6
7	''"I will not be future King of Dalv. I will be the immortal King of Earth! And it will be justified because '''I''' did it!"'''
8
9	The (currently) 17 year old prince of [[CityOfCanals Dalv Kingdom]]. Danny Masters is the only child of King Vlad and the next heir to the throne. [[ManipulativeBastard Manipulative]], rude, condescending, and clever, young Danny constantly [[ConsummateLiar pulls strings on everyone]] to get what he wants: [[TakeOverTheWorld World Domination]]. So naturally he can't let the Chaos Order ([[LampShade they're aware it's an oxymoron]]) get their hands on the [[MineralMacGuffin Seven Crystals]] that'll give them the push for global conquest (and the universe).
10
11	Adding to his attitude, Danny is a snobby young man who takes great pride in his political role. But he is also a chronic mama's boy and considers her to be a saint. Though he currently undergoes the typical [[EmoTeen teenage drama]] from his [[AmazinglyEmbarrassingParents father]], Danny is dangerously clingy towards him and refuses to share him with anyone else. He often treats those close to him as pawns in his plans, but he is slowly and surely realizing that they are his ''friends''...
12
13	%%* AntiHero
14	* ArrangedMarriage: With Paulina to secure alliance with Amity Nation. As far as anyone is concerned though, it's a loving marriage...right?
15	* ByronicHero: So much. He is growing ''worst'', even.
16	* TheCaligula: Danny is slowly edging towards this if not already at it!
17	* CharacterDevelopment: Very slowly, he's starting to realize that the people who care for him despite his attitude are truly worth keeping as friends, not pawns. Very slowly.
18	* CreepyChild: [[spoiler: He may have killed his great-grandfather because ''"He got in the way"'']].
19	%%zce* DefrostingIceKing: What he's slowly becoming.
20	* KissingCousins: He and Elliot are a little ''too'' close. Compared to distant cousin Danielle who is obsessive over Danny (much to his annoyance). [[spoiler: He is also drawn to Jazz, both of whom are unaware of their relation.]]
21	* MommasBoy: For that matter, this applies to his father as well
22	* MoralityPet: His father, Vlad. Probably the only person he respects...and ''fears''!
23	* PlatonicCoParenting: Vlad was a single father, but he had help from Skulker, Danny's godfather.
24	* ShipTease: The candidates are...''drumrolls... [[UnluckyChildhoodFriend Valerie]], [[SlapSlapKiss Sam]], [[ArrangedMarriage Paulina]], [[StarCrossedLovers Ghost Writer]], and [[ParentalIncest Vlad]]. Yes, ''Vlad''.

30	'''Vlad Masters'''
31
32	''"He...is no mere man. He sees with eyes uncloud."''
33
34	The recently turned 41-year-old current King of Dalv. It's hard to imagine how a man like him had a son like Danny. Vlad is kind, compassionate, open-minded, and caring. Having been an adventurer in his past, Vlad has seen much of the world and uses that experience to better the kingdom, largely contributing to the growing Roaring '20s. He is often [[BumblingDad childish despite his age]], but has years of wisdom. His #1 concern is his son whom he dotes on. He [[ParentalObliviousness may or may not]] be aware of Danny's goal for world domination.
35
36	Despite his beloved status and personality, Vlad struggles with his true inner feelings; one where he ''hates'' his job as King, feeling restricted and burdened with a duty he only took up for [[SurvivorGuilt Danny's sake]]. Sometimes, he wonders if it's right to blame Danny for all this...
37
38	* BlessedWithSuck: He got magic and tough skin out of the DealWithTheDevil that saved Danny's life, but it made him unable to swim or tolerate cold. On the other hand, he can walk into an ''active volcano''.
39	* BumblingDad: Sorta. He's a good father, he just acts like he's 24 (incidentally, the age when his son was born).
40	* ChildrenRaiseYou: Vlad was much more free-spirited before Danny came into his life.
41	* FriendlyNeighborhoodVampire: Vlad has to drink a quart of blood a month to survive. He uses pig's blood.
42	* ObfuscatingStupidity: Well, his Sifu ''was'' [[WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender Iroh]].
43	* PapaWolf: God forbid you do something bad to his son. He will go apeshit on you.
44	* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: He rather help out full frontal then stick around doing paperworks all day.
45	* SmokingIsCool: The reason why he smokes. Though he does this in secret.
46	* SurvivorGuilt: Why he sacrificed his freedom to be King and raise his son. He may be secretly resentful about it.
47	* TheUnfavorite: How Abe treats him. Vlad doesn't know he's actually Abe's favorite son.
48	* WideEyedIdealist: He firmly believes or tries to achieve alliance from all kingdoms, but he's smart enough to know that some nations (Nippon Empire) just don't want to be allied with in which he at least tries to stay on their good side.
49
50	'''Sir Skulker'''
51
52	''"Me? Well, I like baseball."'''
53
54	Skulker is Vlad's best friend. He may be the general of the Dalvian armed force and ridiculously huge, but he's really [[GentleGiant sweet and adorable]]. He's loyal to Vlad and anyone whom he deems as a friend, causing him to be reliable and honest, not to mention a doormat. He's in love with Sam Manson, but is too shy to say anything about it.
55
56	* EveryoneCanSeeIt: Except Sam. [[spoiler: Until [[WesternAnimation/HeyArnold Arnold]] told her. She's coping with this at the moment]].
57	* GentleGiant: He's a kind, sensitive soul who also happens to be massive.
58	* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: "Skulker" is a nickname. His real name was never revealed.
59	* OlderThanHeLooks: Physically, he is 25. Chronologically, he is 54.
60	* SecondLove: Skulker has fallen in love once before.
61	* UndyingLoyalty: To everyone he cares for, but especially to Vlad. As a result, he has the honor of being the caretaker of Danny (as well as godson) should Vlad ever die; something that Vlad would ''never'' give to anyone.
62	* WouldntHitAGirl: He's too much of a gentleman.
63
64	'''Valerie Gray'''
65
66	''"I'll keep working hard to one day defeat you and win your heart!"''
67
68	A top spy for the Dalvian Kingdom, Valerie Gray is an 18-year-old ActionGirl. She is aggressive, hot tempered, and quick to judge. Her behavior is through the poor and rough life she led as a child while her job as a spy is due to her thieving past. She is currently in love with Danny and is resentful of Paulina because of it.
69
70	* CharacterDevelopment: Valerie is slowly realizing that Danny is out of her reach and that she must move on.
71	* ForcefulKiss: How she got her (and Danny) got their first kiss.

