' in the past , i always stood behind her at tea parties , sword at the ready. but now , i get to sit at the table and enjoy the tea and treats along with her. i'm now beginning to understand why she complains all the time about how hard it is to maintain her physique , ' says Clorinde about Furina.

about Navia . .

Clorinde's story is also connected with Navia , the head of Spina di Rosula. Navia met Clorinde at the age of 10.

character story 1.

' if you find yourself facing Clorinde , you'd be better off accepting your verdict immediately. ' whether you heard it from the mouth of one who had known the misfortune of facing Clorinde themselves , or someone who had merely watched her dueling from the safety of the stands , there's next to no chance that this would have been said in jest. take some of those who lost their duels with her in under a minute , for instance. a young lady who sought to prepare by tightly wrapping lengths of cloth around her hand so that she would not lose her grip on the hilt of her sword. before she knew it , the strips of cloth had been cut off one by one with pinpoint precision , and her weapon sent spinning up into the air with such ease that it resembled a sewing needle. or those flustered ' gentlemen , ' somewhat of a recurring type , who turn up sporting all sorts of hidden gadgets from head to toe — pistolets stuffed into their hats , daggers in their shoes , powder bottles up their sleeves. once their tricks have been spent , they end up being thrown on their backsides without exception , now facing the additional charge of ' contempt of court. ' and that's not even to mention those desperate individuals who , by leveraging all means available to them , seek to curry favor before the duel has even begun , painting themselves as victims in a vain attempt to win the people's sympathy. but this doesn't change the inevitability of their defeat in the dueling ring. after all , a sword tarnished by a sheath of lies is no use for cutting anything.

character story 1.

but there is a benefit to the existence of this motley crew of failed scoundrels and slapstick comedians — namely , they serve as counterexamples helping the crowds recognize those others who are willing to duel with real honor , and when there is indeed some truth in the ' justice ' that they proclaim. even if such a person ends up losing , people will listen to what they have to say — for they see that this is someone who stands firmly by their beliefs , and has the courage to draw a sword in their defense. some say that when Miss Clorinde fights such individuals , she holds back slightly and never uses her full strength. a member of the audience , having once witnessed such a duel up close , even swore up and down that he saw the corner of Miss Clorinde's mouth curl up very slightly in what must have been approval. and surely , it is only in facing such opponents that the true meaning of the word ' duel ' is given its full expression , no ? but Clorinde cares not whether the audience is moved by her duels , nor to hear the internal monologues they might inspire. as far as this champion duelist is concerned , the only meaning to be taken from a duel comes from facing your opponent on fair terms to determine a winner , a loser , and the righteous cause.

character story 2.

Clorinde cuts a dashing figure during duels , and her bearing has won her many admirers. these ' enthusiastic ' citizens have carefully analyzed every aspect of this champion duelist's being. where did she learn her skill with the blade ? was it passed down through her family , or acquired unexpectedly ? might the explanation for her outstanding swordsmanship be that she is the last in the line of some fallen dynasty that once practiced the art ? it is said that she performs a ' sword cleansing rite ' before each of her duels. but with what does she cleanse the body of her sword ? water of the highest purity , drawn directly from the fountain of Lucine ? some kind of special cleansing ointment ? or could it be that , to strengthen her connection to her weapon , she even adds a touch of . . her own blood ? no , no , no ! the great power of this ' rite ' surely lies not in the mere cleansing of her sword , but rather in her calling upon the spirit of some master swordsman to possess her , thus explaining her unbroken streak ! for a time , the figure of this undefeated champion duelist became shrouded in all kinds of colorful stories , driving the citizens ( mainly the journalists , to be precise ) into a frenzy of gossip and curiosity. finally , driven to exasperation by all the reporters hiding in the bushes and flower beds by their main entrance , the court authorities assembled the journalists and released an official statement : ' the weapons and methods employed by Miss Clorinde in her duels — and this goes for all our other champion duelists too — are entirely mundane , and not , as rumor would have it , imbued with exaggerated powers of any kind . . ' a wave of indignation spread through the audience , their expressions making clear that they remained utterly unconvinced.

' if such unfounded rumors begin to exert a pernicious and malign influence on public opinion , the courts reserve the right to formally bring proceedings against those deemed responsible for fabricating and propagating said rumors . . ' this threat was met with disdain by the journalists , whose kameras continued to shoot away without any sign of stopping. ' . . let it be known , responsibility for the execution of the duties of champion duelist for all relevant trials is hereby entrusted to . . Miss Clorinde ! ' with this , the journalists fell silent all at once. to this , Clorinde — who , having been forced to attend this farce of a press conference , was sitting off to one side — nodded and replied : ' of course. that's my job. ' and so were the absurd rumors about Clorinde finally brought under control. nowadays , the only traces of that storm of conjecture still to be found are contained within the pages of a few daring theater scripts and edgy novels. but were you to confront any one of the playwrights or novelists concerned , they would , without exception , firmly deny any taking any inspiration whatsoever from those rumors. nope , absolutely no connection to those old fabrications whatsoever , none at all !

