5!! Original Characters

7[[foldercontrol]]
8-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9[[folder:Akimoto]]
10!!Akimoto Infernus
11
12Former leader of the Rebels and self-proclaimed Demon Lord. He begins the series as an antagonist until his humiliating accidental defeat at the hands of Almaz (and a conveniently-place wine glass). Forced to give up his cushy, hedonistic lifestyle, he's forced into the main party and travels alongside them on their journey. Self-centered and cocky, his apparent prowess in battle does little to compensate for his less-than-agreeable behavior.
13
14!!! Tropes:
15
16* AuthorAvatar: WordOfGod even states that Aki is intended to reflect some of the author's major traits.
17* BadBoss: Treats his men pretty poorly - enough to have them desert him after only a few months of being hired.
18%%** Doubles as TheNeidermeyer.
19%%* {{BFS}}
20* EekAMouse: Terrified of small rodents, most notably squirrels.
21%%* EntitledBastard
22* EntitledToHaveYou}: In regards to pretty much every woman he interacts with. His attempted rescue of Miyu is a particularly strong example.
23* FantasticRacism: Or a Fantastic Racist in this case. Hates all humans, claiming that they're all terrible and irredeemable... Despite being an [[TooDumbToLive ally]] of humans Almaz and Ariadne.
24* GeneralFailure: Tauntus is more successful in rallying Aki's troops than Aki himself.
25%%* GloryHound
26%%* HotBlooded
27* {{Hypocrite}}: Again, seems to reflect back on his complete inability to acknowledge his own faults. Of particular note is him calling out Victoire's cousin for being arrogant, selfish, and entitled - all traits that Aki himself has demonstrated with aplomb.
28* IAmXSonOfY: Makes frequent mention of his father Ensis and his overall lineage as a warrior.
29* IncompatibleOrientation: Has a fairly obvious crush on fellow commander [[LipstickLesbian Victoire]].
30%%* ItsAllAboutMe
31%%* {{Jerkass}}
32* KatanasAreJustBetter: Despite being referred to as a 'Centurion's' blade, Aki's sword is still somehow a katana.
33%%* LargeHam: Particularly prior to his defeat by Almaz.
34* {{Mangst}}: Subverted. Aki's lamenting about his dead dad is played as this, but falls flat due to repetition.
35* NeverMyFault: Seems to be completely unable to own up to his own behavior.
36%%* PrimaryColorChampion
37%%* RebelliousSpirit
38* WeHaveReserves: His style of commanding relies heavily on this. Of course, he only has said reserves thanks to borrowing from Victoire's own troops.
39[[/folder]]
40
41[[folder: Vent]]
42!!Vent, Overlord of the Abyss
43
44!!! Tropes
45
46* AbusiveParents: [[spoiler: His father, the original Overlord of the Abyss, was a psychopathic despot who murdered his wife and drove his own son temporarily insane.]]
47%%* ButtMonkey
48* CasanovaWannabe: The only way he seems to be able to get any girl is by forcibly stealing them away
49%%* HeterosexualLifePartners: Also with Aki and Raz. Mostly Aki.
50%%* PowerMullet
51%%* SensitiveGuyAndManlyMan: The sensitive guy to Raziel's manly man.
52%%* {{Slimeball}}
53%%* ThoseTwoGuys: With Raz.
54%%* WeUsedToBeFriends: With Akimoto
55* VillainousFashionSense: While not as flagrant as some other trope examples, his almost exclusively black, excessively-zippered, ominously torn wardrobe in contrast to {{Foil}} Akimoto's brighter primary colors mark him as deliberately sinister.
56
57[[/folder]]
58
59[[folder: Fiona]]
60!! Fiona
61
62
63%%* CuteWitch
64%%* FriendToAllLivingTHings
65%%* IncorruptiblePurePureness
66%%* {{Pollyanna}}
67* SealedEvilInACan: This applies more to [[spoiler: Arcana, the spirit of the vengeful overlord sealed inside her.]]
68* {{Tykebomb}}: [[spoiler: Albeit an unwilling one, considering she's a highly dangerous and unstable vessel for a malevolent entity.]]
69%%* TokenMiniMoe
70%%* WhiteMagicianGirl
71[[/folder]]
72
73[[folder: Tauntus]]
74!! Tartarus Krichevskoy (Tauntus)
75
76A character borrowed from a sister fanwork, ''Disgaea Corruption of Innocence''. Because the two stories run on different timelines, the explanation given for his presence is that he and his brother Veneficus used Tick-Tock to travel back in time and stop Atropos, the denizen of time, from reforming the timelines.
77
78!!!Tropes
79
80* AllLoveIsUnrequited: Though he's got the hots for two girls, Helena and Alessa, neither of them like him and find him impossibly irritating.
