Saki Tsuzura is a playable character in the Arcana Heart series. A cool and calm young woman who cares deeply for her childhood friend, Heart, but struggles to express herself. After losing Fiona to the Elemental World, she made a vow to protect those close to her.
Her Arcana is Bharni, the Arcana of Thunder.
Bio[]
Unlike many maidens with the ability to see the Arcana, some girls abilities lay dormant until a truly shocking moment or tragedy occurs in her life. However, Saki hasn't let that stop her from training her skills and putting them to good use.
A volunteer of the Celestial Union branch in Japan, she fights to never lose another to the Elemental World. Even if this means having to beat it into someone to save them.
Appearance[]
Fair-skinned with sharp, caramel eyes. Saki is a few centimeters shorter than Heart, but with a slightly larger frame. Her long, flowing blue hair barely touches the knee with her bangs tucked beneath a gold headband, one portion on the left is layered over it and partially sticks up. Her forelocks frame her face.
Normally, Saki wears the Misono Academy uniform. But unlike Heart, she wears a maroon and white vest and white wristbands, and a pair of brown loafers with black tights.
Personality[]
Impressively wise and sophisticated, Saki comes off to others as being perfect for her many talents, skill, and academic gifts. She is well-admired by others, but in her strive to continue being the best and desire to do things on her own, she chooses to keep them at arms length out of suspicion or to ensure they won't get into trouble on her behalf. Her determination and strong sense of duty are unmatched, and she always thinks things through before making her next move. She can become stubborn and bull-headed when provoked, and she's easily flustered when dealing with unexpected behavior or situations.
Around friends or those she trusts, Saki remains cautiously stern and usually worries over their well-being, so she doesn't hold back on criticisms. Despite how rudely she treats Heart, she deeply cares about her and is quick to envy if she thinks someone else is getting her attention. But in her desire to keep friends and others safe, she can become overbearing without realizing it.
When she's not with friends or those she's familiar with, she can be withdrawn and cold. She isn't good at small talk with those she's unfamiliar with.
Story[]
Arcana Heart[]
Two years ago, Saki was relocated to Greece due to her father's job as a Businessman. While attending school there, she met a girl named Fiona Mayfield and befriended her. One day the girls went to visit a mysterious Mountainside, where they were sucked into the Elemental World. After being rescued by Bhanri, they became partners and she was able to escape- but she was unable to save Fiona.
Since then, the guilt has been eating Saki alive. After noticing the strange occurrences within the sky, she became determined not to let anyone else get taken from her, and when she hears Heart will be going to investigate she decides to stop her to avoid letting her share the same fate.
Arcana Heart 2[]
