5	!!Ryu Bateson
6	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bof2_ryu_5275.jpg]]
7
8	* ActionHero: The primary job his employer gives him after clearing Bow's name is "Go whup that giant demon way over there." His primary personal goal "whup that misguided religion and its evil patron" penultimately concludes with an explosive RoaringRampageOfRevenge straight out of the movies. Even a number of his animations in battle look like they were drawn in an action comic.
9	* BlessedWithSuck: Rand says he feels this way about Ryu and his clan, whose significant powers mean that fate will always weigh heavily upon them.
10	* CantDropTheHero: He can't be removed from the party.
11	* ChickMagnet: Katt, Nina, Bleu, the three harpy bosses, and Nimufu all comment on/fawn over him.
12	* TheChosenOne: He is the Fated Child. Barubary says as much in the Prologue.
13	* ContrastingSequelMainCharacter: Has a few healing spells to differentiate himself from Ryu 1. Also, whereas the previous Ryu was made aware of his dragonic heritage at the outset of his journey, Bateson’s isn’t implied until several hours in, and isn’t outright confirmed until late in the game.
14	* DespairEventHorizon: [[spoiler:Seeing hopelessly how Deathevan kills all his friends. Followed by a mandatory UnstoppableRage.]]
15	* ElementalPowers: Same arrangement as his predecessor. [[note]]Though thanks to a oversight, the three Dragon forms are actually NonElemental.[[/note]]
16	** AnIcePerson: Ice Puppy and Ice Dragon.
17	** PlayingWithFire: Fire Puppy and Fire Dragon.
18	** ShockAndAwe: Thunder Puppy and Thunder Dragon.
19	** NonElemental: Kaiser/G.Dgn.
20	* FateWorseThanDeath: Averted as it doesn't stick but this seems to be what Deathevan tried to do to Ryu at the beginning of their confrontation.
21	* GladiatorSubquest: Early on when he enters the coliseum and battles Katt.
22	* HalfHumanHybrid: Father's human, mother's dragon. As a result, his dragon transformations only last long enough to fire one breath attack, as he cannot maintain that form [[spoiler:except when he transforms irreversibly to seal the gate of Infinity in the bittersweet ending.]]
23	* HeroicBuild: Contrasting with his predecessor's fairly standard Bisheon design, he's quite muscular.
24	* HeroicMime: [[spoiler: He does, however, speak in the flashback where you're playing as his mother.]]
25	* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler:Permanently becomes a dragon like his mother in the bittersweet ending if you don't get [=TownShip=] flying.]]
26	* HeroesPreferSwords: Uses a sword in combat. While Sten and Jean can also equip a few swords, their main weapons are knives and rapiers, respectively.
27	* LastOfHisKind: Subverted. [[spoiler:Dologany, the city that falls halfway through the Infinity dungeon, is home to a lot of dragons.]]
28	* LoveTriangle: Implied, as both Nina and Katt are romantically attached to him.
29	* MadeOfIron: In battle, his defense and damage threshold is generally only surpassed by his hulking armadillo pal. Furthermore, his guts rating and special command causes him to shrug off lethal attacks more often than any other character and allows him to regenerate health endlessly simply by striking a pose. His final conflict is immediately preceded by having him NoSell numerous attacks from a PhysicalGod who not moments ago instantly and effortlessly slaughtered every one of his companions. Even his optional, unwinnable duel with Tiga practically requires the player to simply give up as Ryu's self-heal is rather easily able to nullify his adversary's damage output.
30	* AMinorKidroduction: The prologue.
31	* OrphansPlotTrinket: The Dragon Tear, left behind by his mother.
32	* PaperThinDisguise: He replaces Baba in the tournament, only needing to show the axe he got from him as proof. Once he does this, everyone calls him Baba [[note]] including the game itself [[/note]] and talks about him as if he is Baba. Despite Baba being a recurrent participant, and [[TheBigGuy a musclebound giant lumberjack]].
33	* PowerAtAPrice:
34	** Gameplay-wise, most of his dragon-powers completely drain his MP.
35	** [[spoiler:The test he must undergo to obtain the ultimate power Anfini finds him forced to choose one of his allies to sacrifice in exchange. [[SecretTestOfCharacter He elects to choose no one]] and succeeds.]]
36	* ThePowerOfFriendship: It's explicitly stated that [[spoiler:Infini, the final dragon spell,]] draws its power from the bonds between Ryu and his friends.
37	* RetGone: He is forgotten by everyone in his hometown of Gate. [[spoiler:You find out late in the game that Aruhamel erased him from their minds, along with his sister and father. This facilitated Habaruku's infiltration under the guise of Father Hulk.]]
38	* SecretTestOfCharacter: How he acquires his ultimate spell, Infinity/Anfini.
39	* TimeMaster: In a small scale. He naturally gains the ability to fast-forward the day/night cycle (though the original Japanese name translates to "Take a Rest" -- "Rest" in the English fan retranslation -- indicating that the party is simply waiting out the rest of the night/day).
40	[[/folder]]

42	[[folder:Bow]]
43	!! Bow (''Bosch Doggy'')
44	[[quoteright:217:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bobf21_6276-w350-h290_9098.jpg]]
45
46	* AllOrNothing: His special battle skill. If successful, it's a OneHitKill, but if not, it does only 1 point of damage.
47	* ArmCannon: Bow's significantly more imposing fusion form boasts one of these.
48	* AutomaticCrossbows: His main method of attacking, upgraded to GunsAkimbo in his Shaman form.
49	* CantCatchUp: He's locked out of the party for so long to remain in hiding, that when you ''do'' get him back, he might be behind in levels up to the double digits. Fortunately, the trope's subverted easily enough with a little LevelGrinding.
50	* ChivalrousPervert: Always seems to have something to say about the female characters you encounter.
51	* ClearMyName: What makes him unavailable for an early portion of the game.
52	* CombatMedic: He's the best healer in the game, and he can kick a fair amount of ass as well.
53	* ConvenientlyAnOrphan Ryu's becoming an orphan is the very first event shown in the game. Bow's past however, is never brought to light.
54	* HealingHands: Slightly better at it than Rand.
55	* HeterosexualLifePartners: With Ryu.
56	* LovableRogue: He can sometimes be a pain in the tail, especially when stealing is involved. He softened up during the 10 year timeskip and became a lot nicer, but he can still be this once in a while.
