[[folder: Protagonists]]
!! CastCalculus
Going from a single hero to an ensemble of seven and having nine different characters in the party, Legend of Dragoon runs the gamut of Ensemble tropes:
* ThreeAmigos: Dart, Lavitz and Shana
** WithAFriendAndAStranger: Shaken up a bit in that it's a guy from out of nowhere and the childhood friend is the MysteriousWaif. Played fully straight when Rose joins.
** KnightKnaveAndSquire: Lavitz, Dart and Shana form a toned down version with Lavitz as the Knight, Dart being the Knave and Shana as the Squire. When Rose joins as she takes over the Knave position and Dart switches roles to the Squire. This dynamic is especially noticeable when [[spoiler: Shana is poisoned, leaving the others without her.]]
* FourPhilosophyEnsemble
** The Realist: Dart
** The Optimist: Lavitz. His optimism regarding defending Basil is contrasted with Rose's cynicism.
** TheCynic: Rose.
** The Conflicted: Shana. Relies on Dart for guidance. Her youth and [[[ProperLady "traditional" womanliness]] is also contrasted with Rose.
** The Apathetic: Haschel. Pretty much goes with the flow until the group switches to a FiveManBand
** FreudianTrio: Dart, Lavitz and Rose as TheKirk, TheMcCoy and TheSpock respectively. Like the KnightKnaveAndSquire dynamic, this is more noticeable [[spoiler: when Shana is poisoned.]]
* FiveManBand
** TheHero: Dart
*** wears red, uses a sword, team leader
** TheLancer: Rose
*** more cynical than Dart, more experienced and uses a rapier instead of a broad sword.
** TheBigGuy: Haschel
*** The strongest of the group
** TheSmartGuy: Albert
*** thinks about plot developments and plans the group's next move.
** TheChick: Shana
*** [[TheHeart compassionate in the ways the others are not.]]
* TheMagnificentSevenSamurai
** TheHero: Dart
** TheLancer: Rose
** TheBigGuy: Kongol
** TheSmartGuy: Albert
** [[TheObiWan The Old Guy]]: Haschel
** [[NaiveNewcomer The Young Guy]]: Shana in terms of personality, later Miranda in terms of familiarity with the plot
** [[PluckyComicRelief The Funny Guy]]: Meru


!! Dart Feld
[[quoteright:234:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lod_dart_4641.jpg]]

!!!!!!Voiced by TomokazuSeki in Japanese and John Butterfield in English

->''"Revenge does not generate anything." That's what I learned from Lavitz. To tell the truth, I don't know what I am going to do or even what I want to do when I face the Black Monster. I just want to know what he is."''

Survivor of the Black Monster's destruction of Neet, Dart returns from a trip WalkingTheEarth to find his adopted home of Seles razed and his childhood friend Shana kidnapped. The quest to rescue Shana and make the responsible parties pay will extend his journey to take vengeance against the Black Monster further than he could possibly comprehend.

Wielder of the Red-Eyed Dragoon Spirit, which awakens from within his father's prized jewel during the climax of the party's first clash with Kongol. [[spoiler:Later inherits the Divine Dragoon Spirit from Lloyd at the very end.]]

