Atelier Meruru: Butler, Maid, and World Development

Gust Corporation have released direct-feed media of the recently revealed butler and maid characters for Atelier Meruru. This includes some new details, as well.

Kaena Swaya, the maid, is 14 years old, 152cm tall and blood type A. As Meruru’s childhood friend, she serves as both her made and lady-in-waiting. In combat, she uses skills like “Song of Happiness”, which temporarily levels everyone up one level, or wields her giant hammer.

Rufes Falken, the butler, is 25 years old, 185cm tall and boody type A. He handles all Meruru’s government affairs and even serves as her teacher. He’s very strict with her, however, and can be obnoxious about money and time.

As mentioned in past updates, Atelier Meruru boasts a world development system. This is a primary system for the game, according to Gust. Meruru must develop Arls Kingdom into a country as great as the Arland seen in Atelier Rorona and Atelier Totori.

Throughout the game, you’ll earn “Development Points” which allow you to build new buildings, structures, and other facilities for the world. These points tie to your “Kingdom Rank”. As your rank rises, you’ll gain access to additional areas of the kingdom.

As ruler of the kingdom, Meruru must do more than just build for the people. She must help the people, as well. By speaking to the denizens, you can take on quests to help solve their problems. Solving these quests can earn you development points.

Check out the screenshots at the gallery.

Thanks, Andriasang.