57	* AMinorKidroduction: Is introduced as a kid during the prologue.
58	* PunnyName: His English name is a succinct example, as "bow-wow" can refer to dog barking in addition to fitting his wielding of a crossbow.
59	* {{Sidekick}}: To Ryu.
60	[[/folder]]
61
62	[[folder:Rand]]
63	!! Rand Marks
64	[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/rand_marks1_7059.jpg]]
65
66	* AmbiguouslyGay: A note you can get when first meeting him is for him to call the clearly male Ryu "cute". He doesn't show too much attraction towards anybody outside of that event.
67	* BareFistedMonk: Uses his fists as weapons. Additionally, his equipment tends to be rather weak; most of his power comes from his base stats.
68	* BerserkButton: Threatening his mother Daisy is a sure way to enrage him. He leads the party in fighting the Church of Evrai when they abduct her.
69	* BeTheBall: His map ability lets him curl into a ball and roll across the map, avoiding random encounters.
70	* TheBigGuy: Artwork of the game always places Rand in the background because if he was in front, you wouldn't be able to see the rest of the cast.
71	* CombatMedic: Rand is well balanced between fighting strength and healing magic. Sometimes he uses both at once with his "Wake" skill, where he punches a fallen ally with a chance to revive them.
72	* DishingOutDirt: The only character with access to 8.0 (Quake), the game's "earth-based" spell.
73	* EmptyLevels: Inverted for Rand who uses near-worthless equipment and gains almost ALL of his combat strength through leveling. He will always be slow, but early grinding at Monster Island can turn Rand into TheJuggernaut. Played straight, however, for everyone but the secret character after about level 50.
74	* EncounterRepellant: His field ability can prevent random battles on the world map for as long as he's rolling. But if he bumps into anything (which is also the only way to ''stop''), a random battle is almost guaranteed.
75	* GameplayAndStorySegregation: In a certain scene late in the game, Rand displays physical strength miles above the combined efforts of the rest of his party. This despite his in-game strength stat being barely above the other fighters individually, if at all.
76	* GentleGiant: Very, very imposing, but he climbs on board the hero's band wagon without hesitation when he learns of Augus's plan for the coliseum duel.
77	* GoodOldFisticuffs: His attack animation consists of a few quick punches and an uppercut. His equipable weapons are all brass knuckles.
78	* HealingHands: Second only to Bow in this regard.
79	* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler:He stays behind to hold two closing walls and let the team proceed. His mother then comes and forcefully switches places with him.]]
80	* JackOfAllTrades: Rand's search for work probably made him this in the "traditional" sense, but he can also double as this in the combat sense. He is a good fighter with equal skill as a healer and even has a few attack spells on his list; when supplemented with spells from Barose, Rand becomes the closest thing to TheRedMage the party can have.
81	* MightyGlacier: Rand is all but incapable of throwing the first punch. However, his punch will hurt you more than yours will hurt him.
82	* MommasBoy: The one reason he left his home.
83	* PunnyName: ''Land'' Marks. Because he rolls. Get it?
84	* PowerFist: His method of attacking, and he can get other fist weapons.
85	* RollingAttack: Only used a couple times and never in an actual fight, but this is how Rand smashes through walls in the Grand Church.
86	* TeamDad: He says he sees himself as one during the Anfini test. Also alluded to in stating that he felt as though he had married off his own daughter following Tiga's courting of Katt.
87	* VitriolicBestBuds: Rand and Katt show clear signs of being this. Rand will harp on Katt's dim wit and she will respond by saying he's too big and always in the way. However, when the going gets tough for either one of them, the other is always the one in the group to show the most concern.
88	* WolverineClaws: These are his weapons of choice.
89	[[/folder]]

91	[[folder:Katt]]
92	!! Katt (''Rinpoo Chuan'')
93	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bf2katt2_2696.jpg]]
94
95	* ActionGirl: Katt starts the game working as a gladiator, her main solution to problems is to hit them with her staff, and she's one of the strongest physical fighters in the game.
96	* ACupAngst: Although she's fairly busty in her [[http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20080229032152/bof/images/thumb/4/48/KattBF2.jpg/1000px-KattBF2.jpg concept art]].
97	* AwesomeButImpractical: Katt adds three of the most powerful spells in the game to her spell list many levels before Nina does. However, without her shaman fusions (which only become available at the very end of the game), it takes a great amount of level grinding to even be able to cast the cheapest of the three a single time.
98	* BadassAdorable: She's cute, she's funny, and she can pulverize monsters several times bigger and heavier than her.
99	* BadassNormal: In her default form, probably the closest example of this out of all the characters through the whole series.
100	* BerserkButton: She really doesn't like getting harassed by lecherous men. She beats some politeness into Sten when they first meet, and she does the same to the diet wizard if she's the one to "persuade" him to return to Tunlan.
101	* BoisterousBruiser: Katt likes to joke and make fun of her enemies while she's beating the hell out of them. This also counts as one of her game skills, as Katt uses it to break Ryu's concentration during their initial battle and later can use it against normal enemies to make them ignore her party and attack her instead.
102	* CatGirl: Well, ''tiger'' girl.
103	* CuteBruiser: One of the party's heavy-hitters and the only character besides Ryu with the ability to counterattack.
104	* CuteMonsterGirl: Except for being covered in fur from the waist down, Katt, a female Woren, is a fairly standard cat girl. In contrast, Tiga, a male Woren, is a BeastMan with a tiger head.
105	** Just how anthropomorphic the Woren in general are varies. While the ones that join the player's party tend to be anthropomorphic animals regardless of gender (Rei from III is a good example) the ones that don't join your party tend to vary in their attractiveness.
106	%%* DanceBattler: The game literally describes her as this.
107	* TheDitz: Bow asks Ryu to take her along as he quickly realizes Katt isn't the sharpest knife in the box and if she's allowed to stay with him, she could destroy the house he was intending to fix. Rand even wonders if there's a way to get inside of Katt's head and rewire her brain to make her smarter.
108	** This is played with when you consider her spell casting abilities. She learns some of the most powerful spells very early in the game, but her maximum AP is way too low to actually cast any of these spells even once until late into the game (or after some serious level grinding).
109	* FieryRedhead: Obvious in her red hair and characteristic quick temper. Incidentally, Fireball is the first spell she "learns" and the Fire Shaman is generally the best compliment to her Devil Shaman fusion for further capitalization on her strength.
