History Characters / MasouKishin

The first "Banpresto Original" to appear in ''Super Robot Wars'' (although the ''actual'' first is the BigBad from ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TStgcNJd6vE SD Hero Soukesen]]'', an obscure UsefulNotes/{{Famicom}} game that set the formula for ''The Great Battle'' series[[note]]Later known as [[Characters/CompatiHeroSeries Dark Brain]][[/note]]), Masaki's a loud-mouthed, HotBlooded young man with NoSenseOfDirection who's the Herald of the Elemental Lord of Wind Cybuster. He's actually an Earthling from Japan, but gets summoned to La Gias by force, which wasn't much of a problem for him since [[ParentalAbandonment he'd been alone for a long time]]. There, he is chosen to be the next Herald of the Cybuster, gets the familiar cats Kuro and Shiro, and gains allies in the Kingdom of Langran, who created the Elemental Lords.

** LightningBruiser: Remedied by her high evasion stat, which is the best in the games ([[CharlesAtlasSuperpower for good reason]]), the Valsione's "Mirror Image" ability[[note]]Gain a 50% chance of evading any attack[[/note]], and a "Full Upgrade Bonus" that increases the rate of activating Mirror Image.

* PickyEater: Does not like bell peppers.

* SurvivorsGuilt: Her twin Tuddy died just shortly after she was born, and ever since then Wendy has felt guilt on surviving and not letting Tuddy have a normal life.

* ChestBlaster: Duraxyl's "Mega Smasher"

* MagikarpPower: InUniverse, Shu convinces Tellius that while he's powerful, he needs confidence and training.

* EvilLaugh: Likes to spam this a lot to show how deranged he is.
* ForScience: His 'basic' goal, in addition of being just deranged and a {{Sadist}} in general.

** SoftspokenSadist: Unlike Zet, on the other hand, Lubikka does not spam EvilLaugh like no tomorrow, he speaks like a professional killer, only raising his voice and showing his deranged nature a few times.

* DecoyProtagonist: Serves as one to Masaki in ''Coffin of the End''
** {{Deuteragonist}}/SupportingProtagonist: While his role is reduced once Masaki returns, much of the plot for ''Coffin of the End'' still comes from his point-of-view, given he's meant be the AudienceSurrogate.

** BGMOverride: Whenever Raveraid's SuperMode is activated.

* {{Irony}}: Despite having a {{Leitmotif}} with a name like "Hero", [[spoiler:Teal fails to save his girlfriend and dies in the process]].

** BadassAbnormal: The [[SuperMode Neo Granzon]], upon tapping into the dark power of Volkruss, though it's not as strong as a Full Possession-Elemental Lord. At the same time, the Neo Granzon is by no means directly tied to Volkruss - when the dark god unlocks the Neo Granzon, Shu has [[CurbStompBattle no trouble]] [[HoistByHisOwnPetard wiping the floor with it]] and still maintains the SuperMode in the future for his own use.

** BGMOverride: [[spoiler:In ''Dark Prison'', "Dark Prison Version OG DP" overrides even Volkruss' {{Leitmotif}}]]

* TheLeader: Of his team in ''Dark Prison''; compounded by Shu having access to the "Leadership" pilot skill allowing him to do perform a "[[AttackPatternAlpha Maximum Break]]".

[[quoteleft:136:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/xn_l_avatar.png]]

The [[Characters/CompatiHeroSeries same character]] from ''The Great Battle'' series, XN-L is part of the Kadoam Hakam who brought forth a civilization to overcome "The Trial", specifically the setting where ''The Great Battle'' series takes place. Appearing in the final scenario of ''The Moon Dwellers'', XN-L emerges from the Cross Gate outside of Earth space after having been tortured by evil spirits for an unknown period of time. Though he was TheDragon of the "[[Characters/CompatiHeroSeries Dark Brain Cult]]" in ''The Great Battle'' installments, XN-L is {{Retooled}} in ''Original Generation'' as a slumbering Kadoam Hakam, attached on the ''Grandread Fenossa'' as a divine idol.

* CoolSword: Cybuster's "Discutter" is its weapon; in the UsefulNotes/NintendoDS UpdatedRerelease of ''The Lord of Elemental'', the new "Vanity Ripper" is introduced, giving the Cybuster the ability to {{DualWield}}ing. Both blades can combine into a single {{BFS}}.
* CrucifiedHeroShot: The Cybuster in ''Coffin of the End''
* DeathOfAThousandCuts: Cybuster's "Discutter: Ranbu no Tachi"

* {{Expy}}

-->'''Masaki''': You're pathetic, Shu!! I can't believe you'd actually fall under the control the influence of a ghost from the past !!

-->'''Masaki''' Do you want me to KILL you again, Shu ?

-->'''Masaki''': Did I reach him ?

-->'''Masaki''':Tsk, It wasn't enough. What am I going to do ?

-->'''Masaki''': Is this what you want, Shu ?! You always talk so high and mighty, but you so easily fell under the control of a goddamn monster !
-->'''Shu''': Urgh! Are you saying ... that you are ... better than me, Masaki ?

-->'''Masaki''': If you don't like it, then stop being a wuss and break free already !

* NoSenseOfDirection

* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: Against Shu when he kills Zeoroot

* TransformingMecha: Cybuster's "Cybird" form
* UnwantedHarem: The bait of it, which is hilarious considering polygamy is ''legal'' in La Gias.

* AsiaRuneChant

* CombinationAttack: With Tytti in ''Revelation of Evil God''

* BrainwashedAndCrazy: Lubikka did this to her before Ricardo saved her

* ChestBlaster: While she's piloting a mass-produced Regelior-AR.

Why would he give his daughter a pink-haired mecha musume version of herself to pilot? '''It's a father's hobby'''.

* Foil: To Raidiese. It's hard to not compare the two. They look similar, they have the same voice actors, they are head of a prestigious family. The main difference is that Rai rejected his family and Feilord embraced it and he's terminally ill, so he tries to unite the land under his will before he passes on.

* WaveMotionGun: Duraxyl's "Buster Cannon"

-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/HisaoEgawa

Thai Elemental Machine pilot, usually referred as "Tian". Former Muay Thai champion turned monk... who still indulges in vices like good foods or women or booze under the pretense of hiding the negative karma from everyone. But he's still rather religious and consider all those vices temptations that live with him. He survives Part 2 of ''The Lord of Elemental'', but pulls a HeroicSacrifice in ''Revelations of the Evil God'' for the sake of Mio, inspiring her to become a better Elemental Lord Herald. Pilots the Elemental Machine Dinforce.

[[folder:Shie Demekusa]]

African Elemental Machine pilot. A man who's almost too nice for his own good. Pilots the Elemental Machine Falk. After ''Another Century's Episode R'' Demekusa fixes Ryusei's damaged ART-1 off-screen before he rejoins the Hiryu team in ''2nd Super Robot Wars OG''.

[[folder:Maddock [=McOnnel=]]]

* HiddenDepths: She's a CloudCuckoolander who once accidentally used the men's shower, yet she can actually keep up with Xenia's technobabble.
* {{Leitmotif}}: "Easy Going"
* MoreDakka: Her Delgiran is essentially the "[[Anime/MobileSuitGundamWing Heavyarms]]" of Elemental Machines, stuffed to the brim with guns and missiles.

