3[[foldercontrol]]
4
5[[folder:Leonis Kingdom]]
6
7Between the great kingdoms of Hourne and Wezette, this small kingdom is the birthplace of princes Mont and Sterne. Possessing a ring that has been passed down for generations with the ability to call forth a powerful army of visions, even the surrounding great powers acknowledge King Oelde's strength.
8
9!!Tropes associated with them:
10* AnimalMotifs: Lions, being the sigil of the Royal family and kingdom and with Oelde and Mont referred to as the Red Lion Monarch and the New King of Lions respectively.
11* DavidVsGoliath: The David for most of the story, being a small nation nestled between larger powers. The early story involves Leonis standing alone against an alliance between Fennes and Hourne, each one already individually being larger than Leonis.
12* RedIsHeroic: Most named Leonis characters, particularly the royal family, tend to have red as their predominant color and it is also the color of their banner. However the [[RedShirt regular Leonis soldiers]] instead have Green as their primary color.
13
14!!King Oelde Leonis
15[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/oelde.png]]
16 [[caption-width-right:350:''Red Lion Monarch'']]
17-> ''"The Leonis line must live on, even should we fall afoul of gods to defend it."''
18-->-- '''Oelde's BadassCreed'''
19
20A valiant warrior and king of Leonis, who with Queen Helena has two twin sons, Mont and Sterne. His priority is the continuation of the royal bloodline, at times disregarding his affection towards his sons and making dispassionate decisions to protect at least one of them.
21->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KazuhiroYamaji (Japanese), Creator/ChrisTergliafera (English)
22----
23* AbusiveParents: [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyBraveExvius Raegen's neglect of Rain]] has nothing on this guy as the ex-Veritas at least cares deeply for his children and will go out of his way to protect them. Oelde Leonis? He's a horrible father to both Mont and Sterne, ''to say the very least''.
24* BadassCreed: Check his quote above.
25* BringIt: Oelde's answer to [[spoiler:Khury being willing to sell Leonis's heads to Muraga]]? [[spoiler:Let Mont go rescue Machérie in Leonis Castle (in one of the ''very few times'' he actually doesn't belittle Mont for his idea), knowing Khury would not take that well, and gladly challenge Wezette's soldiers when Khury tries to stop Mont's team from leaving his castle.]]
26* {{Jerkass}}: Not once is he shown to be proud of Mont or Sterne and instead shows outright disgust at Mont’s kindness. He continuously berates Mont for any action taken while providing little to no help himself. His pride also puts Mont’s group in danger [[spoiler: thanks to refusing to tend to a grievous wound, lying about it to get Mont to leave Wezette. He then does his own thing while wounded, taking the Leonis ring from Mont and giving it to the now-psychotic Sterne. Not only does this make things more difficult for Mont but pretty much shows that he WANTS his two sons to fight to the death.]]
27* MadeOfIron: [[spoiler:He gets wounded in battle against Fennes soldiers, spends a chunk of the story in very bad shape with no time to stop or heal, and still survives after the massive ordeal that is the trek to Wezette.]]
28** Deconstructed and subverted later, when Oelde [[spoiler: secretly takes a part of his army to infiltrate Leonis while wounded, needlessly endangering himself with disastrous results and causing Mont to get distracted during a crucial siege on Leonis Castle]].
29* PlayingWithFire: Fire is his element.
30* PoorCommunicationKills: He seems to have some plan in place when he leaves behind Sterne and Helena, which the latter seems to be in on (which is later confirmed by Helena herself), but he refuses to explain himself to either of his sons. [[spoiler:Even when both Mont and Sterne confront him over Helena's reported death and Sadali's insinuation that Oelde knowingly sent her to her death, he refuses to explain himself.]]
31* SkewedPriorities: We're not really sure if leaving your younger son and wife to Fennes's profit would count as "preserving the Leonis line". [[spoiler:If anything, it made Sterne all too willing to ''end it''.]]
32** Played with, however, in that [[spoiler:Helena is shown to actually be onboard with being left behind, as part of some plan they've made... but as the plan is still mostly unknown, it remains up in the air on just what their intentions are, save to ensure at least one of the sons survive, and whether their priorities are really in order.]]
33
34!!Queen Helena Leonis
35[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/helena.png]]
36 [[caption-width-right:350:''Benevolent Queen'']]
37-> ''"Perhaps it would be best to demonstrate the pride of Leonis?"''
38
39The queen of Leonis and mother of Mont and Sterne. She has full trust in King Oelde and is willing to give her own life for the sake of her country. It's not very well known that, before marrying into the royal family, she was actually a powerful black mage feared by enemy countries.
40->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/AtsukoTanaka (Japanese), Alexa Rose (English)
41----
42* ActionMom: Let us be honest, to be mother to twins and still be a badass, that's a feat. Case in point, she was a RedBaron in the battlefield before being Oelde's wife, [[spoiler:and goes back to being one once she's taken for dead]].
43* BlowYouAway: Rolls with Wind magic in battle.
44* GameplayAndStorySegregation: Despite being described as a powerful black mage in her profile her main job is actually Green Mage, and she does not even have Black Mage as one of her sub-jobs.
45* RedBaron: The Black Rose. Says it all about how feared a mage she was.
46
47!!Ildyra
48[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ildyra.png]]
49 [[caption-width-right:350:''Master of Arithmetic'']]
50-> ''"Giving up is not an option, for I am Queen Helena’s elite guard."''
51
52An Arithmetician of Leonis, she dreamed of following in her late mother's footsteps and becoming a tactician. However, Queen Helena worried for her safety and appointed her manager of Leonis's finances instead. She believes that mathematics can change the course of battle.
53->'''Voiced by:''' Yurikawa Aizawa (Japanese), Creator/SuzieYeung (English)
54----
55* MakingASplash: She handles Water-elemental magic in combat.
56* PraetorianGuard: She classifies herself as this for Queen Helena.
57
58!!Elsirelle
59[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/eisrelle.jpg]]
60 [[caption-width-right:350:]]
61
62An extreme slacker of a Leonis soldier who managed to spend entire weeks asleep while Leonis Castle was attacked.
63->'''Voiced by:''' Nanako Mori (Japanese), Creator/LizzieFreeman (English)
64----
65* TheSlacker: Can someone explain how does anyone sleep ''the entire time'' while Leonis Castle is attacked by Fennes, deserted and then occupied by the Sanctum?
66* {{Sleepyhead}}: It's ''bad''. Really. You'd think Nasha's case of NoSenseOfDirection would be bad, but Elsirelle tops her simply for her knack of ''randomly falling asleep'', [[spoiler:as Camillo can attest to]].
67
68!Caelum Division
69* TrueCompanions: Mont's party is a very tight-knit one, with most of his team handpicked by him.
70
71!!Mont Leonis
72[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mont_7.png]]
73 [[caption-width-right:350:''Destined Prince'']]
74-> ''"I'll protect you! I swear it!"''
75-->-- '''Mont's oath to Machérie'''
76
77-> ''"I don't want to slay a thousand enemies. I want to protect one person. That's why I fight."''
78-->-- '''Mont's explanation of his drive to fight'''
79
80The older twin born to King Oelde and Queen Helena of Leonis. He dislikes war and believes in coexistence rather than power and conquest. After meeting Machérie, Princess of Hourne, he realizes that he needs to become stronger in order to protect those he loves.
81->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KenshoOno (Japanese), Creator/BrycePapenbrook (English)
82----
83* BadassPacifist: Mont has no taste for fighting like his father or Sterne. This, however, doesn't mean he won't take to arms if need be, and he's shown to hold his own against far more powerful foes, [[spoiler:such as a corrupted Sterne and later ''Muraga himself'']].
84* BoringButPractical: His original MR variant. With his character shards easily purchasable with Gil along with the starter missions giving plenty of them, he is very easy to raise and unless a player purposely neglects him, will likely be one's first level 120 unit. With above average Move and Jump, high HP and defenses, he'll see pllayers through a large chunk of the story with minimal investment.
85* BigDamnHeroes: [[spoiler:Mont and Robb arrive to save Machérie on Leonis Castle just as she, Camillo and Elsirelle start faltering against the crazed Sterne.]]
86* CainAndAbel: [[spoiler: He's the Abel to Sterne's Cain]].
