Famitsu announced a new Shining Resonance party member this week: Lesti Sera Alma, an elven Dragoner and elder brother of Kirika. He projects a composed and icy veneer but is also prone to brooding, and being overprotective of his sister. He fights using the above pictured halberd, stylized (and roughly translated) as the Dragon Fang Halberd Fang Root. Perhaps true to his personality, one of his screenshots show him using ice-themed attacks.
Within the world of Shining Resonance, Lesti is the commander of a group of elven troops. He will be voiced by Yuichi Nakamura, who is coincidentally also the voice of Kurt Irving from Valkyria Chronicles III.
Outlets reporting on this recent news say to expect more from Famitsu later this week on Shining Resonance, on such topics as a weather system unique to the game and a costume that Kirika can wear in-game.