110	* FragileSpeedster: While she's one of the fastest and hardest-hitting characters in the game, her HP and defense stats tend to be low. Unlocking the Devil Shaman causes her to become even more powerful offensively, with Devil/Fire and her InfinityPlusOneSword allowing her to reach the cap on the Attack stat. Said combination also replaces her taunt with a ChargeAttack that deals up to triple normal damage.
111	* InnocentFanserviceGirl: Katt romps around ''bottomless'', with naught but her fur to preserve modesty.
112	* LastOfHerKind: She's never seen another of her kind. [[spoiler:Until Tiga's entrance, who tells her that there are very few of them spread all over the world.]]
113	** Woren are so rare that when Ryu and her arrive at the monster hunters's place, they ask Ryu to sell her to them.
114	* LightningBruiser: By using cooking to raise her low Stamina. She still won't have good HP, but in her Shamanized form, she ends up sporting drastically more physical defense than Ryu with the same stats, more than enough to make up for the difference in HP.
115	* GenkiGirl: She's very gung-ho and a happy-go-lucky person. Just don't make her angry or else...
116	* LoveTriangle: Tiga [[LoveAtFirstSight sets his eyes on her the moment she crosses the door]]. Later, Katt has to clear up the issues as she can't reciprocate the feeling. The reason for this is because, if you bring her to the right events, she's actually in love with Ryu.
117	* PintSizedPowerhouse: Katt is short, thin and flat chested, yet she is the strongest character in the game and her shamanized form cranks it up to eleven.
118	* RequiredPartyMember: Her ability to hit things is needed to enter [=CotLnd=] / Kott Fortress, and (rather [[GuideDangIt troublesomely]]) to proceed into the whale.
119	* RunningGag: In the Japanese version, constant mention of her small cup size. If Salvador is recruited as a Township's resident, Katt will ask him to give her a bigger chest when it's her turn to get a statue. (He doesn't.)
120	* {{Stripperiffic}}: Katt's outfit is made of fingerless gloves, toeless boots, a bra... And nothing else. Her shamanized form ditches the bra, replacing it with a ''tattoo'' painted around her torso (although in-game it looks more like a strapless leotard due to graphical limitations).
121	* VitriolicBestBuds: Rand and Katt show clear signs of being this. Rand will harp on Katt's dim wit and she will respond by saying he's too big and always in the way. However, when the going gets tough for either one of them, the other is always the one in the group to show the most concern.
122	* WomenAreWiser: Inverted, as Katt is the dumbest member of the party and gets called on it a few times. It's implied that her low intelligence is simply the result of her poor education, as she was raised to do nothing but fight.
123	* YourAnswerToEverything: Katt tries to fix everything using brute force, death threats and old fashioned violence. The funny part? ''It works''.
124	[[/folder]]
125
126	[[folder:Nina]]
127	!! Nina Windia
128	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ninafire2_8733.jpg]]
129
130	* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: She's exiled due to her black wings.
131	* ApocalypseMaiden: The people of Wyndia ''think'' she's this due to her black wings, which is why she was banished.
132	* TheCameo: Appears as a card in the ''Heroes and Heralds'' mode of ''[[VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom3 Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3]]''.
133	* DamselOutOfDistress: Is definitely this in comparison to other incarnations of Nina in the series, who in some cases rely on Ryu for saving so many times, other party members begin calling them a liability. This Nina, on the other hand, is the sort who even just out of training will barbecue a criminal organization and its demon-possessed boss almost to a crisp before Ryu lifts a finger.
134	* {{Determinator}}: Looking at her backstory, she arguably has the hardest life out of anyone in the main cast, but never once angsts about it or gives in to despair. Even [[spoiler:Nina the First]] tells her that her will is adamant. Also note that her special ability is called "Will" and in spite of her low defense scores, only Ryu gets back up after lethal attacks more often than she does.
135	* DuelBoss: Against the Guardian of the Wings [[spoiler:who ends up being the ghost of the first game's Nina, her ancestor]].
136	* EnergyBall: Her normal "physical" attack is a one-handed energy shot.
137	* FeatherFlechettes: Her attack animation becomes this when transformed via shamans.
138	* FreakinessShame: Her black wings resulted in her being outcast. When this gets revealed, she immediately gets some comforting from Katt.
139	* GameplayAndStorySegregation: The ordeal with the obese Queen of Tunlan made Nina consider "relying on her wings less and walking more". However, outside of her end-game fusion form, Nina is actually never shown to fly instead of walk.
140	* GlassCannon: She can deal a lot of damage with her offensive magic (unlike her counterpart in the original game, she's an offensive mage, not a support one), but can't take much in return. Like Katt, this can be fixed with cooking to turn her into a LightningBruiser, though raising her poor base Agility is also required.
141	** Also a case of LogicalWeakness, as WordOfGod states that Windians, like birds, have hollow bones to make flight easier.
142	* GlobalAirship: [[spoiler:No, she's not the airship this time. She's the one calling it.]]
143	* GoodWingsEvilWings: A perfect example of "Black Angel Wings" falling into the category DarkIsNotEvil.
144	* HalfHumanHybrid: [[spoiler:Part dragon way in the back, actually. The ghost of the first Nina explains that the black wings come from her decision to marry someone from outside the Windian race, implied to be the first Ryu. As a result, every now and then a royal is born with black wings, because of the small amount of dragon heritage in them.]]
145	* HeadTurningBeauty: This is noted by many PC’s and NPC’s alike. One NPC in particular at the magic school nominates her for WorldsMostBeautifulWoman.
146	* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler:Attempted to by turning into the Great Bird.]]
147	* InformedAbility: It is revealed in conversation during the Tunlan chapter that Nina plays piano. This is never used anywhere in the game. Flutes are much easier to carry around than pianos, after all.
148	* {{Irony}}: Windians think black wings are the sign of an ApocalypseMaiden. [[spoiler:They're actually a relic of having a ''hero'' in her ancestry]].
149	* LadyOfBlackMagic: Graceful, elegant, composed, and has the party's widest selection of damage-dealing spells? Check, check, check, and check. She's not an IceQueen by any stretch, but her past has made her a bit slow to open up her otherwise big heart.
150	* LoveTriangle: Both Nina and Katt are romantically attached to Ryu.
