Badass Mustache and Badass Beard were merged into Manly Facial Hair. Examples that don't fit or are zero-context are removed. Having facial hair is not enough to qualify. To qualify for Manly Facial Hair, the facial hair must be associated with manliness in some way. Please read the trope description before re-adding to make sure the example qualifies.

-->'''Played by:''' Macarena García (young), Natalia Millán (adult)
The Lola Mendieta from 1943, right before she got recruited in the Ministry ten years later. But after the present Lola [[spoiler:dies]], Salvador recruits her to give a chance and put back what was set wrong.
For tropes related to her adult self, go [[Characters/TheMinistryOfTimeAntagonists here]].
----
* BerserkButton: She ''really'' hates being called a traitor.
* BigDamnHeroes: [[spoiler:When the patrol are about to get shot by "The Sons of Padilla", she kills the henchmen and frees them]].
* BrainyBrunette: Lola shows to be a very smart young woman, as evidenced by her ability to describe Salvador's entire office from memory, hours after leaving it, and also for her analytical ability.
* BreakTheCutie: Lola is subject to torture but she still resists it. Although, she doesn't know how many beats she is going to handle.
* OlderThanTheyLook: Like many other characters. She was born in 1920, but she is in her twenties when she was recruited.
* PhotographicMemory: When asked what she remembers from Salvador's office (which she had only been once into), she goes on for hours describing every little detail.
* TheMole: [[spoiler:Subverted in that the young Lola infiltrated "The Sons of Padilla" instead of betraying the Ministry as a secret mission planned by Salvador and everyone thought she was working for herself]].
* TheStarscream: Irene and Ernesto think that Lola escaped through a time door as an art dealer like her adult self did. [[spoiler:She went as a mole to "The Sons of Padilla" to investigate about the organisation and Marta]].
* TemporarySubstitute: Fills in for the absent Amelia in the main patrol for the second half of season 3.

* CharacterDeath: [[spoiler:Julián dies saving [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miguel_Hern%C3%A1ndez Miguel Hernández]] during the Battle of Teruel in 1937.]]
* CombatPragmatist: [[TaeKwonDoor Banging the door in your face]] or [[UseYourHead headbutting a K.O.]] for sure.
* ConsummateLiar: He is a brilliant one, being very convincing when making up something.
* DeadpanSnarker: His most distinctive trait. He has such a nice collection of deadpan quotes at least in every episode.
-->'''Julián:''' (after listening to a Nazi talking Spanish) "What a detail! [[LeaningOnTheFourthWall We need no subtitles for this one.]]"
* DeathSeeker: He had suicidal tendencies before joining the Ministry because of his guilt over the death of his wife. CharacterDevelopment comes to the rescue though the love for Maite is still there.
* GenreSavvy: Drops from time to time quotes of this kind. For instance, this one during the siege of Baler -- and yes, it actually turned out to be an ambush:
--> '''Julián:''' This is a textbook movie ambush.
* HurtingHero: He never quite gets over Maite's death.
* ImMrFuturePopCultureReference: Julián has seen a lot of popular films. From ''Franchise/{{Terminator}}'' to ''Franchise/IndianaJones'', from ''Film/GroundhogDay'' to ''Film/BackToTheFuture''. He loves to compare the situations of his missions to the plots of those films.
* LargeHam: Julián is calm and snarky. But he intentionally goes over the top depending on the age they are travelling or the situation to convince the gullible and religious people that some events are ''divine'' or ''magical'' with hilarious and effective results.
* TheMedic: Working as a 2015 paramedic saved some risky situations in centuries with poor healthy conditions and medicine. He uses his medical abilities during his absence and his travel to 1898 through the Cuban and Philippine Wars to feel useful after the tragic events of the season 1 finale.
* PsychicDreamsForEveryone: He dreams exactly with the reveal of Leiva's fake death, even watching the literal scene. This is never quite explained.

