* MightyGlacier: Gariyu hits as hard as other 5-star mages, but has lower Speed than his peers. His Another Style reverses this with a stat allocation that ignores his [[DumpStat pointless PWR and LCK]] for more INT and SPD, turning him into a LightningBruiser.

* GradualGrinder: Toova's Another Style has a focus on accumulating Underworld Lanterns which raise her defense and perform end-of-turn attacks. It's less conducive to Another Force burst strategies but really helps with prolonged battles.

* LethalChef: She thinks of herself as the best dwarven chef in the land. Her food does ''look and smell'' good, but it also has [[MushroomSamba weird side effects]]. Those who eat her food black out and never seem to remember the taste, and this [[ComicallyMissingThePoint misinforms Lovely about her skills]]. Samora is one of the few people who can stay conscious long enough to know the truth, [[AcquiredPoisonImmunity only because he's been eating Lovely's cooking for a long time]].
* LetsMeetTheMeat: Lampshaded. One point in her sidequests has her give a sidelong glance to her piglet partner Bukulyn while talking about ingredients for her next dish.

* DifficultButAwesome: Her main skills [[RandomEffectSpell have different additional effects]] depending on the card she draws, and so she requires the assistance of her other line of skills to [[LuckManipulationMechanic influence the next card drawn]]. Due to LimitedMoveArsenal restricting what she can carry, those who choose to use her opt to specialize her towards one color's aspects, as she doesn't have the ability to stay flexible.



* MasterOfNone: Her gimmicky skills work against her when measured against other support units. She frequently needs to split her function across two different actions -- one to fix the card she draws for her next skill -- and is a lot less flexible than other support units. The three skill slots allocated to any one party member means that she will never have access to all of her kit at any one time, forcing her to give up some degree of card draw manipulation, or its associated payout.

A young girl who works as a maid for Sheila. Sheila saved her life long ago, and so now Chiyo wants nothing more than to become like her. However she's more than a little clumsy, which often leads to trouble. She loves to swim, and will want to jump into any body of water she sees.

* ZeroPercentApprovalRating: Nobody in the Dragon Palace, especially the other guards, likes her because she's the favorite of the Otohime, taking their displeasure with his cruel rule on her. This changes [[spoiler:once Otohime absorbs the power of Leviathan and the guards realize their cowardice.]]
* AnimalMotifs: Squids. Her nickname is "Squid" and her hat and pants evoke a squid's head and tentacles.

** Even in her Dream introduction, she finishes up a snack she was having before speaking to Aldo.

A lively woman who hates having to think about things. This causes her to act naive, and also somewhat blunt and violent. When she puts her mind to something, she can never let go of it. She likes sea turtles and is connected to the Dragon Palace somehow.
----
* ConfrontingYourImposter: [[spoiler: She wants to meet the Otohime, because she's the real Otohime. Subverted though. The current Otohime is a conquering tyrant, but he's technically no imposter. Sheila just happens to be from further in the past, being the 25th.]]
* FriendOrFoe: She often attacks people she perceives as an enemy without asking question. She assumes the fishman that rescued her from a barrel was actually the one who shoved her in the barrel, and assumes the Prai is bullying a sea turtle for no reason.
* GodSaveUsFromTheQueen: Sheila was a really incompetent ruler. Her reign was noted to have been rife with political corruption. She gave the Dragon Palace's economy hyperinflation, and gave sea turtles so many privileges that they acted above everyone else. In the end she left the Dragon Palace ripe for an usurper to take the throne.
* IdiotHero: Sheila really isn't the brightest bulb in the box and acts out of impulses, and more than once her actions have bad consequences.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: The false Otohime needed blood from a true Otohime to open Pandora's Box. He'd killed the last Otohime and sealed Sheila in a barrel to die, but then Sheila came back and recklessly attacked him. This gave him the blood he needed to break the seal.
* OnlyFriend: At one point she mentions that Chiyo was the only one she could really talk to growing up. Nagi decides to offer her friendship at this point.
* UnfitForGreatness: [[spoiler: She tried to be a good ruler, but because she didn't understand the consequences of her actions, her decisions caused more harm than good. Her own advisors tried to get rid of her for the sake of the kingdom.]]

----
* BloodKnight: He's always up for a challenge. When Aldo tells him he killed the Flame Eater, Gariyu's reaction is attacking him, since Aldo is clearly the better challenge.
* DefeatMeansPlayable: The last part of Gariyu's recruitment sidequest is to fight him. Defeat him and he joins your party.
* DoubleUnlock: Unlike Azami and Cerrine, Gariyu starts in your team as a whooping ''2-star'' unit, lower than the ComMons, requiring more scripts and tomes to bring him to 5-star.
* DifficultySpike: Like Azami and Cerrine, Gariyu is unlocked after a series of fights against a boss. Unlike them, where you can unleash Another Force to crush the opposition, the Flame Eater is one of the few bosses, aside from the superbosses, who can chew and spit out your party without a very precise strategy.
* MightyGlacier: Gariyu hits as hard as other 5-star mages, but has lower Speed than his peers.
* ScissorsCutsRock: His plan to kill the Flame Eater, a phoenix in all but name, is to burn it. As in, burn a creature that ''thrives'' in flames and fire. It ends up [[AvertedTrope averted]], to his surprise.
* UnskilledButStrong: His magic style is very crude and can be summed up as "make a fireball as big and hot as possible". And Gariyu can make ''big and hot'' fireballs.

