5* BattleCouple: The player can form one with one of the human party members, if they choose to pursue a romance after maxing out their relationship level, resulting in the player fighting opponents alongside their lover.
6* CollectorOfForms: Rather than catching {{Mons}}, the player has to record them onto cassettes and shapeshift into them.
7* EveryoneIsBi: All of the party members (excluding Barkley, who is a dog) can be romanced after maxing out their bond, regardless of the player's gender.
8* TheFellowshipHasEnded: [[spoiler:At the end of the story, after the player and their companions succeed in finding a way to leave New Wirral and return home, the companions bid goodbye to the player before traveling back to their own worlds, knowing that they will most likely never meet each other again, since leaving New Wirral is a one-way trip. Barkley instead follows the player to their universe.]]
9* {{Leitmotif}}: Every partner has their own theme song, with a standard version that plays during the their introductions and relaitonship level-up conversations, and a heartfelt version that plays during the partner's emotional moments, including Relationship Level 5 scenes, romance scenes, and the scene where Barkley [[spoiler:buries his deceased former human partner]].
10* OptionalCharacterScene: Each partner has different dialogue for story events that don't have a RequiredPartyMember. If you beat an Archangel with Barkley as your partner, Kayleigh will talk about the latest clue in Morgante's Song at Gramophone Café instead.
11* RelationshipValues: The power of the FusionDance between you and your partner increases when the bond between you is strengthened. It can be raised by adventuring together as well as by completing a partner's unique quests. When it's high enough, it can even turn from a partnership into a full relationship.
12* RequiredPartyMember:
13** Kayleigh and her Sirenade join at the beginning of the game, as part of the main story, and she is later required for her personal sidequest to take down the Mourningtown cult.
14** Every recruitable character (Eugene, Felix, Meredith, Viola, and Barkley) joins during their own personal sidequest, and must be in the party for its own main dungeon, which ends with a fight against an Archangel, or in the case of Barkley's quest, an Averevoir.
15* SignatureMon: Each companion has a perk that grants them improved stats when transformed into the monster they start with.
16[[/folder]]

18[[folder:The player]]
19The latest human to arrive in New Wirral. Shortly after arriving, the Archangel Morgante gives them instructions on how to escape.
20----
21* TheAce: Naturally being the main protagonist. Over of the course of the game, they become the strongest battler in all of New Wirral. The player will not only have defeated all twelve ranger captains but all the Archangels as well if going for HundredPercentCompletion.
22* CanonName: Their default name is "Cass", which is also used in promotional screenshots.
23* CharacterCustomization: The game begins with a menu to [[HelloInsertNameHere choose your character's name]] as well as their pronouns, and then choose their hair, shirt, pants, and potential accessories from a variety of color options. All of these elements can later be altered in their house in Harbourtown.
24* MasterApprenticeChain: The game begins with the player washing up on New Wirral and Kayleigh coming to their aid, gifting them a tape and teaching them how to battle by fighting alongside them. Later, one of the first quests available on the Ranger Guild's board after becoming a full member is to help a new arrival to New Wirral named Frankie by gifting her one of your own tapes and fighting alongside her.
25* SixthRanger: Becomes a Ranger Captain after defeating the other twelve captains as well as [[spoiler:Ianthe and Wilma]].

27
28[[folder:Kayleigh]]
29[[quoteright:150:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kayleigh.png]]
30-->'''Voiced by:''' Katherine Moran
31The first person the player meets in New Wirral, who teaches them how to use cassettes. Her SignatureMon is Sirenade.
32----
33* AccidentalMisnaming: When making chit chat in the cafe, Kayleigh says she misses cafes where they write your name in the cup but complains they usually spell it wrong and put her name as "Carol" once.
34* ApologizesALot: Meredith calls her out for this by mentioning in a campfire conversation that Kayleigh fells like she needs to apologize for stuff all the time.
35* CultDefector: [[spoiler:She used to be Dorian's right-hand woman prior to leaving the cult due to how messed-up it ended up becoming.]]
36* NiceGirl: She's friendly to the player from the very first encounter and is supportive of everyone in Harbortown.
37* POVBoyPosterGirl: Due to the main character having a completely customizable appearance, it's Kayleigh, the first person they meet and the only mandatory party member, that's featured on the game's title art.
38[[/folder]]
39
40[[folder:Eugene]]
41[[quoteright:150:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/eugene_90.png]]
42-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/AleksLe
43A man in a neon jacket whose mission is to fight back against the Landkeepers, a vampiric-looking gang of real estate agents from his home dimension. His SignatureMon is Clocksley.
44----
45* ArchEnemy: Acts as this to the Landkeepers. His unique quests involves destroying all of their headquarters.
46* ChronicHeroSyndrome: He needs to feel like he's doing good at all times. It turns out this isn't just egoism -- Eugene comes from a post-capitalist future that stresses cooperation and the public good, and never felt like he was able to measure up to everyone back home. His vigilantism in New Wirral is mostly an attempt to make up for lost time.
47* HiddenDepths: He initially comes off as hotheaded and a little dim, but he has a sensitive side under his heroics.
48* JumpedAtTheCall: Of all the partners, Eugene is by far the most enthusiastic about monster transformation, and wonders if he can bring this technology back home to benefit society.
49* MagikarpPower: When Eugene first joins, his monster transformation is underwhelming, and his personal quest can potentially span the entire game, leaving you unable to fuse with him for hours. However, Clocksley's evolution Robindam packs an extremely high Ranged Attack stat and a unique skill that changes all its attack damage to Ranged, and is also compatible with Echolocation, which activates automatically and lets its skills target the entire enemy party for three turns. It doesn't take much work to make him into the best nuker in the game.
50* ShipTease: With [[spoiler:Sunny]]. If the player has completed [[spoiler:Sunny's quest]] and Eugene's Relationship Level 5 event but does not romance him, he will be seen going on a date with [[spoiler:Sunny]] in Harbourtown.
51* VigilanteMan: He's the only one in New Wirral taking the fight to the Landkeepers, breaking into their offices from the rooftops in order to fight them. In the final confrontation against them at Landkeeper headquarters, their leader [[spoiler:Archangel Mammon]] even asks if Eugene actually has any motivation other than being a vigilante or if it's the only way he can cope with being stuck in New Wirral.
52[[/folder]]
53
54[[folder:Felix]]
55[[quoteright:150:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/felix_2.png]]
56-->'''Voiced by:''' Darius T. Jackson
57An artist specializing in [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zoetrope zoetropes]], whose entire apartment crashed into New Wirral alongside him. His SignatureMon is Brushroom.
58----
59* BookEnds: Early in Felix's quest, he shows you one of his childhood drawings of [[spoiler:Kuneko]] that very much falls under StylisticSuck. At the end of his quest, he shows you a much more skillfully drawn sketch of [[spoiler:Shining Kuneko]].
60* CreatorBreakdown: In-Universe; Felix used to be a corporate artist who became disillusioned with his job and tried to go independent, only to suffer from artist's block. He's hoping his time in New Wirral can help him recover his spark. %% InUniverse
61* IJustWriteTheThing: InUniverse, he says this of his zoetropes during his Level 5 conversation, noting that he doesn't know how his latest one will end yet and that it's up to the characters to decide. Given that [[spoiler:one of his past creations has already come to life]], he's more justified in believing this than most examples.
62* OldShame: [[spoiler:Kuneko, a character Felix created while in his anime phase. Felix's story arc focuses on him reconciling his feelings about his old creation as he realizes that he had to start from somewhere.]]
63[[/folder]]
64
65[[folder:Meredith]]
66[[quoteright:150:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/meredith.png]]
67-->'''Voiced by:''' Crystal Lee
68A woman who's willing to invade a mall from another world, now the home of dangerous beasts and even an Archangel, just to track down a music record from her own dimension. Her SignatureMon is Kittelly.
69----
70* DeadpanSnarker: She often makes dry remarks towards the player and the people around her.
71* FishOutOfTemporalWater: She is confused on why a lot of people around her miss the "inter net" because she was sucked into this dimension in 1989, so she is a little out of the loop.
72* ShaggyDogStory: Meredith's personal quest has her asking for help in order to raid an abandoned, now monster-filled, mall that got warped to New Wirral in order to find a music record and help her cope with being stuck in another world. Once she finally reaches the record store, she finds the album... but it's from a dimension other than her own, with completely different tracks, and Meredith is forced to admit that she's completely cut off from her home. After the quest is complete and her RelationshipValues are raised, she'll accept it, and a campfire chat has her admit she's now fascinated by the existence of infinite dimensions with infinite variations of art, music, and literature.
73[[/folder]]
74
75[[folder:Viola]]
76[[quoteright:150:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/viola_5.png]]
77-->'''Voiced by:''' Savy Des-Etages
78A woman who's looking for her brother, Sebastian. Her SignatureMon is Spirouette.
79----
80* FishOutOfTemporalWater: All of the partners come from different eras, but Viola is from far back enough to be impressed by electric lighting and cinnamon rolls.
81* PublicDomainCharacter: [[spoiler:Robin Goodfellow reveals that she's a character from ''Theatre/TwelfthNight''. She's shocked to learn that her reality is just a story at first, but comes to the conclusion that all stories are true somewhere.]]
82* ScrewDestiny: [[spoiler:Upon learning her origins as a fictional character from Robin Goodfellow, Viola refuses to let it drive her to despair, and rejects the idea that her future is already written.]]
83--> '''Viola:''' [[spoiler:This future that has been written for me is but ''words on paper!'' I defy them!]]
84[[/folder]]
85
86[[folder:Barkley]]
87[[quoteright:150:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/barkley_59.png]]
88A Pomeranian dog who's looking for his owner on Mt. Wirral. His SignatureMon is Pombomb.
89----
90* {{Balloonacy}}: Instead of growing a pair of wings like the humans, he summons a balloon whenever he glides.
91* CanineCompanion: He is a dog and one of the potential partners you can recruit in the game. [[spoiler:He even chooses to join the player character in their universe when the party is leaving New Wirral in the story's ending.]]
92* HiddenDepths: He's unusually intelligent for a dog. This might be due to genre conventions, but Aldgrave Tomb Station's dungeon can reveal that [[spoiler:he was born in the year ''14140 AD'', suggesting he might be more highly evolved than the average canine. Of course, this might just be 2020 in Dog Years]].
93* IChooseToStay: [[spoiler:While everyone goes back to their own dimensions, Barkley chooses to go with the player back to their own dimension]].
94* NearlyNormalAnimal: He's an ordinary dog that happens to know how to use cassette tapes to transform.
95* TeamPet: He's the only non-human party member, and shows affection to the player by licking them.
96* UndyingLoyalty: To [[spoiler:his late human partner]]. He enlisted the player character's help to [[spoiler:defeat said partner's killer, Averevoir, so he could [[DueToTheDead bury the body]]]], and his bond towards them is strong enough to [[spoiler:cause him to fuse with the player character in order to accomplish said goal]].
97* UniformityException: The only partner who isn't human, the only one who starts out with a bootleg monster, the only one who (for obvious reasons) cannot be romanced and the only one who [[spoiler:doesn't fight an Archangel in their personal quest]].
98[[/folder]]
99
100----
101!!Harbourtown
102[[folder:Pensby]]
103-->'''Voiced by:''' Mitra Djalili
104The doctor that runs the local hospital. After performing a check-up on the player character soon after arriving in New Wirral and helping deliver the news that they're cut off from their home dimension, Pensby can sell them various healing items.
105----
106* TheMedic: The town doctor who also sells cures for combat.
107[[/folder]]
108

110-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/AllegraClark
111The woman that runs the Gramophone Café.
112----
113* FormerTeenRebel: There's a purple vine tattoo visible on one of her arms, and if asked about her home, she states that she misses motorcycles.
114[[/folder]]
115
116[[folder:Hoylake]]
117-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/JMichaelTatum
118A scientist researching the Beasts of New Wirral, who has set up shop in the Ranger Guild but does not actively participate in battles himself. He gives the player rewards for reaching milestones of monsters recorded in their bestiary.
119----
120* MilesGloriosus: In the post-game, he gets an assistant, who boasts that Hoylake was a brilliant and award-winning researcher back in his home dimension... according to stories told to him by Hoylake.
121[[/folder]]
122----
123
124!!The Ranger Guild
125[[folder:In general]]
126A group of humans stationed in Harbourtown that are dedicated to keeping the people trapped in New Wirral safe.
127----
128* AstonishinglyAppropriateAppearance: Each of the Captains has a job that accurately reflects the type of Beast that they specialize in, such as Captain Lodestein the electrician with Electric-themed beasts, and Captain Codey the PlayfulHacker that exclusively uses Bootleg versions of beasts.
129[[/folder]]
130
131[[folder:Ianthe]]
132'''Head Ranger'''
133->'''Voiced by:''' Liz Morey
134The founder of the guild, and the first human in New Wirral to discover how to transform into Cassette Beasts.
135----
136* BattleCouple: [[spoiler:She and her wife Wilma are both rangers, and they battle together as the last challenge for the player to become a Ranger Captain.]]
137* CoolOldLady: Ianthe is still actively fighting to protect others despite her face being wrinkled and grey streaks in her hair.
138* CoolSword: An NPC in the Ranger Headquarters mentions that Ianthe used to use a "mechanical gear sword" back before anyone figured out how to use cassettes to transform.
139* EstablishingCharacterMoment: She is introduced by being referred to as "Confident Woman" by the game and trying to tell a Rogue Fusion to stay away from the Ranger Outpost. When that does not work, she approaches the Rogue Fusion and easily defeats it in one attack, establishing her prowess in battle. An impressed Kayleigh remarks that Ianthe is in charge of the Rangers for a reason.
140* HadToBeSharp: She was a detective in her former home which she describes as a WretchedHive, so she took up monster fighting without issues -- and this is ''before'' discovering the empowering cassettes.
141* OfficialCouple: With [[spoiler:Ranger Wilma, her wife]].
142* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: A conversation at the Ranger Guild between Captain Codey and Leader Ianthe after defeating the former has Codey wish he'd chosen a cooler name for himself, like "Killswitch". Ianthe then admits that "Ianthe" isn't her real name; it's the name of a goddess of water she used as an alias in her own world when she worked as a private detective, and she decided she liked it more than her original name when reestablishing herself in New Wirral.
143* RelationshipReveal: After challenging all twelve of the other Ranger Captains in order to apply for membership in the Ranger Guild, Ianthe states that the final trial will be against her. She then states that she hopes the player "gives us your all", clarifying that she'll be fighting alongside her spouse [[spoiler:Ranger Wilma, the woman that's been running the Guild's front desk]], with the only available dialogue options both expressing surprise that she's married.
144* SignatureMon: Arguably Gearyu, given that it's the monster she uses the first time you see her fight, her lead in the fight against her, and is likely the only major opponent that uses one to begin with.
145[[/folder]]
146
147[[folder:Wilma]]
148->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/CindyRobinson
149The lady who runs the Guild's front desk and exchanges upgrades for Fused Material.
150----
151* BattleCouple: [[spoiler:She and her wife Ianthe are both rangers, and they battle together as the last challenge for the player to become a Ranger Captain.]]
152* CoolOldLady: Wilma proves to be quite the skilled fighter when [[spoiler:she joins her wife Ianthe in battle]].
153* OfficialCouple: With [[spoiler:Leader Ianthe, her wife]].
154[[/folder]]
155
156[[folder:Wallace]]
157'''Construction Worker'''

