11 | !!Lord Reese of Sinon |
12 | |
13 | [[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/6egidx7_d.jpg]] |
14 | |
15 | Heir to the March of Sinon, and the son of Margrave Bernstol. He is the main hero of the game. |
16 | |
17 | -> '''Class:''' Lord > Knight Lord |
18 | |
19 | * CantDropTheHero: Averted when it comes to Sidequests and Paralogues, where both him and Ward can't be used due to the possibly of being called by the King. The only exceptions are Exile Island and Heretic God, both of which are mandatory. |
20 | |
21 | * CountryMouse: Being a lowly lord of a recently added territory comprised of native tribes, he is continually mocked and underestimated by both King Volcens and his DecadentCourt. |
22 | |
23 | * AFatherToHisMen: Reese is a man who commands the respect and loyalty of his soldiers by actually interacting with them on a more personal level and even helping them with their problems. This trait earns him the UndyingLoyalty of the mercenary characters upon the completion of their side quests, resulting in their permanent recruitment. |
24 | |
25 | * HeroProtagonist: The main protagonist of Berwick Saga and a heroic person. |
26 | |
27 | * LittleHeroBigWar: Being a lowly prince of a backwater borderland leading only 100 troops (in comparison to the other military leaders leading tens of thousands), he and his knights most of the time are tasked with relatively minor missions, such as buying time in order to evacuate troops or civilians from harm's way, and some of these are an obvious attempt by King Volcens and his DecadentCourt in order to kill or discredit him. However, the fact that he and his knights always fulfill their duties, no matter how minor, leads to them to be trusted with important and conflict decisive missions. |
28 | |
29 | * MadeOfIron: Has the Robust skill, making him immune to being crippled. |
30 | |
31 | * HeroesPreferSwords |
32 | |
33 | * InstantExpert: He has the Expert skill that lets him wield weapons seven levels higher than his current level. |
34 | |
35 | * InfinityMinusOneSword: At the beginning of Chapter 5, he gains the Gram Sword, a powerful personal weapon with a high critical rate that grants him an additional strike and acts as a [[LastChanceHitPoint Miracle Charm]], although it automatically breaks the weapon regardless of the amount of durability points left. |
36 | |
37 | * InfinityPlusOneSword: Given by Princess Sienna herself at the beginning of Chapter 13, the Nothung Sword grants an additional 15+ light elemental damage, a 15+ resistance to dark magic, and it recovers all of it's durability points at the beginning of every chapter. |
38 | |
39 | * MagikarpPower: Reese starts off as rather mediocre due to his middling base stats but he has the highest HP and Def growths and respectable ones in Str and Agi that'll let him become a LightningBruiser if properly leveled. Later, he gains powerful swords such as the [[InfinityMinusOneSword Gram]] and the [[InfinityPlusOneSword Nothung]] that massively boosts his effectiveness in combat. |
40 | |
41 | * NaiveNewcomer: He is utterly unprepared at facing the DecadentCourt of King Volcens and is often reprimanded by Duke Roswick not to openly offend the paranoid king and his closest advisors who already have a low opinion of him. |
42 | |
43 | * LightningBruiser: Given favourable growths along with the personal weapons he obtains throughout the story, he'll eventually become a powerful force to be reckoned with. |
44 | |
45 | * PragmaticHero: Begins to grow into this as he becomes wiser to the DecadentCourt of King Volcens. This is best shown by how he deals with Laurentia's imprisonment: He bribes the jailer in order for him to allow her to join in his battles, and once he promotes into a Knight Lord and asks King Volcens himself of her release, he has the jailer falsely arrested for embezzlement charges to make sure he doesn't talk. |
46 | |
47 | * WeCannotGoOnWithoutYou: Just like every ''Fire Emblem'' lord, his death results in a Game Over. |

