9! Celestial Beings
10
11[[folder:Aethra]]
12A TopGod who sacrificed their life to become the universe through which new life (other deities included) would rise.
13----
14* GeniusLoci
15* GreaterScopeParagon: Most of the gods of the universe would never have existed were it not for Aethra ''becoming'' the universe.
16* HeroicSacrifice
17* TopGod: Heavily implied to be one, if not ''the'' TopGod.

19
20[[folder:Diche]]
21The Goddess of Life who created the world on the body of Orbis.
22----
23* ButNowIMustGo: Actually, Ras convinces her to leave Orbis in the care of her creations so that she may step in to stop the celestial war between gods.
24* GodIsFlawed: Diche's escapism from the Celestial War ruined a world so many times. It took seven worlds for her to understand it.
25* GodsHandsAreTied: A part of the tension in the beginning of Chapter 1. As Ras woke up in the Seventh World, he felt that Diche isn't responding to him this time around.
26* GreaterScopeParagon: She wants to keep the world of Orbis intact, which makes her the opposite of Ilryos.
27* PowerDegeneration: Diche's power has been fading throughout the continuous cycle of war against the Archdemon. The seventh world was thought to be her critical point, that those who heard of her [[TheProphecy prophecy about Ras]] thought that the Goddess' power was failing. It's also the reason why Ras felt weaker when he woke up in the Seventh World unlike before.
28* RefusalOfTheCall: Diche breaks away from the Celestial War after her brother Orbis dies, spending time to create a world on his body. Ilryos disagrees with this, creating Anghraf to destroy the world that Diche created.
29* ResetButton: If the Heirs fail to defeat the Archdemon, Diche resets the world to undo the destruction and [[LaserGuidedAmnesia wipes the memories]] of everyone regarding the previous world and their failure.
30* WorfHadTheFlu: She was weakening each time she recreated the world from Anghraf’s carnage, which partially explains why the seventh world was full of so many more problems and, even with nearly all of Ritania united against Anghraf, he still came very close to winning.

38
39[[folder:Ilryos]]
40The Sun God.
41----
42* AmbiguouslyEvil: The degree to just how "evil" he is may be uncertain. Did he truly create Anghraf out of malicious intent, or simply to get Diche to leave her world and end the war of the gods? Later it's revealed that he was influenced, manipulated, and corrupted by the Dark Star, Faustus.
43* AmbiguousSituation: It is currently unknown whether he is finally willing to leave Orbis alone for once in his life with Diche having presumably returned to him and the other gods or if he still does not want it around. Ras seems to believe that Ilryos will no longer threaten the planet.
44* TheGhost: He is never seen, only mentioned by those who know of him and his church.
45* GodIsFlawed: Ilryos created Anghraf and was revealed to be manipulated or corrupted by Faustus.
46* GreaterScopeVillain: He definitely fits this trope given that he is the deity responsible for creating Anghraf through a curse on Orbis, and since Archdemon Mercedes says she's doing "Everything... for Ilryos." However, it's debatable whether or not he's doing it out of malice and hatred for mortals, or whether he simply wants Diche to stop playing around with her new world and return to fight in the celestial war. It's eventually revealed that Faustus is TheManBehindTheMan and GreaterScopeVillain even to Ilryos himself. Ilryos later has a HeelFaceTurn and allies with Diche and her subjects against the true villain, Faustus.
47* HeelFaceTurn: Possibly, given that he is willing to let Ras use his power against Straze, the champion of Faustus.
48* JerkassGod: He created Anghraf and set him loose on the world of Orbis.
49* LightIsNotGood: The God of the Sun who waged war against Diche and the world of Orbis.
50* TheManBehindTheMan: Anghraf is his creation and proxy. However, Faustus is this for Ilryos himself, whether the latter realizes it or not.
51* PlayingWithFire: He is the Sun God.
52* {{Revenge}}: His motive for creating the Archdemon was to get revenge on Diche for bailing out of the divine war to turn her lover Orbis's body into a world for people to inhabit.
53* UnwittingPawn: Faustus was playing him like a fiddle the entire time, driving him against Diche and the inhabitants of Orbis.
54* WellIntentionedExtremist: Believe it or not, yes, he is. He may have created Anghraf, but he did so in the hopes that it would send Diche a message to leave Orbis alone and return to the celestial war. Essentially, he is an army leader who is infuriated that Diche left in the middle of the conflict to go and watch over the mortals.

