52	!!Unlockable Characters
53	[[folder:Ruru Gerard]]
54	[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lulu_gerald.jpg]]
55	-->'''Origin''': ''VideoGame/MagicalBattleArena''
56	-->'''Weapon''': Exa-Drill
57	* AntiVillain: Type-III. Hey, she's JustFollowingOrders here.
58	* ArtificialHuman: [[spoiler:Though it wasn't outright stated in the backstory, presumably she too was created to keep Kyrios up and running.]]
59	* TheDragon: Serves as this to Nowel. [[spoiler:Doesn't stop her from turning against her in their stories though.]]
60	* FinalBoss: [[spoiler:If using Nowel in story mode, she'll play this role.]]
61	* HeelFaceTurn: [[spoiler:Both her story and Nowel's culminate in her switching sides to the heroes to stop Nowel.]]
62	* MacrossMissileMassacre: Her ranged special.
63	* OriginalGeneration: One of two made for this game alongside Nowel.
64	* PutOnABus: She's noticeably absent in ''NEXT'', which is especially strange since that game focuses more on TagTeam battles than this one, and Nowel is fought on her own there.
65	* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld
66	* SixthRanger: [[spoiler:Both her story and Nowel's have her joining the heroes to stop the former.]]
67	* ThisIsADrill: From her signature weapon Exa-Drill, to her pigtails, her shoes and launching drills at her enemies, she's arguably the most triumphant example of this trope.
68	[[/folder]]
69
70	[[folder:Nowel Diastasis]]
71	[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/nowel_diastasis.jpg]]

76	%%* BigBad

79	* OriginalGeneration: One of two made for this game alongside Ruru.
80	* PillarOfLight: Her Desperation Attack.
81	%%* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld
82	* SpamAttack: Her other Desperation Attack.
83	%%* WellIntentionedExtremist: [[spoiler:She only wants to ensure that TheMultiverse doesn't get torn apart by dimension quakes. And if that means sacrificing mages to keep Kyrios up and running, then so be it.]]
84	* YouCantFightFate: Her main belief regarding [[spoiler:the fate of the Telos]]. This leads to her [[ScrewDestiny getting her arse handed to her]] by the heroines.
85	[[/folder]]
86
87	[[folder:Gadget Drone Type-I]]
88	[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/gadget_drone_type_i.jpg]]
89	-->'''Origin''': ''Anime/MagicalGirlLyricalNanohaStrikerS''
90	-->'''Weapon''': ???
91	* CombatTentacles: Its primary weapon, though it reaches into rather creepy territory with its rather suggestive-looking melee attack.
92	* JokeCharacter: With only two specials, no supers and little HP, it pretty much serves as cannon fodder for the other heroines.
93	* MechaMooks
94	[[/folder]]
95
96	!!Added in v1.01~v1.05+
97	[[folder:Lina Inverse]]