167'''Questionable Treasure Seeker'''
168-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/MarinMiller
169A ranger captain who is found on a small trash island and specializes in using trash-themed monsters.
170----
171* CollectorOfTheStrange: When they aren't on duty, they collect junk and trinkets from the around the island.
172* PunnyName: A "Skip", in British English, is a large trash bin, of the sort meant to be picked up by garbage trucks. Captain Skip spends their downtime collecting junk and garbage, a practice referred to as "Skipping" in British slang. Fittingly, their SignatureMon is based on trash containers as well.
173* SignatureMon: Very fond of the Binvader line. Their rematch team has four Binterlopers, two of which are bootlegs to ensure type variety.
174* ZergRush: Their strategy is to summon a large number of Binvitation allies or Binvader Metal walls to rush the opponent down with Binvasion.
175[[/folder]]
176
177[[folder:Zedd]]
178'''"Meditator"'''
179->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/SeanChiplock
180A ranger captain who's usually asleep on Autumn Hill.
181----
182* AchillesHeel: His strategy involves making use of Hibernate and Meditate which can make the fight drag on and even potentially dangerous, but if you can apply berserk status to him before he does this (which can be easily done with Metal and Poison attacks, given that he primarily uses Astral monsters), the fight will be made much easier.
183* BrilliantButLazy: Captain Zedd is a powerful combatant but complains about the hard work that comes with his position, and doesn't even reveal himself as a Captain to the player until after posing as a regular Ranger and getting them to do his current monster clearing job for him.
184* MeditationPowerup: His strategy involves using Hibernate and Meditate to power himself up in battle, and his partner's monsters are designed around mitigating the drawbacks of being asleep, primarily with Sure-Fire.
185* PunnyName: "Zed" is one way to pronounce the letter "Z". [[CatchingSomeZs A bunch of Zs in a row is used to represent snoring or sleeping]].
186* SignatureMon: He particularly favours the Stardigrade line, using both Stardigrade and its remaster Galagor in his first fight.
187[[/folder]]
188
189[[folder:Judas]]

191-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/EdwynTiong

194* LifeDrain: Specialises in draining health away from his opponents.
195* NoShirtLongJacket: His official design reveals that he wears a long green coat, but no shirt.
196[[/folder]]
197
198[[folder:[=Clee-0=]]]
199'''Casino Mechanoid'''
200->'''Voiced by:''' Kiane Chula King
201A coin-operated robot from a casino. Her strategy revolves around Luck with moves such as Gambit and Roll Again.
202----
203* InYourNatureToDestroyYourselves: [[ConversationalTroping Holds this opinion]] during her conversation with Ianthe after she told Clee-0 that humans are more driven by emotions than logic to her frustration. Ianthe assures her that her service is appreciated until that happens.
204* KillerRobot: Clee-0 is trying not to be one; she'll sometimes go on a rant about how much she'd enjoy seeing humans suffer, but then stop to calm herself down, occasionally mentioning how she's in anger management therapy.
205* RobotGirl: There's a deactivated robot in New Wirral Park that is operated by a coin slot. Upon finding a coin and reactivating it, she turns out to be Captain Clee-0 of the Rangers Guild, who originally came from an Egyptian-themed casino and hates humanity for the limitations installed on her but is working through her anger issues.
206[[/folder]]
207
208[[folder:Lodestein]]
209'''Electrician'''
210-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/SeanChiplock
211An electrician found in Ham.
212----
213* AlliterativeName: His full name is Levi Lodestein.
214* EarlyBirdCameo: He is first encountered in the player's initial visit to Harbourtown, where he is repairing the town's elevator, before he gets properly introduced as a Ranger Captain and challenged by the player to battle later in the game.
215* LastNameBasis: His full name is Levi Lodestein, but his first name is only mentioned when he introduces himself; elsewhere in the game, he's only referred to as Lodestein.
216* PungeonMaster: Sprinkles plenty of electricity puns in his dialogue.
217--> Lodestein: Forgive me for the puns - it's a force of habit.
218* PunnyName:
219** The name "Lodestein" sounds a bit like "lodestone"; a naturally magnetic stone. You can reach Lodestein after acquiring the Electromagnetism ability, and his preferred strategy involves electromagnetism.
220** Then there's his first name, "Levi", which can be taken as coming from "levitate" in reference to magnetic levitation, as you must use the Electromagnetism ability to float across a gap to meet him.
221* ShockAndAwe: He likes to use Lightning-type monsters and his main strategy involves inflicting the Conductive status.
222[[/folder]]
223
224[[folder:Penny Dreadful]]
225'''Death Cheater'''
226-->'''Voiced by:''' Elexi Walker
227A ranger captain in New London that specializes in the Ghostly effect.
228----
229* DishingOutDirt: Has a preference for Earth-type monsters based on mortality.
230* HoldTheLine: Because of how the Ghostly effect works (making her invincible for a set number of turns, then killing her), this is how her fight normally plays out; you can't hurt her, but you just have to survive until her own Ghostly effects kill her and she runs out of ways to avoid it. The player can subvert this and remove her Ghostly effect if they're properly prepared, though.
231* {{Intangibility}}: Her main strategy is using the Ghostly effect to become invincible to normal attacks.
232* PunnyName: A penny dreadful is a type of cheap novel, often focusing on violent or horror stories, of the sort that Penny is basing her look and strategy on.
233* SoulPower: Her strategy focuses on using undead-based abilities such as Ghostly and [[BackFromTheDead Ritual]].
234[[/folder]]
235
236[[folder:Gladiola]]
237'''Mistress of Blades'''
238-->'''Voiced by:''' Nadia Marshall
239A ranger captain found in the southwest area of the Mire Sea.
240----
241* DeathOfAThousandCuts: Her strategy involves dodging attacks to activate her Jagged Edge passive to constantly chip away at your health, on top of actual cutting moves like Double Slice.
242* LadyOfWar: She is designed as one, and she mainly uses monsters that specialize in close-range attacks.
243[[/folder]]
244
245[[folder:Heather]]
246'''Weather Reporter'''
247-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/RisaMei
248A weather lady that uses weather-based strategies.
249----
250* CityMouse: She talks with Ianthe about how she misses her previous life in a metropolis. Ianthe replies that [[HatedHometown she has different opinions towards her own past life in the city]].
251* WeatherManipulation: Her main gimmick is using weather-based moves like Avalanche and Fog.
252[[/folder]]
253
254[[folder:Buffy]]
255'''Bodybuilder'''
256->'''Voiced by:''' Valeria Rodriguez
257A ranger captain who regularly does workouts.
258----
259* AchillesHeel: Her strategy is entirely reliant on reaching 10 AP for Last Rites as frequently as possible. The issue is that almost all of the tapes she uses are vulnerable to AP Drain one way or another (Astral for Liligator, Air for Dandylion/Blossomaw, Plastic for Galagor; Grampus/Faerious have to be hit with a Fire attack before they become weak to Astral), and outside of Last Rites, her only attack is Smack/Spit, potentially buying you time to take her down before she can attack.
260* AmazonianBeauty: Her stomach has abs to really sell how muscular and gorgeous she is.
261* ManaMeter: Her strategy involves maxing out her AP meter as quickly as possible to launch out high-AP attacks such as Last Rites frequently, often by [[ManaDrain stealing AP from your monsters]], and her partner using AP donate to speed up the process.
262* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: When it's time to challenge her, Captain Buffy states that her real name is actually Bruna, but everyone calls her Buffy because she spends all of her time working out and is quite buff.
263[[/folder]]
264
265[[folder:Cybil]]

269----
270* PleaseSubscribeToOurChannel: They are a social media streamer and wants to present the battle with the player to their audience.
271* SwitchOutMove: They specialise in forcing their opponent to switch tapes, forcing them to take damage from Shrapnel every time they transform.
272[[/folder]]
273
274[[folder:Codey]]
275'''Tape Hacker'''
276-->'''Voiced by:''' Cory Yee
277A ranger captain in the eastern part of Mt. Wirral who uses Bootlegs monsters.
278----
279* {{Chuunibyou}}: In his conversation with Ianthe, he admits that he regrets that he didn't choose a "cooler" nickname such as Killswitch.
280* GlassShatteringSound: His strategy is to use Glitter attacks to change your type, Glass attacks to turn your Glitter monsters into Glass-types, then spam Air attacks to stack up Resonance and eventually OneHitKill you.
281* PaletteSwap: All his monsters are Bootlegs.
282* PlayfulHacker: His cassettes are all Bootlegs because of his hacking skills.
283[[/folder]]
284
285[[folder:Frankie]]
286-->'''Voiced by:'''
287A new ranger recruit that only shows up after defeating Ianthe, becoming a Ranger Captain, and defeating the final boss. The player character becomes her mentor and gives her her first cassette tape.
288----
289%%* {{Fangirl}}
290* FluffyTamer: Manages to convince a wild Puppercut to team up with her for a battle, though it doesn't last.
291* FusionDance: Eventually teams up and can fuse with Vin, another new Ranger recruit.
292* JumpedAtTheCall: She is ''wildly'' enthusiastic about turning into monsters and doing heroics.
293* MissedTheCall: She is enthusiastic about doing heroics. However, the player character has already taken care of the main conflict by the time Frankie arrives on New Wirral.
294* SignatureMon: Notable in that, as her mentor, ''you'' get to decide which monster she gets. Whatever you choose, she'll have it in all your future encounters with her.
295[[/folder]]
296
297[[folder:Vin]]
298-->'''Voiced by:'''
299A member of the Mourningtown cult that appears in the postgame, causing trouble by stealing Ranger supplies.
300----
301* DuelBoss: Insists on fighting you one-on-one across several encounters.
302* FusionDance: Eventually teams up and can fuse with Frankie, another new Ranger recruit.
303* HeelFaceTurn: Eventually turns away from his thieving ways and joins the Rangers.

312->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KayleighMcKee (Sunny)
313A group of pale-skinned and fanged humanoids that are responsible for devastating Eugene's original dimension. Despite their monstrous appearances, they're actually just unethical landlords.
314----
315* ActuallyNotAVampire: Eugene introduces the Landkeepers using terminology related to vampires; he calls them "blood-suckers" and tells them to "go back to the darkness from where they came", then warns a town member not to invite them in, [[MustBeInvited because that's what they want]]. He quickly admits they aren't actually vampires when you actually help him fight them in his quests, which the player character calls him out on.
316* ArchEnemy: Eugene's personal quest is to take out the entire group, claiming that they were responsible for ruining his own dimension and wanting to spare New Wirral the same fate.
317* DecapitatedArmy: In Eugene's personal quests, [[spoiler:after defeating Archangel Mammon, the true leader of the Landkeepers, a female Landkeeper stumbles into the Gramophone Cafe without being invited. It turns out Mammon was directing their thoughts, and she's now completely directionless, so Kayleigh decides to nickname her Sunny and rehabilitate her]].
318* EmptyShell: [[spoiler:They're superficially human but are actually husks created by the Archangel Mammon to spread greed throughout New Wirral]].
319* MustBeInvited: The Landkeepers are implied to work like this as the citizens are told not to invite them into their house. The end implies that this is a result of [[spoiler:Mammon controlling them as after he's defeated, one of them enters the Gramophone Cafe uninvited]].
320* ShipTease: [[spoiler:Sunny has one with Eugene. If the player has completed Sunny's quest and Eugene's Relationship Level 5 event but does not romance Eugene, the two will be seen going on a date together in Harbourtown.]]
321* SignatureMon: Practically all of them use the Springheel and Pawndead lines.

324[[folder:The Mourningtown Cult]]
325->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KayleighMcKee (Dorian), Creator/JenniferLosi (Jacqueline)
326A group of humans that have set up their own society away from Harbourtown in order to worship the Archangels as god. Their leader is Dorian, a charismatic man with divine ambitions.
327----
328* AffablyEvil: The leader of the Mourningtown cult, Dorian. While all of his followers wear brown hooded robes and speak of the Archangels with reverence, he's dressed like a HawaiianShirtedTourist and has a more casual way of speaking, but he's still willing and eager to manipulate others for a chance at gaining godlike power.
329* ApocalypseCult: They're a group of cultists in New Wirral that have made a settlement called Mourningtown and worship the Archangels, which are established as very dangerous entities.
330* ArchEnemy: Kayleigh's personal quest is to deal with them directly, because [[spoiler:she used to be the right-hand girl of its leader Dorian before realizing how messed up the cult was and escaping]].
331* BriefcaseFullOfMoney: One is present in the cabin in the very back of the compound. Presumably it's Dorian's -- evidently he doesn't subscribe to the PracticalCurrency system that the rest of New Wirral uses.
332* DoppelgangerReplacementLoveInterest: [[spoiler:Dorian has replaced Kayleigh, his former #2, with Jacqueline, a girl that looks identical to Kayleigh but with a different hairstyle.]]
333* HasAType: Dorian probably does, considering [[spoiler:after Kayleigh leaves the Mourningtown cult, he replaces her with Jacqueline, who not only looks nearly identical, but also seems to have a very similar personality in the post-game]].
334* KilledMidSentence: [[spoiler:Dorian, in a variant. While he technically gets all the way through his last sentence before getting vaporized, the text box automatically closes without any input. [[FreezeFrameBonus It's fast enough that most players won't get the chance to read the whole thing without taking a well-timed screenshot or watching a pausable video]].]]
335* TooDumbToLive: [[spoiler:Dorian tries to win the favor of [[EldritchAbomination Mourningstar]] even after being warned again and again by Kayleigh that [[EvilIsNotAToy it's a horrible idea]]. He gets reduced to a black mark on the floor for his troubles.]]

