Due to its collection-based mechanics, it's no surprise that Chain Chronicle has a whole lot of colorful characters populating its setting. As of the game's most recent version, there are around 250 named Arcana, representing the people you can actually recruit into your team. Beware of unmarked spoilers ahead.
Important Editor's Notes: The sheets below reflect the available Arcana in the Global version of the game. The original Japanese version has much much more characters, which is further inflated with tie-ins with other video game or print franchises such as the Atelier Series, Log Horizon, Maoyu, or Danganronpa.
