History Characters / FragileDreamsFarewellRuinsOfTheMoon

* TomatoSurprise: [[spoiler:It's implied that his personality was copied into an [=AI=] mainframe and became Shin, and indirectly sent Seto to stop Shin. This isn't said in-game but in an interview with Kawashima.]]

* ApocalypseMaiden: [[spoiler: Shin intends to use Ren as the new "catalyst"]]; averted by the end of the game.

* MysteriousWaif: Ren fits the archetype - no back-story to explain her origins, no reason as to why [[spoiler:Shin uses her to be the second catalyst for Class Cage]], yet is the primary motivation for Seto to pursue her.

An interactive digital assistant found in the subway tunnels, Personal Frame (or "PF) helps Seto in return for rescuing her from a lonely fate.

Crow is a mischievous boy Seto encounters at the abandoned amusement park, who directs him to a nearby dilapidated hotel, where he might find Ren.

* ArtificialHuman: [[spoiler: Is an android]]
* DeceptivelyHumanRobots: [[spoiler: Up until his last moments, you wouldn't have known he was a robot]]
* DiedInYourArmsTonight: [[spoiler: Seto holds him in his arms, as Crow's batteries deplete.]]
* ForcefulKiss: To Seto, however, this is because he, [[spoiler: being a robot]], thinks kissing is what friends do.
* IdiotsCannotCatchColds: One of Crow's taunts when he steals Seto's locket

* MouthyKid: Although he's [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold actually a nice guy]]
* RoboticReveal: [[spoiler: The last time Crow sees Seto, he explains that he's a robot and that, because of that, the two of them can't be friends. In tears, Seto quickly tells him that they ''are'' friends and the skull ring is proof of that, as the latter dies in his arms, thanking him for being his friend]].
* YellowEyesOfSneakiness: Subversion. He's more mischievous than he is sneaky.

* CuteGhostGirl: As we find out,[[spoiler: she was DeadAllAlong and followed Seto on his journey because she had nothing better to do and, yes, she's pretty cute]]
* DeadAllAlong: An odd case as [[spoiler: the player gets few clues, while Seto doesn't really notice and thinks the dead body (hers) is someone else's. This is hammered home at the end, when she says the below:]]
-->''[[spoiler: "For good luck. Hahaha. I guess it’s pretty weird for a ghost to be talking about good luck. Come back alive, okay? And Seto… whatever you do, stop him."]]''
* DrivenToSuicide: It's not really clear, but it is implied, retroactively, when Seto first meets her, in which case, [[spoiler: we see a syringe and vial in the room where her body is and said suicide seems to have been recent (her body isn't decomposed).]]
* EveryScarHasAStory: Hers are from being a [[spoiler: human guinea pig in the creation of the Glass Cage]].
* GirlsLoveStuffedAnimals: Has a stuffed (or inflated) pig on her right arm
* MysteriousWaif: She just shows up out of nowhere and we don't find out her backstory until much later.
* NoodleIncident: Two:
** One is how she got into the [=KK=] Hotel where Seto first meets her. Not even the director (Kawashima) knows.
** The other one is [[spoiler: how she died, exactly. We know that the Glass Cage has something to do her passing away, however, it might not have directly played a part, because, from the room Seto finds her dead body, there's vial with a syringe and her body isn't decomposed, implying that she survived for a little while after the Glass Cage catastrophe, before killing herself (supposing she even did)]].

* TragicKeepsake: The ring she wants Seto to find [[spoiler:belonged her to lost love]].

* NoodleIncident: [[spoiler:It's not said how she died, but considering the setting of the game it was likely illness or starvation.]]

A baby that that the Merchant looked after, after a disaster devastated humanity.

* DeathOfAChild: [[spoiler: Yes, and the Merchant is unaware, thinking she is sleeping.]]
* NoodleIncident: It's not said how [[spoiler: she died]] but we can guess it was illness or starvation, considering the setting of the game.
* ParentalAbandonment: She did survive a short while after the disaster killed her parents.
* PosthumousCharacter: [[spoiler: She died before the events of the game and the Merchant isn't aware of this]].
* UnknownCharacter: Besides that she was a member of a human family the Merchant was once employed by and that [[spoiler:passed away]], there really isn't anything to know.

The 15 year-old [[TheHero protagonist]] of ''Fragile Dreams'', when his grandfather passes away, Seto inherits his blue stone and follows his instructions to locate a "[[TokyoTower red tower to the East]]" in hopes of finding other survivors.
[[hardline]]

!Ren

Ren is a mysterious silver-hair girl, and the first human Seto encounters after leaving the observatory. Unfortunately, she seems wary of him and runs away, leading him to chase after her throughout the game.
[[hardline]]

!Personal Frame

[[hardline]]

!Crow

[[hardline]]

!Chiyo

[[hardline]]

* IWasQuiteALooker: The Chiyo we and Seto see is really [[spoiler: her older self's spirit]], however, from that we do know that Chiyo was really pretty in her youth.
* OlderThanTheyLook: [[spoiler:She's the spirit of a dying old woman]].
* TragicKeepsake: [[spoiler: Her ring belonged her to lost love]].

!Shin

The antagonist and the [[spoiler: first test subject of the Glass Cage]].
[[hardline]]
* AlasPoorVillain: [[spoiler:Try not to tell us you don't feel for the guy when you realize his PsychicPowers brought him nothing but pain and misery]].
%%* BigBad
* DeadAllAlong:[[spoiler: Though we don't find this out until much later]]
* PsychoElectro: Shin is a ''major'' aversion. [[spoiler:While he ''does'' have ShockAndAwe and ''is'' the BigBad, he's a very [[TheStoic calm and collected person]], and never seems particularly insane except for his irritation with vocal communication (which he mainly uses to deflect questions about his actions). He only freaks out during his MotiveRant, and Sai makes him pull a HeelFaceTurn in the middle of it following her declaration of love]].
* WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: [[spoiler:Shin agreed to let himself be the first test subject in the early stages of a project that would boost human empathy to the point where verbal language would be unnecessary. However, he only picked up on the selfish and negative emotions of those around him, leading him to believe that HumansAreTheRealMonsters, thus relegating to activating Class Cage again for a second time, which would really be TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt. All this is stopped when he realized [[ThePowerOfLove Sai was in love with him all along]]]].

[[folder:Minor Cast]]
!Merchant

!!The "Princess"

* PlotTriggeringDeath: His death is what kicks off Seto going on his journey to the Tower.
* TomatoSurprise: [[spoiler: He or, rather, part of him, is really Shin, after his personality was copied into an [=AI=] mainframe. This isn't said in-game but in an interview with Kawashima]].

* DoesNotLikeShoes: She's never seen wearing shoes

* IllGirl: [[spoiler:Expanded in the post-game manga, where Ren needs medicine to stabilize her illness; unfortunately, she's running out of it. YourDaysAreNumbered are certainly in play by the last chapter]].

* {{Bishounen}}

** The other one is [[spoiler how she died, exactly. We know that the Glass Cage has something to do her passing away, however, it might not have directly played a part, because, from the room Seto finds her dead body, there's vial with a syringe and her body isn't decomposed, implying that she survived for a little while after the Glass Cage catastrophe, before killing herself (supposing she even did)]].

* UndyingLoyalty: To his [[spoiler: Princess]] and, by extension, the family was programmed for.