* CelibateHero: For the first two discs.
* CoupDeGraceCutscene: Subverted about half the time, including the first two times.
* DiscardAndDraw: Dart loses the Red-Eyed Spirit in the endgame, only to gain an EleventhHourSuperpower (see below).
* DoomedHometown: Dart attracts fire ([[PlayingWithFire no pun intended]]) like honey attracts bees. Not only is Seles burned at the beginning of the game, but his birthplace of Neet was torched by the Black Monster 18 years prior. He's one of only three known survivors.
* EleventhHourSuperpower: Dart's use of the [[spoiler:Divine Dragoon Spirit]] happens just in time for the FinalBoss.
* FashionableAsymmetry
* TheHero
* HeroesPreferSwords
* JackOfAllStats: All his stats are perfectly average, with the exception of his above-average HP.
* LawOfChromaticSuperiority
* MementoMacGuffin: His father's memento is actually the Red Eyed Dragoon crystal.
* ParentalAbandonment: Both of Dart's parents were killed trying to save their home village of Neet from the Black Monster. [[spoiler: His dad his NotQuiteDead but does this again at the very end.]]
* PinballProtagonist: Never really figures things out until the end. He's just in 'protect Shana' mode and this informs all his decisions.
* PlayingWithFire
* SayMyName: "[[{{Narm}} Laaaaaviiiiiiiitz!!]]"
* ShonenHair
* [[spoiler: SwordAndGun: As the Divine Dragoon]]
* WalkingTheEarth: What he's been doing prior to the beginning of the game

!! Lavitz Slambert
[[quoteright:175:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lavitz_5671.jpg]]

!!!!!!Voiced by Kazuhiro Oguro in Japanese and Mike Marx in English

->''This is what I saw everyday when I was young. I grew up thinking... "I'll be an admired knight just like my father and I'll protect this country!" [...] The reality was much harder than I imagined back then. I feel all the more strongly how great my father was. To protect this country I would tear the flesh from my body.''

Knight of Basil and prisoner of Sandora's Hellena compound, at least until Dart rescues him in the midst of his strike to save Shana. Together, they escape to the Kingdom of Basil and assist in its defense at the fortress city of Hoax.

Wielder of the Jade Dragoon Spirit, won from Greham, the man who killed Lavitz's father during the initial schism that split Serdio into Basil and Sandora. [[spoiler:Killed by Lloyd while saving King Albert from Hellena, and his soul imprisoned in the Winglies' Death City Mayfil due to his ties to the world of the living.]]

* AwesomeMcCoolName
* BladeOnAStick
* BlowYouAway
* [[spoiler: DeadStarWalking]]
* [[spoiler: HeroicSacrifice (Even in death)]]
* [[spoiler: KilledOffForReal]]
* KnightInShiningArmor
* TheLancer: uses a spear to Dart's sword. More confident and lawful than the emotional Dart.
* MightyGlacier: Though he quickly becomes a GlassCannon in magic-heavy boss fights.
* MilitaryBrat
* [[spoiler:OnlyMostlyDead]]
* PetalPower: A couple of his dragoon spells, especially the aptly-named Blossom Storm.
* RazorWind
* [[spoiler: SacrificialLion]]
* YouKilledMyFather: His showdown with the traitorous Greham.

!! Shana
[[quoteright:175:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/shana_5998.jpg]]

!!!!!!Voiced by AkemiOkamura in Japanese and Donna Mae Wong in English

->''"I can walk next to Dart. I have been working towards that. There is nothing we can do about the time we were apart, but I want to be with you forever!"''

Dart's childhood friend and [[SheIsNotMyGirlfriend honestly not-girlfriend]]. Isn't particularly sure why Sandoran forces kidnapped her during the invasion of Seles. [[spoiler:It's probably because she's the Moon Child, but more on that in Rose's spoiler data.]]

After being poisoned by the Green-Tusked Dragon Feyrbrand, she is healed with the [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment White Silver]] Dragoon Spirit and subsequently inherits its power. [[spoiler:And then she loses it following the Divine Dragon's attack on Deningrad, gets directly kidnapped by "Emperor Diaz", and so on.]]

