[[folder:Rashinban Musu / Compass Girl]]
* TheDreaded: Every Admiral is at the mercy of the compass. Pray that the compass fairies don't send your fleet into a dead end after a series of hard fought battles.
* FourTemperamentEnsemble: The four Compass Fairy fit this, even with their limited script.
** Sanguine: The one with a chick. Her face in permanent X3, she talks in MotorMouth, and she's always trembling with excitement every time she spins the compass.
** Choleric: The one dressed like a witch. The most noticeable of the four, dressed gaudily even for the fairy's standard but her speech bubbles always filled with tad bit of trivia.
** Melancholic: The one with the hair clip. Doesn't really stand out, but most hard-working. Ambivalent of anything.
** Phlegmatic: The green-haired one. Always looks sleepy, doesn't talk much, and even that she's pretty apathetic.
