History Characters / SaGaFrontier2

* ArcherArchetype: Pretty skilled with a bow, and rather abrasive at first. She joins with the Marksman role which boost significantly the damage she deals with Bow Arts (Bow and Hybrid Bow Arts damage +37%).

* ArcherArchetype: Professional, arrogant, rather cold and snarky, and very proefficient with the bow, with a starting score of 14, way above anyone in your party. During the first generation, Narcisse is by far your best bow user despite his pitiful weapon point regeneration, until he decides to retire and Labelle and Raymond show up to take his spot.

* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: One of the greatest swordsmen in the world, and among his other achievements, led an attack on a gang of pirates and their pet dragon.

* SuperPowerMeltdown: [[spoiler: Takes hold of the Firebrand in a rage after his son is killed and cuts down the assassin. His anima is consumed, leading him to transform into a dragon.]]

* ImpliedLoveInterest: For Wil. Somewhat unfortunately, because of the way [=SaGa=] handles the romance your best hint at their feelings for each other probably comes if [[spoiler:Cordelia is killed in the "Infiltrate! Alexei Gang" scenario]]... which then fouls up the canon by requiring Labelle to sub in as Wil's SecondLove and Rich's mother.

* Irony: Even though he eventually becomes the Fire Edelritter, in the stages you control him, he's actually more proficient with Stone magic.

* ManOnFire: Yikes. There's a reason Finney's heirs perform the Firebrand Ceremony as boys.

* BladeOnAStick: Her Spear growth is the second-fastest in the game (second only to Rich), and she starts with significant prowess with them as well.

* BladeOnAStick: Don't let some of his official artworks and starting equipment fool you: Rich is much, ''much'' better with a spear than with a sword. He has the highest growth rate with that weapon compared to every single other character in the game, and can make very good use of the Beast Lance if you got it.

* GlassCannon: Very powerful, yet very frail. He is unable to last long in a fight because of his rather low Health and, above all, desastrous Life points total which prevent him from regenerating his health often. On top of that, he comes equipped with the War God role, which enhances tremedously the damage he deals (+50%) at the cost of his Weapon and Spell points regeneration. He is, after all, an assassin: his goal is to take his target's life quickly, not engage in a grueling battle.

* BlackMage: Aside from his desastrous Rock growth (which, to add insult to the injury, is at level 0 when he joins), he is able to use all anima types with ease, already has his Water, Fire and Tone animas decently leveled up, and thus can turn into one of your best spellcaster. That being said, he has some serious competition with Ginny, Gustaf and, if trained, [[spoiler:Wil Knights]]. Notably, he is the best Tone spellcaster of the game, making him a good pick if you want to use Hymnal, Call Thunder, Heavenly Thunder and Sonic Poison. He is also a very good Archer, and is by far your best pick if you want to use Bow Hybrid Arts. He also has a decent Staff growth, though way behind the Knights' family.

* BlackMage: While he is gifted with the Spear, Kelvin is not a great fighter due to his desastrous Health points. He makes up for it by being very good with spells. His Support role enhances his allies' Arts damages by 12%.

!!Gustave XII
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/gustave_xii_concept_saga_frontier_2.png]]
The King of the Finney kingdom. Husband of Sophie, and father of Gustave XIII, Phillip, and Marie.

* AbusiveParents: As if the case with his eldest son wasn't enough, it's implied he turned cold against Philippe and Marie as well after he remarried and had another child. Philippe seemed to have been disinherited in the line for the throne (despite his Anima being completely fine). Marie was shuttled off in a political marriage to a known womanizer, and was such a bad husband she ended up ''divorcing him'' about as soon as her father died.
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: A whole lot of plot and bloodshed could have been avoided if Gustave XII's solution to his oldest son not having Anima hadn't been to banish both the kid ''and'' his mother as if they had committed some sort of high treason.

!!Sophie
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sophie_concept_saga_frontier_2.jpg]]
The Queen of the Finney kingdom, banished when she attempts to defend her son Gustave XIII after he fails the Firebrand Ceremony.

* GetAHoldOfYourselfMan: ''Slaps'' a teenaged Gustave (but also gives him a heartwarming pep talk) when the latter mopes about being worthless because of his lack of Anima.
* MamaBear: Willing to give up her entire kingdom for her son.