339!!The Archangels
340
341[[folder:As a whole]]
342* AngelicAbomination: When you think of an Archangel, [[OurMonstersAreWeird would you normally imagine]] a StopMotion skeleton, a satyr with a papery, UnmovingPlaid body, or a caped tentacle monster animated like an old inkblot cartoon? What really cements this is the Archangels [[NonStandardCharacterDesign intentionally clashing with the artstyle of the rest of the game]], to get across just how powerful and unusual they are.
343* AnthropomorphicPersonification: Angels act as the embodiment of various concepts birthed from humanity (for example, Morgante embodies Rebellion and Aleph embodies Conquest), and so even if they are destroyed, they will return for as long as these concepts exist.
344* ArtifactName: The name of "Archangels" comes from a time when humans thought the monsters of New Wirral were [[OurAngelsAreDifferent angels]], with the title of Archangel being given to the most powerful and incomprehensible among them. [[DoingInTheWizard As people learned more about the so-called angels]] and figured out ways to deal with them, they seemed a lot more mundane and started becoming known as monsters instead; however, the Archangels kept their name because they're still not well understood. Due to all of this, the connection can be a bit lost on the newer arrivals to New Wirral.
345* AsLongAsThereIsEvil: [[spoiler:Upon Aleph's defeat, the player character wonders if he's been killed for good, but Ms. Amber informs them that as the Archangels are born of human ideas, so long that people continue to find ways to kill each other, as the embodiment of Conquest, Aleph will always come back eventually.[[note]]Sure, the concept of conquest may be (mostly) on its way out in ''[[RealLife our]]'' [[RealLife world]], but New Wirral pulls from a multitude of dimensions. Who knows how many worlds are out there where people still engage in constant squabbles over territory?[[/note]]]]
346* BeefGate: While you have some control over your defensive options, your offensive options against an Archangel boil down to "hit it until it dies".
347* BrownNoteBeing: Everyone who sees one mentions how painful they are to even look at or be near.
348* ClapYourHandsIfYouBelieve: Near the end of the main quest, [[spoiler:Aleph reveals that the Archangels were created from the manifest desires of humans, such as greed and a fascination over extinction events]].
349* ContractualBossImmunity: Downplayed. They are primarily immune to stat debuffs. While they are still vulnerable to status ailments such as poison and berserk, they all come with the Status Resistance sticker, which reduces the damage they take from DamageOverTime effects.
350* TheHeartless: Some of the Archangels are based on negative traits of humanity such as greed, zealotry, and egotism. The Nowhere Monarch is the bluntest about it, claiming it will consume Meredith’s emptiness before its battle.
351* JerkassGods: The Archangels are the closest thing to gods on New Wirral, and to put it bluntly, a lot of them are ''dicks''. Given that they all [[AnthropomorphicPersonification embody aspects of humanity]], however, it's entirely plausible that the ones we happen to see and interact with are mostly comprised of [[EmbodimentOfVice the ones that embody negative qualities such as ignorance, consumerism, escapism, and conquest]], and most of [[EmbodimentOfVirtue the embodiments of positive qualities such as rationality, generosity, love, and peace]] [[TheGhost just happened to be absent from the events of the game]].
352* {{Leitmotif}}: [[https://youtu.be/lP2-68Y0onM?si=0zX9Tg-xm_AhXogU Same Old Story]]. A few Archangels have their own themes, however.
353* LimitBreak: When an Archangel reaches maximum AP, they'll spend them all on their Angelic Attack, an incredibly powerful move that ''will'' devastate you if you don't prepare for it.
354* MyRulesAreNotYourRules:
355** Archangels don't spend AP when using regular moves. They'll continuously gather up until they max out, at which point they're all spent on an [[LimitBreak Angelic Attack]].
356** Archangels are still limited in how many actions they can take per turn, but they get to make two moves per turn instead of one.
357** They also are [[NoSell simply immune to stat reductions]].
358** With a few exceptions, they're typeless, in a game with no other typeless enemies.
359* NonElemental: Archangels are typeless, with the sole exceptions of [[spoiler:Shining Kuneko, who is Astral-type]] and Helia, who is Fire-type. With that said, most of them do have movesets (up to and including their [[LimitBreak Angelic Attacks]]) that specialize in a few of the types, making it a good idea to bring cassettes that won't suffer type matchup debuffs from the attacks of the Archangel you're fighting.
360* NonStandardCharacterDesign: To highlight just how much of an AngelicAbomination the Archangels are, they always appear in a different art style to contrast the pixel art used for humans and lesser monsters, such as 3D or an animated drawing.
361* OlympusMons: Archangels are AngelicAbomination monsters that are considered to be far above regular monsters.
362* OminousVisualGlitch: Whenever the player is in the presence of an Archangel, the user interface starts glitching and there are flashes of television static.
363* OurAngelsAreDifferent: Kayleigh says that at one time, everybody in New Wirral thought that the monsters were angels and the more powerful mons were called Archangels. In current times, people know that the mons aren't angels, but the most powerful abominations are still called Archangels.

366[[folder:A01: Morgante]]
367[[quoteright:269:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/morgante_2.png]]
368 [[caption-width-right:269:'''[[RebelliousSpirit Spirit of Rebellion]]''']]
369-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/TaraPlatt
370The Archangel of the Harbourtown Station, and the incarnation of rebellion. Once a powerful being, she was shattered to pieces trying to protect her child Mordread, and is a shadow of her former self. Her encounter with the player leads to a mutually beneficial relationship.
371----
372* AllYourPowersCombined: At the end of the main quest, [[spoiler:to counter Aleph Null, the player and all of the party members whose personal quests have been completed fuse together to form Morgante Gestalt (A03 in the bestiary), with every character contributing one unique battle skill]].
373* ArchEnemy: To Aleph, [[spoiler:motivated by the death of Mordread]]. As the Archangels of Conquest and Rebellion respectively, they are also naturally diametrically opposed.
374* BlueAndOrangeMorality: In the post-game, [[spoiler:she fights the player for no reason other than it being in her nature to rebel]].
375* ClippedWingAngel: A more literal version than most, as she's an Archangel. Despite being first encountered at level 100, she is in a broken state and with low enough health to be taken out by a low-level fusion despite [[ScratchDamage only taking 1 damage from each attack]].
376* FaceHeelTurn: [[spoiler:After defeating Aleph and accessing the post-game, she can be fought in the Harbourtown Station in her repaired form (A02 in the bestiary). She notes that the player should have expected this, because she is the Archangel of Rebellion and it is natural for her to align herself against others.]]
377* IFightForTheStrongestSide: [[spoiler: [[InvertedTrope Her M.O. is the opposite]]. Aside from [[YouKilledMyFather personal reasons]], Morgante opposes Aleph being the incarnation of rebellion to Aleph's embodiment of conquest and is willing to work with the heroes to fight him. After he's slain, she turns against them, now that they became the new king of the hill.]]
378* MyDeathIsOnlyTheBeginning: [[spoiler:Twice. First, defeating her in her injured form in the subway binds her to you. Defeating her again in the post-game reveals that she can count as a "sacrifice" to resurrect the other defeated Archangels.]]
379* OneHitKill: [[spoiler:When playing as the Morgante Gestalt, they have the skill "Coda Morgana", which has a base power of 10,000 (for reference, the strongest skills in the game have a base power of 200), which in practice makes the skill more than powerful enough to kill anything in the game (Aleph Null included) in one hit. When fighting Morgante as a post-game boss, she reprises this skill as her Angelic Attack, which hits for obscene damage numbers that no character has a hope of surviving a direct hit from.]]
380* RelationshipReveal: [[spoiler:In the post-game, the Mer-Line reveals that Morgante and Aleph used to be lovers, and Mordread was their son.]]
381* SymbioticPossession: After defeating Archangel Morgante, the remains of her essence attaches to the main protagonist, no longer threatening their life and instead giving them additional directions on how to leave New Wirral and return home as she regains power.
382* TokenGoodTeammate: She's the only Archangel (if you don't count [[spoiler:The Amber Lodge and the Mer-Line, who are TheUnfought]]) who is not a raging megalomaniac and is firmly on the heroes' side. [[spoiler:At least in the main story, that is, since in the post-game she turns against the heroes and tries to revive the other Archangels.]]
383* ZeroEffortBoss: It's impossible to lose the initial fight against Morgante. Her attacks can't knock you out, and while your attacks can only deal ScratchDamage, her HP is low enough that you can chip through the rest of it in several turns. [[spoiler:Very much averted in the post-game rematch, which gives her all of the moves you had access to as the Morgante Gestalt, including her powered-up [[OneHitKill Coda Morgana]].]]

388[[caption-width-right:341:'''[[MarionetteMaster Master of Puppets]]''']]
389The Archangel whose Station is under New Wirral Park, and the incarnation of puppetry.
390----
391* BorrowinSamedi: A skeleton-esque puppet adorning a top hat who fights alongside what are functionally {{Voodoo Doll}}s.
392* CreepilyLongArms: He has arms so long that he can rest his hands on the ground when standing upright.
393* DemBones: He takes the form of a giant, toxic, puppeteer skeleton rendered in claymation.
394* EvilPuppeteer: It can make dolls out of its clay-like body, and also deems the player characters "new toys".
395* MeaningfulName: As the embodiment of humanity's desire to create effigies of themselves, it's fitting that the Archangel that resembles a massive stop-motion puppet is named ''Poppet''ox.
396* PerversePuppet: A puppet-like Archangel who's thrilled to make "glove puppets" out of the heroes.
397* PrimalStance: Its default pose is standing on all fours, which combined with its long arms and bent legs makes it very creepy.
398* PsychopathicManchild: Sees humans as new toys to play with whether they like it or not, and has a tanturn after losing over its "killed dolls".
399* PuzzleBoss: It doesn't have any particularly powerful or annoying attacks, but it uses two "Effigies" in battle, which will [[AttackReflector reflect your damage back to you]] if you hit them. It switches places with one of them ([[NoticeThis highlighted by a spotlight]]) at the start of a turn.
400* StopMotion: He is animated in this fashion, being a clay puppet.
401* UncannyValley: If Kayleigh is brought along to his boss fight, she'll note how creepy [[WideEyesAndShrunkenIrises his eyes]] are. That's not even getting into his long limbs and PrimalStance.

404[[folder:A05: Mourningstar]]
405[[quoteright:204:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mourningstar.png]]
406 [[caption-width-right:204:'''[[SatanicArchetype Serpent God]]''']]
407The Archangel whose Station was buried beneath Mourningtown until its cultists dug their way to it, and the incarnation of religious devotion.
408----
409* AllTakeAndNoGive: It's [[BrutalHonesty remarkably up-front]] about its utter lack of interest in [[DealWithTheDevil bargains]] to the witnesses of [[spoiler:its ruthless murder of Dorian]].
410-->"You do not take from me. You only give."
411* BadBoss: It offers no boons to its worshippers and servants, other than not being destroyed for displeasing it. [[spoiler:When Dorian tries to strike a more-or-less mutually-beneficial deal with it, it's insulted enough to kill him on the spot.]]
412* BeliefMakesYouStupid: Lightly implied by ''[[BadBoss this]] [[SatanicArchetype thing]]'' being the embodiment of religious devotion. However, it's just as likely if not more so to be a TakeThat against [[{{Cult}} cults]] and [[TheFundamentalist fundamentalism]] ''specifically'', without any admonishment against [[GodBeforeDogma religious people who don't allow their religion to consume their lives and drive them to oppress others]].
413* BoltOfDivineRetribution: Its Angelic Attack, Judgement, is themed as one. Notably, it's specifically a Lightning-type move instead of being typeless like most Archangel-related moves.
414* DealWithTheDevil: [[DefiedTrope Defied]]. Despite being worshipped by a cult, Mourningstar is completely uninterested in bargaining or making deals. Whatever it wants, [[AllTakeAndNoGive it simply takes by force or coercion]] -- and it bluntly declares this [[spoiler:after it zaps Dorian for trying to strike a deal with it]].
415* EvilIsNotAToy: Dorian, the leader of the Mourningtown cult, plans to bargain with Mourningstar in order to gain divine power. [[spoiler:It immediately vaporizes him when he tries.]]
416* GruesomeGoat: Its false head is that of a goat, which adds to the [[SatanicArchetype satanic image]] of the Archangel.
417* {{Retraux}}: [[AllThereInTheManual The art book states]] that Mourningstar was stylized to look like a boss from earlier 3D RPG games from [[MediaNotes/TheFifthGenerationOfConsoleVideoGames the 32/64-bit era]], which had a low polygon count and [[OurMonstersAreWeird rather abstract visuals]].
418* SatanicArchetype: Several of its attributes bring to mind Lucifer's role in story of the Garden of Eden:
419** It has a false goat head and angelic wings similar to several depictions of Lucifer
420** It's actual head in the form of a snake is a reference to the snake that tempted Adam and Eve.
421** One of its moves, Temptation, brings to mind the forbidden fruit from the tree of knowledge.
422* SnakesAreSinister: Part of its body is a white snake, with the snake's head being its actual head.
423* TemptingApple: Has a SecretArt, Temptation, which creates a tree (effectively a Plant-type Wall) that blocks attacks and drops apples when struck that either heal or poison the attacker.

428 [[caption-width-right:286:'''[[EmotionEater King of Nothing]]''']]
429The Archangel whose Station is built into the abandoned Falldown Mall, and the incarnation of consumerism.
430----
431* CombatTentacles: One of its attacks involves slapping the opponent with a striped tentacle. The same tentacle can also be seen on [[spoiler:Aleph Null]].
432* EyesDoNotBelongThere: It has an eye the size of its torso underneath its matted fur.
433* FlunkyBoss: Uses the move Call to Arms to summon minions called Nowhere Peasants, and throws them at you in their [[LimitBreak Angelic Attack]], Bomb Voyage.
434* InkblotCartoonStyle: As the embodiment of media consumerism, its design evokes the feel of something from an old cartoon.
435* ShoutOut: His visual style is a reference to the 1968 WesternAnimation/YellowSubmarine cartoon; this was confirmed by the developers [[https://www.reddit.com/r/cassettebeasts/comments/1b9aez8/question_about_one_of_the_bosses/ktwdb7b/ here]].

443* {{Expy}}: An EldritchAbomination appearing as an ever-shifting geometric shape classified as an angel. [[Franchise/NeonGenesisEvangelion Ramiel, where's your laser?]]

450The Archangel of Cherry Cross Station, and the incarnation of ego.
451----
452* AliceAllusion: In order to get through her station, the player must repeatedly grow and shrink by eating a cake or drinking from a bottle, respectively. Alice herself resembles a blonde woman with a Queen of Hearts motif, and she has the power to grow and shrink in battle.
453* CompositeCharacter: She combines Alice's figure and hair with the Queen of Hearts' heart motif, along with her egotism.
454* ItsAllAboutMe: Alice's main theme as an Archangel, being the incarnation of ego.
455* StanceSystem: She has two [[SecretArt exclusive moves]] that inflict unique status effects on herself, and are used every turn:
456** Eat Me, which inflicts Inflated, [[MightyGlacier boosting her offenses and defenses while decreasing her evasion]].
457** Drink Me, which inflicts Deflated, [[FragileSpeedster increasing her evasion but dropping her offenses and defenses]].

463A trickster who disguises himself as the spirit of Viola's brother Sebastian, and then taunts her to explore the wreck of the ship Titania and find the Bard Street Station within to get the answers she truly seeks. He is the incarnation of theatrics.
464----
465* GoMadFromTheRevelation: His bio mentions that he was driven mad by the realization that he's a creation of humans, and this causes him to have a hatred against humanity.
466* InjuredVulnerability: His Night Mare ability deals a fair amount of damage to characters that are [[ForcedSleep put to sleep]], which he also specializes in. It will fail if the character isn't asleep.
467* PublicDomainCharacter: He's based on the Shakespearian interpretation used in ''Theatre/AMidsummerNightsDream'', also known as Puck, who served the queen of fairies Titania.

473The true leader of the Landkeepers, residing in their headquarters rather than a Station of its own. It is the incarnation of capitalism.