151	* ModestRoyalty: Although it's fuzzy whether she has a claim to the throne, [[spoiler:being next in line (especially after her sister's HeroicSacrifice) but ignored by her parents for her own safety]].
152	* PurpleIsTheNewBlack: It's a bit remarkable that no one ever just points out that her ill-fated "black wings"... aren't.
153	* RingOfPower: Her weapon set consists of rings.
154	* RoyalBlood: Though her parents ignore her existence, due to her wings [[spoiler:and one prediction stating that once a black-winged Windian is born in the royal family, misfortune would strike the country]].
155	* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: Again, it's tough to say if Nina truly counts as royalty after her exile. Nonetheless, Nina is never one to hold back a helping hand.
156	* WingedHumanoid: As with all Windians. Unfortunately, her wings are ''black'', and the prophecies and rumors involving a black-winged Windian have caused her no end of grief.
157	* WingsDoNothing: Played with. Flying enemies in Breath of Fire II are unaffected by Rand's earth-shaking magic attack; the same spell used against Nina by an enemy however, deals damage normally. However, she can use her wings well enough to [[BottomlessPitRescueService lift herself out of pits]].
158	** Her shamanized form also gives her StationaryWings during combat, though they flap very slightly while moving. She can no longer use them to fly out of pits, however.
159	[[/folder]]

161	[[folder:Sten]]
162	!! Sten Legacy
163	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sten_legacy_7063.jpg]]
164
165	* TheAtoner: Mixed with a huge dose of survivor's guilt.
166	* TheCasanova: He ''attempts'' to play this trope with Nina and Katt. Nina gets disturbed, and Katt gives him a savage off-screen beating. Much later, we discover he fits the trope perfectly among his people, and his ''princess'' loves him dearly.
167	* ConMan: You first meet him when he puts on a magic show and uses it to attempt to con a date out of Nina and/or Katt by "disappearing" Ryu as part of a magic trick.
168	* DuelBoss: Against Trubo. [[PointOfNoReturn Hope you have leveled him up well.]] Otherwise, you're [[LevelGrinding going to spend some time]] in the castle's basement.
169	* ExtendableArms: His field skill is to cross over chasms by extending his arms, though he stops being able to do so in his shamanized form.
170	* FakingTheDead: He did this with his fellow Highlanders; they believed he had died in a previous battle before his return. He can also weaponize this in combat, discouraging attacks from hitting him and counterattacking anything that decides to hit him anyways.
171	* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler:He appears to sacrifice his life after the defeat of Shupkay, [[UnexplainedRecovery but he turns out to be just fine]], something that he didn't want.]]
172	* HiddenDepths: In a way. The party, while generally being full of optimism, has several characters who've faced much hardship in their lives. These hardships are evident in the story very early on except for Sten (save for vague commentary from St. Eva priests) who shows a very different side of himself when his past finally comes up quite late in the game.
173	* JackOfAllStats: He's reasonably strong, but not as much as Ryu, Katt, or Rand. Ryu, Rand, and Jean all surpass him in defence. And he has a small pool of offensive magic, but not as much as Nina or [[spoiler: Bleu]], and nowhere near as much AP or Wisdom.
174	* PlayingPossum: His special skill is feigning being K.O.ed so that enemies ignore him when attacking.
175	* PlayingWithFire: Most of his spells are fire-based.
176	* ReportsOfMyDeathWereGreatlyExaggerated: Says this after returning to Highfort after a long time.
177	* RequiredPartyMember: For the quest in Highfort to get the Master's Flute. Not only are his extending limbs needed to get into the place, it's implied the Highlanders wouldn't let the party in unless Sten was with them.
178	* TheRival: His old war buddy Trubo (Turvoe).
179	* ShellShockedVeteran: [[spoiler:Sten's backstory is that he was the commander of Highfort during a war with another country, Gulfheim. It was so traumatizing for him that he took the decision of making a HeroicSacrifice as part of a very risky maneuver; he survived, but he faked his own death, then fled from his own country, in which he was reported as AWOL. He is so reluctant to face his past and see Trubo/Turvoe and his princess again that he refuses to return to Highfort until the party is required to go there in order to get the Master's Flute.]]
180	* StageMagician: This is how you meet him the first time around, although it was just his own way of working as a ConMan.
181	[[/folder]]
182
183	[[folder:Jean]]
184	!!Ekkal Hoppa de Pe Jean (''Tapeta'')
185	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/jeanbf2_9167.jpg]]
186
187	* AbortedArc: His subplot with Nimufu the witch. She just disappears after the impostor story is resolved.
188	* AsideGlance: Does this while [[EyebrowWaggle waggling his eyebrows]] and smiling before every physical attack.
189	* AwesomeButImpractical: Few things are more satisfying then seeing a score of 9's across the screen when you attack your enemies, which Jean's late-game transformed special ability "Chop" MIGHT do. In minor battles. After the enemies get two free turns of damaging your party while you wait for the very slow Jean to charge up and use it. (Unless you fed him a heap of Dinkers in which case, it'll still take one turn).
190	* BewitchedAmphibians: Introduced as a prince who was turned into a giant frog by a witch. The twist is, of course, that he was a frog person ''before'' he was cursed.
191	* BilingualBonus: The "Ekal" part on his name is written "Ekaru" in Japanese, which is an anagram of "Kaeru", Japanese for Frog.
192	* BrattyHalfPint: His sister Petape.
193	* ChefOfIron: Slightly subverted in that he's a good cook ''[[ForeignQueasine for his race only]]'', considering most of their meals consists of roaches, flies and worms. Still, he was such a well-known chef that a CookingDuel was set up to demonstrate he was the true prince.
194	* ContinuityNod: Appears as an NPC In ''VideoGame/BreathOfFireIII''.
195	* DiagonalCut: The ability of his Shaman form.
196	* EncounterRepellant: His Giant Frog form tones down the frequency of random battles on the world map.
197	* EverybodyKnewAlready: [[spoiler:The castle's self-destruct switch. Only his sister and the impostor believed it existed.]]
198	* EyebrowWaggle: Does this while smiling at the ''player'' when he makes a physical attack in his normal form, right before striking with his rapier. Presumably because the game technology of the time didn't allow for him to say "Watch me be awesome" when striking...
199	* FrenchJerk: Inverted. Jean is a French stereotype, up to the VisualPun of his being a frog, but he's also a thoroughly pleasant, good-natured individual.
200	* GratuitousFrench: ''Non, Non, Non!''