87* CherryTapping: Has access to the Stone Throw ability, which does minimal damage. However, it is useful for finishing off foes who are still standing with single digit HP left.
88* ChickMagnet: Has the affection of Macherie, Glaciela, and Kitone.
89* DishingOutDirt: Uses the Earth element in battle.
90* {{Expy}}: Of [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyTactics Ramza]], fitting for the ''Tactics'' inspired story. Mont is the lord of a noble house who has a strong sense of justice and goes against his house for the sake of others. He visually looks almost identical to him as well.
91* TheHero: Mont is the primary protagonist of the game and the one the story follows almost the entire time.
92* HeroicVow: He swears to Machérie that he will protect her at all costs.
93* HonorBeforeReason: Mont's FatalFlaw; he believes he can bring out the best of even the worst leaders, [[spoiler:such as King Khury of Wezette]], which often backfires on him.
94* MechanicallyUnusualFighter: He's the only MR that has a LimitBreak and voice lines during gameplay.
95* ReplacementGoldfish: Serves as one to Lilyth for the younger brother she lost to Fennes.
96* SheIsNotMyGirlfriend: Mont tends to avoid romantic advances and shipping from just about anyone, especially denying to people that he could have an item with Glaciela.
97* StoneWall: One of the best MR-rarity physical tanks, with Paladin as a sub-class to help him make it through. If properly geared and leveled, Mont can stand fierce assaults from units like Orlandeau. He is offensively strong, but his classes primarily lean him towards tanking first and foremost.
98* TheStrategist: Mont is not afraid to craft clever tactics on the fly, in the middle of a battle.
99* SummonMagic: Is in possession of Leonis's sacred relic, which lets him summon Visions. He is later given Hourne's sacred relic by Macherie.
100* TakeAThirdOption: Mont is ''constantly'' trying to do this, even in face of danger such as [[spoiler:King Khury of Wezette being willing to deliver Oelde's head to Muraga]].
101
102!!Lilyth
103[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lylith.png]]
104 [[caption-width-right:350:''Blaze of the Battlefield'']]
105-> ''"I'm not going to die just yet. I'm doing this to live."''
106
107A knight who leads Leonis's second division, Caelum, and is feared by the neighboring countries for her swordsmanship. She has a rough manner of speaking but a strong sense of justice and cannot abandon those in need. She takes good care of Mont because he resembles the brother she lost in battle.
108->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/YumiUchiyama (Japanese), Creator/AmberLeeConnors (English)
109----
110* AmazonianBeauty: Her scars all over her body do little to hide how gorgeous she is. Her Summer unit in JP shows this in even more detail.
111* CoveredInScars: This is a ShowDontTell manner of telling you [[LadyOfWar she's went her mile in battles]].
112* DishingOutDirt: Her Summer unit in JP changes her element to Earth.
113* LadyOfWar: Leonis's own, experienced one. She's also all too willing to jump into battle when the time calls for it.
114* TheLancer: Serves as this for Mont, being his second-in-command.
115* PlayingWithFire: Her main element.
116* {{Revenge}}: Her main drive for being in the Caelum division; her brother was killed by Muraga. Her first reaction upon seeing Schuzelt going for Muraga's head to avenge Naiah? ''Join him on the attempt''.
117* {{Tomboy}}: In a manner. When discussing her interest in Schuzelt, Lilyth comments to Baelo that she has no interest in living a woman's life due to her nature as a warrior, at least not until she sees Mont to his throne. After this is done, [[TomboyWithAGirlyStreak maybe she'll consider doing more girly stuff]].
118* UndyingLoyalty: She will follow Mont's every decision without a single complaint.
119
120!!Ramada
121[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ramada_0.png]]
122 [[caption-width-right:350:''Clairvoyant Lancer'']]
123-> ''"As ever the stars sparkle..."''
124
125A lancer from Leonis's second division, Caelum, and Lilyth's right hand, whom Lilyth always turns to for advice in times of trouble. She is the greatest astrologer in the land and even joined Leonis's forces according to the guidance of the stars.
126--> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/YoshinoNanjo (Japanese), Creator/FayeMata (English)
127----
128* BecauseDestinySaysSo: She joined Leonis because she believes that's what the stars have in store for her fate.
129* MakingASplash: Has Water as her element.
130* MissionControl: Acts as this for the player, providing help with the tutorial and explaining mechanics as well.
131
132!!Baelo
133[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/baelo.png]]
134 [[caption-width-right:350:''Kind Young Lion'']]
135
136A Knight from Leonis's second division, Caelum, who is normally a laid-back gourmand. However, when his companions are in danger, he transforms completely into a valiant warrior. Mont's childhood friend, Mont asked him to join during the establishment of Caelum.
137->'''Voiced by:''' Toru Nara (Japanese), Creator/BillyKametz (English)
138----
139* TheBigGuy: A literal example at that. He's one of the largest playable characters, and acts as the large heavy hitter of the group.
140* ChildhoodFriend: Mont and Baelo used to hang around a lot. This resulted in him calling the guy to join Caelum.
141* DishingOutDirt: His main element is Earth.
142* SkewedPriorities: He is more focused on food and relaxing over most other issues. Learte constantly has to chew him out for this.
143
144!!Learte
145[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/learte.png]]
146 [[caption-width-right:350:''Archer Full of Dreams'']]
147
148An archer from Leonis's second division, Caelum, who surprised those around her at a young age when she hit bull's-eyes with arrows she fired while messing around. She joined Caelum after Lilyth told her she could become a world-class archer with the experience she'd gain in the army.
149->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/YuuSerizawa (Japanese), Stephanie Komure (English)
150----
151
152* ChildhoodFriend: Like Baelo, she and Mont know each other since they were children.
153* ShockAndAwe: Her main element is Lightning.
154
155!!Kitone
156[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kitone.jpg]]
157 [[caption-width-right:350:''Night-Blooming Flower'']]
158-> ''"I'll keep supporting him from the shadows. That's enough for me."''
159
160A shinobi girl who serves Leonis. Originally from Saiga, she was trafficked at a young age but was moved by the warmth of Lilyth and the others, swearing to serve Leonis for life. She is especially thankful to Mont, for whom she is starting to develop feelings of more than just gratitude.
161->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/YuiIshikawa (Japanese), Erin Fitzpatrick (English)
162----
163* CannotSpitItOut: Due to her emotionless façade, she has serious problems admitting her feelings for Mont, something Sir Owe is well aware of.
164* CreepyMonotone: Her normal speech pattern is her doing her best to keep her emotions out of this.
165--> '''Kitone, at her first turn on a battle:''' Enemy spotted. Engaging.
166* DishingOutDirt: Earth is her main element.
167* EmotionlessGirl: Kitone tries to pass for one, often keeping a CreepyMonotone on her voice. Sir Owe knows she's keeping a façade, [[spoiler:which she drops once she sees him dying]].
168* PlayingWithFire: She becomes Fire-elemental in her Summer unit in JP.
169** Fun fact: in ''Brave Exvius'', her collab unit actually has both Fire and Earth as her elements.
170* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: [[spoiler:Once Sir Owe dies and Helena is taken for dead, she is all too willing to lash everything she has out on Dorando and Gargas.]]
171* TheStoic: She tries way too hard to not let her emotions show...
172** NotSoStoic: [[spoiler:...That is, until Sir Owe dies and she thinks Queen Helena is dead as well. Then she drops the emotionless demeanor and [[RoaringRampageOfRevenge shows plenty of disposition]] to tear Dorando and Gargas apart for it.]]
173* UndyingLoyalty: She was sold as a slave to Leonis, but Oelde and the Caelum Division sure didn't treat her as one, which caused her to swear complete loyalty to Leonis.
174
175!Fortem Division
176
177!!Sterne Leonis
178[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sterne.png]]
179 [[caption-width-right:350:''Fated Prince'']]
180[[quoteright:350:[[labelnote:Click here to check Sterne after his FaceHeelTurn]]https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ruin_sterne.jpg[[/labelnote]]]]
181 [[caption-width-right:350:''Hate-Driven Prince'']]
182-> ''"My blade serves to protect Leonis. Right, Mont?"''
183
184The younger twin born to King Oelde and Queen Helena of Leonis. He has inherited his father's skill with a sword, and there are many who hope that he succeed the throne, rather than his brother. Because he was forbidden from going to battle, a confrontation with Oelde is becoming inevitable.