57[[folder:Fastus / Faustus / The Dark Star]]
58
59----
60* AmbiguousSituation:
61** Is it really a sword? Is it a godly or demonic being that sees and speaks through the sword? Is it actually an entity who is sealed in the sword? [[spoiler:It's eventually discovered that Faustus is a great black star that wishes to eradicate all other deities (also represented by and connected to celestial bodies) and destroy existence.]]
62** [[spoiler:After Ains accidentally destroys the rock he was intending on possessing in order to control the Incarnation of Destruction, Fastus' current whereabouts or plans are unknown.]]
63* AttackOfThe50FootWhatever: [[spoiler:He was planning on using a HumongousMecha in order to carry out his plans, but this was foiled by Ains accidentally wrecking the power core.]]
64* BigBad: [[spoiler: Directly steps into the spotlight after Luluca lands the killing blow on Straze. Fastus takes over his body and becomes the story's ultimate enemy.]]
65* BigWordShout: [[spoiler:Yells "Stop" at Ains several times to get him to cease shaking the Incarnation of Destruction's power core and destroying his vessel, but Ains can't hear him.]]
66* {{BFS}}: It ''is'' one, or at least it has the ability to possess it.
67* CurbStompBattle: [[spoiler: The heroes are no match for him whatsoever in their first face-off.]]
68* TheChessmaster: [[spoiler:He is the one responsible for the Celestial War, deliberately turning Ilryos against Diche being one of his most infamous sins.]]
69* DarkIsEvil: [[spoiler:Faustus is often referred to as the Dark Star.]]
70* DirtyCoward: Notos sees him as this. According to him, Fastus does not dare venture near his lair, indicating that Notos may be a match for Fastus' full power.
71* TheDogWasTheMastermind: [[spoiler: Or rather, the sword.]]
72* FightingAShadow: [[spoiler: Damaging Incomplete Fastus will not do anything to his true form, the Dark Star, or at least that is what he claims as he also notes that he "cheated death" by escaping.]]
73* FinalBoss: [[spoiler: Of ''Godkiller'' as "Incomplete Fastus".]]
74* GenericDoomsdayVillain: [[spoiler: Desires the complete annihilation of everything in existence.]]
75* GreaterScopeVillain: [[spoiler: Faustus is the power behind everything Straze does, and is even more powerful than the previous GreaterScopeVillain Ilryos, given all his talk of “lesser gods” as well as the fact that he corrupted Ilryos and spurred him onwards towards starting a celestial war.]]
76* HopelessBossFight: [[spoiler: He wipes the floor with the heroes in their first encounter with him without even trying.]]
77* HumongousMecha: [[spoiler: What he was intending to use to wipe out Orbis and the rest of the universe (he called it his "Incarnation of Destruction"), but Ains destroying the rock which served as its power core ended up ruining that plan.]]
78* TheManBehindTheMan: [[spoiler: To Straze and everyone who obeys him, as well as Ilryos (and the Archdemon by extension) in the first story.]]
79* OmnicidalManiac: Wants nothing less than to wipe out all of existence, especially the gods.
80* PhysicalGod: [[spoiler: Easily the biggest example in the game by far, other than Notos.]]
81* SpellMyNameWithAnS: He is referred to as both "Faustus" and "Fastus".
82* StoryBreakerPower: Heavily implied, what with it referring to the deities we know as “lesser gods”, which may indicate that not even someone as powerful as Ilryos is a match for it. [[spoiler: It takes Luluca, Violet, Pavel, Arkasus, Mercedes and Ras combined, all at their absolute strongest, in order to damage his vessel, and even then he still regenerates. Ras lands the last hit only by becoming fully mortal yet retaining the powers of Ilryos and Diche combined.]]
83* TalkingWeapon: He speaks through the sword that Straze uses.
84* TimeForPlanB:
85** Faustus can't go directly to Orbis because he was being blocked by the moon goddess Lunaris, so he sent Straze to act on his behalf.
86** Either Straze finds what he's looking for in Orbis, or Faustus himself takes over Straze's body, or use some giant construct to enact his plans. Unfortunately for Faustus, all three of these plans were foiled by the heroes.
87* UncertainDoom: [[spoiler:Ains destroys his second vessel while he is trying to possess it, however whether or not this spells the end for his plans remains unknown. It is worth noting that he mentioned he had other vessels (plural) aside from Straze, so the Incarnation of Destruction may not be his only one remaining.]]
88* VillainousBreakdown: [[spoiler:He yells at Ains repeatedly to stop shaking the rock he stole from the Incarnation of Destruction, as doing so is destroying his vessel, but Ains is unable to hear him.]]
