- For Atelier Shallie's Linca, see Linca (seventh).
Linca is a playable character in Atelier Ayesha: The Alchemist of Dusk, Atelier Escha & Logy: Alchemists of the Dusk Sky and Atelier Resleriana: Forgotten Alchemy & the Liberator of Polar Night.
Linca is a skilled sword user who has been practicing the art of swordplay since she was young. She was saved by Marion several years ago, and has since then remained loyal to her.
She is known to have at least seven "siblings", all of whom look almost identical and all share the same name, Linca. While Linca and Marion have been bothered by a more malicious sister for some time, Linca also has more friendly older sisters (the third and seventh). The "Lincas" were created artificially in an underground garden. Linca is the eighth "Linca" to be born.
Role[]
Atelier Ayesha[]
She works as Marion's bodyguard. She and Marion arrived from a land very far away for an important investigation. She's a devoted companion who is always thirsty for a good battle. She's a very skilled sword user, but is virtually clueless about everything in life outside of battle.
Marion entrusts Linca to Ayesha and her party as a companion when they visit Hallos Village. Although Marion and Linca have a good relationship, Marion wishes for Linca to have more friends and to become better socialized. By travelling with Ayesha, Linca learns to cook, and begins to understand simple concepts better.
Linca also admits that she wishes to have short hair and clothing more suitable for battle. Because Marion takes good care of her, Linca has never changed her appearance, all to please Marion.
If Linca is the character with the highest friendship in the third year of the game when Ayesha's birthday event occurs, the player will recieve a Chain Shirt as a gift from Linca and Marion. After a character event, Linca will open a shop that is open during the bazaar, where the player can buy items from her.
Atelier Escha & Logy[]
After the events of Atelier Ayesha, Linca has left the Land of Dusk and now works for the Colseit branch. Linca is a specialist in combat who supports Marion, and her sword skills are first class. Her main duties include subjugating monsters and searching for wanted criminals [1]. She was assigned to the development team together with Marion, and becomes like a senior to Escha and Logy.
Linca's clothes are still picked by Marion, and Linca continues to attempt to fulfill her goal of making 100 friends. It's still difficult for her to make friends, and is unable to act on a equal basis with Marion. But she is not hesitant in front of anyone, and her feelings for her companions are very strong [2].
Linca is introduced early in the story as Logy and Escha's senior colleague at work, shortly after the scene where Escha and Logy met for the first time. She is available as a playable party member and joins Escha and Logy in their investigations later in the game. Linca also has her own character ending.
