Estella is a magician who claims to be a student of the legendary [[Crowley]]. Although her talents are no lie, it is hard to determine anything about her due to her constant lying and teasing of others. She has taken [[Rody]] on as her apprentice and gets great joy out of teasing him with her lies and falsehoods. | Estella is a magician who claims to be a student of the legendary [[Crowley]].

She would encounter the [[Fire Bringer]] at the [[Alma Kinan Village]] and would send the group on a wild goose chase looking for an entrance to its all-male counterpart before agreeing to join. [[Kidd]] often fell for her lies, believing her bizarre origin story about being born from a rock, travelling to Tenjik and transforming the water imp Rody into a human after they battled. | She would encounter the [[Fire Bringer]] at the [[Alma Kinan Village]] and would send the group on a wild goose chase looking for an entrance to its all-male counterpart before agreeing to join. [[Kidd]] often fell for her lies, believing her bizarre origin story about being born from a rock 50 years ago, travelling to a country or location called Tenjik for an old magic book, and transforming the water imp Rody into a human being after they battled. | ||
While at the castle, Estella would continue her habit of lying, but most people did not take much stock in what she said. She would write letters about [[Reed]]'s hair, or how [[Hallec]] and [[Dupa]] were the same person, and generally horrible and/or dangerous advice on improving magic affinity. The highlight of these were suggestions to bury oneself in sand for Earth power, swim 20 laps in a bathtub for Water, and to be exposed to [[Bright]]'s flame breath for Fire. If there ever was a purpose to any of this, it is not known. It doesn't even appear to be funny to her. | |||
Following the [[War of the Champions]], she would leave on a journey, apparently to find the 109th Star of Destiny. | Following the [[War of the Champions]], she would leave on a journey, apparently to find the 109th Star of Destiny. | ||
==Recruiting== | |||
Find Rody in the plaza of Alma Kinan and he will direct you to chat with Estella, who is resting in the inn. She will send you on a fool's errand to locate the "nearby" [[Gordius Village]]. Head into the next screen past the plaza and a girl will tell you she has never heard of the place. Return to Estella, she will ignore your input completely, then she and Rody will join you. | |||
==Trivia== | ==Trivia== | ||
* Estella's weapon upgrades as Ruby Ring II, Ruby Ring IV. The first one, plain Ruby Ring, is not seen without a cheating device. For that matter, what happened to the Ruby Ring III? | |||
* Estella participates in the Wizard Attack with [[Rody]], which spends some of his MP for a flashy but completely useless 100 damage. She also participates in the Lovely Woman attack with [[Lucia]] and [[Yuiri]], in which the trio blow kisses as the foes for damage somehow. | |||
* Estella can reach S level in Fire Magic, which is great with the [[Rage Rune]] she comes equipped with. She also picks up the unique magic skills Focus, Magic Repel, and Pale Gate Magic. | |||
* Estella's fanciful backstory as recounted by [[Kidd]] is merely the plot of '''Journey to the West''', which is one of China's four great novels, along with the '''Shui Hu Zhuan''', which inspired the [[Suikoden (series)|Suikoden series]]. | * Estella's fanciful backstory as recounted by [[Kidd]] is merely the plot of '''Journey to the West''', which is one of China's four great novels, along with the '''Shui Hu Zhuan''', which inspired the [[Suikoden (series)|Suikoden series]]. | ||