56 | |
57 | -> '''Class:''' Veteran Knight |
58 | |
59 | A veteran knight of Sinon, he is Reese's right-hand man and advisor. |
60 | |
61 | * CantDropTheHero: Subverted. Similar to Reese, he cannot be used in Sidequests and Paralogues outside of the mandatory Exile Island and Heretic God, but unlike Reese, you don't have to deploy him during main chapters. |
62 | |
63 | * CrutchCharacter: Albeit one that remains viable through the game. |
64 | |
65 | * CoolSword: Is initially armed with the Knight Sword, a powerful weapon that grants the user an additional strike during an attack and is quite durable to boot. |
66 | |
67 | * {{Deuteragonist}}: More or less fills this role due to being Reese's right-hand man. This also extends to gameplay, where just like Reese, [[WeCannotGoOnWithoutYou his death results in a Game Over]]. |
68 | |
69 | * MadeOfIron: Has the Robust skill, making him immune to being crippled. |
70 | |
71 | * MarriedToTheJob: Due to the stresses of being a commander to the Sinon Knights, he barely had the time to visit his sick wife and his daughter, Christine. This results in Christine herself essentially disowning her own father for his neglect. |
72 | |
73 | * OlderSidekick: Though he is often the more emotional and outspoken one when appearing alongside Reese in cutscenes. |
74 | |
75 | * TakingTheBullet: Has the Guard skill that allows him to shield an ally by forcing the opponent to initate a fight against him instead of the protected character. |
76 | |
77 | * SecretKeeper: [[spoiler:He's well aware of Lanette's real identity as the last surviving member of the Royal Duchy of Serenia]]. |
78 | |
79 | * SergeantRock: As the general of Sinon's knights and Reese's right hand man, he is quite strict and stern and sometimes questions Reese's decisions, but is ultimately a good and reasonable figure. |
80 | |
81 | * WeCannotGoOnWithoutYou: Similar to Reese, his death results in a Game Over. |

88 | |
89 | [[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/zymm2dc_d.jpg]] |
90 | |
91 | -> '''Class:''' Spear Knight -> Lance Knight |
92 | |
93 | A knight of Sinon, he is a hot-blooded and a fierce fighter. |
94 | |
95 | * AttackAttackAttack: His Deatchmatch skill forces an enemy to battle him five times in a normal battle, enabling him to utterly kill an enemy unit or he gets killed instead if he's unlucky. If the weapon he's currently equipped with breaks, he'll be rendered helpless as the enemy unit relentlessly attacks him. |
96 | |
97 | * BadassNative: Initially belonged to the native tribes of Sinon along with Adel and Sherlock before being knighted. |
98 | |
99 | * BigBrotherMentor: His personal story has him become this to a young boy named Jean, entrusted upon him [[spoiler:by his ill grandmother after her death]]. Hilariously, [[spoiler:he didn't realize that "he" was actually a she due to neglecting to read the back part of the letter that the grandmother left before she died]]. |
100 | |
101 | * CrutchCharacter: Leon is an excellent character in the early stages of the game, having the Deathmatch skill that allows him to continually attack an enemy for five rounds and essentially destroying them if he keeps getting hits. However, his usefulness lessens as the game goes on due to his average stats and growths, and the fact that he needs Adel (another crutch character) to boost his stats using the Supporter skill. |
102 | |
103 | * JavelinThrower: Learns the Throw skill at level 11, enabling him to throw javelins at an additional +10 hit when using throwing spears and javelins, then it allows him to re-equip his previous weapon automatically. |
104 | |
105 | * JoustingLance: Is able to use them once he promotes to Lance Knight. |
106 | |
107 | * LightningBruiser: Being a mounted unit with the ability to retreat using the Canto skill if he has any remaining movement points, and with Adel backing him up using the Supporter skill, and if he consistently hits an enemy with Deathmatch, he'll be a force to be reckoned with. |
108 | |
109 | * MadeOfIron: Has the Robust Skill, making him immune to being crippled. |
110 | |
111 | * RedOniBlueOni: He's the HotBlooded Red Cavalier when compared to the reserved Adel. |
112 | |
113 | * ThoseTwoGuys: With Adel, especially in-gameplay due to both sharing the Supporter skill that boosts both of their stats if they are nearby during battle. |
114 | |