89* VillainOverride: [[spoiler: Transforms Straze's body into his own so that he may face the heroes properly himself.]]
90* WalkingSpoiler: Definitely the biggest spoiler character in the game.
91* WorfHadTheFlu: [[spoiler: "Incomplete Fastus" is nowhere near his true power, and was the only reason the heroes had even the slightest chance of winning.]]
92[[/folder]]
93
94[[folder:Chaos]]
95----
96* TheGhost: Only speaks to Chaos Sect Axe, causing many to doubt their existence.
97* GreaterScopeVillain: Is responsible for Chaos Sect Axe releasing the Planet Devourer Karkadum.
98* RealAfterAll: Chaos Sect Axe is the only one who Chaos has spoken to directly, yet many who come across the former believe that he is making it all up and has no idea what he's doing, or is simply just trying to bend others to his will by claiming it's all the will of a deity.
99[[/folder]]
100
101[[folder:Notos]]
102----
103* CurbStompBattle: He absolutely crushes Zeno in a duel. Literally.
104* DidWeJustHaveTeaWithCthulhu: Ras has a drink with him at a recreation of Garo’s Tavern.
105* TheDreaded: Fastus does not dare venture near his lair, indicating that Notos may be a match for Fastus' full power.
106* ForgedByTheGods: He gives Adventurer Ras his new set of armor.
107* PhysicalGod: As a genuine deity, there is no doubt that he is this, effortlessly slaughtering an extremely powerful being [[ResurrectiveImmortality whose soul is bound to a star]] and who defeated the Heir of the Covenant in one strike.
108* TheWorfEffect: He deals this out to Zeno, who just defeated Ras in a single blow.
109%%* YourHeadAsplode: Does this to Zeno.
110[[/folder]]
111
112[[folder:Tiwig (Unmarked Spoilers)]]
113----
114* DemonicPossession: Implied to be capable of this in a similar manner to Fastus.
115* TheGhost: Never been seen in person due to her nature as a cosmic deity.
116* GreaterScopeVillain: Of Episode Three, ''Hymn of a Wailing Tundra''.
117%%* JerkassGod
118* TheManBehindTheMan: Tiwig is the voice inside Ilynav's head, spurring her on to continue the war.
119* TheRuntAtTheEnd: Although only introduced in Episode Three, her power far exceeds the other Acolytes by an incredible margin.
120* WalkingSpoiler: Much of her character sheet is whited out, and for good reason.
121[[/folder]]
122
123! Guardians
124
125[[folder:In General]]
126Creations of Diche which are made to help the Heirs in fighting the Archdemon.
127----
128* AreaOfEffect: They unleash this to the enemies when summoned
129* BondCreatures: The Guardians are powerful entities bound to their respective special individuals called Heirs. So far, there's Arkasus for Ras, Zeaon for Iseria, Kazran for Yuna, Kromcruz for Ludwig, and Ziegfried for Krau.
130* DeathFromAbove: The available Guardians unleash a devastating attack from off-screen when summoned. Notable of which is Zeaon who arrives in a ThreePointLanding before blasting the opposing team with an explosive laser.
131* DifficultButAwesome: Summoning any of the available Guardians. While their attacks are powerful AreaOfEffect spells that grant some bonuses apart from dealing damage (which also penetrates the enemies' defenses), they can be costly.
132* MissingSecret: The available Guardians have a number next to their icon (similar to how levels are represented in Hero units) and an Enhance button that does nothing for years. These teased that Guardians may be levelled-up in future updates.
133* PVPBalanced: Guardians cannot be summoned in PVP content.
134* SituationalDamageAttack: Their AreaOfEffect attacks scale with factors like the party's total ATK and/or the targets' HP.
135* SummonMagic: Guardians can be called upon in battle provided that you have enough Souls to summon them.
136[[/folder]]
137
138[[folder:Arkasus]]
139!! Arkasus / Arky
140[[quoteright:331:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/epic_seven_arkasus.png]]
141Ras's Guardian, a fluffy animal-like creature who loves sweets.
142----
143* BadLiar: He's friendly with Mercedes right from the start, and denies Ras's accusations that Mercedes gave him food, despite already chewing something in his mouth.
144* BigEater: Arky loves eating. When Ras just woke up after a long sleep, he, Aither and Iseria found out that Arky has been living off snacks for the past two decades.
145* FoodAsBribe: Since Arky won't come close to Ras when the latter just woke up in the Seventh World, Ras had to bait him using snacks.
146* FreudianTrio: With Ras and Mercedes, Ras is the ego, being the one who tries to rein in Arky's hedonism and aids Mercedes in her quest for an identity.
147* InSeriesNickname:
148** The protagonists just call him "Arky", which is what he sticks with when in his [[SleepModeSize pet-sized form]].