!!Philippe
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/philippe_saga_frontier_2.jpg]]
Gustave XIII's younger brother, who angrily blames him for tearing their family apart.

* AnAxeToGrind: Her starting offhand weapon is a Stone Axe, and she's fairly handy with it even if it isn't her preferred weapon.

* AnAxeToGrind: Tyler is your best Axe user for first generation, and is able to pack a punch with one.

* AnAxeToGrind: A very good axe user, and the only one available for generation 2.

* AnAxeToGrind: The best axe user of the game, along with Meythia.

* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: When a cult assassinates [[spoiler:his nephew and by proxy his brother]], Gustave sends soldiers into the Ruins of Hahn to [[KillEmAll exterminate them all]]. Kelvin tries to convince him out of it, to no avail.

* AbusiveParents: The case with his oldest son notwithstanding, it's implied he turned cold against Philippe and Marie as well after he remarried and had another child. Philippe seemed to have been disinherited in the line for the throne (despite his Anima being completely fine). Marie was shuttled off in a political marriage to a known womanizer, and was such a bad husband she ended up ''divorcing him'' about as soon as her father died.

* ArrangedMarriage: To Cantal. Doesn't work out (the fact that Cantal is all but stated outright to have been a womanizer might have something to do with this), and [[AllThereInTheManual she divorces him after her father dies]].

* NiceHat

* MassiveNumberedSiblings[=/=]ReallyGetsAround: ''UpToEleven.'' Has 82 children by various wives and mistresses that we ''know about''. He divides his land between his eighty known sons, effectively turning quite a large empire into a political non-entity after his death.

* ImpliedLoveInterest: For Wil. Somewhat unfortunately, because of the way SaGa handles the romance your best hint at their feelings for each other probably comes if [[spoiler:Cordelia is killed in the "Infiltrate! Alexei Gang" scenario]]... which then fouls up the canon by requiring Labelle to sub in as Wil's SecondLove and Rich's mother.

** BadassGrandpa: Plays this trope as literally in the late-game scenarios, coming out of retirement in his ''eighties'' to assist his teenaged granddaughter.

* RealityEnsues: Is fifteen years Wil's senior, being 30 in Wil's first scenario while Wil himself is only 15. By the time Wil himself is in his late twenties, Narcisse is well into his forties and has aged out of the adventuring game, serving instead as an adviser to Wil and later a mentor to Wil's son Rich.

* MissingMom: Isn't mentioned as Rich's mother - or at all, in fact - in Rich's scenarios. This is probably meant to provide for [[spoiler: his mother possibly being Labelle in case Cordelia dies halfway through Wil's storyline.]]

* BlackMage: She rivals Narcisse when she joins, which is no small feat, although she focuses more on the Wood, Rock and Water animas, whereas Narcisse's forte is with Rock and Fire. However, her growths are even worse than his.

* AbusiveParents: The case with his oldest son notwithstanding, it's implied he turned cold against Philippe and Marie as well after he remarried and had another child. Philippe seemed to have been disinherited in the line for the throne (despite his Anima being completely fine). Marie was shuttled off in a political marriage to a known womanizer that was much older than she, and was such a bad husband she ended up ''divorcing him'' about as soon as her father died.

* RealityEnsues: Is fifteen years Wil's senior, being 30 in Wil's first scenario while Wil himself is only 15. By the time Wil himself is in his late twenties, Narcisse is well into his forties and has aged out of the adventuring game, serving instead as an adviser to Wil and later Wil's son Rich.

* MassiveNumberedSiblings: She's Cantal's youngest daughter.
** MamasBabyPapasMaybe: ''Inverted.'' Cantal's been with so many women that it's not revealed in-story which one of them was Primiera's mother - particularly since she's raised by her [[PromotionToParent (step?)sister Nicholette]]. Some people suggest Primiera may in fact be Cantal's daughter with ''Marie.'' - which would make adventuring buddy Gustaf [[spoiler: aka Gustave XV, son of Philippe III, her nephew.]]

* NumberTwo: To Gustave as the latter builds his kingdom. It is he and his children [[spoiler: Who are also Gustave's (great)nephews through Marie]] that attempt to keep order in the realm after [[spoiler: Gustave's sudden death.]]

* InfantImmortality: Brutally and tragically averted.