116 | |
117 | [[folder:Adel]] |
118 | |
119 | !!Adel |
120 | |
121 | [[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/zt1dbqy_d.jpg]] |
122 | |
123 | -> '''Class:''' Spear Knight -> Lance Knight |
124 | |
125 | A knight of Sinon, he has a modest personality in contrast to his partner Leon. |
126 | |
127 | * ActionInitiative: Has the Vantage skill that lets him attack first if his speed stat surpasses the enemy's even if they attacked first. |
128 | |
129 | * BadassNative: Initially belonged to the native tribes of Sinon along with Leon and Sherlock before being knighted. |
130 | |
131 | * CanNotSpitItOut: His reserved nature prevents him from even speaking to Lumiere regarding his feelings, prompting Leon to give him advice on how to do so. |
132 | |
133 | * CrutchCharacter: While Adel is excellent during the early stages of the game, his low stats and growths renders his Vantage skill useless as the enemies grow powerful, his reliance with Leon to boost his stats, and the appearance of more powerful cavalry units means he'll likely be benched sooner than later. |
134 | |
135 | * FarmBoy: Implied with him having the unique skill to equip Pitchforks. |
136 | |
137 | * JavelinThrower: He has the Throw skill which gives him additional +10 hit when using throwing spears and javelins, then it allows him to re-equip his previous weapon automatically. |
138 | |
139 | * LuckilyMyShieldWillProtectMe: Learns the Shieldfaire skill at level 7, making him far more likely to use his shield to reduce incoming physical damage. |
140 | |
141 | * RedOniBlueOni: He's the reserved Green Cavalier when compared to the HotBlooded Leon. |
142 | |
143 | * RescueRomance: He later saves Lumiere from the Vail Pirates who kidnapped her alongside the other female victims, intending to force the Navarron Atelier to pay for her ransom or else she'll be sold to as a SexSlave. [[spoiler:This act already serves to increase her affections for Adel, leading to them become an OfficialCouple]]. |
144 | |
145 | * PrecociousCrush: Towards Lumiere, the female Alchemist who works in the Atelier. |
146 | |
147 | * ThoseTwoGuys: With Leon, especially in-gameplay due to both sharing the Supporter skill that boosts both of their stats if they are nearby during battle. |

154 | |
155 | [[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/2inqe6m_d.jpg]] |
156 | |
157 | -> '''Class:''' Horseman > Bow Knight |
158 | |
159 | He is a young horse archer of Sinon who works tirelessly day and night to hone his skill. |
160 | |
161 | * BadassNative: Initially belonged to the native tribes of Sinon along with Adel and Leon before being knighted. However, his way of dressing and conversations with Ophelia makes him embody this trope more than them. |
162 | |
163 | * DeathOfAThousandCuts: His unique skills such as Multishot (lets him strike twice at the cost of lowered hitrates) and Opportunity Shot (occasionally lets him attack again) means he'll be able to attack a single opponent multiple times or attack two opponents in a single turn. |
164 | |
165 | * FragileSpeedster: High speed stat, low defense. Trained well and he becomes a GlassCannon instead. |
166 | |
167 | * HorseArcher: His standard class. |
168 | |
169 | * MagikarpPower: Starts off as being weak and having low hitrates when he attacks but if trained well and given good bows to use, his good growth rates in speed and strength alongside with his skills makes him a formidable force to be reckoned with. His promotion even improves his Mutlishot skill, letting him shoot three times and gives him a horse that has good HP and adds an additional movement point that further increases his mobility. |
170 | |
171 | * PowerfulButInaccurate: At the early stages of the game, Sherlock's ability to hit 3 to 4 times is neutered by his low hitrates, making him miss even in ideal terrain. It also doesn't help that his Multishot skill suffers a -5% hitrate. |
172 | |
173 | * PrecociousCrush: He often goes to the local tavern in Navarron to listen to the singer Ophelia, in which his personal sidequest has him involved with her problems. |

183 | |
184 | -> '''Class:''' Cavalier > Paladin |
185 | |
186 | A knight of Sinon, serves as Ward's second-in-command and is revered as a big brother by the younger knights. |
187 | |
188 | * AnnoyingArrows: Having the Arrowsbane skill lets him treat shots from bows, crossbows and even ballistas as this due to the skill automatically reducing their accuracy to 33%. This and having the Provoke skill lets him be the perfect tank to protect weaker units from projectiles. |
189 | |
190 | * BigFun: For a powerful individual, he is quite jovial and boisterous, being able to lighten up the rather cynical Christine. |
191 | |
192 | * BroodingBoyGentleGirl: Inverted, as he is the cheerful and down-to-earth guy who provides a much needed ear for Christine. |
193 | |
194 | * IShallTauntYou: His Provoke skill draws the attention of a single enemy unit towards him. |
195 | |
196 | * LightningBruiser: Has high stats when compared with the other starting Sinon Knights besides Ward. Appropriately, he serves as Ward's second-in-command. |
197 | |
198 | * LuckilyMyShieldWillProtectMe: Learns the Shieldfaire skill at level 11, making him far more likely to use his shield to reduce incoming physical damage. |
199 | |
200 | * TakingTheBullet: Using his Provoke skill on an archer or ballistician, he'll be able to shield vulnerable allies due to his skill Arrowbane decreasing his chances of being hit. |