149** In "The Village Children's Request" hidden story of Chapter 2S, the child named Cindy called Arky "Mister Wooly".
150* LivingLieDetector: In Chapter 3, Arky doesn't believe that Purrgis is an Heir, because he can't recall him. Purrgis can't fool either Arky or Ras.
151* {{Mascot}}: Arky is the fluffly animal mascot of ''Epic Seven'' and he appears in a lot of promotional artworks and even in-game web events.
152* OffscreenMomentOfAwesome: Unlike Ras who slept for 20 years, Arkasus woke up just in time to fight in the Archdemon War of the Seventh World.
153* RunningGag: Arky has a habit of talking about food, his hunger, [[BigEater eating a lot]], or asking if Ras has snacks with him.
154* SimpleYetAwesome: While his damage output as a Guardian is lower than Zeaon, Arkasus being the cheapest to summon (at 30 Souls) makes him spammable and useful in fights, especially boss battles that drag out long. The team-wide offensive buffs that he gives are also very handy.
155* SituationalDamageAttack:
156* SleepModeSize: As "Arky", he takes the form of a small fluffy, fat cat. As the Guardian Arkasus, he turns into a large wolf-like creature.
157* SnarkToSnarkCombat: In Chapter 1, Iseria calls Arky a "strange lifeform" and Arky retorts by calling Iseria "pointy-ears".
158* TeamPet: He serves as this to Ras and his friends.
159* VitriolicBestBuds: He and his partner Ras bicker all the time, but its clear that they're dependent upon one another.
160[[/folder]]
161
162[[folder:Hanien]]
163A Guardian belonging to an unknown Heir.
164----
165* GoryDiscretionShot: We don't get to see him - all we get to see is Vildred looming over his corpse.
166* SacrificialLamb: Easily the least fleshed-out Guardian, seemingly meant mainly to [[TheWorfEffect demonstrate Vildred's new Ilryos-gifted powers.]] We don't even know who his Heir is.
167* WeHardlyKnewYe: He's killed right as Ras finds him again.
168[[/folder]]
169
170[[folder:Kazran]]
171Yuna's Guardian. Kazran has a cyborg-esque appearance and is known as the Guardian of Time.
172----
173* GodzillaThreshold: Kazran had to form a contract with an Heir so that he could recover from an injury that even time couldn't heal. He sees Yuna as a special individual that can help him, even if the girl [[TrappedInAnotherWorld came from another world and had to be summoned to Orbis]].
174* OminousCube: Time Matter is Kazran's source of power that allows him to control time. It is shaped like a glowing blue Rubik's Cube.
175* TimeMaster: Kazran can manipulate time, such as when he protected Yuna by rewinding time to undo Specter Tenebria's destructive spell.
176* TheWorfEffect: Kazran easily undoes the destruction that Specter Tenebria did in Reingar... simply by rewinding time!
177[[/folder]]
178
179[[folder:Kromcruz]]
180Ludwig's Guardian. He has a monstrous appearance.
181----
182* BarrierMaiden: He acted as a substitute barrier for the Duselnorc Sanctum holding a fragment of the Archdemon's Might.
183* CooldownManipulation: Summoning him in battle also decreases skill cooldowns by 2.
184* HeroicSacrifice: In the past, Kromcruz acted as a substitute for the barrier on the Archdemon’s Might when Ludwig tried to dispel it. Fortunately, he gets resurrected using the creation energy converted by Ras.
185* InSeriesNickname: Ludwig sometimes calls him "Krom".
186* TrueCompanions: The Guardian Kromcruz is very important to Ludwig more than anyone.
187[[/folder]]
188
189[[folder:Zeaon]]
190Ruele's guardian.
191----
192* BehemothBattle: In the prologue, the giants Anghraf and Zeaon fight each other during the Sixth World's war.
193* DifficultButAwesome: Among the available Guardians so far, Zeaon is a perfect example of this trope. His Omega Blaster scales with your team's attack, so the stronger your party is on that turn, the higher his damage output, and he also inflicts a DamageIncreasingDebuff on the enemies. The catch is that he needs 60 souls, which means that you have to hold off the Soul Burn mechanics if you want to summon him. He does see some prominent use in the end-game Labyrinths and the Abyss because those stages can be time-consuming.
194* EverythingMakesAMushroom: When summoned, Zeaon's Omega Blaster creates a nuke-like mushroom explosion after the laser beam.
195[[/folder]]
196
197[[folder:Ziegfried]]
198Krau's Guardian.
199----
200* CoolHorse: Ziegfried looks like an armored horse.
201[[/folder]]
202
203! Spirit Lords
204
205[[folder:In General]]
206* GodsHandsAreTied: Spirit Lords are lower gods who can't leave the world to travel between cosmos. They can still influence the world and select [[TheChosenOne champions]] who gain power from them in return for serving their respective Spirit Lord's interests.

