11 | [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin The heroine of the story.]] She arrives in Fornsigtuna at the beginning of the game, with no explanation given regarding where she has come from, and is immediately thrust into a plot to bring about [[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt Ragnarok]]. |
12 | ---- |
13 | * ActionGirl: Natch. Her title is "The Heroine" after all. |
14 | * BadassCape: Sports a fashionable cape during her journey. |
15 | * TheChosenOne: Downplayed. While the Norns mention her fate is to come into conflict with Egther, the heroine was already doing this before she learns her destiny, having been called by Jarl Ylfing. |
16 | * CleavageWindow: Has a small one. Rather impractical for the climate, at least. |
17 | * {{Expy}}: Of [[VideoGame/QuestForGlory The Prince of Shapeir]], [[DistaffCounterpart albeit a female one.]] She has the same character classes, the same missing background, the same swell adventuring garb and even the same hair and eyes. Unlike the Prince, however, she's not a SilentProtagonist, being fully voiced. |
18 | ** Possibly an [[IdenticalGrandson Almost Identical Daughter]]; naming her after one of the potential spouses form ''Dragon Fire'' has Hera's Ring show up in her inventory, implying she was named after her mother who gave the ring to her. |
19 | * FighterMageThief |
20 | ** ActionHero: The Warrior. Takes a very direct route to solving most of the game's problems, which often revolves finding whoever is causing the problem and then beating the tar out of them. |
21 | ** GuileHero: The Rogue. One of the classes' signature skills is "Fast Talk" and there are several moments in the plot where it's necessary to talk your way out of deadly situations. It's possible for a Rogue to get through the entire game without ever fighting anyone, and you'll get a special cutscene near the end and an achievement for doing so. |
22 | ** ScienceHero: The Sorceress. Whatever problem comes up, she has a spell for it. She also uses alchemy. |
23 | * TheHeroine |
24 | * HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: Depending on how she's played, the heroine can do some pretty scummy things: but her scripted dialogue is always polite and selfless to those she's trying to help. And, hey, she does save the world. |
25 | * [[spoiler: KilledOffForReal: The Stinger of the game has the heroine, after a long life of successful adventuring, killed in battle and taken to Valhalla. Of course, for a viking, this is a HappilyEverAfter]] |
26 | * SpectacularSpinning: The whirlwind blow a warrior can learn. |
27 | * WhatTheHellHero: Get caught stealing anything or hurting anyone in Munarvagir and the villagers' reaction is "How dare you abuse our hospitality!" before they throw you in the stocks. |

31 | !!'''Thrivaldi''' |
32 | |
33 | [[quoteright:150:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/71849075a9a6d37ad2039e94ff2f0a49.png]] |