81%%* AllTakeAndNoGive
82* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Despite his moronic appearances, Tauntus is entirely capable of destruction whenever angry.
83** Demonstrated in one of his special moves, Typheus Overdrive, in which he literally destroys an entire volcano.
84** At one point he angrily destroys the boundary around Akimoto's Tower, although the shield was rumored to be utterly impenetrable.
85** Occasionally leans more toward the LetsGetDangerous trope, remaining completely giddy while beating down enemies.
86** In the future, his presence alone is enough to intimidate the rebellious Scarlet into submission. She seems to only be afraid of his threat to "drop a mountain on her" if she continued to argue with Alessa.
87** He's the only one who has ever run headlong into the fray with a denizen without a second thought.
88* FluffyTamer: Tartarus can calm almost any screaming beast.
89** He calmed a manticore that was waiting in Asbael's den.
90** Whenever squirrels were released onto the field in a battle as a distraction, Tart adopted all of them and now utilizes them as an extensive spy network that lets him know all of Aki's secrets.
91** Actually does tame a mutant he names Fluffy.
92* HairAntennae: Fittingly given a haircut by his brother Adon, demoting him to simply IdiotHair.
93%%* JerkWithAHeartOfGold
94* {{Kidanova}} : Subverted. He thinks he's a real lady-killer, but girls around his own age find him irritating and women find him more cute and endearing than anything.
95** Instead he tends to refer to attractive older women as "mom"
96* KillItWithWater: Tauntus is a helpless hydrophobe, ridiculous enough that his antics can immediately be put to an end with a handy-dandy spray bottle.
97** He is even more afraid of snow and ice.
98%%* KillerRabbit
99* ObfuscatingStupidity: Although he's regarded as a none-too bright scamp by most of the cast, Tartarus is no stranger to behavior typically seen in Etna, [[spoiler: who he learned it from]].
100** This front allows him to get away with nearly anything just because he's seen as childish and endearing. Suckers.
101* OurDragonsAreDifferent: Tauntus has no fewer than two pet dragons that the audience and cast are aware of. Considering his tendency to 'adopt' them, he may have more hidden somewhere.
102** He used Aki's fridge as a water dragon hatchery, of course, without permission to do so.
103* PlayingWithFire
104* ProfessionalButtKisser: To Laharl, mainly because [[spoiler: Laharl grows up to be his father.]]
105** More than incidentally to Etna for similar reasons.
106** Interestingly enough, Akimoto becomes one of these to Tauntus in the future, referring to the child as "My Lord."
107* RedOniBlueOni: Tauntus plays the role of Red Oni.
108* RedIsHeroic
109* Team Pet
110
111[[/folder]]
112
113[[folder: Adon]]
114!! Veneficus Krichevskoy (Adon)
115
116
117A character borrowed from a sister fanwork, WebOriginal/DisgaeaCorruptionOfInnocence. Because the two stories run on different timelines, the explanation given for his presence is that he and his brother Tartarus used Tick-Tock to travel back in time and stop Atropos, the denizen of time, from reforming the timelines.
118
119!!!Tropes
120
121%%* BlueCollarWarlock
122* CatsAreMean: His pet housecat, Minerva, appears to be borderline homicidal.
123%%* ChildMage
124%%* DeadpanSnarker
125* DealWithTheDevil: Made a deal with Vindaego unknowingly as a child which allowed the universe's fabric to start to come apart.
126%%* GreenThumb
127* HairAntennae: Keeps them hidden, somehow, in his hair. Resemble bunny ears.
128%%* InTouchWithHisFeminineSide
129%%* NatureLover
130* PardonMyKlingon: Shown to be able to communicate with Denizens by making strange guttural throat noises. Corruption's long-standing presence and presence in his mind probably allows him to do this.
131%%* RedOniBlueOni: Adon plays the role of Blue Oni.
132%%* SarcasticDevotee
133%%* SquishyWizard
134* TheShadowKnows: Except in this case, the shadow itself is a shapeshifting monster that knows all of his hidden secrets.
135%%* TheTragicRose
136* YouAreWhatYouHate: [[spoiler: An angel, or rather, fallen angel since a very young age.]]
137
138[[/folder]]
139
140[[folder: Archimedes]]
141!! Archimedes Ydriss
142
143%%* AbhorrentAdmirer: To Axel.
144%%* TheAlcoholic
145%%** AlcoholicParent: Poor, POOR Jasper.
146%%* BadassBookworm
147%%* BadassLongcoat: As with above, the 'badass' part can be rather conditional.
148%%* BunnyEarsLawyer
149* CarpetOfVirility Of the Type One variety. Under those clothes, he's absolutely COVERED in hair.
150%%* TheCobblersChildrenHaveNoShoes
151* CutenessProximity: {{Stoic}} or not, he turns into a puddle of baby-talking goo around cats and kittens.