475* EarlyBirdCameo: One of the Landkeeper offices features a partial image of Mammon on the whiteboard.
476* FlunkyBoss: Can use the move Margin Call to summon Jormungold as teammates.
477* LoadBearingBoss: After its defeat, the Landkeeper headquarters collapses and can't be entered again [[spoiler:until the player unlocks Archangel rematches by defeating Morgante again in the post-game]].
478* MeaningfulName: Fitting for the incarnation of capitalism, it is named after [[DemonLordsAndArchdevils the demon]] associated with the [[SevenDeadlySins deadly sin]] of {{greed}}.
479* SignificantNameOverlap: Shares a name with Chairman Mammon from ''VideoGame/LennasInception'', as both embody the vice of greed and have an undead-themed army.

485The Archangel of Aldgrave Tomb Station, and the incarnation of the fear of death.
486----
487* KonamiCode: The station where Archangel Lamento Mori resides has a series of similar-looking caverns that will warp the player back to start if they take a wrong turn. After walking in circles a few times, notes will drop from the ceiling that state that the correct way to go is up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right. However, it plays with expectations, such as the second "down" meaning [[spoiler:to drop down a pit instead of taking the south exit]].
488* PrematurelyMarkedGrave: The first room of its cavern maze has tombstones with the names of the player and their current partner. Their epitaphs are also intentionally mocking, such as stating that Eugene was "All talk and no action", and Kayleigh "Followed a fool to her doom, [[spoiler:not even for the first time]]".

496* CannotTellAJoke: Literally possesses the move "Bad Joke", where it takes one of its turns to tell a joke, usually involving a pun. This has no effect on you or your partner.

508* GeniusLoci: It is a sentient building capable of traveling through space and time that comes to the player's aid after Aleph gets annoyed and decides to shunt them into a different dimension. The woman running it, Ms. Amber, is its "face".
509* TokenGoodTeammate: Is the only named Archangel that is not remotely hostile or obstructive to the player, helping them every time it appears. Though it once worked with Aleph, it has since then come to regret it.

517An enigmatic being once worshipped as a god, who seeks the power of other Archangels to leave New Wirral in order to spread misery across the multiverse. He's also the one responsible for shattering Morgante in order to take her power.
518----
519* AllYourPowersCombined: At the end of the main quest, Aleph, intrigued by the concept of "Fusion" that the protagonists have been using, fuses with all of the Archangels he's collected in order to become Archangel Aleph Null (A15 in the bestiary).
520* ArchEnemy: To Morgante. As the Archangels of Conquest and Rebellion respectively, they are naturally diametrically opposed, but Aleph took their rivalry to a new level when he slew Mordread, their son from earlier in their relationship.
521* AstonishinglyAppropriateAppearance: He wears a red coat similar to what the English military used, and represents conquest.
522* BarrierChangeBoss: The main gimmick for the first phase of his boss fight, where he activates a different elemental coating every turn.
523* BigBad: He is the primary villain of the game's main story, being the one who poses the most direct threat to the player's quest to find their way back home.
524* BodyOfBodies: His [[AllYourPowersCombined Aleph Null form]] is a haphazard amalgamation of elements from all of the other Archangels[[note]]Archangels who haven't been defeated yet don't become part of Aleph Null, but the sun-shaped adornment may represent the sun-themed Helia, who can't be fought until the post-game[[/note]]: Robin Goodfellow's head wearing Babelith's crown and some of Heckahedron's geometry act as shoulder pads, Babelith's moon is held in its right hand, fragments of Mammon's collage face and Alice's dress adorn its chest, its wings are one of Mourningstar's actual wings and one of Lamento Mori's bony appendages, its tail is patterned after Nowhere Monarch's arms, and it's wearing Poppetox's top hat on top of the sun-shaped adornment surrounding Aleph's triangular head.
525* BroughtToYouByTheLetterS: His current name and his past names as historic/mythologic rulers all start with the letter A.
526* CorruptedCharacterCopy: He is a villainous take on Myth/KingArthur from Myth/ArthurianLegend. Arthur is one of the names Aleph claims to have been referred to; his Angelic Attack, Deus Ex Calibur, is named after {{Excalibur}}, King Arthur's legendary sword; Aleph's troupe is referred to as the "Round Table", King Arthur's famed table where he and his knights congregate; according to Aleph Null's bestiary entry, legends are written about Aleph's 6th-century stint as a British monarch. In addition, Aleph has a mentor, The Mer-Line, who is named after Myth/{{Merlin}}, who is also from the Arthurian mythos. However, instead of being portrayed as a good king, Aleph is instead a conqueror who causes misery across reality.
527* DevelopersForesight: Since he absorbs every Archangel after their defeat at your hands, the battle against [[spoiler:Aleph Null]] will skip any segment corresponding to an Archangel you haven't fought.
528* EvilCannotComprehendGood: At the game's climax, Aleph is thrown off when the heroes reject his offer to spare their worlds if they allow him and his new troupe freedom to devastate other worlds besides their own homes.
529* FauxAffablyEvil: Aleph speaks in a polite and gentlemanly tone, but he is a multi-dimensional warmonger, and an unpleasant one at that. Notably, he makes it a priority to invade the heroes' worlds after they refuse his deal because the worlds that birthed such courageous individuals [[{{Sadist}} will be the most fun for him to break]].
530* FinalBoss: He's the final challenge of the main quest. The credits roll and the PlayableEpilogue and NewGamePlus unlock after his defeat.
531* HumanoidAbomination: Out of all the Archangels, he is the most humanoid, even being rendered as a regular sprite unlike the others which have [[NonStandardCharacterDesign more exotic art styles]]. The giveaway of his true nature is his triangular mirror head.
532* IHaveManyNames: When introducing himself, he claims to have also gone by the names Arthur, Alexander, and Agamemnon, all of which are famous kings in legends or history.
533* TheLeader: Of the Archangels. Leadership and rulership are just kind of his "thing".
534* LiteralGenie: When you tell Aleph you're trying to find a way off of New Wirral, he sends you away himself... to a dead world that he'd destroyed long ago. If it weren't for the Amber Lodge happening to stop by that world, that would have been the end of you.
535* LogicalWeakness: His triangular head is a portal through which he can send anyone anywhere, even to other dimensions. He can't send himself, however, because he can't fit his entire body through his own head, leaving him stranded in New Wirral. He used to get around this by travelling in The Amber Lodge.
536* MagicMirror: His head is one, which in his case serves as a transdimensional portal.
537* NeverMyFault: His last troupe fell apart after [[OffingTheOffspring he killed his son Mordread]]. Aleph speaks of that incident as the point his team became "[[{{Understatement}} a tad dysfunctional]]".
538* NonHumanHead: Aleph has a humanoid body, but with a floating, reflective triangle for a head.
539* OffingTheOffspring: The main story implies that he killed his own son, Mordread, as Morgante talks to Mordread's casket in Night's Bridge Station that justice will come to Aleph, and The Mer-Line reveals that Aleph and Morgante had a son once. ''Pier of the Unknown'' confirms this, with Gwen revealing that Aleph slayed his own kin.
540* RedBaron: He's also known as "The Red King of Conquest".
541* RelationshipReveal: In the post-game, the Mer-Line reveals that Aleph and Morgante used to be lovers, and Mordread was their son.
542* ResurrectiveImmortality: Even after his defeat, it's implied that [[AsLongAsThereIsEvil so long as humans are interested in conquest, he will return at some point]].
543* SealedEvilInACan: He's just as trapped on New Wirral as everyone else. It's implied the Mer-Line has trapped everyone specifically to stop Aleph from escaping.
544* SeenItAll: He admits during the final battle that he has this viewpoint, being an ex-dimension-hopping and ageless abomination. [[WowingCthulhu He is genuinely surprised and impressed with the heroes' newfound fusion powers]], going as far as trying it himself with his new team.
545* SequentialBoss: You fight him three times in a row towards the end of the main quest: first in a standard Archangel fight, then with all your recruited party members backing you up against Aleph Null, and finally, as Morgante Gestalt.
546* TraintopBattle: The FinalBoss battle against him takes place atop the Mer-Line's train as he's trying to escape into the multiverse.
547* VillainousBreakdown: It's brief, but when the heroes reject Aleph's offer prior to his fight, his tone changes from collected and smug to shock and frustration. It's noteworthy in that it's the only time in the game Aleph is furious.
548* WalkingSpoiler: His motivations and true power aren't fully revealed until the game's intended final dungeon.
549* WarGod: The incarnation of conquest who was worshipped as a god during his multiple campagins throughout the multiverse.
550* YouWillBeSpared: At the end of the main quest, upon the party revealing the way out of New Wirral, he states he'll gladly spare their own universes in exchange for letting him and the Archangels leave to torment all the others. When the party gives chase, he then changes his mind, deciding that the dimensions that produced such strong-willed individuals will be the most fun to break.

556The manifestation of the process of Fusion itself.
557----
558* ExactWords: She's the very process of Fusion itself, not just between people in monster form. Nuclear fusion within stars, cellular fusion within the human body, all of it.
559* FalseCause: [[spoiler:The player character assumes that Helia is behind the increase of rogue fusions; however, she merely represents fusion that is already happening. Aside from the unstable Anathema that scientists created on her behalf, she didn't do anything.]]

567The interdimensional transit system used by the Archangels.
568----
569* ArcWelding: A lot of characters in ''VideoGame/LennasInception'' are baffled by the [[spoiler:train tracks all over and wonder where the train is]]. There are a set of [[InGameNovel in-game novels]] that have a third modern setting with Cassette Beast Technology, which ends with [[spoiler:The Train Archangel]] approaching Earth.
570* GeniusLoci: Overlapping with SentientVehicle: The Mer-Line is an Archangel that takes the form of an entire railway system -- tunnels, trains, and all, and they are implied to have an unspecified degree of sentience and deliberation in their actions. [[spoiler:The post-game reveals they are actively responsible for generating the Rogue Fusions, as well as preventing anyone from leaving until Aleph was defeated.]]
571* GreaterScopeVillain: [[spoiler:Though Aleph is the one who directly poses a threat to you, your worlds, and your ability to travel home in peace, it is the Mer-Line themself that is responsible for New Wirral's very existence, as well as you and everyone else being stranded on it.]]
572* MeaningfulName: Is named after Myth/{{Merlin}} of Myth/ArthurianLegend, the magician of supernatural origin who mentored Arthur, and a prophet capable of reading omens of the future -- [[spoiler:both of these things correlate to the Mer-Line's seeing Aleph as their "student", as well as their own premonitions of an unforeseen future challenge for humanity]].
573* TheUnfought: Is an Archangel themself, and [[spoiler:responsible for kicking off the game's initial scenario and creating the world you're in, but is never fought in any form]].
574* WellIntentionedExtremist: [[spoiler:Is the one responsible for the increase in Rogue Fusions, as well as the one populating New Wirral with both man and monster alike. They prevent you from leaving the island until you defeat Aleph in order to determine that humanity can overcome its urge for conquest, in preparation for an unknown future threat. They also refuse to get rid of the Rogue Fusions, believing it is important that other humans get stronger from the life-or-death situations brought about by their existence in the same way that you did.]]

585* {{Leitmotif}}: Instead of the usual Archangel theme, she has her own theme: [[https://youtu.be/DewpbrM67nE?si=4cNUJ3tYxL6kawMt Your Inception]], an arrangement of her game's title theme.

602-->'''Voiced by:''' Bronwen Price
603The Archangel of Brightside Pier. The incarnation of illusion, she is an ancient Archangel who has a fascination with human culture. In human form, she manifests as Gwen, the proprietor of Brightside Pier.
604----
605* FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse: Gwen creates the Infernal Engines as an attempt to replace her lost friends after the disbandment of Aleph's court, which she was once part of. However, your partner comments that her loneliness does not excuse experimenting on humans by trying to turn humans into Archangels.
606* GracefulLoser: After you defeat her, she immediately surrenders, and promises to stop her experiments to turn humans into Archangels.
607* IntriguedByHumanity: She has a great interest in humans, their culture, and their creations, and locates the Brightside Pier near New Wirral so she can get close to humans.
608* {{Manchild}}: Gwenivar's bestiary entry describes her as an ancient Archangel whose fascination with human culture is childlike.
609* NonIronicClown: Gwen looks downright adorable as far as clowns go... in human form, that is. In her true Archangel form, she looks like a deformed balloon that barely resembles a clown with one arm and one wing.
610* WalkingSpoiler: It is very difficult to talk about Gwen without spoiling the fact that she not only creates the Infernal Engines from humans, but also she herself is actually an Archangel in human form and was once part of Aleph's troupe.

622Morgante and Aleph's son. Was killed by Aleph, setting off the conflict between him and Morgante. Rests inside a coffin at Night's Bridge Station.
623----
624* DeaderThanDead: Whatever Aleph did to him appears to have circumvented the ResurrectiveImmortality that Archangels usually have, though maybe he just hasn't had enough time to revive.
625* MeaningfulName: He's named after Mordred from [[Myth/KingArthur Arthurian legend]], and is the son of Morgante, who is named after Morgan le Fay, and Aleph, who is inspired by King Arthur himself.

635[[folder:In general]]
636The creatures listed in the folders ahead are the monsters that the player can encounter in the wild and record into tapes in order to transform into them for combat. Different monsters inhabit different areas all over New Wirral.
637----
638* ActuallyFourMooks: When you run into a monster in the overworld, the ensuing fight will generally be against two or even three monsters.
639* ElementalRockPaperScissors: Monsters of different species have different elemental typing, with bootleg monsters being potentially of any type regardless of their species. This results in several elemental interactions, where attacks of certain types will cause buffs, debuffs or even type changes upon hitting monsters of certain other types.
640* FusionDance: Rogue Fusions, bosses that randomly spawn at fixed points in the world map, are the result of two wild monsters combining into one.
641* MultiMookMelee: Fusion Swarms, special encounters that randomly spawn at fixed points in the world map; in these encounters, you fight your way through 5 regular monsters followed by a Rogue Fusion.
642* OurAngelsAreDifferent: Early residents of New Wirral thought these creatures were angels due to how strange and incomprehensible they seemed. Unlike with the Archangels, who are still perceived as otherworldly, people eventually learned more about these creatures and how to deal with them, so they're simply called monsters now.
643* PaletteSwap: Bootlegs, rare monsters that may be of any type regardless of their species, have their species's usual colors swapped according to the bootleg's typing.
644* PunnyName: A lot of monsters have names that are a play on words referencing the real life objects, creatures and folklore they're inspired by. For instance, Binvader is a garbage ''bin'' that summons allies to launch an ''invasion'', while Scubalrus is a ''walrus'' with ''SCUBA'' gear.

