History Characters / ValkyrieProfileEinherjar

* GameplayAndStorySegregation: Averted. His weakness to water is both a gameplay [[IncrediblyLamePun element]] as well as the original cause of his death.

* ArcherArchetype: Known in his backstory for being a skilled and renowned archer and he happens to be the strongest of the ones that Lenneth can recruit.

RebelliousPrincess from the kingdom of Artolia, she tries to get back at Arngrim for insulting her father. Unfortunately, she doesn't realize just what kind of political machinations are going on behind the scenes. Her death comes from enemies of Artolia tricking her into consuming Ghoul Powder, and Lenneth is forced to put her down. As a mage, her FinishingMove is from the pool of twelve Great Magic attacks.

** [[spoiler:So, she disguises herself to hire Arngrim for a job on which she intends to pay him back. While discussing the "job" with him, she makes a scene over what she deems inadequate food at a restaurant before accidentally downing alcohol and passing out on the floor.]]

* CatchPhrase: "10,000 deaths are not enough for the likes of you". She says this phrase [[spoiler:in a fit of rage after Arngrim disrespected her father]], and twice later when [[spoiler:she disguised herself as Angela and made a scene in a restaurant, and when she talked in her sleep inside Arngrim's room]].

-->'''Jelanda''': Arngrim, it hurts!

* MercyKill: [[spoiler: By her eventual BigBrotherMentor Arngrim and Lenneth after being transmogrified into a terrible beast.]]

* EnemyMine: [[spoiler: The first one against Hrist. The second one against Lezard.]]

* MacguffinEscortMission: [[spoiler: Ends up on a permanent one, protecting the [[CosmicKeystone Dragon Orb]] from all those who would abuse it as its official guardian.]]

* TogetherInDeath: [[spoiler: He offers this to Brahms at the end of ''Silmeria'', but Brahms refuses and tells him that the Dragon Orb still needs protection.]]

* MeaningfulName: His name is the same name as the Celtic God Belenus, who is an equivalent of Apollo and known as "The Shining One". It helps define Belenus's nature in comparison to the corrupt Nobles of Gerabellum.

** He himself is arguably one to [[spoiler: Hrist]] in ''[[VideoGame/ValkyrieProfileSilmeria Silmeria]]''.

* ChainmailBikini: A rare male example. Arngrim wears shoulder pads, gauntlets, and armored boots, but no chestplate, and he's shirtless. Guess that just goes to show how much of a badass he is.

* ExpyCoexistence :''Anatomia: The Origin'' had a crossover event with ''Berserk'', allowing Guts to be a playable character. Meaning you can have both Arngrim and Guts in the same party.

* PutOnABus: Despite her relative importance to the plot, especially compared to other Einherjar, Mystina did not make an appearance in the second or third games. She did return as a playable character in ''Valkyrie Anatomia'', though. She's also gone on to make crossover appearances in the ''Bravely Default'' and ''Star Ocean'' series.

* SuperPoweredAlterEgo: The Darkness Mystina from ''Anatomia'' is described as a version of Mystina from another realm who has trouble controlling her immense magical power. She also became an einherjar to that realm's version of Hrist.

* EtTuBrute: Subverted. He never actually betrayed his King.

* AnIcePerson: One of the only two Mages able to use Ice magic.