152%%* CynicalMentor
153%%* HerrDoktor
154* {{Fanboy}}: Obsessed with Axel to the point of hero worship (and a borderline CelebCrush)
155* FreudianExcuse: The memories of childhood abuse could have been dealt with if they'd been kept safely repressed. However, Mao reopening them -- and the MindRape that followed -- left Archi traumatized and lacking the emotional capability to deal with them. Or much else, for that matter.
156%%* GermanicDepressives
157* IWasQuiteTheLooker: Revealed to be a handsome, athletic PrettyBoy prior to his breakdown.
158%%* JadeColoredGlasses
159%%* {{Jerkass}}
160* KnightInSourArmor: As evidenced by his desire to continue his job because while he doesn't like the people he works with, he believes they still deserve help.
161%%* MindOverMatter
162%%* MustHaveNicotine
163%%* PsychicNosebleed
164* ReallyGetsAround: Bordering on ExtremeOmnisexual after the revelation that Corruption can shapeshift into Vyers.
165%%* SourOutsideSadInside
166%%* TroubledAbuser
167* TVGenius: {{Subverted}}. While he's highly intelligent and one of the most analytically-talented people in his field of work, he's also foul-mouthed, prone to lapsing into {{Buffyspeak}} , and has a sense of humor on par with a twelve-year-old boy. And his lack of common sense tends to drown out his high IQ on most occasions.
168* WhyCouldntYouBeDifferent: Less than impressed with how his shy, emotional son turned out.
169[[/folder]]
170
171[[folder: Raz]]
172!! Raziel
173
174* AndIMustScream: Arguably his fate post-series; while it's not as severe as some of the other examples, being trapped in a rotting, undead body and being forbidden to die so you can look after your high school buddy's kids is still pretty awful.
175%%* CharlesAtlasSuperpower
176%%* DeadpanSnarker
177%%* OurZombiesAreDifferent
178%%* GoodOldFisticuffs
179%%* OnlySaneMan: Often plays this to Akimoto and Vent.
180%%* ThoseTwoGuys: With Vent.
181[[/folder]]
182
183[[folder: Vayle]]
184!! Vayle
185
186%%* BattleBallgown
187%%* BlackMage
188%%* ClingyJealousGirl
189%%* CostumePorn
190%%* {{Goth}}
191* GreenEyedMonster: Becomes instantly and disproportionately jealous of any girl Aki shows interest in.
192%%* InformedAttractiveness
193%%* {{Necromancer}}
194%%* NoSocialSkills
195%%* RichBitch
196%%* SatelliteLoveInterest: To Aki.
197* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: She'll firmly and repeatedly insist that the ghosts who make her dresses for her do it of their own free will, and aren't enslaved.
198* TomeOfEldritchLore: Inherited from her mother; it apparently contains every spell known to demon, angel, and humankind. Or so we're told.
199%%* VainSorceress
200%%* WomanScorned
201[[/folder]]
202
203
204[[folder: Asbael]]
205!! Asbael
206
207%%* AffablyEvil
208%%* AgentPeacock
209%%* AxCrazy
210%%* BewareTheSillyOnes
211* BlueAndOrangeMorality: Asbael doesn't perpetrate most of his acts because he's evil so much as he does because he operates on an insane sort of alien logic.
212%%* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: A dangerous and highly unstable version.
213%%* CrouchingMadmanHiddenBadass
214* DidYouJustRomanceCthulhu: [[spoiler: After the fake Miyu revealed 'herself' to be the EldritchAbomination Nybras, Asbael was instantly smitten. The two went through with their marriage, and are now blissfully wedded and parents to a hideously grotesque creature of their own.]]
215* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Crazy or not, he adores his "wife" and dotes on his child.
216* TheEvilPrince: Moreso in his youth, just after his StartOfDarkness.
217* FisherKing: His realm and its inhabitants are inherently tied to his own madness.
218* GoKartingWithBowser: Typically a villain, but after the Miyu incident, he seemed to appear almost casually.
219* HappilyMarried: To a horrifying sack of fat covered in sentient faces.
220%%* HotGuyUglyWife
221* ImAHumanitarian: One of his favorite foods is Servant's-Hand Pie.
222%%* LargeHam
223%%* TheMadHatter
224%%* MasterOfIllusion
225%%* MoodSwinger
226%%* NightmareFuelStationAttendant
227%%* PapaWolf: God help you if you so much as think about harming Newyn.
228%%* PsychopathicManchild
229* RealityWarper: To a degree, though this is mostly based in illusion.
230* {{Squick}}: [[spoiler: His penchant for disemboweling hapless servants and guests and using their entrails for interior decoration aside, there was also the whole matter of him falling head-over-heels in love with Nybras. And conceiving a child with it. And he's dropped hints that he wants to have more. Urgh.]]