185----
186[[spoiler:Sterne, clad in the golden armor bestowed by founder of the Church of the Crystal, Sadali. Containing a hidden power, this sinister armor amplifies Sterne's hatred for his father, Oelde. When enraged, it becomes almost impossible for him to distinguish friend from foe.]]
187->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/YuichiroUmehara (Japanese), Creator/ZachAguilar (English)
188----
189* BerserkButton:
190** Don't harm his mother or his master Owe. [[spoiler:Case in point, when Sir Owe actually dies and Helena is taken for dead, Sadali just ''knows'' this is bound to make Sterne [[UnstoppableRage near uncontrollable]] and ''makes use of it''.]]
191** [[spoiler:Don't get in the his way when it comes to [[TheOnlyOneAllowedToDefeatYou killing Oelde]] if you want to live.]]
192* TheBerserker: [[spoiler:Sadali gave him his golden armor for this purpose; it feeds on his anger and makes him nigh unstoppable, and unable to distinguish friend from foe.]]
193* {{BFS}}: Sterne's main flavor of weapon.
194* BrainwashedAndCrazy: [[spoiler:If Muraga's armor nearly overwhelming the King of Fennes is of any indication, this is what Sterne's golden armor, which feeds from his hatred, is trying to do to his wearer.]]
195* CainAndAbel: [[spoiler: He's the Cain to Mont's Abel]].
196* CastingAShadow: His main element is Dark.
197* CriticalHitClass: His Master Ability boosts his Critical Hit Damage and a buff from his Ninja Sub-Job boosts his critical hit rate to take advantage of it.
198* TheDragon: [[spoiler:Becomes this to Sadali, later in the story.]]
199* FaceHeelTurn: [[spoiler:Thanks to Oelde refusing to let him fight for his kingdom, and later letting him and Helena to the mercy of Fennes, Sterne gladly asked Muraga to join his efforts to destroy Leonis just so he could kill Oelde.]]
200* GlassCannon: The Soldier Class Passive, Self-Sacrifice, massively boosts his ATK stat at the cost of taking increased damage from all attack types.
201* IfYoureSoEvilEatThisKitten / JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope: [[spoiler:Muraga has Sterne do this by making him slaughter an entire village Oelde has just passed by to ensure there is no turning back for him.]]
202* LightningBruiser: Sterne has high agility and movement reach to go with his physical power.
203* TheOnlyOneAllowedToDefeatYou: [[spoiler:He will kill anyone who does any harm to Oelde. Only Sterne has any right to end his father's life.]]
204* {{Patricide}}: [[spoiler:Congratulations, Oelde, you're such a bad father that Sterne [[FaceHeelTurn became one of the villains]] solely for the chance to kill you.]]
205* ThePowerOfHate: [[spoiler:The golden armor Sadali gave him feeds on his hatred to make him more powerful. If Muraga's armor and the effects on the psyche of Fennes's king is of any indication, [[ComesGreatInsanity it also has serious mental drawbacks]].]]
206* UnderestimatingBadassery: Just because Oelde keeps him locked in Leonis Castle, doesn't mean Sterne is not able to mow down entire armies on his own. [[spoiler:Just ask Dorando and Gargas about the thrashing they took from him on their first meeting.]]
207* UnstoppableRage: [[spoiler:Mont manages to set Sterne against Muraga's own soldiers when pointing out Oelde was wounded by them. Then [[DiabolusExMachina Sadali comes with news that both his mother and Sir Owe died]]... and he goes out of control to the point that it takes Gilgamesh's BigEntrance to brake his onslaught.]]
208
209!!Sir Owe
210[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sir_owe.png]]
211 [[caption-width-right:350:''Seeker of Blade Souls'']]
212-> ''"Let's see how far we can push this aging sword, shall we?"''
213
214A swordsman invited to Leonis as a guest. Perhaps due to a sense of comfort, he joined Fortem, the corps led by Sterne. Born and raised in the east, he is known for his valor and unique style of swordsmanship. He is Sterne's sword instructor.
215->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KazuyaNakai (Japanese), (English)
216----
217* GameplayAndStorySegregation: You can still use Owe fine as a unit [[spoiler: even after his death.]]
218* KatanasAreJustBetter: As a Samurai, he tends to prefer those.
219* LastStand: [[spoiler:Puts up the mother of them all against the Fennes soldiers sent by Dorando and Gargas, defeats almost all soldiers and [[DiedStandingUp dies standing]].]]
220* OldMaster: He's Sterne's master for all effects.
221** "The Far East" reveals that he, alongside Seymore, also trained Miranda and Raviesse.
222* ShockAndAwe: Lightning is his main element.
223
224!!Sosha
225[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sosha.png]]
226 [[caption-width-right:350:''Devilish Dragoon'']]
227
228A dragoon belonging to Leonis who was originally enlisted in the army of her homeland, Rundall. The army led by Jayden was so powerful that battles got boring, and after wandering for some time, she joined Leonis. She believes that battling for one's life is more fun when on the weaker side.
229->'''Voiced by:''' Rei Shimoda (Japanese), Creator/BriannaKnickerbocker (English)
230----
231* BloodKnight: She ''loves'' a good battle and will let everyone know it.
232* BlowYouAway: Her main element is Wind.
233* VictoryIsBoring: Her reason for leaving Rundall and joining Leonis.
234
235!!Vallaide
236[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/vallaide.jpg]]
237 [[caption-width-right:350:''Starry-Eyed Mage'']]
238
239An optimistic Green Mage from Leonis's first division, Fortem, who can laugh off any kind of danger and doesn't hesitate to sacrifice himself for the sake of his allies. He has feelings for Ramada but agonizes over her enlistment in Caelum, which prevents them from having any kind of interaction.
240->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/AnriKatsu (Japanese), Creator/SeanChiplock (English)
241----
242* AnIcePerson: His element is Ice.
243* BigDamnHeroes: Just as Ramada and Lilyth are almost killed by Muraga, Vallaide runs in with the rest of Fortem.
244* EatenAlive: [[spoiler: Killed this way by the transformed Muraga]]
245* ThePollyanna: Highly optimistic even in face of dire odds, as shown in his interactions with Sosha and Little Leela.
246
247!!Little Leela
248[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/little_leela.jpg]]
249 [[caption-width-right:350:''Guileless Spellblade'']]
250
251A Spellblade who, despite having no battle experience, managed to join Leonis's first division, Fortem, after her bright and enthusiastic nature caught Sterne's eye. She is very proud of the name given to her by her mother and becomes upset when mistakenly referred to by a different name.
252->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/MarikaKouno (Japanese), Lexi Fontaine (English)
253----
254* AwesomenessByAnalysis: The main reason why Sterne recruited her is because of her detective skills. Case in point, she manages to correctly deduct that [[spoiler:Vistralle and Xiza are up to no good when her team spots them accompanying a carriage to Leonis Castle]].
255* BerserkButton: She has a problem with people calling her by the wrong name and keeps count on how many times this has happened. Do this enough and she'll be ''out for blood''.
256* ButtMonkey: Seems to be at the receiving end of mockery among Fortem.
257* CastingAShadow: Has Dark as her element.
258* PinkMeansFeminine: One of the few female characters in this game to invest in pink for her color scheme.
259* SayingTooMuch: Leela spouts about Hourne being technically allies of Fennes (and thus enemies of Leonis) to Deah, which causes her to attack Leela's team... [[CurbStompBattle And lose]]. Only then Vallaide and the others get to explain their situation to Deah.
260* SpellBlade: Her main class, notable for being a [[CastingAShadow Dark-element]] user of such.
261
262!!Yerma
263[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/yerma.png]]
264 [[caption-width-right:350:''Scarlet Tornado'']]
265-> ''"I'll make quick work of any enemy."''
266
267A red-headed warrior who continues to search for a man stronger than her. Many men have fallen for her beautiful looks, but she has yet to meet someone who can defeat her in battle. On her journey, she happened to become acquainted with Etre.
268----
269* BloodKnight: She looks for a man capable of beating her in battle. Should she find such a man? ''She'll marry him''. This is what makes her interested in Sterne for starters.
270* BlowYouAway: Wind is her element.
271
272!!Etre
273[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/etre.png]]
274 [[caption-width-right:350:''Sunshine Monk'']]
275
276She left her home in hopes of joining Fortem after falling in love at first sight with Prince Sterne of Leonis. Originally from a poor village with an insufficient supply of weaponry, she chose to become a Monk and fight with her own body, awakening her full potential through her own method of training.
277->'''Voiced by:''' Eri Inagawa (Japanese), Amanda Julina Gonzalez (English)