--->--''Alonso de Entrerríos''
A young woman from 1880 considered as ahead of her time and the only female student in the University of Barcelona in said period.
----
* BadassAdorable: Don´t let her fool you. This young woman with green innocent eyes can stand against important people and anyone that towers her with [[BreakThemByTalking her knowledge]].
* BrainyBrunette: She is the most cultivated member of the patrol, dominating both literature and historic themes. Her culture is useful for certain situations.
* BrainwashedAndCrazy: In episode 24, [[spoiler:she and Alonso are poisoned by the townsfolk with mandrake when she drank the town's water and made her paranoid as the people living there and joining their Satanic cult]].
* ChristmasCake: Brought up by Amelia's mother, who fears that nobody will want to marry her if she takes too long to find a husband. She also tells Amelia in no uncertain terms that [[IWantGrandkids she wants grandkids]].
* CuteBookworm: Everything she had learned, she learned it from the books as she tells her mother. She has knowledge of History and Literature up to 1880. Amusingly lampshaded later on by Pacino:
-->'''Pacino:''' You're like the ''[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enciclopedia_universal_ilustrada_europeo-americana Enciclopedia Espasa]]'', but in pretty.
* DamselInDistress: She has been hostage at least twice, although it's not her usual situation. Once when a German soldier had her at gunpoint, and the other when she offered herself to stop one of [[SerialKiller Morán's victims]].
* DudeMagnet: Her beauty and brains attract the attention of many men around her, but things rarely go very far [[spoiler:other than the Lope incident in the second episode]].
-->'''[[Creator/FranciscoDeGoya Goya]]:''' If I was 20 years younger, I would be hopelessly in love with you.
* TheHeart: She often acts as the trio's moral center, in contrast with Alonso's sense of duty and Julián or Pacino's pragmatism.
* MissExposition: She constantly explains things to her less well-read companions.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: She feels tremendously guilty for firing Enriqueta and indirectly turning her into the vicious child killer known as "The Vampiress of Raval". Her team and superiors cheer her up and by the end of the mission, she is no longer feeling guilty.
* NaiveNewcomer: Amelia is a woman ahead of her time but she's rather naïve, like when she was seduced by the womanizer Lope de Vega, prompting Julián to interfer.
* OlderThanTheyLook: She is from the end of the 19th century but she was recruited in the Ministry in her twenties.
* {{Omniglot}}: Aside from being a native Spanish and Catalonian speaker, she also speaks English and Italian fluently, a rarity in women of her time.
* TooKinkyToTorture: At the season 2 finale, she stands being electrocuted by king Philip II and his Inquisition.

----
* AccidentalMisnaming: To Pacino, whom he keeps calling "Chapino". When they meet again at the beginning of season 3, he called him "Chapino" in an affectionate manner.
* BadassMustache: A fine thick one. He also sported a [[GoateeGuy small goatee]] but he shaved it since his stay in the 21st century.
* BrainwashedAndCrazy: In episode 24, [[spoiler:he, along with Amelia, is brainwashed after drinking from the village's water poisoned with high doses of mandrake which made him paranoid and easily manipulated by the townsfolk]].
* TheBrute: Being a skilled swordsman and a veteran soldier, he is the most qualified fighter in the team while Amelia and Julián being the brains.
* ComicallyMissingThePoint: Due to his anachronistic nature, he doesn't understand many things his surroundings are saying, taking things too literally or confusing certain terms.
* DashingHispanic: An expert swordsman and soldier, wearing a BadassCape and a hat with a feather, that has a fine touch with the most beautiful women even though his heart belongs to his beloved Blanca ([[IdenticalStranger or Elena]]).
* DeliberateValuesDissonance: What?! Women in usually male dominated jobs and telling me what to do? Same sex marriage? The king does not choose who is in charge? Times have changed for bad! But hey, don't be rude to women, be chivalrous. Though he had some CharacterDevelopment as the series progressed such as respecting Amelia as a person.
* DisappearedDad: His "death" didn't let him meet his son and seeing him growing up.
* [[YeOldeButcheredeEnglishe El Viejo Español Masacrado]]: As being from a different century. This was [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] by himself in one episode where he states that someone could discover that he is from other time. Luckily for him, Julián, and later Pacino, give him a hand to try to speak the new Spanish, especially when he starts to date Elena.