231%%* UsedToBeASweetKid
232[[/folder]]
233
234[[folder: Corruption]]
235!! Corruption (Darkie)
236
237A character borrowed from a sister fanwork, WebOriginal/DisgaeaCorruptionOfInnocence. Because the two stories run on different timelines, the explanation given for his presence is that Atropos, Denizen of time, traveled to a time before Adon's birth to release denizens from their artifacts. Corruption was released by Atropos.
238
239%%* LivingShadow
240* WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity}: Despite his power, he's shown to be extremely capricious in behavior. This can take him anywhere from {{Cloudcuckoolander}} to AxCrazy, often in a matter of seconds.
241* GuyOnGuyIsHot: Seems....fascinated by homoeroticism. Morphs into Vyers at several points to attempt to woo in Archi. He succeeds.
242* OddballDoppelganger
243* DidYouJustFlipOffCthulhu: Corruption is under employ, possibly a slave of EldritchAbomination Vindaego, and is supposed to collect Adon's soul for the Denizens. However, Corruption appears determined to slack off on this goal because he considers Vindaego a horrible boss.
244** He actually doesn't want to do his duty at all, as he is afraid of Vindaego and would rather join the cast than prey on them.
245* GoodAllAlong: [[spoiler: Whenever Ainoire collects enough Denizen artifacts to strengthen their power and becomes a servant of Vindaego, Ainoire nearly succeeds in sacrificing Adon, but Corruption leaves Adon's body and kills Ainoire first. Although he basically saved the universe, none of the party seem to appreciate his efforts.]] See NotEvilJustMisunderstood. He joins the party later on.
246* MorphicResonance: No matter what shape or identity he assumes, he always remains the same dusky colors, has the same eyes, razor teeth, creepily long arms, large ears, and ultra-emaciated figure.
247* PardonMyKlingon: Commonly interjects tidbits of R'lyehian into conversation.
248[[/folder]]
249
250[[folder: Nybras]]
251!! Nybras
252
253%%* BodyHorror
254%%* EldritchAbomination
255%%* ExtremeOmnivore
256* FaceStealer: Obtains the appearance and abilities of anyone it consumes, and can briefly borrow a person's form even without eating them.
257%%* HappilyMarried: To Asbael.
258%%* HorrorHunger
259* MamaBear: Doesn't exactly possess typical "maternal instincts", but is still highly protective of Newyn.
260* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Live orc piglets.
261[[/folder]]
262
263[[folder: Newyn]]
264!! Newyn
265
266%%* BodyHorror
267%%* CheerfulChild: When it's not hungry.
268%%* CreepilyLongArms
269%%* CreepyChild
270%%* DidWeJustHaveTeaWithCthulhu
271%%* EldritchAbomination
272%%* ExtremeOmnivore
273%%* HalfHumanHybrid: Sort of.
274%%* HorrorHunger
275%%* HumanoidAbomination
276%%* HungryMenace
277%%* IAmAHumanitarian
278* {{Malaproper}}: Has a tenuous grasp on the English language at best, and often affectionately refers to living things as a "Meet".
279%%* MoreTeethThanTheOsmond Family: In its EYES of all places.
280* TheFamilyThatSlaysTogether: Although it's hard to tell at this point, all signs indicate that little Newyn is already in the process of inheriting dear old Dad's complete lack of morals as well as 'Mom's' excessive and... Unusual appetite. Both Mom and Dad couldn't be more delighted, and this has only brought them closer as a family.
281[[/folder]]
282
283[[folder: Miyu]]
284!! Marumine Miyu
285
286* BerserkButton: Detests otaku and harbors a seething dislike towards most of her fanbase.
287* BrainlessBeauty: Averted. In spite of her public persona playing her up as this, she's actually pretty intelligent.
288* BrokenBird: To a small degree -- she's exceptionally bitter about the way her life and career turned out, though she's more angry than broken over it.
289%%* CatGirl
290%%* ContractualPurity
291%%* CuteBruiser
292%%* CuteLittleFangs
293%%* IdolSinger
294%%* {{Kawaiiko}}
295* {{Moe}}: Applies strictly to her stage persona. [[spoiler: Nybras used this to its advantage when stealing her identity, pulling off a WoundedGazelleGambit in order to deceive Akimoto and company.]]
296* NiceGirl: Mostly applies to her public persona.
297* OlderThanTheyLook: Appears to be in her mid-teens, mostly due to every aspect of her appearance being micromanaged by her producers.
298* PetTheDog: She's actually quite fond of kids, and has a soft spot for her younger female fans.
299* PurityPersonified: A major part of her public image.
300* WaifFu: [[spoiler: Began taking self-defense classes after the whole Nybras debacle. As it turns out, she's something of a natural, thanks in no small part to her species.]]