35 | |
36 | Strongest of the trolls of Jarnvidr, which also makes him their leader, Thrivaldi has twice the heads of a normal person and half the smarts. Functions as TheDragon to Egther the jotunn, seeking to bring about Ragnarok so he eat all the human he wants and rule over the ruins. |
37 | ---- |
38 | * AllTrollsAreDifferent: A fairly traditional fantasy sort: two heads that argue with each other, really dumb, turns to stone in sunlight, enjoys eating humans. |
39 | * BondVillainStupidity: Seems to think that this is the way that villains are 'supposed' to act, and adapts his simple plans into needlessly complicated ones that fail because of this. "No, [[Film/JamesBond Ms Blonde]]. I expect you to die." |
40 | * CarryABigStick: A morning star. |
41 | * TheDragon: To Egther. |
42 | * DumbMuscle: He's unbelievably stupid, but actually one of the most powerful fighters in the game (which is pretty much the only reason Egther keeps him around). |
43 | * EvilLaugh |
44 | * TheDragon: Most of the plot is caused by his actions, but he is taking orders from [[BigBad Egther]] the whole time. |
45 | * ImAHumanitarian |
46 | * LoopholeAbuse: The seals on Gastropnir keep prevent all humans and Jotunn from entering or leaving. Whoever wrote that spell hadn't considered trolls though... |
47 | * MultipleHeadCase: Two heads. |
48 | * NotSoHarmlessVillain: He's perhaps the dumbest character in the game. That said, he does nearly kill both the heroine and Sigurd, the greatest warrior of Munarvagir, near the beginning of the game. At the beginning of the PointOfNoReturn he [[spoiler: ambushes the heroine and would neatly have killed her then, if he hadn't forced a moment of BondVillainStupidity on himself]]. |
49 | * PunyEarthlings: His opinion of humans. |
50 | * TakenForGranite: His final fate, regardless of the heroine's class. The heroine ends up tricking him into staying outside Egther's castle too long, and the sun comes up and turns him to stone. How each class does it is different- Warriors fight with him after he knocks her down, and they fight for so long that the sun comes up, Sorceresses escape from the locks he restrains them with and then fight him, and Rogues talk with him for long enough that he doesn’t notice the sun coming up until it's too late. |
51 | * TooDumbToLive: Nearly kills the heroine in ''the opening credits.'' But leaves her alone after half-burying her in an avalanche, as he assumes that humans turn to stone in the sunlight. This is the first in a long string of Thrivaldi's plans failing due to his monumental inability to think anything through. |
52 | ** It is implied that Egther had an earlier troll who erased himself from existence through TemporalParadox, so Thrivaldi may actually be an improvement in terms of intelligence. Not that that's saying much. |
53 | * TheUnfought: Rogues don’t fight Thrivaldi like the other classes do, they instead distract him with idle chatter long enough for the sun to come out. |
54 | * VerbalTic: One of his heads frequently ends his sentences with "Oho, yes!" |
55 | * VillainExitStageLeft: After his party is defeated by you and the people of Munarvagir, he runs away. |

61 | |
62 | The last jotunn on Midgard, sealed inside his castle by humans two generations ago when he tried to destroy them, now out to start Ragnarok and bring about the end of the world. |
63 | ---- |
64 | * BeardOfEvil: Have you ever seen a frost giant without a beard? |
65 | * BigBad |
66 | * TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt: Hates the Aesir and the humans, and wants to wipe both out by bringing about Ragnarok and ruling over the frozen ashes. |
67 | * EvilSoundsDeep |
68 | * AnIcePerson: Standard for all jotunn, but Egther's powers are greater than the standard frost giants found in Jarnvidr; he is the cause of the unnaturally long winter that starts the plot. |
69 | * InformedAttribute: He's supposedly the last of the frost giants, but around Chapter 3, other frost giants will start showing up as random monster encounters. |
70 | * LoadBearingBoss: After he dies, his castle collapses. |
71 | * MagicKnight: A powerful spellcaster (as every class of the Heroine will find out), he is also skilled with a sword (as only a Warrior will find out). |
72 | * OrcusOnHisThrone: Since he can't leave the castle, he has no choice but to rely on underlings. |
73 | * OurGiantsAreBigger: Take a wild guess. |
74 | * SurroundedByIdiots: Often feels this way towards Thrivaldi, [[TooDumbToLive which is entirely justified.]] |
75 | * SmallNameBigEgo: While most of the world considers him a mighty and legitimate threat, [[spoiler: Loki]] thinks this about him, calling him a "fool among frost giants" and claiming he has no right to end the world. [[spoiler: A few drops of the poison that has been tormenting Loki for ages are all that it takes for a Rogue to kill Egther, so Loki has a point.]] |

121 | * CheerfulChild: Far and away the nicest person in the game. |
122 | * CowardlyLion: He tries to fight [[spoiler: Thrivaldi]] despite being scared. It doesn't work. |
123 | * HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: He's so nice, he won't be bad to the heroine [[spoiler: if she steals Andvari's ring. You can give it to him to remove the curse.]] |

148 | * RiddleMeThis: His challenge to the Sorceress before he'll teach her the [[ShockAndAwe Lightning Bolt]] spell is to answer his riddles and give him a riddle to which he does not know the answer. |
149 | * WizardClassic: Looks like your standard wizard, with the staff, cape, and pointed hat. [[OlderThanYouThink Of course,]] the wizard classic trope was based on Nordic myth in the first place. |
150 | ** WizardBeard: And the long white beard. |
151 | |
152 | !!Snorri |
153 | |
154 | [[quoteright:150:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/742f568b9b7bea2f0cbf5d309d25774f.png]] |