284 [[caption-width-right:350:''Lost Holy Knight'']]
285----
286Out of her love for Prince Sterne of Leonis, Nasha rejected the marriage arranged by her parents and left her village home behind. During the enlistment test for Fortem, the division led by Sterne, she headed towards a skeletons' den; but, having no sense of direction, she got hopelessly lost in the caverns.
287
288* AnIcePerson: Has Ice as her element.
289* LuckilyMyShieldWillProtectMe: As a Paladin, she's highly reliant on her shield.
290* NoSenseOfDirection: Nasha's sense of direction is ''horrible''. She got lost on a cavern she was sent to for a Fortem recruitment exam, making Lylith assume she was dead, and causing Yerma and Etre to have to bail her out.
291* StoneWall: The second MR unit of this category, after Mont. That said, while she can pull her own weight, people will still prefer Mont due to his ease of access compared to her.

295[[folder:Hourne Kingdom]]
296
297A grand kingdom ruled by King Robb spreading out to the west of Leonis. Hourne's first division Solidus is a threat to neighboring countries. The king is father to Prince Dario and Princess Machérie. While there are hostilities with Wezette, Hourne shares an amicable relationship with Leonis.

301!!King Robb Hourne
302[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/robb.png]]
303 [[caption-width-right:350:''Brave and Wise King'']]
304-> ''"The favor bestowed upon Hourne..."''
305
306The king of Hourne, known for his patient, benevolent nature. Although he dislikes conflict, he decides to give his daughter Machérie away in an alliance with Fennes after Sadali, head of the church, warns him of the incoming invasion by the powerful country to the west, Rundall.
307->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/MasashiEbara (Japanese), Ted Limpert (English)
308----
309* BadassPacifist: Robb has serious distaste for conflict, but when push comes to shove, he's actually a serious match for the likes of Muraga.
310* BigDamnHeroes: He's a goddamn ''specialist'' at this.
311** Kitone, Lynx, Adelard and Salire were having serious problems with Dorando and Gargas, again playing FlunkyBoss with the help of Rairyuu and Zazan. Suddenly Robb turns up in the scene with Solidus and the fight ''turns a total 180°''.
312** [[spoiler:Xiza is all but dead after Sterne plowed through her, and Machérie, Camillo and Elsirelle were just about to suffer the same fate when Robb and Mont finally arrive on the scene.]]
313* TheGoodKing: Robb's rule on Hourne is incredibly well-regarded in all of Ardra as a generous king. In fact, the only reason Hourne is at odds with Leonis is because they're allied to Wezette. Else? Robb sees no problem with helping Leonis against Fennes and the Sanctum.
314* KatanasAreJustBetter: In line with his Samurai main job.
315* LightEmUp: Has Light as his element.
316* MercyKill: [[spoiler:Is given one by Mont after being bitten and cursed by one of Muraga's snakes.]]