-->'''Alonso:''' (to Julián when they first meet) "Sir, can I ask you a question? Who is that Alatriste everyone here mistakes me for?"
* FakingTheDead: A condition he had to accept to join the Ministry, since it's a secret organization saving him from a death sentence.
-->'''Ernesto:''' You will be dead to everyone, including your wife.
* FishOutOfTemporalWater: After the events of the Cervantes mission, which ended with the demise of an old soldier who recognized him, Alonso has to stay in the 21st century indefinitely and has to get used to the age and its advanced technology and culture.
* FriendlySniper: He's an elite marksman and learns quickly to use new weapons, which has already come in handy a few times.
* HiddenDepths: He likes arcades and ''Don Juan Tenorio'', really enjoys his reading of ''Literature/DonQuixote'' and can be a great actor when he works on it.
* LukeIAmYourFather: He meets a young man called [[NameIsTheSame Alonso de Entrerríos]] 17 years after his "death", who is actually the son he had with Blanca and never met.
* ThePigPen: Downplayed. He sports some of his time's ideas about health and hygiene, which is pointed out by other characters.
* PrinciplesZealot: As expected of a Spanish soldier of his time, he believes in duty and orders over almost everything else.
* OlderThanTheyLook: Alonso is in his forties but he comes from the 16th century.
* ReligiousBruiser: Again, according with his time. He always signs a cross before he enters a time door.
* TheStoic: Even when facing time changes and inesperate situations, he has a great poker face. It takes a lot to break it.

!!Jesús Méndez Pontón, aka "Pacino"
[[quoteright:350:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/pacinomdt.png]]
[[caption-width-right:350:''"It's not Chapino, it's Pacino. How many times do I have to say it?"'']]
->'''Played by:''' Hugo Silva
Julián's TemporarySubstitute in Amelia's team in season 2 and by season 3 he became a regular. He is a 1981 cop who stumbled into a time door while chasing a murderer.
----
* BadassMustache: Pacino sports a [[PornStache mustache in a 1970s fashion style]] [[SeventiesHair as well as the hair]], something that his actor Hugo Silva defines as anachronistic for the 1980s. He eventually shaves and cuts his hair to present a much more according look to the 21st century. In season 3, he regains the same moustache and the hair.
* ClearMyName: Upon arriving in the present, he is shocked to find that the police files blame him of the murders he was investigating, and that makes him even more determined to catch the killer.
* CowboyCop: He believes in the value of catching the bad guys over the duty of following the law.
* HeroicLineage: As stated by himself, he is a son and grandson of policemen.
* ImMrFuturePopCultureReference: Much like Julián, he loves to reference films and TV series (up to 1981) such as ''Film/{{Serpico}}'', ''Series/TheFugitive'' or ''Historias para No Dormir'', in front of his anachronical co-mates.
* InSeriesNickname: After watching Creator/AlPacino, whom he considers the best actor in the world, in ''Film/{{Serpico}}'' as the film inspired him to be a good cop that sometimes breaks the rules to do what is right. Alonso [[AccidentalMisnaming doesn't seem to get the hang of it]], though (see quote).
* PutOnABus: Per his own request, he is reassigned to the 1981 Ministry on Episode 16. It has been confirmed that he'll be back for season 3 to fulfill the absence of Julián [[spoiler:who dies in a mission in 1937]].
* ReallyGetsAround: Which often baffles his eventual roomie Alonso, but [[EatingTheEyeCandy he has an eye for Amelia]] and [[spoiler:the day before he leaves, he makes love with her]].
* ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight: [[spoiler:In episode 10, he travels to the 19th Century and kills Morán's father before he can kill his wife, changing history - even his own personal one]].
* TemporarySubstitute: For Julián in season 2 as the latter time travelled to the 19th century Cuba. He leaves to help his father to come through his divorce in Episode 16. By season 3, he became the male lead after [[spoiler:Julián's demise]].[[note]][[RealLifeWritesThePlot Rodolfo Sancho left after some contractual disagreements.]][[/note]]
* TotallyRadical: Most of his 1980s slang is completely outdated in 2016. {{Justified|Trope}} as he really is from the 1980s.

