->''Operator Qanipalaat of a Sami tribe sets his foot on the outside world for the first time.''

* GratuitousForeignLanguage: 'Qanipalaat' is an Inuit term for feathery clumps of snow. His skills also have Inuit names.

->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/TakahiroSakurai (Japanese), Creator/MariyaIse (Japanese, young), Waiwai (Mandarin Chinese), Chang Rongshan (Mandarin Chinese, young), TBA (English)

* MsFanservice: Skyfire is a HotWitch wearing a modest-yet-flattering attire of a dress shirt (that shows off her noticeable chest) as well as a short skirt and pantyhose topped off with heels (which accentuates her shapely legs). Taken up a notch with her Elite 2 artwork (whose artwork focuses on her legs), as well as her summer outfit, which has her in a leg-and-arm-baring, form-fitting swimsuit.

* ArrogantKungFuGirl: Skyfire is ''very'' proud of her innate aptitude with fire-based Arts, and looks down on every single other operator with powers similar to hers but without her finesse and training. She has a troubling opinion of Reed in particular, both because she doesn't believe Reed can properly manifest and manipulate fire like she could, but also because she's actually ''significantly more powerful than that'', her control over her Arts potentially being a mastery over the essence of life itself. {{Irony}} is in full effect when you consider that there are at least two other Casters with [=AoE=] capabilities by way of fire or fire-adjacent Arts who are 6-stars and can dish out more damage than Skyfire herself could. One of them, Ifrit, even has such a high aptitude that it is presumed that hers is ''unnatural''.

* AlphaStrike: His '''Mechanism Analysis''' talent causes him to deal significantly increased damage for a few seconds if his target is above a certain HP threshold, encouraging him to blast a full-health target with everything he's got the moment they enter his range.

* LongRangeFighter: The standard modus operandi as a Caster, but his second talent '''Lone Soldier''' gives him a small attack boost if there are no enemies in the four adjacent tiles, with his cane wreathed in electricity when the buff is active, encouraging him to snipe enemies before they get too close.

* HotWitch: Figuratively and literally, her E2 artwork focus on her legs and she has noticeable chest especially in her summer outfit. The literally part comes from her immense fire arts that she couldn't fully control, resulting in accidentally triggered the fire alarms whenever she goes.

* RescueRomance: One-sided, and the "romance" part is never explicitly stated, but Tomimi holds Gavial in especially high regards after a NoodleIncident in the past where she saved her from a contaminated mine, getting infected in the process. She doted extremely heavily on Gavial afterwards as she recovered, which led to her getting mad, beating the crap out of everyone, and leaving the place.

* {{Yandere}}: She goes to some... ''extreme'' lengths to keep Gavial by her side over the course of ''The Great Chief Returns'', shooting down her transport aircraft so she can't go back to Rhodes Island, rallying her clan together to physically prevent her from leaving once the operators have the means to repair it, then taking Lancet-2 and the pilot as hostages when that doesn't work, all while telling Gavial that she doesn't care if she hates her for it, she's ''going'' to make her stay no matter what. However, after that fails she [[KnowWhenToFoldThem calls it quits]] rather than escalating things any further, and has been able to behave herself since arriving at Rhodes Island.

* TalkingToHimself: A variant InUniverse with his "Epoque: Dream in a Moment" skin where Passenger and his younger self talk to each other about the events that shaped and led to the present Passenger.

An Acuhallan tribe leader and an die-hard fangirl of Gavial, who takes care of Gavial's clan in her absence.

* FantasticRacism: Having personally seen her father die under the hands of Sarkaz mercenaries during the Sarkaz Londinium occupation, Rockrock has a strong hatred and distrust towards the Sarkaz and personally vetoed Stainless's decision to have Rhodes Island help them due to Closure's presence in Chapter 10. That said, an entry in her Operator Archive files (Which takes place some time after the Londinium crisis was dealt with) reveal that she is slowly getting over her initial hatred and belief that all Sarkaz are evil.

* ArrogantKungFuGirl: Skyfire is ''very'' proud of her innate aptitude with fire-based Arts, and looks down on every single other operator with powers similar to hers but without her finesse and training. She has a troubling opinion of Reed in particular, both because she doesn't believe Reed can properly manifest and manipulate fire like she could, but also because she's actually ''significantly more powerful than that'', her control over her Arts potentially being a mastery over the essence of life itself. {{Irony}} is in full effect when you consider that there are at least two other Casters with [=AoE=] capabilities by way of fire or fire-adjacent Arts who are 6-stars and can dish out more damage than Skyfire herself could. One of them, Ifrit, even has such a high aptitude that it is persumed that hers is ''unnatural''.

* OvershadowedByAwesome: Zigzagged. At first glance, some players may not have any incentive to build Steward due to the fact that they obtain the (free) 5-star Amiya right off the bat before he becomes playable, and that is before getting to the part where he is obviously overshadowed in the presence of high-tier ST Casters like Eyjafjalla and Ceobe. However, that is not to say Steward is completely without merits, however, especially since Amiya herself suffers significant drawbacks to her kit that prevents her from being a direct upgrade towards lower-rarity Casters.

* RandomEffectSpell: Upon reaching Elite 1, Tomimi gains '''Protection Plan for Gavial''', which at Skill Level 1, makes it such that every attack has a 50% chance to randomly trigger one of the following effects:
** Stun the target for .6 seconds.
** Increase the damage of that attack by 170%.
** Deal [=AoE=] damage.

* {{Yandere}}: She goes to some... ''extreme'' lengths to keep Gavial by her side over the course of ''The Great Chief Returns'', shooting down her transport aircraft so she can't go back to Rhodes Island, rallying together her clan to physically prevent her from leaving once the operators have the means to repair it, then taking Lancet-2 and the pilot as hostages when that doesn't work, all while telling Gavial that she doesn't care if she hates her for it, she's ''going'' to make her stay no matter what. However, after that fails she [[KnowWhenToFoldThem calls it quits]] rather than escalating things any further, and has been able to behave herself since arriving at Rhodes Island.

* AnimalMotifs: Seals, as shown through her cherished plush seal Pillow, her whisker-like facial markings, and more subtly in how the shape of her hair resembles a seal's round, stout body.

* AnimalMotifs: Seals, as shown in her whisker-like facial marks. Her hair also mimicks their round, stout body.

* DissonantSerenity: Unlike his younger self, Passenger is a very calm and calculated young man, even in dire situations, but this doesn't fully hide his anger and frustration at what happened in his past.
