| 18 | !!!'''Voiced By:''' Creator/KiraBuckland (English), Creator/HarukaTomatsu (Japanese), Rhee Yong Sin (Korean)\ |
| 19 | '''Attribute:''' Wind\ |
| 20 | '''Role:''' Support |
| 21 | |
| 22 | A rock guitarist on tour with her partner Sieg, Brynn awakened her Esper abilities when the pair's venue came under attack by Miramon. Brynn is the first Esper you start the game with; she's a support Esper with strong single-target damage and the ability both to empower her allies and weaken her foes. |
| 23 | * ''Cold Edge'' attacks an enemy twice, dealing 50% of her attack level, and has a percent chance of slowing her target's speed for the next 2 turns. |
| 24 | * ''Rock'n'Roll'' grants Brynn and both of her allies a boost to their attacks for the next 2 turns. |
| 25 | * ''Advent of the Goddess'' deals 250% of her attack level to an enemy and inflicts freeze for one turn. |
| 26 | ---- |
| 27 | * AnIcePerson: Her attacks all have ice properties, and her third spell inflicts freeze. |
| 28 | * BeatTheCurseOutOfHim: [[spoiler:Does this to Sieg at the end of the story to bring him back. She's fairly beaten up herself by that point, and passes out before she can see if it was successful.]] |
| 29 | * TheBusCameBack: After a long absence as a main character in the main story, she comes back in the ''Devouring Beast'' event. In her message history, she tells Tang Xuan that [[LampshadeHanging she simply is too inexperienced to be put in a lot of missions explaining her long absences]], unlike Tang Xuan, who by then was being run ragged by constantly going into serious missions. |
| 30 | * ChildhoodFriends: With Sieg. While he appears to have been an adult when they met, or at least an older teen, Brynn was a child. Per Brynn's description, the two have been inseparable since. |
| 31 | * CrutchCharacter: She gets easily outdone by other Espers ahead of her rarity. In fact, Dhalia - another Support Esper who can be easily obtained through Ripples - literally does everything Brynn does but better. |
| 32 | * DemotedToExtra: After coming back for ''Devouring Beast'', the game more or less drops her story mode importance over the amnesiac man (the player) taking a bigger role, and he's not even an Esper. |
| 33 | * {{Deuteragonist}}: Alongside Q, she's this in ''Devouring Beast.'' |
| 34 | * DualWielding: Her guitar turned into a big axe that she can divide in two to wield a piece on each hand. |
| 35 | * GoshDangItToHeck: She has a habit of saying "frick". [[AvertedTrope Averted]] by ''Devouring Beast,'' when she describes the Shadow Decree's actions as "doing a lot of shit." |
| 36 | * InstrumentOfMurder: When awakening as an esper, her guitar was partially transformed into a battle-axe. |
| 37 | * MeaningfulName: "Brynn" alludes to the Valkerie Brynhilrd, which is even more fitting next to her best friend Sieg (being short for the warrior Siegfried). |
| 38 | * MementoMacGuffin: Her necklace was an accessory (of two) given to her by her parents when she was orphaned, despite the fact they're actually pretty cheap. She gave the other one to Sieg as a sign that they were friends for life. |
| 39 | * OutOfFocus: Once the story mode is done, you'll very rarely ever see her in any other event/sidequest stories or Esper episodes, though this is finally averted when she returns in ''Devouring Beast.'' |
| 40 | * PerformanceAnxiety: This only seems to happen to her when expectations are high for certain concerts. In one little story with Lucas and Ahmed, she began to feel this after Lucas started improvising for getting too much into the zone. |
| 41 | * PowerGivesYouWings: Her transformation resulted in a pair of wings sprouting from her lower back. |
| 42 | * ThePowerOfRock: A rock musician by trade, she looks and acts the part too, dressed in punk fashion and carrying her guitar wherever she goes. |
| 43 | * StarterMon: One of the four Espers given to the player from the start. |
| 44 | * TrueCompanions: With Sieg, whom she has formed a rock n' roll duo with. |
| 45 | * {{Valkyries}}: Her design and skills all evoke classic depictions of Valkyries; [[PowerGivesYouWings she has a pair of angel wings]] (a common artistic choice when depicting Valkyries), fights with a battle axe (a weapon associated with Vikings and Norse warriors), has [[AnIcePerson ice powers]] (referencing the Norse climate), and constantly buffs her whole team (evoking a Valkyrie's preparing warriors for the battle of Ragnarök). Her name and pairing with Sieg also alludes to ''Theatre/TheRingOfTheNibelung'' with the pairing of the valkyrie Brünnhilde/Brynhildr and the warrior Siegfried. |
| 46 | * WhatTheHellHero: [[spoiler:Should she arrest Valeria prematurely, the rampages continue at Graywater even after a week, and Raven decides to assign her to simple Miramon exterminations for her inexperience at being deceived.]] |

| 55 | |
| 56 | !!!'''Voiced By:''' Karlton Sheley (English), Creator/HiroShimono (Japanese), Choi Nak-yoon (Korean)\ |
| 57 | '''Attribute:''' Inferno\ |
| 58 | '''Role:''' Fighter |
| 59 | |
| 60 | A butler, as well as operations lead, for the Esper Union. He was formerly the butler of House Ramses and Ollie's caretaker. Channeling the god of death, Anubis, has changed Drew into a humanoid jackal.\ |
| 61 | \ |
| 62 | Drew is a fighter whose spells can potentially decimate the entire enemy team, getting consecutive kills one after the other. |
| 63 | * ''Piercing Strike'' deals damage to an enemy that's equal to 100-130% of his attack level. If a critical hit lands, then the ability reduces the cooldown of ''Death's Judgment'' by one turn. |
| 64 | * ''Shadow Shock'' strikes an enemy, doing 200% of his attack level with a 70-85% chance of lowering their defense. |
| 65 | * Death’s Judgment'' deals damage to an enemy that's equal to 220-260% of his attack level. If the enemy dies, Drew does a bonus attack against a random enemy and does 150% attack. The bonus attack can be triggered twice within a turn. |
| 66 | ---- |
| 67 | |
| 68 | * ArtworkAndGameGraphicsSegregation: He has a total of ''three'' variations regarding his eyes: |
| 69 | ** His "The Show Begins" appearance depicts him with purple eyes with green pupils. |
| 70 | ** His in-game art has the above, except his pupils are white. |
| 71 | ** His in-game model changes his eyes to all white ''without'' pupils. |
| 72 | *** At least, in general, the tone of his dark skin can either be darker or lighter. |
| 73 | * BattleButler: He tends to the Esper Union's HQ outside of missions and was previously the head butler of the House Ramses before its downfall. When on the field though, he's a deadly swordsman and a strong pick for DPS. |
| 74 | * BeastMan: His esper transformation changed him into a humanoid jackal, much like the god Anubis himself. |
| 75 | * BreakingTheFourthWall: He's the one who sends notifications to the player (calling them an Esper), despite the player not being an actual character within the game (Brynn is her own person). |
| 76 | * DanceBattler: At one point, his fighting style is described as him dancing while slashing his foes. |
| 77 | * DarkIsNotEvil: As an avatar of the Egyptian death god Anubis, Drew has a very eerie appearance and has shadow-based attacks. However, he's firmly on the side of good and works for the heroic Esper Union. |
| 78 | * ExpressiveEars: Invoked to a point. Q points out to Lucas that it's easy to tell Drew's moods with the way his ears move, though it can be very confusing and not indicative of his moods. |
| 79 | * ItsPersonal: Has a vendetta on Leon, who was the one who [[spoiler:destroyed House Ramses.]] |
| 80 | * MyGreatestFailure: His failure over preventing the fall of House Ramses weighs heavily in his mind. [[spoiler:Far more so when he was unable to serve Ollie, who despises Drew for not saving his father.]] |
| 81 | * PlayingWithFire: Drew's attribute is Inferno and purplish flames appear when he attacks. |
| 82 | * PrettyButterflies: A mystical purple butterfly flies around him (as shown in the picture). |
| 83 | * TheReliableOne: He knows absolutely ''everything'' about every Esper in the Union that he's often the one people come to ask for answers to their problems. |
| 84 | * SeriesMascot: He's on the game's icon and appears in most of the advertisements. In the story mode proper, [[spoiler:after Q has to back out from sustaining grave injuries, he's the only character next to Brynn to stay around for the rest of the story. He's even given more focus when his protegee Ollie comes into the story for several chapters.]] |
| 85 | * SimpleYetAwesome: Despite being a rare esper, he is easily one of the best units in the game and you are assured of getting him upon starting out. He is often seen in plenty of [=PvE=] content due to his low cooldown defense break and massive single hit damage, and is seen a lot of use in Cube Miracle because of how Death's Judgment works with multiple runes, cleaning mobs quickly. His choice of relics are simple and his desired stats are easy to work with. |
| 86 | * StarterMon: One of the four Espers given to the player, though he joins a bit later in Chapter 1. |
| 87 | * TallDarkAndHandsome: The Show Begins intro has Melanie describe him as this: |
| 88 | --->'''Melanie''': [Brynn's] partner, Drew, is one, big, ''scary'' jackal... I'd like to have him for dinner. |
| 89 | * TrademarkFavoriteDrink: He loves tea. He also loves his talk of tea that, at one point, he bores Q's audience when he goes at length what he does in his mornings involving tea. |
| 90 | * YoungerThanHeLooks: Between his manner of speaking, and Q constantly calling him "Old man", you'd think Drew would be elderly. Would you believe he's 35? |
| 91 | [[/folder]] |

| 93 | [[folder:Q (Eros)]] |
| 94 | [[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/q_eros.png]] |

| 96 | !!!'''Voiced By:''' Alejandro Arias (English), Creator/NatsukiHanae (Japanese), Shim Gyu-hyeok (Korean)\ |
| 97 | '''Attribute:''' Shimmer\ |
| 98 | '''Role:''' Support\ |
| 99 | |
| 100 | A young-looking social influencer who happens to be an Esper Union Ops Chief, he joins Brynn in her search for Sieg.\ |
| 101 | \ |
| 102 | Q is a Support Esper who's able to deal damage, with his Ultimate, ''Joke of the Aether'' forcing two enemy targets to share damage. With this and rebuffing them, he and his allies are capable of doing large damage. |
| 103 | |
| 104 | * ''Lover's Curse'' does damage to an enemy equal to 120% damage of Q's attack stat with a 75& chance of lowering their defense for 2 turns. |
| 105 | * ''Heartbreaker'' deals damage to all enemies equal to 100% of his attack stat with a 75% chance of lowering their attack for 2 turns. |
| 106 | * ''Joke of the Aether'' Locks onto an enemy and picks another randomly right before it deals damage to both equal to 180% of his attack stat and inflicting the Link status[[note]]when a Linked unit is attacked, their counterpart receives True Damage that's equal to 80& of the damage that's dealt in this attack.[[/note]]. |
| 107 | ---- |
| 108 | * AttentionWhore: Due to his SelfieFiend nature, though it's not as bad as David's (though barely). |
| 109 | * BirdsOfAFeather: He is able to relate with Liam by bringing up the troubles Q went when he transformed and changed his whole life, though he manages to teach Liam that, while forgetting the past shouldn't be done, it's better to look to the future and reshape life to something good. |
| 110 | * BlessedWithSuck: He considered his Esper transformation to be this, since the first thing that went wrong was his girlfriend dropping their relationship because dating a "kid" like him would probably make it punishable by law. Only after a time did he start to make the best of it and became a vlog sensation. |
| 111 | * CasanovaWannabe: He is introduced by saying he heard by someone hot is joining the Esper Union and asking if she's willing to wear a bikini for his vlog as he films. Q then squees over Brynn's wings and [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything asks if he can squeeze them]] and Discboom calls him out on his creepiness. When he first meets Celine in Chapter 2, he compliments her by calling her a 'perfect snack' before remembering to say that Brynn's squad needs his help. While Celine doesn't seem to be bothered, she shrugs off his remarks. |
| 112 | * {{Deuteragonist}}: Alongside Brynn in ''Devouring Beast''. |
| 113 | * HiddenDepths: Despite his snarky, pervy attitude, Q has a more tender side. |
| 114 | ** In his Careers section, it's mentioned that even though he gets annoyed about the shenanigans of his Esper Union colleagues, he is relieved that he's still in a place where he belongs, especially since he knows that everyone at the Union has a DarkAndTroubledPast and their own struggles. |
| 115 | ** Out of all of his mischievous online antics, sometimes he genuinely wants to cheer up his viewers and finds that laughter is the most beautiful sound. |
| 116 | ** In Chapter 4 when Brynn's team ventures into the abandoned Hazlitt, he soars up to see the sight of the ruined city and sighs at it, depressed over how it got even worse. In particular, he recalls that he and his close friend, Joe, promised to escape the city together during the Hazlitt Migration but the latter decided to stay. It led to a fight about how Joe backed out of his promise and that was the last time Q saw him prior to returning to Hazlitt and he's still upset about losing his friend. |
| 117 | ** He makes a breakthrough with Liam relating his own experiences when his transformation had made him lose a date with a girl who refused to go out with him looking like a boy (she though it'd be punishable by law) but Q managed to push forward because his friends supported him, which is why he wants Liam to know his sister may have a temper but knows she dearly wants to help him. |
| 118 | * {{Irony}}: Despite being the Esper of the Greek god of love, snooping through Tang Xuan's phone in ''Sea of Sorrow'' reveals that Q's only ever been in one relationship. Not only that, but the relationship only lasted ''10 hours'' because Q underwent his Esper transformation that very night, and his date presumably ditched him afterwards. |
| 119 | * ItsPersonal: He's at odds with Anesidora for [[spoiler:experimenting on his friend Joe, which led to his death.]] |
| 120 | * KnightInSourArmor: After the death of a close friend, Q became cynical of humanity (it's even mentioned in his profile that his favorite is cynicism). However he didn't want to stand idly when tragedy happens, so he worked hard to become an Ops Chief and believes that while the world doesn't lack love, it lacks people willing to leave their comfort zones to inspire others, which is the change he hopes that'll inspire the world. |
| 121 | * LoveGod: Q is the representation of the Greek love god, Eros, thus his attacks are love and heart-based and he has a pervy, CasanovaWannabe attitude. His Ultimate, ''Joke of the Aether'' forcibly links two enemies up, bringing to mind of couples and how love gods tend to be TheMatchmaker. |
| 122 | * NotGrowingUpSucks: Q was once angsty over his youthful appearance brought upon by his Esper Transformation as it made him believe that he's a freak. However, upon joining the Esper Union and seeing that there are other 'freaks' like him, Q became relieved to be somewhere he belongs and thus implied that he accepted his appearance. |
| 123 | * OneLetterName: His name is just Q. Whether or not this is short for something hasn’t been elaborated on. |
| 124 | * OlderThanTheyLook: Despite looking like a young child, Q is actually 26 years old. |
| 125 | * PutOnABus: [[spoiler:By the conclusion of Chapter 4, he's injured by Leon and has to be put in recovery. He only returns during the last chapter.]] |
| 126 | * SadlyMythtaken: Eros in Myth/ClassicalMythology is usually depicted as an attractive young man. The idea of Eros/Cupid being a WingedHumanoid with the appearance of a child is a modern invention. |
| 127 | * TokenMiniMoe: He's the only playable character who resembles a child and has an overall cutesy appearance [[{{Irony}} despite his actual age]]. In fact, at the end of Chapter 1 where Brynn and her companions celebrate her officially joining the Esper Union and forming a squad by toasting their drinks, Q is short enough to the point he needed to stand on the still as he toasted. |
| 128 | ** His [[https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/dislyte/images/0/0a/Q_Album_02.png/revision/latest?cb=20220802222731 second album art]] reveals his previous appearance before his Esper transformation. |
| 129 | * TheFriendNobodyLikes: Q's impulsive pranks such as taking Brynn's necklace and having pervy tendencies have left him a jerk loathed by others. Though this is not always the case. |
| 130 | * SelfieFiend: His victory animation even pictures him taking a selfie with a peace sign. |
| 131 | * SkewedPriorities: The Show Begins opening has him repeatedly taking selfies and video while Brynn and Drew are fighting Miramon. Hilariously, as they and one large Miramon are about to clash, they ''all'' stop when Q's camera flash goes off to look incredulously at him: |
| 132 | --->'''Brynn''': ''Really?'' |
| 133 | * StarterMon: Q is one of the four Espers obtained for free by clearing the first story chapter. He's obtained by clearing the sixth stage specifically. |
| 134 | * WingedHumanoid: He has wings sprouting out of his head that he uses to float and fly, which fits in how Eros of myth is usually portrayed as a winged human. |