201	* MagikarpPower: He joins the party with poor stats and weak weapons, but can learn the Death spell and a truly awesome Shamanized form that allows him to use a ChargeAttack that has a chance of inflicting 999 damage to all enemies onscreen (which will [[OnehitKill one-shot]] almost anything that's not a boss). Additionally his best weapon ([[RareRandomDrop if you can manage to get it]]) is Holy-element, which is strong against Demon and Spirit-type monsters; since about 80-90% of the enemies in the VeryDefinitelyFinalDungeon are at least one of those two types, it makes him one of the better party members to bring along for it.
202	* ObfuscatingStupidity: He plays dumb only because he's very optimistic and easy-going.
203	* RequisiteRoyalRegalia: His Royal Ring is used as proof of being the true prince. Too bad the impostor also has one...
204	* RousseauWasRight: He thinks there are no truly evil persons, only weak ones that can easily fall into evil's temptation.
205	* RoyalBlood: He's the prince of [=SimaFort=].
206	* RoyalRapier: His main weapon.
207	* SpotTheImposter: The focus of his whole arc. Subverted in that the imposter [[PaperThinDisguise isn't particularly hard to spot]], but [[ApatheticCitizens neither do any of Jean's subjects particularly care]].
208	* StatusEffects: One of the party's two specialists, alongside Spar.
209	* SupremeChef: Double subverted. He's an excellent cook, but his preferred ingredients are roaches, flies, and worms, the kind of food only the Creeping Clan could love. His cooking makes Ryu sick, but it's due more to the ingredients rather than anything Jean did. While the judges pan Jean's entries in the cooking contest, [[https://lparchive.org/Breath-of-Fire-II/Update%2033/ it's heavily implied that they're actually delicious,]] and they reveal that the fake prince threatened to kill their families unless they declared him the winner.

211
212	[[folder:Spar]]
213	!! Spar (''Aspara Gus'')
214	[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bof2-spar21_9516.jpg]]
215
216	* AmbiguousGender: Aspara's gender is uncertain due to them being from the [[PlantPerson Grassman]] species. It doesn't help matters that they have a "mushroom girl" Shaman form that's considered female overall (they're capable of convincing a DirtyOldMan to help the party while transformed).
217	* CrutchCharacter: A mild example, as they can get their first form-changing fusion (which raise all of the fused character's stats by a large percentage) far earlier than any other character, since all they need is the Water Shaman to [[GenderBender turn into a cute mushroom girl]]. This makes them very strong in all categories and trades their GeoEffects for a more reliable [[StatusEffects sleep spell]], but eventually Aspara's weak stats and unimpressive weapons will cause the other characters to surpass them.
218	* GeoEffects: The effect of the Nature skill depends on the environment during the battle: While a forest background calls forth trees, a desert one will have exploding cacti.
219	* GreenThumb: Their special skill allows them to, among others, [[WhenTreesAttack command trees to stomp on the enemies]] or flowers to bloom and restore the party.
220	* LateCharacterSyndrome: Spar is the last party member to join, and is a low-leveled CrutchCharacter. The game forces you into using them to bypass forests and talk to the Wise Trees.
221	* OurDragonsAreDifferent: Their Sana/Shin fusion is a anthropomorphic [[VisualPun snapdragon]]. Sadly, said fusion still uses their normal GeoEffects special ability.
222	* PlantPerson: Their species.
223	* PunnyName: Check their full name. Just don't [[FacePalm hit your face too hard]].
224	* Really700YearsOld: Their actual age is 111.
225	** OlderThanTheyLook: 111 in Grassman years equates to about 16 in human years, which is about how old they look.
226	* RequiredPartyMember: For the quest to save Gandaroof's memories. They're the only one who can communicate with Gandaroof, not to mention lead the party through the heavy forests to reach him.
227	* SecretTestOfCharacter: They ''willingly'' let the carnival capture them. They did it to see if anyone would be brave and kind enough to free them. Such heroes were the only people Aspara could trust with trying to restore Gandaroof's memories.
228	* TheSpock: They are only capable of thinking logically, but starts discovering new feelings and emotions near the end of the game.
229	* StatusBuff: Team expert on the subject.
230	* TheStoic: Justified, as their species cannot show emotions.
231	* WeaponizedHeadgear: Their "mushroom girl" form attack animation has her attacking by throwing her mushroom-cap hat.
232	[[/folder]]
233
234	[[folder:Secret Character]]
235	!! Bleu ("Deis")
236	[[quoteright:306:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bof2-bleu-w350-h450_9722.jpg]]
237
238	Reprises her role in the first game as a powerful BlackMage... ''if'' you can [[GuideDangIt manage to find her]], that is.
239
240	See [[Characters/BreathOfFireI here]] for tropes pertaining to her.
241	[[/folder]]
242
243	!!Supporting Characters
244
245	[[folder:The Shamans]]
246	* ElementalPowers: Each Shaman represents an element, which influences which party members they can fuse successfully with.
247	** PlayingWithFire: Sana is the Fire Shaman
248	** MakingASplash: Seso is the Water Shaman
249	** BlowYouAway: Spoo is the Wind Shaman
250	** DishingOutDirt: Solo is the Earth Shaman
251	** LightIsGood: Seny is the Holy Shaman
252	** DarkIsNotEvil: Shin is the Devil Shaman
253	* FusionDance: They have the ability to fuse with other characters (except Ryu [[spoiler:and Bleu]]) to increase their stats or even transform them completely.
254	* MsFanservice: Almost all of them fall under this, being [[{{Stripperiffic}} scantily-clad]] attractive women.
255	** FanDisservice: While no less scantily-clad than the other Shamans, Solo is a {{Gonk}} instead.
256	* ShowSomeLeg: Sana has used her charms to entice ''several'' people over to her granny's fusion lab. Her latest conquest is Ryu, but that works... [[GoneHorriblyRight a bit too well]].
257	* {{Stripperiffic}}: All of them wear strips of cloth like a bikini, some jewelry, and nothing else.
258	* TakenForGranite: Seso is found as a statue in the Witch's Tower. Once Nimufu is defeated, Seso is freed.
259	[[/folder]]
260
261	[[folder:Baba]]
262	!! Baba (''Babadel/Babaderu'')
263
264	* TheBigGuy: He's big, slow, and can hit quite hard.