301[[/folder]]
302
303[[folder: Mary]]
304!! Marietta "Bloody Mary" Mjollnir
305
306%%* BoisterousBruiser
307* CoolHorse: Well, horse-motorbike.
308%%* HeadlessHorseman
309* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Revealed to be something of a bully, particularly to Archimedes, when she was still alive. She gets better after dying.
310* MyHorseIsAMotorbike: Half-and-half, in this case.
311%%* StoutStrength
312%%* {{Tomboy}}
313* WeaponSpecialization: Her weapon of choice is a spine whip.
314[[/folder]]
315
316[[folder: Jezebel]]
317!! Jezebel Athame
318
319%%* ClassyCatBurglar
320* CoolBigSis: Makes mention of having a little sister that looks up to her.
321%%* DudeShesALesbian:
322* FemmeFatale: More in her head than elsewhere.
323* {{Gaydar}}: She prides herself on having an exceptionally accurate one.
324%%* GirlsWithGuns
325%%* MuggleBornOfMages
326* ObfuscatingStupidity: Her 'naive country rube' act is all intended to trick others into underestimating her -- she's actually very clever.
327%%* PluckyGirl
328
329[[/folder]]
330
331[[folder: Victoire]]
332!! Victoire Chastain
333
334%%* ActionGirl
335* CombatPragmatist: She's not above attacking someone when they're already down.
336* DisappearedDad: Her father is never mentioned, and it's often assumed that he's dead or abandoned her mother before Victoire was born. [[spoiler: It probably has more to do with that fact that she's Vyers' bastard daughter, the product of a one-night stand that he's all but forgotten about.]]
337%%* ElegantGothicLolita
338%%* {{Fashionista}}
339%%* {{Flynning}}
340* {{Foil}}: Her status as the young army commander from a well-to-do house makes her something of a DistaffCounterpart to Akimoto. However, every other aspect is turned on his head, and her femininity, level-headedness, and far more delicate and refined style of combat make her a polar opposite to him.
341%%* FragileSpeedster
342%%* FriendlyEnemy: Seems to be forming this sort of relationship with Jezebel.
343%%* GratuitousFrench
344* {{Hypocrite}}: Claims to value the notions of honor and chivalry above everything else, but is clearly shown fighting dirty in one-on-one combat at least once.
345%%* KickingAssInAllHerFinery
346%%* LadyOfWar
347* LadykillerInLove: A rare female variant. Her flirtatious behavior departs once she begins to crush on Jezebel, reducing her to a blushing, stammery mess.
348* LikeFatherLikeSon: [[spoiler: A foppish, flamboyant aristocrat with a penchant for French and hidden talent as a leader? Sounds pretty familiar.]]
349%%* LipstickLesbian
350* MeaningfulName: Victoire stems from Victoria, the Latin word for "victory". It becomes fitting when she beats Aki in one-on-one combat.
351** IronicName: The surname Chastain is bastardized from "chastity", which pretty much [[IncorruptiblePurePureness explains]] itself. Meanwhile, Victoire is a female HandsomeLech who ReallyGetsAround and [[spoiler: happens to be half-succubus.]]
352%%* TheOjou
353%%* RegalRinglets
354%%* RoyalRapier
355* UpperClassTwit: Has shades of this due to her extreme naivete and unintentional arrogance towards the lower class.
356[[/folder]]
357
358[[folder: Celeste]]
359!! Celeste Ydriss
360
361%%* AxCrazy:
362%%* BerserkButton: Making a child uncomfortable. Period.
363* BitchInSheepsClothing: Mostly subverted. Celeste actually is a genuinely nice and sweet woman... She just can't stand seeing her 'babies' suffer. Played absolutely straight with her treatment of her husband.
364%%* BrokenBird
365%%* DissonantSerenity
366%%* DomesticAbuse
367%%* TheEmpath
368%%* GodivaHair
369%%* GoodGirlGoneBad
370%%* HartmanHips
371%%* InvulnerableKnuckles: Packs an absolutely terrifying punch.
372* MamaBear: Harming one of her "babies" will lead inevitably to a RoaringRampageOfRevenge.
373* MissingMom: Her own mother abandoning her and her father was one of the reasons Celeste wanted to become a mom in the first place.
374%%* MyBelovedSmother
375%%* StepfordSmiler: Type C.
376* VerbalTic: Calls others 'darling' or 'baby'.
377%%* WomanScorned: Poor, poor Archi.
378* {{Yandere}}: A non-romantic variant -- she's extremely possessive of her children (and any child she regards as 'hers') and won't hesitate to go after anyone who's creating a threat towards her 'babies', imagined or otherwise, and getting them out of the way.
379[[/folder]]
380
381[[folder: Jasper]]
382!! Jasper Ydriss.
383
384!!! Tropes:
385
386* AbusiveParents: In spite of Jasper's attempts to placate him, Archi treats him like absolute crap, insulting and belittling him when he's not ignoring him.