| 141 | '''Attribute:''' Wind\ |
| 142 | '''Role:''' Fighter |
| 143 | |
| 144 | A former teen idol obsessed with his looks. He is a fighter Esper who thrives on stealing buffs from foes while empowering himself. |
| 145 | |
| 146 | * ''Roundhouse Dance'' attacks an enemy, dealing damage based on David's ATK. It also has a chance to inflict ATK Down. |
| 147 | * ''Moonwalk'' will dispell a debuff from David and taunt a random enemy if David is unable to take action before his turn starts. When ascended, this ability has a chance to trigger whenever David is attacked. |
| 148 | * ''Curtain Call'' attacks an enemy three times, each hit dealing damage based on David's ATK and stealing a buff from the target. David then does a finishing blow, dealing more damage and stunning the target. This ability also lowers the target's AP by a certain percentage for each buff stolen from them. |
| 149 | ---- |
| 150 | * AttentionWhore: He (and Lucas) tries to shove himself into one of Q's video vlogs, despite Q's annoyance and attempts to flee from him. |
| 151 | * BrokenAesop: He tells Q that all the good photos he took with him (where David appeared just fine but Q repeatedly got bad shots) were pretty good because many people following David's social account commented that they were works of art and that it's worth the risk to feel optimistic...except, as Q pointed out, it worked for David because he had pretty good shots, not Q himself. |
| 152 | * ChasteHero: Has no idea that his best friend Chloe, the only one who gives him harsh comments in his posts in an effort to get him to come to her Fashion Studio to treat him, is secretly in love with him. He ''does'' believe she loves him, but only through stuff that makes her roll her eyes. This is a nod to the Greek hero Jason, who later came to marry Medea (whom Chloe's powers are based from). |
| 153 | * DanceBattler: A very dedicated one, though not above asking Q and Lucas many times to come watch him dance, annoying them when he dances too much and ignores them completely. |
| 154 | * {{Deuteragonist}}: Alongside Mona, during ''Bemusement Park.'' |
| 155 | * TheNarcissist: So much that seeing a small pimple on his face panics him. However, he still risks his looks in the heat of battle. |
| 156 | * PerpetualSmiler: He will always attempt to keep on smiling in order to make others happy around him, but dreads the day someone may take an unflattering picture of him. |
| 157 | * ThePollyanna: Believes that people will rally behind him as long as he can keep up a positive attitude. But when he's alone, his face reflects the burdens placed on his shoulders. |
| 158 | * RiseOfZitboy: Even though he's matured, the sight of a small pimple makes him feel like everything's over. |
| 159 | * ThoseTwoGuys: With Lucas, often getting on Q's nerves. |
| 160 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: Soda. He fears that there may be a connection between soda causing pimples. |
| 161 | * TraumaCongaLine: ''Heavily'' invoked and PlayedForLaughs to the audience. In his diary entry, he complains so much that his journey out of adolescence has been one pimple after another. |
| 162 | * UnknownRival: Towards Leora, only because she's more popular in the news, though she has no clue about this rivalry. |
| 163 | * WackySoundEffect: For some strange reason, his ''Moonwalk'' skill makes him do a weird high-pitched "brr!" sound that it's become a point of ridicule in his reviews. |
| 164 | * WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: He's deathly afraid of ghosts and is a shivering mess for almost the entirity of ''Bemusement Park''. Doesn't help that Mona constantly teases him about it. |

| 177 | * ''Downfall'' attacks an enemy twice. Each hit deals damage equivalent to a percentage of Helena's ATK and lowers the target's AP. |
| 178 | * ''Whispered Blessing'' heals the whole party for a percentage of their max HP. One selected party member gets healed more than the others. Ascending this ability also grants the party C. RATE Up for a short while. |
| 179 | ---- |
| 180 | * BeYourself: Due to her rural roots, she presented herself as an urban socialite to conceal her real roots until she grew sick of her phony persona and started sharing tips on fashion, brands, and accessories affordable to the general public. |
| 181 | * BirdsOfAFeather: She and Q have similarities as social media influencers. |
| 182 | * CassandraTruth: Her own mother doesn't believe that she's working for the Esper Union at all, even when told otherwise. |

| 210 | * GreenThumb: Very much attuned with plants, so much so that the Esper Union is constantly filled with the pleasant aroma of nature. |

When ascended, if the target is inflicted with Dizzy Daze, Jin-hee will absorb all of their AP. Dizzy Daze is a debuff that incapacitates the target and increases Jin-hee’s AP every time they’re hit. |
| 451 | * ''Cyclone Screw'' grants each ally a random buff depending on their attribute, increasing either ATK, SPD, C. RATE, or DEF. Then, she deals damage to an enemy based on her ATK, inflicting Dizzy Daze. |

| 453 | * AnArmAndALeg: During the destruction of Hazlit, she lost her right hand, which briefly put an end of her baseball dream until she awakened to her Esper powers, which helped her regain her right hand. |
| 454 | * BreakingOldTrends: Along with Koharu, she’s the first East Asian Esper to not be Chinese, being Korean instead. |
| 455 | * BullyHunter: She dislikes bullies and will try to scold them when she sees them. |
| 456 | * CareerEndingInjury: Her baseball career ended after she lost her right hand during the destruction of Hazlit. Her Esper powers gave her a replacement hand. |

| 458 | * DarkAndTroubledPast: She lost her right hand when Hazlit was destroyed by Miramon, right when she was about to become a professional baseball player. Then, she was homeless for 2 years at Amuse Street. |
| 459 | * DubNameChange: Her name in the Japanese version is Maki. |
| 460 | * HiddenDepths: It's all but stated that she was orphaned by her parents since she can remember, but she wishes to see them due to her fascination for parent-child shows she's defensive about. Her Divinate info mentions that she's not sure if her parents were worried for her or disappointed on her for losing big games they could profit on. |
| 461 | * ICouldaBeenAContender: She was about to become a professional baseball player right before Hazlit was destroyed the same day and caused her to lose her right hand. |
| 462 | * IKnowMaddenKombat: Among the many Espers who have more conventional weapons for battle, hers is tossing baseballs empowered with her Esper powers. |
| 463 | * MsFanservice: Short clothes, large buxom with CleavageWindow and a lot of JigglePhysics, home-run. |
| 464 | * NoSenseOfPersonalSpace: She ends up finding Ife's unnamed diary and reads a bit through it out of curiosity, finding out that Ife wishes to play baseball with friends. Interested, Jin-hee turns the diary over to Lost and Found, and she waited until the dead of night to find a sneaky Ife claiming it by her lonesome. However, Jin-hee later offers to play baseball with her just to make her wish come true. |
| 465 | * OurGoblinsAreDifferent: She borrows her Esper powers from the Korean goblin Dokkaebi. Fittingly, they were known for playing tricks, which is what Jin-hee does for her pitching skills. Her baseball glove even resembles the face of a goblin. |
| 466 | * ShoutOut: Her summoning animation has her doing a gymnastics move called an illusion, the very same move done by Korean gymnast Shin Soo-ji before throwing a pitch at a baseball game in [[https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=RVeo6QMcbW4 this viral clip]]. |
| 467 | * StepfordSmiler: People who know her can tell that her peppy mannerisms and behavior hide a lot of details behind her troubled past. |
| 468 | * ThoseTwoGuys: Has this dynamic with Bardon, who's also in the same class as her. |

| 476 | '''Role''': Support |
| 477 | |
| 478 | A Union Academy Teacher and assassin who knows everything about any Esper. She is a support Esper who is able to buff allies offensively while slowing some foes down. |
| 479 | |
| 480 | * ''Sneak Attack'' attacks an enemy, dealing damage based on Dhalia's ATK with a chance to stun the target. |
| 481 | * ''Umbra Attack'' attacks an enemy three times. Each hit does damage based off Dhalia's ATK and has a chance to inflict SPD Down. If the target already has SPD Down, she'll inflict Freeze for an additional turn. |
| 482 | * ''Sonic Camo'' grants an AP bonus to the party. When ascended, it'll also grant ATK UP and C. RATE UP. |
| 483 | ---- |
| 484 | * {{Blackmail}}: Everyone fears her because she may know an Esper's deepest secrets, leading to an endless stream of bribes involving giving her blueberries so she doesn't divulge anything. |
| 485 | * DarkAndTroubledPast: She couldn't get over the death of her mentor, which she believed was caused by her carelessness during an assassination mission. |
| 486 | * DefrostingIceQueen: It was her mentor who slowly made her open up because he believed in Dhalia when everyone else didn't. When he died, it was through her student Ife that she finally began to show a gentler side of herself. |
| 487 | * {{Delinquent}}: She was formerly a delinquent when she was young, causing her parents a lot of grief. She didn't get better when she was old enough to be sent to the military, where her stubborn streak caused so much trouble to her superiors. ''Then'' she was sent to the special forces after she was almost ''court-martialed.'' It wasn't until she was trained to become an assassin that she finally wised up. |
| 488 | * FalseReassurance: When she's bribed with blueberries from the people who don't wish her to say any dirt she has on them, she calms them down by saying that the dirt is just notes for observational purposes only. No one believes that, as evidenced by the endless stream of blueberries at her door. |
| 489 | * TheHerosIdol: She's this to her student Ife, who idolizes Dhalia as a protagonist in Ife's spy movies. |
| 490 | * IceQueen: She once was this when she was younger, keeping to herself and never forming ties with anyone. As her powers are based on Calypso, it refers to how Calypso was a recluse in her island. |
| 491 | * {{Irony}}: She was a delinquent who caused so much trouble to her parents and military teachers, and then she ended up becoming a teacher for the Union. |
| 492 | * ItsAllMyFault: She beat herself up when her mentor died apparently due to her own carelessness while he tried to help her enact her revenge. |
| 493 | * MentorOccupationalHazard: It was the death of her military mentor and supervisor that finally convinced her to become a better person. |
| 494 | * MoralityPet: Ife, one of her students, whom Dhalia can't help but be reminded of herself in her due to also getting a second chance at the academy just like how Dhalia was given a second chance by her former mentor. |
| 495 | * ProfessionalKiller: A stealthy assassin. Fittingly for her profession, her powers are based on the Greek Goddess Calypso, whose name means "to cover," "to conceal," or "to hide." |
| 496 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: Blueberries. Giving her some is enough to stop her from spilling any dirt she has on any person. |

