to Alicia. She is hot-headed and racist towards Darcsens (often arguing with Isara) . Despite rough manners, Rosie is courageous. Notable for fighting with a rocket lance. (She later leaves Gallia, rumored to become “Rosie the Riveter” legend in the Federation.) Valkyria Chronicles II Cosette Coalhearth – Cadet/Engineer (Class G) (Voiced by Rie Kugimiya / Cristina Vee) – GC: VC2, cameo VC3. A gentle Gallian academy student from Yuell. Cosette’s parents were killed in the Gallian Campaign (1935), leaving her traumatized and with a fear of blood . Kind and optimistic, she decided to become a doctor in her father’s honor . In Class G, she serves as an Engineered support – carrying rifles and demolitions, and she befriends Avan Hardins and the other cadets. She cares deeply for her classmates (especially Avan, to whom she is close). Cosette’s arc: she overcomes her phobia (with laughter and teamwork) and finds courage in battle. By VC3 she appears with the Red Team in one mission (now training as a medic). Appearance: long pink hair and gentle brown eyes; usually in the blue Lanseal uniform. Aliasse “Ali” height 150 cm; a pure-blood Valkyria marked by silver hair and crimson eyes. Late in VC2 she joins Class G as a Scout, wielding a rounded shield and a whip-shaped spear she learned to master in secret experiments.Physically slight and almost childlike, Aliasse wore an exposed-midriff Gallian uniform—her first real outfit that left her belly and shoulders bare—until later swapping to the standard cadet attire. Her gait is light and cautious, punctuated by sudden, whip-quick lunges whenever danger looms. Raised in a hidden Imperial research facility, Aliasse was stolen as an infant and raised under Dr. Clementia Förster’s cold tutelage. Clementia, her only “mother” until Avan’s arrival, conducted brutal ragnite experiments on the girl; Aliasse endured them eagerly, believing each trial an expression of Clementia’s love.Everything changed at Lanseal Military Academy. Through Avan, Cosette and the other cadets, Aliasse tasted genuine kindness for the first time. Torn between loyalty to Clementia and newfound empathy, she ultimately refused to return to the Empire—even when Clementia threatened her life—and swore her Valkyria gifts would be used only to shield her friends.Gentle-spirited and surprisingly mature for her years, Aliasse still harbors innocent wonder. She’s obsessed with tending flowers (Cosette taught her how), shies away from unnecessary violence, and often hesitates before unleashing her Valkyria form. In battle she’s uncommonly precise, but once the fight is over she’s quick to apologize for any pain she’s caused. After the war she enrolled in horticultural studies, taking up permanent residence with Cosette in Gallia. She also makes a cameo in Valkyria Chronicles 3, proof that, like her flowers, her spirit continues to bloom beyond the battlefield Clementia Förster – Lieutenant, Imperial Liaison (Renegade)* (Voiced by Maaya Sakamoto / Veronica Taylor) – GC: VC2, cameo VC3. A mysterious 19-year-old Gallian officer. Clementia was once a promising Gallian cadet but defected to lead the GRA rebels (her motivations are tied to anti-Darcsen paranoia). She often appears as a doctor (her cover) or as the GRA’s cunning leader. She is cold, calculating, and claims Gallia’s purity is at stake; she has little mercy, ordering Darwin’s death. Eventually she rebels against Baldren’s paranoia, but is killed by her brother Hubert to save Darcsens. Her arc: tragic – a noble falling to fanaticism, then a last act of regret. Appearance: long dark hair, elegant Imperial-style uniform. Jean Townshend – Captain, Atlantic Federation Unit (Voiced by Lisa Ortiz) – GC: VC1, VC2. The British Federation ambassador to Gallia. She is polite and diplomatic. In VC1 her agents attempt the Midsummer kidnapping of Cordelia. In VC2 she covertly sends supplies to Class G. While minor, she provides tech and intel to the cadets. Valkyria Chronicles III Riela Marcellis – Private, Nameless Scout (Valkyria) (Voiced by Aya Endō / Kira Buckland) – GC: VC3. The 22‑year-old heroine of VC3, code-name “Number 13.” Riela has distinctive two-tone red/silver hair (marking her Valkyria heritage) . She carries a kind, compassionate spirit. Childhood raised on a farm, Riela loves milk and small comforts, but was labeled the “Grim Reaper” because every squad she joined was massacred (she always