167 | |
168 | The former head of the guild, before he became sick. He lives out of the village so as not to give anyone else his plague. |
169 | |
170 | * DespairEventHorizon: He has crossed it, because, as a Viking, someone who dies of plague does not go to Valhalla, which pains Arngrim greatly. |
171 | * RetiredBadass: Forcibly retired due to plague, but all those heads in the guild were killed by Arngrim. |
172 | * VictorianNovelDisease: It's not clarified as to what it is, but he has all of the symptoms. His skin is even paler than anyone else's in-game. |

191 | |
192 | * AdamSmithHatesYourGuts: She'll sell fish (needed to retrieve [[spoiler: the cat from the tree]] at an outlandish price. |
193 | ** If you try to start a conversation with her without giving her money or something to help survive the winter (food, warm clothes, etc), she'll be ruder and less helpful to you. |

202 | |

206 | * [[spoiler: GlamourFailure: His human disguise is pretty good, but his eyelids give him away as a Svartalf, as does the fact that he takes pains not to be outside during the day.]] |
207 | * [[spoiler: MySpeciesDothProtestTooMuch: He is much more comfortable among the humans of Munarvagir than among his fellow Svartalfar.]] |
208 | * WalkingSpoiler: [[spoiler:That he is a svartalf disguised as a human makes pretty much everything about him a spoiler.]] |

213 | |
214 | The owner of the item store in Munarvagir |

217 | * OddFriendship: She is a upright and honest woman, and is friends with LovableRogue Kraka. |
218 | |
219 | !!Sigurd |
220 | |

222 | |
223 | Leader of Munarvagir and one of the owners of the Eye of Thiassi |
224 | |
225 | * AsskickingLeadsToLeadership: He nearly beat Thrivaldi in single combat. Only a warrior heroine can do that, and only at the end of the game. |
226 | * {{BFS}}: He sports it if a warrior Heroine challenges him for the Eye, or [[spoiler: when Thrivaldi attacks]]. |
227 | * BoisterousBruiser: Fun-loving and wild, and says he loves a good raid if the heroine tells him that she is a pirate. |
228 | * EasyAmnesia: He has forgotten [[spoiler: he loves Byrnhilde the valkyrie.]] Of course, this is caused by the magic of the Aesir. |
229 | * PlotCoupon: Keeps the Eye of Thiassi. |

241 | |
242 | [[folder: Svartalfar]] |
243 | |
244 | StrangeSyntaxSpeaker: About half the Svartalfar speak in unusual and distinctive ways. Of those that fall under this trope, no two use it the same way. Every sentence from Alviss is a question, for example. |
245 | |
246 | !!Alviss |
247 | |
248 | [[quoteright:150:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/5571f6342c59389f59b17bbf983c9a4d.png]] |

259 | |
260 | The greatest craftsman among the Svartalfar, quite possibly throughout the Nine Realms. |
261 | |
262 | * DoingItForTheArt: He's quite offended if you offer to buy something from him. Similarly, he mentions that, while he's crafted some truly fantastic weapons, he's unwilling to sell, give, or trade them to someone who wants to actually use them. |
263 | * {{Jerkass}}: He's needlessly rude and condescending to the heroine, and tries to back out of a deal when she proves too efficient at meeting her end of it. |
264 | * VoluntaryShapeshifting: He can turn into a fish. This proves especially useful when he decides to say ScrewThisImOuttaHere. |
265 | * UltimateBlacksmith: Though you get Infinity+1 Armor rather than an InfinityPlusOneSword from him. |
266 | |
267 | !!Eitri |

270 | |
271 | A Svartalfar collector. |
272 | |
273 | * AmbiguousGender: While the game uses male pronouns, Eitri's voice and portrait are quite androgynous. If you ask about female Svartalfar, Eitri informs you that Svartalfar frequently use magic to appear as they wish and their actual gender is considered private. |
274 | * CollectorOfTheStrange: At least from the perspective of his fellow Svartalfar. He collects objects from all over the Nine Worlds, though his lack of experience in those worlds means he ends up with a lot of junk. |
275 | |
276 | !!Fafnir |
277 | |