210 | |
211 | -> '''Class:''' Lady Knight > Arrow Knight |
212 | |
213 | Christine is a knight of Sinon and Ward's daughter. She is kindhearted and skilled with crossbows. |
214 | |
215 | * AllGirlsLikePonies: Implied by her having the Horse Lover skill, which restores the HP of the horse she's currently riding when advancing to the next chapter. Alongside her Swap Horse skill that lets her switch horses with another unit, this is useful for healing the horses of various units. |
216 | |
217 | * AlwaysAccurateAttack: She has the Aim skill, which increases the hitrates of her current attack by 50%, but it can only be used during her standby phase. |
218 | |
219 | * BoringButPractical: Unlike her fellow horse archer Sherlock who starts off with multishot skills but is inaccurate at the very start of the game and requires heavy investment to be good, Christine needs little maintenance as her weapon of choice (crossbows) allows her to deal good damage without relying on her strength stat, the Aim option allows her to consistently hit targets, her Armsthrift skill ensures her weapons will last longer than usual before they break, and her Horse-Lover and Swap Horse skills provide an effective way to heal horses. |
220 | |
221 | * BreakableWeapons: Her Armsthrift skill randomly prevents weapons that she equipped from losing their durability points during battle. This makes her a cost-efficient unit to use as she'll less frequently need to replace her weapons. |
222 | |
223 | * BroodingBoyGentleGirl: Inverted, as Christine is the cynical and brooding girl while her comrade Elbert is the cheerful one who often gently gives Christine a much needed ear to her parental issues and cynicism towards the war. |
224 | |
225 | * TheCynic: Due to her background, she has a less-than-ideal view regarding military life, questioning why some soldiers would abandon their loved ones and choose to live and die in battle. When Arnold, a young man who was forcibly conscripted by the Raze Empire, wishes to be strong like her, Christine coldly remarks that he shouldn't envy her and that the life of a soldier is something she doesn't enjoy. |
226 | |
227 | * HorseArcher: Though she is much better at using crossbows than conventional bows, to begin with. |
228 | |
229 | * GlassCannon: Using Crossbows enables her to dish good damage but requires her to stay at melee range. Her low strength and HP makes it a dangerous task if she gets hit. |
230 | |
231 | * KnightInSourArmor: Despite being cynical regarding the idea of being a soldier, she is a kind girl who will do the right thing. |
232 | |
233 | * OnlyChildSyndrome: After seeing Esteban and his sister Arina bicker after convincing him to stop resorting to banditry, she comments to Elbert when she was little, she wished to have an older brother take care of her and her mother due to Ward being almost completely absent from their lives due to the stresses of being the General of Sinon. |
234 | |
235 | * WhenYouComingHomeDad: Her main reason of resentment towards her father Ward. |
236 | |
237 | * YoureNotMyFather: Holds this view towards her father Ward for essentially abandoning his family due to being MarriedToTheJob. |