387** Resulted in an unintentional case of TheDogBitesBack when Jasper accidentally shot Archi in the leg during a prank.
388* BewareTheNiceOnes: Timid and stammery or not, he turns into a PapaWolf the instant his pets or family -- usually pets --- are threatened.
389%%* CowardlyLion
390* CuteKitten: Ends up with a small army of them after his pet catsaber Wiggly Pudding gives birth to a litter of wall-eyed, fluffy grey babies.
391* DudeLooksLikeALady: Repeatedly mistaken for a girl by both Aki and Vent.
392%%* TheEmpath
393* FriendlessBackground: Until he met Adon, at least.
394* GuysSmashGirlsShoot: {{Inverted}}. Jasper is trained in firearms and prefers to use rifles, while his sister Alessa uses GoodOldFisticuffs and later graduates to telekinetically-controlled {{Power Fist}}s.
395%%* KindHeartedCatLover
396* MyBelovedSmother: Has one in Celeste, who regards him as her "miracle baby"; it was so severe that she seldom let him play outside when he was little, and kept a months-long vigil over his cradle when he was a baby.
397* ParentalNeglect: Jasper's dad seems to show far more interest in training Adon than he does in spending time with his own son.
398%%* RealMenWearPink
399%%* ShrinkingViolet
400* SpeechImpediment: Speaks with a severe stutter.
401* WellDoneSonGuy: Desperately tries to please his dad. Archi being the kind of [[JerkAss guy]] that he is, this goes about as well as you can expect.
402[[/folder]]
403
404[[folder: Alessa]]
405!! Alessa Ydriss
406
407!!! Tropes:
408
409* AttentionWhore: Revels in attention and acknowledgement, whether it's positive or negative.
410%%* BigBrotherBully: To Jasper.
411%%** Subverted later on as the two grow older and develop a healthier relationship.
412%%* BitchInSheepsClothing
413%%* BrattyTeenageDaughter
414%%* EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette
415%%* FallenAngel
416* FreudianExcuse: Bullied and alienated by her peers in Celestia thanks to FantasticRacism -- being the child of demons -- and her inability to adapt and fit in like her brothers. Her dad neglecting her and initially refusing to accept her as his own also messed her up pretty badly. While it doesn't excuse her behavior, it at least explains her callous attitude and desire for attention.
417* FilleFatale: Fancies herself as one.
418%%* GirlishPigtails
419%%* GirlyBruiser
420%%* {{Jerkass}}
421%%* Little MissSnarker
422* LikeFatherLikeSon: In this case, for both parents. She borrows her manipulative StepfordSmiler behavior and hideous temper from her mother, and her snarky sense of humor -- and unfortunately, eventual drinking problems -- from her father.
423%%* ManipulativeBitch
424* MadScientistsBeautifulDaughter: Or more specifically, Slightly-Unhinged Psychologist's Beautiful Daughter. Either way, she heavily subverts this; the {{Ingenue}} act is all pretense, and she detests her father to the point of wanting to murder him in order to attain fallen angel status.
425%%* MindOverMatter: To a smaller extent than Archi.
426%%* NightmareFetishist
427%%* OlderThanTheyLook
428* SmittenTeenageGirl: Harbors a massive crush on Vyers. Understandably, he's quite disturbed by this, and doesn't reciprocate.
429* {{Sociopath}}: Even if she doesn't fit the textbook definition, she certainly has the makings of one; she's manipulative, deceptive, and has little respect for the well-being and lives of others, going as far as blatantly lying about being kidnapped and abused by Akimoto and Vent in order to provoke Celeste into beating them. However, she does seem to genuinely care about a few people - namely her mother and Helena - so her moral compass isn't totally absent.
430* TooGoodForThisSinfulEarth: {{Subverted}} -- Her tragic death as an infant seemed to mark her as this, but she turned out to be something completely [[JerkAss different]] upon her return.
431%%* TsurimeEyes
432%%* TaremeEyes: Depending on whether or not she's trying to manipulate someone.

436!! Raiden Krichevskoy
437
438!!! Tropes:
439
440%%* ActionDuo: One half of the duo, the other half being his best buddy Tauntus.
441%%* AndCallHimGeorge: Unfortunately, he doesn't always know his own strength.
442%%* AntennaHair: In RegalRinglets, no less!
443* BerserkButton: Long-haired attractive men, particularly incubi. And Adon, for reasons that Raiden himself doesn't seem to understand. [[spoiler:It most likely has something to do with both things reminding him of his estranged father]].
444%%* Cloudcuckoolander

448%%* GoodIsDumb

450%%* LongHairedPrettyBoy
451* LoveFreak: Of a more platonic variety. He loves friendship and revels in people becoming buddies.
452%%* MamasBoy
453%%* ManChild
454%%** Later shows shades of PsychopathicManchild as well, particularly around Adon.
