Some time before the events of Valkyrie Profile, Silmeria, the kindest and youngest of the three Valkyries, had been captured by Brahms who was at war with Odin. Her soul was crystallized in his throne room, deep inside his immaterial palace.

 

But before this occurred, Silmeria angered Odin in some way and was imprisoned inside the body of Alicia, princess of the kingdom of Dipan. Not a reincarnation, both Alicia and Silmeria share a single body. Alicia now journeys for an unknown reason alongside mortals and previous Einherjar. As Silmeria's Einherjar grow stronger, they will eventually regain a mortal body and return to life free from the influence of Odin or Silmeria. Essentially, this is the complete reverse of Lenneth's role in Valkyrie Profile.

 

Silmeria was mentioned several times in Valkyrie Profile and was one of the most mysterious elements of the game

 

Alicia has been revealed as the main character of Valkyrie Profile: Silmeria. Not Silmeria herself but rather a mortal host for her soul, Alicia has been shown to exhibit abilities of the Valkyrie, as the story goes on, both her personality and her access to abilites of the Valkyrie develops.

 

Silmeria is not actually considered as a playble character. she only joins the party for a very short period of time. However, as part of the Tri-Ace's tradition, most temporary characters, including Silmeria, can be regained permanently in the bonus dungeon called Seraphic Gate

 

It has been revealed that Alicia's ability to hear Silmeria's voice (implying the two are capable of communicating) caused Alicia to be alienated by her royal family and later taken away from Dipan in exile. Later on in the game, it gives a description of the King and the three mage's true motivations.

 

Since the games release, Square-Enix have issued embargoes on North American media sites and magazines in an attempt to keep much of the content in Valkyrie Profile: Silmeria under wraps.

Tekken 6 artwork's up!

 

Also, on the news of actually maintaining exclusives:

 

Also touched on: next-gen Final Fantasy games on consoles other than the PS3. The developers seem smitten with the horsepower under the PlayStation's hood and insist they couldn't re-create the experience on other systems.

 

:cheerleader: this and MGS 4 are great news. Not because of the fanboys and haters, and not that i dont want all of us playing great games. Honestly, if they turn into timed exclusives (possible) im all for that, i just wanna see the gap close and more love for a great system, instead of rushed hand-me-down ports. Once things are all caught up, im all for all non-fist/second party games going everywhere.