248 | |
249 | -> '''Class:''' Cleric > Priestess |
250 | |
251 | She is a cleric from Leia who is ladylike and tidy. |
252 | |
253 | * BoringButPractical: She is only good at healing when compared to the other priests who have special abilities but she does it effectively and can be a good backup healer. |
254 | |
255 | * CrutchCharacter: The only available healer early in the game. You don't get another cleric-type character until Chapter 4. In the late game, Paramythis can heal and fight while on horseback, rendering Izerna less useful. |
256 | |
257 | * CrimeMagnet: Like many early priests in ''Fire Emblem'', you meet her when she has been unwittingly lured by bandits to take advantage of her kindness, and later, [[spoiler:she is one of the four maidens kidnapped by the Raze Church to be sacrificed and killed alongside the Apostle]]. In gameplay terms, she also tends to be a victim of this, although you later can give her a Holy orb that gives her an offensive attack, but it can't kill an enemy. |
258 | |
259 | * GradualRegeneration: Has the Blessing skill that passively heals 3 HP at the start of each turn to any allied units in a 3-hex radius. |
260 | |
261 | * HolyHandGrenade: Is capable of using the only non-class locked offensive light magic, the Holy Orb, which grants her the Vantage skill but always leaves the enemy at 1 HP regardless of damage dealt. |
262 | |
263 | * InstantExpert: Learns the Expert skill at level 6, enabling her to use the more advanced Light orbs seven levels higher than her current level. |
264 | |
265 | * LongLostRelative: [[spoiler: Percival is her younger brother, having been separated from her when they were very young. Having Percival attack the Raze Priest who's holding her captive during Heretic God is required for his permanent recruitment]]. |
266 | |
267 | * PluckyGirl: Despite being a demure healer, she is willing to brave the dangers of war in order to help people in need of her healing abilities as a priestess. She is also [[spoiler:quite willing to call out Dean for how his thirst for vengeance is warping him for the worst]]. |
268 | |
269 | * RealTimeWeaponChange: Learns the Versatile skill upon her promotion as a Priestess, which allows her to re-equip her previous equipment after using non-combat spell. This allows her to use her healing and status curing orbs while re-equiping her Holy Orb in-case she is attacked by a melee enemy. |
270 | |
271 | * UtilityPartyMember: Terrible at fighting but provides invaluable supports skills such as healing damage or curing status effects. |

284 | |

286 | |
287 | * ArmyScout: Her skills Hide and Watchful enable her to be an effective scout able to safely hide and observe enemy units. |
288 | |
289 | * BornInTheSaddle: She is a member of the Tania clan, a village where horses are such a big part of their lives that they give their children their very own foals on their 10th birthdays so they can learn to care for them. |
290 | |
291 | * CoolHorse: Accquires and cares for an abused and temperamental foal who she eventually names Tico, which becomes her personal ride after her promotion that gives her excellent boosts in stats and mobility. |
292 | |
293 | * DeviousDaggers: As expected of a thief, she can fight with knives, with their unique gameplay mechanics making her useful at forcing an injury to an enemy unit in order to cripple and capture them and even be quite useful in damaging units with a high defense stat. |
294 | |
295 | * FragileSpeedster: Has high speed coupled with the Adept skill but has low-to-zero stats in defense and strength and deals low (but completely unblockable) damage with her knives. |
296 | |
297 | * LovableRogue: She's a cheerful and rather outspoken girl. |
298 | |
299 | * LostPetGrievance: When she was just a child, Czene had her own horse named Tico whom she deeply cared for until one day, when she was playing with her friends, her horse got lost and by the time they found her, she was found dead on the bottom of a cliff. She regrets her negligence and it forms her motivation to care for another injured foal who she also eventually names Tico. |
300 | |
301 | * MagikarpPower: Starts off as a weak FragileSpeedster useful only for her thief skills, but her promotion gives her a unique mount that gives her Damage +1, Agility +5, Movement +1 to her stats and improves her Mug skill from being only able to steal an unequipped item to a stealing any of the enemy's items, even equipped items, limited only 2 times per map and being able to steal rare items. |
302 | |
303 | * VideoGameStealing: Has the Mug skill that gives her a percentage chance of stealing an unequipped item on hit and later upon her promotion to as a Grassrunner, she gains the Mug+ skill that let's her randomly steal any item, including equipped weapons and accessories from the enemy. |
304 | |
305 | * SeeTheInvisible: Has the Watchful skill that let's her reveal hidden enemies within 3 hexes away from her. |
306 | |
307 | * StealthExpert: Has the skill Hide that enables her to turn invisible at certain terrains. |
308 | |
309 | * UtilityPartyMember: Her usefulness shines in her skills as a thief who can open locked doors and search for hidden items and enemies. |
310 | |
311 | * WeakButSkilled: Comes with low strength, HP and defense stats that rule her out as a combat unit but compensates with several other useful abilities that allow her to assist when fielded in ways very few characters can replicate. |