[[quoteright:234:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/gido.png]]

* BadassInANiceSuit: Though he doesn't wear a tie
* {{Expy}}: The ''Franchise/JamesBond'' of ''Super Robot Wars'' - his {{Leitmotif}} and final attack called "Under the Gun" are effectively {{Lampshade}}s of the series. Furthermore, compare his character design to the facial appearance of Creator/DanielCraig, who portrayed Bond when Gido made his debut.
* CasanovaWannabe: In his first appearance, he tries to woo Lune and Wendy; It goes on from there. However, Simone takes the crown as the first person to call him out for his antics.
%%* DeathDealer
%%* GunsAkimbo
* {{Leitmotif}}: "License To Kill"

[[folder:Remia Zania Valfarbia]]

Zashford's older sister, Remia is an expert in treating the injured but is also a good fighter (especially in wrestling), in contrast to her graceful appearance. She gains the title "Remis the Submissioner".

* BigSisterBully: Some of her battle quotes have her shamelessly mention that she tests her fighting moves on Zash. It's so bad that, even before she's shown in person, ''The Lord of Elemental'''s remake gives Zash quotes where he claims that the pressure he feels when fighting boss-level characters "don't compare to that of his sister."
* {{BFG}}: Inherits the Euleed's Hyper Cannon.
* DistaffCounterpart: Subverted with the Galguardia; despite its name, the machine is not a feminine Galguard, but a near-identical machine with large caliber guns and drops the swords the Galguard uses for ''even more arms''.
* HotBlooded: Just in case [[CallingYourAttacks shouting the attack name]] alone is enough to tell players she is one.
* {{Leitmotif}}: "Rampage"
* MultiArmedAndDangerous: The Galguard may have four arms, but the Galguardia has ''six'', perfect for Remia as she makes brutal beatdowns a specialty.

* SheCleansUpNicely: In ''Pride of Justice'', her overall look changes so drastically Masaki can't remember that it's her.

* {{Leitmotif}}: "A Tasteful Gentleman"
* OfficerAndAGentleman: Oh yes. He's a model soldier who is kind to everyone, even to normal soldiers alike and little girls, in particular Presia, to the point that some soldiers think that he's ''also'' a lolicon.
* SomethingAboutARose: Gino is always seen around with a rose nearby.

[[folder:Zet Laas Blakio]]
-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/ShigeruChiba

An AxCrazy MadScientist. Used to be one of the high councils of Langran Academy of Alchemy, but his lust for mad science without care of the rules and human lives got him banished. And for 30 years, he desired vengeance for his banishment, getting himself a position in Bagonia and actually holding power within. He plans for the super machine Gattswo to carry out his vengeance against Langran, which just required a brain of a certain someone...

* AxCrazy: Did we mention that he's very unhinged?
* DrunkOnTheDarkSide: As he used to be a council member of the Langran Academy of Alchemy. Once he tried the dark science, he got addicted to the point he's banished from it.
* EvilLaugh: Likes to spam this a lot to show how deranged he is.
* ForScience: His 'basic' goal, in addition of being just deranged and a {{Sadist}} in general.
* LackOfEmpathy: He has no concerns about other people. If it furthers his dark research, he could care less about how many lives will be lost.
* MadScientist: A typical, but particularly NASTY one.
* ObviouslyEvil: Look at his face and how he has no subtlety in what he does ForScience Obviously not a good guy.
* {{Revenge}}: He wants Langran to pay for banishing him.
* {{Sadist}}: In addition of his over the top evilness and [[MadScientist Mad Science]], he ''really'' likes to see the pain and suffering of others. If Lubikka was ever hired by Bagonia, they'd get along so well...
* TyrantTakesTheHelm: He's pretty much controlling Bagonia, and the nation suffers because of it.

!Shutedonias Alliance

[[folder:Jog Kanwort]]

A Shutedonias soldier who dreams of become the most famed warrior in La Gias.

* CoolOldGuy: Referred to as "old man" and is an easy-going dude, despite being in Shutedonias.
* EnemyMine: Pulls one when he brings Elis to fight Volkruss.
* HeelFaceTurn: Not until Part 2 of ''The Lord of Elemental''
* HeroicBSOD: Failing to [[spoiler:rescue Elis in Part 2 of ''The Lord of Elemental'']] will result in his loss of the will to fight and [[PermanentlyMissableContent permanently leaving]].

[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/nico__rico_8946.jpg]]
-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/MiyukiSawashiro (both)

A pair of {{Ace Pilot}}s from the southern part of the Shutedonias army, Nico and Rico Sandriff are described as idols. Masaki is one of a few people who manages to tell who is who much to their joy that they end up calling him "big brother". They later officially join the "Anti-Antillas" group. The twins pilot the powerful twin Elemental Machine Kyoumei Aka/Ao.

* AlwaysIdenticalTwins: They look completely alike; InUniverse, only a few people such as Masaki and Sakito can tell who is who (players can easily spot the difference - Rico has a small mole on her cheeks).
* BadassAdorable: The youngest members of the cast, yet are exceptionally skilled pilots
%%* CombinationAttack: With each other, naturally.
* {{Leitmotif}}: "Gemini Idol"
* RedOniBlueOni: Nico (pilot of the Kyoumei Aka) is battle-ready, more confident and a GenkiGirl, while Rico (pilot of the Kyoumei Ao) is more reserved, shy. and an ApologeticAttacker. MeaningfulName ensues as "aka" and "ao" mean "red" and "blue" in Japanese, respectively.
* YoungerThanTheyLook: Despite their appearance and ability, many can mistake them for being late-aged teenagers when they're only about 14 - 15 years old, a good reason why they get along very well with Presia.

[[folder:Lubikka Hakinnen]]
[[quoteright:256:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/rubikka.png]]
-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/TakashiNagasako

[[ForTheEvulz A terrorist from the surface world who kills people for fun]], Lubikka Hakinnen [[YouKilledMyFather is responsible for the death of Tytti's family]] (right in front of her, no less). In a twist, he is summoned into La Gias in ''The Lord of Elemental'' Part 1 and is chosen to be the Herald of the Gaddeath, until Tytti interferes to reveal his crimes on the surface. Langran authorities immediately place him under arrest, but Lubikka manages to escape, killing his prison guards and flees to Shutedonias, [[PsychoForHire becoming a mercenary-for-hire]]. Sometime later, he returns from hiding, swearing {{Revenge}} against Tytti by hypontizing her, but she breaks free thanks to Ricardo. In retaliation, he attempts to shoot her dead, but Ricardo [[TakingTheBullet takes the shot for her]], and dies from further gunshot wounds. Lubikka makes his quick escape again.

He resurfaces down the line, now serving as TheDragon to General Lasett Novaste, but is killed in combat.

* ArchEnemy: Of Tytti, but subverted because rather than continue to haunt Tytti after he dies, she gets over it quickly. Additionally, his screentime is overtaken by Lasett's madness, including the Wendy-Tuddy sub-plot. Ultimately, Lubikka winds up dying as an EliteMook rather than a major antagonist.
* {{Expy}}: Inverted; Lubikka is likely the predecessor of [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationAntagonists Archibald Grims]].
* FourEyesZeroSoul: Wears his glasses and he holds up as one of the most monstrous humans in the OG-verse.
* ItsPersonal: Goes both ways; not only can Tytti not forgive him for her family's slaughter, he ''hates'' her for humiliating him in front of the Kingdom of Langran by revealing his transgressions against her on the surface, when he's nearly about to become a Herald (which would've given him immunity from breaking the law).
* PsychoForHire: If the pay is good, he'll lend his brand of murder into anyone. Including the Volkruss cult, for a time.
* {{Sadist}}: He enjoys the suffering of others. In particular, he's really delighted in witnessing Tytti cowering in fear when he killed her parents and brother right in front of her, and his idea of 'first aid' on Ricardo is 'two or three more bullets right in his body' (he already got shot once). Kind of a surprise that he never heard of Bagonia led by [[MadScientist Zet]], who's similarly a nutcase {{Sadist}} like him.
** SoftspokenSadist: Unlike Zet, on the other hand, Lubikka does not spam EvilLaugh like no tomorrow, he speaks like a professional killer, only raising his voice and showing his deranged nature a few times.

