- "I am the maiden who has inherited the song of yore. Henceforth, I offer up this song to you."
- —Kirika Towa Alma, Shining Resonance
Kirika Towa Alma (キリカ・トワ・アルマ Kirika Towa Aruma) is one of the main heroines of Shining Resonance and Shining Resonance Refrain. She is an elf who learns the song of magic which allows her to freely change the power of nature. However, she is a better healer than a damage dealer. She may seem withdrawn at first, but she is generally known to be a kind person.[1] Her brother is Lesti Sera Alma.
Kirika currently holds the position of Diva Magica and at the same time a Dragoneer who wields an Armonic called Koto-no-Kagura which is a bow with a harp attached between the upper limb and the string.
Profile[]
Appearance[]
Kirika wears a white and blue ankle length dress with a low bodice that shows a large amount of cleavage with her hair in a high ponytail. She possess fair skin and a busty figure.
Personality[]
Although appearing solemn in approach and devoted to her cause, Kirika can also be mischievous as illustrated by her hate of carrots. Rinna states in an event conversation with Yuma that Kirika goes so far as using magic to teleport the carrots out of any of her dishes. Kirika can even mysteriously sense the presence of carrots to any places or dishes. She also states that Kirika was known to use smoke and mirrors to escape from potentially taxing situations. She is still the most serious member of the group as she keeps everyone focused on the task at hand and keeps mischief to a minimum, particularly when it comes to Rinna. Kirika can also become very flustered with romantic event in the beginning but slowly become more relaxed as time goes on.
Her relationship with her older brother is firm although it is seen she can be oblivious of sharing their memories with the group or with Yuma. During an event about chocolates, Kirika asked her brother to taste her homemade chocolates for Yuma, that made him jealous but Kirika spoke her mind to just eat it.
Story[]
Ever since she was a kid, Kirika admired the stories of the dragons who fought Deus. The Shining Dragon, who lead the World Dragons at Ragnarok, is her most favorite and adores its influence.
Kirika ascended as the new Diva Magica and Dragoneer with the two of her bestfriends as her followers; Rinna and Beatrice. However, branded as a traitor due to the history of the dark elves, Beatrice was criticized if she really was fit for the position given to her. Thus, they departed without any goodbyes after Beatrice "attempted" to steal Kirika's Armonic.
Several years after the war of Lombardia Empire and Astoria Kingdom begun, the Wellant deployed its three dragoneers to assist the Kingdom. This prompted Kirika as one of the Dragoneers and accompanied by Rinna to head into Astoria, while Kirika's elder brother Lestin lead the Wellant Knights on the frontlines. Due to the addition of the Wellant Army and its Dragoneers, the tide was turned into the side of the allied countries, and Lombardia was pushed back from its achievements. But after 10 years, the war was not yet far from over.
At the start of the game, Kirika is first seen at the outskirts of Gaelritz Prison with a plan to rescue Yuma Ilburn along with Sonia Blanche and her knights. Not knowing if her friends made out of the entrance, Kirika assumed that Sonia proceeded with Plan B and fought the imperial guards at the gate.
Sonia and Yuma were able to reach the roof top but they were cornered by the Imperial soldiers. Kirika though made her entrance to save the two. Trishula and Excela then appeared at the fight and the dragon fought the trio. Though Trishula was defeated, it was revived by Excela's Armonic to fight once again along with two other dragons at her disposal. In the end, Kirika, Sonia, and Yuma were defeated with a single blow however Yuma's will to protect the girls forces him to use the Shining Dragon's power; transforming into the dragon itself and fled the area with Sonia and Kirika at his back.
After the incident at the research facility, Kirika will oftenly call Yuma as "Your Radiance" and "His Radiance" as he is the human vessel of the Shining Dragon. However after she differed her approach towards him and the Shining Dragon, Kirika will eventually call Yuma his first name.
