Hot-tempered daughter of House Haughn who alongside her brother Nicolas persisted in spurring their sheepish elder brother, Valmur, to action. Nicolas's sudden death upset the balance, and now the once mighty house seems destined for ruin. Though she knows betrothal to another house awaits, Phiona's pride will not let her accept her true house's disgrace and for this she lashes out against Valmur, lord of the house.
Phiona is a character in Valkyrie Profile: Covenant of the Plume.
Personality[]
Phiona is a very proud, young woman of the noble warrior clan House Haughn who refuses to allow any person look down at her or the House in shame. Always one to assert her opinions, she constantly demands her brother Valmur get his act together and properly rule the House. She loves her family dearly.
Background[]
The pretty and hot-headed daughter of the House Haughn is well armed with strong pride. It is against the Haughn heritage that Valmur, eldest child and current lord, insists in not participating in the war. She scolds Valmur, stating he "dare hid[es] behind Nicolas' name" to avoid war and feels Nicolas would have been equally disappointed of the Lord's ways. Phiona is willing to fight in the war because she believes it is the only way to end it sooner.
In one story branch, she and her brother receive message that their parents, Auguste and Reinhilde, have been caught in a ambush. Along with Wylfred, she and Valmur attempt to save them, however the group came too late and the parents perish from to their heavy wounds. Both Auguste and Reinhilde are recruited by the Battle Maiden. Having no other place to go, Phiona and Valmur join Wylfred's party, accepting the ruination of the House.
In another path, she leaves House Haughn on her own, enraged at her brother's lack of duty. Shortly after, a hoard of enemies ambush her and Phiona falls after heavy battle, her soul taken by the Battle Maiden. The result of another sibling's death sends Valmur mind into an infantile state, believing his siblings are alive and playing hide-and-seek with him. He blissfully runs away to find them and is never heard from again. With no one left to survive the noble line, Auguste and Reinhilde join Wylfred on his quest to take revenge on the god that stole their children.
Battle[]
Phiona is a member of the Warrior class and like all members in the class, she has a movement range of three panels and an attack range of one panel (including diagonal panels).