The very first enemy that Masaki encountered. As Masaki learned about the harshness of war, his friends were killed in action, instilling his desire to exact vengeance on Masaki, in which he failed, but it allowed him to reunite with his friends in the afterlife.

* MauveShirt: He gets a bit more characterization, but has the same face as generic terrorists.
* PunchClockVillain: Before the introduction of Rodney and the Sandriff twins, this guy is the sign that not everyone in Shutedonia are heartless monsters, just merely soldiers looking for their paycheck.
* {{Retirony}}: His friends suffer these cases, one of them already had a family and children waiting at home, the other one was just about to get married. And then Masaki killed them.
* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: Nonetheless, he's not pleased with Masaki for murdering his friends.
* YourTerroristsAreOurFreedomFighters: He's labelled as a terrorist in the eyes of the Langran Kingdom, but amongst Shutedonians, he and his kin were justified at his time by the Shutedonias Alliance who feared that the Langran Kingdom might abuse the Elemental Lord project for conquest.

!Kingdom of Radat

[[folder:In General]]
Introduced in ''Revelation of Evil God'', the Kingdom of Radat is an Oriental-style nation housing several {{Samurai}}-like characters. They reappear in ''Pride of Justice'', aligning with the Kingdom of Langran.

!Republic of Almera

[[folder:Sakito Asagi]]
[[quoteright:225:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sakito_555.jpg]]
-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/KaitoIshikawa

Protagonist of the first half in ''Coffin of the End'', Sakito is another surface dweller from Japan who winds up in the Republic of Almera. He is the pilot of the Raveraid.

* AudienceSurrogate: Unlike Masaki who has lived in La Gais for quite sometime, Sakito is completely foreign to the world. His reactions and thoughts are likely meant for newcomers who start ''Masou Kishin'' with ''Coffin of the End''.
* {{BFS}}: Raveraid's "Integral Calibur"
* DarkIsNotEvil: The Raveraid is powered by the ''souls of the dead'', yet Sakito is clearly heroic.
* DecoyProtagonist: Serves as one to Masaki in ''Coffin of the End''
** {{Deuteragonist}}/SupportingProtagonist: While his role is reduced once Masaki returns, much of the plot for ''Coffin of the End'' still comes from his point-of-view, given he's meant be the AudienceSurrogate.
* FriendlyFireProof: Raveraid's "Tracial Cannon"
* IKnowYoureInThereSomewhereFight: [[spoiler:Tries to rescue Phyllis Jaraba a few scenarios before the finale. Whether he pulls it off or not depends on the final route choice made several scenarios ago]].
%%* IJustWantToBeNormal: At first anyway.
* InstantExpert: Averted; he isn't exactly good at piloting the Raveraid right away but is shown to have potential as he manages to hold out against a group of Magooki, though according to him, he did play Burning PT beforehand.
* {{Leitmotif}}: "Trans-Drive"
** BGMOverride: Whenever Raveraid's SuperMode is activated.
* MidSeasonUpgrade: Goes from the Raveraid to the Raveraid "Light Flyer" and finally the Raveraid "Heavy Blaster".
* NotSoStoic: He rarely smiles and is pretty stoic when things are normal. Unfortunately, what he has to face isn't something a person is meant to see in everyday life, which leads him to this trope.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS
** Is it "Reyblade" or "Reiblade" or "Raveraid"? Of course, the joke is it's anything '''BUT''' "Rayblade" because it's the name of the titular machine from ''Seireiki Rayblade'', the AlternateCompanyEquivalent video game by [=WinkySoft=].
** [[AllThereInTheManual Material books]] ultimately settle with "Raveraid" as the official name, even using it to have some FunWithAcronyms (Raveraid is short for "[=ReActive=] Vital Energy [=RAIDer=]"). Note the in-game dialogue pronounces it as ''Ray-Blade''; this may or may not be intentional as the name can actually be read both ways.
* SuperMode: "Trans-Rise" as soon as the Raveraid's "TR Gauge" goes to 100%.
* TookALevelInBadass: Zigzagged; Sakito starts off as a weak-willed protagonist and swaps between gaining some levels and taking a few HeroicBSOD moments. He eventually becomes a skilled and strong pilot by the end of the game.
%%* WaveMotionGun: Raveraid's "Disintegrator" and Tracial Cannon.

* CrutchCharacter: The Valsioga is one of the best defensive units in ''Coffin of the End'' and Teal has the "Accelerate" Spirit Command[[note]]+3 to movement[[/note]], enabling him to reach the front lines easily. Although he's later eclipsed by Shu and the Elemental Lords, Teal and the Valsioga are still worth a deployment. [[spoiler:Unfortunately, Teal gets KilledOffForReal; while Lionel succeeds him as the Valsioga's pilot, he doesn't have "Accelerate"]].
* ForHappiness: The mood-maker of the the group. He is nice, upbeat and likes to try and cheer his friends up (especially Sakito, who's still afraid for his unknown situation).
* {{Leitmotif}}: "Hero"
* {{Irony}}: Despite having a {{Leitmotif}} with a name like "Hero", [[spoiler:Teal fails to save his girlfriend and dies in the process]].
* WaveMotionGun: Valsioga's "Cross Smasher"; unlike the Valsion Custom, it goes the way of Valsione and unleashes it as a KamehameHadoken.

!Cult of Volkruss

[[folder:In General]]

The main antagonists of the ''Masou Kishin'' saga, the Cult of Volkruss is a ReligionOfEvil led by the mad priest Luozorl Zoran Roiel. Their goal is to revive the [[GodOfEvil dark god]] "Shiva Volkruss", whom the Elemental Lords are prophesized to destroy. With the help of Shu, their {{Brainwashed}} servant to help harvest the souls necessary for Volkruss' resurrection, the Cult also receives the backing of the Shutedonias Alliance, run by the equally ruthless General Lasett. After Shu is killed, Luozorl resurrects him, but unknowingly severs Shu's link with Volkruss, allowing him to rebel against the dark god and the Cult. Tropes regarding the Cult of Volkruss are:

* EvilCounterpart: AllThereInTheManual - [[EliteMook JinOh, Touluk]] and Baiwara are associated with the same spirits that blessed the Granveil, Gaddeath and Zamzeed.

-->''I will not tolerate anyone who tries to manipulate me...[[KillTheGod even if it's a god]].''

The arch-rival of Masaki, Shu is a [[ButNotTooForeign Half-Earthling, half-La Gias]] professor who resides in the subterranean world. In ''The Lord of Elemental'', Shu single-handedly built the Granzon, an incredibly powerful machine that uses void energy. Ever since they first meet, Shu has irritated Masaki often, though he crosses the line when he leaves the Kingdom of Langran to near-smoldering ruins. Enraged, Masaki allows himself to be possessed by Cyfis, the La Gias spirit residing in the Cybuster, to give him an edge against the Granzon. Shu is forced to retreat, having taken too much damage from the super-powered Elemental Lord. He leaves for the surface world to recuperate, with Masaki following in tow.