| 507 | |
| 508 | A top medical, fashionable doctor within the Union. She is a support Esper who focuses on healing and dispelling debuffs for greater healing. |
| 509 | |
| 510 | * ''Silvermoon Kiss'' deals damage equal to a percentage of Heng Yue’s ATK and dispels a buff from the target. |
| 511 | * ''Undying Elixir'' is a passive ability. At the end of each turn, it heals whoever has the lowest HP by a percentage of their Max HP and dispels a debuff from them. When ascended, the ability also grants Recovery if the target’s HP is below a certain amount. |
| 512 | * ''Golden Moon'' dispels all ally debuffs and heals them for a percentage of their Max HP, plus an extra percentage for each debuff dispelled. |
| 513 | ---- |
| 514 | * BeYourself: She gave Lauren advice to not feel bad about her frog-like appearance being abhorrent to people, and that her medical skills are what matter the most. Given what Heng Yue has gone through herself not only because of her glaring rabbit ears but because of her social standing, she knows what she's saying. |
| 515 | * BlessedWithSuck: Discussed. She argues with Ahmed that it's best for Espers to go back to being normal people which is why she's researching a way to reverse Esper transformation, as she sees more negatives than positives on being an Esper. Ahmed is unable to change her mind, but both agree to disagree. |
| 516 | * BunnyEarsLawyer: Literal bunny ears aside, Heng Yue has a glamorous appearance, a great interest in fashion, and carries herself with the cold yet alluring air of a supermodel. She also has a doctorate in pharmaceutical engineering and is one of the Esper Union’s best medics. |
| 517 | * TheCasanova: A female version towards men, though it's only rumored that she only gives preferential treatment to handsome men. |
| 518 | * TheFashionista: Her favorite hobby. She's so good at it that she's able to get a new frog helmet for Lauren to wear after her current one was wearing down. It's rumored that Heng Yue was once a supermodel, though she was at least a model to pay for her medical studies. |
| 519 | * FreudianExcuse: Her wish to develop a way for Espers to go back to being normal humans may be attributed to her personal experiences trying to become a doctor but was judged and promoted by her family as being skillful at it through her Esper powers, which wasn't the case. |
| 520 | * GoodIsNotNice: According to her Divinate info, she is harsher on treating patients who purposely injure themselves. |
| 521 | * ImpossibleHourglassFigure: It’s hard to tell because her coat mostly hides it, but a look at her Album art shows that she’s got this in spades. |
| 522 | * LittleBitBeastly: She has a pair of rabbit ears. |
| 523 | * TheMedic: A famous one among the Union's bestest. It fits that she's modeled after Chang'e, who was also a medic capable of making the Elixir of Immortality. |
| 524 | * MoonRabbit: She is modeled after the Chinese goddess of the moon Chang'e, who's preferred animal was the rabbit, stated to aid Chang'e in pounding the herbs that make the Elixir of Immortality into a powder. |
| 525 | * NeverASelfMadeWoman: People believe that she got so far in life because of her family connections, which is a lie. Her family did give her resources, but most of her achievements come from her own sweat and blood. Unfortunately, things became complicated. Before she became an Esper, her successes were attributed to her family. After she became an Esper, her successes were then attributed to her divine powers. Her family then took advantage of her powers by telling everyone about them to enhance their reputation and social standing, undermining her medical know-how. She was less than pleased and almost swore off her profession until she met Feng Nuxi, convincing her to join the Union, where her medical research is supported and given the respect it deserves. |
| 526 | * NoSmoking: In an early version of the beta, Heng Yue’s character art had her smoking a cigarette, while a voice line had her say that she knows the danger of smoking because she’s a doctor. Both of these were changed or removed before the official launch of the game. |
| 527 | * TheSmartGirl: Obtained her doctorate degree in record time and went on to become scouted by a well-known pharmaceutical company. |

| 537 | A popular cheerful dancer in the Union who can bring smiles to anyone. She is a controller Esper who can freeze foes and slow some down. |
| 538 | |
| 539 | * ''Satin Strike'' deals damage to an enemy based on Kaylee’s ATK. If she has C. RATE UP and lands a critical hit, the duration of C. RATE UP is extended. This attack does bonus damage to frozen enemies. |
| 540 | * ''Criss Cross'' attacks an enemy three times, dealing damage based on Kaylee’s ATK. Each hit has a chance to lower the target’s AP. When ascended, if Kaylee lands a critical hit, she has a chance to dispell a buff from the target and a smaller chance to freeze them. |
| 541 | * ''Dance of Deluge'' grants Kaylee C. RATE. UP and attacks all enemies three times, dealing damage based on Kaylee’s ATK. If Kaylee lands a critical hit, she has a chance to inflict Freeze. |
| 542 | ---- |
| 543 | * AttentionDeficitOohShiny: One of her biggest shortcomings is her short attention span, next to her forgetfulness. |
| 544 | * DanceBattler: Her main method of fighting. |
| 545 | * ItWasAGift: The rubies and sapphiers she wears aren't part of her Esper look, but rather they were gifts from her sister. Kaylee fondly recalls her sister's smile whenever she sees them. |
| 546 | * KindheartedCatLover: She has a pet cat named Chili. |
| 547 | * TheKlutz: She's rather disorganized, and it doesn't help that she's forgetful. |
| 548 | * MakingASplash: Uses water to attack and as part of her dances, referencing how Anuket was the personification of the Nile River. |
| 549 | * ThePollyanna: Incredibly cheerful, she has endured the death of her deaf sister. |
| 550 | * ThePromise: She made a promise to her sister that Kaylee would perform in the biggest stage and light up the faces of everyone attending. |
| 551 | * PosthumousSibling: Her deaf sister had passed away sometime after Kaylee's 12th birthday. |
| 552 | * TrueCompanions: |
| 553 | ** With Tiye, as Kaylee is the only one who can (maybe) understand Tiye's crazy cosmic ramblings to translate to others. |
| 554 | ** With Daylon, because she learned not to judge people by their appearances when he went all the way trying to find her lost Union ID 2 years ago. Since she's a klutz, Daylon's reliability is precious to her. |

| 566 | A GamerChick who ran away from home and its strict socialite lifestyle. Mona is a fighter that specializes at whittling down enemies with volleys of arrows and then finishing them off one-by-one. |
| 567 | * ''Moonshot'' hits a single enemy, which deals damage equal to 130% of Mona's attack stat. If the attack kills the enemy, Mona gets another turn. |
| 568 | * ''Hunter's Mark'' hits all enemies on the field, dealing damage equal to 70% of her attack stat. It also heals Mona by 30% of the attack dealt. |
| 569 | * ''Lunar Hail'' hits all enemies 4 times, with the combined damage equaling 115% of her attack stat. It also increases critical damage by 30%. |
| 570 | ---- |
| 571 | * AloofAlly: She hides her meticulous nature under her casual, aloof personality as the former reminds her of her father. However, upon joining the Esper Union, she ended up embracing it. |
| 572 | * AloofArcher: Which she translated to shooting video games. |
| 573 | * AnimalMotifs: Her bow resembles the head of a deer, an animal commonly associated with Artemis. |
| 574 | * TheDeterminator: Her fourth career profile describes how she refuses to lose to anyone, whether it be in gaming or an actual fight. This too goes into her Esper Union work even if she's having a fever. |
| 575 | * * {{Deuteragonist}}: Alongside David, in ''Bemusement Park''. |
| 576 | * EnergyBow: While the part of the bow she holds onto is solid, the rest of it (including the arrows and string) is all some kind of HardLight. |
| 577 | * ExtraTurn: Gets a bonus turn whenever she gets a kill with her first ability, ''Moonshot''. |
| 578 | * FantasyForbiddingFather: Her parents, particularly her father, were not supportive of her passions for gaming, as it went against their expectations for her. This is part of the reason why she rebelled against them. |
| 579 | * FollowInMyFootsteps: Her prestigious family wanted her to grow up to be prim and proper and follow in her father’s footsteps as sophisticated and elegant. Mona wanted the opposite of this, which led to her rebelling against her father and running away. |
| 580 | * GamerChick: She has a 50-win streak in the arcade game Alley Brawler, making her be considered a legend at the Gyrate Metro Arcade and is stated to be a proud girl competing in a male-dominated video game world. |
| 581 | * GenerationXerox: To her chagrin, her serious side reminds her of her strict father. |
| 582 | * GodOfTheMoon: Being the Esper of Artemis, many of her attacks are moon-themed. Her ‘’Moon Goddess’’ skin leans a lot more into the trope, with even her bow being shaped like a crescent moon. |
| 583 | * GreatBow: Although most of it is made HardLight, her bow still looks to be almost as big as she is. Her ‘’Moon Goddess’’ skin makes it even bigger as well as being shaped like a large crescent. |
| 584 | * HeroWithBadPublicity: Discussed. She dislikes how the normal populace sees Espers as the main culprits for what caused the chaos since the Miracle arrived, but she truly believes that Espers are meant to protect the innocent. |
| 585 | * {{Irony}}: She likes being recognized as an expert gamer even when she turns down new challengers which is indirect praise for her, but her work for the Esper Union leaves her embarrassed from all the praise she gets there. |
| 586 | * PerpetualFrowner: Strangely, her artwork and in-game mugshot depict her with a frown most of the time, though her Esper model shows her with a smile. |
| 587 | * RainOfArrows: Her third ability, ''Lunar Hail'', sees her do this to attack the entire enemy party. |
| 588 | * RebelliousPrincess: Though not exactly princessly, she was raised by her father from her prestigious Hazlitt family to become a sophisticated young lady. She went against ''everything'' he did for her and did the exact opposite, right down to his expectations on fashion. At least she kept the gown under her jacket. |
| 589 | * RedOniBlueOni: The Red Oni to Arcana's Blue Oni. |
| 590 | * SpellMyNameWithAnS: Depending on what piece of art you’re looking at, the word on her hat is either “Power” or “Powher”. Her story sprite avoids this entirely, with the hat instead displaying a bunch of abstract symbols rather than an actual word. |
| 591 | * SmallNameBigEgo: She is often challenged by other players below her skill level, though she always turns them down. However, she is very pleased from getting recognition. |
| 592 | * StarterMon: She’s given to the player for free during the tutorial of the gacha system. Unlike Brynn, Drew, or Q, she doesn't have a role in the main story, though. |
| 593 | * SweetTooth: Lollipops being her favorite, though she tries not to make her love for sweets too obvious. |
| 594 | * TrueCompanions: With Arcana, who's also her mentor (not that she'll ever tell him because it'll go to his head if she praised him). |
| 595 | * UnknownRival: Her highest score is beat at Alley Brawler and she declares the mysterious high scorer as a rival, though she doesn't find out who the man is.

| 615 | * ChildhoodFriends: With Triki. However, her joining the Esper Union caused a disagreement between the two, due to Triki's negative views on the Union. Still, Eira wants to prove Triki (and herself) that she made the right decision joining the Union. |

| 632 | * ''Down Your Cups'' deals damage to an enemy based on Stewart's ATK and has a chance too put the target to sleep. |
| 633 | * ''Soundly Dreams'' deals damage to an enemy based on Stewart's ATK. If the target's HP falls below a certain amount after being hit, this attack puts them to sleep. |
| 634 | * ''Time Vortex'' deals damage to an enemy based on Stewart's ATK at the cost of some of his HP. If he lands a critical hit, he'll do bonus damage based on the target's max HP (which cannot exceed a certain percentage of Stewart's ATK). This attack also puts both Stewart and the target to sleep. When ascended, if Stewart is woken from his Sleep atatus by an enemy, he'll counterattack with ''Soundly Dreams''. |
| 635 | ---- |

| 639 | * FriendToAllChildren: Children love him, and they are quick to calm down their mess before a class starts once he decides that it's time to start the class. |
| 640 | * HandsOffParenting: He is extremely laidback on his students that he lets them misbehave a little, though he will punish them when a student starts behaving immorally. He even likes to drink wine around them, but no bad incidents have occurred. It's saying something when he has won an award for best teacher. |

| 646 | * MoonwalkDance: His menu entrance has him moonwalking into view, perhaps because he's drunk. |

When Eye of Horus wears off, it deals True Damage equal to a percentage of the damage that the carrier received while the debuff was active. When this ability is ascended, if Falken counterattacks with ''Falconer'', he will also heal himself. |
| 662 | * ''Falconer'' deals damage to all enemies equal to a mix of Falken’s ATK and a percentage any HP he’s lost, and has a chance to inflict ATK Down. |
| 663 | ---- |
| 664 | * AnimalMotifs: The falcon/eagle, which represents the Egyptian god Horus. Fittingly, Falken's own name sounds like "falcon." |
| 665 | * BenevolentBoss: One of his many good traits that make his subjects respect him. |
| 666 | * CantHoldTheirLiquor: One story had him, Lin Xiao, Donar, and Gabrielle discussing who was the best commander because their subordinates kept talking about it. After Gabrielle suggested for a toast...things got out of hand, and everything ended with everyone seeing camera footage of their commanders drunk out of their asses after having a fight. |
| 667 | * CounterAttack: If an enemy that is attacking him or his teammates has the Eye of Horus debuff, he will counterattack with his basic ability and has a 15% chance of retaliating with his ultimate, ''Falconer''. |
| 668 | * DarkIsNotEvil: Like many Espers with dark motifs, he's actually very nice, but he's socially awkward (though people just think he's always so serious and should't be disturbed). |
| 669 | * DrawAggro: ''Judgement'' can taunt the targeted enemy. |
| 670 | * TheDreaded: Nearly no one in the Union can brave him just being around everyone because he looks so damn serious all the time. Just walking into a room full of laughter causes everyone to stop and excuse themselves. Laura tried to give him some tips to get people to open up to him...but it only made things worse. When he tried to invite David for a "chat" in his office... |
| 671 | --->'''Q''': Dude. You're dead. |
| 672 | * EvilFormerFriend: To Sander, who left the Esper Union due to having a wider view of the world through the Shadow Decree. It's the topic among Falken's associates whenever they try to learn about his past with Sander. |
| 673 | * AFatherToHisMen: Ever since [[spoiler:Sander paid for all his family's debts himself]], Falken has chosen to put himself between them and any harm coming their way. |
| 674 | * FriendlessBackground: Didn't even have companions during his time trying to help his family out with their debts. |
| 675 | * TheDreaded: His overall broody-like appearance makes many in his team fear talking to him, thinking that's often thinking some very important stuff. Most of the time, though, he's just daydreaming or just looking at birds on branches from his office. |
| 676 | * GoneHorriblyRight: His fishing lessons to Ye Suhua somehow ended up convincing the Fishing Club to overstock the Esper Union cafeteria with way too much fish to appease him that caused many people to complain (and one welcomed [[TheQuisling their new Fishing Club overlords]]). |
| 677 | * HiddenDepths: In his life trying to make ends meet while helping to pay his family's overwhelming debts, he turns out to have incredible survival skills like fishing with just his bare hands, which he easily teaches Ye Suhua to learn for herself. |
| 678 | * IOweYouMyLife: It was through Sander saving him during some serious trouble who convinced Falken to join the Esper Union in order to pay for his family's debts. But despite joining there, [[spoiler:it was Sander himself who paid for all his debts using his ''own'' money, which further made Falken indebted to him.]] |
| 679 | * IronicEcho: Compare his second profile line with Sander's: |
| 680 | --->'''Falken''': ''An eagle wouldn't tolerate a grain of sand in its eye.'' |
| 681 | --->'''Sander''': ''A grain of sand can't escape the whirlwind.'' |
| 682 | * {{Irony}}: He learned so many new skills from Sander and saw him as a role model for his very BenevolentBoss attitude, but he simply can't understand why people see ''him'' as a role model and try to stay on his good side so much despite how they all respect him completely without complaining. |
| 683 | * SelfMadeMan: He worked very hard to help his family with their many debts that he took on increasingly dangerous jobs when he underwent his Esper transformation. |
| 684 | * SociallyAwkwardHero: Combined with his dark looks, no one can really tell that he's socially awkward because they ironically put so much respect on him. |
| 685 | * TallDarkAndHandsome: Mentioned to have attractive good looks, making him rather popular with the media and Union fans. His good looks keep getting referenced in his profile. |
| 686 | * UniversallyBelovedLeader: Everyone at the Esper Union holds a great deal of respect to him that many tend to learn from his own actions and even attempt to become like him, though he's at a loss why many go that far. |
| 687 | * {{Workaholic}}: He has worked so hard his whole life and will never stop working any harder that he has only a few minutes to rest before going back to work. |