241----
242* FlatCharacter: She doesn't have a backstory, and we don't know anything aside from her name, which was revealed in patch notes. She's just accessible in the tavern if any of your party members are injured in Adventure stages, healing them instantly for a fee.

264* ArtEvolution: The six elemental entities fought in the "Spirit Altar" had their artworks improved in an update, which at last, gave them animated portraits just like the playable characters.
265* ColorCodedElements: Their general color themes match the color of their elements.
266* ElementalHairColors: Their hair colors match their respective elements; red hair for Magnar of the Flame, sea green hair for Aquina of the Sea, light green hair for Herais of the Wind, blonde hair for Ethel of the Light, and black hair for Rahel of the Dark.

313->''[[spoiler: "Mercedes, destroy the enemies before you. Erase all trace of the Goddess from this land."'']]
314----
315* AttackOfThe50FootWhatever: He ''towers'' over the landscape.
316* BehemothBattle: In the prologue, the giants Anghraf and Zeaon fight each other during the Sixth World's war.
317* BigBad: The cause of all the conflict in the story, at least for Episode 1.
318* BodyHorror: He's such an eldritch abonimation with extremely odd anatomy. He has multiple arms, with some of them looking like whips, the flesh on his head extends way backwards to his body, which also gives opening to several eyes, and his chest also contains some eagle-like beast for a head.
319* CombatTentacles: In the Prologue, Anghraf primarily fights using tentacles/whips that can rip apart Heirs.
320* DemonicPossession: He makes his grand return by using Mercedes as a host body.
321* DiscOneFinalBoss: After he's finally eradicated and the Episode 1 story mode is cleared, he mostly loses his relevance as Straze takes the stage for Episode 2. In fact, most of the other continents were unaware of the war between him and Ritania and (wrongly) didn’t even consider him a big enough problem to step in and help solve, possibly because they were more concerned with Straze.
322* EldritchAbomination: Just '''look at him!'''
323* EvilCounterpart: Anghraf to Ras; Both are avatar-like creations of their respective gods.
324* FinalBoss: For Episode 1's story mode while possessing Mercedes.
325* OneWingedAngel: Does this while in control of Mercedes, at first appearing to simply be her with red eyes before impaling Vildred and taking back the remaining Archdemon's Might, transforming her body into a demonic being reminiscent of a cross between an angel and a devil.
326* TheManBehindTheMan: For all the Acolytes and Vildred (indirectly).
327* SealedEvilInASixPack: Queen Diene knows that the Archdemon cannot be truly defeated without the Heir of the Covenant, so in order to prevent it from quickly resurrecting, she had to separate the Archdemon into six parts, distributed into different sanctums all around Ritania - Ezera's Sanctuary Gate Temple, Reingar's Sage Minaret, Dun Blyraia's World Tree, Wetheric Moor's Tagehel Ruins, Duselnorc's Lunar Cemetery, and Taranor's Fountain of Tears..
328* TheSpeechless: Until he enters Mercedes's body at which point he communicates in her mind to destroy Ras.
329* SplitPersonality: Anghraf's voice speaks to Mercedes, telling her to vanquish the enemies before her, and she responds in agreement, implying that she has been corrupted into doing so, yet Anghraf himself is still sharing and controlling her body even though she is the one who speaks aloud during the battle.
330* TheUnfought: His original form is too enormous to be fought, so the heroes are unable to truly stop him until he takes over Mercedes.
331* WhamLine: See his quote above? It’s the first and last time he speaks.