In the Classic Timeline and ''Original Generation'', Shu arrives on the surface to assist Bian with the creation of the Divine Cruaders, but vanishes when Bian is killed by Federation forces and their allies. He sporadically appears throughout the Earth's occupation by the "[[Characters/SuperRobotWarsClassic Inspectors]]", assisting Masaki and his allies here and there, yet doesn't reveal his intentions on helping[[note]]In contrast from ''Alpha'', Shu's a bit more openly helpful (to Masaki's surprise and suspicion), assisting Londo Bell to defuse several high-risk situations. This is largely due to [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsAlpha Euzeth Gozzo]] eyeing on the Granzon; Shu himself isn't fond of his odds in regards to this, nor does he want to see Londo Bell defeated by the "[[Characters/SuperRobotWarsAlpha Aerogaters]]" before Euzeth is defeated[[/note]]. Once the otherworldly forces have been defeated, deciding to test out how strong his opponents are, Shu taps into Volkruss' power and turns the Granzon into the Neo Granzon, and attacks Federation forces. In all continuities, Shu is defeated, but at the brink of death, states he is pleased his enemies have the potency to destroy the Neo Granzon, leaving Masaki to ponder his dying words, while lamenting for his fallen foe.

Some time following his death, Shu is resurrected by the forces of Volkruss, [[AmnesiacHero but his revival offsets him without any memories]] in ''EX'' and ''Dark Prison''. However, [[ThePlan it's all going]] [[ThanatosGambit according to Shu's plan]]: [[ICannotSelfTerminate knowing he cannot kill himself]] in order to break free from Volkruss' influence, he used Masaki and the Federation to goad them into killing him. Since his resurrection annuls his physical and spiritual link to Volkruss, he is free to do what he wants, including destroying the dark god. He succeeds and by ''The Lord of Elemental'' Part 2, occasionally joins forces with Masaki, whom he is on good terms by this time.

Like Masaki, Shu manages to get himself the affections of Saphine and Princess Monica, though he doesn't return their affections. Despite not being a Herald of an Elemental Lord, Shu has a canary familiar called Chika. Unlike her master, Chika is greedy, crude, and not exactly bright.

* TheAce: Shu is feared for a very, ''very'' good reason. Besides having a genius-level intellect and having personally constructed the Granzon, Shu is a master schemer and a damn good pilot to boot. Then there's the Granzon itself, which is the single most powerful foe you will ever face, [[spoiler:and the most powerful single unit you'll acquire once he switches sides]]. It hits hard, hits far, it has a post-movement MAP attack which, unlike most such attacks, is also super-damaging, it and Shu have damage reduction bonuses up the wazoo so even the biggest attacks bounce off it like spitballs, oh, and it can dodge pretty decently too. And then, just in case you haven't had enough of your shit kicked in, it can evolve into [[SuperMode Neo Granzon]] to really start ruining your day. The only noticeable 'weakness' Shu has is his relatively expensive seishin, but you get the feeling that's only because [[WillfullyWeak Shu is giving his opponents a handicap]].
* AdaptationalHeroism: In ''Alpha'', alongside Bian and the Divine Crusaders, Shu remains firmly on the heroes' side throughout the Aerogator War, even becoming the game's BigGood (see below) towards the end. Subverted come ''Alpha Gaiden'', as Shu pulls a FaceHeelTurn to become the BigBad much like his ''Classic'' and ''[=OG=]'' incarnations. [[spoiler:And just like there, it's a BatmanGambit with two goals: one, get the heroes to realize how serious the gravity wave situation is and how they need to make sure ''everything'' gets protected (otherwise the [[BadFuture Black History]] will come to pass) and two, as always, get himself killed so he can escape Volkruss and make it look like he was trying his best to win and thus maintain the facade to fool the Volkruss Cult.]]
* AllAccordingToPlan: ''Everything'' is all according to Shu's plan. It doesn't matter what the enemy does; if Shu's on the field, he's already won.
* AnimationBump: The Granzon and Neo Granzon get an upgrade to their animated attacks in ''Dark Prison'' compared to the ''Second Original Generation''.
* AntiVillain: Present during ''The Lord of Elemental'' Part 1, then leading up to his death. Post-resurrection, he transitions into an AntiHero.
* BadassBoast: "I only take orders from me and me only."
* BadassBookworm: The biggest of them all in [=SRW=].
* BadassNormal: Despite being able to generally toss around anything in La Gias like ragdolls (including the Elemental Lords), the Granzon relies on little of La Gias' {{Magitek}}. In all continuities, Shu finishes building the Granzon on the surface with some help from the Divine Crusaders, and its GravityMaster abilities are derived from alien technology. However, this is {{Zigzagged|Trope}} by the fact that Shu ''did'' use some La Gias-based alchemy to enhance the Granzon.
** BadassAbnormal: The [[SuperMode Neo Granzon]], upon tapping into the dark power of Volkruss, though it's not as strong as a Full Possession-Elemental Lord. At the same time, the Neo Granzon is by no means directly tied to Volkruss - when the dark god unlocks the Neo Granzon, Shu has [[CurbStompBattle no trouble]] [[HoistByHisOwnPetard wiping the floor with it]] and still maintains the SuperMode in the future for his own use.
* BadPowersBadPeople: Black hole-based weaponry are treated as the equivalent of nuclear warheads in [=SRW=]. Averted after Shu resurrects.
* BeamSpam: (Neo) Granzon's "Worm Smasher"
* BerserkButton: He doesn't show it, but it's clear Shu doesn't want to be anyone's UnwittingPawn. The Cult of Volkruss [[spoiler:and the Guests in the ''Second Original Generation'']] find this out the hard way.
-->'''Shu''': Luozorl ... How dare a walking corpse humiliate me like this ? Unforgivable !
-->'''Luozorl''': It can't be. Nobody should be able to defy the will of god !
-->'''Shu''': I told you. I have no mercy for those who stand in my way, whether they be mortal ... or gods.
-->'''Luozorl''': Curse youuuuuuuuuuuu !
-->'''Shu''': Now then ... It's time for some payback ... with interests.
%%* BigBrotherMentor: To Prince Telius
* BigDamnHero: In ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RL8qiw1cFbo The Inspectors]]''
* BigGood: ''Coffin of the Final'' promotes Shu to this as TheCaptain of his own ship in absence of the Granzon, spearheading an investigation about a new foe. Back in ''Alpha'', he co-shares this role later in thte plot due to Bian being held captive by the Jupiter Empire and the Granzon being used as a check against the Astranagant. He also plays a critical role in helping stop the "[[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Third Impact]]", and almost single-handedly stopped the Aerogators by trapping their fleet in a pocket dimension (and would've succeeded were it not for Euzeth outfoxing him).
* TheBlacksmith: Built the Granzon by himself. In ''Original Generation'', repairing the machine after it is damaged in La Gias cost the Divine Crusaders about two-thirds of their budget, but that doesn't stop Bian from mounting his insurrection successfully with the remaining third. Shu goes on to design the power source of the Granzon, the "Anti-Matter Annihilation Engine", based off of the designs of the "Black Hole Engine".
* BokeAndTsukkomiRoutine: Shu is the tsukkomi to Chika's boke whenever Chika has to say something stupid.
* CallingYourAttacks: Even the all serious Shu isn't immune in pulling this off.
* ChestBlaster: (Neo) Granzon's "Distortion Break"
* CharacterDevelopment: Throughout the course of the series, he goes from an AntiVillain who will do anything for his own purposes due to his MoreThanMindControl state, [[IDieFree yet desires to die free]], into a man who actively helps out others, even fulfilling promises he makes after his resurrection.
* ChronicBackstabbingDisorder: In all continuities where he's present, he'll turn against the heroes sooner or later so he can die, thus be freed from Volkruss's control. Subverted post-resurrection as he will usually be counted as an ally.
* CoolSword: (Neo) Granzon's "Granworm Sword"
* ColdSniper: Not that he actually does or needs to, what with having the ability to generate black holes, but most of the Granzon's arsenal are ranged-based attacks with high accuracy ratings.
* CrazyPrepared: Listing his "accomplishments" will take a while
* CrutchCharacter: Only applies to his appearance in ''Original Generation Gaiden'' since he becomes the TrueFinalBoss of the game.
* CueTheRain: Whenever the Neo Granzon prepares to fire the "Shukutaihou", GrayRainOfDepression fills the background.
* DissonantSerenity: Nowhere is this more apparent than when the "[[SphereOfDestruction Shukutaihou]]" ("Degeneracy Cannon") is used in ''Dark Prison'' where Shu remains calm and methodical, even polite. He then unleashes the attack powerful enough ''to destroy the universe''.
* TheDreaded: Not simply InUniverse, but on a meta-level - [=SRW=] veterans will instantly recognize that whenever Shu shows up, something ''REALLY'' big and/or bad is going to happen.
** [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationAntagonists Kinaha Sokonko]] put it best when he saw [[spoiler: Granzon, Cybaster, Valsione, and Galilnagant appearing through the Cross Gate]].