| 698 | |
| 699 | The Research Institute Chief of the Union who wants to lead mankind to salvation. He is one of the Esper Seven, said to be the very first people who received their Esper powers. Pritzker is a controller Esper who can increase skill cooldowns on debuffed targets. |
| 700 | |
| 701 | * ''Secrets of Edda'' deals damage to an enemy based on Pritzker's ATK and has a chance to absorb some of their AP. When ascended, if the target is debuffed, the attack will stun the target. |
| 702 | * ''Gjallerhorn'' is a passive ability. When a Pritzker inflicts a debuff, if the target is immobilized, all of their ability cooldowns are increased by one turn. |
| 703 | * ''Wisdom's Name'' attacks all enemies three times, dealing damage based on Pritzker's ATK. Each hit has a chance to inflict Stun. |
| 704 | ---- |
| 705 | * BadassBookworm: Large in shape and very knowlegeable. His powers are derived from the Norse god Mimir, who was reknowned for his knowledge and wisdom. |
| 706 | * ClarkKentOutfit: Considering what he looks like under those big robes (see HeroicBuild below), he most certainly qualifies. The tight, ripped jeans in his “Enlightened Seeker” skin make his build a little more obvious. |
| 707 | * GentleGiant: He is rather large in physique (he is actually 5 cms taller than the likes of ''Freddy'' and is literally ''the'' tallest human Esper, falling 3cms short to non-human Javid), but he is actually very gentle to his students and doesn't like using harsh methods for them to lose their motivation. |
| 708 | * HeroicBuild: His second album art depicts him without his coat and shirt on. The man (who is 65 years old) is ''[[https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/dislyte/images/c/c1/Pritzker_Album_02.png/revision/latest?cb=20221115122547 ripped as hell]]'' [[ClarkKentOutfit under there]]. No wonder he is [[AmazonianBeauty Gabrielle's]] mentor. |
| 709 | --->'''Pritzker (when winning):''' Exercise isn't bad after researching all day. |
| 710 | * ItsAllMyFault: He feels that he failed as a mentor to his protege Hyde when he defected from the Union to pursue his increasingly dangerous experiments, and he knows that there will come a day when he'll have to defeat Hyde. |
| 711 | * LikeASonToMe: He sees his students as if they were his own children and is always willing to help them when they encounter challenges. |
| 712 | * PowerEqualsRarity: Subverted. He’s one of the Esper Seven, but he’s an Epic Esper unlike the other six who are of Legendary rarity. |
| 713 | * {{Workaholic}}: He is always extremely busy in his research, often hurrying off somewhere to decide the fate of the world. |

| 725 | * ''Stone Fists'' deals damage to an enemy based on Nick's ATK, with a chance to inflict ATK Down. |
| 726 | * ''Landslide'' attacks an enemy twice, dealing damage based on Nick's ATK. It also has a chance to increase the target's ability cooldowns. When ascended, upon increasing enemy cooldowns, Nick will decrease the cooldowns of his own abilities. |
| 727 | * ''Skyfall'' attacks all enemies, dealing damage based on Nick's ATK. This attack dispels enemy shields and inflicts Silence. Each enemy silenced increases Nick's AP by a set percentage. |
| 728 | ---- |
| 729 | * BodyHorror: Half of his upper body in encased in rock. However, Nick still sees this as a plus. |
| 730 | * CharacterDevelopment: Nick's impatience and recklessness used to be a lot worse, until an unspecified accident caused by his own Esper powers helped him realize how important it is to take his job seriously. |
| 731 | * CooldownManipulation: ''Landslide'' is able to do this to enemies, and when ascended, Nick himself too. |
| 732 | * DishingOutDirt: His main element is rock. |
| 733 | * ItsAllAboutMe: He's constantly seen flexing and boasting about himself and how great he is, but his career blurbs note that he has the skill and achievements to back it up, and that he taks his job incredibly seriously. |

| 747 | |

| 749 | |
| 750 | * ''Fire Slash'' deals damage to an enemy based on Daylon’s ATK and has a chance to inflict Bleed. |
| 751 | * ''Double Slash'' deals damage to an enemy based on Daylon’s ATK and has a chance to inflict Stun and DEF Down. |
| 752 | * ''Hydro-Inferno Combo'' deals damage to all enemies based on Daylon’s ATK and reduces their AP. When ascended, it also has a chance to dispel all enemy buffs and debuffs. |
| 753 | ---- |
| 754 | * AnimalMotifs: The crocodile, taking cues from the Egyptian god Sobek, who was depicted with a crocodile head. |
| 755 | * BeastMan: A crocodile. Notably the second known beast man (next to Drew) thus far who’s on the side of the Union. |
| 756 | * DarkIsNotEvil: Though his appearance doesn't evoke "good guy" vibes, he's actually a very kind Chief Ops for the Union who loves gardening. |
| 757 | * TheDreaded: Because of his overall menacing appearance, people keep their distance from him. They even misinterpret whenever he comes home all muddied up with a smile on his face (because he was really gardening). |
| 758 | * DualityMotif: Has a bit of this going on; he’s a kind soul with a rough exterior, giving him two sides to his personality, and his swords have a FireWaterJuxtaposition. It traces back to Sobek, a god of both fertility and military prowess. |
| 759 | * DualWielding: He wields two large broadswords of fire and water. The Egyptian god Sobek was associated with military prowess. |
| 760 | * FireWaterJuxtaposition: His swords. One of them controls fire and the other controls water. His third ability is even called ''Hydro-Inferno Combo''. |
| 761 | * GreenThumb: One of his favorite pasttimes is gardening. His summoning animation even has him slashing and hacking a little venus flytrap. This lines up to the Egyptian god Sobek, who was a god known for fertility. |
| 762 | * HellBentForLeather: He even has a belt strapped around his maw. |
| 763 | * KindHeartedCatLover: He takes on Kaylee's cat Chili but has trouble trying to bond with it despite his very best attempts. [[spoiler:And then he mistakenly ends up bringing another similar-looking cat (he thought Chili had run out from his home) who actually likes him, and it even helps him in making Chili warm up to him because Chili became friends with it. Cue Daylon happily adopting the new cat.]] |
| 764 | * MeanCharacterNiceActor: On Kaylee's behest, he takes up the role of a villain (Captain Crocodile) in a stage play. The kids are absolutely terrified of him because of his looks that they run away from him even for a photo shoot, so Kaylee tries to pass his character as a good guy for the next stage play. [[spoiler:However, the kids turn out to have liked him better as a villain because they were ''pretending'' to be scared just to fool around, but they still warm up to him enough to get a lot of photo shoots, much to his relief.]] |
| 765 | * RedEyesTakeWarning: Averted and then played straight. His eyes might be red, but he's very kind. On the other hand, if he ''does'' get angry, his red eyes ''flash.'' |
| 766 | * TheReliableOne: It's his belief that actions speak louder than words, and so he does everything he can to be reliable to his comrades, no matter how small or big the task is. |
| 767 | * SpikesOfVillainy: His pants are filled with them everywhere. However, he's no villain. |
| 768 | * StatusBuffDispel: His main utility is his chance to dispel all of his enemies' buffs with ''Hydro-Inferno Combo.'' Though it can also dispel debuffs from them, you obviously want him to dispel only buffs. |
| 769 | * TrueCompanions: With Kaylee, whom he had helped out in finding her lost Union ID card 2 years ago. Ever since then, she has been close friends with him. |

| 808 | * ''Sky Totem'' deals damage to all enemies based on Mei's ATK and grants her C. RATE Up. All enemies receive Voodoo Doll, and after casting this ability, any enemy with Voodoo Doll is then hit by ''Replacing Graft'', with some of their DEF being ignored. |

But when Luo Yan helped her out without strength, she came to realize that strength really wasn't the answer to everything and so set out to expand her horizons. She stopped being the cocky fighter she used to be once she joined the Union.

When the bullies stopped getting in her way, she then grew up with the belief that strength conquers all. |

| 884 | * TheHeart: After the fall of House Ramses, out of Ollie and Drew, she took on this role. Drew had become borderline despondent and needed someone to wake him up, while Ollie ran away from home and needed someone to secretly watch over him from afar. |
| 885 | * LuckilyMyShieldWillProtectMe: Carries around a large shield she uses to, well, shield her allies in battle. |
| 886 | * OnlyOneName: Averted. She's one of the few non-Chinese Espers to have a last name. Her full name is Laura Ramses, and she uses it as her [=SwiftSpace=] name. |
| 887 | * TheReliableOne: She strives to be someone worthy of House Ramses by indulging herself in many different activities from battle and medical research, setting high goals and being extremely strict with herself since she was a child. It's not uncommon to see people waiting for her counsel every morning. |
| 888 | * RenaissanceWoman: She's TheReliableOne because she is always expanding her horizons from battle to medical expertise. She embodies the Egyptian goddess Neith, who was known as the the goddess of creation, wisdom, weaving, and war. |

| 900 | |
| 901 | * ''Power Impact'' attacks an enemy twice, dealing damage based on Taylor’s ATK. Taylor also gains a Shield, and this attack’s damage increases for every certain percentage of Max HP Taylor has lost. |
| 902 | * ''Hero’s Wrath'' is a Passive Ability. Taylor gains an extra turn when killing an enemy, and enemies killed by him cannot be revived. |
| 903 | * ''Soul Blast'' gives Taylor ATK Up and C. RATE Up, and then he deals damage to an enemy based on his ATK as well as dispelling all their buffs. Taylor himself takes some True Damage when using this ability, but this damage cannot kill him. When ascended, if his target doesn’t die, this ability’s cooldown is shortened by one turn. |
| 904 | ---- |
| 905 | * BadassNormal: Not him per se, but it's thanks to his research in weaponry against Miramon that allowed non-Espers to have a fighting chance. |
| 906 | * TheBigGuy: Alongside Pritzker, he's the tallest human Esper (standing at 200cm). |
| 907 | * GentleGiant: Though he is large and may cause accidents due to his appearance, he's a very gentle person. |

| 909 | * SuperStrength: His main strength, which rather obviously takes cues from the Greek hero Hercules. |

| 926 | * ''Ice Lance'' deals damage to an enemy based on Odette's ATK, and has a chance to freeze them. |
| 927 | * ''Ice Barrier'' grants Cold Armor to all allies. Cold Armor's strength is based on Odette's Max HP. |
| 928 | * ''Bitter Cold World'' deals damage to an enemy based on Odette's ATK. This move freezes both the target and Odette, which the target cannot resist, and Odette gains Immunity, Recovery, and Cold Armor. When ascended, if Odette fails to freeze the target, she will do bonus damage based on her Max HP. |
| 929 | ---- |
| 930 | * BigEater: Sadly for her, she couldn't even beat up a young girl in a pizza eating contest by being one plate behind. |
| 931 | * DefrostingIceQueen: She used to loathe the idea of teaming up with any of her colleagues (other than Laura), though she let go of her hatred when she captured the criminals who killed her parents and when Laura had rescued her when Odette was trapped in the enemy's camp. |
| 932 | * HumiliationConga: She planned a trip to the Raine Tundra for Laura so she could unwind. Unfortunately, all of Odette's scheduled activities got botched one way or another. Thankfully, Laura still enjoyed seeing the snowfields (as Laura hailed from a desert region) and still got to enjoy the stars at night. |
| 933 | * AnIcePerson: Her powers are ice-based, and she can actually be a nice person when spoken to. |

| 960 | * TheDreaded: Her open-mindness and directness earn the favor of both friends and foes alike, except, the difference is her allies actually survive interactions with her. |
| 961 | * FragileSpeedster: Inverted. Gabrielle is one of the fastest Espers in the game, but she is quite tanky. Her basic attack encourages the use of high speed to deal more damage, even. |
| 962 | * MakingASplash: Being the Esper of Njord, a sea god, her attacks are water based. |