334[[folder:Nilgal]]
335->''"I'll see you in the underworld, boys!"''
336[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/epic_seven_nilgal.png]]
337-->'''Rarity''': 5★
338-->'''Element''': Earth
339-->'''Class''': Warrior
340-->'''Zodiac Sign''': Sagittarius
341
342One of the Acolytes, and a master of poison. He threatens the land of the elves and the World Tree.
343----
344* TheBrute
345* DefeatEqualsExplosion: The twist being that he chooses to explode when he is already mortally injured in order to try to [[TakingYouWithMe take the heroes with him]].
346* DiscOneFinalBoss: The heroes manage to stop him and he self-destructs in only the sixth level of Chapter 5 rather than being fought at the end like Tenebria for Chapters 2 and 6.
347* GracefulLoser: Makes sense considering death is likely never to be permanent for an Acolyte.
348* LargeAndInCharge: As an Acolyte, he only answers directly to the Archdemon, not to mention he towers over most other enemies.
349* MadeOfExplodium: If he so wishes, he may self-destruct when he is already on the brink of death in an attempt to take his opponents with him, although he does not do so in the fight proper, only the cutscene afterwards.
350* OrwellianRetcon: Nilgal was in the Hero Journal for quite some time, listed under the Acolytes group. This led to him having stats, classifications as listed above, and three skills like a playable Hero would. However, he was moved to the Monster Journal in an update.
351* OutOfFocus: He seems to have less screen time and focus than the other two, especially Kayron. It doesn't help that he is out of the story earlier than the other two (before even his own chapter is finished) and he is currently non-playable.
352* PoisonIsEvil: He's an Acolyte and a master of poison.
353* ResurrectiveImmortality: Much like the other two Acolytes.
354* TakingYouWithMe: Self-destructs as he's dying in an attempt to destroy the heroes. Thankfully, they survive.