265	* BlindIdiotTranslation: According to the end credits, he's a "[[JapaneseRanguage Ramberjack]]".
266	* GentleGiant: He really only fights Ryu to defend his spot in the tournament.
267	* IconicItem: His axe, in-universe. Apparently, it's all Ryu needs to pose as him, despite the [[PaperThinDisguise clear difference in build and appearance]].
268	* MightyLumberjack: He's powerful and carries an axe to chop trees, other tournament competitors, and anyone who gets in the way of his competing.
269	[[/folder]]
270
271	[[folder:Patty Smith]]
272	!! Patty Smith
273
274	* EverybodyKnewAlready: [[spoiler:Arguably, that she's Ryu's younger sister Yua.]]
275	%%* GenkiGirl
276	* HalfHumanHybrid: [[spoiler:She's half-dragon, just like her brother.]]
277	* IWantMyMommy: [[spoiler:She is pretty good at running away and even sasses Trout while held in his basement, but when she faces certain death at Habaruku's hands, she breaks down and calls for her brother.]]
278	* PhantomThief: [[ThePiratesWhoDontDoAnything Not very effective as one though...]]
279	* {{Stripperific}}: Her outfit consists of a dominatrix corset/leotard that rides up her ass like a thong. Not even her overworld sprite is able to hide it!
280	* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: [[spoiler:Right after her last major story appearance in the opening of Infinity, she's never heard of again. This became [[AvertedTrope averted]] in the GBA port as she appears in the ending (not the cast roll call, either).]]
281	* WingedHumanoid: She has dark, bat-like wings. [[spoiler:Except not really. Those are ''dragon'' wings, which hint at her heritage.]]
282	[[/folder]]
283
284	[[folder:Nimufu]]
285	!! Nimufu (''Nimpho Mani'')
286
287	* CuteWitch: Her entire looks, but it doesn't help her case when she's also a case of being a WickedWitch.
288	* PunnyName: Her full name is a pun on the word "[[http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/nymphomania nymphomania]]", which is an "excess of sexual behavior or desire in women", which can explain why she is a cute and sexy witch. No wonder her name got changed via {{bowdleri\|se}}zation.
289	* TakenForGranite: Her magic has made many people (including the shaman Seso) fall under this type by the time the party arrives at her tower.
290	* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: Where she ran off to after the [=Simafort=] and [=WildCat=] incidents remains a mystery.
291	[[/folder]]
292
293	[[folder:Tiga]]
294	!! Tiga (''Tigger Lee'')
295
296	* CockFight: Insists on one when his -then- love interest, Katt, recoils behind the hero in response to Tiga's proposal.
297	* DefiantToTheEnd: [[spoiler:Even when completely outclassed in power against Habaruku, he doesn't stop trying to save Claris until the bitter end.]]
298	* HopelessBossFight: The DuelBoss battle between him and Ryu is unwinnable.
299	* TheInfiltration: Claris infiltrates Evrai posing as a believer. The party and Tiga later do the same.
300	* LaResistance: Tiga is the leader of the group trying to bring down the Church of St. Eva.
301	* LoveAtFirstSight: Is instantly smitten with Katt/Rinpoo the moment he lays eyes on her. It doesn't pan out for him, though -- Katt is romantically interested in Ryu, and [[spoiler:Tiga eventually realizes he's truly in love with Claris.]]
302	%%* LoveHurts
303	* LoveInterests: Katt at first. [[spoiler:Then later, he realizes Claris is the one he truly loves. Unfortunately, [[FromBadToWorse things went sour afterwards. Very sour.]]]]
304	* NonstandardCharacterDesign: Unlike other Woren, he is a humanoid tiger instead of a human with tiger features.
305	* ShoutOutThemeNaming: All characters related to the resistance are named after {{Creator/Disney}} characters. Yes, Tiga's real name is a reference to ''that'' [[Franchise/WinnieThePooh Tigger]]. It may also be a ShoutOut to the folk song Stagger Lee.
306	* TogetherInDeath: [[spoiler:He and Claris are vaporized together by Habaruku's lightning bolt.]]
307	* WorfEffect: [[spoiler:Despite being stronger than Ryu (at least before Ryu obtains his Grand Dragon form), Tiga is easily killed by Habaruku.]]
308	[[/folder]]
309
310	[[folder:Father Ganer]]
311	!! Father Ganer
312
313	* BackForTheFinale: Is unseen during most of the game, [[spoiler:as he was captured by the church and used as a LivingBattery.]]
314	* BadassPreacher: [[spoiler:A late-game flashback shows him smiting demons while Valerie sacrifices herself to seal off Infinity. The man either never got, or rejected, the memo that he was supposed to be playing for ''their'' team.]]
315	* CoolOldGuy: Your party members comment on it if you speak to them after rescuing him.
316	* DisappearedDad: [[spoiler:Thank Aruhamel and Habaruku for that.]]
317	* LoveAtFirstSight: Towards Ryu's mother Valerie. The feeling was mutual.
318	* PapaWolf: The Gunhead that Ryu "fights" at the game's start was a threat to both Ryu and Yua. Father Ganer had none of that.
319	* PoweredByAForsakenChild: [[spoiler:He serves as the PowerSource in two occasions: unwillingly as prisoner in Evrai, and willingly to power up [=TownShip=].]]
320	* SoProudOfYou: [[spoiler:During the best ending, while taking Ryu's place in becoming the new seal on the Underworld.]]
321	* TheDogBitesBack: Spent ''years'' [[spoiler:being used by Deathevan as a component in the machine under Evrai to send power to the demon. In the best ending, he powers [=TownShip=] and uses it in a ColonyDrop on the entrance to the Underworld, sealing Deathevan away again]].
322	* VideoGameCrueltyPotential / VideoGameCaringPotential: [[spoiler:During the attack on Evrai, you can either kill him or save him. Taking the latter choice is necessary for the best ending.]]
323	[[/folder]]
324
325	[[folder:Ray Bradoc]]
326	!! Ray Bradoc
327
328	* AntiVillain: He's rather helpful during the adventure, helping the people of Capitan being one of his most noble actions. [[spoiler:When Habaruku orders him to fight against Ryu, he decides to [[HeroicSacrifice sacrifice himself]] in order to teach Ryu to do the Great Dragon / Kaiser Dragon transformation.]]
329	* BadassPreacher: Specially during the Capitan Town incident.
