History Characters / BladeSkillOnline

* MistakenForRomance: Although he hits on Yuri, by accident, on a repeated basis, and they like to hang out when they're not trying to pound each other to death, they are JustFriends, but since they look so cute together, the fanbase of the game continuously asks if the two are dating. They're not. It doesn't help that he gave Yuri a '''ring''' of protection vs poison before the start of the first {{PVP}} event before a large audience.

* KillerGM: For Yuri especially, archers, crafters, and summoners in general. They have no concept of competetive balance, or very little understanding of it. They intentionally make bows the worst possible weapon, and summoners the worst possible class, by making bows have horrifically poor accuracy, even in the hands of people who excel in archery before entering the game, in addition to making all but the beginner bow dependent on strength, while the archery class itself is dependent on agility. For summoners, they have no way to attack unless they tame monsters and they have to beat monsters in a fight first to tame them. Even then, the chances of taming are very low and the summoner has to basically solo the monster they want to tame. Then crafters are entirely dependent on combat-oriented players, since crafters have zero combat capability and the combat oriented players can either pvp them with immunity or demand exorbitant rates for the crafting materials. As for Yuri, the devs try to nerf him every chance they get because he succeeds brilliantly ''in spite'' of all these pitfalls and drawbacks.

* AxCrazy: Coming from the pvp near exclusive game Sengoku Rokudo Online, where every encounter is a fight to the death with other players, she makes Yuri, at "her" most violent outbursts like the epitome of sanity by comparison.

* DropTheHammer: Craftsmen are usually incapable of combat, but she can bash people and monsters with a hammer if she's cornered and has to fight

! Player assassins

[[folder: Kirika, of the Asura Realm]]
The first of the player assassins "from another world" to appear in the story. She backstabs Zancrow as he was sitting and chatting with Yuri in the town where Zancrow set up his guild base. She and Zancrow have a history.

* AxCrazy: Coming from the pvp near exclusive game Sengoku Rokudo Online, where every encounter is a fight to the death with other players, she makes Yuri, at "her" most violent outbursts like the epitome of sanity by comparison.
* CombatPragmatist: She fights dirty, always.
* KimonoFanservice: Her avatar wears a kimono to make herself even more appealing, for the purposes of getting her target's guard down.

[[folder: Alice, the Queen of Wrath]]
The second of the assassins introduced, coming hot off the heels of Kirika. She's the top player of Darkness Soul Online and came after Yuri and Zancrow upon Kirika's failure.

* ElegantGothicLolita: She looks like a pre-teen and dresses in the gothic style.
* GlassCannon: She can put out immense fire-power with her spells, but lacks defense.
* HandicappedBadass: In reality, she's a paraplegic, so her avatar can't move either, but choosing a mage build allows her to dish out insane amounts of firepower.

[[folder: Pendragon, the Goddess of Dawn]]
The last of the assassins and their leader. Just when Yuri had the upper hand against Alice, at horrific cost, she shows up and starts literally cutting Yuri apart like sashimi.

* CombatPragmatist: Backstabbed Yuri as the latter was facing off against Alice, when Yuri was at his weakest.
* DespairGambit: Her favorite way of trying to take down Yuri. Considering he's a SpiritedCompetitor, this repeatedly backfires.
* MasterSwordsman: She's exceptional with the sword.

* {{NEET}}: He spends every waking moment that the server is online in Blade Skill Online, as much as humanly possible, because he's an unemployed loser who still lives in his mother's basement and has neither training nor job prospects, as is mentioned by many characters.