329 | * LastChanceHitPoint: Has the Miracle skill, that gives her the chance to evade lethal hits when low on HP. |
330 | |
331 | * PowerfulButInaccurate: Suffers from a low hitrate that can hamper her use of Pallas Riana despite having the ability to hit four times in a row. |
332 | |
333 | * RevengeBeforeReason: Despite her acknowledgement of her inexperience with magic and inability to seriously fend for herself, she's still adamant on taking revenge on the Razelian priests who killed her family. |
334 | ** This comes to a head in her ending event, where [[spoiler: she, along with Sherpa and Rosalie, encouter the group responsible for the death of her parents, wherein she refuses Sherpa's help and outright tells him to never show his face if she defeats them on her own, subsequently leading her to the wrong end of a CurbStompBattle. It's only through Sherpa's intervention saving her life and Rosalie's words afterwards that she realizes the error of her ways]]. |
335 | |
336 | * SquishyWizard: She can be quite effective against units with a high defense stat, but she'll suffer if attacked due to having low stats in speed and defense. |
337 | |

356 | * DefectorFromDecadence: Either joins the Sinon Knights or quits being a soldier out of disgust due to King Volcens' refusal to help him and his retreating men after a disastrous defeat, considering them traitors for leaving the front line. |
357 | |
358 | * DeathOrGloryAttack: He has Pulverize skill, which doubles his attack power at the cost of reducing his defense to 0. He can still use his shield to reduce the incoming damage. |
359 | |
360 | * FatherToHisMen: Staunchly defends the remainder of his injured company from the Imperial forces and the raiders attacking them. He will only join the Sinon Knights if they protect all of his injured troops during his chapter, otherwise he quits being a soldier and becomes a farmer. |
361 | |
362 | * {{Kiai}}: His War Cry skill gives him an additional +3 atk and +10 hit for the next attack and it stacks, so he can deal massive damage if he keeps using the skill every turn. |

364 | * MadeOfIron: Has the Robust skill, granting him immunity from being injured or crippled. |
365 | |
366 | * MightyGlacier: He has high base defense, with the ability to further boost it through use of shields and his Axe Guard skill, which adds the attack value of the axe to his defense, but suffers from low base speed and movement. He additionally has one of the highest base strength stats in the game, having both the War Cry and Pulverize skill to further boost his damage output, with the former also increasing the accuracy of his attacks. |

383 | * ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight: During the Battle of Aryuza, he refuses an order to fall back in order to protect the townspeople from the approaching [[spoiler:Bornian forces]].

However, her low HP and defense ensures she will get killed in a few physical hits, which is a problem since most fire orbs require her to stand next to the enemy. |
416 | |

418 | |
419 | * PluckyGirl: Both Duke Roswick and Vanmillion try to keep her out of danger, but she refuses to do so if it means letting the villages in her duchy die at the hands of the invading Raze Empire. Later, she willingly enlists herself with the Sinon Knights in order to become a true knight. |
420 | |

437 | * ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight: Just like with Marcel, he and his ballistician squadmates refuse an order to immediately fall back in order to help the Sinon Knights buy time for the citizens of Kanne Village to escape from the approaching Imperial Forces. This gets him publicly lashed 300 times and left to die in the middle road by his commanding officer. Thankfully, he is saved by Reese who is thankful for his above actions, resulting in him joining the Sinon Knights. |
438 | |
439 | * LongRangeFighter: As a Ballistician, he is able to attack enemies from afar, with Ballistae actually having good damage and accuracy unlike in the ''Fire Emblem'' series, but he is defenseless if an enemy actually manages to close in on him. Acquiring the Scorpion Ballista downplays his weakness somewhat as it grants him the Overwatch skill, enabling him to instantly target a moving enemy within his range and stop them dead in their tracks. |

If the weapon he's currently equipped with breaks, he'll be rendered helpless as the enemy unit relentlessly attacks him. |

614 | |
615 | * CompositeCharacter: An interesting class based example. He combines the abilities of Pirates in typical Fire Emblem games (strong inaccurate axe units with the ability to walk on water), and the conventional skillsets of thieves, (with the ability to hide in terrain, search through houses and steal from enemy units). |
616 | |
617 | * DeathOrGloryAttack: His Pulverize skill, doubles his attack power at the cost of his defense, which means that if he misses or if an enemy who survives the attack has the Counter skill, he will take massive damage as a result. |

619 | * GlassCannon: Armed with an Axe and having the Pulverize skill lets him hit hard but he has a low defense stat and is unable to gain more due to having a 0% percent defense growth rate. Alongside his poor accuracy, he will suffer if the enemy gets the first hit on him. |
620 | |
621 | * ButForMeItWasTuesday: A surprisingly sympathetic example. [[spoiler:He notes during his ending that he doesn't remember the faces of the people he killed during his days as a ruthless pirate and worst, it horrifies him that he isn't sure if he was the one who orphaned Ciel and caused her blindness in the first place]]. |