658
659Springheels are Beast-types that love to leap out of dark corners in the night and startle their victims. It has two remasters: Hopskin and Snoopin. Hopskin lures in prey with its big smile and glowing, amber eyes and cuts them with its razor-sharp claws. Its final form is Ripterra, a mass of claw-tipped limbs wrapped in a trenchcoat. Snoopins are master thieves that decorate themselves with trinkets. Their final form is Scampire, which lure prey into their lairs filled with hordes of riches.
660----
661* GentlemanThief: Snoopin steals trinkets, is dressed like an archetypal gentleman, and is named after and inspired by ''Literature/ArseneLupin''.
662* GlassCannon: The entire family is characterized by high offenses and speed contrasted by low defenses and HP.
663* HighlyVisibleNinja: Snoopin becomes this over time, as they wear any trinkets they steal according to the bestiary. The more they wear, the better they are at stealing.
664* NonElemental: They're Beast-types, which is the closest thing to a "neutral" type, since it only has one interaction.
665* SpringHeeledJack: The Springheel is a bat-like monster based on Jack. Its entry in the bestiary mentions the Victorian character, hinting that he might have been a Springheel.
666* WingsDoNothing: Scampire's bestiary entry says it has recently gained the ability to fly, but speculates that it might not use its wings to do so.
667[[/folder]]
668
669[[folder:#006 - #010: Carniviper, Masquerattle, Jormungold, Mardiusa, and Aeroboros]]
670Carnivipers are Poison-type snake monsters that wear grinning carnival masks. They can be remastered into Masquerattle, which is so creepy that its face can't lure in prey. It has three remasters: Jormungold, whose wings help it slither faster; Mardiusa, a collection of snakes wearing a ball gown; and the Air-type Aeroboros, which cycles winds through its ring-shaped body.
671----
672* BizarreAlienLocomotion: Downplayed for Jormungold, which still slithers, but it uses its wings to slither faster rather than use them for flight.
673* BlowYouAway: Aeroboros is an Air-type, and is said to use blasts of wind to knock its opponents off their feet. It can only be obtained by remastering a Masquerattle with the Air-type sticker Zephyr equipped.
674* BodyOfBodies: Mardiusa is a collection of small snakes that are part of a HiveMind. The trope is played lighter than usual, since they're mostly just working together so they can dress up for a MasqueradeBall.
675* ComMons: Carniviper and Masquerattle are found all over the southern half of New Wirral.
676* FeatheredSerpent: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. Carniviper's mask has a single feather, while Masquerattle's mask has three. Aeroboros's ring-shaped body has four small, feathery wings attached to it.
677* GlassCannon: Most of this family is characterized by higher speed and offenses and lower defensive stats. The big exception is Aeroboros who, while sporting [[SquishyWizard very low Melee stats]], has high HP and Ranged Defense.
678* HiveMind: Mardiusa is described as a collection of tiny snakes with a unified goal of dressing like they're on their way to a ball.
679* MagicKnight: Carniviper, Masquerattle and Jormungold each boast equally high melee and ranged offenses.
680* {{Medusa}}: Mardiusa looks like a gorgon from Greek mythology, and is one of only two monsters that can use the Stony Look sticker, which inflicts the [[TakenForGranite Petrified]] status.
681* {{Ouroboros}}: Aeroboros is inspired by this, as indicated by their name and confirmed by the bestiary, being a snake that forms a ring shape by biting their own tail.
682* PoisonousPerson: The entire family save for Aeroboros are Poison-types, and they're based on venomous snakes.
683* SnakesAreSinister: Carniviper's bestiary entry says it's very territorial and will attack anything and anyone.
684* SquishyWizard: Aeroboros has atrociously low Melee Attack and lackluster Melee Defense, but is outstanding in all other stats.
685* {{Tsuchinoko}}: The second page of Carniviper's bio compares it to the tsuchinoko, being a snake with sharp fangs and a flat body.

688[[folder:#011 - #013: Traffikrab, Weevilite, and Lobstacle]]
689Traffikrabs are Plastic-type crab monsters that started wearing traffic cones after they washed up on New Wirral's shores. It has two remasters: the offensive Weevilite, which stuns prey with its traffic light head, and the defensive Lobstacle, which is very patient.
690----
691* GiantEnemyCrab: While the art style makes their size unclear, Traffikrab's title is "big traffic cone crab", and it definitely has the enemy part down.
692* LightningBruiser: Weevilite specialises in ranged attack and speed, but its defences are no slouch either.
693* MascotMook: Traffikrab is on the PC version's desktop icon.
694* MightyGlacier: Lobstacle specialises in defence, but its attacking stats are both a respectable 120. While it's not the slowest monster, its speed is underwhelming in comparison.
695* SecretArt: Traffic Jam, which lowers the Speed of every other monster in the field, both allies and enemies.
696* TokenHeroicOrc: Magikrab, a Traffikrab with a pointy wizard had instead of a traffic cone. It's capable of speech and works with the Mer-Line, helping the player and their allies quickly travel across New Wirral. [[spoiler:The player can get their own Magikrabs by remastering an Astral bootleg Traffikrab, with their own bestiary entry at #000.]]

699[[folder:#014 - #018: Candevil, Malchemy, Miasmodeus, Vendemon, and Gumbaal]]
700Candevils are grinning, Beast-type imps who can create hard-boiled sweets from their bodies. Its remasters are the Poison-type, potion-brewing Malchemy; and Vendemon, a Metal-type that wears a gumball machine as armour. Their respective final forms are Miasmodeus, a witch that flies on a lollipop broomstick and attacks with its potions; and Gumbaal, which has fused with its armour and spits out elemental spheres.

706* LongRangeFighter: The Candevil family is geared towards ranged attacks, in contrast to the more melee-focused Bansheep family.
707* {{Lunacy}}: Miasmodeus's lollipop is in the shape of a crescent moon, and sure enough, they naturally learn the Astral-type move Moonshine.
708* PoisonousPerson: Malchemy and Miasmodeus are Poison-type. The former is said to be a result of strange internal chemical changes, which also compel it to make potions.
709* PunBasedCreature: Both of the final forms of the line have names consisting of a pun with the name of a common demon, specifically Miasmodeus is a portmanteau of "miasma" and {{Asmodeus}}, while Gumbaal is a portmanteau of gumball and [[VillainBaal Baal]].
710* SecretArt: The Candevil family has exclusive access to the move Bon Bon Blast, a ranged attack that drops the enemy's evasion, as well as Sugar Rush, which passively increases your speed the less health you have left.
711* StarterMon: Candevil is one of the two beasts that the player can start with, chosen if they prefer "Sweet" over "Spooky".
712* WitchClassic: Miasmodeus resembles a woman, flies on a broomstick, and attacks by throwing potions.

714
715[[folder:#019 - #023: Bansheep, Wooltergeist, Ramtasm, Zombleat, and Capricorpse]]
716Bansheep are floating, bleating sheep, although the bestiary makes a point to say they are not actual ghosts. They can be remastered into the ground-type defensive Zombleat that clings to its own headstone, and the ghostly astral-type Wooltergeist. Respectively, they can be remastered as Capricorpse, a hulking defensive-oriented ram that incorporates its own gravesite into its body, and as Ramtasm, a larger more powerful spectre.
717----
718* AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence: When you remaster Bansheep, you have a choice to "ascend to the afterlife" or "return to the earth". Choosing the former transforms Bansheep into the Astral-type Wooltergeist, who later can remaster again into Ramtasm.
719* CloseRangeCombatant: The Bansheep family specializes in melee attacks, in contrast to the Candevil family which focuses on ranged attacks.
720* DemBones: Capricorpse is a skeletal sheep.
721* DishingOutDirt: Zombleat and Capricorpse are Earth-type.
722* GlassCannon: Wooltergeist and Ramtasm sport higher offensive stats and speed contrasted by weaker defenses.

725* MightyGlacier: Capricorpse has high defenses and solid Melee Attack, but much lower Speed.
726* NonIndicativeName: Capricorpse is a sheep, despite being named after Capricorn, who is a goat.
727* OurBansheesAreLouder: The Bansheep are banshee sheep.
728* RaisingTheSteaks: Zombleat and Capricorpse are zombie sheep.
729* SecretArt: The Bansheep family has exclusive access to the move Battering Ram, a melee attack that drops the enemy's accuracy, as well as Shear Luck, which passively increases your evasion the less health you have left.
730* StarterMon: Bansheep is one of the two beasts that the player can start with, chosen if they prefer "Spooky" over "Sweet".
731* ThanatosGambit: Bansheep remasters by ''dying'', then chooses to either [[AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence "ascend to the afterlife"]] to become [[GhostlyAnimals Wooltergeist]], or "return to the earth" to become [[RaisingTheSteaks Zombleat]].
732* TheUndead: Subverted by Bansheep, who is explicitly stated by the bestiary to be a regular living creature; but played straight with its remasters. If the player chooses to cling to earth, Bansheep is remastered into the Earth-type zombified Zombleat and later Capricorpse. If they choose to pass on, they become the spectral Wooltergeist and later Ramtasm.

734
735[[folder:#024 - #025: Sirenade and Decibelle]]
736Sirenades are Air-type humanoids who amplify their voices with their microphone tails and stereo-speaker wings. It can be remastered into Decibelle, an extremely elusive, dragon-like harpy.
737----
738* DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment: Decibelle's description reads "winged beast with ribbon wings", effectively stating twice that Decibelle has wings.
739* MakeSomeNoise: They're themed around microphones and loudspeakers, and naturally learn sound-based attacks like Sonic Boom, Call for Help, Echolocation, and Change the Record, with Decibelle being the only monster in the game who has the latter in their default level-up learnset.
740* NoIndoorVoice: The bestiary says that Sirenades tend to lack awareness as to whether they're singing too loud for bystanders.
741* OurDragonsAreDifferent: According to the bestiary, early residents of New Wirral would whisper about sightings of white dragons in the clouds, which were likely Decibelles.
742* OurSirensAreDifferent: Sirenade's second bio page says that [[ShownTheirWork the original sirens were bird-women]], not mermaids. It's a humanoid, winged... thing that has an incredibly loud singing voice.
743* SignatureMon: Kayleigh starts with a Sirenade, and has an innate affinity for these monsters.
744* SquishyWizard: Both of them boast strong ranged stats contrasted by much weaker melee stats.

748
749----
750* AsianLionDogs: Dandylion is based on the Chinese guardian lion statues.
751* GateGuardian: According to the bestiary, Dandylions are typically found guarding the entrances to caves. [[spoiler:Specifically, they guard the entrances to the various Mer-Line stations throughout Mt. Wirral; if you see a Dandylion, there's a station nearby.]]
752* OurDragonsAreDifferent: Blossomaw resembles a Chinese dragon with a flower motif, and breathes pollen instead of fire according to the bestiary.
753* {{Planimal}}: Dandylions are flowery lions.
754* RevealingCoverup: The bestiary states that if you see a Dandylion standing guard when there's no cave nearby, it likely means there's something hidden.
755* StoneWall: Both Dandylion and Blossomaw gain primarily defensive or support stickers by ranking up, and their stats focus on defense and HP over offense and speed.

766[[folder:#030 - #033: Dominoth, Wingloom, Mothmanic, and Tokusect]]
767
768----
769* DominoMask: Dominoth's name is taken from the appearance of wearing one of these around its eyes.
770* FragileSpeedster: Tokusect has remarkable Speed and Melee Attack contrasted by frail defensive stats.
771* GlassCannon: Tokusect has high Speed and Melee Attack but weak defenses.
772* MightyGlacier: Wingloom has high defenses and solid offenses but a more conservative Speed stat.
773* TheMothman: They're a line of bipedal moth-like monsters, with Mothmanic taking the most direct inspiration from the myth.
774* SquishyWizard: Mothmanic has outstanding Ranged Attack and solid Ranged Defense, but much weaker melee stats.
775* {{Superhero}}: To contrast the {{Toku}}-themed Tokusect, Wingloom has more in common with western heroes, primarily ''Franchise/{{Batman}}''.
776* {{Toku}}: Tokusect is inspired by this genre, gaining bulgier eyes and and a belt that make it look identical to the original ''Series/KamenRider''.

778
779[[folder:#034 - #036: Squirey, Manispear, and Palangolin]]
780
781----
782* AnimalJingoism: [[ImpliedTrope Implied]]. Muskrateer regularly gets into duels with Squirey, according to the former's bestiary entry, but it's not clear whether they're actually natural enemies or just engage in friendly sparring matches.
783* BloodKnight: The bestiary states that Manispear is a Squirey who gave up to "dark impulses" and now "fights without restraint or self-control". To add to this, Manispear learns the move Bloodlust (which raises offenses when defeating an opponent) by level-up.
784* CombatPragmatist: Manispear, which remasters from a Squirey who gives up honor for victory at all costs.
785* LetsFightLikeGentlemen: Palangolin is themed around this trope, being the remastered form of a Squirey who chooses honor as opposed to victory at all costs. Palangolin's SecretArt, Fair Fight, directly [[InvokedTrope invokes]] the trope by preventing any new status changes from occurring for the next three turns.
786* SecretArt: Palangolin is the only monster with access to the move Fair Fight, which prevents new status effects for the next three turns.
787* TheSquire: Squirey is themed after one, and is able to transform into either ThePaladin by focusing on honor, or a BlackKnight by forsaking it for victory above all else.

789
790[[folder:#037 - #038: Kittelly and [=Cat-5=]]]
791A line of Lightning-type cats with televisions for heads. Kittelly's is an old-fashioned CRT with dials on the side, while Cat-5's is a flatscreen.
792
793----
794* BakenekoAndNekomata: Cat-5 seems to be partially inspired by the nekomata, being a cat-like monster with two tails in the form of twin cables.
795* OurFairiesAreDifferent: Cat-5's bestiary page compares it to the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cat-sìth Cat-sìth]], a fairy that takes the form of a large black cat.
796* PowerCordTail: A variation. Cat-5 has twin cables as tails.
797* ProductionThrowback: As confirmed by the official art book, Cat-5's design is purposely evocative of Catsiel, the television-headed cat Archangel from ''VideoGame/LennasInception''.
798* PunBasedCreature: Cat-5's name is a pun on the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category_5_cable cat 5 ethernet cable]].

804[[folder:#039 - #040: Puppercut and Southpaw]]
805
806----
807* CloseRangeCombatant: Fittingly for their design based on boxing, they have better melee stats than ranged stats.
808[[/folder]]
809
810
811[[folder:#041 - #044: Bulletino, Velocirifle, Artillerex and Gearyu]]
812Bulletino is a Fire-type bullet on legs; recording it gives you the Dash ability. It remasters into Velocirifle, a dinosaur with a gun for a head. In turn, it has two remasters: Artillerex, which has a cannon in its chest, and the Metal-type Gearyu, which uses kinetic energy generated by its spinning gears to power its elemental breath attacks.
813----
814* ActionBomb: Enemy Bulletino come equipped with the Self-Destruct passive move, which causes them to explode when defeated, hitting allies and enemies indiscriminately. You can level up your own Bulletino five times to get the move yourself.
815* ArmlessBiped: Bulletino, Velocirifle, and Artillerex all lack arms.
816* BilingualBonus: Gearyu's name comes from the English word "gear" and the Japanese word "ryu" (龍) meaning "dragon".
817* DinosaursAreDragons: Velocirifle and their default remaster Artillerex are themed after dinosaurs, but Velocirifle's alternate remaster Gearyu is named after the Japanese word for dragon.
818* ForgotAboutHisPowers: If Velocirifle remasters into Gearyu, they lose access to moves with the "Fast" tag like Icicle Dart and Quick Smack. This is the only instance in the game of a monster losing access to moves.
819* FragileSpeedster: Bulletino sports an impressive 200 Speed, coupled with a serviceable (for a first stage monster) Ranged Attack of 100, but very weak defenses. They actually get slower as they remaster until their final forms' Speed is nothing special, but Velocirifle still maintains a {{downplayed|Trope}} version of this stat spread with 160 Speed, 140 Ranged Attack and 100 across all remaining stats.
820* GatlingGood: The turret on Artillerex's belly, which rotates during their attack animation, is based on a Gatling gun. Artillerex's second bestiary page confirms it, as it contains a quick overview of these weapons.
821* MagicKnight: Both of Artillerex's attacking stats stand out at a very high 170.
822* MeteorSummoningAttack: Artillerex's SecretArt is Meteor Barrage, an Earth-type attack that strikes several times against all opponents.
823* SecretArt: Artillerex is the only monster with access to Meteor Barrage, an Earth-type ranged attack that hits all opponents anywhere between 2 and 6 times, 20 power per hit.

