Item Description

Most role-playing games let you make one character overwhelmingly powerful. Valkyrie Profile: Covenant of the Plume gives you that power and then makes you watch that ally die when the battle ends. The Destiny Plume, a feather taken from the Valkyrie Lenneth herself, can turn any unit into an unstoppable force for a single fight, but whoever receives it is lost for good once the battle is over. Every time you reach for it, you are deciding who is worth sacrificing.

The man holding the feather is Wylfred, a young mercenary whose father Thyodor was taken by Lenneth as an einherjar, leaving his family to suffer in the aftermath. Consumed by hatred for the Valkyrie, Wylfred is mortally wounded and saved by Hel, goddess of the dead, who hands him the Plume. Its first use costs him his friend Ancel, and from then on Hel's emissary Ailyth is at his side. The story is a prequel to the original Valkyrie Profile, and unlike earlier entries it is told from the ground: a human, bitter and grieving, rather than the gods above him.

Battles take place on isometric grid maps with a rotating camera, but the moment an attack begins, tri-Ace brings in the series' signature combat. Each of your four fighters is mapped to a DS button, and chaining their strikes fills an Attack Gauge that unleashes cinematic Soul Crush finishers. Keep attacking after an enemy falls and you score an Overkill. A Sin gauge adds pressure, since Wylfred needs to build a set amount of Sin each battle or face a powerful enemy in the next one.

How you use the Plume decides which of three paths and endings you see, and the darkest secrets only surface on certain routes, so a second playthrough is part of the design. Motoi Sakuraba returned to score it. Released in North America in 2009 by Square Enix, it drew praise for its writing and its sacrifice mechanic, and it is the only Valkyrie Profile game on a Nintendo platform: a grim, thoughtful tactics RPG and a real piece of the saga for anyone following Lenneth's story.