[[folder:Julián]]
!!Julián Martínez
[[quoteright:260:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/julin.png]]
->'''Played by:''' Rodolfo Sancho
A paramedic from 2015 Madrid traumatized with the death of his wife 3 years ago and comes in contact with the Ministry.
----
* BadassBeard: Rodolfo Sancho's signature.
* CharacterDeath: [[spoiler:Julián dies saving [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miguel_Hern%C3%A1ndez Miguel Hernández]] during the Battle of Teruel in 1937.]]
* CombatPragmatist: [[TaeKwonDoor Banging the door in your face]] or [[UseYourHead headbutting a K.O.]] for sure.
* ConsummateLiar: He is a brilliant one, being very convincing when making up something.
* DeadpanSnarker: His most distinctive trait. He has such a nice collection of deadpan quotes at least in every episode.
-->'''Julián:''' (after listening to a Nazi talking Spanish) "What a detail! [[LeaningOnTheFourthWall We need no subtitles for this one.]]"
* DeathSeeker: He had suicidal tendencies before joining the Ministry because of his guilt over the death of his wife. CharacterDevelopment comes to the rescue though the love for Maite is still there.
* GenreSavvy: Drops from time to time quotes of this kind. For instance, this one during the siege of Baler -- and yes, it actually turned out to be an ambush:
--> '''Julián:''' This is a textbook movie ambush.
* HurtingHero: He never quite gets over Maite's death.
* ImMrFuturePopCultureReference: Julián has seen a lot of popular films. From ''Franchise/{{Terminator}}'' to ''Franchise/IndianaJones'', from ''Film/GroundhogDay'' to ''Film/BackToTheFuture''. He loves to compare the situations of his missions to the plots of those films.
* LargeHam: Julián is calm and snarky. But he intentionally goes over the top depending on the age they are travelling or the situation to convince the gullible and religious people that some events are ''divine'' or ''magical'' with hilarious and effective results.
* TheMedic: Working as a 2015 paramedic saved some risky situations in centuries with poor healthy conditions and medicine. He uses his medical abilities during his absence and his travel to 1898 through the Cuban and Philippine Wars to feel useful after the tragic events of the season 1 finale.
* PsychicDreamsForEveryone: He dreams exactly with the reveal of Leiva's fake death, even watching the literal scene. This is never quite explained.
* StalkerWithACrush: Subverted. Julián spies, does pictures and sometimes phones his deceased wife [[TheLostLenore Maite through the Ministry's time doors]].

[[folder:Amelia]]
!!Amelia Folch
[[quoteright:260:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/amelia_folch.png]]
->'''Played by:''' Aura Garrido
-->''"She knows the entire History as if she had written it herself."''
--->--''Alonso de Entrerríos''
A young woman from 1880 considered as ahead of her time and the only female student in the University of Barcelona in said period.
----
* BadassAdorable: Don´t let her fool you. This young woman with green innocent eyes can stand against important people and anyone that towers her with [[BreakThemByTalking her knowledge]].
* BrainyBrunette: She is the most cultivated member of the patrol, dominating both literature and historic themes. Her culture is useful for certain situations.
* BrainwashedAndCrazy: In episode 24, [[spoiler:she and Alonso are poisoned by the townsfolk with mandrake when she drank the town's water and made her paranoid as the people living there and joining their Satanic cult]].
* ChristmasCake: Brought up by Amelia's mother, who fears that nobody will want to marry her if she takes too long to find a husband. She also tells Amelia in no uncertain terms that [[IWantGrandkids she wants grandkids]].
* CuteBookworm: Everything she had learned, she learned it from the books as she tells her mother. She has knowledge of History and Literature up to 1880. Amusingly lampshaded later on by Pacino:
-->'''Pacino:''' You're like the ''[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enciclopedia_universal_ilustrada_europeo-americana Enciclopedia Espasa]]'', but in pretty.
* DamselInDistress: She has been hostage at least twice, although it's not her usual situation. Once when a German soldier had her at gunpoint, and the other when she offered herself to stop one of [[SerialKiller Morán's victims]].
* DudeMagnet: Her beauty and brains attract the attention of many men around her, but things rarely go very far [[spoiler:other than the Lope incident in the second episode]].
-->'''[[Creator/FranciscoDeGoya Goya]]:''' If I was 20 years younger, I would be hopelessly in love with you.
* TheHeart: She often acts as the trio's moral center, in contrast with Alonso's sense of duty and Julián or Pacino's pragmatism.
* MissExposition: She constantly explains things to her less well-read companions.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: She feels tremendously guilty for firing Enriqueta and indirectly turning her into the vicious child killer known as "The Vampiress of Raval". Her team and superiors cheer her up and by the end of the mission, she is no longer feeling guilty.
* NaiveNewcomer: Amelia is a woman ahead of her time but she's rather naïve, like when she was seduced by the womanizer Lope de Vega, prompting Julián to interfer.
* OlderThanTheyLook: She is from the end of the 19th century but she was recruited in the Ministry in her twenties.
* {{Omniglot}}: Aside from being a native Spanish and Catalonian speaker, she also speaks English and Italian fluently, a rarity in women of her time.
* TooKinkyToTorture: At the season 2 finale, she stands being electrocuted by king Philip II and his Inquisition.

