Kashell
—For an Einherjar, Kashell seems to have experienced relatively little tragedy in his life…?
Yeah, he’s the character with the least “dark parts” to his personality. In fact, you could say that among all the other twisted, messed-up Einherjar, he’s the weirdo. (laughs)
—What was his life like as an adventurer?
Like Arngrim, he’s one of the many mercenaries without a home, wandering the land in search of work. Having visited so many places his information network is very developed. His companions Grey, Celia, Lemia, and Aelia were all met through his mercenary work—he doesn’t see them as friends really, just people he’s doing a job with. It wasn’t always the 5 of them traveling together. There has been a lot of mercenary work in Artolia, which is where Kashell met Celia, and they are somewhat closer.
—Is Celia his lover?
They’re more than friends, but not quite lovers. They have both experienced attraction for each other, though. In the game Celia always seems to be crying, but in reality she’s always looking after Kashell like a big sister, and is quite a reliable, loyal person. When they work together, Kashell kind of lets himself be pulled along by Celia. (laughs)
—Kashell was born in Gerabellum, but was he a commoner?
He was born in the same place as Lemia, and they both grew up in a slum. He probably felt he had to get out of there as soon as he could, if he was going to make his mark on the world.

Footage taken from an emulated playthrough of the Android version via Bluestacks. The mobile version released in 2018 has high resolution artwork and can be played at higher resolution than the prior PSP and PS1 versions. So I figured the game deserved a proper recording in higher image quality.
I played the game with a Dualshock 4 (the game and Bluestacks supports game controllers). Menus require mouse movement, so I used the DS4's track pad for inventory management.
How to play the mobile version on PC with a controller:
1. Download and install Bluestack https://www.bluestacks.com/download.html
2. Set up a Google Play account and download and install the game
3. Connect your controller to your PC. If you use a Dualshock 4, I suggest using DS4Windows that also allows you to customize the trackpad and other things. https://github.com/Ryochan7/DS4Window...
4. Set up Bluestacks Settings to the following: Under "Engine", first choose OpenGL, then scroll down and select the 'ABI setting' to 'ARM'. Then go to 'Preferences' and enable "Use game's inbuilt gamepad controls"
5. Launch Valkyrie Profile Lenneth in Bluestacks with your controller connected. Menus are mouse-driven/trackpad-driven, combat and platforming are controller-driven.
