History Characters / TalesofPhantasia

* WellIntentionedExtremist: Not very well done in the game, however. The OVA fixed it by making him much more sympathetic.

* FallenHero: [[spoiler:To quote the ''Tales'' wiki; he was ''relieved'' when he didn't have to use force to stop a war and began to organise relief efforts fomidgardr the citizens who were caught in the crossfire. When Dios fired a mana weapon, thus wiping it from the planet, his immediate reaction was to see if anything could be done to save the World Tree. Upon finding that it was too late, he immediately headed to Aselia... [[HumansAreBastards And then the plot happened]].]]

* GoldAndWhiteAreDivine / HeavenlyBlue: Healing arts are also known as Divine Power. Mint dresses in a white and gold dress, while the symbol that appears when she casts high level spells is bright blue.

* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: She is easily the kindest character in the roster.

* BareYourMidriff

* TheChick: A pretty archetypal example. She's highly feminine in direct contrast to the tomboyish Arche, and serves both as TheHeart and the designated healer of the group. She also ends up paired up with Cress, TheHero.

* AdaptationalBadass: A ''very'' [[DownplayedTrope downplayed]] example, but Mint tends to be better offensively in spinoffs than in her home game because the Pow Hammer spells actually cause damage, moving her offensive potential from "functionally nonexistent" to "mediocre".

%%* AllEncompassingMantle

* IncrediblyLamePun: His infamous "Boku wa zettai ni Daosu wo taosu!"[[labelnote:Translation]]I will definitely defeat Dhaos![[/labelnote]] The two PSX version translations translate this particular phrase as either "I will definitely repeat Dhaos! Dhaos." or "I will douse Dhaos!" Its thus become a running gag in crossovers too. UpToEleven in Twin Brave where one comical scenario has Cress eating a cursed Gel that makes him an utter HurricaneOfPuns that everyone gets sick of.

* NiceHat: A headband, technically, but it's still a signature piece of his outfit, and you can win it by beating him up in the ''VideoGame/TalesOfEternia'' cameo battle. In one skit, Chester even asks him if the headband is a trend amongst Albane School students.

* NiceHat: Mint's iconic nurse's cap, which was a gift from her mother. It sometimes shows up in other games as a shout out.

* NiceHat: A running gag in the PSX remake.

* NiceHat: Wears a nurse's hat like her descendents. It's not clear if it actually is the same hat or if the later Adenades just modeled theirs after Carol's.

* NiceHat: Her witch costumes have pretty snazzy hats.

* CoolHat: Some strange combination of a bush hat and a traditional wizard's hat. It's still pretty badass.

* {{Bishonen}}

* {{Bishonen}}: Oh so much.

[[folder:Introduced in ''Narikiri Dungeon'']]

* BecomingTheMask: [[spoiler:In Narikiri Dungeon X, Kururu was sent by Norn to watch over Mel and Dio. It ends up leaving her, and siding with them. In the original, Kururu was implied to have been a direct part of Norn, and never leaves her.]]
* TheMedic: In Narikiri Dungeon X, knows Bouncy Dance(? Translation?), which heals 150 hp, plus 10 multiplied by its level.This is a rather good spell, even late game.

* {{Expy}}: Pre-release discussions often compared her to [[VideoGame/TalesOfSymphoniaDawnOfTheNewWorld Emil]] by having similar haircuts, clad in blue clothings, desire to find out the truth about their BigBadFriend, and aerial combat-focused skillsets.

->Voiced by: Creator/TaekoKawata (JP, PS version), Mariko Suzuki (JP, Drama CD), Michiko Neya (JP, Fandom Vol. 1, PSP)

%%* SixthRanger

* UnevenHybrid: [[spoiler: Descended from a half-elf.]]

* [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair You Gotta Have Green Hair]]

* WhoWearsShortShorts: Black spandex short shorts

* BaldOfAwesome: Subverted. It's clear to everybody that he has long silver hair and there's nothing to suggest it's a wig, but Arche suggests it anyway.

* CoolHat: Given to her by her mom.

* SwordOfPlotAdvancement: Well, Staff Of Plot Advancement: the Unicorn Horn.

* DorkKnight: Has many of these moments.

%%* {{Biseinen}}

* ImprobableWeaponUser: He attacks by swatting at enemies with a book, AND one of those is a dirty magazine not suitable for children found in an old man's drawer. The dictionary and encyclopedia I can compromise, the thin little dirty magazine?

%%* BlackKnight

* BelatedBackstory-It wasn't until ''Narikiri Dungeon'' that his whole schtick was finally explained. His backstory was fully explored in the novel ''Katararezaru Rekishi'', which depicts him before he was forced to [[JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope jump off the deep end.]]

* NotSoDifferent: Cress realizes that they're both trying to achieve the same thing for their respective worlds and they see each other in the same way.

* RestoredMyFaithInHumanity: [[spoiler:According to the ''Tales'' wiki, his spirit comes to understand that he's NotSoDifferent from humans and that the darkness in both their hearts must not be expelled but, rather, controlled.]]