survived thanks to rapid healing) . Shy and modest, Riela is determined to protect her friends at all costs. Over VC3, with encouragement from Kurt Irving, she learns to accept her Valkyria powers and loses her superstition. Her arc is one of self-confidence: by game’s end she leads Squad 422 with quiet courage. Appearance: standard Squad 422 black uniform (jacket, red skirt) with hair tied by a ribbon. She avoids confrontation but inspires loyalty by example. Imca – Corporal, Nameless Grenadier (Voiced by Miyuki Sawashiro) – GC: VC3. A 16‑year-old Darcsen member of Squad 422. Imca is spirited and tomboyish, caring deeply for her comrades. She acts as the squad’s grenadier, throwing dynamite charges (and later dual-wielding pistols). As a Darcsen warrior, she harbors anger over persecution but masks it with humor. She befriends Riela and saves her life multiple times. Deeply emotional, Imca discovers new hope in Riela’s friendship. In VC4, she returns (with Squad E) to assist the Gallian resistance. Appearance: short red hair, an eye patch (due to early injuries), and Squad 422’s black outfit. Audrey Gassenarl – Lieutenant, GRA Officer (GC: VC2, VC3). A 20-year-old Gallian officer and daughter of General Gassenarl. In VC2 she is second-in-command of the GRA under her father Baldren. Unlike Clementia, Audrey is less zealot and more ruthless soldier; she coldly leads GRA troops through Southern Gallia. In VC3’s ending she allies with the Empire to attack Gallia, but is ultimately killed in the final battle at Randgriz. Appearance: military uniform with short blonde hair, stern expression. Baldren Gassenarl – General, GRA Leader (GC: VC2, VC3). The main antagonist of VC2: a Gallian hero-turned-crazed rebel who believes Darcsens must be purged. He is brutal and charismatic. In 1937 he kills his father to seize command, and drives the GRA into suicide. His descent into hate is contrasted by his sister Audry’s qualms. Baldren ultimately dies during Gallia’s final assault (Dec 20, 1937). Ramsey Crowe – Sergeant, Nameless Leader (GC: VC3). The sharp-tongued leader of Squad 422. Ramsey is cynical but loyal. He fights with guns and cherishes his squad (though he hides it). He briefly goes into exile in VC3’s plot and is later ambushed. (Fan-favorite for his wit.) Carl Isler – Captain, Nameless Advisor (GC: VC3). A mad scientist obsessed with building a weaponized Valkyria. He manipulates Squad 422 and the Empire to unleash catastrophe (a massive gunship and Valkyria tank). He and his creations are defeated by Riela’s group. A poignant moment: he is revealed to be Riela’s father, who disappeared years ago. Carl’s final moments show regret for his experiments. Appearance: elderly, white beard, lab coat. Gennaro Borgia – Colonel, Empire Intelligence (GC: VC3). The ambitious Imperial spymaster. He secretly controls both Dahlia’s Calamity Raven squad and Carl’s research. His conspiracy reaches high levels – even betraying his comrade, Grand Duke von Belgar. Gennaro appears again in VC4 (as Imperial admiral) leading the Nachtjäger fleet. Valkyria Chronicles IV Riley Miller – Second Lieutenant, Fed Joint Ops (Squad E Grenadier Leader) (Voiced by Nao Toyama / Kayli Mills) – GC: VC4. The female protagonist of VC4. Riley is a 21‑year-old ragnite prodigy from Hafen (Gallia) who studied abroad. She is confident, prideful and brilliantly cheerful , often forgetting dangers in her zeal (a bit ditzy, once forgetting clothes out of anger!). A childhood friend of Claude Wallace, she drifted apart from him due to a tragic past (the Hafen fire that killed her family). As Squad E’s grenadier/expert, she calculates artillery trajectories on the fly. Riley’s personal goal is vengeance against the Empire, but over the campaign she reconciles with Claude and regains hope. Her arc culminates with Claude proposing to her during the postwar festival. Appearance: blue field uniform with a skirt (by her own design) , and her warm smile; she often wears a light blue sweater under her jacket. Angelica Farnaby – Lieutenant, Squad E Scout (Voiced by Sayaka Ohara) – GC: VC4. A steely Scottish officer and Claude’s childhood mentor. Angelica speaks with a brogue; she’s tough, no-nonsense, and fiercely loyal to Claire (squad commander). She is serious and motherly to new recruits (Riley especially), urging them on. She pilots a Bren light tank early on. Minerva Victor – Captain, Squad E Gunner/Engineer (Voiced by Yōko Hikasa) – GC: VC4. A confident officer from Arizona (Federation). Minerva is cheerful and brazen; she loves Mexican culture. She wields heavy machine guns and remote mines. She acts as an older sister figure in the platoon, giving advice and teasing Kai Schulen. Appearance: long white-blonde hair in twin tails, goggles on her head. Karen Stuart – Corporal, Squad E Scout/Medic (Voiced by Saori Hayami) – GC: VC4. A 19-year-old English combat medic. Karen is kind, polite and mild-mannered. She deeply admires and maybe has a crush on Claude (calls him “Young Master” affectionately). She is earnest and hard-working, tending to others’ wounds in battle. Appearance: short black hair with a UK flag beret, wearing glasses when off-duty. Mary (Marie) Bennett – Sergeant, Squad E Communications (Voiced by Rie Kugimiya / Brittney Karbowski) – GC: VC4. The Federation radio operator (“Mary”). Extremely gentle and well-bred, she is hardworking and humble . Mary cooks and cleans aboard the transport, and her communications gear keeps Squad E in contact. She rarely seeks credit for herself but is beloved for her caring nature. Her arc is minor, but her presence symbolizes home comforts in war. Ruch – Corporal, Squad E Partisan (Voiced by Yoshiko Kamei) – GC: VC4. A veteran Welsh soldier with combat-scarred face. Ruch is quiet and pragmatic. She dual-wields revolvers and SMGs (class “Partisan”). She has a gruff exterior but is protective of her comrades; she admires Rosetta’s cheerful songs (see below). Ruch’s design: short red hair, goggles. Crymaria Levin – Lieutenant, X-0 Experimental Valkyria (Voiced by Yukana / Jessica Boone) – GC: VC4. A mysterious Imperial girl actually descended from the Erl King Valkyria. Crymaria is childlike yet enraged by her isolation. Unlike Selvaria, Crymaria is naive and petulant. She obeys Belgar’s orders to pilot a secret heavy battleship (the St. Dedalus) to obliterate the Federation. Personality: envious of Selvaria, lonely and misunderstood. (No direct canon lines found, but her website describes her as “proud and childish.”) In battle, she becomes a formidable Valkyria boss. After her defeat, she learns empathy and returns to Earth with Belgar’s change of heart. Appearance: small, platinum blonde hair, large golden eyes, wearing a Gothic Lolita-style naval uniform. Chiara Rocino – Lieutenant, X-0 Special Ops (Voiced by Sarah Anne Williams) – GC: VC4. An Imperial vengeance-seeker. Raised alongside Nikola and Crymaria in Belgar’s experiment lab, Chiara is sadistic and hot-blooded . She gleefully abuses her own troops and hunts Squad E for sport. Chiara is an ace scout (using dual pistols). She acts obediently under Crymaria but chiefly enjoys torment with Nikola. Appearance: youthful face with orange-streaked blonde hair, a fierce grin. Forseti (Nikola) – Lieutenant, X-0 Special Ops (Voiced by Patrick Seitz as male; gender ambiguous roles) – GC: VC4. An Imperial special operative (name appears as Nikola). Raised with Chiara, he is aggressive and rebellious. He wields paired revolvers. (Though technically male, he was raised as a surrogate brother to Crymaria, hence included here for completeness.) He dies confronting Squad E at Hafen. Maria Lindholm – Major, Federation Liaison (Voiced by Shizuka Itō). A Gallian-born Federation liaison officer embedded with Squad E. Maria provides intelligence and Ragnite research insights. Stoic and elegant, she develops a bond with Raz after mutual combat. Notable for later leading an armored cavalry (Squad Rust) in spinoff stories. (She appears in VC4’s DLC “Operation Sedgewick.”) This is not exhaustive (many side characters, militia members, and villains appear in each game) but covers the major/fan-favorite figures, especially prominent women. Each character’s portrayal is drawn from official game story, scripts, and canonical data . Alexis Hilden Game: Valkyria Chronicles II Age: 18 (born c. 1919) Class/Role: Armoured Technician (Class G cadet) Personality: Alexis identifies first and foremost as “Alexis,” having been raised as a boy for much of her youth. She’s disciplined, reliable, and prides herself on her fencing and technical prowess. Though outwardly cool and composed, she’s well-liked—especially by her female classmates—for her quiet confidence and dependability . Appearance: Medium-height (163 cm) with short hair often tucked beneath her cadet cap. Her uniform is