| 974 | |
| 975 | * ''Guardian Vine'' deals damage to an enemy based on Sienna's ATK. It grants some extra AP to Sienna and a random ally. |
| 976 | * ''Earth's Blessing'' grants ATK Up and SPD Up to the entire party. |
| 977 | * ''Wrath of the World'' deals damage to all enemies based on Sienna's ATK and erases their AP. Upon successful erasure, the chance to inflict Stun increases and the ability's cooldown shortens. When ascended, Sienna gets an extra turn upon using this ability. |
| 978 | ---- |
| 979 | * ActionInitiative: Her ''Wrath of the World,'' when ascended, lets her gain an extra turn right away. |
| 980 | * AnimalLover: Her fourth career blurb notes that she loves animals, and even has two dogs and a cat of her own. |
| 981 | * BirdsOfAFeather: She feels she's this with Gaius, as both of them use their powers for rudimentary problems like powering up a greehouse's light while she used her to restore the environment. |
| 982 | * GardenGarment: The sheer parts of her outfit are adorned with flowers, and her collar looks like it was woven from flower stems. |
| 983 | * GoodIsNotNice: Part of the reason she's so hard to work with is because she wants to teach her students that their enemies won't give them any chances during battles. |
| 984 | * GreenThumb: Her attacks are largely plant based. |
| 985 | * MotherNature: She is the Esper of Gaia, Greek goddess of the Earth, so she's the closest thing the game has. Bonus points for (allegedly) being the oldest playable female Esper. |
| 986 | * NeedleworkIsForOldPeople: She's apparently 60, [[OlderThanTheyLook believe it or not,]] and knitting is one of her hobbies. Her fourth career blurb reveals that she once shared the hobby with her late lover. |
| 987 | * OlderThanTheyLook: She looks incredibly youthful for a 60-year-old. However, it should be noted that her profile mysteriously changed from her being 19 to 60 without warning, so it's unclear which should be her real age. |
| 988 | * RockMonster: ''Wrath of the World'' sees her summon a giant one to crush the enemy party. |
| 989 | * SternTeacher: Sienna is known for her harsh criticism and strict standards as a professor, and the game notes that it's not uncommon to see a student running out of her office in tears. She's aware of how difficult she is to work with, but refuses to lower her standards. As it turns out, she's not purposely trying to belittle anyone, but just making sure that her students are just as analytical and ready for anything as she is... which in turn makes her come off as incredibly critical. |

| 1004 | * ''Warm Harmonics'' is a passive ability. When Ahmed actively casts a healing ability, he passively heals the ally with the lowest HP. If the ally suffers from a max HP penalty, Ahmed will restore the target's max HP threshold by a set percentage and grant a stack of Supporting Song. If the target's HP is below a certain percentage, Ahmed will grant another stack of Supporting Song. When ascended, if Ahmed's target is inflicted with Diseased, he'll clear that from them too. |
| 1005 | * ''World Stage'' reduces the ability cooldowns of the whole party and heals whichever allies have the lowest HP a certain number of times, restoring their HP equal to a portion of Ahmed's max HP. The cooldown of this ability will not be affected by Unit Abilities. |

| 1037 | * AlwaysIdenticalTwins: With his brother Tang Yun before they became Espers, which made it much easier to tell them apart. Even after that they still share some identical attributes, such as similar weapons, hairstyles, and a love of pudding. |
| 1038 | * AnimalMotifs: The monkey, or more accurately, the monkey god Sun Wukong. His younger brother Tang Yun, meanwhile, represents the fake Sun Wukong Six-Eared Macaque. |
| 1039 | * ArtworkAndGameGraphicsSegregation: Either his skin is albino-toned as shown in his picture here, or he's got tanned skin in his in-game model. |

| 1041 | * BrattyHalfPint: When he was younger, his sense of justice was superficial at worst, until he had a major breakthrough working for the Union. |
| 1042 | * CainAndAbel: The Abel to Tang Yun's Cain. |

| 1056 | * MonkeyKingLite: Kind of a given, being the Esper of Sun Wukong. |
| 1057 | * MyGreatestFailure: His pursuit of becoming a hero made Tang Xuan doubt his zealousness when he had to abandon the one person that needed him most, most likely his brother becoming an EvilTwin. |
| 1058 | * PolarOppositeTwins: His sunny and bright disposition clashes very hard against Tang Yun's dark and morbid disposition. |
| 1059 | * ThePollyanna: His bright outlook in life is said to be infectious to his colleagues. |
| 1060 | * RecurringExtra: He's been the most featured Esper who has focus (Sea of Sorrow, Sands of Guilt) or some (Truth Unveiled) of it during events than the rest of the heroic Espers. The other closest Esper who falls slightly behind by one off-event is Tevor. |

The party gains ATK up, while Ashley herself gains DEF Up and a shield, as well as five stacks of Rainbow Bridge. Rainbow Bridge triggers when either an ally or an enemy deals a Critical Hit. If it's an ally, they'll deal extra True Damage based on the target's Max HP and reduce their AP. If it's an enemy, then the whole team gets an AP increase. A stack of the buff is consumed whenever it is triggered; there can be up to seven stacks at a time. When ascended, Ashley will gain three stacks of Rainbow Bridge at the start of a battle. |

| 1084 | * ChronicHeroSyndrome: Besides how she's always on high alert, she can't even feel relaxed when people are troubled by personal issues that don't involve protection from the Miramon that she tries to fix them. |
| 1085 | * ColorMotif: White, in her hair, outfit, and even her eyelashes. It ties back to the Norse God Heimdall, who was called “the whitest-skinned of the gods”. |
| 1086 | ** RainbowMotif: In contrast to her all white appearance, her sword emits rainbows when she swings it, and her unique buff is called Rainbow Bridge. Like her association with white, it’s another reference to Heimdall, who guarded Bifrost AKA the rainbow bridge at the entrance to Asgard. |
| 1087 | * ADayInTheLimelight: Starts in the Fireworks Celebration sidequest, where she stays on high alert when an unknown bomber threatens to kill people during the celebration. |

Ashley wound up swinging her sword at them to get them back. |

| 1093 | * PerformanceAnxiety: After enlisting Meredith’s help to turn a poem she wrote about dogs and cats into a song for a charity event, she gets so nervous on stage that she starts stuttering and fumbling the words before abruptly exiting. Amazingly, the animals in the crowd loved the poem, and she wound up going viral online as the “Kitty Poet”. |
| 1094 | * PowerGivesYouWings: She has six massive ones, which are a regular sight to the citizens on the streets. |
| 1095 | * SamaritanSyndrome: While she understands that she can’t save everyone, she still feels guilty for the times that she can’t, and wound up falling into depression at one point because of it. |
| 1096 | * {{Stripperific}}: Her outfit is made up of some pieces of long white fabric, black and silver armor around her arms, waist, and neck, and a few belts and harnesses for good measure. It doesn’t leave much to the imagination, and it helps that she’s rather well-endowed. |
| 1097 | * SuperpowerDisability: Her enhanced hearing is this to her. She's unable to get proper sleep because she can listen to people talking from afar if she can't use her noise-cancelling headphones, and even a meager set of small fireworks blowing up nearby can stun her into place. |
| 1098 | * SuperHearing: Her Esper powers gave her this, in reference to Heimdall who had the same abilities. While it helps her with her job, it also makes her very sensitive to noise. |

| 1106 | '''Attribute:''' Wind\ |
| 1107 | '''Role:''' Fighter\ |
| 1108 | |
| 1109 | An expert martial artist, member of the Li family's security team, and the family's most famous warrior. It's been said that he's worth a thousand men. He's Li Ling's master, who taught him humility and not to misuse his Esper powers since Li Ling was a young kid. He is a fighter Esper with access to multi-stage attacks and pursuit attacks. |
| 1110 | |
| 1111 | * ''Roaring Thrust'' hits an enemy multiple times based on Yun Chuan’s ATK, and has a chance to inflict Miss Rate Up. |
| 1112 | * ''Whistling Stance'' is a passive ability. Upon landing a Critical Hit, Yun Chuan inflicts Third Eye Seal upon his target, which increases their Miss Rate. When Yun Chuan hits an enemy with Third Eye Seal, his canine companion Screamer will also attack the target. Screamer deals damage based on Yun Chuan’s ATK, ignores enemy DEF, and inflicts Sear. When ascended, Screamer will also fetch the target’s buffs and give them to Yun Chuan. Screamer’s attacks can only be triggered a certain number of times. |
| 1113 | * ''Guardian Lord'' attacks all enemies multiple times, dealing damage based on Yun Chuan’s ATK and inflicting SPD Down. The whole party gains SPD Up, while Yun Chuan gains Immunity. |
| 1114 | ---- |
| 1115 | * BadassNormal: When Li Ling was a kid with Esper powers, Li Ling used his powers to beat up even adults to submission. Yun Chuan wasn't even an Esper and yet he completely kicked Li Ling's ass, which made Li Ling want to become his pupil. |
| 1116 | ** EmpoweredBadassNormal: He later became an Esper while at Nether Gaol, making him ever stronger. |
| 1117 | * BirdsOfAFeather: He and Li Xiao were orphans on the streets being abused by higher powers. When Li Xiao first met him, he couldn't help seeing himself in Yun Chuan, and after Li Xiao recognized Yun Chuan's righteous heart, the two became best friends. |
| 1118 | * BlessedWithSuck: His third eye either scares children or makes it hard for him to try blocking all his eyes from staring into a pretty lady. |
| 1119 | * BrutalHonesty: The "brutal" part is for ''himself.'' When a lady smitten by him tries to get him to dance, his blunt comments before and after the dance are about how said lady was going too far with her appearance that he was annoying her, until her elegant dress made him very uncomfortable that he blurted out loudly that she looked pretty wearing it. |
| 1120 | * CanineCompanion: He's accompanied by his loyal dog Screamer, who assists him in battle. His dog represents Yang Jian's faithful "Howling Celestial Dog," who assisted Yang Jian in subduing evil spirits. In a similar fashion, Screamer functions as an AssistCharacter to Yun Chuan, attacking as a part of his passive ability. |
| 1121 | * ChronicHeroSyndrome: When he was younger, his sense of justice was rough around the edges and often caused him problems until his father put him in the straight and narrow. By the time Yun Chuan had become better at applying justice, he met Li Ling and beat him soundly, convincing Li Ling to become his master. |
| 1122 | * ADayInTheLimelight: Stars in the Truth Unveiled event, involving his whereabouts within Nether Gaol. |
| 1123 | * TheDreaded: No one wants to be around this guy when he's ''bored''. This always leads to him into doing intensive workout that he will force anyone incapable of following his lead to do it with him. The phrase "[[OhCrap Yun Chuan is bored]]" has become a warning signal in the Union. |
| 1124 | * DreadfulMusician: He loves playing a flute that his dog Screamer loves listening to. The problem is, Li Ling confused the tune of the flute for the Union's alarm several times, implying this trope. |
| 1125 | * FakingTheDead: Li Ling began to assume that this happened once he saw an online newspaper about Yun Chuan being around. [[spoiler:He was right. Yun Chuan never died, but rather, a false death report was made while he was actually WalkingTheEarth to hide.]] |
| 1126 | * GenerationXerox: Out of all his well-versed and knowlegeable family members, he was the only one to inherit his father's strength. |
| 1127 | * HeroesLoveDogs: Very doting on his man-eating dog Screamer. |
| 1128 | * MrFanservice: He's ripped, his favorite hobby is working out (which he does push-ups with one hand even when his wolf Screamer stands on him as his summoning animation), and he's a WalkingShirtlessScene. ''Yup.'' |
| 1129 | * OneManArmy: His status as a BadassNormal cemented this. Becoming an Esper upped ''that'' [[EmpoweredBadassNormal several notches.]] |
| 1130 | * TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: [[spoiler:Instead of giving Li Xiao death, Yun Chuan punches him good for harassing Li Ling, Tang Xuan, and himself, saying that killing Li Xiao is just an easy way for him to attone. Rather, he lets Li Xiao live so that he can properly atone and become a better person while living with his guilt.]] |
| 1131 | * TheScapegoat: He was falsely accused of a crime he didn't commit and was sentenced into Nether Gaol. What's more, he even had a [[FakingTheDead faked death]] just to arrest him, and all information of him being alive was kept under wraps. [[spoiler:Though it turns out he took the fall for Li Xiao, who was the one who triggered the false alarm out of pure stress for being just a pawn to the Radiant Guards, because he was worried for him and knew deep down that only Li Xiao was the right person to look after Tangton.]] |
| 1132 | * ThirdEye: He has a glowing red one on his forehead, representing Yang Jian’s truth-seeing third eye. |
| 1133 | * TrainingFromHell: His workout routines are this to people who can't keep up with him, and they can be rather unorthodox. For example, his idea of working out is literally wrestling ''jagalions'' (and even ''hanging out'' with them until another one would start another fight) after setting a very elaborate plan that lasted for days just to get started on it (the guy who had asked him to be his trainer secretly excused himself from how horrific the training was). |
| 1134 | * TrueCompanions: Was one with Li Xiao until Yun Chuan mysteriously disappeared. [[spoiler:Even after Li Xiao is defeated and asked Yun Chuan to kill him for all the crap he did, Yun Chuan just beats him to a bloody pulp but tells him that he still has a chance to repent with his guilt to become a better person. Yun Chuan had also turned down the chance to escape from Nether Gaol when Li Xiao - before his FaceHeelTurn - had made a secret escape route, because Yun Chuan truly believes that only Li Xiao had what it takes to change Tangton for the better. He didn't even care that Li Xiao had betrayed him anyway, as long as it meant Tangton would be in his hands.]] |
| 1135 | * WalkingTheEarth: [[spoiler:His assumed death was fabricated by Li Xiao, who believed him to be dead until he also saw the online article depicting Yun Chuan alive and well. As it turns out, Yun Chuan's BolivianArmyEnding led to him traveling the world to hide.]] |