73	* LoveTriangle: She sees herself as in one with Danny and Paulina.
74	* UnluckyChildhoodFriend: Well, not ''friend'' per se.
75
76	'''Sam Manson'''

79

She hopes to free the others who are enslaved by demonkind. Passionate, she often reacts whenever she feels something is wrong.

84	* ContemplateOurNavels: How Sam joins the army, quits, and continues her goal to find herself.
85	%%* DeadpanSnarker
86	%%* DesperatelyLookingForAPurposeInLife
87	* ImportantHaircut: What Sam does when she joins the army. It's also meant to signify that she is now trying to find a path in her life.
88	* SlapSlapKiss: She's one of the few who calls Danny off, though she may like him for that.
89	* SoapBoxSadie: Of sorts.
90
91	'''Cujo'''
92
93	Danny's dog, Cujo fell from the sky for reasons unexplained. She is unusually green and possess a number of strange powers. She is drawn to both Danny and Vlad and is connected to the Seven Crystals. How and why remains to be seen. For now, she's a cute, playful, and loyal dog.
94
95	* AmbiguousGender: Cujo's true gender was purposely kept out of the loop until the author revealed it later on.
96	* PetTheDog: Literally. Danny absolutely adores Cujo.
97
98	!!'''Secondary Characters'''
99
100	'''Kwan'''
101
102	* ChildrenAreInnocent: At first. However he is currently 12, so he's getting to that point where he starts to see pass the black and white, which [[GrowingUpSucks may really crush his happy nature]].
103	* KidSidekick: Or at least that's how Kwan sees himself with Dash.
104	* ParentalAbandonment: His mother means well, but she is too busy with her job to spend time with him. As he gets older, he feels more resentful.
105	* PrecociousCrush: For Star.
106	* PuppyLove: Kwan/Star
107	* TagalongKid: Much to Dash's dismay
108

115

122
123	!!'''The Masters' Family'''
124
125	The [[RoyallyScrewedUp desolate, crude, eccentric, borderline]] ''[[RoyallyScrewedUp insane]]'' Royal family of Dalv Kingdom. It composes of senile, recovering-from-Stroke, racist former King '''Abraham Masters''', his incredibly [[MayDecemberRomance young wife]], the dim-witted '''Tiffany Snow''', their son '''William''', Vlad's older half-brother, the easily scared and panicky ManChild '''Duke''', his son, the shrewd, stupid, dumbass '''Elliot''', and distant [[AnnoyingYoungerSibling cousin]], '''Danielle'''.
126
127	* AristocratsAreEvil: Duke was practically a dictator during his reign. Vlad's ruling was a BIG sigh of relief.
128	* DysfunctionJunction: Completely.
129	* TheEmpire: During Abe's rule.
130	* HeirClubForMen: Abe's old fashion belief of having male heirs (despite his mother born under the Masters' household and acting Queen in her years)
