Overview
The Battle Maidens' history is one of tragedy and self-sacrifice. They are descended from a single courtesan who had sworn to defend her emperor, no matter the cost. Falling ill from a mysterious disease, the emperor ordered his courtesan sent away for her own protection. When the royal house came under attack one night, she defied those orders, and fought her way to her emperor's side, driving back the enemy invaders using skills she secretly learned from the Royal Academy...where women were forbidden to train.
While her emperor's life was saved, the courtesan contracted his disease and died. Touched by her courage, the emperor changed the law that prevented women to train at the Royal Academy. Now, Battle Maidens emerge from that structure equipped with razor-sharp "chakrams," which they use to mercilessly cut through their enemies. They can also magically project these blades through the air in order to attack their foes from a distance.

Gained from the Dragon Shrine, the Double Image ability is meant to confuse and distract the enemy. When activated, this special ability will cause the Battle Maiden to split into two transparent doppelgangers of her former self. These mirror images can be controlled separately, though they only inflict half of their usual damage. When one mirror image dies, the other mirror image will become a normal Battle Maiden once more. | To overcome the powerful effects of watchtowers, the Battle Maiden can utilize Power Transfer from the Fireworks Factory. While standing perfectly still, she can sap the magical power from any enemy watchtower, and redirect it towards nearby allies, who receive a bonus equal to the amount of damage they can inflict. |