| 1143 | '''Attribute:''' Wind\ |
| 1144 | '''Role:''' Controller\ |
| 1145 | |
| 1146 | A member of the Esper Union's Scavengers. She's a meek woman with self-esteem issues who shares her body with Aminah, who enjoys the thrill of killing enemies with her own Esper power to keep Farrah safe in her own way. She is a Controller Esper who can act fast while slowing and even freezing her enemies. |
| 1147 | |
| 1148 | * Farrah has a unique buff called Synergy. This buff makes her immune to getting her AP lowered and reduces the damage she takes. |
| 1149 | * ''Tide Slash'' grants Farrah ATK Up, and then she attacks an enemy twice, dealing damage based on her ATK. When ascended, Farrah deals splash damage if the target is frozen. |
| 1150 | * ''Coldwater Splash'' freezes all enemies. Then Farrah attacks them all twice, dealing damage based on her ATK. Each hit inflicts the enemies with DEF Down. Farrah is guaranteed to land critical hits on frozen enemies. |
| 1151 | * ''Stormy Waves'' dispells two buffs from all enemies, freezes them, and gives them SPD Down. Then Farrah attacks them all twice, dealing damage based on her ATK. Farrah then gains Synergy. Farrah also gains Synergy at the start of a fight. If Farrah has Synergy at the start of her turn, she will dispell all control effects from herself. While Synergy is active, Farrah gains AP when being attacked. |
| 1152 | ---- |
| 1153 | * AnIcePerson: A large part of Farrah's kit is inflicting Freeze on her targets. |
| 1154 | * AwfulTruth: [[spoiler:Her mother Daphne was the one who sent her to the "orphanage" which was really a research facility where many gruesome experiments were done on Farrah to add a second Esper power. Though Daphne didn't know the orphanage was fake, she had a feeling something was off but went ahead with sending Farrah there, which was a grave mistake that Farrah subconciously buried in her mind until she remembers and can't bear to see her mother ever again.]] |
| 1155 | * AxCrazy: Aminah is a relentless crazy entity who either slaughters everyone she sees...[[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking or pranks them.]] |
| 1156 | * BodyHorror: Her right hand became an elongated limb that looks like algae. That's without mentioning that half of her body is being occupied by Aminah, their upper bodies splitting apart from the top. Even Aminah herself is deformed, with special mention going to her long neck. |
| 1157 | * BrainsAndBrawn: Farrah is the one who handles reconnaissance while Aminah handles battles in her stead. |
| 1158 | * BreakingOldTrends: She's got ''two'' god powers instead of the usual one for an Esper, thanks to Aminah having another Esper power. |
| 1159 | * BrokenBird: Hoo ''boy'', just see her DarkAndTroubledPast to understand why she's a broken mess of emotions. |
| 1160 | * DarkAndTroubledPast: [[spoiler:When she was a little child, she and her mother were left with almost nothing when the Cube Miracle rose that led to the destruction of their home and killed Farrah's father, forcing them to live in a refugee camp with scarce resources for food. One night, a mysterious business man came to Daphne and offered to take Farrah to an orphanage to look after her, not knowing that the "orphanage" was really a research facility where scientists performed many gruesome experiments on her to grant her a second Esper power on top of the one she already had. For years, the unexpectedly end result was Aminah, who plotted to escape the facility with Farrah and did so during the Hazlitt incident, slaughtering everyone on their way out. During their escape, they were found by Esper Union officials and mistook them for pursuers, nearly killing them all until they were subdued and recruited under Luo Yan's Scavengers.]] |
| 1161 | * ADayInTheLimelight: She stars in the ''Return, Dreaming'' story event, which involves Farrah being comatose due to some painful memories of her past. |
| 1162 | * TheDividual: Syndividual type. She can't use her Esper powers unless she hands over duties to Aminah, who needs Farrah to stay asleep so she can act on her own. |
| 1163 | * TheDreaded: Not Farrah, but her colleagues just don't want to deal with Aminah, who's violently overprotective of Farrah. |
| 1164 | * TheEeyore: She's perpetually depressed and always contemplates just disappearing, thinking that it's what people want her to do. |
| 1165 | * EscapedFromTheLab: [[spoiler:With Aminah's help, she escaped the facility she was being held at when Hazlitt was being ravaged by the Miracle.]] |
| 1166 | * GameplayAndStoryIntegration: Farrah's animations show that she and Aminah fight in tandem, rather than one of them fighting while the other sleeps. Because of this, all of her abilities hit enemies twice. |
| 1167 | * GoneHorriblyWrong: Aminah's existence. [[spoiler:The scientists who attempted to give Farrah a second Esper power somehow ended up creating Aminah by sheer accident, much to their horror. She then proceeded to hatch an escape plan with Farrah, leading to the slaughter of all the scientists.]] |
| 1168 | * InstitutionalApparel: Farrah's outfit heavily resembles a straitjacket. |
| 1169 | * MakingASplash: Her powers are derived from both Abzu and Tiamat, who were known as a godly couple of Mesopotamian mythology that could control the sea and groundwater. Aminah in particular looks like she's made of water entirely. |
| 1170 | * MultipleEndings: In ''Return, Dreaming'': |
| 1171 | ** BittersweetEnding: [[spoiler:Farrah makes amends with her mother Daphne, who bakes Farrah a cake to celebrate her birthday with the rest of the Esper Union. However, that night, Farrah dreams of the event when her mother handed her over to a representative of the facility she was sent to where she suffered many gruesome experiments for years.]] |
| 1172 | ** DownerEnding: [[spoiler:Once Tevor finds out why Daphne acted strange when she was told about the orphanage, the AwfulTruth about Farrah ending at the "orphanage" is revealed within her memories. Ashamed that her mother has no right to come back to her life for how much Farrah suffered for her decisions, Farrah decides to never see her mother again, denying her a second chance to amend things with her. At the ''very'' least, Farrah realizes that she can always depend on Aminah to look after her.]] [[spoiler:''This'' is the ending that sticks.]] |
| 1173 | * PromotedToPlayable: She appeared in ''Sea and Song'' before properly taking center stage and becoming playable in ''Return, Dreaming''. |
| 1174 | * RedHerring: As other Espers have manifested entities that are also their Esper powers, Aminah stands out the most because she ''really'' is ''a separate living being with her own Esper power'' tied to Farrah's, mentally ''and'' [[BodyHorror physically]]. |
| 1175 | * ShrinkingViolet: Suffers from self-esteem issues that hinder her from talking to anyone, though a little praise helps her perk up. |
| 1176 | * SplitPersonality: Has another personality sharing her body named Aminah who is [[{{Understatement}} less shy]] than Farrah is. |
| 1177 | * TokenEvilTeammate: Perhaps the only example from the entire Esper Union roster. Though Farrah has zero drive to be evil, Aminah is a malevolent AxCrazy side whose least evil aspect is pranking others. It wouldn't be weird to see both of them as part of the Shadow Decree. |
| 1178 | * ToughLove: Aminah is not a fan of being nice towards Farrah that she likes being TheBully to her because that actually gets Farrah to do something rather than being nice and caring to her. |
| 1179 | * YourDaysAreNumbered: According to her, the algae in her body is slowly killing her, though there isn't concrete proof about it. Either way, it makes her write a will ''every day'' [[spoiler:because Aminah keeps tearing every will Farrah writes when she takes control]]. |

| 1187 | '''Rarity''': Legendary\ |
| 1188 | '''Role''': Fighter |
| 1189 | |
| 1190 | A guitar-loving ghost boy who has been wandering an amusement park for the last decade, waiting for someone to hear him play. He is a Fighter Esper who benefits from enemy basic attacks and Mavis' assistance. |
| 1191 | |
| 1192 | * Archibald has both a buff and a debuff up his sleeves. They are... |
| 1193 | ** Carnival Heat, a buff effective in subsequent rounds of combat. If Mavis is in the party, all allies receive an AP boost every time he hits a certain amount of stacks. This ability stacks up to 50 times. |
| 1194 | ** One Swing, his debuff. The carrier's basic ability damage is increased, but they're locked into only using their basic ability. At the end of the carrier's turn, all enemies receive True Damage. |
| 1195 | * ''Silent Spirit'' attacks an enemy twice, dealing damage based on Archibald's ATK. Each hit has a chance of inflicting Silence. |
| 1196 | * ''Enchanting Drop'' attacks all enemies three times, dealing damage based on a mix of Archibald's ATK and the target's Max HP; the damage based on the latter stat cannot exceed a certain amount of Archibald's ATK. Each hit has a chance to inflict Buff Blocker. |
| 1197 | * ''Carnival Sonata'' attacks all enemies three times, dealing damage based on a mix of Archibald's ATK and the target's Max HP; the damage based on the latter stat cannot exceed a certain amount of Archibald's ATK. Each hit has a chance to dispell one buff from each enemy, and each non-boss target receives One Swing. Buffs on enemies with One Swing can't last more than one turn. Archibald gains a stack of Carnival Heat every time an enemy casts a basic ability, with each stack increasing his damage. If Mavis is in the party and takes ability damage, Archibald shares a portion of it. When ascended, if Mavis is in the party, Archibald's C. RATE increases and he gains AP when landing a critical hit once per turn. |
| 1198 | ---- |
| 1199 | * BackFromTheDead: [[spoiler:After Mavis helps him with his wish to have a real audience (Mavis, David, and Mona) rather than Miramon that couldn't see him, rather than going to the afterlife, he miraculously is reborn as an Esper.]] |
| 1200 | * BadassSpaniard: Outfitted with Mexican motifs and Esper powers from the ''god of death'' while he's just still a kid (at least in appearance), he qualifies. |
| 1201 | * {{Calacas}}: His entire motif and Esper powers are derived from the Aztec god Mictalntecutli; known as the god of death and rulet of Mitlan, and the husband of Mictecacihuatl. His skull-like appearance references Dias de Los Muertos (Day of the Dead) in Mexican culture. |
| 1202 | * DarkIsNotEvil: Though he borrows his powers from the dead, he'd rather use them to have fun with lonely children. |
| 1203 | * ADayInTheLimelight: He debuts in the ''Bemusement Park'' story event. |
| 1204 | * DramaticIrony: The same day he was about to perform for the first time was also the day he couldn't do it when he got trampled to death by panicked people fleeing a collapsing stage. |
| 1205 | * EarnYourHappyEnding: [[spoiler:Not only does he get to have a real audience before passing on, but he is miraculously revived through ''becoming an Esper.'']] |
| 1206 | * ForgottenFirstMeeting: He had already met Mavis since 8 years ago when she became lost at the amusement park near Hazlitt. By then, he was already a ghost and Mavis could see him since she was starting to develop her powers as an Esper before her transformation. |
| 1207 | * FriendlyGhost: Though he died in an accident, he became a ghost looking out for other people. |
| 1208 | * AndIMustScream: He's been secluded to the fallen amusement park for 10 years, with his music the only thing that other people (and mostly Miramon) could hear from him. [[spoiler:Part of him was so desperate of his solitude that he didn't mind thinking that the Miramon he lured to him was an audience wanting to listen to his music, since they couldn't see him to attack him.]] |
| 1209 | * LastRequest: As a ghost, he always wanted to have a real audience, which is something Mavis does for him (since it's her personal job to do it for ghosts). [[spoiler:This becomes entirely defied when doing his last request makes him be reborn as a living Esper.]] |
| 1210 | * OlderThanTheyLook: He was just 9 before he died, remaining as a spirit for 10 years, making him technically 19 years old. [[spoiler:His miraculous revival still has him in his 9-year old body, and if he's anything like Mavis, he can't age visibly past 9 either.]] |
| 1211 | * PosthumousCharacter: He's been dead over 10 years caused by being trampled to death when people ran away in a panic when the stage he was set to play his first music performance collapsed, though he's remained as a [[FriendlyGhost ghost boy]] ever since [[spoiler:until Mavis fulfilled his wish of having an audience and helped him be reborn as an Esper back in the world of the living]]. |
| 1212 | * ShoutOut: Look closely. He's standing on a ''VideoGame/DanceDanceRevolution'' dancing floor. Even his abilities take heavy cues from dance arrows. |

| 1223 | A talented Med-Team Ops Chief French horn player and self-proclaimed historian who relies on music to record the people, places, and events she encounters. She is a support Esper who can use her unique ''Sweet Harvest'' buff to reduce incoming damage to all allies. |
| 1224 | |
| 1225 | * ''Light Call'' attacks an enemy three times, each hit dealing damage based on Sally’s ATK. It also has a chance to grant Sally Immunity. |
| 1226 | * ''Universal'' dispels all debuffs from the party and evens out each ally’s HP, granting everyone ATK Up and Recovery in the process. |
| 1227 | * ''Ode to Joy'' has Sally enter the Sweet Harvest state. In this state, Sally can’t act or attack, but she can dispel a debuff from an ally and heal them at the start of their turn. When ascended, this ability also has all allies take less damage while the Sweet Harvest state is active. |
| 1228 | |
| 1229 | ---- |
| 1230 | * AntiDebuff: ''Universal'' dispels debuffs from the whole party while evening out their HP, while ''Ode to Joy's'' Sweet Harvest buff dispels a debuff from every ally at the start of their turn as well as healing them, with the trade off being that Sally herself can't do anything for two turns. |
| 1231 | * BigBeautifulWoman: She’s visibly one of the chubbier female Espers, and she’s also a very gorgeous one too. |
| 1232 | * BirdsOfAFeather: She share many similarities with fellow Esper Union member Eira, who [[BondingOverMissingParents also lost her parents]] and is musically adept. |
| 1233 | * DarkAndTroubledPast: The city where she lived was devastated, and she lost her whole family and the orphanage where she lived. Despite how this was very devastating to her, it taught her to record everything in songs to be able to move forward in life rather than fall to despair. |
| 1234 | * DishingOutDirt: Thematically, her main element, as only one of her skills alludes to it (''Sweet Harvest''), which ties her powers to the Norse goddess Sif known for her association with earth. |
| 1235 | * DoomedHometown: Her hometown Geran was destroyed, alongside her family and her life at the orphanage. |
| 1236 | * LongHairIsFeminine: She has three very long braids that reach well past her back. In fact, it's this what makes her resemble the Norse goddess Sif, who was also known for her long golden hair. |
| 1237 | * MagicMusic: Plays her french horn to heal and buff the party. |
| 1238 | * MightyGlacier: Her main role in battle is to reduce all damage taken by -25% for all allies while also healing them on their turns with ''Sweet Harvest''. She also has high defensive stats herself. |
| 1239 | * TrueCompanions: With Eira, due to their many similarities. |

