Description: The game producers explained that they wanted a secondary character who would be an actual partner to the Prince in a true sense with being a helpful and a friendly asset, and "not become any kind of burden on him or his way". It is claimed that Elika is as large an innovation to this game as the time-controlling powers of the Prince were in the Sands of Time trilogy. The inspiration to create Elika was drawn from supporting characters from other media, like Elizabeth Swann from the Pirates of the Caribbean film series; Padm¨¦ Amidala from Star Wars; and Arwen from the Lord of the Rings film trilogy. Elika is described as a "deadly ally,"and a strong supporting character, who will affect every aspect of the game, as she accompanies the Prince throughout the game. This includes exploration, combat and puzzle-solving. A descendant of the Ahuras, she can perform some special moves in tandem with the Prince, and use her magical abilities to aid the Prince in his quest. She is also able to guide the Prince on the right track in case he is lost in his way in the game and can assist him in solving multiple puzzles as well. Elika is voiced by Kari Wahlgren,and speaks Farsi.