->'''Played by:''' Nacho Fresneda, Sergi Méndez (young)
A swashbuckler soldier from Seville that served in the Army of Flanders and was sentenced to death in 1569.
----
* AccidentalMisnaming: To Pacino, whom he keeps calling "Chapino". When they meet again at the beginning of season 3, he called him "Chapino" in an affectionate manner.
* BadassMustache: A fine thick one. He also sported a [[GoateeGuy small goatee]] but he shaved it since his stay in the 21st century.
* BrainwashedAndCrazy: In episode 24, [[spoiler:he, along with Amelia, is brainwashed after drinking from the village's water poisoned with high doses of mandrake which made him paranoid and easily manipulated by the townsfolk]].
* TheBrute: Being a skilled swordsman and a veteran soldier, he is the most qualified fighter in the team while Amelia and Julián being the brains.
* ComicallyMissingThePoint: Due to his anachronistic nature, he doesn't understand many things his surroundings are saying, taking things too literally or confusing certain terms.
* DashingHispanic: An expert swordsman and soldier, wearing a BadassCape and a hat with a feather, that has a fine touch with the most beautiful women even though his heart belongs to his beloved Blanca ([[IdenticalStranger or Elena]]).
* DeliberateValuesDissonance: What?! Women in usually male dominated jobs and telling me what to do? Same sex marriage? The king does not choose who is in charge? Times have changed for bad! But hey, don't be rude to women, be chivalrous. Though he had some CharacterDevelopment as the series progressed such as respecting Amelia as a person.
* DisappearedDad: His "death" didn't let him meet his son and seeing him growing up.
* [[YeOldeButcheredeEnglishe El Viejo Español Masacrado]]: As being from a different century. This was [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] by himself in one episode where he states that someone could discover that he is from other time. Luckily for him, Julián, and later Pacino, give him a hand to try to speak the new Spanish, especially when he starts to date Elena.
* {{Expy}}: Of [[Literature/{{Alatriste}} Diego Alatriste]]. This is naturally [[LampshadeHanging brought up]] by Julián many times.
-->'''Alonso:''' (to Julián when they first meet) "Sir, can I ask you a question? Who is that Alatriste everyone here mistakes me for?"
* FakingTheDead: A condition he had to accept to join the Ministry, since it's a secret organization saving him from a death sentence.
-->'''Ernesto:''' You will be dead to everyone, including your wife.
* FishOutOfTemporalWater: After the events of the Cervantes mission, which ended with the demise of an old soldier who recognized him, Alonso has to stay in the 21st century indefinitely and has to get used to the age and its advanced technology and culture.
* FriendlySniper: He's an elite marksman and learns quickly to use new weapons, which has already come in handy a few times.
* HiddenDepths: He likes arcades and ''Don Juan Tenorio'', really enjoys his reading of ''Literature/DonQuixote'' and can be a great actor when he works on it.
* LukeIAmYourFather: He meets a young man called [[NameIsTheSame Alonso de Entrerríos]] 17 years after his "death", who is actually the son he had with Blanca and never met.
* ThePigPen: Downplayed. He sports some of his time's ideas about health and hygiene, which is pointed out by other characters.
* PrinciplesZealot: As expected of a Spanish soldier of his time, he believes in duty and orders over almost everything else.
* OlderThanTheyLook: Alonso is in his forties but he comes from the 16th century.
* ReligiousBruiser: Again, according with his time. He always signs a cross before he enters a time door.
* TheStoic: Even when facing time changes and inesperate situations, he has a great poker face. It takes a lot to break it.