322-> ''"Show me strength that can move even the hardest of hearts."''
323-->-- '''Machérie's [[DareToBeBadass challenge]] to Mont
324
325The fortuitous daughter of Robb, King of Hourne, who always follows things through to the end. She has confidence in her ability to read people. On the way to meet her in-laws-to-be, her carriage is attacked by an unidentified group of bandits, but this leads to her fateful encounter with Mont.
326->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/{{Lynn}} (Japanese), Creator/SkylerDavenport (English)
327----
328* ArrangedMarriage: To seal the EnemyMine treaty with Fennes, her father allowed Muraga to wed her. Machérie quickly realizes this is a front on Muraga's part once her carriage is attacked en route to Fennes.
329** Flavor text on Machérie's Vision Card reveals that Robb was actually ''opposed'' to the wedding; it was Machérie who convinced her father to let her do it as the alliance would provide a defensive chance against Rundall. Not that she was really okay with it, though: Dario notes to Vinera that she cried for a whole day after agreeing to that.
330* DamselInDistress: She spends a nice chunk of time [[spoiler:as either Fennes or the Sanctum's hostage]], or getting beaten around by villains when trying to fight them.
331* DareToBeBadass: Constantly challenges Mont to awe her in battle.
332* LightEmUp: Runs in the family that she's Light-elemental like her father.
333* MamaBear: The aunt variety. She may not be able to enter combat in Part 3 [[spoiler: due to being pregnant with her and Mont's child]] but [[spoiler: she still dispatches the Nitor Division to locate and protect Vinera and Daria upon finding out from Eldric that Garvall is not only planning her assassination but is also after her infant niece]].
334* PlayingWithFire: Her Christmas unit in JP changes her to Fire-elemental.
335* SummonMagic: Has Hourne's sacred relic in her possession, which allows her to summon Espers. She later gives it to Mont.
336* UnstoppableRage: [[spoiler:She arrives to her dead brother just minutes after Vinera leaves, and with Camillo and Deah already on the scene. She wrongly deduces Camillo was the killer and goes all out on him without thinking even the first time.]]
337
338!!Prince Dario Hourne
339[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/dario_9.png]]
340 [[caption-width-right:350:''Disquieted Scholar'']]
341-> ''"This isn't your fault. I was just born into the wrong place, into the wrong life."''
342-->-- '''Assuring Vinera she's not to blame for his situation'''
343
344The prince of Hourne and Macherie's older brother. Although blessed as a natural spellblade, he hates fighting even more than his father does and has no desire to succeed the throne. Before Macherie is sent off the be wed, Dario accepts the king of Fennes's daughter, Vinera, as his princess.
345----
346* BadassPacifist: Admits to detesting fighting, and has stayed within the walls of Hourne castle for most of his life because of it. But when push comes to shove he shows himself more than capable of throwing down, eliciting awe from his assassins even as he's dying from illness while fighting them off. [[spoiler:Case in point, he takes Doluza down in his last minutes ''without even being touched by this guy''.]]
347* BlowYouAway: His element is Wind.
348* DefiantToTheEnd: Once Vinera [[DefectingForLove shows the resolution to stay and fight for him]], Dario himself shows his true spine and gives Doluza ''far more'' than what he bargained for. [[spoiler:He still dies, but from his illness rather than any battle injuries... of which he had none.]]
349* DoNotGoGentle: Played with. When Doluza's assassins come for him he is initially resigned and willing to let them take his life without struggle as [[DeadManWalking he is already dying]]. It's when Vinera throws herself between him and the assassins that he starts to fight for her sake, all the while pleading for Vinera to just let him die and keep herself alive.
350* {{Foil}}: To Sterne. Both are son of a king and are kept behind the walls of a castle for most of their lives. While Sterne is resentful of this and wants nothing more than the chance to go out and fight for his kingdom, Dario has an aversion to fighting and is content with spending his time in the castle. When Fennes is poised to take Leonis castle, Oelde takes Mont and leaves behind Sterne, and when Hourne goes to war with Fennes one of Robb's first acts is to send Machérie to protect Dario. While Sterne is reputed as the stronger prince, he is ultimately defeated by Mont in single combat but is left alive, whereas Dario was widely believed to be weak and cowardly only for him to wipe the floor with the army of assassins sent after him without receiving a single wound[[spoiler: only to perish from his illness shortly after.]]
351* IncurableCoughOfDeath: Admits that his cough is due to much more than a simple cold. [[spoiler:He eventually dies from this. When Camillo inspects his corpse, he finds that there aren't any wounds visible.]]
352* MagicKnight: His main job is Spellblade and his profile notes that he's a natural at it.
353* MythologyGag: His quote above reads almost like an inversion of Delita's famous "'Tis your birth and faith that wrong you, not I".
354* OneManArmy: Tyrell notes in surprise that Dario appears strong enough to fight off an entire platoon by himself. Said strength is shown when Dario wipes out a room full of assassins in a single attack.
355* PowerIncontinence: Is said to have little to no control of his magic, which is part of the reason he secludes himself.
356* SuperReflexes: His assassins note while fighting him that it's almost as if he's predicting their moves. It's to the point that [[spoiler:ultimately he dies not from battle wounds, of which there are none on his corpse, but from his illness]].
357** Revealed to be outright CombatClairvoyance by Adelard.
358* UnderestimatingBadassery: Is subject to this due to his reputation for hiding behind walls.
359
360!Solidus Division
361
362!!Schuzelt
363[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/schuzelt.png]]
364 [[caption-width-right:350:''Reckless First Sword'']]
365-> ''"Witness the might of the First Sword of Hourne."''
366
367A knight from Hourne's first division, Solidus, who possesses the name "First Sword" from his knack for rushing into the harshest of battles unafraid. Three days before the wedding ceremony with his beloved Naiah, he is ordered to escort Machérie to Fennes to be wed.
368->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/YukiOno (Japanese), Joe Gonzalez (English)
369----
370* {{BFS}}: As is standard for the Soldier Class.
371* BloodKnight: [[spoiler:While his plan was originally to surrender once Mont was far enough from Wezette Castle, Schuzelt decided to fight a little longer on the mere prospect of being able to see Serjes' strength for himself.]]
372* CriticalHitClass: His Master Ability gives him a large boost to his Critical Hit Rate.
373* FireForgedFriends: Schuzelt initially didn't think much of Mont and Leonis, but their ordeal together turned him into a [[TrueCompanions trusted ally]], to the point [[spoiler:he's willing to risk his life to ensure Mont escapes King Khury and goes to rescue Machérie]].
374* GlassCannon: The Soldier Class Passive, Self-Sacrifice, massively boosts his ATK stat at the cost of taking increased damage from all attack types.
375* HeterosexualLifePartners:
376** He's this with Engelbert, his BestFriend. Engel is willing to go ''any mile'' for Schuzelt, even giving a threatening message to Oelde for his wellbeing.
377** Schuzelt develops this with Mont as the story progresses, seeing his mettle in battle and how he cares for his TrueCompanions.
378* HoldTheLine: [[spoiler:Schuzelt stays behind to fend Wezette's forces while Mont escapes to rescue Machérie.]]
379* LeeroyJenkins: The reason for his epithet. Happens in the story after learning of Naiah's death, rushing straight for Muraga without a second though. Even with Lilyth joining him out of her own desire for vengeance, [[CurbStompBattle this ends poorly]].
380* TheLostLenore: Naiah, assassinated parallel to the start of the story, was Schuzelt's betrothed, and her death is the main drive for his RoaringRampageOfRevenge against Muraga.
381* RedBaron: "The First Sword of Solidus".
382* RevengeBeforeReason: Once he learns his betrothed got assassinated by Muraga's henchmen, he renounces even his status as a knight of Solidus so he can get a shot at Muraga's head.
383* ShockAndAwe: Has Lightning element for his repertoire.
384* UnstoppableRage: Put him in front of Muraga and watch him [[RevengeBeforeReason throw all common sense out the window]].
385
386!!Shadowlynx
387[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/shadowlynx.png]]
388 [[caption-width-right:350:''Lone Shadow'']]
389-> ''"Do you think anyone would shed a tear for me?"''
390-->-- '''Questioning Mont when he asks her to be careful'''
391
392A shinobi from Saiga who was trafficked and sent to Hourne. She boasts undying loyalty to Robb and Machérie, who treat her like family. In particular, she and Machérie have been together since they were young, and she has always protected the princess like a bodyguard.
393->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/YokoHikasa (Japanese), Francesca Manzi (English)
394----
395* CastingAShadow: Her main element is Dark.
396* KilledOffForReal: Slain by Dorando, Gargas and Zazan.
397* LightningBruiser: Lynx is extremely agile and has the strength to support it, with only Kitone being superior to her in her class.
398* NoTrueScotsman: She thinks very lowly from the ninjas trained by Fennes, considering them "fake shinobi", and gets her point across as, even wounded from her battle against Rairyuu, she still mops the floor with ''a full detachment'' of these guys.
399
400!!Engelbert
401[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/engelbert.png]]

403-> ''"Hmph. Don't think that you can surpass me."''
404
405Commander of Hourne's first division, Solidus. From a family of knights that has served Hourne for generations, he has become known as the strongest shield in Hourne as a result of enduring his father's strict training. He awaits the day he can fight against the country of Rundall and avenge his father's death.
406->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KatsuyukiKonishi (Japanese), Brady Hales (English)
407----
408* BestFriend: He's Schuzelt's ChildhoodFriend, and he'll go to the lengths of ''threatening Oelde'' over the First Blade's safety.
409* {{Jerkass}}: If he happens to not like someone, he'll give the rudest treatment he'll be allowed to. Ask Vallaide and Leela on this. Or any Leonis participant in the war for that matter.
410* LightEmUp: Has Light as his element.
411* MightyGlacier: Once Engelbert has set his buffs in place, you'll find out that it's quite hard to take him down.
412* StoneWall: ''The'' fiercest tank on the game's launch, and for a long time after, and for good reasons. Taking a well-geared Lv.99 Engel down takes far more physical and magic strength than it looks like.
413
414!!Frederika
415[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/frederika.jpg]]