crisply kept, reflecting her no-nonsense approach. Notable Traits & Trivia: Former high‑school fencing captain, which underpins both her discipline and battlefield grace . Nicknamed “Lex” by friends; several cadets from other classes confess to her, underscoring her unexpected popularity . Plays a key support role in her Class G missions, excelling at repairing tanks under fire and laying down suppressive fire with her machine gun. Edy Nelson Game: Valkyria Chronicles I (plus anime & VC III cameo) Class/Role: Shocktrooper (Squad 7; later “Edy Detachment” leader in DLC) Personality: A classic tsundere, Edy is fiercely proud, craving the spotlight as much as she craves victory. Beneath her brash exterior, she’s loyal to her squadmates and harbors a genuine desire to protect Gallia—even if she complains about Rosie “stealing her stage” at every opportunity . Appearance: Petite (157 cm) with distinctive twin‑pigtails. She often adorns her uniform with theatrical flair (e.g., ribbons and bright belts) to feed her inner “idol” dream. Notable Traits & Trivia: Stars in the DLC “Edy’s Mission: Enter the Edy Detachment”—a set of side‑stories where she commands a small strike force independent of Squad 7 . Her voice lines (e.g., “Another Edy legend is born!”) and comedic “battle idol” quips make her one of the most memorable—and meme‑worthy—characters in the series Heroes Wiki . Despite “Panicky” being a troublesome Personal Potential in VC I, many players love her for the risk–reward thrill she brings on the front lines. Rosetta Valeriano Rosetta Valeriano is a 28‑year‑old scout in the Federation’s Squadron E who “presents as feminine” despite being born Rossano, using women’s clothing partly to combat anti‑Darcsen prejudice and to show that appearances can be misleading . Their bio notes that Rosetta fights not only to end the war but also to drive forward ideals with the strength to see them realized . Preferring a crisp uniform and composed demeanor, Rosetta’s choice of attire is both a personal expression and a statement against discrimination . Though not a dialogue‑heavy character, Rosetta’s quiet resolve and backstory have made them a standout among Squad E’s roster . Marina Wulfstan Marina Wulfstan is a 24‑year‑old sniper in Gallia’s militia, introduced in VC I and starring in the “Edy Detachment” DLC alongside Edy Nelson . Trained by her father from a young age, Marina boasts the “Ultimate Accuracy” potential, granting her sniper shots near 100 % accuracy at max level—which many players exploit to devastating effect . Though aloof and preferring solitude, she shows a soft spot for cute animals, revealing a caring side beneath her icy exterior . Her essential role in both the main campaign and the DLC missions—defending a village under Edy’s command—cements her reputation as one of the series’ best sharpshooters and most memorable side characters . Hans – Winged Porcavian Mascot Species: Porcavian (winged pig) Birth: c. 1934 (≈3 years old by 1937) Rank: Private, Third Class (honorary) Height/Weight: 46 cm tall, 12 kg Affiliation: Squad 7, Gallian Militia Background & Role Hans is discovered by Alicia Melchiott during a mission in the Kloden wilderness, where the little piglet had lost its family and was hiding in the underbrush. Moved by his plight—and perhaps sensing his uncanny intelligence—Squad 7 adopts Hans as their mascot and grants him the rank of Private Third Class so he can accompany them on deployments . Abilities & Behavior Agility & Flight: Though porcavians are thought incapable of flight, several Squad 7 members later report seeing Hans fluttering through the night sky on tiny wings . Intelligence & Loyalty: Hans seems to understand human speech and orders, often joining in training drills and even “interpreting” enemy positions via his keen senses. He’s frequently fondly scolded for burrowing into Isara’s shawl or Alicia’s scarf for warmth, showing both his mischievousness and bond with his caretakers . Morale Booster: Beyond comic relief, Hans serves as a symbol of hope and unity—a reminder of innocence amid the horrors of war. His presence often uplifts the squad’s spirits during dire missions. Edelweiss A prototype medium tank developed by General Belgen Gunther to counter Imperial armor. Originally fielded during Gallia’s earlier wars, it becomes Squad 7’s primary vehicle in VC I under Welkin and Isara Gunther. Armament & Specs: Equipped with a 40 mm KwK cannon, a 12.7 mm coaxial machine gun, and optional mortar or smoke rounds for support roles . Tactical Role: Balances speed, armor, and firepower—ideal for spearheading offensives and rescuing infantry in hostile territory. Narrative Significance: Its maiden combat under Welkin’s command saves Alicia Melchiott and catalyzes Gallia’s defense, cementing its status as a symbol of hope for the militia . Marmota The Empire’s colossal land‑dreadnought, designed as Prince Maximilian’s ultimate siege engine in VC I. It towers over conventional tanks and serves as a mobile fortress for Valkyria experiments. Armament & Specs: Mounts multiple heavy cannons and can deploy the Valkof energy shield; its massive size makes it nearly impervious to standard anti‑armor weapons. Tactical Role: Acts as a frontline break‑through unit, crushing infantry and smaller tanks alike—its appearance escalates several late‑game missions into desperate struggles. Narrative Significance: The climactic assault on Marmota’s reactor core and the defeat of Maximilian aboard it mark the turning point in Gallia’s defense, forcing the Empire into retreat . Hafen Squad E’s signature heavy tank in VC IV, paralleling the Edelweiss in importance. It starts as a medium chassis but can be upgraded to a heavier variant with enhanced armor and firepower. Armament & Specs: Features a powerful main cannon and improved plating capable of withstanding anti‑tank lances; later upgrades add reinforced treads and a secondary machine gun. Tactical Role: Excels in tank‑on‑tank duels and breaching fortified positions, allowing infantry to exploit gaps in enemy lines. It’s automatically deployed in any applicable mission, underscoring its centrality to Squad E. Narrative Significance: The Hafen is instrumental in pivotal battles—such as the push through the frozen Baltic front—highlighting Claude Wallace’s strategic acumen and Riley Miller’s artillery mastery on the field . “Minute” (Federation Tank) The Atlantic Federation’s mass‑produced medium tank, named after the American Minutemen. It constitutes the backbone of Federation armored divisions in VC I and beyond. Armament & Specs: Armed with a reliable main gun and modest armor; valued for low cost, ease of production, and rapid deployment. Tactical Role: Used en masse to hold front‑line sectors and support allied squads, trading sheer numbers for individual tank strength. Narrative Significance: Federation forces deploy Minute tanks to aid Gallia during Operation Northern Cross, showcasing Allied solidarity and mechanized warfare’s scale in the Second Europan War . Cactus A lightly‑armored, high‑mobility amphibious APC used by Federation forces, first appearing in VC I. Designed primarily for troop transport rather than direct combat. Armament & Specs: Equipped with a single machine gun for self‑defense; its shallow draft and flotation devices allow river crossings and coastal landings. Tactical Role: Transports scouts and engineers quickly across water obstacles, enabling flanking maneuvers and rapid base captures. Narrative Significance: The Cactus’s versatility features in early missions where conduction and surprise are critical, reflecting the Federation’s emphasis on combined‑arms tactics over brute force Squad 7 members (Valkyria Cronicles 1, gallian militia): • Aika Thompson (Scout) Slim, sun-tanned, with cropped auburn hair and a blue headband. Unshakeable “never say die,” she actually hits peak power when her back’s against the wall—though every spring she’s sneezing through pollen season. • Susie Evans (Scout) Pale-skinned, golden-blonde, always in a frilly scarf—the very picture of Gallian high society. She hates hurting anyone, even enemy soldiers, and literally gives away her pay by mistake. Her heart’s too big for the battlefield. • Musaad Mayfield (Scout) Broad-shouldered, grizzled forty-something with a close-cropped beard. A trench-war vet nicknamed “the Mole,” he’s unflappable under fire—part father-figure, part proud warhorse itching to prove he still belongs on the front lines. • Juno Coren (Scout) Dark bob, wire-rim glasses, bookish school uniform—part chemistry whiz, part secret admirer. She puffs up with confidence when Welkin’s nearby (she won’t admit why) and drops dead-accurate shots whenever he’s in her sights. • Noce Wordsworth (Scout) Soft-spoken, russet-haired with a poet’s slouch, always carrying a