Tales of Symphonia/Abyss 30 day challenge

Day 28: Favorite Tales Outfit

I really love Tear’s overall design. She isn’t overly sexualized and the only real part of her body you see is her shoulders but she still has a subtle bit of edge to her. I love her little metal garter belt clip things that you only see when she is running, the way her boots are shaped like high heels and the emphasis of sharp angles and clean lines on her outfit.

Day 6: Favorite Canon Pairing

Tales of Symphonia doesn’t really have any out right couple characters. Many characters are hinted at and paired but there isn’t really much actual evidence that the characters are couples. Tales of the Abyss is the same way but I think the Luke and Tear realtionship has the most substatantial behind it to being an actual couple. Tear is the only Tales character (that I know of) to actually say she loves another character so that’s the best proof I really have to go on.

Day 3: Favorite Main Female Hero

Mystearica Aura Fende aka Tear Grants

I played as Tear in TotA and I really liked her character She is cold and calculating at the beginning of the game and slowly softens and begins to love Luke. Watching her develop as a character was a nice treat in the game, as was watching her hide her secret obsession for all things cute. She could kick some serious ass and is a Locrian Sergeant in the Oracle Knights Intelligence Division which I thought was really cool. I also really loved her little garters that held her stockings up.

I also really liked her fighting style. While mainly a healer, she had a good number of offensive spells that could do a lot of damage and also has a good number of spells to assist the other characters’ stats.

All this being sad, I absolutely cannot stand Collete for ToSn and every time she speaks I just wanted to ram my fist down her throat. To me, she was a very mary-sue character and annoyed the crap out of me.