* EleventhHourRanger
** In any games where he's playable, he's usually this; [[spoiler:in his ''EX'' scenario and ''Dark Prison'', he's the last to arrive and unlocks the Neo Granzon]].
** Subverted in ''Coffin of the End'' where he's available much earlier in the game.
* {{Expy}}: An [[StoryBreakerPower overpowered]] HumongousMecha with an ominous {{Leitmotif}} created by a genius mechanical designer/scientist with a SphereOfDestruction as its strongest attack; are we talking about the Neo Granzon or the [[Manga/HadesProjectZeorymer Zeorymer]]?
** Shu himself has many similarities to ''Anime/AuraBattlerDunbine'''s Schodt Weapon, appropriately enough, considering the entire Elemental Lords mythos was originally written because Banpresto couldn't get the rights to ''Dunbine'' in time for ''SRW2''.
* FormalCharactersUseKeigo: A knowledgeable researcher and scholar who uses Keigo in talking to either allies or enemies, even in thinking to himself.
* GeniusBruiser: The Granzon packs a lot of power and Shu carries the "[[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Genius]]"[[note]]+20 to Hit/Evade/Critical Hit Rates stats.[[/note]] pilot skill in most appearances.
* GoOutWithASmile: [[spoiler:Upon being defeated in ''Original Generation Gaiden''; in fact, the prologue to ''Dark Prison'' shows he's genuinely smiling for the first time]].
* GravityMaster: After installing the Anti-Matter Annihilation Engine in the Granzon
* HammyHerald: Chika, who says it the best.
-->'''Chika''': "Now you will learn to fear the power of [[GameBreaker Granzon the cheater]]!"
-->'''Shu''': "Chika... [[LampshadeHanging where did you even learn to talk like that]]?"
* HeroKiller: [[spoiler:Kills Masaki's foster father Zeoroot upon declaring his defection to the Cult of Volkruss. Later games, however, would change the meaning and the reason behind the act]].
* HybridPower: The Granzon (and particularly the Neo-Granzon) is a ''three-way'' hybrid of La Gias Magitek, Divine Crusader mech design and Zuvorg [[GravityMaster Gravity Manipulation]] technology.
* IWasJustPassingThrough: His normal excuse regarding why he pulls off any of his BigDamnHeroes moment, though the one time where he passes by Masaki while he was an amnesiac, he really ''is'' just passing through.
* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: The opening of ''Dark Prison''
* ImprobableAimingSkills: The targeting computer of the Granzon can target and lock onto a whopping '''65,536 individual targets''' on its own.
* IndyPloy: His plot in ''EX''/''Dark Prison'' has it twice over - first when he's resurrected free of Volkruss's control and runs the long con in the hopes of being able to kill Volkruss, then pitting his willpower against Volkruss's own in the hopes he can unlock the Neo Granzon.
* {{Irony}}: The most powerful, most terrifying, and most intelligent Elemental Lord has the weakest, cutest, dumbest, most useless familiar.
* LateArrivalSpoiler: His death, coming BackFromTheDead, and him teaming up with the Heralds of the Elemental Lords with no strings attached are already well known by long-time fans.
* {{Leitmotif}}: "Dark Prison"; [[spoiler:In ''Dark Prison'' and ''Moon Dwellers'', when the Neo Granzon is used, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ah_Q-THY6dA Dark Prison Version OG DP]]"]]
** BGMOverride: [[spoiler:In ''Dark Prison'', "Dark Prison Version OG DP" overrides even Volkruss' {{Leitmotif}}]]
* MrExposition: In ''The Moon Dwellers'', Shu provides some of the details to the Steel Dragons of what happened in La Gias, particularly the events of ''Coffin of the End.'' [[{{Foreshadowing}} It just so happens those details would become very relevant soon enough.]]
* MrFanservice: Averted, despite having a ShirtlessScene, the text-heavy nature of the game doesn't show much of his fanservice potential, so it's just up to your imagination, or just having to depend on [[Creator/TakehitoKoyasu his admittedly sexy voice.]]
* MightyGlacier: In contrast to the Cybuster's FragileSpeedster status, the Granzon has a low movement rate, but its weapons' base attack is higher.
* MyDeathIsJustTheBeginning: Subverted; Shu intends his death to be permanent, but his resurrection certainly works to his favor.
* NervesOfSteel: In every situation he's in, Shu always keeps his calm demeanor, [[TranquilFury even if he's angry]]. Do note he's often beset by powerful entities who want him dead (or whom he recently betrays); fortunately, he has access to the (Neo) Granzon.
* NotQuiteFlight: [[AllThereInTheManual According to the model kit's manual]], most of the Granzon's ability to fly involves modifying the direction of gravity than simply falling to wherever Shu wants to go. The thrusters are mostly there for the initial push and steering.
* OneManArmy: Although he is defeated (exactly what he wants), he does face the entirety of the Londo Bell in the Classic Timeline and ''Alpha Gaiden'' (with the rematch in the latter forcing his foes to call backup from the ''[[TimeyWimeyBall future]]'' for help), and the Steel Dragon Battle Group by himself in ''Original Generation Gaiden'', which according to [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsAlpha3 Selena Recital and Albharda]], is phenomenal.
** On a game-mechanics level, this makes him far more dangerous than most other bosses, because there aren't the usual mooks around for your units' to build up their Will-levels to access their most powerful weapons (and some defensive capabilities), while he has every attack available to him, including [[AreaOfEffect a few MAP attacks]], and a very powerful defensive field that cancels out minor damage (rendering most support attacks useless). Every one of his attacks can grievously hurt or outright kill even your upgraded units, which means you'll be spending SP on defensive skills rather than offensive or Will-building ones, and have we mentioned the MAP attacks that you cannot defend against? For added fun, depending on the game, he also has [[TheComputerIsACheatingBastard additional moves on his turn]] to nuke your fleet back into the stone age.
* PintSizedPowerhouse: (Neo) Granzon isn't that big compared to other robots throughout all continuities, but it still packs a ton of firepower compared to them due to the amount of tech at its disposal.
* PreAssKickingOneLiner: To quote lines he sometimes uses when Shu uses the "[[SphereOfDestruction Black Hole Cluster]]" attack.
--> "For a convergent micro black hole, a special release is needed. When the [[DivideByZero singularity is exposed, space-time itself begins to distort]]. You cannot escape the resulting gravitational collapse!"
* ThePromise: At the end of ''Dark Prison'', he promises Albharda if the Earth is in danger and he finally fixes the problems hounding La Gias, Shu will come back and fight for the Earth's survival. [[spoiler:In ''The Moon Dwellers'', he returns to the surface with Masaki, Lune and [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationAntagonists Amara Barton]] simply for scouting purposes; once he hears Albharda has died, he keeps his word, citing it's what Albharda would've wanted him to do]].
* PurpleIsPowerful: The color of the gravitional-based weapons the Granzon fires, the wormholes it passes through, and his clothes having plenty of it qualifies Shu for this trope. Oh, and his hair is also this color to compound that fact.
* RequiredPartyMember: From the moment he joins in ''Coffin of the End'', barring one route split and one scenario, he'll always be automatically deployed.
* TheReveal: [[spoiler:The reason why Shu assassinates Zeoroot is because the Zenosakis clan is cursed forever to be vessels of Volkruss. Shu takes the approach of killing Zeoroot to prevent another person from being in the same situation as he is in. Unfortunately, Presia is also carrying the curse, forcing Shu to commit the same deed again, but the canon ending of ''Revelation of Evil God'' leads to the Heralds successfully purging Persia of the curse, removing the need for Shu to kill her - to his relief]].
* ShootTheDog: Zigzagged; most of Shu's more {{Jerkass}} motivations can be chalked up to either Volkruss's influence (pre-resurrection) or doing questionable things because he sees the alternative as worse in the long run (and is usually willing to give people a chance if they offer a better solution).
* SidekickCreatureNuisance: Chika is this to him, and considering how familiars in ''Masou Kishin'' are an extension of their master's personality and quirks...
* SmugSuper
** Shu's a genius and he knows it. Perfectly done in ''The Inspectors'' when the Granzon's Black Hole Cluster is used.
--->'''[[Characters/SuperRobotWarsClassic Vigagi]]''': "Impossible... It should not be so powerful!"\\
'''Shu''': "I improved it myself. Of course it is."
** [[spoiler:In the ''Second Original Generation'', Shu humiliates [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsClassic Teniquette Zezenan]] by using black hole technology (through generating a naked singularity plane shift: a black hole without an event horizon), the latter thought impossible for humans to decipher and use]].
* ShirtlessScene: Before he visits Langran before it got destroyed, Saphine found him ''shirtless'' and obviously was attracted. Unfortunately, even the PSP version didn't turn it into an artwork.
* SlasherSmile: Anytime he gets that smile on his face, '''RUN'''. Actually, there's no point, [[ResistanceIsFutile because there's no escaping the (Neo) Granzon and its attacks]].
* SuperMode: Neo Granzon; in ''Dark Prison'', ''Coffin of the End'' and beyond, this becomes a game-play mechanic where Shu must have 130 Will before the Granzon can transform into it.
* TheLeader: Of his team in ''Dark Prison''; compounded by Shu having access to the "Leadership" pilot skill allowing him to do perform a "[[AttackPatternAlpha Maximum Break]]".
* TeenGenius: ''Several'' Ph.Ds at 22 years old
* ThrowingYourSwordAlwaysWorks: [[spoiler:Shu throws the Granworm Sword at Monica's Nols Ray when Luozorl holds her hostage, activates the Granzon's warp abilities, and sends the sword towards Luozorl, killing him]].
* TookALevelInKindness: Generally much nicer to people post-resurrection; justified because Volkruss can no longer influence him to do what he doesn't want.
* {{Troll}}
** The fact he never makes it clear about his affiliations/intentions, can do anything he wants, and spends most of his screentime putting on his "Trollface" while pulling this trope on Masaki makes Shu this. There's a good reason some players have dubbed him the "Troll Overlord".
** He trolls Masaki for fun, but those that try using him get trolled worst as part of his {{Revenge}} plan, with one example being the case with the [[spoiler:Guests and "[[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGeneration Gaia Sabers]]"]] in the ''Second Original Generation'', manipulating both parties to his amusement.
** Extends to Chika, too: in ''The Moon Dwellers'', Chika might talk during combat simply to annoy her master.
* TrueFinalBoss: Of [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWars3 3]], [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsAlpha Alpha Gaiden]], and the Dreamcast remake of [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsAlpha Alpha 1]], as well as the standard FinalBoss of [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGeneration OG Gaiden]]. Also inverted in [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWars4 4]], where he's only the final boss if the player takes the worst possible route (not completing the game fast enough to unlock him as a playable character, then choosing revenge on him over saving the world).
* UnwantedHarem: More like un-''needed'' harem!
* VillainProtagonist, HeroOfAnotherStory: His ''EX'' scenario and ''Dark Prison''
* WeirdnessMagnet: In the ''Second Original Generation'', [[spoiler:the Guests built one into the Granzon, as it's been attracting extraterrestrial/interdimensional invaders as a way to soften the Earth up for their impending invasion]].
* WhamLine: In ''Dark Prison'', [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationAntagonists Oleg Nazarov]] asks why he's keeping Selena, Albharda and [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationSteelDragonBattleGroup Yong Gebana]] along, since he knows he's a MagnificentBastard. Shu's reply?
--> '''Shu''': "They are my important allies."
* WillfullyWeak: Although the Granzon is an InUniverse powerhouse, by the time Shu returns to Earth from La Gias in ''the Second Original Generation'', he can transform the Granzon into the Neo Granzon anytime he wants to, yet doesn't because he treats it as a [[EleventhHourSuperpower trump card]], which he uses again during the FinalBoss of ''Dark Prison''. Plus, he can't initiate Maximum Break in the ''Second Original Generation'' since he doesn't have the pilot skill there compared to ''Dark Prison''. He also pulls off this trope in ''Moon Dwellers'' with Chika actually asking him why he's holding back (Neo) Granzon with Shu claiming that he didn't want to steal the spotlight from [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsJudgment Touya Shiun]].
* TheWorfEffect: The Neo Granzon is heavily damaged by ''Coffin of the End''. [[spoiler:While Shu is trying to escape the barrier surrounding The Kingdom of Langran, he is busy dealing with Amara, who is sent by Yotennai to assassinate him. Although Shu defeats her, he makes his escape, but the barrier is what damages the Neo Granzon]].

