Main Characters
Escha Malier
Voiced by: Rie Murakawa (Japanese), Marieve Herington (English)
The main female protagonist and a 15-year-old home-taught old-school alchemist by way of her since-deceased mother. While her family owns one of the well known orchards, she decides to join the R&D Division so she can use her alchemy to help others. Prior to the start of the game, she did various errands around town to help other people.
- Adaptation Dye-Job: Has blue eyes instead of green in the animated cutscenes.
- Big Eater: Eats a whole apple cake by herself meant for 3 people, much to her embarrassment.
- Book Dumb: Implied due to her constant mess-ups with her worksheets. At one point, she even writes her own name incorrectly.
- Childhood Friends: With Awin
- Cute Clumsy Girl: If what Clone says about her when she worked at the orchard is any indication.
- Cuteness Proximity: Towards the homonculi.
- Cute Witch: One of her costumes is essentially this.
- Deuteragonist: If you choose to play as Logy.
- Dramatic Stutter: When put under the slightest bit of pressure — such as being introduced to someone new — Escha will stutter her way through the encounter. Most noticeable in the game's prologue.
- Downloadable Content: Is playable as DLC in Atelier Shallie.
- Expressive Accessory: Her tail. In the anime adaptation, several characters make a big deal about it, or wanting one like it. Her mother made it with alchemy and she considers it a keepsake. In fact, a plotline in one installment actually involves a plan to mass-produce it, though Escha is against the idea... at least at first.
- The Gift: It's noted that normal people can't Synthesize by instinct like her.
- Girlish Pigtails: Sports them.
- Improbable Weapon User: A picture book made by alchemy, which is her strongest weapon.
- Item Caddy: As the more "conventional" alchemist, Escha relies on the bombs and tools she brews up in her cauldron. She does have her own offensive/defensive abilities though, so she's not helpless should her items run out.
- Meido: This becomes her job in Threia's ending, since it's implied that she's too Book Dumb to keep up with the latter's research.
- Modesty Shorts: Similarly to Meruru, she wears a pair of bloomers under her skirt to prevent panty shots.
- Pirate Girl: One of her alternate outfit.
- Plucky Girl: As with many girls in the Atelier series, Escha has no concept of "giving up". Although she might be given pause for thought when the idea of raiding a dragon's nest is brought up.
- Pure Energy: She utilizes Ether in her skills.
- Raised by Robots: Kinda, as she was raised by her real mother until she died, leaving Escha to the care of Clone, who is an automaton and a close friend of her family.
- Savvy Guy, Energetic Girl: With Logy.
- She Is All Grown Up: In Atelier Shallie.
- Ship Tease: With Logy, even moreso in the Vita port and anime. The Vita port even gives you the option to go down a romance route. At this point, they may as well be an Official Couple.
- In the Vita remake, they even get matching bride and groom costumes!
- Summon Magic: The full potential of her Double Draw, with her book.
- Sweet Tooth: Escha has a craving for sweets when she's out on assignment, but cooking them is a pain. Her way around it? Synthesize sweet things and have the Homunculus, who can recreate anything already created, resupply her.
- Tomboy with a Girly Streak: Called a tomboy by Clone, but at least she knows how to make sweets.
- Trademark Favorite Food: Apples.