280 | A Svartalfar who considers himself the ruler of Nidavellir. No one else seems to take this self-appointed title seriously. |
281 | |
282 | * CainAndAbel: [[spoiler:With Regin]] |
283 | * ThirdPersonPerson: He always refers to himself as "one". |
284 | * VoluntaryShapeshifting: He turns into [[spoiler:a dragon]] if you [[spoiler: refuse to return the magic chest when he catches you with it.]] |

289 | |
290 | The greatest warrior among the Svartalfar. |
291 | |
292 | * EpicFlail |
293 | * GeniusBruiser: He's the mightiest warrior among the Svartalfar and is also a highly skilled alchemist. He's even managed to [[spoiler: recreate the legendary mimisbrunnr]]. He also [[MagicKnight uses magic while fighting]] and if you challenge him personally, it's as much about outwitting him as anything else. |
294 | * PunchClockVillain: He keeps Heime captive as part of a bargain with Thrivaldi, but he has no loyalty to Egther and will not even hold a grudge against the Heroine for rescuing Heime. |

318 | A Huldra, a forest creature that lure men. |
319 | |
320 | * CensorBox: She's annoyed to be forced to use them. It's for keeping MoralGuardians off the game. |
321 | * CharmPerson: She hypnotize the Jarl to lure him to her. |
322 | |
323 | |
324 | !!'''Brynhild''' |

328 | A Valkyrie who sleeps in a circle of magical fire. |
329 | |
330 | * ActionGirl: Comes with being a Valkyrie. If you rescue her before [[spoiler: Thrivaldi's assault on Munarvagir]], she lends her blade to the cause. |
331 | * AmbiguouslyBi: She is clearly in love with Sigurd, but at the end of the game she also walks hand-in-hand with the Heroine onto the rainbow bridge to Valhalla, which may be interpreted as a LesYay moment. |
332 | * {{Valkyries}}: Without a doubt. |
333 | * YeOldeButcheredeEnglishe: Speaks this way. |
334 | |
335 | |
336 | !!'''Ratatosk''' |
337 | |

339 | |
340 | The Doom Squirrel, who plans to gnaw through the roots of Yggdrasil, but is generally just an annoying nuisance. Turns up at several points to taunt the heroine. |
341 | |
342 | * DeathbringerTheAdorable: Ratatosk, with shades of IneffectualSympatheticVillain. He might threaten to gnaw through the World Tree, but damn if he isn't cute. |
343 | * DoomyDoomsOfDoom: Seems to find it difficult to speak a sentence that doesn't involve the word "doom" in it somewhere. He explains that he just really loves the word. [[spoiler: it's possible to give him a change of heart by convincing him to change it to "bloom" instead.]] |
344 | * IneffectualSympatheticVillain: Tries hard to be just as evil as the main villains, and really is immortal, but lacks the intelligence and the size to do anything important. The heroine's reactions to him range from annoyance to pity to just thinking he's cute. |
345 | * HeelFaceTurn: It's possible to convince him to do this when he reaches a low-point of despair about how terrible a villain he is. [[spoiler:He decides to become the Bloom Squirrel instead.]] |
346 | * RedEyesTakeWarning: Not much warning, mind. |
347 | * KillerRabbit: Averted. Attempts to set himself up as this, but he's really got no game. Arngrim does describe him the same was as the [[Film/MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail trope namer]] though. |
348 | |
349 | !![[spoiler:'''Loki''']] |
350 | |
351 | [[spoiler:The trickster god, imprisoned and cursed by Odinn for challenging the gods.]] |
352 | |
353 | * FateWorseThanDeath |
354 | * RiddleMeThis: [[spoiler: He'll tell a sorceress the riddle that Aurvandel doesn't know the answer to.]] |
355 | * [[spoiler:WalkingSpoiler]] |
