History Characters / PrincessWaltz

* PrincessCurls

The young princess of Shihou, who has known Chris since they were young children. She has devoted herself entirely to Chris and is more intent on becoming her wife than any other princess, although she doesn't know about Chris' true gender. Once she arrives in the story, she charms her way into the circle of {{Nakama}} with her experienced bento-making skills, although she remains highly suspicious of Arata, at least at first.

* BerserkButton: Do not mention any of her girly traits. Seriously.

* HoYay: [[SubvertedTrope At least until her gender gets obvious...]]
* LesYay: Chris thinks Shizuka is breathtakingly beautiful upon first meeting her. A case of Chris BecomingTheMask, or is [[EvenTheGirlsWantHer Shizuka capable of turning straight women lesbian?]]

* EnsembleDarkhorse

* [[spoiler:{{Moe}}]]

* FoeYay: With Angela.

* LesYay: Causes Chris to fall for her - either it's Chris BecomingTheMask or [[EvenTheGirlsWantHer Shizuka is capable of turning straight girls lesbian.]]

* UselessUsefulSpell: The Prince's Blessing. It's supposed to keep her alive at all costs, but the darn thing just can't keep up with some rates of damage.

Chris is very hung-up over her princehood, and is fighting in the Princess Waltz for reasons that Arata does not immediately grasp; namely, [[spoiler:so that she can become a "true prince"]]. As the tournament proceeds, it's revealed to the player that Chris has deep insecurities that seem to stem from the fact that she was born female, and thus unable to properly inherit the throne.

Halfway through the game, [[spoiler:Chris tries to kill Arata, but winds up forcing him to kill her instead, and her body is hijacked by the true villain. The focus of the game then shifts to Arata and the other princesses' attempts to save her]].

* XanatosGambit: Forces Arata to take one in order to [[spoiler: claim her and her virginity. It involved keeping her eyes closed for a minute. She was promptly kissed into defeat.]]

* YamatoNadeshiko.

In the second half of the game, the player [[RoadCone may or may not discover]] that she is [[spoiler:the Princess of Wisley, who had her memories wiped and her powers sealed by her mother so that they could live normal lives while protecting Arata. However, she's been so determined to protect Arata that her powers break out in uncontrollable ways every now and again, resulting in her appearance as the "beast princess". If Arata doesn't show interest in any of the other girls, we see that their mother decides to unseal Shizuka's powers for the final battle, restoring her memory and conscious abilities]].

A masked priestess who gives orders to Chris on what to do to seize victory in the waltz. [[spoiler: Is revealed to be Cecilia, younger sister to Princess Lydia of Soldia, winner of the previous Waltz, who had an affair with the Emperor out of jealousy towards her sister.]]

* {{Kawaiiko}}

* WeakButSkilled: Her duel with Angela takes undertones of this; she resorts to finesse and combat skills against Angela's power. [[spoiler: Ultimately unsuccessful, though Angela notes it was a close match and if she'd seen Iris' FinishingMove first, she might have prevailed over Angela.]]

The princess of Lenstantsa, and the captain of their navy. She's not the oldest princess of her kingdom, but she's the only one who's eligible, which is why she entered the Waltz--that, and she was irritated with her sisters for settling for anything other than a prince when they married.