101	* BadassBack: Her Desperation Attack.
102	* HarmlessFreezing: Her ''Freeze Arrow'' attack.
103	* PlayingWithFire: Her ''Fire Ball'' and ''Gaav Flare'' attacks.
104	[[/folder]]
105
106	[[folder:Naga the White Serpent]]
107	[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/naga_the_white_serpent.jpg]]
108	-->'''Origin''': ''Literature/{{Slayers}}''
109	-->'''Weapon''': Sword
110	* {{Golem}}: Her Desperation Attack has her summon one to lay the smackdown on her enemies.
111	* HarmlessFreezing: Her ''Freeze Arrow'' attack.
112	* AnIcePerson: Her ''Dynast Breath'' attack.
113	* NoblewomansLaugh: Loves to indulge in this, to the chagrin of others. It also serves as the basis of her aforementioned Desperation Attack.
114	* {{Stripperiffic}}: Isn't it obvious?
115	[[/folder]]
116
117	[[folder:Kukuri]]
118	[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kukuri_8.jpg]]
119	-->'''Origin''': ''Manga/MagicalCircleGuruGuru''
120	-->'''Weapon''': Magic Wand
121	* GravitySucks: ''Mini Planet''.
122	* LethalJokeCharacter
123	* ManaBurn: ''Long Voiced Cat'', which depletes her opponent's ChargeMeter.
124	* NonStandardCharacterDesign: Her SuperDeformed looks stand out compared to the other characters, who otherwise have somewhat more realistic proportions (anime faces notwithstanding).
125	* SuperDeformed
126	[[/folder]]
127
128	!!Introduced in ''Lyrical Pack''
129	[[folder:Hayate Yagami]]
130	[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/hayate_yagami.jpg]]
131	-->'''Origin''': ''Anime/MagicalGirlLyricalNanohaAs''
132	-->'''Weapon''': Schwertkreuz + Tome of the Night Sky
133	* GlassCannon: She's got some of the strongest special offense in the game, capable of taking large chunks of health off her opponents. The only problem is, she has to stand perfectly still and has to charge her moves before firing them, making her a sitting duck to anyone who gets too close for comfort.
134	* AnIcePerson: Her ''Atem des Eis'' attack.
135	* ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill: Her Desperation Attack has her summon Nanoha and Fate and use their ''Starlight Breaker'', ''Plasma Zamber Breaker'' and ''Ragnarök Breaker'' attacks all at once on her foe. [[spoiler:This was originally used to stun the Book of Darkness' Darkness (an EldritchAbomination so powerful that not even ''entire armies'' could stop it) in the original source material.]]
136	* ThrowTheBookAtThem: She can lob her Tome of the Night Sky at her enemies.
137	[[/folder]]
138
139	[[folder:Vita]]
140	[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/vita.jpg]]
141	-->'''Origin''': ''Anime/MagicalGirlLyricalNanohaAs''
142	-->'''Weapon''': Graf Eisen
143	* BerserkButton: ''Don't'' shoot her hat off. You'll just make her mad. Nanoha herself learned that the hard way. It also serves as the basis of her Desperation Attack.
144	[[/folder]]
145
146	[[folder:Nanoha Takamachi ([=StrikerS=])]]
147	[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/nanoha_takamachi_strikers.jpg]]
148	-->'''Origin''': ''Anime/MagicalGirlLyricalNanohaStrikerS''
149	-->'''Weapon''': Raising Heart Excelion
150	* AttackDrone: Utilizes Blaster Bits in battle.
151	* CastFromHitPoints: The side-effect of using her Blaster System.
152	* GlassCannon: When in Blaster mode, she can hit way harder than everyone else. The only problem is that using it drains her health.
153	* WaveMotionGun: Pretty damn obvious, really. Her normal super's the Blaster-3 Starlight Breaker (''five simultaneous Starlight Breakers aimed at a single target from multiple directions'') [[spoiler:that Vivio wound up on the receiving end of in ''StrikerS'']]. It does even more damage than her Desperation Attack and even if your opponent managed to get away from the beams, chances are that the resulting shockwave will do them in what with it being so huge that an entire stamina bar is needed to escape from it on larger maps. And on smaller ones? [[YouAreAlreadyDead Well]]...

155
156	!!Added in v1.53+~v1.54+
157	[[folder:The Lord of Nightmares]]
158	[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lord_of_nightmares.jpg]]
159	-->'''Origin''': ''Literature/{{Slayers}}''
160	-->'''Weapon''': ???
161	* CastFromHitPoints: Literally. Every time she attacks or flies, she loses HP. [[spoiler:This is a reference to the original source material, where every time she attacked Phibrizo, her hold on Lina decreased until she eventually lost possession of her body.]]
162	* CreepyMonotone: Speaks in an eerie, emotionless tone.
163	* GoldenSuperMode: Glows with a golden shine, and probably would have been able to kick Ruru and Nowel's butts if she had appeared in story mode.
164	* PurposelyOverpowered: Appropriately enough, she's this.
165	[[/folder]]
166
167	[[folder:Old Man North North]]
168	[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/old_man_north_north.jpg]]

176	[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fate_t_harlaown_strikers.jpg]]
177	-->'''Origin''': ''Anime/MagicalGirlLyricalNanohaStrikerS''
178	-->'''Weapon''': Bardiche Assault
179	* DualWielding: Does this in her Sonic form.
180	* ShockAndAwe
181	* StanceSystem: She can switch between her default form and her FragileSpeedster Sonic mode at will.
182	* {{Stripperiffic}}: In her Sonic form. Not as much as Naga, but it's there.
183	[[/folder]]

185	[[folder:Magic Knights]]
186	!!Hikaru Shidou, Umi Ryuuzaki and Fuu Hououji
187	[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/magic_knights.jpg]]
188	[[caption-width-right:300:Left to right: Umi, Hikaru and Fuu]]
189	-->'''Origin''': ''Anime/MagicKnightRayearth''
190	-->'''Weapon''': Sword of Light (Hikaru), Sword of the Sea (Umi), Sword of Wind (Fuu)
191	* HumongousMecha: Their Desperation Attack has them call upon a giant robot to lay the smackdown on their enemies.
192	* MakingASplash: Umi's ''Aoi Tatsumaki''.
193	* PlayingWithFire: Hikaru's ''Honou no Ya''.
194	* ShockAndAwe: Hikaru's ''Akai Inazuma''.
195	* TagTeam: Their main gimmick. While only one girl can be active in battle, they can switch places with each other depending on the special attack used.