426-> ''"I shall show you... the strength of a true Dragoon."''
427
428A Dragoon from Hourne's first division, Solidus, who idolizes Engelbert's willingness to protect his allies. A rather hot-blooded man, his ancestor was one of the few to be recognized by The Dragon, but he makes sure not to let it go to his head.
429----
430* DishingOutDirt: Has Earth as his main element.
431
432!!Naiah

434 [[caption-width-right:350:''Transient White Mage'']]
435
436A White Mage belonging to Hourne. She is in love with Schuzelt, whom she met by chance twelve years ago. She originally preferred to stay indoors and read but resolved herself to White Magic in order to be of use to Schuzelt, to whom she is currently engaged.
437->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/MichelleMarie (English)
438----
439* PlayingWithFire: Fire is her element.
440* PosthumousCharacter: She doesn't even get to appear on screen; all you get to know is that she died to Muraga's men while Schuzelt went to escort Machérie.
441* WhiteMage: One of the most basic White Mages, and a good option if the player has no access to Ayaka.
442
443!Nitor Division

448-> ''"I'll show you why they call me the [[RedBaron Vermillion Devil]]."''
449
450A young Red Mage who leads Hourne's second division, Nitor. While nothing usually fazes the calm-headed Adelard, his one weakness is his younger sister Salire, whom he values more than anything. Recently, he regrets perhaps having spoiled her, but it's too late at this point.
451->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/TakuyaSato (Japanese), Creator/LucienDodge (English)
452----
453* BrotherSisterTeam: He and Salire are almost never seen apart in battle, which contributes to both mages' reputations.
454* ChickMagnet: He's stated to be attractive enough to get attention from the girls. Problem is, these girls have to go through [[{{Yandere}} Salire]] first.
455* NervesOfSteel: Adelard rarely, if ever, loses composure in critical situations.
456* PlayingWithFire: Has Fire magic in his repertoire.
457* RedBaron: So fitting for a Red Mage that he's called the Vermillion Devil.
458* RedMage: His main class.
459* SuperReflexes: This is the only explanation you could get for this guy ''parrying Lu'Cia's bullets with his sword''.

464-> ''"If only I could magic away everyone in the world... Except for Brother, of course."''
465
466A Black Mage from Hourne's second division, Nitor, and Adelard's younger sister, who speaks to even King Robb in an overly vulgar manner. She loves her brother dearly and thinks of anyone who tries to get close to him as an enemy, even becoming a Black Mage so as to protect him.
467->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/RieTakahashi (Japanese), Elise Napier (English)
468----
469* BigBrotherWorship: Salire has extreme admiration for Adelard, to the point that she'll attack anyone who poses a threat to him... Or even ''gets close enough'' to him.
470* BlackMage: An extremely volatile one at that.
471* BloodKnight: To the point one could say she's outright ''psychotic''. It's not rare to see Salire itching to get someone's head as a trophy.
472* BrotherSisterTeam: One Salire constantly forces herself into with Adelard.
473* MotorMouth: The girl is clearly hyperactive, and the speed at which she speaks shows.
474* MurderIsTheBestSolution: Leans disturbingly close to this mindset.
475* ShockAndAwe: Lightning magic is her forte, and she pretty much is an expert at it.
476* {{Stripperiffic}}: Shows a lot of skin for a teenager, something Adelard calls her out on.
477

479
480[[folder:Fennes Kingdom]]
481
482A territory ruled by the King of the Barbarians, Muraga. It views the allied kingdoms of Wezette and Leonis as enemies and has a deep-seated desire to destroy them. As a means to reach this goal, an alliance was formed with Hourne using Sadali as an intermediary.
483
484!!Tropes associated with them:
485* GoldColoredSuperiority: Fennes's army is taken into wearing gold-colored gear, with tones of PurpleIsPowerful to accompany it.
486* MadeASlave: A good chunk of Muraga's forces are actually drafted by force, with leverage to force them into cooperating. Just ask Vinera or Kilphe.
487* TheSpartanWay: Fennes's usual method of making soldiers doesn't create weaklings, they mostly [[RecruitedFromTheGutter scoop these people from the slums]] and turn them into {{Tyke Bomb}}s.
488
489!!King Muraga Fennes
490[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/muraga.png]]
491 [[caption-width-right:350:''King of the Savages'']]
492-> ''"The true pleasure of battle lies in death throes and bloodbaths."''
493
494The king of Fennes, the country of savages that controls the frontier lands. He believes Leonis's ancient relic is the reason that Fennes can't defeat Leonis despite its overwhelming military strength. He follows Sadali, head of the church, with plans to steal the artifact and use it to destroy Hourne.
495->'''Voiced by:''' Masafumi Kimura (Japanese), Jarred Kjack (English)
496----
497* ArchEnemy: Considers himself one to the Leonis Kingdom and will stop at nothing to destroy its lineage.
498* BerserkButton: Muraga does not take well to defeat, or more precisely, to being belittled. [[spoiler:It's amplified by the Golden Armor he wears.]]
499* BrainwashedAndCrazy: [[spoiler:Like Sterne, Sadali gave Muraga an armor that feeds on his negative emotions to grant him power. With Muraga, it's humiliation, and the armor eventually overwhelms him a while after Gilgamesh stops the open conflict between Fennes and Leonis, turning him into a serpentine monster.]]
500* TheDragon: He's effectively this to Sadali. [[spoiler:At least until his armor turns him into a monster and he's killed by Mont and the others.]]
501* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Muraga gets a CG scene for himself when he starts taking a detachment of Leonis soldiers down by himself with mere swings of his axe to demonstrate his brutality.
502* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Loves his wife dearly, even if she doesn't love him back.
503* IControlMyMinionsThrough: Fear and Power, definitely.

508-> ''"No matter what happens... I have no regrets!"''
509
510An assassin from Fennes who was kidnapped from her village by Muraga to be trained in the art of assassination from a young age. Sadali schemed to send her to Hourne under the guise of Muraga's daughter with the goal of assassinating the prince of Hourne, Dario.
511----
512* BecomingTheMask: She was sent by Muraga to enthrall and then assassinate Dario. What Muraga [[DidntSeeThatComing didn't expect]] is that she would actually fall InLoveWithTheMark [[BecauseYouWereNiceToMe due to his kind heart]].
513* CastingAShadow: She is a Dark-elemental unit.
514* DeadGuyJunior: Part 2 reveals that [[spoiler: she named her daughter Daria in Dario's honor]].
515* DefectingForLove: Dario [[BecauseYouWereNiceToMe was such a good person]] that Vinera actually fell in love with the guy and proceeded to turn against Fennes for him.
516* RecruitedFromTheGutter: Her life was ''miserable'' before she was taken into Muraga's wing. Doluza pulls no punches on cruelly reminding her of this.
517* SomeoneToRememberHimBy: [[spoiler:She is pregnant with Dario's child.]]

