splendor of thy song

Hello, and welcome to Project Martel -- a fansite of sorts dedicated to the Gamecube RPG, Tales of Symphonia. Symphonia has always been one of my favorite games ever since it came out, and in a spurt of recent fandom revival I decided to create a site dedicated to its immensely plot-twisty story. That said, you won't find weapon lists or boss strategies here; I will only talk about gameplay mechanics if they somehow relate to the plot and its characters.

I think it goes without saying that there are MAJOR SPOILERS across the breadth of this site. If you are looking for a spoiler-free introduction, please visit the respective section. Also, please keep in mind that the majority of the site is based on the English Gamecube version of ToS.

Confused about where to go? The site map below will give you a brief summary of all the pages.
