Characters

Reisalin "Ryza" Stout

An ordinary girl whose unique characteristic is the fact that she is just that - ordinary.

Ryza has a wild and tomboyish personality with a strong sense of justice. While she can be stubborn in her convictions, her heart is in the right place. Her whole world is turned upside down during an extraordinary encounter...

Lent Marslink

Childhood friend of Ryza and Tao. Due to the events of his past, Lent is treated as outcast in his village.

Using this as his drive, he hopes to accomplish a great achievement and prove himself to the villagers. He has a heart of gold and acts as Ryza's moral compass when things get perilous.

Tao Mongarten

Childhood friend of Ryza and Lent. Tao always walks around with a cryptic old book he found in the basement of his house. Since he’s continually trying to decipher it, the villagers consider him to be eccentric.

Although he's timid and not the best at socializing, he never abandons his friends. He has a thirst for knowledge that borders on being obsessive, and an extraordinary ability to concentrate.

Klaudia Valentz

Because she is always travelling together with her merchant father, she hasn't had the opportunity to make any friends.

Although she has a gentle personality, there's a hidden side to her that is decisive and resolute, and she possesses an unexpected amount of courage.

Empel Vollmer

A wandering alchemist, bearing wounds to both body and soul. Empel is a travelling alchemist with an extraordinary curiosity for ruins. He spends time at his dwelling in the village where he performs daily research.

Due to an incident in his past, he is no longer able to perform high-level alchemy. In contrast to his youthful appearance, he is dignified and mature.

Lila Decyrus

A female warrior shrouded in mystery who accompanies Empel. Together with Empel, Lila is a roaming female warrior who finds her way to Rasenboden Village.

Though she has a mysterious appearance, she is highly skilled in combat and agrees to teach Ryza and her friends how to fight in real battles. Lila has a cool and composed demeanor. She uses words sparingly and keeps to the point. It seems she is surveying the ruins on Kurken Island...

System

A new "Creation" system has been included, allowing players to create things never seen before in the "Atelier" series.

In addition, the synthesis system, gathering system and battle system has been revamped for a deeper and more exciting “Atelier” experience!