527 [[caption-width-right:350:''Loving Little Shield'']]
528
529A knight trained at the Serpent's Den, a shinobi training facility of Fennes. He was sent to Hourne as an escort to Vinera, who was wed to Prince Dario in order to assassinate him. At first, he hated Dario because of his feelings for Vinera, but...
530----
531* ChildSoldier: Let us be honest, he's a kid trained to be a TykeBomb in Muraga's ranks.
532* MakingASplash: His element is Water.
533* TokenGoodTeammate: It says a lot when the kid would rather make friends with his enemies where other from Fennes take pride on wanton killing. [[spoiler:No wonder he turned so easily against Muraga when he realized Vinera was willing to give her life for Dario.]]
534
535!!Oldoa

539-->-- '''Oldoa's introduction to Mont'''
540
541A swordswoman that is distantly related to King Muraga of Fennes and the sole strategist of the Fennes army. Due to her deep adoration of Muraga, she naturally has negative feelings for Sadali as he treats Muraga like a subordinate.
542->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/YuuKobayashi (Japanese), Creator/MorganBerry (English)

544* ArrogantKungFuGirl: She prides herself a lot in her strength.
545* TheBerserker: Usually rushes into battle without thinking.
546* BoisterousBruiser: Oh man does she have an ego. That said, she puts it to good use to take her opponents by surprise, as Mont can attest to.
547* BlowYouAway: Her element is Wind.
548* CooperationGambit: She lets Mont enter the fortress and take her hostage with barely putting up a fight, expecting him to plan to lure Muraga in for a counter strike, and then has Kilphe attack his troops from behind while they prepared for Muraga's arrival and getting them worn enough for Muraga to finish the job. Unfortunately for her, [[HoistByHisOwnPetard Mont also knows how to play this game]].
549* DumbMuscle: Oldoa looks the part, but makes this a SubvertedTrope as she's actually smarter, quickly leading Mont's team into a trap deep into the fortress she's watching over.
550* GeniusBruiser: Don't let her muscles and dumb look fool you; ''she's a player'', and she'll make sure to demonstrate that to whoever is her enemy.
551* LetThemDieHappy: Does this for [[spoiler:a dying, blinded Muraga, lying to him about being his wife and telling him she loved him, letting him believe she finally opened her heart to him.]]
552* TheStrategist: Muraga put her as Fennes's main strategist for a reason: Oldoa is ''really'' smarter than she looks. [[CooperationGambit She played nice with Mont]] so he would wait for an ambush from Muraga, while Kilphe's troops came from behind to attack Caelum in the fortress. This also ends up distracting Caelum [[CombinationAttack as Muraga's own troops close in from the other side]].
553* UndyingLoyalty: To Muraga, to the point she ''hates'' the fact that Sadali is playing him. [[spoiler:One of the reason she sides against his wife is her refusal to comfort Muraga in his final moments.]]

563* CreepyMonotone: Fennes's own flavor of this. Not even once does she raise her voice.
564* DishingOutDirt: One of the first playable mages to use Earth as an element.
565* EvenMooksHaveLovedOnes: The only reason Kilphe is even rolling with Muraga is her desire to see her brother again. [[spoiler:He acutally died a while ago and she knows it, only staying with Oldoa after Muraga is killed [[DueToTheDead due to her tending to his grave.]]]]
566* MadeASlave: She's one of the people forcibly drafted into Muraga's army, with her brother taken hostage as to force her to cooperate. [[spoiler:With Muraga gone and her brother dead, this is no longer the case and she fights alongside Oldoa by choice.]]

574
575A great kingdom located at the eastern edge of Ardra. Ruled by King Khury, Wezette is blanketed in snow all year round. The sole successor is Khury's illegitimate daughter, Glaciela. Due to Glaciela's rebellion against Khury, the kingdom is currently in a state of civil war.
576
577!!Tropes associated with them:
578----
579* DecadentCourt: Wezette's royal line has a problem with people dueling for the top position. Khury lost his successor that way, and attempts were made on Glaciela.

594* IControlMyMinionsThrough: Fear, Power and Material Benefits are the most prominent methods for him.
595* MakingASplash: His in-game element is Water.
596* ProperlyParanoid: There is a reason Khury makes clear that no one is to mock him: Wezette is known to have a fierce dispute for the throne where no one is to be trusted. Which gets worse once ''his own daughter'' enters the competition.
597* ShootTheMessenger: A messenger from Sadali thought he could get away with [[BerserkButton making fun of Khury's position in his deal with the Sanctum]]. Khury then drew his bow and shot him InTheBack for it.
598--> '''Khury:''' Heh heh heh. It's not unusual for emissaries to fail to return. [[MakeItLookLikeAnAccident Starving wolves roam these lands from dawn to dusk, after all]].
599* ZeroPercentApprovalRating: Comes with being a despot. Many tried to take him down and failed, his main division Equito's leader has no love for the guy, and his own daughter refitted her division into a rebellion movement to take him down.

641* AFatherToHisMen: It's the only reason this guy is still leading his men in Equito: He can't bear to leave them to whoever else Khury would put in charge of his team, much less get Severo and/or Yuni in trouble for his acts.
642* HonestAdvisor: Even though Mont is technically his enemy, Serjes doesn't hesitate to help him and/or give him advice about Khury's behavior. He's also the one who suggests Mont to seek Rubeus' help in order to deal with the fortress on the outskirts of Wezette.
643* AnIcePerson: Has Ice as his element.
644* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: He may be just following orders from Khury, but he's fully aware (and not liking a single bit of it) of what is happening in Wezette, warning Mont that even if he manages to calm Khury down in his plan to [[spoiler:sell Leonis's heads to Muraga for the safety of his kingdom]], the king won't take that quietly.

She responds by attempting to MurderTheHypotenouse, believing that she can get Mont back if Macherie was dead.

686* ViolenceIsTheOnlyOption: She knew that if she wouldn't kill her own family and take the throne, her own father would set her for the kill (and that was after she herself staved off an assassination attempt).

888Dorando's younger brother, a fiendish mercenary who travels the land doing anything for status and fortune. He believes that foul play is an act of honor, but surprisingly, he pays proper respect to the truly courageous, whether they be friend or foe.
889----
890* BlowYouAway: Has Wind as his element, contrasting his brother.
891* DirtyCoward: Maybe even more than Dorando, as he thinks his moves are honorable.
892* FriendToAllChildren: He and Dorando raise a kid who lives with the Sanctum.
893* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: The same guy known for extremely cowardly tactics and bloodlust will also turn into a rather gentle person in front of his adopted child. This is not lost on Rairyuu.
894* VerbalTic: Finishes most of his phrases with an "eh?".

901

903->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/RyokaYuzuki (Japanese), Amber May (English)
904----
905* ArchEnemy: Considers herself one to Machérie, noting to Vistralle that she was humiliated by the princess in the past.
906* AxCrazy: If her attitude towards Machérie doesn't hint you, her Limit Burst will.
907* CastingAShadow: Her element is Dark.
908* EnemyMine: [[spoiler:Xiza is faced with Sterne, ''who was supposed to be her ally'' and is targeting Machérie to get at Mont. When she realizes how dangerous Sterne is, she sees no choice but to aid Camillo and Elsirelle on the skirmish, and this costs her her life.]]
909* GoodOldFisticuffs: Fights with her fists as a Monk.
910* FaceHeelTurn: Is first introduced as a spy in Solidus. [[spoiler:Later revealed to be a FakeDefector.]]
911* IHaveYourWife: [[spoiler:She pulls this by holding Machérie at Leonis Castle as a bargain chip for King Robb.]]
912* ItsPersonal: The main reason why she joined Sadali's ranks is her own feud with Machérie.
913* TheMole: [[spoiler:She turns out to be working for King Robb, who secured her loyalty by promising that Xiza's mother would be supported and cared for. When Macherie agrees to uphold her father's promise, Xiza lays down her own life in Macherie's defense.]]