827[[folder:#045 - #046, #122: Diveal, Scubalrus and Diveberg]]
828----
829* AnIcePerson: Diveberg is an ice type species who has an iceberg on it's back and naturally learns a good chunk of ice type moves.
830* TheFaceless: While all three have their faces behind the mask, Diveberg has an eerie bright light that makes it so that not even it's eyes can be seen anymore.
831* SuperSwimmingSkills: Recording a Diveal will allow the player to swim across bodies of water in New Wirral.
832[[/folder]]
833
834[[folder:#047 - #048: Nevermort and Apocrowlypse]]
835----
836* CreepyCrows: They're crow-like monsters with plague masks and dark cloaks, and their element is poison. Apocrowlypse gets even creepier by looking like a crow riding an undead horse.
837* TheFaceless: The face hiding inside Nevermort's mask is a mystery, one that according to the bestiary is better left undiscovered.
838* HorsemenOfTheApocalypse: Apocrowlypse takes after the biblical horsemen, both having a name that's a play on "apocalypse" and wearing a belt with a skull on it to create the illusion of riding an undead horse.
839* PlagueDoctor: Nevermort is a bird with a plague doctor mask instead of a beak.
840* ShoutOut: Nevermort's name is a reference to the Literature/TheRaven, where the eponymous raven constantly repeats the word "nevermore"

842
843[[folder:#049 - #050: Clocksley and Robindam]]
844
845----
846* LivingToys: Clocksley is an animate wind-up toy.
847* JustLikeRobinHood: Robindam is Robin Hood mixed with a ''Franchise/{{Gundam}}'', being a green robot archer associated with VigilanteMan Eugene whose in-game bestiary entry states that they pride themselves on keen aim and a keener sense of justice.
848* SecretArt: Spring-Load, a passive status move that turns your melee attacks into ranged attacks, and Suction Cup Dart, a move with [[PowerfulButInaccurate 120 Power but only 75% Accuracy]].
849* SignatureMon: Eugene starts with a Clocksley, and has an innate affinity for these monsters.
850* WindUpKey: Clocksley is a wind-up toy, and the additional info on their bestiary entry provides some facts about such toys.

852
853[[folder:#051: Thwackalope]]
854
855----
856* FearsomeCrittersOfAmericanFolklore: The Thwackalope is a more badass version of the jackalope, a mythical horned rabbit.
857* FragileSpeedster: Sports an impressive 180 Speed, but only 110 in defenses and HP.
858* GlassCannon: Boasts a whopping 180 Melee Attack, but also weak defenses and HP at only 110 each.
859* SecretArt: Pole Vault Assault, a powerful Air-type melee attack that hits twice.
860[[/folder]]
861
862[[folder:#052 - #054: Allseer, Khufo, and Triphinx]]
863
864----
865* BoomStick: {{Implied|Trope}}. Khufo is armed with a battle staff whose blade splits apart during their attack animation, exposing the gem that was previously inside the blade. Between this, the bestiary's claim that the staff was made with "unearthly technologies", and the fact that [[MagicKnight Khufo has equally strong melee and ranged offenses]], it can be surmised that when the staff's blade splits, it allows projectiles to be fired from the gem.
866* EyeOfProvidence: Allseer is the All-Seeing Eye piloting a UFO in a pyramidal cockpit.
867* FlyingSaucer: Allseer is a UFO in the stereotypical disc shape.
868* LightningBruiser: Triphinx boasts a whopping 190 Ranged Attack, with a decent 140 in all other stats save for a [[SquishyWizard pitiful Melee Attack of 50]]. Even then, it can learn Shield Bash and Brace For Impact to target opponents' Melee Defense if needed.
869* MagicKnight: Khufo sports equally strong Melee and Ranged Attack stats with both at 160.
870* ProductionThrowback: Allseer shares design elements with the Archangel Tentaluchus, one of the bosses of ''Lenna's Inception''.
871* SecretArt: Wonderful 7, a strong Astral-type ranged attack that inflicts one of seven status effects at random.
872* ShoutOut: Khufo is designed after the octopus-like aliens described in ''Literature/{{The War Of The Worlds|1898}}'' by Creator/HGWells, while Triphinx is inspired by the tripod machines used by said aliens. Both monsters' bestiary pages cite the book by name.
873* TripodTerror: Triphinx is very much an archetypal three-legged alien walker.
874[[/folder]]
875
876[[folder:#055 - #056: Braxsuit and Flapwoods]]
877
878----
879* SecretArt: Suit Up, which raises both of their defensive stats at once.
880* TheFlatwoodsMonster: [[MeaningfulName As if the name couldn't tell]], they're based on the Flatwoods monster, having small claws, a gliding cloth-like body, and a red face with the shape of the ace of spades.
881* FloatingLimbs: Flapwoods' arms float separately from the rest of it's body.
882[[/folder]]
883
884[[folder:#057 - #058: Sanzatime and Fortiwinx]]
885A family of Earth-type monsters based on hourglasses.
886----
887* MightyGlacier: Both of them have high Melee Attack backed up by solid defenses, but low Speed.
888* SandBlaster: These monsters with the hourglass as their "core" can easily manipulate sands and cast sandstorms.
889* TheSandman: Fortiwinx is based on the Sandman from folklores, and it can learn Hypnotize to put opponents to sleep.
890* TimeMaster: Downplayed; they can't fully manipulate time, but they can use moves that affect the durations of status effects: Dog Years (which doubles the duration of all effects on a target) and Sandstorm (which strikes the opposing team and reduces all effect durations by 1 turn).
891[[/folder]]
892
893[[folder:#059 - #060, #123: Salamagus, Pyromeleon and Adeptile]]
894
895----
896* ArmlessBiped: Salamagus has two legs, but no arms to speak of.
897* FlyingFace: The bestiary reveals that Adeptile is "little more than a head", and wears robes in a bid to conceal their lack of a full body.
898* MightyGlacier: Adeptile boasts high defenses, with both of them at 180, alongside a serviceable Ranged Attack of 150, but has a much more modest Speed stat of 100.
899* SquishyWizard: Salamagus' and Pyromeleon's ranged stats are much higher than their melee stats.
900* ProductionThrowback: As confirmed by the official art book, Pyromeleon's design is purposely evocative of the common LizardFolk enemies from ''VideoGame/LennasInception''.
901* StoneWall: Adeptile keeps the same Speed and Ranged Attack as it did as Salamagus, but is much bulkier in comparison to Pyromeleon, especially on Melee Defence.
902[[/folder]]
903
904[[folder:#061 - #062: Muskrateer and Ratcousel]]
905
906----
907* AnimalJingoism: [[ImpliedTrope Implied]]. The bestiary claims Muskrateer regularly gets into duels with Squirey, but it's not clear whether they're actually natural enemies or just engage in friendly sparring matches.
908* RatKing: Ratcousel is a VisualPun on both the trope itself and actual rat kings (a rare phenomenon where a group of rats accidentally get tied together by their tails); Ratcousel's main body is a giant rat wearing a crown, while the lower body's perimeter is lined by smaller rats who appear to be attached to the main body by their tails.
909* SecretArt: Clockwork Mouse, a Plastic-type melee attack that has both full accuracy and a high power of 120.
910* VisualPun: Ratcousel is a giant rat with a crown (and thus a RatKing) and a bunch of rats attached by their tails (and thus a [[https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rat_king rat king]]).
911[[/folder]]
912
913[[folder:#063 - #065: Padpole, Frillypad, and Liligator]]
914A family of water-type monsters that are based on various lake-dwelling creatures in folklore.
915----
916* CallAPegasusAHippogriff: Frillypad is described as a kelpie despite lacking any horse-like traits and looking more humanoid. This was probally done so that each member of the line is associated with an european creature that drowns people (Padpole with the Nixie, Liligator with the Grindylow)
917* LightningBruiser: Liligator has excellent melee attack power and respectable speed and health.
918* MakingASplash: They're Water-type monsters who hang around by lakes.
919* OurKelpiesAreDifferent: The second page of Frillypad's bio compares it to the kelpie. While it's a water-dwelling predator, it looks like a watery frog with a lilypad covering its head.
920[[/folder]]
921
922[[folder:#066 - #068: Elfless, Grampus, and Faerious]]
923
924----
925* ChristmasElves: Elfless are based on them, with their Faerious evolution taking after [[OurElvesAreDifferent the fantasy type of elf]].
926* EdibleBludgeon: Grampus uses a giant candy cane as a weapon.
927* HeroesPreferSwords: Faerious, an Elfless who managed to control their anger, is contrasted heroically with the much meaner Grampus who projects their own anger upon others. Sure enough, not only does Faerious wield a sword and shield, but to drive the point home, it's also the only monster in the game to have the move Heroic Blade in their level-up learnset.
928* TheKrampus: Grampus is based on one, becoming furrier with its feet becoming cloven hooves and its wooden mask gaining goat-like horns.
929* ShoutOut: Faerious is an elf that wields a sword in its left hand, a shield in its right, wears green, and has a long, floppy hat. Sounds an awful lot like [[Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda Link]].
930* SecretArt: Yule Regret That, an attack that is always a critical hit [[SituationalDamageAttack if used against a target that has already taken damage during that turn]]. Grampus is the only one to get it naturally, but Elfless and Faerious can also use the sticker if you pick up a spare.
931[[/folder]]
932
933[[folder:#069 - #070: Brushroom and Fungogh]]
934Brushroom is a Plant-type, anthropomorphic mushroom that wields a paintbrush. It can be remastered into Fungogh, whose movements are more swift and disciplined.
935----
936* ArtAttacker: They wield giant paintbrushes as weapons. Their SecretArt, Paint Swipe, transfers their current elemental coating onto the target by "painting" it on.
937* FungiArePlants: They're Plant-types based on mushrooms.
938* JackOfAllStats: Brushroom has very well-rounded stats, with 110 Ranged Defense, 90 Ranged Attack and 100 in everything else.
939* MightyGlacier: Fungogh has high Melee Attack and solid defenses, but much more modest Speed.
940* SecretArt: Paint Swipe, a strong melee attack that only consumes 1 AP, but has low priority and requires the user to have an elemental coating active. Upon landing this attack, the user's elemental coating is transferred to the target.
941* SignatureMon: Felix starts with a Brushroom, and has an innate affinity for these monsters.
942[[/folder]]
943
944[[folder:#071 - #072, #121: Boltam, Plasmantler and Pinbolt]]
945A family of electric-type monsters with a ball-shaped head. Recording Boltam gives you the Electromagnetism ability.
946----
947* FragileSpeedster: Boltam's speed at 150 is much higher than the rest of its stats at 90. It becomes closer to a JackOfAllStats after remixing to Plasmantler, including a Ranged Defence equal to its speed, while Pinbolt takes it to a greater extreme, having even higher speed and ranged attack than before at the cost of its defences.
948* GlassCannon: Pinbolt has high Ranged Attack, but low defenses.
949* MagnetismManipulation: All members of this line have the ability to create magnetic fields, with Plasmantler's being strong enough to attract non-metallic matter.
950* PrehensileTail: Pinbolt's tail doubles as a hand.
951* SecretArt: Bolt From The Blue, which summons a Boltam as an ally.
952[[/folder]]
953
954[[folder:#073 - #075: Busheye, Huntorch and Hedgeherne]]
955
956----
957* MagicKnight: Hedgeherne's Melee and Ranged Attack stats are equal at 140.
958* PlantPeople: They are all plant-type humanoids whose body seem to be made of bushes and wood.
959* PlayingWithFire: This line's SecretArt is the Bushfire skill, which deliberately burns the user to change their typing and add extra fire damage to their melee attacks. They can also combine it with the Burning Passion passive skill, which increases offensive stats when the user is burned.
960* SecretArt: Bushfire, which burns the user, applies a Fire-type coating, and makes it so that when the user lands or is hit by a melee attack, the opponent takes Fire-type damage.
961* SuperPersistentPredator: {{Exaggerated|Trope}}. According to the bestiary, Huntorch can track prey that's several miles away, while Hedgeherne can go as far as ''burning down a whole forest'' in order to catch a worthy target.
962* TheWildHunt: Seems to be the main inspiration behind Huntorch and Hedgehern considering their bestiary pages. Both of them are supernatural hunters with magic powers, with Hedgeherne being named after Herne the hunter and having his classic deer antlers.
963[[/folder]]
964
965[[folder:#076 - #077: Terracooka and Coaldron]]
966
967----
968* BreadEggsBreadedEggs: From Terracooka's Bestiary description:
969--> "Terracookas are aspiring chefs, and will attempt to cook with whatever ingredients they can find in their subterranean cave habitats. Unfortunately this means that most of their practiced recipes include lichen, moss, or both lichen and moss."
970* LethalChef: Terracooka, on account of only having access to cooking ingredients found in caves. Coaldrons seem to have overcome their earlier difficulties, as they are described as containing "delicious broth".
971* SecretArt: This line has exclusive access to the Clay-Fired sticker, which raises the user's defenses when they are struck by Fire-type moves.
972[[/folder]]
973
974[[folder:#078 - #079: Stardigrade and Galagor]]
975A family of Astral-type bugs.
976----
977* BadassCape: Galagor wears a stunning red cape and has the stats to back up the impression.
978* JetPack: Stardigrades fly with rockets on their backs.
979* MagikarpPower: Due to their extreme StoneWall status, Stardigrade will mostly be a sitting duck unless you happen to have a sticker for Shield Bash (which uses your Melee Defense as an attacking stat). Galagor, however, is a legitimate threat due to being a MightyGlacier with remarkably high stats and a wide movepool to work with.
980* MeditationPowerup: Both are among the few monsters to naturally gain the Meditate sticker, which puts the user to sleep but temporarily increases their stats in the process.
981* MightyGlacier: Galagor has very high defenses, health and Ranged Attack, counterbalanced only by pitiful Speed and Melee Attack.
982* RestingRecovery: Their SecretArt is called Hibernate, which puts them to sleep but also heals them for a fair chunk of health every turn. They can also use it to maintain the bonuses from [[MeditationPowerup Meditate]].
983* ShoutOut: Galagor is named after the classic arcade game ''VideoGame/{{Galaga}}''.
984* StoneWall: Stardigrade has massive defenses, but no offenses to speak of.
985[[/folder]]
986
987[[folder:#080 - #081: Mascotoy and Mascotorn]]
988
989----
990* AnArmAndALeg: [[ImpliedTrope Implied]]. Mascotoy used to be "some sort of character costume" according to the bestiary, and is visibly damaged, suggesting there was an arm where the stuffing is now visible.
991* BodyHorror: According to the bestiary, Mascotorn is a Mascotoy whose stuffing has grown to the point of ripping through the rest of the costume, and will eventually fall apart from growing too much.
992[[/folder]]
993
994[[folder:#082 - #083: Binvader and Binterloper]]
995
996----
997* AlienInvasion: This is their entire motif, with their [[SecretArt exclusive moves]] calling in more Binvaders and then starting a "Binvasion" to swarm the enemy.
998* {{Expy}}: Binvaders are inspired by the Daleks from ''Series/DoctorWho'', being aliens wearing cylindrical metal armour. The art book states their origins will be obvious to anyone familiar with British sci-fi.
999* RankScalesWithAsskicking: The bestiary claims there seems to be a military hierarchy among the Binvader line, in which Binterlopers hold higher rank and have been seen giving orders to Binvaders. Needless to say, with higher stats and a wider movepool, Binterloper does kick more ass.
1000* SecretArt: Binvitation, which summons a Binvader as an ally, and Binvasion, a ranged Fire-type attack that hits as many times as there are Binvaders, Binterlopers, and UFO-shaped walls (which appear when a Binvader or Binterloper casts a Metal-type elemental wall) on your side of the field.
1001* ZergRush: Their move Binvasion is effectively this, as every Binvader, Binterloper and Metal-type wall cast by the former two will strike at the enemy.
1002[[/folder]]
1003
1004
1005[[folder:#084 - #085: Twirligig and Kirikuri]]
1006----
1007* CollisionDamage: Naturally learns Splinter, a passive move that damages enemies in melee. Notably, this applies to both enemies that attack you, and when you attack enemies.
1008* DuelBoss: At the start of Felix's personal quest, the player character must fight a wild Kirikuri one on one while Felix draws a sketch of the monster.
1009* StoneWall: Twirligig has incredibly high defenses, but very low offenses and almost nonexistent speed, and the only damaging moves in their default learnset are the basic move Smack, the passively-activated Splinter, and the DesperationAttack Desperation.
1010* TrainingDummy: {{Defied|Trope}}. As explained in the bestiary, Twirligig and Kirikuri were originally dummies for weapon practice, but then became sentient and started fighting back.
1011* WoodenKatanasAreEvenBetter: Kirikuri wields a bokken (a Japanese practice sword made of wood), as stated in the bestiary. This doesn't stop them from sporting an excellent Melee Attack stat of 160.
1012[[/folder]]
1013
1014
1015[[folder:#086: Jellyton]]
1016
1017----
1018* BlobMonster: Jellyton are former Pawndead that have decayed into wads of toxic slime. This is reflected by their Liquid Body sticker, which renders them immune to Burns, but vulnerable to Lightning and Ice attacks.
1019* GlassCannon: They hit VERY hard with their 200 Melee Attack and 150 Ranged Attack, but their HP and defenses are middling-to-low, with a particular weakness to Ranged Attacks.
1020* MagicKnight: A monstrous Melee Attack of 200 paired with a solid Ranged Attack of 150.
1021* SecretArt: Their Acid Reflex passive gives them a chance to poison any opponent that strikes or is struck by them in melee, similar to the Contact Damage buff.
1022[[/folder]]
1023
1024[[folder:#087 - #088: Spirouette and Regensea]]
1025
1026----
1027* ArmlessBiped: Both monsters have a long pair of legs but no arms.
1028* DanceBattler: Both are based on ballerinas, and Regensea learns the SecretArt Water Dance, which uses its Speed instead of its Melee Attack to calculate damage.
1029* FragileSpeedster: Both Spirouette and Regensea have high speed and HP, but their defenses are low.
1030* SecretArt: Water Dance, a strong Water-type ranged move that uses Speed as an offensive stat instead of Ranged Attack.
1031* SignatureMon: Viola starts with a Spirouette, and has an innate affinity for these monsters.
1032[[/folder]]
1033
1034
1035[[folder:#089 - #091: Jumpkin, Beanstalker and Draculeaf]]
1036A family of pumpkin monsters. While Jumpkin is a friendly little pumpkin, both Beanstalker and Draculeaf are malevolent creatures that attack people violently. Recording Jumpkin gives you the Pumpkin Vine Ball ability.
1037----
1038* FaceHeelTurn: No matter which way Jumpkin remasters, this will be the outcome; while Jumpkin is genuinely nice, Beanstalker is a vicious axe murderer and Draculeaf is a deceitful schemer.
1039* OurVampiresAreDifferent: Draculeaf is based on {{Dracula}}, a famous example of vampire. It absorbs the life force of its prey with flesh-piercing roots.
1040* ProductionThrowback: Jumpkin is based on Gordon, one of the companions from ''VideoGame/LennasInception''.
1041* SecretArt: Pumpkin Pie, a move that gives the user the Speed Up and AP Boost buffs.
1042* WeaponBasedCharacterization: Beanstalker is vicious and loves going after terrified victims while wielding an axe, and their second bestiary page contains a brief overview of the axe murderer archetype.