character story 3.

in truth , those rumors that Clorinde had been dabbling with supernatural forces were indeed completely unfounded. the formidable fighting talent of this champion duelist had its origins instead in the legacy of a group that once hunted down phantoms throughout the land of Fontaine : the ' Marechaussee Hunters. ' legend has it that at the time of Fontaine's founding , there was a hero who went by the name of ' Golden Hunter. ' to wipe out the monsters that threatened the peace of Fontaine , it was he who founded the Marechaussee Hunters , gathering a band of heroes — among them the descendants of the Lochknights — to hunt down monsters and villains across Fontaine , leaving behind countless heroic legends in their wake. yet once peace had finally been restored throughout the land , the name of the ' Marechaussee Hunters ' gradually fell into obscurity. today , when the people of Fontaine speak of the Marechaussee Hunters , most know only of the ' Hunter's Oath , ' having heard it mentioned in some play or novel. for most Fontainians , the story of the Marechaussee Hunters is now but a legend full of drama and excitement. but to Clorinde , the deeds and oaths of the Hunters are her living , breathing inheritance.

character story 3.

the first thing she learned from her mentor , the Marechaussee Hunter Petronilla , was the swordsmanship required to slay monsters. the approach of the Hunter requires them to stay as close as possible to their prey so that they might plunge their blade into weak points with lightning-fast agility. to train her in this technique , Petronilla consigned Clorinde to a room filled with rotating pillars , each of which had been set up with many wooden swords protruding outwards , their tips covered with cloth bags. ' they might contain candy , or they might contain metallic sand. or perhaps they'll contain all the hair I've lost while teaching you . . ' ' you can chop open these bags or simply avoid them. i'll leave you to make that call. ' ' seeing as you've already had lunch today , you might as well keep going all the way through to dinnertime. remember , try to reserve enough strength to eat. alright , begin ! ' by undergoing such training , Clorinde not only developed the Marechaussee Hunter's skills of marksmanship , tracking , camouflage , and footwork , but also learned their method of quickly revealing their identity when encountering fellow Hunters in order to avoid accidental injury.

character story 3.

yet Clorinde has never mentioned the hardships she endured during her training to anyone else. after all , she is now a champion duelist of the Trial Court , not a Marechaussee Hunter from centuries past. she trusts that her mentor , who left without so much as saying goodbye , would understand her decision. the Marechaussee Hunters once wielded their swords to slay fierce monsters in defense of Fontaine's peace and stability. it is only natural , then , that their inheritor should do so to strike down lawless villains. even if her mentor had objected , Clorinde would not have minded settling their debate in the time-honored fashion of the Marechaussee Hunters. after all , as Ms. Petronilla once said herself , if Clorinde could defeat her , she'd be willing to listen to the latter's dissenting opinion.

' Marechaussee Hunter's Legacy '

if you're looking for the most characteristic element of Clorinde's outfit , look no further than the coat-tail cape that hangs down behind her. for Clorinde , this cape is a ' keepsake ' in the truest sense. when she was but 10 years old , the mentor who had trained and looked after her , Petronilla , left without saying goodbye. even Mr. Callas , who always seemed to know everything , hadn't the slightest idea where the Marechaussee Hunter had gone. not only did Clorinde turn the whole room inside out ; she also went back to all the places where she had once trained to search for clues ; but in the end , there was nothing that might indicate where her mentor had gone. in all her searching , the only thing she found was a long , slim , dark blue cape hanging in the closet. Clorinde had never seen her mentor wear this cape before ; she always wore a black one. even if Clorinde had somehow managed to forget this , the Gardes who Petronilla had often run rings around — combined with all the wanted posters pasted on walls throughout the city — would have reminded her anyway. . . but on the inside of the cape , you could clearly make out the unmistakable imprint of the Marechaussee Hunter's insignia. there was also a necklace with a dagger-shaped pendant that had her name carved into it — a belated birthday gift , it seemed. but this cape and the insignia upon it . . were they really a parting gift , or just another one of her mentor's tests ? Clorinde couldn't tell , but she kept the items nonetheless. if it was a test , then she'd do everything in her power to prepare for the final trial that awaited her. even if the trial should span the rest of her life.

Vision.

Clorinde received her Electro Vision during one duel. ' after i received my Vision , the amount of people surrendering to me in duels went up substantially. some duelists even think i use it as an intimidation tactic. i always thought my undefeated track record was enough of an intimidation tactic. perhaps i should aim to win more dramatically in future duels , ' says Clorinde about her Vision.

weapon.

Clorinde skillfully wields a sword and musket.