929!Shinobi Village of Saiga
930
931A shinobi village rivaling Gouga. However, the way of life in Saiga is completely different; the people have a deep sense of morality and desire to help those in trouble, even if it means sacrificing themselves. Shinobi such as Kitone of Leonis and Shadowlynx of Hourne hail from Saiga.
932
933!!Skahal
934[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/scar_8.jpg]]

937The Chief of Saiga.
938->'''Voiced by:''' Kengo Takahashi (Japanese), Elliot Schiff (English)
939----
940* AsskickingLeadsToLeadership: This guy has all the skills he needs to back his position as the chief of Saiga.
941* ItsPersonal: With Mariale and Zazan for [[spoiler:Loreila's death]].
942* LetsGetDangerous: [[spoiler:Once Zazan manages to kill Loreila, all bets are off and Skahal starts to show what he's made of.]]
943* ShockAndAwe: Salire has ''nothing'' on him. This Black Mage can wipe entire fields of Gouga Ninjas with a mere FlashStep if he's feeling like it.
944
945!!Mia
946[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mia_1.png]]
947 [[caption-width-right:350:''Unsullied Blade'']]
948
949A Thief of Saiga. Originally from a town destroyed by monsters, she is thankful to the chief of Saiga for taking her and her mother in when they had nowhere to go. However, being unaccostumed to simple village life, she dreams of being appointed to a rich noble.
950----
951* BlowYouAway: Her element is Wind.
952* FaceHeelTurn: Mia backstabbed Saiga in favor of Gouga.
953* FashionableAsymmetry: Wears one stocking on one leg with the other going stockingless.
954* {{Foil}}: Becomes one for Ahlim, they are both young shinobi but while Ahlim continues to remain loyal to her clan and friends, Mia ditched everyone and went to Gouga without a second thought. Ahlim also puts the best interests of Saiga above her own wants as chief after Skahal is killed while Mia [[spoiler: murders Mariale in order to usurp the position of Gouga's chief]] just so she can gain power and status for herself while planning to eventually stamp out the Great Houses of Ardra. Livialle rightfully points out these differences when giving Mia a very well deserved TheReasonYouSuckSpeech.
955* ItsAllAboutMe: Everything she's done was because she desires power and status, even betraying her friends and [[spoiler: killing her own mother and later Mariale]] in order to do so.
956* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler: Finally dies in Part 3, Chapter 4, Scene 2 in a last duel with Ahlim]].
957* KlingonPromotion: [[spoiler: Puts an already dying Mariale out of her misery just so she could gain Gouga's chieftainship]].
958* LackOfEmpathy: She really doesn't care about the consequences of her actions and how it affects others and is completely remorseless in regards to the pain she causes others. As a unit, she even starts her first turn with "I'm going to make you cry!"
959* PerpetualSmiler: Mia is always smiling, even when during cutscenes her character portrait showcases other expressions based on her dialogue, her CG rendering always keeps a permanently plastered on smile on her face.
960* PsychoticSmirk: Every rotten and sociopathic act Mia commits is always with a smile on her face.
961* {{Sadist}}: Just in case her first turn one liner as a unit isn't enough of a clue, Mia really enjoys tormenting her enemies.
962* SelfMadeOrphan: [[spoiler: Part 3 reveals she killed her own mother]] and her father is never mentioned so we can assume he's dead too.
963* [[UngratefulBastard Ungrateful Bitch]]: Skahal and his people selflessly accepted Mia and her mother as one of them after monsters destroyed their previous town and rendered them homeless. What does Mia do when war breaks out between Saiga and Gouga? She literally stabs Skahal in the back and flocks to Gouga after everything he and his village did for her and betrays her friends like they meant nothing and after everything they've been through!
964* WeUsedToBeFriends: Mia was once friends and as Ahlim put it "almost as close as sisters" with the other shinobi girls in Saiga but became a completely different person because of the war with Gouga. This is discussed and lampshaded when Neia asks Ahlim, Kitone and Livialle [[spoiler: why they are praying for Mia after she dies]].
965
966!Shinobi Village of Gouga
967
968A shinobi village rivaling Saiga. In Gouga, war is regarded as essential to survival, and the only way to get ahead is to eliminate those who would stand in one's way. Ruled by Mariale, shinobi such as Rairyuu and Zazan hail from Gouga.

986
987A ruthless shinobi from Gouga working for Muraga who would kill his own family in a heartbeat for the right price. He sees the equally powerful shinobi village of Saiga as Gouga's enemy and lives for the purpose of exterminating the village in its entirety.

992* EnemyMine: He's willing to pull this if someone pays him to.
993* TheGunslinger: Rairyuu takes pride in his Gunner skills.
994* OnlyInItForTheMoney: The only reason he's working for Muraga is because he's being paid for it. Not that it matters though; due to some Saiga Ninjas being in the mix, Rairyuu is more than happy to take part in this.
995
996!!Zazan
997[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/zazan.png]]
998 [[caption-width-right:350:''Immortal Cutthroat'']]
999
1000A warrior affiliated with Gouga. He loves nothing more than slaughter and has found a kindred spirit in Rairyuu, who introduced him to the shinobi village. He is said to be immortal as he is not killed as easily as most men.
1001->'''Voiced by:''' Kousuke Goto (Japanese), Creator/PatrickSeitz (English)
1002----
1003* BloodKnight: Known for his bloodlust. It's bad enough to the point where he wants to burn villages ''just because he's bored''.
1004* DirtyCoward: His EstablishingCharacterMoment finally happens when he's PlayingPossum in order to [[spoiler:land his kill on Skahal, with Loreila [[TakingTheBullet jumping in front of his attack]] to prevent it]].
1005* DumbMuscle: Zazan is content with just getting people dead with his sword.
1006* EnemyMine: If Rairyuu is paid to do some murdering, Zazan will do the same. This also includes being paid to turn against his original contractors.
1007* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler: After two and a half parts, he is finally killed by Lucielle as of Part 3, Chapter 8, Scene 2]].
1008* MakingASplash: Water is his element.
1009* PlayingPossum: His specialty, and one of the reasons he's nicknamed "the Unkillable". [[spoiler:He plays dead after Loreila defeats him, rising back up on Mariale's signal; had Loreila not [[TakingTheBullet taken the killing blow for Skahal]], he wouldn't have survived]]. Eventually though, [[spoiler: this tactic finally fails on him big time when he attempts to murder Lucielle, having underestimated how powerful she really is, and he and Dorando and Gargas were not expecting her to be AxCrazy either]].

1014
1015The new chieftainess of Gouga. She was appointed by the previous chieftain out of concern for the future of the village following its descent into a self-serving band of murderers. In a twist of fate, she fell in love with the new leader of Saiga and has come to believe that the two villages should unite.
1016----
1017
1018* BlowYouAway: Has Wind as her element.
1019* CListFodder: [[spoiler:Her existence consists of basically being killed to fully spark the conflict between Saiga and Gouga]].

1021
1022!Ovis Kingdom
1023
1024A kingdom located to the north of Leonis and ruled by Queen Lucielle. Although there were plans to unite Ovis and the neighboring kingdom of Heindler under King Oberon, it has become an obstacle for King Jayden of Rundall's "Ardra Unification", and the castle is on the verge of surrender.

1064* TragicKeepsake: Her sword, the Hollow Slave, was once her father's.
1065