330	* BadassLongcoat: He wears a longcoat, and he's also powerful.
331	* HealingHands: He uses healing spells as a priest, and can teach one of two possible spells to a party member after the Capitan incident.
332	* TheReveal: [[spoiler:Turns out he's a member of the Dragon clan, as well.]]
333	* StealthMentor: [[spoiler:He dies just for Ryu to learn the Kaiser Dragon transformation.]]
334	[[/folder]]
335
336	[[folder:Valerie [=McCarran=]]]
337	!! Valerie [=McCarran=]
338
339	* AttackOfThe50FootWhatever: Her dragon form is downright enormous.
340	* BarrierMaiden: Turns into a dragon to protect the seal on Infinity.
341	* ChekhovsGunman: [[spoiler:That dragon on that mountain behind Gate? One guess on ''her'' identity...]]
342	** ConvenientComa: [[spoiler:She's left in a deep slumber until after Habaruku's attempt to kill her.]]
343	* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler:Before the game events, she turned into a dragon to seal the entrance of Infinity. Later, she sacrifices herself permanently to reopen the gate so Ryu and the others to confront Deathevan.]]
344	* LoveAtFirstSight: For Ryu's father.
345	* MamaBear: [[spoiler:She finally awakens in force once Habaruku threatens Patty/Yua.]]
346	* WingedHumanoid: A side effect of her race's continued contact with [[spoiler:Deathevan's]] aura.
347	[[/folder]]
348
349	!!Antagonists
350
351	[[folder:Deathevan]]
352	!! Deathevan / Father Evans (''St. Eva'') / God
353
354	* AxCrazy: [[spoiler:After Ryu hits him, it all goes downhill for him.]]
355	* AsLongAsThereIsEvil: [[spoiler:Deathevan feeds off human darkness. Also, Ganer explicitly states in the good ending that, if Ryu can eliminate hate and despair in the world, he'd never be able to return.]]
356	* BigBad: Even when either Habaruku or Barubary are pulling the strings, he's in this position.
357	* BreakThemByTalking: Will give everyone you bring to the last fight a very pointed lecture about their "sins". [[spoiler:Except Deis, who he rants at for helping to kill his mother Myria in the first game.]]
358	* ContinuityNod: [[spoiler:He's the spawn of Tyr (Myria) from the first game.]]
359	* CrystalDragonJesus: He poses as one as god of the Church of St. Eva, but [[PathOfInspiration it's all a facade]].
360	* DarkIsEvil: His true form is a ugly EldritchAbomination, and he wishes to kill everyone in the world.
361	* EarlyBirdCameo: He shows up in a few instances prior to the climax of the game, represented as a gigantic eye. He also shows up in silhouette in the Bad Ending.
362	* EldritchAbomination: His true TRUE form. Making [[spoiler:mommy]] so proud!
363	* EnemyToAllLivingThings: Deathevan's presence causes the forests surrounding [[spoiler:Gate]] to wither and die.
364	* EvilCannotComprehendGood: Deathevan considers death the ultimate desire of all life and his great gift to the world, and cannot understand why anything would choose to defy him.
365	* EvilIsDeathlyCold: His Ice Breath attack, not to mention his whole [[spoiler:freezing the party schtick]].
366	* EvilOldFolks: His human guise is an old man, but his true nature as a demon shines through regardless.
367	* GodOfEvil: ''VideoGame/BreathOfFireII'' follows a polytheistic universe, and so he is one of many gods rather than a singular god.
368	* GodsNeedPrayerBadly: Essentially says so in the first scene of the game. [[spoiler:He doesn't actually need worship, but it gives him power that he can use to break out of his prison sooner.]]
369	* HopelessBossFight: Subverted, it's only impossible to defeat him if you didn't learn Anfini.
370	* LightIsNotGood: He's a horrifically evil demon, but invokes this trope when he masquerades as [[spoiler:Evans/St.Eva]].
371	** Not to mention his Bone Laser attack is a huge beam of light.
372	* MadnessMantra: [[spoiler:Starts screaming "Kill... kill... kill..." after (a very pissed off) Ryu injuries him.]]
373	* NotQuiteDead: [[spoiler:As Ryu later discovers, Deathevan only lost his physical form after his final defeat. Ryu decides to perform an HeroicSacrifice to take his mother's place as the guardian of the mountain... Or if you get the best ending, your father will take your place and crush the whole mountain with the Township!]]
374	* OneWingedAngel: He transforms into a horrifying demonic form for the final boss fight.
375	* StrawNihilist: "I will bless the world... with desperation. All living things will look up to me and feel happiness as they accept death."
376	* VillainousBreakdown: He does ''not'' react well when [[spoiler:Ryu breaks free of his sealing power, runs up to him and [[CutscenePowerToTheMax slashes him across his face]], cutting his left eye in an UnstoppableRage.]]
377	-->'''Deathevan:''' [[spoiler:I can't believe… that I would lose to a crumb like this… It's impossible! That I… God…! God… God cannot die!]]
378	[[/folder]]
379
380	[[folder:Barubary]]
381	!! Barubary (''Barbaroi'')
382
383	* CoDragons: Along with Habaruku. Unlike Habaruku, who's arguably the face of the Church of Evrai, he's behind the scenes, and he's one of the catalysts for both Ryu and Bow's start of their adventure.
384	* DuelBoss: He offers Ryu to fight one-on-one midway through his BossBattle. It's up to the player if he accepts or not. If you win he gives a [[GuideDangIt vague hint to where the ultimate armor accessory is]].
385	* GlassCannon: Compared to Deathevan, Barubary's not quite as durable, but he's got massive attack damage and speed, making him arguably even more difficult than the actual FinalBoss.
386	* HopelessBossFight: Right in the prologue.
387	* NobleDemon: Probably the only demon in ''the whole series'' who has anything even resembling a code of honor.
388	* OurDemonsAreDifferent: He's one of the Dragons to the Big Bad, but he's a noble being, seeing Ryu's potential and letting him live at the beginning of the game, even offering him a solo duel for the purpose of making Ryu conquer his fear towards him.
389	* WorthyOpponent: [[spoiler:Considers Ryu this if you defeat him without help.]]
390	[[/folder]]
391
392	[[folder:Aruhamel]]
393	!! Aruhamel (''Alzheimer'')
394
395	* BattleInTheCenterOfTheMind: [[spoiler:He's staying within [[TheWorldTree Gandaroof]]'s psyche, making a mess out of his mind so he's neutered as an obstacle.]]
