Shelinda

Shelinda is a non-player character in Final Fantasy X. She is a devout follower of Yevon.

When the party first meets Shelinda on the Mi'ihen Highroad, she is trying to convince the Crusaders to stop their operation to defeat Sin, Operation Mi'ihen, but nobody listens to her. Yuna encourages her to continue what she is doing, for the benefit of the people of Yevon.

She later appears in Macalania, where she informs the party that Maester Seymour Guado has left for the Macalania Temple. She has heard rumours that Yuna and Seymour are to be married, and depending on the player's actions, this rumour could be confirmed or reported as false.

After the party defeats Yunalesca, and Sin crashes down on Bevelle, Yevon is in turmoil. She has seemingly from out of nowhere been promoted to Captain of the guard. The party demands to see Grand Maester Mika. After the meeting, where the unsent Mika leaves Spira in its time of need, she seems unaware that they have actually met him, and they tell her that he never showed up.

Final Fantasy X-2
After the defeat of Sin and the coming of the Eternal Calm, Shelinda has become a reporter for a local Sphere broadcast station. She interviews the Gullwings. Strangely, she hasn't changed her outfit since she decided to leave Yevon.