1046[[folder:#092 - #095: Pawndead, Skelevangelist, Kingrave and Queenyx]]
1047A family of Earth-types species that are based on chess. Skelevangelist can evolve into Kingrave if choosing the "Melee Attack" branch or Queenyx if choosing the "Speed" Branch.
1048----
1049* ArmlessBiped: Pawndead has feet but no arms.
1050* ChessMotifs: Pawndead is based on Pawn, Skelevangelist is based on Bishop, Kingrave is based on King, and Queenyx is based on Queen.
1051* {{Expy}}: Kingrave and Queenyx are this to Nidoking and Nidoqueen from ''VideoGame/PokemonRedAndBlue''. Both are pairs of closely related {{Mons}}, consisting of a "king" and "queen", where the former has higher offenses while the latter has greater bulk, and both pairs have earth-based elemental typing.
1052* GlassCannon: Kingrave has massive offences, with the highest Melee Attack stat in the game, but less impressive defences and speed.
1053* JackOfAllStats: Pawndead and Skelevangelist has all their stats being the same (at 90 and 110 respectively). After evolving into Kingrave or Queenyx, some of the stats are drastically improved.
1054* StoneWall: Queenyx has very high HP and speed, but less impressive attacking stats.
1055[[/folder]]
1056
1057[[folder:#096 - #097: Burnace and Smogmagog]]
1058
1059----
1060* ArmlessBiped: {{Inverted|Trope}} with Burnace, who has arms, but no legs.
1061* MightyGlacier: Burnace and especially Smogmagog have exceptionally high defenses, but very poor speed. Their attack stats aren't particularly good, either, but they can compensate with the Shield Bash technique, which deals damage based on Melee Defense.
1062[[/folder]]
1063
1064[[folder:#098 - #099: Faucetear and Fountess]]
1065
1066----
1067* PerpetualFrowner: Both Faucetear and Fountess are almost always crying.
1068* SecretArt: Waterworks, a powerful Water-type ranged attack that hits all other monsters at once, both allies and enemies.
1069[[/folder]]
1070
1071[[folder:#100 - #101: Cluckabilly and Rockertrice]]
1072
1073----
1074* BasiliskAndCockatrice: The Rockertrice is a Cockatrice with a punk rock nose ring and spiked mohawk.
1075* JackOfAllStats: Rockertrice's stats are roughly balanced, with all of them at 130 except for a Melee Attack of 145 and a Ranged Attack of 135.
1076* {{Rockabilly}}: The Cluckabilly's appearance references the style of musicians of this genre.
1077* TakenForGranite: Rockertrice is one of two monsters that can use the Stony Look sticker, which inflicts the Petrified status.
1078[[/folder]]
1079
1080[[folder:#102 - #103: Pondwalker and Sharktanker]]
1081A family of water-type monsters that resembles a shark living in a tank.
1082----
1083* JackOfAllStats: All of Pondwalker's stats are exactly the same, at 100 each. This is low overall, but decent for a first stage monster.
1084* MightyGlacier: Sharktanker's offensive and defensive stats are within a small difference of each other, ranging from 130 to 150, but their Speed lags behind at only 110.
1085* MobileFishbowl: Both monsters are fish that move around using water-filled mech suits.
1086[[/folder]]
1087
1088[[folder:#104 - #105: Pombomb and Spitzfyre]]
1089Pombombs are Fire-type Pomeranians whose tails look like fuses, that specialise in ranged attacks. They can be remastered into Spitzfyre, which doesn't change much besides gaining a pair of aviator goggles.
1090----
1091* ComMons: Uniquely, they are the only SignatureMon that appears earlier than their partner, with regular Pombomb being a frequent encounter in Harbourtown's Outskirts.
1092* MascotMook: The art book says it was designed to be a mascot for the game; it's prominently featured in promotional artwork and is on the Windows version's taskbar icon.
1093* PowerIncontinence: The reason why Spitzfyre gain aviator goggles, a scarf, and a hat is, according to their in-game bestiary entry, because their fire-breathing ability has improved so much that they need to protect their eyes from the smoke caused by accidentally setting things aflame.
1094* SignatureMon: Barkley starts with an Ice-type Bootleg Pombomb, and has an innate affinity for these monsters.
1095* SquishyWizard: They have solid ranged stats contrasted by weaker melee stats.
1096[[/folder]]
1097
1098[[folder:#106 - #107: Icepeck and Cryoshear]]
1099
1100----
1101* DualWielding: Cryoshear fights with two long blades made of ice.
1102* FragileSpeedster: Has very high attack and speed, at the cost of defences.
1103* GlassCannon: Both of these monsters sport high Melee Attack, along with even higher Speed that can itself be used as an attacking stat with the move Icicle Dart, which they learn naturally. However, all of their other stats are very low.
1104* PolarPenguins: The Icepeck is an Ice-type, penguin-like monster that's native to the cold mountains of New Wirral. Its bestiary entry says it can't venture into warmer climates because its beak would melt.
1105* ShearMenace: Cryoshear crosses their two blades to use them as if they were a pair of scissors.
1106[[/folder]]
1107
1108
1109[[folder:#108 - #109: Sparktan and Zeustrike]]
1110Sparktan is a living thundercloud. It can be remastered into Zeustrike, which wears a soldier helmet.
1111----
1112* {{Cumulonemesis}}: They're living clouds that attack with lightning.
1113* FragileSpeedster: Is extremely fast, but relatively lacking in every other stat.
1114[[/folder]]
1115
1116[[folder:#110 - #111: Kuneko and Shining Kuneko]]
1117-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/TaraPlatt
1118Kuneko is an Air-type CatGirl who goes on a quest to find the four elemental shrines. After defeating her in battle, she transforms into the Astral-type Shining Kuneko. After her storyline is completed, she gives the player a tape, allowing them to transform into a copy of Kuneko.
1119----
1120* AllYourPowersCombined: Kuneko transforms into Shining Kuneko when she absorbs the powers of the four classical elements; this form is Astral-type, which is resistant to and effective against Air, Water, Fire, and Earth.
1121* ArtInitiatesLife: [[spoiler:She's an OriginalCharacter made by Felix when he was going through an "anime" phase, who has become a real being in New Wirral.]]
1122* BlowYouAway: Kuneko is Air-type, likely because she has wings.
1123* BossSubtitles: "Mysterious Catgirl" as Kuneko. [[spoiler:"Unbound Creation"]] as Shining Kuneko.
1124* DefeatMeansFriendship: [[spoiler:Shining Kuneko is fought at the end of Felix's personal quest as an Archangel. After defeating her, you get a cassette tape with her base form and can re-encounter her in the wild, making her the only playable Archangel besides Morgante Gestalt (who is [[EleventhHourSuperpower only a plot-related form of you]]).]]
1125* DualityMotif: Kuneko has one red eye and one blue eye, one leathery wing and one feathery wing, and her hair is split down the middle between black and white. These all fit with her backstory of being an [[BornOfHeavenAndHell angel/demon hybrid]].
1126* JackOfAllStats: All her stats are equal in both of her forms. This is a good thing for her shining form since Astral is a good attacking type and she can learn coverage for Metal, Plastic, and Poison types. No real weaknesses to exploit.
1127* {{Leitmotif}}: Kuneko is the only monster with her own theme song.
1128* NinjaPirateZombieRobot: Kuneko is a CatGirl that's [[BornOfHeavenAndHell the daughter of an angel and a demon]], left as a DoorstopBaby at the base of a {{Ninja}} clan that trained her in their ways. Shining Kuneko is what she becomes after also gaining the powers of the Four Elemental Shrines.
1129* PowerFloats: Shining Kuneko floats above the ground without flapping her wings.
1130* PowerGlows: Shining Kuneko has glowing hair, wings, and eyes.
1131* RageAgainstTheAuthor: [[spoiler:Felix's personal quest culminates in Kuneko turning against him due to being rejected out of shame, by fighting him as an Archangel.]]
1132* SecretArt: Cosmic Kunai, a fully accurate Astral-type ranged attack with a whopping 150 power that hits all enemies, breaks walls, and requires the cap of 10 AP to use. Makes sense, since [[spoiler:it's her [[LimitBreak Angelic Attack]]]].
1133* StylisticSuck: [[spoiler:You get to see Felix's first drawing of Kuneko as part of his quest line. It's clearly one of his very early works.]]
1134* UniformityException: [[spoiler:The only Archangel in the main story with an elemental type, the only Archangel in the main story to not be absorbed by Aleph or unlock part of Morgante's riddle, and the only playable Archangel outside of Morgante Gestalt, who is a plot-specific transformation rather than a monster as such]].
1135* UniqueEnemy: There is only one Kuneko in the world, as she's not a natural inhabitant of New Wirral. As the player is a CollectorOfForms, recording a copy of her leaves her free to reappear later for a rematch -- after her initial scripted appearance, she occasionally appears in place of a Rogue Fusion, potentially even as a bootleg of herself.
1136* WalkingSpoiler: It's nearly impossible to talk about Kuneko without revealing that [[spoiler:she was a character created by Felix who [[ArtInitiatesLife became real]] in New Wirral]], and that [[spoiler:Shining Kuneko is an Archangel]].
1137* WellDoneSonGuy: [[spoiler:It becomes obvious she is painfully aware that Felix views her as an embarrassing OC he created when he was a kid, before he realized she had come to life. Reconciling the two is part of Felix's personal quest.]]
1138[[/folder]]
1139
1140[[folder:#112: Djinn Entonic]]
1141An Astral-type spirit in a tuxedo who serves drinks.
1142
1143----
1144* FrothyMugsOfWater: Its bestiary description says it's not entirely sure what drinks they serve, just that they're [[ThinkOfTheCensors "family-friendly" and "not affecting the age rating of the game"]].
1145* GenieInABottle: They're inspired by the ''djinn'' (i.e. "genies") of Middle Eastern folklore, and they emerge from a bottle just like in many folktales. It's also spoofed in that they serve drinks as part of their bottle motif rather than granting wishes.
1146* SecretArt: It's the only monster that can learn Djinntoxicate, an Astral-type ranged attack that confuses the target.
1147[[/folder]]
1148
1149
1150[[folder:#113: Arkidd]]
1151A gamer-like robot.
1152----
1153* FragileSpeedster: Has the highest Speed stat of all monsters, at 250, and a respectable Melee Attack of 150, but all other stats are modest by comparison at a mere 100.
1154* MiniBoss: When traveling through Falldown Mall, after you pull the power lever to cut the wires' electricity and switch doors and hallways around, an Arkidd pounces on you during a cutscene, starting a fight and effectively acting as Falldown Mall's midboss.
1155[[/folder]]
1156
1157[[folder:#114: Undyin]]
1158A ghostly undead woman impaled with a hook.
1159----
1160* AmbushingEnemy: Undyins are hard to see in the waters of the Cast Iron Shore; only their glowing eyes are visible, and even those aren't terribly obvious during the day.
1161* GlowingEyesOfDoom: Their glowing eyes are all that can be seen of them in the overworld. Also overlaps with GlowingEyelightsOfUndeath.
1162* MightyGlacier: An impressive HP of 200, along with a respectable Ranged Attack of 160, but everything else is subpar at 110.
1163* VengefulGhost: The bestiary says that according to legend, Undyin was born from the vengeful spirit of a murdered bride who was thrown off her lover's ship.
1164[[/folder]]
1165
1166
1167[[folder:#115: Spooki-Onna]]
1168A misty woman who can use ice-related powers.
1169----
1170* YukiOnna: It's based on the typical Yuki-Onna from the Japanese folklore, being a feminine ghost that lives on an icy mountain top and can control snow.
1171[[/folder]]
1172
1173
1174[[folder:#116: Khepri]]
1175A floating scarab beetle that holds a miniature sun between its horns.
1176----
1177* MightyGlacier: Sports abnormally high ranged stats at 300 for attack and 250 for defense, but is also very slow at only 79 speed.
1178* MinMaxing: Simultaneously has the single highest stat in the game (300 Ranged Attack) and the single lowest (1 Melee Attack). Khepri in general is a very optimized monster, with an exceptional 250 Ranged Defense and all remaining stats being mediocre.
1179* ThePowerOfTheSun: It's a Fire-type that uses the energy from a miniature sun to attack.
1180* ScarabPower: Fitting for a monster based on the Egyptian sun god, it draws power from a miniature sun.
1181* SquishyWizard: It has the highest ranged attack of any monster at 300, but its melee attack is a measly 1. A Melee Defense of 100 also means Khepri won't be taking melee hits very well, in contrast to an outstanding 250 Ranged Defense.
1182[[/folder]]
1183
1184[[folder:#117: Averevoir]]
1185
1186A large, elusive bird that stands on a plinth and carries a plant in its beak. Recording it gives you the flight ability.
1187----
1188* ArcVillain: [[spoiler:They're the boss of Barkley's quest, due to killing his human partner and barring access to said partner's remains [[DueToTheDead for burial]].]]
