Tales of Xillia: Leia Rolando Scan

A brand new Tales of Xillia scan appeared recently showcasing  a new character, Leia Roland (15 years old). Leia is Jude’s childhood friend. She’s bright and cheerful, a poster child for her family’s inn. (She’s considered a 看板娘 [show girl], which in this case means she attracts patrons to the shop using her bubbly personality/looks.]  She is also a nurse in training, learning through observation, at a medical clinic within Jude’s parent’s home.

Leia Roland

So how does Leia Roland fit into the story? Well Jude’s parents owns a house in ル・ロンド Lu Rondo (Pending Title), which is the only treatment center in town. Jude visits the town to find a special ore/crystal that is required to cure some medical situation. With the aid of Leia, the party enters a closed mine to search for ore. The mine is pretty dark, and there appears to be some kind of danger lurking inside. How will this cane user, Leia, demonstrate her cane artes here?

Lu Rondo is a rural town far away from the capital city.

Leia Rolland, a new Tales of Xillia Character, can extend the reach of her cane to attack enemies at a distance.

Leia Roland, can use her cane to attack her surrounding area.

Leia has her own arts known as Katsushinkon Jutsu, which translates into “Life extending cane.”

• Actions [活伸棍術] Katsushinkon Jutsu
  • For a certain amount of time, she can extend her cane’s reach and attack enemies at a distance.
  • She can attack surrounding enemies en masse.
  • At higher levels you can lengthen the time her cane is extended.

Resonance Artes

In addition, Tales of Xillia has a feature called 共鳴術技 “Resonance Artes,” This is where two characters perform artes together.  When you attack an enemy, a gauge (not shown in the screenshot) fills up. After it is above a certain condition, if the operating character uses a specific arte, the partner character will automatically use theirs, thus Resonance Artes are performed.

  • Jude (Evil Fist) + Milla (Wind Lance) = Severing Wind Edge
  • Milla (Fireball) + Alvin (Tiger Fang Decapitation) = Crimson Sword