| 1249 | |
| 1250 | A boisterous warrior who slowly came to be a dependable commander in the Union. He is a defender Esper who can increase his defense to deal more damage. |
| 1251 | |
| 1252 | * ''Upward Lightning'' deals damage to an enemy equal to a percentage of Donar’s ATK plus a larger percentage of his DEF. Also has a chance of inflicting ATK Down. |
| 1253 | * ''Thundercrack'' is a passive ability. At the end of his turn, Donar will enter Conductor Mode, and then attack all enemies dealing damage based on his DEF at the start of his next turn. If Donar is attacked while in Conductor Mode, he gains a stack of Thunder Blessing, which increases his DEF whenever he’s hit. This ability's cooldown cannot be manipulated. Being immobilized removes Conductor Mode. When ascended, Donar will temporarily absorb the DEF of his teammates before attacking in Conductor Mode. |
| 1254 | * ''Explosions in the Sky'' deals damage to an enemy equal to a percentage of Donar’s ATK plus a larger percentage of his DEF. It also grants Donar DEF UP and Immunity. |
| 1255 | ---- |
| 1256 | * TheAlcoholic: Ironically, though he keeps a strict fitness diet, he makes a pass for alcohol, as "a warrior is only as strong as the liquor he or she drinks, and only the strongest liquor is suitable for the bravest of souls." |
| 1257 | * ArrogantKungFuGuy: Formerly one before Raven molded him up to be better among his colleagues. |
| 1258 | * BirdsOfAFeather: With Gabrielle, who's another gym junkie who underwent a similar CharacterDevelopment like Donar did. Predictably, they're both gym friends. Can cross into DistaffCounterpart territory. They even have an extremely similar menu animation (jumping, slamming their fist down, and retrieving their weapon). |
| 1259 | * CharacterDevelopment: He used to be so brash and reckless during his earliest days working for the Union, until Raven went through hell trying to mold him up into a better person that he managed to become a dependable commander. |
| 1260 | * ClothingDamage: His pants are totally shredded, showing off his muscular (and glowing) legs. |
| 1261 | * GentleGiant: He is large and very bombastic, but he is a nice person at heart. |
| 1262 | * GlowingEyes: His eyes always seem to glow due to his Esper powers. |
| 1263 | * ManlyFacialHair: His big beard matches his muscular physique and boisterous personality. |
| 1264 | * MeaningfulName: “Donar” is an Old High German name for the Germanic equivalent of Thor, and is rather on the nose for the Esper of the same god. |
| 1265 | * MightyGlacier: His battle style revolves around enduring damage as many times as he can to stack up ''Thunder Blessing'' before releasing it all out through ''Explosions in the Sky'' and ''Conductor'' (the latter which empties out the blessings). |
| 1266 | * ShockAndAwe: His main element. |
| 1267 | * ThunderHammer: Wields one of these into battle, which was the Norse god Thor's preferred weapon. |
| 1268 | * YellowLightningBlueLightning: Of the Very Blue variety. His lightning attacks are all light blue, as well as his hands and legs. |

| 1284 | * ''Devouring Void'' takes the AP of the non-boss enemy with the highest AP% and the AP of the ally with the lowest AP% and swaps them if the former is higher than the latter. This is not regarded as an AP boost or reduction. Then, she attacks all enemies, dealing damage based on her ATK and dispelling one buff from each enemy, then absorbs some AP from all of them to share equally among her allies. |
| 1285 | ---- |
| 1286 | * BunnyEarsLawyer: As crazy as she may seem, she's a star Esper student at the Union Academy. Unfortunately, because of her eccentric behavior, Academy officials don't want her around public events and keep her presence hidden from advertisements or promotional videos. |
| 1287 | * CharacterDevelopment: Defied. After publishing two fantasy novellas, the second one seemed to be easier to understand to others because there were hints of reality slipping through her distorted eternal daydream, but she hopes to stay in her fantasy forever despite thinking secretly to return to the real world. |
| 1288 | * CloudCuckooLander: Her honest to god belief that she's the center of the universe, which leaves so many people puzzled and weirded out. |
| 1289 | * CosmicEntity: Deluded herself into being one, though her powers are based on the Egyptian goddess Nut, who was known as the goddess of the sky and heavens. |
| 1290 | * {{Escapism}}: Watching her parents die one by one left an extreme emotional scar in her that triggered her eventual withdrawal from reality and made herself believe a made-up fantasy that her dead parents were intergalactic warriors who had passed their final test and had been escorted away to the center of the universe by the "Emmissaries of the Miracles." From this moment on, Tiye became extremely delusional to reality. |
| 1291 | * FragileSpeedster: Though frail, her captain ability increases her allies' SPD by 25%. Needless to say, [[OneStatToRuleThemAll don't be so surprised when higher ranked players in Point War happen to have her.]] |
| 1292 | * HeroicBSOD: During her childhood, she witnessed her father being crushed to death by Miramon, and then she saw her mother die in front of her at the hospital. This triggered her SanitySlippage into what she is today. |
| 1293 | * MakingASpectacleOfYourself: She wears glasses with two different star designs on them. If you actually look closely through them, they seem to be useless for sight aid...because she always has her eyes closed. |
| 1294 | * NamedAfterSomebodyFamous: Tiye comes from Queen Tiye, the wife of Egyptian Pharaoh Amenhotep III. |
| 1295 | * TrueCompanions: With Kaylee, the only person who can connect with her and acts as her interpreter to perplexed people listening to Tiye's strange cosmic ramblings. |

| 1304 | |
| 1305 | One of the founders of the Esper Union and member of the Original Esper Seven who were the first people to gain Esper powers in Grandis, a living legend devoted to stopping the threats the Miracles bring. He's a unique Esper who can switch between his normal mode and a God King mode, which changes how his abilities work. |
| 1306 | |
| 1307 | * ''Thunderstrike'' deals damage to an enemy based on Gaius' ATK. It also extends the duration of all the target's debuffs, as well as stunning them. In God King mode, it deals damage to all enemies based on his ATK, and has a chance of stealing enemy buffs. |
| 1308 | * ''Thunder Judgement'' summons lightning to attack multiple random enemies, dealing damage based on Gaius' ATK. It priortizes hitting different targets, and deals decreasing damage if it hits the same target more than once. In God King Mode, it does the same thing with more damage. When ascended, the ability inflicts Buff Blocker in both forms, while dispelling all enemy buffs in his normal mode. |
| 1309 | * ''Thunderstorm'' switches his current mode to his other one and gives him an extra turn. In normal mode, he gains a shield based on his ATK, extends the duration of his buffs, and resets the cooldown on Thunder Judgement. In God King Mode, he gives all his allies a shield based on his ATK, extends the duration of his own buffs, resets Thunder Judgement's cooldown and reduces Thunderstorm's cooldown too. |
| 1310 | * He also has an unnamed passive ability. In God King Mode, he gains an increased C. RATE and deals bonus damage based on his target's Max HP. In normal mode, he instead gains increased ACC and can inflict Sear upon attacking. |
| 1311 | ---- |
| 1312 | * ActionGenreHeroGuy: Embodies a majority of the requirements for it. |
| 1313 | * ADayInTheLimelight: Stars in the Static Shock event. |
| 1314 | * AsskickingLeadsToLeadership: Tremendously powerful, there is a reason he is a leader within the Union he helped to found. Other lesser heroic Espers see him as an idol. |
| 1315 | * AwesomeByAnalysis: He's able to accurately think and arrive at a conclusion of what exactly happened at a given location he's investigating in a few minutes. |
| 1316 | * BecomingTheMask: He discarded his amicable persona because the Gaius with the medals is the one people want to see when they need someone to save them. |
| 1317 | * BirdsOfAFeather: With Sienna, who used her powers of nature to restore the environment just as how Gaius used his powers to restore electricity at her greenhouse. |
| 1318 | * ChestOfMedals: He has six large medals attached to his belt, all of which he's earned for his feats as an Esper and as part of the Esper Union. When his coat comes off in God King Mode, even more medals are visible hanging from his belt. His profile lists them as his favourite things. On a more serious note, he explains to Pritzker that the medals help him look like a reliable Esper to the people who need his help, as the medals inspire hope for them, rather than the "amicable" Gaius without the medals. |
| 1319 | * CursedWithAwesome: Believes that his divine power is a gift of fate rather than an [[BlessedWithSuck inescapable curse.]] |
| 1320 | * DiedInYourArmsTonight: He held Hannah in his arms and managed to show her the wedding ring he had gotten for her right before she died. |
| 1321 | * ElectricBlackGuy: Gaius is a black man with the thunder god Zeus as his divine benefactor, and thus has the ability to wield lightning. |
| 1322 | * GlassCannon: His ''Thunder Judgment'' ability can potentially be a TotalPartyKill when injected with too much Attack, and can be incredibly deadly on less targets despite the reduced damage output on a same target. Gaius himself is not durable, though, and can fall pretty quickly. As a random enemy, he has high Attack output, but his Defense is very low. |
| 1323 | * HumbleHero: Although he is legendary among Espers, he doesn't like taking enough presence outside of work but rather prefers to stay at the backside to continue his Miracle research in peace while leaving the rest to his subordinates. |
| 1324 | * TheLeader: Alongside others, he is one of the Original Esper Seven who founded the Union. It's said that the lightning bolt in the Union's emblem symbolizes him. |
| 1325 | * TheLostLenore: Lost his fiancée Hannah to a sudden Miracle attack at Estero Harbor. As a result, he rarely smiles and turns his sorrow and grief over his lost into determination to protect humanity. |
| 1326 | * MarkedChange: When using his powers, he gains bright blue markings on his hands. They extend to his entire body and face when in God King Mode. |
| 1327 | * MementoMacGuffin: A wedding ring, symbolizing his love for Hannah. |
| 1328 | * MiseryBuildsCharacter: It's through the sorrow and anguish of losing his beloved fiancée that he molded them into his unbreakable resolve. |
| 1329 | * ObsessivelyOrganized: In regards to his hair. The man goes to Chloe's Fashion Studio '''every three days''' just for a '''buzz cut''' whenever his hair gets '''''1mm''''' taller because it's an old habit of his as a military man. When Chloe finally convinces him to come back at least every two or three weeks, his diary entry reveals that he ''still'' came back 3 days later '''during a rainy day.''' |
| 1330 | * ThePerfectionist: He strives for perfection in all things, all down to the exact measurements he wants for his haircuts, which drive his barber Chloe crazy. |
| 1331 | * PerpetualFrowner: Upon losing Hannah, he was unable to smile as much anymore. He does smile a bit from time to time, though. |
| 1332 | * PowerFloats: Once he triggers his [[SuperMode God King Mode]], he gains the ability of flight and is seen floating in battle. |
| 1333 | * ProphetEyes: Zig-zagged. His eyes are normally about [[CurtainsMatchTheWindow the same lavender color as his hair]], but they turn blank white when he’s using his powers. |
| 1334 | * TheReliableOne: As a leader, he is this, but also due to his endless power of electricity, he's considered a living portable power bank for others. |
| 1335 | * RoaringRampageOfRevenge: Went absolutely berserk and singlehandedly took out a Miracle and a bunch of Miramon right after the Miracle shot his fiancée Hannah in the chest. |
| 1336 | * ScaryBlackMan: Exudes this air around him, but Chloe describes him as such a scary person that he keeps scaring young ladies coming to her studio when he comes for a simple ''buzz cut'' '''''every 3 days'''''. |
| 1337 | * ShockAndAwe: His main attribute, as the Esper of Zeus. Thus, he's surrounded by electricity and his abilities are lightning based. |
| 1338 | * SuperMode: His God King Mode allows him to gain an extra turn, altering the properties of his attacks to become deadlier for certain situations. |
| 1339 | * ThemeMusicPowerUp: Sometimes, whenever using ''Thunderstorm'', his animation will play and trigger his exclusive power up theme while he's in God Mode. |
| 1340 | * TheThingThatWouldNotLeave: Or rather the client that wouldn't leave Chloe's Fashion Studio ''every three days.'' If she sees him coming, she has to personally tell him that her shop is closed no matter the time just to turn him away before he reaches the front entrance or else he scares clientele and people watching indirectly spread rumors that Chloe can only do buzz cuts, much to her frustration. |
| 1341 | * TraumaticSuperpowerAwakening: Although he was already an Esper, watching Hannah getting killed right before him caused his real powers to manifest. |
| 1342 | * WalkingShirtlessScene: Once triggering his God King Mode, he loses his coat and shirt. [[MrFanService Yes, he's ripped.]] |
| 1343 | * YellowLightningBlueLightning: He has yellow lightning bolt decals on his outfit, but his actual lightning powers are a very light blue. |