1189* BilingualBonus: One of the texts that can appear on the loading screen reads "Saying goodbye to Averevoir". This is a nod to how Averevoir's name comes from "au revoir", French for "goodbye".
1190* BossSubtitles: Towering Bird.
1191* {{Expy}}: Of Lugia from ''VideoGame/PokemonGoldAndSilver''. Both are avian boss monsters encountered in a cave, who have an unorthodox stat distribution pairing high speed with [[StoneWall high defenses and health, leaving offensive stats as the lowest]].
1192* SecretArt: Tower Defense, a passive move that activates when its health drops below half, increasing its defenses and changing its type to Earth.
1193* StoneWall: It has high defenses and health (150 each) and low attacking stats (100 each), and 2 of its natural passives involve reducing damage that it takes, one of which eliminates its Electric weakness. In an unusual example of the trope, however, Averevoir's highest stat is actually Speed, at an outstanding 190.
1194* TurnsRed: If it has the Tower Defence sticker, it transforms the plinth it stands upon into a tower to hide in at low health, which raises its defences and changes its type from Air to Earth.
1195* UniformityException: [[spoiler:The only partner quest end boss to not be an Archangel]].
1196* UniqueEnemy: There is only one Averevoir in the world, first encountered during [[spoiler:Barkley's quest due to it killing Barkley's master]]. After its defeat, however, it's possible to encounter it again in place of a Rogue Fusion, potentially even as a bootleg of itself.
1197[[/folder]]
1198
1199[[folder:#118: Glaistain]]
1200
1201The only naturally Glass-type monster, Glaistain resides in a ruined church and is made of shattered stained-glass windows.
1202----
1203* BossSubtitles: Stained Glass Fairy.
1204* GlassCannon: Both literally and metaphorically, at least in comparison to the other [[UniqueEnemy Unique Enemies]]. Its defenses are subpar (tied for 5th lowest melee defense and 4th lowest ranged defense), but its speed is top-class(second fastest in the game) and its offenses are no slouch either (tied for eighth-highest melee attack and fifth-highest ranged attack). It is also the only monster in the game that naturally possesses the Glass-type, allowing it to insulate Lightning element foes, at the cost of running the risk of being subject to a OneHitKill via [[GlassShatteringSound resonance stacks from Air-type attacks]].
1205* OurFairiesAreDifferent: It's loosely based on the glaistig, a kind of elusive fairy from the Scottish highlands. Glaistain's title is "stained glass fairy", and it vaguely resembles a WingedHumanoid with the planes of glass that float behind its back.
1206* UniqueEnemy: There is only one Glaistain in the world, accessible by opening the Glaistainbury Abbey in Cherry Meadow. After its defeat, however, it's possible to encounter it again in place of a Rogue Fusion, potentially even as a bootleg of itself. Glaistain is also the only monster in the game to be Glass-type by default, with the only other way to obtain Glass-type monsters being through bootlegs.
1207[[/folder]]
1208
1209[[folder:#119: Miss Mimic]]
1210
1211----
1212* ChestMonster: She's able to take the form of any object with perceived value; she currently prefers to look like the red item caches left by Rangers in the hope of taking someone in need of such supplies by surprise.
1213* FemmeFatale: Referred to as such by her BossSubtitles. Despite her disguise, she tries to entice her prey verbally as well.
1214* GlassCannon: Has the second highest Melee Attack in the game, along with a good Speed stat, but every other stat is mediocre.
1215[[/folder]]
1216
1217[[folder:#120: Anathema]]
1218Anathema is a Beast-type monster that looks like a [[FrankensteinsMonster Frankenstein-esque mishmash of other monsters]]. [[spoiler:They were originally created by scientists following the instructions of the Archangel Helia.]]
1219----
1220* DoppelgangerAttack: Anathema has access to the Fission Power sticker, which uses half its current HP to make a fully autonomous copy of itself. This can still be used while it's fused with other monsters, potentially resulting in fights against up to three copies of an Anathema-based Rogue Fusion at once.
1221* ExplosiveBreeder: Due to Anathema's ability to copy itself, all of the Ranger Missions that deal with Unstable Fusions are framed as requests to destroy them before they replicate out of control.
1222* FleshGolem: Anathema is a grotesque surgical combination of several monsters, including Folklord, Masquerattle, and Manispear. The end result is barely recognizable.
1223* HybridMonster: Has Masquerattle's tail, along with Folklord and Manispear's arms. The rest is from another, unspecified creature.
1224* MightyGlacier: Anathema's stats are all above-average, save for its poor speed.
1225* SecretArt: Fission Power is exclusive to Anathema.
1226* TakingYouWithMe: Anathema also have access to the Self-Destruct sticker, so all those copies you'll be fighting will have a tendency to blow up in your face when defeated. Sometimes you'll even get a rolling chain explosion, as the damage from one Self-Destructing Anathema finishes off its clones, which then explode in turn.
1227[[/folder]]
1228
1229!!!Expanded Roster
1230Note: Pinbolt (#121), Diveberg (#122) and Adeptile (#123), who were introduced as alternate remasters for preexisting monsters, can be found in the folders for their respective lines in the Base Roster section.
1231[[folder:#124 - #125: Trapwurm and Wyrmaw]]
1232Trapwurms are serpents that hide underground and wait for prey to be caught in their beartrap-like jaws, encountered in the Marshland Caves, a new area added in the Version 1.2 update, as well as added to the Marshland itself. They can be remastered into Wyrmaws, lindworms too big to hide underground that must now draw in prey by appearing decorative.
1233----
1234* AmbushingEnemy: Trapwurms hide almost entirely underground, waiting to lunge out at anyone who walks close. It's possible to spot the tips of their jaws sticking out of the ground, but it's a fairly small sprite to begin with that often blends in with the mud of the Marshlands.
1235* ArmlessBiped: Fitting for a lindworm, Trapwyrm has a basic serptine body except for it's two short legs.
1236* MightyGlacier: High defenses and Melee Attack, low Speed.
1237* OurDragonsAreDifferent: Both of them are named after wyrms, with the bestiary comparing them to lindworms. They are depicted as coiled up serpents with huge jaws, with Trapwurm having only having legs for limbs and Wyrmaw not having any limb at all.
1238[[/folder]]
1239
1240[[folder:#126 - #127: Ferriclaw and Auriclaw]]
1241Ferriclaws are metallic arachnids that live underground in the Marshland Caves, that decorate themselves by wearing the death masks taken from long-forgotten tombs. They can be remastered into Auriclaws, whose maturity causes a alchemical reaction that turns the iron on them, including their masks, into gold.
1242----
1243* AllWebbedUp: Their SecretArt Web Wrap inflicts the Tape Jam effect, preventing its target from voluntarily switching to another tape. They also naturally learn Sticky Spray, which nullifies its target's evasion.
1244* GoldIsYellow: Auriclaw's golden mask and legs have a pretty bright yellow color, pretty different from that of real life gold.
1245[[/folder]]
1246
1247[[folder:#128: Picksie]]
1248Earthen fairies that adorn themselves with the gemstones they mine. Once one has been encountered in the Marshland Caves (which immediately runs from the player), they will start appearing throughout New Wirral's caves and stations.
1249----
1250* EverythingsSparklyWithJewerly: They spent most of their time mining for treasure, and often adorn themselves with some of the treasures they find. Their game sprite show them with what appears to be a golden mask and a crown made of multicolored gemstones.
1251* JackOfAllStats: All of its stats are equal at a respectable 130, save for its Speed at 150. This lets you build Picksie towards many different styles of battling.
1252* OurPixiesAreDifferent: They are depicted as short, gray-skinned humanoid creatures with really long ears. They excavate caves, just like [[OurDwarvesAreAllTheSame dwarves]], however they have wildly different designs.
1253* PunBasedCreature: Their name comes from the fact that they use pickaxes for mining, but it's also homophonous with the word "pixie".
1254* SecretArt: Has two: [[LootMakingAttack Treasure Dig]], which has a chance of digging up resources that are collected by the battle's winner, and Gemstone Wall, which creates a special Earth-type wall that also generates AP for the monster it protects.
1255[[/folder]]
1256
1257!!!''Pier of the Unknown'' DLC Roster
1258[[folder:#??? - #???: Charlequin, Blunderbusk, and Fragliacci]]
1259A family of Fire-type species based on clowns.
1260----
1261* BlindWeaponmaster: As noted by the bestiary, having no eyes doesn't stop Blunderbusk from having ImprobableAimingSkills.
1262* ConfusionFu: These monsters are the only line with natural access to Prismatic, which changes their type at the end of each round.
1263* FingerGun: Blunderbusk makes this gesture to fire projectiles. This is both noted in the bestiary and shown in Blunderbusk's attack animation.
1264* ImprobableAimingSkills: {{Exaggerated|Trope}}. The bestiary points out that Blunderbusk manages to have very good aim despite ''constantly rocking back and forth as well as having no eyes''.
1265* MagicKnight: Fragliacci boasts a high Ranged Attack of 170 alongisde a solid Melee Attack of 140.
1266* MonsterClown: They're all Clown {{Mon}}sters, but Fragliacci leans hardest into this trope. When remastering a Charlequin, deciding the purpose of a clown is "to terrify" results in what's essentially a walking cannon with a clown face on the end of the barrel.
1267* NothingUpMySleeve: The bestiary notes that Charlequin's oversized sleeves are used to conceal fireworks, flammable materials and incendiary devices. While the bestiary frames them as items used for performances, the fact that Charlequin learns moves like Inflame or Gasoline Spray implies these concealed items double as weapons.
1268* SecretArt: Sticker Trick, a Glitter-type status move which replaces the target's last used move with Booby Trap, a move exclusive to this gimmick that damages its own user.
1269[[/folder]]
1270
1271[[folder:#??? - #???: Amphare and Lapacitor]]
1272A line of Lightning-type living batteries.
1273----
1274* LivingBattery: They are living batteries that form limbs by suspending scrap iron in the air around their body.
1275* PowerCordTail: Played with. Lapacitor has a power cord as an appendage, but rather than a tail, it's an arm.
1276* SecretArt: Energy Reserves, which gives a 50% chance to transfer 1 AP to a random ally at the end of the user's turn.
1277* StoneWall: Neither of their offensive stats are particularly high, while their defences are significantly more usable.
1278* SupportPartyMember: Amphare's natural moveset enforces their role as supportive monsters, with Magnet to redirect attacks, Energy Reserves to allow allies access to stronger attacks sooner [[spoiler:(as demonstrated with the initial Umbrahella encounter)]], Ionised Air to inflict Conductive on the opponent's side, and Zoomies to chip at the opponent.
1279[[/folder]]
1280
1281[[folder:#??? - #???: Littlered, Rosehood, and Scarleteeth]]
1282----
1283* MaleMightFemaleFinesse: A variant; the more feminine Rosehood is oriented towards Speed and Ranged Attack, while the relatively more masculine Scarleteeth is oriented towards defences and Melee Attack.
1284* ShoutOut: The entire family is a reference to ''Literature/LittleRedRidingHood''. Littlered and Rosehood are based on the titular character, while Scarleteeth is based on the Big Bad Wolf.
1285[[/folder]]
1286
1287[[folder:#???: Hauntome]]
1288An Air-type species that resembles a book possessed by a restless spirit.
1289----
1290* ArmoredButFrail: Their Hardback stickers help bolster their survivability despite their middling HP and weak Ranged Defense.
1291* SecretArt: Hardback, which reduces damage from most attacks, but [[KillItWithFire renders them especially vulnerable to Fire attacks]], even nullifying Air's usual resistance to Fire.
1292[[/folder]]
1293
1294[[folder:#??? - #???: Minortom and Majortom]]
1295A line of novelty automatons that have gained mechanical sentience.
1296----
1297* ShoutOut: The entire line is named after Major Tom, the character from Music/DavidBowie's song "Music/SpaceOddity".
1298[[/folder]]
1299
1300[[folder:#???: Umbrahella]]
1301A living umbrella whose appearance is considered a bad omen.
1302----
1303* MightyGlacier: Its stats are respectable-to-high, save for its poor Speed.
1304* SecretArt: Bad Forecast, a move that negates the target's evasion and sets a random weather on the field.
1305* UniqueEnemy: There's only one Umbrahella. Finding all the Prize Tickets and defeating the boss of the main quest of the ''Pier of the Unknown'' DLC allows you to purchase the key to its cage in the warehouse.
