Chalis

Chalis is an antagonist in Golden Sun: Dark Dawn. Together with Blados, she is one of the commanders of a secretive military nation named Tuaparang. In battle, Chalis is shown to be weak to Mercury attacks.

=General Information= Chalis is described as an individual that uses her bewitching beauty as a weapon and gets close to the important persons of other countries. The way she acts as if she can see through everything is ominous. She was able to infiltrate Kaocho by seducing its higher officials and gaining more of the information she seeks. She serves as an advisor to their king. For a currently unknown reason, she and her country contact Matthew and his group and seem to be making use of the protagonists.

Heart, her Japanese name, likely refers to the playing card suit of the same name. This is supported by the heart symbol that adorns her gown. Her English name refers to the equivalent suit of cups or chalices in the Minor Arcana of tarot.

Blados and Chalis's mission is to activate Luna Tower and take control of the Apollo Lens. For reasons yet unknown, they are ordered not to kill Matthew and his party unless necessary, which they attempt to do at Apollo Sanctum by turning Volechek into a Chaos Hound.

Blados and Chalis are Dark Adepts, capable of wielding Dark Psynergy, an entirely new element introduced in Dark Dawn. However, there is still very little information known about Dark Adepts and their Psynergy, other than that the Dark tribe is incredibly secluded in wherever Tuaparang is located. So secluded, in fact, that none of Weyard is aware of their existence until the final events of Golden Sun: Dark Dawn.

As a boss
Chalis is fought alongside her partner Blados in the depth of Belinsk Ruins, in the room of the Alchemy Dynamo.

Statistically, Chalis has (roughly) 2700 HP and moderate attack power (estimated around 400), medium Venus and Jupiter resistance, high Mars and low Mercury resistance. In battle, she has access to the following abilites:


 * Scornful Caress: This is Chalis' main offensive attack. She rushes forward with incredible speed, hitting her target with several vicious dark-imbued blows. Attacks with 1.5x increased attack power.


 * Attack: A standard physical attack move.


 * Shadow Shield: A Dark support psynergy which covers all allies in a shield of dark mist. Reduces damage to 50%.

She may also use items occassionally:


 * Psy Grenade: An Item that damages the PP of the party with a range of 3 targets.
 * Vial: An Item that restores 500 HP to the user.
 * Illusion Perfume: An Item that creates a mist of delusional fragrance and inflicts the Delusion status with a range of three targets.

Quotes

 * In Kaocho Palace:
 * Chalis: "My dear Kan-Shuku, I know far more than you ever will."
 * Kan-Shuku: "How DARE you!"
 * Chalis: "Spare me, Kan-Shuku, and do try to look impressive. We have guests."


 * Chalis: (To her own soldiers) "Well done, men. Now, out of my sight."


 * King Wo: "Now, Chalis, tell me exactly who our little visitors ARE."
 * Kan-Shuku: "Let me do the honors, Your Majesty! These are Adepts!"
 * Chalis: "You bumbling toadie, Kan-Shuku-you really know nothing at all. These are quite...exceptional Adepts."


 * Chalis: "So Adepts, you want to explore the Ouroboros? To steal its relic for yourself, perhaps? Let's oblige them, Your Highness."
 * Meisa: "Ah, Chalis, you ARE a viper. Yes, I agree. Let's get them to the Ouroboros-posthaste!"


 * Chalis: "True Adepts have a way of proving their worth, Kan-Shuku. And I think that those Adepts are diamonds in the rough. If they survive the fall, they'll soon learn that they can't truly enter the Ouroboros-not yet anyway. Serving you in Ayuthay would have polished them up. That would give them just the strength they need. I suspect that this isn't the last we'll see of those Adepts. They'll come back to Kaocho when they're ready, now that they know what's in the Ouroboros."