| 1349 | !!!'''Voiced By:''' Arianna Ratner (Adult), Jamie Sara Lewis (Child) (English), Creator/SaoriOnishi (Japanese), Kim Ga-Ryung (Korean)\ |
| 1350 | '''Attribute:''' Flow\ |
| 1351 | '''Role:''' Fighter\ |
| 1352 | |
| 1353 | A meticulous and steel-hearted fighter whose sense of justice is often tested, formerly from the Esper Union before joining the Shadow Decree ''before'' defecting back to the Esper Union. She and Elaine grew up in the same orphanage and defined themselves as sisters until their eventual separation, though they still have lingering feelings of sisterhood. She is a fighter Esper who can utilize her unique ''War Goddess'' buff and extend it if Elaine is in the same team, or ''Dawnglow'' if Elaine is a foe. |
| 1354 | |
| 1355 | * Leora has two unique, undispellable buffs. They are... |
| 1356 | ** War Goddess, which amplifies her damage if her C. RATE is greater than or equal to her targets. The greater the gap, the higher the damage. Additionally, if an ally is about to take a critical hit, Leora grants them a shield. |
| 1357 | ** Dawnglow, which increases her C. DMG and ensures that her attacks against Elaine won't miss. |
| 1358 | * ''Forward Strike'' deals damage to an enemy based on Leora's ATK, while also inflicting Sear. At the start of combat, all of Leora's ability cooldowns will be reset. |
| 1359 | * ''Dawn Guardian'' grants Standoff to all allies, with allies below a certain percentage of their HP getting it for an extra turn. She then deals damage to an enemy based on her ATK. Bfore using this ability, Leora gains the War Goddess buff, and if she already has it, its duration is increased. When ascended, this attack does more damage for each ally that's still on the field (Leora excluded). |
| 1360 | * ''Daylight Beam'' gives Leora Invincibility and ATK Up, then dispells all buffs on a selected enemy before inflicting C. RATE Down and attacking them (damage based on ATK). Then, Leora inflicts C. RATE Down on all enemies and attacks them too. Before casting this ability, Leora gains the War Goddess buff. If Elaine is on her team and has the Night Goddess buff, War Goddess is gained for an extra turn. If Leora already has War Goddess, its duration is extended. At the start of combat, Leora gains Dawnglow if Elaine is on the enemy team. |
| 1361 | ---- |
| 1362 | * AllOfTheOtherReindeer: She used to be looked down by her Union peers when she defected back to the team, though she managed to regain their trust because she does care about them. |
| 1363 | * ADayInTheLimelight: Starts in the Dusk & Dawn event as she seeks missing Divine Wave devices at Tabaton. |
| 1364 | * DealWithTheDevil: [[spoiler:She provides Anesidora with the lab data from the underground lab under Tabaton to ensure that Anesidora will look after the townspeople, despite the fact Anesidora is ruthless in her research and will use them as guinea pigs in the end.]] |
| 1365 | * {{Determinator}}: |
| 1366 | ** In story terms, she can fend off multiple Miramon attacks by herself. |
| 1367 | ** In gameplay terms, her ''Dawn Guardian'' can grant her allies Standoff, and perhaps for an extra turn when their HP is low. |
| 1368 | * DramaticIrony: She's modeled after Athena, the Greek goddess known for her practical reason. In the Dusk & Dawn event, [[spoiler:she's put through the ringer trying to choose the best decision of two from a very SadisticChoice that will make her carry a heavy burden: either all of Tabaton and Cory die because the Divine Wave Transmitter supporting them goes offline, or they continue living with the big possibility of becoming crazed Esper monsters if they don't take illegal Esper serum.]] |
| 1369 | * ElementalRockPaperScissors: Unlike the usual norm, she's the only Esper who's capable of landing all her hits on an Esper with the resistant element in case Elaine - a Wind Esper to her Flow element - is a foe, which triggers Leora's ''Dawnglow'' buff, which can't be dispelled either. |
| 1370 | * FaceHeelRevolvingDoor: She started off as an Esper Union member before following on Embla's footsteps and dejecting to the Shadow Decree, but then her time there made her question the organization's shady tactics and lack of safety for innocent lives that ended with her and Elaine getting into a fight. She was then saved by the Union and became a Union Ops Chief for good. |
| 1371 | * FamilyOfChoice: Although she and Elaine aren’t blood relatives, they still consider each other sisters. |
| 1372 | * {{Foil}}: Towards Elaine. Thematically, Leora is a force of good with bright colors, while Elaine is a force of evil in dark colors. However, they both have common ground in judging both justice and evil, which then make them differ about what's right or wrong. |
| 1373 | * HeroWithBadPublicity: Her eventual rejoining to the Esper Union didn't stop the news from reporting the fact she was a Shadow Decree member, which caused the populace to label her as a villain bidding her time to strike. Luckily for her, her teammates adore her, and sometimes, other news outlets like to have her on the front pages for her heroism (much to David's chagrin). |
| 1374 | * {{Otaku}}: She loves reading shojo manga, especially the romances between heroes and heroines confessing their love. |
| 1375 | * SadisticChoice: [[spoiler:She is given the option to turn off the Divine Wave Transmitter at Tabaton so that the citizens don't slowly become into wild monsters, but that would also mean they'd die alongside Cory. If it's left on, the citizens and Cory will live but will eventually succumb to their diseases. Though she chooses to turn it off, the generator is rebooted 17 seconds later, "saving" everyone in Tabaton but resigning them all to their fates. Furthermore, Leora takes an ever riskier decision by giving Anesidora a copy of the data from the destroyed lab with the hopes that Anesidora will keep the citizens safe despite her underhanded experiments.]] |
| 1376 | * SiblingTeam: Similarly to the Xie brothers, if Elaine with ''Night Goddess'' is in her team, her ''War Goddess'' buff gets extended by an extra turn. However, this can get subverted if Elaine is a foe, in which case Leora gains ''Dawnglow'', making her attacks unable to miss on Elaine. |
| 1377 | * SweetTooth: Loves baking cakes in her room as one of her favorite pasttimes. |
| 1378 | * TakingTheBullet: She throws herself in the way of a Miramon attack meant to strike Li Ling, saving him. This causes him to see her in a new light as a trustworthy ally ([[ComicallyMissingThePoint that won't rat him out to his superiors for oversleeping]]). |
| 1379 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: One of her favorite pasttimes is sipping black tea. |

| 1389 | '''Role''': Fighter |
| 1390 | |
| 1391 | A confident young man harnessing the power of Nezha, arming himself with 4 extra arms and a spear. He believes that only the strong have the power to change the world, and works hard to become the strongest. Despite being a valued part of the Esper Union, he doesn't think much of rules and regulations, and frequently causes trouble for his colleagues and superiors. |
| 1392 | |
| 1393 | * ''Lanceburner'' attacks one enemy and deals damage based on Li Ling's ATK. May also inflict Sear for 2 turns. |
| 1394 | * ''Tai Chi'' attacks one enemy five times and deals five instances of damage based on Li Ling's ATK. He has a chance to inflict DEF Down, and upon landing a Crit, his AP increases. When ascended, this skill also heals Li Ling for a portion of the damage dealt. |
| 1395 | * ''Altar'' attacks all enemies three times, dealing damage based on Li Ling's ATK, as well as True Damage based on the individual enemy's Max HP (up to a certain percentage of Li Ling's ATK). The final hit also steals some of the enemy's AP. |
| 1396 | ---- |
| 1397 | |
| 1398 | * ArtificialLimbsAreStronger: The power of Nezha grants him four massive, additional arms floating behind his back. He can control these arms at will and uses them to assault enemies relentlessly with fists and spear. |
| 1399 | * ArtworkAndGameGraphicsSegregation: Does he have visible nipples or not? |
| 1400 | * BlessedWithSuck: After Brynn tried to ask him for help in how to properly lie down on her bed with the wings on her back getting in the way, Li Ling became so distraught trying to come up with a solution for her that her asking him about it indirectly caused ''him'' problems trying to sleep with his four floating arms giving him issues. |
| 1401 | * ChildProdigy: He became an Esper since he was a little kid, which gave him a rebellious streak and beat up older people all the time. Then he has an easy defeat at non-Esper Yun Chuan's hands, which ended his "prodigious" status. |
| 1402 | * ComicallyMissingThePoint: He used to think Leora was untrustworthy because she used to be a Shadow Decree member for years. but he comes to learn that she really means being a member of the Union...because loyal friends who don't rat out their other friends (Li Ling) from oversleeping before a mission are rare and precious. |
| 1403 | --->'''Tang Xuan''': [[VisibleSilence ...]] |
| 1404 | * CrutchCharacter: Has turned into this since his nerf in update 3.1.5. He used to be a staple character on most player's teams before, even at high-level play. After the update, he tends to be more used by beginners, helped by the fact that he is one of the two guaranteed drops when players pull their first Legendary tier Esper. |
| 1405 | * {{Deuteragonist}}: Alongside Tang Xuan, in the Truth Unveiled event, as Li Ling is searching for his lost master Yun Chuan. |
| 1406 | * HotBlooded: Gets riled up easily, especially when provoked or when he is convinced of an injustice dealt to those close to him. |
| 1407 | * {{Irony}}: Though his appearance is anything but friendly, children find him fun to be with (i.e. climb onto). Said children abhor his master Yun Chuan because he looks more villainous due to his scars. |
| 1408 | * RedEyesTakeWarning: Upon hitting young adulthood, the sclera of his eyes became all black while his pupils became red, giving him the impression of a demon. Notably, he had normal eyes when he was a little kid with his Esper powers. |
| 1409 | * ReformedButNotTamed: Used his powers to boss around others and similar selfish reasons after awaking to them, up until meeting Yun Chuan, who taught him better. Still, he regularly goes behind the backs of his Esper Union superiors to follow up on leads, and is willing to bend the rules in his pursuit. |
| 1410 | * StarterMon: He or Tang Xuan can be a starting player's first guaranteed Legendary Esper from their first Echo session. |
| 1411 | * SeriesMascot: Next to Drew, he was featured the most among early trailers and advertising, to the point where people tend to recognize him more than the former. |
| 1412 | * ThoseTwoGuys: He's almost always seen hanging out with Tang Xuan, who also happens to be the other random choice for a starting player's first guaranteed Legendary Esper. |
| 1413 | * UnaffectedBySpice: He has an incredibly high tolerance for extremely spicy condiments that anyone trying to eat from his food will end up sick for a day. He even plasters ice pops with his Tangton spicy sauce while boasting that it's meant to cool you down. |
| 1414 | * UndyingLoyalty: To Yun Chuan, his old mentor. |
| 1415 | * WalkingShirtlessScene: Prominently displays his bare torso, showing off his impressive musculature. Even his alternative skin has him wear an open leather jacket with no shirt. |

| 1427 | A hot-headed, flame-wielding Ops Chief who prefers to let his fists do the talking. Brother to Bonnie. He is a Fighter Esper who is able to give himself a variety of buffs when landing Critical Hits. |
| 1428 | |
| 1429 | * ''Iron Fists'' deals damage to an enemy based on Lewis’ ATK. Lewis will heal himself for a percentage of the damage dealt, and his AP increases when landing a Critical Hit. Each point of SPD deals extra damage. |
| 1430 | * ''Flames of Fury'' gives Lewis C. RATE Up, and then deals damage to an enemy based on his ATK. This attack inflicts Sear, and he gains a turn if he lands a Critical Hit. Each point of SPD deals extra damage. |
| 1431 | * ''Rage Avatar'' attacks an enemy 3 times, dealing damage based on Lewis’ ATK. For every certain percentage of Max HP that the target loses, the damage increases. Each point of SPD deals extra damage. When ascended, Lewis gains Invicibility after attacking, and if he gets a kill with this ability, his cooldowns decrease by one turn. |
| 1432 | ---- |
| 1433 | * ChainedByFashion: He wears a pair of chains across his torso in lieu of a shirt, as well as around his arms. The latter ones seem to be attached to his gauntlets. |
| 1434 | * ElementalPunch: Fire. |
| 1435 | * FlamingHair: Unlike Lucas, he plays the trope straight, as his hair is actually on fire. |
| 1436 | * FriendToAllChildren: Ever since he and his sister wound up on the streets after tragedy struck their family, Lewis has been taking orphans and street kids under his wing. He strives to bring them a better life not just because he cares about them, but because he believes it will bring his sister back to his side. |
| 1437 | * TheIllegible: His biggest secret is that his handwriting is abysmal, and he practices it in secret every chance he gets. |
| 1438 | * MeaningfulName: “Lewis” means renowned warrior, which goes well with the Esper of a war god. |
| 1439 | * MyGreatestFailure: Being unable to protect everyone with his Esper Powers after winding up on the streets, as well as the subsequent departure of his sister Bonnie. |
| 1440 | * NoShirtLongJacket: He wears nothing on his torso under his calf-length jacket except a pair of chains. |
| 1441 | * NotInThisForYourRevolution: He doesn’t actually care if the Union or the Shadow Decree is the “right side”. He just goes with whatever option lets him get stronger and helps him bring his ideal world into reality, which happens to be the Union. |
| 1442 | * PlayingWithFire: All of his abilities involve the use of his flaming fists. Fittingly enough, he’s an Inferno Esper. |

| 1525 | * DrawAggro: His main gimmick is causing his enemies to hit him in order to reduce ''Pure Enlightment'''s cooldown. To aid him in this, his attacks can induce Taunt. This is also how he found his fighting potential when the Shadow Decree invaded the Archives. |

| 1571 | ** Carnival Heat, which is effective in subsequents rounds of combat and can stack up to 100 times. If Archibald is in the party, Mavis attacks all enemies for every 20 stacks of this buff she gets, dealing damage based on her ATK. This attack always does critical hit damage. Mavis will also heal herself for every 10 stacks she gets. When she reaches 100 stacks, the damage and healing increase dramatically. |

| 1580 | * ConditionedToAcceptHorror: Just like Hilda, Mavis's mortician parents taught her not to fear death, as it should be seen as a cycle of life that should be cherished instead. |

| 1582 | * ADayInTheLimelight: She debuts in the ''Bemusement Park'' story event. |

| 1601 | * ''Sunset'' is a passive ability. Raven does a pursuit attack whenever an enemy without buffs takes a hit. After a pursuit attack, she attacks all enemies twice, dealing damage based on her ATK. If an enemy is not buffed, these attacks do extra damage (based on ATK), and each point of her SPD deals extra damage too. Each hit reduces the enemy's Max HP capacity, and when an ally makes an enemy buff end early, ''Sunset's'' cooldown decreases. |

Then she dispells all enemy buffs before attacking all enemies, dealing damage based on her ATK, and extra damage based on each point of SPD. She also inflicts DEF Down.

The children at the orphanage were arguing with one another when they couldn't agree on either Gaius or Raven being the best Esper, but then they swiftly reconsidered and changed that to Feng Nuxi when they saw her scolding the two of them for not doing a good job fixing the electricity at the orphanage and forcing them to fix it. |
| 1629 | * BirdsOfAFeather: She and Heng Yue share the same idea to find a way to De-Esper Espers because they both believe it brings difficulties (at least to Espers who find it troublesome to be Espers at all). Both of them suffered from becoming Espers. |
| 1630 | * BlessedWithSuck: Feng Nuxi believes in the concept of “De-Esperification”, not just because the Miracles are dangerous, but because of the effects that an Esper transformation has on a person’s daily life. For instance, when Nuxi received her own powers, she found it difficult to accept her new appearance, and the kids in the orphanage she runs became scared of her. |

She will then follow up with ''Chaos Strike'' as a pursuit. Wu You gains Poise at the start of combat, and grants Shockproof to any other Defender Espers on her team. Once per target per turn, when she or a Shockproofed ally takes a hit, the attacker takes True Damage based on the DEF of whoever took the damage, and if Wu You is not incapacitated she gains a stack of Grounded. When she hits max stacks of Grounded, she will instantly cast ''Fade to Black''. If Wu You is the only surviving ally on her team, the SPD increase provided by Poise will be changed drastically and her active turns will no longer be skipped. |

| 1686 | * TheStoic: She's known throughout the Union as having an aloof and stoic attitude, as well as being a woman of few words. |
