[Commissions] Mystina-Valkyrie Profile✨ (Patreon)

After graduating head of the class at Flenceburg Sorcery Academy, she worked there as a researcher. She is a perfectionist who hates to lose and admits to being an egotistical narcissist with poor powers of self-analysis.

Description

Mystina (Meltina in the Japanese version) is a Sorceress Einherjar in Valkyrie Profile.

As opposed to most of Lenneth's Einherjar, Mystina plays an important part in the story if the player goes for the A ending.

A native of Flenceburg, Mystina is a beautiful young woman and a talented mage, but this has made her vain, egotistical and disagreeable. She studied at the Flenceburg Academy, her skill earning her the favours of Headmistress Lorenta, even though she disliked her for being overly strict. She is also acquainted with Lezard, although she seems to be somewhat suspicious of him. Her natural craving for knowledge leads her to become a researcher after her graduation, her biggest dream being to climb Yggdrasil and attain the knowledge of the gods. She finds everyday life uninteresting and often relieves her boredom by using astral projection and roaming wherever she wants in spirit form. She even has a machine installed in her laboratory for this purpose.

When told of Lorenta's death, Mystina expresses no sympathy and is actually pleased at the news, conjecturing that Lezard must be the one responsible, since Lorenta expelled him from the Academy. Curious about his motives, she travels to his tower in spirit form. She is astounded by what she discovers: Lezard has apparently discovered long-lost runes that allow him to shift the entire tower into a different dimension. Exploring further, she finds Lezard's journals, although she is unable to read them, whether because of his handwriting or because of the fact that he has encrypted them. Finally, she discovers the homunculus that Lenneth had spared during her previous visit. Due to the fact that the homunculus is a young girl,

Mystina erroneously assumes that Lezard has perverted tendencies, and takes the homunculus home, both to study it and as a form of blackmail. Her scheme is successful, as Lezard appears in her house that evening. She questions him about his involvement in Lorenta's death, then his research. While he does not confirm or infirm the former, he reveals that he has found the Philosopher's Stone. Mystina is understandably shocked at hearing this. Lezard then requests his homunculus, saying that he would be willing to compensate her for it. She agrees to the bargain and takes him to her laboratory, requesting information about Bifrost and Yggdrasil in exchange, a fact that amuses Lezard, but does not surprise him. He explains that Bifrost is located in the Forest of Spirits,

home of the elves. Mystina petulantly comments that the elves are too insular and would be better off dead, but Lezard disagrees. He proceeds to explain that the elves are vessels of the gods. They have divine blood, but may produce half-elven offspring with humans. Odin himself is a half-elf, which is why he has managed to seize the throne of the gods: his mortal blood has allowed him to evolve and outgrow the other gods. Lezard conjectures that transferring a human soul into a half-elven body would achieve the same results. However, he then remarks that he does not have anywhere he can store the homunculus and decides to leave it in Mystina's care for a while longer.