455%%* NoSocialSkills
456* {{Squick}}: [[spoiler:His own parentage is potentially this; he's the result of a short-lived relationship between Flonne and Vyers in an alternate timeline, and the age difference alone might cause some people to cringe]].
457* {{Otaku}}: A huge fan of giant robot/mecha series -- as well as magical girls and horror.

478
479[[folder: Adorea]]
480!! Adorea Melusine

485%%* Bare YourMidriff
486%%* BoyishShortHair
487%%* CoolBigSis
488%%* EyepatchOfPower
489* EyeScream: Courtesy of an Overlord shoving his thumb into her left eye.
490%%* GadgeteerGenius
491* HealingFactor: Recovers from most wounds at an abnormal pace due to her succubus blood. However, her left eye is still only half-formed, and will probably never regrow completely.
492%%* HornedHumanoid
493* HumongousMecha: Building and piloting them is her main obsession.
494* ImprobableWeaponUser: Twin {{Sinister Scythe}}s modified into working shotguns. That can shift into missile launchers.
495%%* MoreDakka
496%%** Combines with MacrossMissileMassacre when she upgrades her weapons.
497* OlderThanTheyLook: She's 68 years old and looks to be in her late twenties/early thirties.
498* RetiredBadass: While she's still a merc, her days of campaigning to become Overlord are far behind her.
499%%* SouthernFriedGenius
500* SuccubiAndIncubi: Subverted. While she is half-succubus, she's not terribly seductive-acting and doesn't seem to care much about sex.

509[[caption-width-right:350:Sexy is dumb.]]
510
511Cauchemaro is an incubus, which one would presume to be the male equivalent of a succubus. However, Cauchemaro is not romance-loving, not a powerful hunter of the night, and certainly not a seducer. However, he's still virtually naked and very touchy-feely.
512
513Cauchemaro is the youngest incubus in his specific group and though an adult only recently reached maturity (control over emotions) that enables him to leave the incubus horde. He works as a butler in Vyers's castle, seeing Vyers like an incubus alpha and looking up to him with utmost respect. Cauchemaro is very domestic, enjoying cooking, cleaning, socializing, playing games, and doting on his adoptive family. Delmonico is his actual older brother.
514
515!!! Tropes:
516
517* BattleButler: Though usually submissive and passive, Cauchemaro is unbelievably strong and will tear through just about anything for his loved ones.
518* CampStraight: He has shown no interest in men and would like to have a girlfriend or even wife someday, as soon as he knows he can control himself.
519* CannotTalkToWomen: Borderline gynophobic. Understandable, since he was raised in an all-male society, and is afraid of messing up and hurting anyone.
520%%* TheClan: Seems to be forming one. Before they took up lodgings with Vyers, Cauchemaro and Delmonico wandered around as a pair.
521%%* GenderFlip: At least in his household roles.
522* GettingSmiliesPaintedOnYourSoul: The typical self-imposed incubus method of emotion control - for the greater good. Cauchemaro just tends to be more intense with this than anyone else.
523* GodivaHair: A mess of wavy hair falling all the way down his back.
524%%* HiddenBadass
525%%* HouseHusband: Unmarried, but...point still stands.
526%%* InnocentFanserviceGirl: Guy, rather.
527%%* KindlyHousekeeper
528%%* LongHairedPrettyBoy
529* MeaningfulName: It means 'incubus' in French, but not as much as it means "nightmare". Needless to say, Cauchemaro is the farthest thing from a nightmare
530%%* NakedPeopleAreFunny
531* NiceJobBreakingItHero: His strength tends to go underestimated, leading him to break things if he gets too distracted.
532%%* PlayingWithFire
533* ReluctantMonster: His social class of incubus is at a level where he has a half-and-half possibility of going 'rogue,' or being puppeteered by instinct, and he's scared to death of the idea.
534** He was attacked by a rogue when he was younger, the memory of which cemented itself into his brain.
535%%* SociallyAwkwardHero
536%%* {{Stripperiffic}}

540
541[[folder: Delmonico]]
542!! Delmonico
543
544Del is one of the eldest members of the incubi clan working for Vyers. Older and fairly wiser than his inexperienced young relatives, he falls slightly more into the SuccubiAndIncubi category than the rest, in that he's a cunning and persuasive seducer capable of charming men and women alike.
545
546However, beyond that, he's kind and highly protective of his underlings, acting as sort of an older brother figure to them. He's also deeply respectful towards Vyers, frequently consulting him for advice. His level-headed and patient nature has lead him to become something of a second-in-command for Vyers, a role that he holds in high esteem. He is Cauchemaro's actual older brother.
547
548!!! Tropes:
549
550* BattleButler: Much like his 'brothers', Del is extremely loyal to his employer, and will stop at nothing to defend him.
