3	!!Knighthalt Frain
4	[[quoteright:195:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/machineknightfrain_332.png]]
5
6	The hero of the game and the chief engineer at the Royal Research Center in Schutzheim.
7
8	* FishOutOfWater: The world he comes from is quite different from the world he ends up in. He excuses his weirdness by saying that he's from somewhere beyond the sea and brushing off further inquiries as simply too difficult to explain and of no relevance anyway.
9	* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: Frain is nice and far too trusting.
10	* HeroesPreferSwords: He's even a natural at it, having been a scientist for the first twenty or so years of his life and presumably never having so much as touched a sword, yet taking to it with ease and skill when Aulin gives him one.
11	* LastNameBasis: When he first introduces himself to Aulin, his two names confuse her, as people in her world have OnlyOneName. He tells her that Knighthalt is basically a nickname and to just call him Frain.
12	* ScienceHero: He is a scientist by profession, and is apparently good at combat, too.
13	* WalkingDisasterArea: Because of Frain's association with the machine soldiers that invade the fantasy world, some people mistake him for being the source of those mechs. [[spoiler:The kingdom of Curio gets destroyed before he arrives, and the kingdom of Chasmus outright ostracizes him from mere suspicion until the king changed his mind when his people saw him take action against the mechs.]]
14
15	!!Aulin
16	[[quoteright:134:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/machineknightaulin_3705.png]]
17
18	The first major character you meet, Aulin is a mercenary who likes saving people who get into trouble. She'll save Frain from a group of Panchos outside Col, but won't join until after your first visit to Dandong Castle.
19
20	%%* ActionGirl
21	* ActionGirlfriend: Assuming Frain chooses her.
22	%%* BadassArmFold
23	* BettyAndVeronica: Veronica to Bell's Betty.
24	%%* BoyishShortHair
25	%%* HotBlooded
26	* ScarfOfAsskicking: In the typical red color. You'd be forgiven for mistaking it for a BadassCape, as her portrait doesn't show it very well.
27	%%* SleevesAreForWimps
28	* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: The rough-and-tumble counterpart to Bell.
29
30	!!Bell
31	[[quoteright:152:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/machineknightbell_640.png]]
32
33	A Sister of the church in Col. She found Frain after his encounter with the Thabitors after he fled outside Dandong Castle, then decided to join the team after Aulin.
34
35	* BettyAndVeronica: Betty to Aulin's Veronica.
36	* TheDulcineaEffect: Aulin accuses her of offering to join Frain once he wakes up just because he's good-looking.
37	%%* LongHairIsFeminine
38	* PinkMeansFeminine: Her robes are a reddish shade of pink.
39	%%* SignificantGreenEyedRedhead
40	* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: The very feminine counterpoint to Aulin.
41
42	!!Shaft
43	Frain's superior who sends the former on the mission to save the world.
44
45	* HoistByHisOwnPetard: [[spoiler:Just as he was going to demonstrate the destructive power of his ultimate creation, Ein Heim, he unknowingly gets swallowed by it.]]
46	* MadScientist: He mentions that he had to make up for his planet's eventual descent into destruction by invading another for its resources. [[spoiler: He plays this trope straight by the end of the game, building a weapon of mass destruction.]]
47	* WalkingSpoiler: He actually has a much bigger role by the end-game.
48
49	!!Fraiya
50	An assistant in Frain's laboratory. She is in love with Frain, and is reluctant when Frain is going for his mission.
51	* {{Yandere}}: [[spoiler: That ScaryShinyGlasses scene at Lecom castle should be you ''first'' clue. Although turns out that she was also under Shaft's brainwashing.]]
52
53	!!Paul
54	-->''"Politics is merely warfare without drawn weapons."''
55
56	A staff officer at Dandong Castle. When he hears that Col has been sacked, he immediately declares Frain a treacherous spy.
57
58	* FourEyesZeroSoul: Gives off this impression, what's with his immediate suspicion on Frain and that Aulin and Bell are quick to dislike him.
59	%%* RedEyesTakeWarning
60	* ShouldersOfDoom: Wears a pair of nice epaulettes with gold tassels.
