In battle, purification is used both for closing Dark Portals and converting monsters. Purification is the ability of members of La Pucelle to use the holy power of the Goddess Poitreene. Items called Change-ups can also be used to force a stream of energy to go in a certain direction. When two streams intersect, the one whose intersection point is closest to its portal will redirect the other stream in its direction. Blue+Green = Aqua (Healing/Purification).Due to their initial positioning or redirecting, their streams can be made to intersect, which merges them into new colors and effects: If left uncovered for a number of rounds, a dark portal will release a new enemy onto the map.ĭark portals usually come in three colors: red (fire), blue (ice) and green (wind). A character facing in the opposite direction of a stream of dark energy will stop it just like an obstacle. Obstacles stop the energy, while the stream will be redirected in the direction a character on the stream is facing. They commonly release a stream of dark energy which spills over the ground in one direction until they meet a character or enemy or an obstacle.

La Pucelle (or La Pucelle d'Orléans) was a nickname given to Joan of Arc which means The Virgin. Most of the names of characters and places in the game are in French. Each chapter has a number of endings, depending on the information La Pucelle discovers before reaching the chapter's end. The game's story is broken up into chapters. But legend tells that when the Prince arises, a warrior known as the Maiden of Light will challenge him and restore the balance of Light and Dark. It is said that the Dark Prince, favored servant of the fallen angel Calamity, will rise to scourge the land. Two of La Pucelle's newest members are Prier, a sixteen-year-old girl, and her twelve-year-old brother Culotte.