551%%* BerserkButton: God help the person who harms his vegetable garden.
552%%** Can also be applied to anyone who makes Cauchemaro upset.
553%%* BewareTheNiceOnes
554* TheBigGuy: Easily the tallest and most well-built of the incubi.
555%%* CantHoldHisLiquor
556%%* CoolOldGuy: Well, old compared to the other incubi.
557%%* AFatherToHisMen
558%%* HeroicBuild
559%%* HotMenAtWork: Has a tendency towards this due to his passion for gardening.

568[[folder: Ariadne]]
569!! Ariadne
570
571!!! Tropes:
572
573* AntiquatedLinguistics: Her speech pattern is very polite and old-fashioned, speaking like a cross between a Medieval knight and a character out of an old samurai movie.
574%%* BadassLongcoat
575* BlackEyesOfCrazy: When taken over completely by Enoch.
576* BodyAndHost: Possessed by the denizen Enoch.
577* CannotTalkToWomen: Gender-flipped. She considers any attractive man she stumbles across a threat to her vows of chastity and is terrified of them as a result, as witnessed in her interactions with Vyers and the incubi.
578* CuteLittleFangs: Growing them as her transformation into a demon continues.
579%%* GlassCannon
580* HellBentForLeather: Sports a very nice leather catsuit under her robes. It's standard-issue for both genders in the Holy Order.
581%%* HonorBeforeReason
582%%* IaijutsuPractitioner
583* KnightTemplar: Started out as one. Her possession by Enoch and time spent with demons has mellowed her out a little.
584* MeaningfulName: Translates roughly to "holy woman" -- fitting, considering her profession.
585* NinjaMaid: Becomes one of sorts to Adon, though she's not actually a 'maid'.
586%%* NoSenseOfHumor
587* NoSocialSkills: Due to spending most of her life in a monastery, she's pretty socially awkward.
588%%* TomboyishPonytail
589%%* WarriorMonk
590%%* YouthfulFreckles

592
593[[folder: Ainoire]]
594!! Ainoire
595
596!!! Tropes:
597
598* ApologeticAttacker: Takes this to the next level by apologizing while he's about to sacrifice Adon and his friends.
599%%* BadassLongcoat
600* CameBackWrong: Arguably. There's debate to whether his choice to serve Vindaego was purely born of misguided free will, or if he went partially crazy upon returning to life.
601* GlasgowGrin: Has one leftover from his assault and murder by thieves.
602%%* LongHairedPrettyBoy
603%%* HellBentForLeather
604* IncorruptiblePurePureness: Horribly subverted. While he initially comes off as this, it turns out that he's already been corrupted for a while -- his resurrection and assumed debt at the hands of an unknown god drove him to attempt to sacrifice a child, along with the child's companions and brother.
605%%* ParentalSubstitute: To Ariadne.
606* TheStarscream: To Adon and company, but Ariadne in particular, after he reveals his loyalties to a god that turns out to be Vindaego.
607%%* TragicVillain
608[[/folder]]
609
610[[folder: Scarlet]]
611!! Scarlet Infernus
612
613!!! Tropes:
614
615* BadBoss: Beats up and threatens her father's own men for fun.
616* BattleBallgown: Her normal clothing consists of a PimpedOutDress with a breast plate and a few pieces of leg armor, despite repeated assertions that she's a {{Tomboy}}.
617%%* Bratty Teenage Daughter
618* BoisterousWeakling: Claims to love a good fight, rebels to an excessive and seemingly pointless degree, terrorizes her father's much weaker men...And gets her ass kicked by every other challenger, including seemingly frail Alessa.
619%%* DaddysGirl
620%%* DirtyCoward
621%%* DistaffCounterpart: She's basically Akimoto 2.0 with an XX chromosome.
622%%* EnfantTerrible
623%%* FauxActionGirl
624%%* GenerationXerox
625%%* HairTriggerTemper
626* InformedAbility: Her skills as a warrior. Outside of her pummeling a couple of her father's paid {{Mook}}s, her actual battle abilities are pretty lackluster.
627%%* {{Jerkass}}
628%%* LikeFatherLikeSon: To an almost nauseating degree with Akimoto.
629%%* MilesGloriosus
630%%* RebelliousSpirit
631* RoyalBrat: Well, not royal, but technically still counts; she uses her father's name to justify her actions and bolster her ego.
632%%* SmallNameBigEgo
633%%* UnknownRival: To Alessa, much to Scarlet's immense chagrin.

643* ExtremeDoormat: Frequently enables his domineering and bratty sister, as his advice is shot down or ignored nine times out of ten.
644%%* {{Fashionista}}
645* InTheHood: Typically wears a hooded jacket.
646%%* {{Jerkass}}: Of a more subtle variety than his sister.

687%%* TheNapoleon
