Shining Resonance

Character Profiles

Kirika Towa Alma

Class: Song Maiden

Weapon: Dragon Wing Bow Kotonoha

Main Magic: Sacred Magic

“My apologies, but I have no interest in humans. I only want to learn more about the heart of dragons.”

As the main heroine for Shining Resonance, Kirika is gifted
with special powers as an elven song maiden who inherited the “Holy Song
of Seals,” an ancient song that can manipulate the spiritual power
within nature. The owner of of the Dragon Wing Bow Kotonoha, one of the
legendary Dragon Instruments that takes its form as a harp, her combat
prowess as a Dragon Player isn’t particularly noteworthy, instead being
primarily a healer first and foremost. Her position as a Song Maiden led
to people treating her delicately as she was growing up, resulting in
her having led a sheltered life. As a result, she’s not the best at
talking with other people, which tends to give off the impression she’s a
little cold when she’s in actuality a nice person deep down. She
greatly enjoys singing.

Agnam Brethart

Class: Mage

Weapon: Dragon Flame Wand Igryut

Main Magic: Explosive Fire

“You just sit back and enjoy this explosive tune I’ve got in store for you during these last few moments of your life!”

With a personality as hot as the fire he can control at will, Agnam
is another Dragon Player with a Dragon Instrument of his own, namely the
guitar-shaped Dragon Flame Wand Igryut. As a magician who knows his way
around sound, when he’s around, battlefields turn into concert halls,
thanks in no small part to his practically incendiary aural stylings. In
spite of his mischievous demeanor as a man who enjoys gallivanting
around the world as a vagabond, he nonetheless is considerate and goes
out of his way to care for others. While his appearance and hot-blooded
nature might lead some to believe otherwise, he’s not to be taken
lightly as a Dragon Player. Additionally, in terms of combat capability,
in addition to being highly competent at magic, he’s not afraid to get
up close and personal and is all too happy to be on the front lines of a
fight.

Sonia Blanche

Class: Magic Knight

Weapon: Sword and Shield

Main Magic: Lightning

“You’re worrying too much. Just come along with me. There are people out there that really need your powers, you know.”

Sonia takes up the mantle of being the female protagonist in Shining Resonance,
functioning as the party leader. Working to help get the Kingdom of
Astoria back on its feet, she has a number of people under her command
as she fights against the empire. A determined woman with a masculine
streak to her personality, she knows her way around a sword and has
earned the nickname “Lightning Princess,” a name that strikes fear in
others and is as much a reference to her personality as it is her
ability to take action with extreme swiftness. The game’s storyline
begins with her and her troops raiding an imperial research facility and
rescuing Kouryuu Irvan, a legendary dragon held captive, who is then
placed under her protection from that point onward. While the imperial
family has a Dragon Instrument of its own that’s been passed on from
generation to generation, she still can’t confidently wield it as of
yet.

Georg Zalbard

people. As the living word of the gods, I’ll show you what fate has in
store for you with this blade!”

Church of Slain Dragons in the Lonbardia Empire, Georg is a dog of the
church feared by all who is in command of the most elite imperial
battalion. With even the eyes of the rest of the Empire’s military on
him and his sketchy band of soldiers, he takes up command of the front
lines under the orders of the imperial princess.