671 | |
672 | * FearlessFool: Has a noticeable tendency to rush into the battlefield by herself regardless of the dangers that may befell her. This backfires on her during the climax of her storyline, where during the tournament at Navarron, she foolishly makes a bet to an unknown knight (who is her father Clifford in disguise) that she will give up being a knight if she loses, only to be defeated due to her recent victories making her careless and overconfident. |

705 | |
706 | * DeathOrGloryAttack: Has the Desperation skill that gives an additional 22% hitrate at the cost of reducing his defense to 0, giving the enemy unit a 100% hitrate and guarantees that the enemy will counterattack if they survive due to the fact the skill can only be used on enemies that can counterattack.

739 | |
740 | * ClimbingTheCliffsOfInsanity: While every non-armored foot unit can climb cliffs, he has the Hiker skill that lets him climb cliffs without reducing his avoid stat to 0, making it safe for him to climb in enemy-infested areas. |
741 | |
742 | * FarmBoy: He grew up on a farm and was so inspired by the songs of legendary hero Alcyone sung by his mother that by the age of 14, he ran away from home and joined the guild to become a mercenary. |

744 | * GlassCannon: Has good attack and speed stats, but suffers from having a low base defense stat of 2. |
745 | |

773 | |
774 | * FragileSpeedster: Starts off with a high base speed that allows her to evade attacks and has the Adept skill that gives her a chance to attack twice. However, her low strength stat means she needs good swords just to inflict more damage, while her low HP and defense means even a single hit is dangerous for her. |
775 | |
776 | * IaijutsuPractitioner: She has the Iaido skill which boosts her counterattack by +33 and increases her critical rate by 3% after avoiding an attack while being equipped with a sword. |
777 | |
778 | * InfinityMinusOneSword: She initially wields the Cutlass, which grants her an additional strike and had a high crit rate. It functions more as a crutch for her to gain enough experience points and weapon skill due to her low base strength. |
779 | |
780 | * InfinityPlusOneSword: [[spoiler:The Vritra sword which negates the powers of Chaos' Vajira to reduce damage to all attacks and acts as a [[LastChanceHitPoint Miracle Charm]], although it automatically breaks as a result.]] To get it though, [[spoiler:the player must complete the Minas-Theodor side quest which spans most of the game]]. |
781 | |
782 | * MagikarpPower: Starts off as a fairly weak character needing heavy investment due to her low base stats and frailty, but if her strength stat is bolstered by gaining enough lucky level ups or wearing accessories, she'll be able to destroy enemies with ease due to her high speed and sword skill allowing much greater chances of triggering Adept and the Iaido and Sunder skills boosting her critical rate. |
783 | |
784 | * ParryingBullets: Her Parry skill allows her a random chance of evading an attack at the cost to the durability of her equipped sword. |
785 | |
786 | * RevengeBeforeReason: Despite knowing Chaos is out of her league, she recklessly tries to fight him by herself, only to suffer a CurbStompBattle that would have killed her if weren't for Faramir's constant protection. |

801 | |

839 | |
840 | * KnightInSourArmor: He used to be a very famous and skilled knight that his daughter Ruby looked up to, but the death of his wife caused a serious strain in their relationship, and now he just spends most of his time as an alcoholic mess drinking away his sorrows. He still offers his services as a mercenary from time to time when he's sober, even if it's only just to pay his tabs. |

842 | * LightningBruiser: Boasts some of the highest stats in Strength, Speed and Defense in the entire game, coupled with incredibly high base weapon skill and amazing abilities in [[IShallTauntYou Provoke]] and [[LuckilyMyShieldWillProtectMe Shieldflare]], Clifford dominates the competition up until endgame with his only drawback being his high hiring costs up until his daughter Ruby's promotion. |
843 | |

860 | |
861 | * JackOfAllStats: He lacks the unique and powerful skills of the other playable chracters who can only wield their respective weapons, but makes up for it due to his high base stats, and being able to attack with both melee and ranged weapons gives him excellent versatility in any situation. |
862 | |
863 | * MadeOfIron: Cannot be injured or crippled. Unlike a few other characters this is not because of a skill. |
