Pandoria

The future doesn't belong to you!
For those who have not completed games in the 异度神剑 series, this page contains spoilers regarding the plot. Discretion is advised.

Pandoria (Japanese: サイカ, Saika) is a Special Legendary Blade in 异度神剑 2. She can grant tremendous power to her Driver Zeke and his allies. Pandoria uses the 雷电 element, wields a 大爆炸 Edge, and acts as an Attacker in battle.

Pandoria has an unexplained connection with the Titan Genbu, who she is able to talk to and summon from beneath the Cloud Sea so long as the Omega Fetter remains undisturbed.

Personality

In her first encounter Pandoria is silent, and mirrors Zeke's actions for dramatic emphasis. Later she becomes talkative and quite cheeky, especially toward Zeke, who she teases for having bad luck, despite genuinely caring for him. She can be negligent and careless toward other's feelings, but will stick up for her friends when the need arises. Zeke calls her "Pandy".

Appearance

Pandoria is a young woman with short green hair, green eyes and pointed ears. Her appearance recalls the steampunk style, with big 眼镜/眼镜, a small hat, 雷电 bulbs in place of 肩 and a bulb tail. She wears a striped gray waistcoat, frilled 短裤/短裤 and long gloves and boots. Her 眼镜/眼镜 are initially opaque but 晴天 as the story progresses. Her Core Crystal shaped like a circuit board, with a triangle cut out of it.

Alternate Costumes

Pandoria has three alternate costumes which can be obtained as DLC Aux Cores via Challenge Battle Mode. These are:

Story

Pandoria, unlike Brighid, has no evidence of being passed down as a royal family Blade, though she is tied to the kingdom's 魂控 of Genbu. She is awakened at an 未知 time by Zeke, and when he is banished from Tantal, she 加入 him traveling Alrest.

The pair are attacked by bandits after some time in exile. Pandoria attempts to carry Zeke to safety but collapses and falls unconscious; when she awakens she finds Amalthus has taken a shard of her Core Crystal and implanted it into Zeke's heart, thereby saving both of them. In return for the saving of their lives, Zeke and Pandoria became special envoys for Indol to find and test the new Driver of the Aegis.

Pandoria fights the party alongside Zeke at Cobalt Cliffs, nearby the Old Factory, and at Ysheva Harbor. She eventually 加入 the party with Zeke, and they travel between Titans, eventually reaching Genbu, their home. Pandoria reveals that she has a special connection to the Genbu, as she is able to summon the Titan as long as the Omega Fetter is in use and speak to it otherwise. After Zeke reveals their backstory in 精灵 Crucible Elpys, her 眼镜/眼镜 become transparent.