-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/TakeshiAono (Classic Timeline), Creator/BanjoGinga (Original Generation)

The High Priest of the Cult of Volkruss who is responsible for much of the conflict in La Gias.

* {{Archenemy}}: To Masaki [[spoiler:and Shu]]
* TheDragon: To Shu as he has a higher position in the cult than he does, [[spoiler:but, boy, does this spectacularly backfire on him]].
* EvilSorcerer: Aside from resurrecting Shu to let him continue his job in the cult, Luozorl can also summon animated golems to fight against the Elemental Lords and their allies.
* KarmicDeath: [[spoiler:Shu sacrifices him to ressurrect Volkruss so he can kill the god himself]].
* NoSell: [[AceCustom The Nagizzard]] can shift its body to the "Astral Plane", giving it NighInvulnerability to attacks. [[spoiler:Averted once Shu impales the Nagizzard with the Granzon's Granworm Sword with Luozorl's ability to shift planes is disabled]].
* OmnicidalManiac: Extremely devoted to ensure Volkruss brings about the end of the world.
* PointyEars: Luozorl is the only character to have them in ''Masou Kishin''; whether he's non-human or not is never discussed.
* TemptingFate: Believes Shu is still under Volkruss' control post-resurrection without giving a second thought that bringing him back might have annuled the link between the dark god and his vessel.
* TheUnreveal: It's never explained how Shu is no longer in Volkruss' control when Luozorl resurrects him.
* TheUnfought: While the Elemental Lords and their allies do get into a few tussles with him a few times ([[NoSell with predictable results]]), Shu and his party in ''EX'' and ''Dark Prison'' never get to fight him directly, either.