----

* ContractOnTheHitman: She takes a job to protect someone from the "Flower of Death", mostly because she wanted to know who was framing her for a contract she never had.
* DoesNotLikeShoes
* IDidWhatIHadToDo: After she was banned from her home for unknown reasons, she ended up in Palsifal with nothing but her sword and the clothes on her back. Doing assassin work was her only option to survive.
* [[ImplacableMan Implacable Woman]]: Once she's got you in her sights, the question is not "If" but "When will you die". [[spoiler:Being her employer won't save you.]]

[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/raven_7.png]]
A self-admitted necromancer, Raven is wreathed in darkness and death. He has no memory of his past, and hides his scarred face behind a mask. Not wanting to be studied, he prefers to do things on his own and shuns away people.
----
* DarkIsNotEvil: Despite being a complete asshole necromancer and admitting he dabbles in the darkest arts, he's on the good guy's side.
* DishingOutDirt: As there is no "Dark" element fitting his job as a Warlock, he uses Earth spells instead.
* {{Jerkass}}: He is rude, cold and condescending towards everybody, including Aldo. His dialog is mostly composed of barbs mixed with threats. Verges a ''tiny'' bit towards JerkWithAHeartOfGold at the end of his quests, [[spoiler:when he summons the spirit of a dead man so he can say goodbye to his lover]].
* SillyRabbitIdealismIsForKids: He considers Aldo a "blasted fool" for always lending a hand to people in need.
* WistfulAmnesia: He knows something's missing about his memories, but he only has faint clues about what or why. Seeing his interest in the [[UltimateEvil Dark Vortex]] and that he's a necromancer, it might have something to do with his job.

A practitioner of a strange martial art known as "Magic Blade." A drifter, Shanie travels from place to place, seemingly with no end in sight. Due to her looks and good nature, she's often approached by suitors. Clearly something she's trying to avoid.
----
* ChainmailBikini: Minor example. She wears standard armor on her legs and arms... And a skimpy tunic on her torso.
* [[ChickMagnet Dude Magnet]]: She has been cursed since her childhood to have men fall for her at first sight, which drove her out of her hometown, being distrusful with men and forced her to be a wanderer. Her character quests are focused on her efforts to undo this curse. [[spoiler:To her absolute dismay, it's ''still'' the case even after her curse is broken due to her stunning looks.]]
* MagicKnight: Lots of characters can use magic alongside weapons, but Shanie is the only one to be acknowledged as a spellsword.
* MakingASplash: Her attacks are Water-based and can drastically lower the Water resistance of enemies, making her a great power multiplier for Water-based teams.
* MsFanservice: One look at her is enough to understand why men want to marry her as soon as they see her.
* ThePowerOfLove: Those who fall for her curse go to hell and back to conquer her, getting bolder the more they're cursed. [[spoiler:Her curse is lifted once she herself falls in love with someone, in her case Aldo.]]

* AttractiveZombie: She refuses to mention how old she actually is (something Aldo learns the hard way), but she does reveal she’s actually a reanimated corpse.

* {{Necromancer}}: She calls forth the dead for her attacks.
* PowerAtAPrice: Her Dark Deal skill gives her a sharp Intelligence boost at the cost of 30% of her HP.

----
* DamageOverTime: Her Invoked Spirit skill is one of the few available sources of Megapoison. This ailment behaves like a much stronger version of standard poison, capable of ticking for thousands of damage per round.
* LiesToChildren: Her family told her she couldn't summon rain because she angered the rain spirits as a child. In reality, her rainmaking abilities are so powerful that, ''as a newborn'', she summoned a storm so big the valley where her village was is today a lake.
* MagicFeather: Her final quest involves her anxiety over losing control of her powers. After she summons a torrential downpour to disable a mage's golem, Aldo hands her a shard of the broken RestrainingBolt she had on her, convincing her it's a seal. This is to give her the confidence to rein in her powers.
* {{Miko}}: She's a shrine maiden hailing from the east.
* PowerIncontinence: She wears an enchanted mirror to keep her powers under control. A long-term source of conflict in her questline stems from her inability to rein in her powers once she starts.
* ShrinkingViolet: She has very little confidence in her abilities and skills. This turns out to be a problem as she can't use or control her rainmaking powers correctly due to her insecurities.
* SupportPartyMember: Many of her skills focus on aiding her teammates and hindering her enemies.
* WeatherManipulation: Because of her spirit, Yuna has the ability to make it rain.