396	* EasyAmnesia: He uses amnesia as a ''weapon''; in battle, he's capable of making the characters forget any number of spells from their spell list.
397	* InconsistentSpelling: This guy needs a break. He's spelt '''Aruhameru''' in the dialogue, '''Aruhamel''' in the BossBattle and '''Alheimer''' in the credits.
398	* MeaningfulName: Alzheimer. It's rather obvious in the Japanese version, but the English release's TranslationTrainwreck got his name LostInTranslation.
399	* OurDemonsAreDifferent: Unlike most other enemies in the game, he's a pure demon.
400	* TheReveal: [[spoiler:Before you fight him, he reveals that he was the one who erased the memories of Gate's citizens 10 years ago.]]
401	[[/folder]]
402
403	[[folder:Habaruku]]
404	!! Habaruku / [[spoiler:Father Hulk]] (''Habalq V'' / [[spoiler:''Halq'']])
405
406	* AbusiveParents: While he isn't shown to be outright abusive to Ray, he brushes him aside as "worthless" when he hears of his defeat at the hands of the heroes.
407	* BaldOfEvil: In his human form.
408	* ChekhovsGunman: [[spoiler:Remember that slightly goofy priest from the prologue, Father Hulk?]]
409	* CoDragons: Along with Barubary. He's the face of the Church of Evrai, [[spoiler:and he's also masquerading as Father Hulk in Gate, all of this in order to open the seal to free Deathevan from his prison.]]
410	* ColdBloodedTorture: [[spoiler:After abducting Father Ganer, he attaches him to a machine in the facility beneath the Grand Church and uses his life force to power Deathevan. If this doesn't sound bad enough, he tortures him like this for ''ten years''.]]
411	* DirtyCoward: [[spoiler:At the Cathedral, he spends most of his time running away from the party, and instead has Ray and deadly traps do the work for him.]]
412	* EarlyBirdCameo: [[spoiler:He appears as Father Hulk ''long'' before his formal introduction near the end of the game.]]
413	* HumanSacrifice: [[spoiler:In addition to offering sacrifices to Deathevan, he attempts to offer up Patty's life to open the portal to Infinity and release demons upon the world.]]
414	* InconsistentSpelling: At times (and during the BossFight), his name appears misspelled as ''Babaruku''. %% should give an example where the normal spelling is used
415	* KingIncognito: [[spoiler:Father Hulk, a seemingly minor character? No, that's just a guise for Habaruku, the face of the Church of Evrai.]]
416	* LightIsNotGood: It comes into the territory of being the face of the Church of Evrai, and despicably evil to boot.
417	* NotEvenHuman: Turns into a [[{{Cthulhumanoid}} Cthulhu-esque monster]] when fought.
418	* ParentalSubstitute: He raised Ray.
419	* SinisterMinister: Being the face of the Church of Evrai cements this for you.
420	* TentacledTerror: His monster form.
421	[[/folder]]
422
423	[[folder:Other demons]]
424	!! Augus (''Argus Cont''), Joker Heart, Trout Barm, Kuwadora (''Quadra X''), Shupkay, Ringmaster John, Father Manson.
425
426	Deathevan's servants. Originally normal, relatively speaking, beings, Deathevan's influence turned them into demons.
427	----
428	* AllThereInTheScript: Ringmaster John's name is only seen in the CreativeClosingCredits.
429	* AnOfferYouCantRefuse: Some of the servants engaged into this to serve their purposes. Joker attempted to do this to Nina, in order to force her into submitting to him as he had Mina as a bargain chip, and Kuwadora threatened the families of some of the servants in Simafort if they didn't comply with his orders.
430	* DeadlyGame: Argus wanted to turn the contest into this, thinking it'd be more exciting and satisfying for the public if Katt died during/after the bout.
431	* DefeatEqualsExplosion: In the battle screen they just disappear like any other monster, but once it goes back to the field they blow up.
432	* FatBastard: Trout and Joker.
433	* IHaveYouNowMyPretty: Joker's whole motivation was lusting over Nina.
434	* InconsistentSpelling: ''Shupkay'' in the dialogue becomes ''Shup'''u'''kay'' in the boss battle.
435	* ManOfWealthAndTaste: Trout, again.
436	* TheNeidermeyer: Shupkay.
437	* NightOfTheLivingMooks: Manson summons a group of undead before he decides to fight himself.
438	* NotEvenHuman: Though it's Not Even Humanoid for Shupkay and Kuwadora (as neither were human to begin with).
439	* ObviouslyEvil: Again, all of them, but the ringmaster who captures Spar is so blatantly evil that it's almost funny.
440	* OneWingedAngel: They all pull one before you fight them.
441	* OurWerewolvesAreDifferent: Augus, who has two heads in his true form.
442	* PaletteSwap: Shupkay and the ringmaster's true forms are used as [[DegradedBoss recurring enemies]] later in the game.
443	* SevenDeadlySins: Each of them is associated with one: Augus and Joker are both lust (bloodlust for Augus and sexual lust for Joker), Kuwadora and particularly Ringmaster John are Wrath, Shupkay is Envy (she is jealous of other, powerful nations while she lives in a desert and her people are mercenaries), Trout is Greed (he even steals money during his boss battle), Aruhamel and Munmar are Sloth (the former causing amnesia to their victims, and the latter causing eternal sleep to the whale), Father Mason and Barubary are Pride. There is no demon for Gluttony, but the Queen of Tunlan was in the middle of becoming one before Ryu stopped it.
444	* ShoutOutThemenaming:
445	** Trout and his rich neighbour/rival Kilgore are named after Kilgore Trout, a recurrent character used by writer Creator/KurtVonnegut.
446	** Manson is arguably named after cult leader UsefulNotes/CharlesManson, and his summoning of undead (and his position as ''Father'' Manson) may be references to Charles Manson's cult "The Family".
447	* SinisterMinister: Father Manson.
448	* SpotTheImpostor: Kuwadora, who poses as Jean at one point during the game. Somewhat subverted in that nearly everyone at the castle knew he was full of crap, but went along with him anyway. Not even Jean's master for his cooking attempted to go against him, due to being threatened into killing their family if the master chef didn't comply to his demands.
449	* TheUndead: Manson's [[OneWingedAngel fighting form]], the {{Necromancer}}.