[[folder:Saphine "Zeora Volkruss" Grace]]
[[quoteright:225:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/b1710000.png]]
-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/RikaFukami

The younger sister of Elshine, Saphine is a follower of the Cult of Volkruss until she meets Shu.

* AceCustom: She pilots Wizoll and Wizoll Custom, robots that were made just for her,
* AffablyEvil: She may be antagonistic, but she usually has a polite, if condescending, tone to her enemies.
* BuxomBeautyStandard: She's fairly well-endowed, something several characters can't help but notice.
* ClingyJealousGirl: Despises anytime Monica clings onto Shu since Saphine wants to do that herself.
* BunnyEarsLawyer: She's regarded as being "eccentric" by her own men and colleagues due to her {{Stripperific}} outfit and sadomasochist tendencies, but is tolerated since she's competent at her job.
* CombatSadomasochist: And ''how'' - anything she says has sexual undertones, and she [[OrgasmicCombat orgasms and begs for more anytime she gets hit in combat]]. HilarityEnsues whenever she's hit with [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsDestiny Perfectio's despair wave]] in the ''Second Original Generation'' since it shouldn't give her pleasure.
-->'''Sanger''': "Come and face me, Scarlet Witch!"\\
'''Saphine''': "Ooh...those eyes...[[DoubleEntendre This big and hard...sword]]. I can't get enough!"
-->'''Sanger''': "What's with this woman?"
* CurtainsMatchTheWindow: Both her eyes and hair are the exact shade of red.
* DefectorFromDecadence: Often ends up defecting from Volkruss alongside Shu, often because she herself became delusional with their methods.
* {{Dominatrix}}: She has a domineering personality and enjoys making others submit to her. What's a better way to introduce a dominatrix villain than making the princess of Langram hostage, [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking then bind her with]] ''[[KinkyCuffs actual]]'' [[KinkyCuffs BDSM gear]]?!
-->'''Wendy''': What... What's up with these ropes? Good grief!
* DressedLikeADominatrix: She wears a skimpy and skintight leather ensemble that makes her look like a dominatrix.
%%* EnergyWeapon: Wizoll/Wizoll Custom's "Elemental Fusion"
* EvenEvilHasStandards: Even when still under Volkruss' influence, Saphine already made remarks that she didn't like Lubikka when she saw him hypnotize Tytti and pitting her against Ricardo.
* EvilRedhead: PlayedWith; Saphine's not "evil", but has heavy undertones of it. It's suggested that like Shu, Saphine is also influenced by Volkruss until its destruction.
* FieryRedhead: She's a redhead with a fierce and passionate personality, being very impulsive and giving her all to complete her task.
* FriendlyRivalry: She considers Monica her rival for Shu's affections, and while she tends to get jealous, she still ends up befriending Monica.
* HardDrinkingPartyGirl: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. She enjoys blowing time to drink with Rebecca and Gino, though she gets nowhere near as drunk as Rebecca does.
* MsFanservice: Not only is chest bouncing seen in her SuperMovePortraitAttack, but Saphine is arguably Banpresto's first example of {{Stripperific}}. In fact, her outfit appears to be little more than a few pieces of leather that barely covers her unmentionables.
* NightmareFetishist: To top it off, Saphine even thinks Perfectio is "quite spectacular" after he reveals the Fatum.
* NobleDemon: If she made promises, she will honor it, even when there's Volkruss' influence in her. That was how at times she could be an on-off ally to Masaki.
* NoblewomansLaugh: She has the trademark haughty "ohohoho" laugh that is associated with domineering women. She does it in several of her attacks.
* OrgasmicCombat: She tends to moan suggestively when hit or attacking, and one of her SuperMovePortraitAttack has her hugging herself while flushing with an ecstatic expression, implying she's having an actual orgasm.
* PrecisionFStrike: While resisting Volkruss' influence, Saphine for once wasn't using normal sadomasochistic quotes as she usually said, but instead blatantly said 'until Shu fucks her in the head', making Monica remark in surprise how such vulgar language could come out from her mouth.
* SmugSmiler: Almost always has a smug grin on her face.
* TooKinkyToTorture: She'll encourage people to torture her, so doing torture for interrogation won't work on her... but there's something worse for her: [[CoolAndUnusualPunishment Yang Long's sermon.]]
* UndyingLoyalty: Her true loyalty is to Shu; it's implied ThePowerOfLove is what allows her to break free from Volkruss' curse in ''Dark Prison'', cementing her HeelFaceTurn.
* WhipOfDominance: Fitting with her {{Dominatrix}} / Sadomasochist motif, Wizoll/Wizoll has a custom whip attack called "Rose Cutter". It's even implied she [[OrgasmicCombat gets turned on while using it]].

* BadassArmFold: The default pose his Solgady makes
* BadPowersGoodPeople: In ''Revelation of Evil God''; he still summons Volkruss {{Mook}}s on a daily basis, though to blast his enemies to smithereens.

* DivergentCharacterEvolution: Gaen inherits Ahmed's Solgady and inherits some of its old attacks (such as the "[[CoolSword Discutter]]"). In ''Pride of Justice'', it becomes his exclusive mecha with all its dark power and a BadassArmFold to match.

----
[[hardline]]
* ButtMonkey: Despite not suffering much BadassDecay post-HeelFaceTurn, whenever he tries to act cool, Elan will immediately get downplayed in some way by his allies or enemies.
* DarkIsNotEvil: Despite his choice of clothing and the [[AceCustom Zelvoid]] being clad in dark armor, Elan isn't evil; at his worst, he's a JerkAss.
* EvilCounterpart: To Masaki and the Cybuster; [[spoiler:subverted as ''Revelation of Evil God'' reveals the machine is an [[AncestralWeapon ancient]] mass-produced Elemental Machine used to defeat Volkruss for the first time. The Cybuster is based on its designs, but it's unknown to what extent because its mechanical designer Wendy isn't entirely sure how she created the Cybuster, as her EvilTwin Tuddy was possessing her during its construction]].
* HeelFaceTurn: The headlining character in one route for ''Pride of Justice'' fighting on Masaki's side and gaining his own cadre of {{Meido}} pilots fighting for his sake. [[spoiler:He even unlocks the [[SuperMode Full Possession]] for the Zelvoid]].
* {{Leitmotif}}: "Black Sword Saint" and "Zero Existence"

* MythologyGag: Take a closer look at each of the Zelvoid's forearms. This is most likely a reference to the "Arm of God" in ''Shin Masou Kishin: Panzer Warfare'', a supposed-far future {{Sequel}} to ''Masou Kishin''.
* OddFriendship: With Masaki post-''Pride of Justice'', to the point that Masaki doesn't take him seriously anymore when he tries to do a "I am better than you" speech.