367
368Former Archpriest of Ezera.
369----
370* AssholeVictim: Thoroughly deserved being slaughtered by Kawerik.
371* TheDogBitesBack: Kawerik does this to him.
372* HoistByHisOwnPetard: He gets killed by one of his own super soldier experiments.
373* KarmicDeath: Murdered by the man he brutally experimented on for years, having drastically reduced his lifespan.
374* PosthumousCharacter: Kawerik killed him offscreen before the events of Episode 1, so we never see him outside of flashbacks.
375* SinisterMinister: Archpriest Noard Riks is one of the most evil characters in the game without any redeeming qualities. He uses the Blue Cross church as his special army, leverages the Saints to manipulate the believers into supporting him, and created tons of artificial soldiers for the war but never made it officially so they had to be secretly disposed. Ironically he was killed by his own creation, Kawerik.
376* WellIntentionedExtremist: This is probably the best thing you could say about him - he was willing to do anything to win the Archdemon War, even making artificial soldiers and experiment on humans.

398[[folder:King Friedrich of Taranor]]
399The king of Taranor, and an old friend of Krau's.
400----
401* BigBadWannabe: Aspires to use Kayron, Vildred, and the Homunculi in order to conquer the planet with the Archdemon's help, but he's really nothing more than Kayron's pawn and turns himself in without a fight when his army begins losing.
402* BrokenPedestal: Krau and Friedrich (back when he was still a Prince) discovered the Homonculus lab of the previous Taranor King, and they confronted him about it. With Kayron's suggestion, Friedrich [[SelfMadeOrphan later killed his own father]].
403%%* DealWithTheDevil: Made one with Kayron.
404* FreudianExcuse: Lost his mother, the shade of Judge Kise, long before he was an adult. His father experimented with Homunculi and even summoned an Acolyte attempting to bring her back, losing himself to obsessiveness in the process.
405* GenerationXerox: Like his father, he went crazy thanks to Homunculi research and Kayron's influence. A slight deviation is that Friedrich aims to use the Homonculi to conquer Orbis.
406%%* NonActionBigBad
407%%* PuppetKing
408* SanitySlippage: When he appears in ''Eulogy of a Saint'', he's relatively rational and is willing to listen to what Diene has to say. But various other side stories show him losing himself as he reacts to his newfound circumstances; discovering the Homunculus lab and meeting Kayron is the straw that breaks the camel's back. By the time of Episode 1, he's a crazed shell of his former self and has grown as insane as his father.
409[[/folder]]
410
411[[folder:Katis]]
412President of the Reingar Public Security Club, and Karin's superior.
413----
414* TheTurretMaster: Though he doesn't fight himself, he's in command of Reingar's robot artillery and acts as Kikirat's partner in battle.
415[[/folder]]
416
417[[folder:Gusma]]
418A Merchant who was saved by Ras, Akry and Mercedes on their way to Reingar.
419----
420* ChekhovsGunman: He's the merchant at the beginning of Chapter 2 who escorts Ras, Arky and Mercedes to the entrance of Reingar as a sign of gratitude. It's then revealed that he was the one who gave Yuna the dark magic stone that made her machine go berserk. Later on, Gusma helped in summoning an Acolyte in their attempt to make Plum become the President of Reingar.
421[[/folder]]
422
423[[folder:Plum]]
424A member of the Public Security club of Reingar. He's a little fed up with the others' zealousness.
425----
426* BigBadWannabe: Along with Gusma, he tries to summon an Acolyte to give him more authority over Reingar, but she just puts him in a dream about it instead.
427* TheBusCameBack: Returns in the Seven Sweethearts event, still with a bone to pick against Karin and the Public Security club.
428* {{Foil}}: Yuna came from another world, chosen by the Guardian Kazran to be an Heir and the Student Council President. However, she has been rejecting the roles simply because [[IJustWantToBeFree she wants to have the freedom to do want she wants]], or live a normal life. Plum, on the other hand, [[IJustWantToBeSpecial wanted to be someone special]], and sees the Student Council Presidency as a chance to fulfill his dream and to look down on those who laugh at him. Plum hates Yuna for casually throwing away the position offered to her, something that he had to work hard in trying to obtain.
429* FreudianExcuse: Unspecified, but considering how he holds a grudge against people who are "born talented", it's possible that he had to work hard to get where he is at the beginning of Episode 1.
430* GodzillaThreshold: Plum intends to summon an Acolyte in his desperation of becoming the Student Council President of Reingar. It backfires on him as the Acolyte Tenebria doesn't want to be ordered around.
431* IJustWantToBeSpecial: Plum sees the position of Student Council president as something that gives power and the chance to be someone special, so he wants to have it at all costs, even summoning an Acolyte.
432* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Karin noticed that Plum is taking the confiscated dark magic stone somewhere other than the Public Security Club, so she suggested the idea of secretly following him. They found out that Plum is working with Gusma to summon an Acolyte.