scribbled lyric. He joined to defend Bruhl’s bakery and–yes–he’s got a chronic crush on Alicia. He gets flustered and loses aim whenever his rival, Welkin, strolls past. • Cherry Stijnen (Scout) Fiery red pigtails, oversized goggles, glittering pink uniform—a walking fashion mag. She’s Rosie’s #1 fan, bubbly to a fault and quick to gush over any pretty face or prototype rifle. • Ted Ustinov (Scout) Chalk-white face­paint, wild red hair, baggy sleeves—he’s a born clown with a penchant for pratfalls. He’s allergic to rare metals, but that doesn’t stop him from juggling shells to keep the squad laughing. • Melville Young (Scout) Tousled sandy hair, open-collar shirt, perpetual grin. He’s the squad’s social butterfly—always chatting your ear off, tossing friendly nicknames around, and craving anything that moo’s, oinks or baas (meat-lover’s dream). • Homer Peron (Engineer) Scrappy red-mohawk mechanic with grease-smudged goggles. Fast-talking tinkerer, runs on caffeine and jokes, keeps tanks humming. • Coby Caird (Engineer) Broad-chested with a steel-blue buzz cut. Quiet perfectionist—treats the Edelweiss like a racehorse, calm under any breakdown. • Nancy Dufour (Engineer) Freckled, strawberry-blonde ponytail and floral overalls. Clumsy farm kid with a heart of gold—always apologizing mid-fix but stubbornly determined. • Edy Nelson (Shocktrooper) Tidy bob, wire-rim glasses, prim uniform. Studious sharpshooter—precise and aloof, secretly proud of her squad’s heroics. • Vyse Inglebard (Shocktrooper) Tall, angular face with slicked-back dark hair. Cold-exterior veteran—mirror-eyed and efficient, harbors a soft spot for Aika. • Lynn (Shocktrooper) Petite frame, spiky ginger hair, battle-scarred armor. Bouncy bullheaded thrill-seeker—treats every fight like an extreme sport. • Elysse Moore (Shocktrooper) Tawny curls under a crimson beret. Fierce and flirtatious—cracks jokes mid-charge, hides a caring soul beneath bravado. • Jann Walker (Lancer) Dusty blond surfer vibe, loose vest. Laid-back bohemian—loves long-range tank kills, drops surfer slang even in war. • Knute Jung (Lancer) Blonde crew-cut and stern blue eyes. Rigorous ex-Oberleutnant—tactician with a strict code of honor, secretly soft on small creatures. • Marina Wulfstan (Sniper) Sleek silver bob, icy stare. Frigid ice-queen marksman—emotionally distant on the field but twitchy affectionate around her pet duckling. • Nina Streiss (Sniper) Short dark curls, cat-eye glasses. Cheerful bookworm—quotes poetry between shots, gets giddy on headshots. • Fina Sellers (Medic) Willowy brunette in round spectacles. Nervy perfectionist—constantly reorganizing her medical kit, treats wounded like delicate artwork. • Oscar Delacroix (Scout, hidden) Tall, silver-cravat, monocle and parasol-pistol. Aristocratic duelist vibes—will challenge any enemy to a one-on-one mid-battle. • Hannes Salinger (Shocktrooper, hidden) Broad-shouldered with red dreadlocks and a perpetual five-o’clock shadow. Ex-instructor turned lone wolf—quietly drills rookies in the thin air of combat. • Aisha Neumann (Shocktrooper, DLC) Sleek black pixie cut, cyber-optic goggles. Special-ops hotshot—icy precision, deadpan quips, and surprisingly soft spot for stray animals. • Alex Raymond (Shocktrooper, DLC) Towering buzz-cut bruiser with a grin as wide as his axe. Loves cratering chokeslams onto tanks, then hauling wounded out of the blast zone. • Walter “Gramps” Morgan (Engineer, DLC) Stooped and silver-haired, tool-belt sagging with wrenches. Granny-smiles her way through gearbox rebuilds mid-mission, then calls everyone “darling.” Class G members (Valkyria Cronicles 2, lanceal academy): Scouts • Aliasse – Tall, platinum bob; regal posture hides fierce Valkyrur pride. Speaks little, acts first. • Nichol Martin – Soft-spoken, chestnut waves; ever-bookish and shy, but nails headshots like poetry. • Helmut Bourdais – Towering blond buzz-cut; glum giant with a gentle heart, won’t quit till he earns his stripes. • Sigrid Eissel – Delicate braids, silver-lensed glasses; chemistry whiz whose dry wit keeps the squad grounded. • Lotte Netzel – Rosy cheeks, braided pig­tails; farm-girl optimism, mid-battle hum still charming everyone. • Melissa Dalen – Scarlet ponytail, freckles; tomboy charge-first energy, secretly swayed by soft melodies. • Chloe Blixen – Sleek lavender twin­tails; aristocrat calm, obsesses over perfect angles—on the map and in tactics.