!The Kadoam Hakam

The Kadoam Hakam are the royal caste of the giants, {{Physical God}}s tasked with the same objective: breed a strong race in order to overcome "The Trial". Although the Kadoam Hakam and the giants are of the same race and share the same goals, their methods differ as the former develop different technologies. All Kadoam Hakam share the following tropes:
----
[[hardline]]
* GoldAndWhiteAreDivine: They also manifest halos when they make use of their powers.
* LightIsNotGood: When they seek {{Revenge}} or go to bring forth destruction.
* TheMaker: The Kadoam Hakam give rise to great civilizations strong enough to overcome "The Trial".
* MindControl: They make use of this in order to keep their races in check, if necessary.
* OnlyMostlyDead: While the Kadoam Hakam can resurrect themselves, provided the right conditions, they can be KilledOffForReal, but only if their powers are negated.
* RedEyesTakeWarning: They possess four red slit-like eyes.
* RealityWarper: To some extend, they can manifest their thoughts into reality, creating lifeforms on the fly.
* RiddleForTheAges: There's no indication what exactly "The Trial" is.
* TakeAThirdOption: Rather than face "The Trial" head-on, the Kadoam Hakam and the giants took shelter in La Gias to survive it.

!!The Kadoam Hakam of La Gias

The first of the Kadoam Hakam encountered by the Heralds of the Elemental Lords and their allies, this entity is seen next to the Cross Gate beneath the Kingdom of Langran. In the past, the Kadoam Hakam of La Gias and the giants arrived in the subterranean world, uplifting the humans by giving them the technology to harness and utilize prana; at the same time, they made these ancient humans of La Gias their servants. Although these "gods" and the humans of La Gias lived peacefully, man grew tired of serving the giants, eventually rebelling against their masters. Through mass-producing the Zelvoid and initiating a SuicideAttack on them, the giants were destroyed, yet their lingering hate and resentment for the humans gave birth to the evil deities of La Gias. By combining these evil gods, the giants are collectively BackFromTheDead.

The following tropes apply to the Kadoam Hakam of La Gias:
----
[[hardline]]
* BigBad: Of ''Coffin of the End''
* BossRush: For the final scenario, the Kadoam Hakam of La Gias manifests the same evil three deities which plagued La Gias since the giants were defeated.
** DegradedBoss: Thankfully, the evil gods are not as strong as their prior appearances, though given the difficulty of the ''Masou Kishin'' game, they are anything but pushovers.
* EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep: This Kadoam Hakam has NoNameGiven; justified as it is referred to what it exactly is by its fellow giants.
* JustBetweenYouAndMe: {{Averted}}; when questioned about its motives, the Kadoam Hakam of La Gias doesn't explain any further regarding who it is, what it is and why it wishes to continue enslaving the humans.
* {{Leitmotif}}: "Concluder"
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Is it "Kadoam Hakam" or "Kadum Hakham"?

[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/xn_l.png]]
-> '''Voiced by:''' Misa Watanabe

The [[Characters/CompatiHeroSeries same character]] from ''The Great Battle'' series, XN-L is part of the Kadoam Hakam who brought forth a civilization to overcome "The Trial", specifically the setting where ''The Great Battle'' series takes place. Appearing in the final scenario of ''The Moon Dwellers'', XN-L emerges from the Cross Gate outside of Earth space after having been tortured by evil spirits for an unknown period of time. Though he was TheDragon of the "[[Characters/CompatiHeroSeries Dark Brain Cult]]" in ''The Great Battle'' installments, XN-L is {{Retooled}} in ''Original Generation'' as a slumbering Kadoam Hakam, attached on the ''Grandread Fenossa'' as a divine idol.

In an attempt to overcome "The Trial", XN-L wishes to prevent it altogether. To accomplish this, [[OmnicidalManiac he declares he will eradicate not only the Earthlings, but all humanoids within the universe]] no matter if they are good or not. XN-L reasons the collective negative emotions and thoughts in the universe are catalysts of "The Trial", which gave birth to entities like [[Characters/CompatiHeroSeries Dark Brain]] and [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsDestiny Perfectio]]. Even positive emotions and thoughts will bring forth said negativity, as both cannot exist without the other. Having re-purposed the ''Grandread Fenossa'', a battleship that once belonged to [[Characters/CompatiHeroSeries Warrior Roar]], XN-L uses it as his flagship to fight the Steel Dragon Battle Group.
----
[[hardline]]
* BigBad: Of ''The Moon Dwellers''
* {{Leitmotif}}: "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lesFKPSlBrQ The Last Fighter Twin]]," a BossRemix medley of the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tgdV5B8Gv8w title screen theme]] and [[Level1MusicRepresents first stage]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NXR6dMGLjyM theme]] of ''The Great Battle II: Last Fighter Twin''.
* MythologyGag
** His new name and the appearance of the remodeled ''Grandread Fenossa'' in ''The Moon Dwellers'' are references to the "XN-Geist", the evolved Gespenst PoweredArmor of [[Characters/CompatiHeroSeries Gilliam Yaeger]] from ''Hero Senki: Project Olympus''.
** "The Last Fighter Twin" is the original subtitle for ''The Great Battle II'' where XN-L made his debut.
* TakeAThirdOption: By annihilating humanity, XN-L can vanquish all negative aspects such that "The Trial" won't ever come to pass. When asked about what he does afterwards, he replies there will only be a WorldOfSilence.
* WellIntentionedExtremist: Destroying all humanoid lifeforms in the universe will allow XN-L to put a halt to all negativity that's capable of siring {{Eldritch Abomination}}s or allowing them to exist.
* YouDontLookLikeYou: In ''The Great Battle II'', XN-L looked smaller, sporting two blue eyes instead of four slit-like red eyes. Contrast his appearance as a magician in ''The Great Battle III'' to him as a warrior in ''The Moon Dwellers''.

!!Fuhryam

The deity whom the "[[Characters/SuperRobotWarsJudgment Fury]]" worship, Fuhryam is a Kadoam Hakam residing in the Granteed Dracodeus. It is unknown whether the Granteed is its body, merely heavily modified by cybernetics or a disembodied spirit living within the HumongousMecha. In ''The Moon Dwellers'', Fuhryam manifests itself by fighting alongside the Steel Dragon Battle Group. At the end of the game, it allows the Granteed Dracodeus' pilot [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsJudgment Touya Shiun]] to destroy the Cross Gate hovering over the Earth.
----
[[hardline]]

* [[PoweredByAForsakenChild Powered By A Goddess]]: The Granteed Dracodeus is powered by Fuhryam, granting it its SuperRobot capabilities.

* ShoutOut: Zamzeed's "Chou Shindou Ken" is a deliberate reference to the "[[Manga/FistOfTheNorthStar Hokuto Hyakuretsu Ken]]" due to its shared RapidFireFisticuffs animation, to wit in ''Alpha Gaiden'', Mio's combat quotes when using the attack is the same {{Kiai}} used by [[Manga/FistOfTheNorthStar Kenshiro]], including the use of his CatchPhrase ''[[YouAreAlreadyDead Omae wa mo shindeiru]]''.

* CatchPhrase: At least only in the original UsefulNotes/SuperFamicom version, he'll say "Allahu Akbar!" for his BattleCry, and "Inshallah" to express gratitude or leaving his fate to Allah.

* {{Bishounen}}: Excellen lampshade his good looks, comparing him to [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsAlpha Raidiese F. Branstein]].

* PeekABangs: [[spoiler:Justified - his right eye is cursed; the bangs prevent it from outsting him as Yotennai's follower]].

* KeiGo: The way he talks, to either allies or enemies. He uses this manner even when he is thinking to himself.

* ElementalPowers, FourElementEnsemble

* KansaiRegionalAccent: How in the hell a Shutedonian acquiring this accent is anyone's guess.