435[[folder:Nehenqui]]

437Leader of the Nehenqui Merchant guild, a sleazy and direputable man.
438----
439* DiabolicalMastermind: He's behind the Dark Stone trade in Savara.
440** Zig-zagged in the ''Thieves under the Light of the Full Moon'' event. When the rumors of sabotaging the event first arise, Nehenqui is the first guy Basar suspects thanks to his rough history. Naturally, Nehenqui vehemently denies his involvement. [[spoiler: Turns out he ''was'' behind some of the suspicious activity, but it was only because Markus blackmailed him into doing it by threatening to kick him out of the Emporium.]]
441* DirtyCoward: Willing to do anything to profit, or save his skin.
442* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Nehenqui "helps" the heroes by pointing them to the direction of the missing Guardian. Ras is wary since he's acting like an ally despite being the suspect of the dark magic stone trade. He's proven right in the end, it's just part of Nehenqui's plan to distract the heroes while he escapes.

449----
450* BrokenPedestal: After Vildred tells him the truth about the world, Morfid realizes that his religion is a huge farce and [[GoMadFromTheRevelation snaps.]]
451* FaceHeelTurn: Abandons Ras and lowers the barrier for Vildred after he learns the truth.
452* FantasticRacism: Is utterly ''horrified'' when he sees Mercedes, a Homunculus, with Ras.

482----
483* BigBadWannabe: Tries to use Ranok in order to control all of Witchaven, but Ranok immediately rips her apart.
484* EvilIsNotAToy: Shouldn't have tried summoning and controlling a ''dragon'', now, should we?
485%%* EvilOldFolks
486* FamousAncestor: She's a descendant of one of the past Witchaven citylords, and this is part of why she sees herself more fit to rule Witchaven – Vivian has no such history.

497%%* BackFromTheDead
498* BigBadWannabe: He thinks of himself as a great summoner, but in truth he mostly just plays second fiddle to Rango's schemes.
499* CutsceneBoss: Killed easily in a cutscene by Kawerik.
500* ADayInTheLimelight:
501** One of the side stories in ''Godkiller'' Chapter 9 focuses on him being brought BackFromTheDead and trying to figure out what to do.

510%%* OurDragonsAreDifferent
511* SealedEvilInACan: In another dimension, in fact.
512* SmallRoleBigImpact: He's only featured in ''Godkiller'' Chapter 4, but he is mentioned numerous times after in order to allude to the machinations of the Great One.

521----
522* BusCrash: The Flame Heart Chief shows up again in the Chapter 9 battle against Perland. After Lilias attacks Khawana, he intercepts her and is impaled by her sword, begging for Khawazu and Khawana to flee before dying.
523* EliteMook: The three Chiefs' portraits are based on the various generic Mook enemies in the Muhr zones.
524* ForgottenFallenFriend: Neither of the two surviving Chiefs, nor Khawazu or Khawana, mention the Flame Heart Chief in the Meldrec festival side story, even after his death.
525* ILetGwenStacyDie: The Lava Vein Chief still feels conflicted over losing so many of his tribesmen when the lava rivers overflowed. He feels that he could have prevented them from disobeying Khawazu and getting themselves killed had he been a better leader and had greater control over his villagers.
526* UntrustingCommunity: The three of them split their tribes off into individual states thanks to their contempt for each other. As a result, when Ras arrives, they're instantly suspicious of an outsider waltzing in and demanding to see Malicus.