* [[spoiler: ApocalypseMaiden: Shana's soul is the God of Destruction]].
* TheArcher
* BareYourMidriff: In Dragoon form.
* TheChick: The feminine and compassionate one.
* CombatMedic
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: As the White Dragoon spirit, she can remain almost ''permanently'' in Dragoon Form...and her Dragoon summon is, without a doubt, the best in the game. A suitable reward for putting up with someone who can't combo, is outdamaged by the other SquishyWizard's phsyical attacks and is also a SquishyWizard herself.
* DamselInDistress: Kidnapped in Disc 3, and held in Damsel Perpetuity until the ending.
* DefenseMechanismSuperpower: On occasion, when her life is endangered, she instinctively manifests a glowing halo of power that can destroy her enemies or protect her allies. [[spoiler: It turns out that this is actually one of the powers of the Moon Child.]]
* [[spoiler: EverythingsBetterWithPrincesses: She's the daughter of the Queen of Mille Seseau. Neither she nor her birth mother knows and this isn't resolved at all, with the ending showing her back in Seles.]]
* FriendToAllLivingThings
* HolyHandGrenade: Not all her powers are healing.
* LightEmUp: Holy Dragoon powers.
* [[spoiler: LightIsNotGood: True, Shana herself is perfectly innocent, but as the Moon Child, she's destined to destroy the entire world.]]
* [[spoiler: MacGuffinGirl: She's the Moon child]]
* MagikarpPower: Starts off completely useless but becomes one of the most useful characters in the game once she hits Dragoon Level 5.
* NamesTheSame: [[ShakuganNoShana She's not the flame haze]]
* OutOfClothesExperience: Her Dragoon transformation.
* ProperLady: Polite, kind, wholesome etc.
* [[spoiler: SeparatedAtBirth / SwitchedAtBirth: The Black Monster was sent to kill Shana as a baby but accidentally killed her twin, which is how the Moon Child managed to survive to adulthood.]]
* SheCleansUpNicely: Shana wears a ballgown at the end of the second disc. Dart is floored.
* SheIsAllGrownUp: Played with in that Shana wants Dart to think of her differently because of this but Dart still thinks of them LikeBrotherAndSister. Resolved about halfway through the game.
* SquishyWizard
* TrickArrow: Many later weapon upgrades.
* [[spoiler: VictoriousChildhoodFriend]]
* WomanInWhite

!! Rose
[[quoteright:175:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lod_rose_2708.jpg]]

!!!!!!Voiced by YumiTouma in Japanese and Awele Makeba in English

->''War is not in human nature. Humans fight by making themselves enter insanity. It is...the same for revenge. This is a tool to amplify the insanity. And this insanity is the source of the power of Dragoons, the Dragon Knight. Someday, something will happen, and if you cannot chasten your insanity, I wonder if you will be able to endure it, given the size of your spirit?''

A wandering warrior who saves Dart from Feyrbrand during his journey home to Seles, and later shows up to help awaken and train his Dragoon Spirit, seeing as how she wields the Darkness one herself. Her knowledge of the Dragon Campaign of 11,000 years ago becomes dangerously relevant to the civil war in Serdio and the machinations of its puppetmasters. [[spoiler:Said knowledge is firsthand, and she's been spending a good chunk of the eleven-millenia gap killing Moon Children under the guise of the Black Monster, ensuring that the world never experiences the "holy bliss" that a Moon Child would bestow.]]

* ActionGirl
* [[BadPowersGoodPeople Bad Powers Complicated People]]: She has moves called Death Dimension and Demon's Gate, but she's a pretty good person [[spoiler: who occasionally goes on a massive killing spree to keep the world safe]].
* BrokenBird: [[spoiler: her lover was petrified, her friends died one after another, and she had to [[ShootTheDog kill innocent people for thousands of years to keep the world safe]].]] Rose is very, ''very'' broken.
* CastingAShadow
* CoolSword: They don't come much cooler than that.
* CrutchCharacter: Rose will pretty much carry the party through the first disc and remain decent in the second but her poor stat progression and Dragoon magic leaves her near-useless in the last half of the game once she gets outclassed by everyone. It's only the InfinityPlusOneSword that keeps her viable for the FinalBoss.
* DanceBattler: Some of her combos even sound like dance names.
* DarkIsNotEvil
* DarkMagicalGirl
* DeadpanSnarker
* DefrostingIceQueen: [[spoiler: To be fair though, being a mass murderer every 108 years has to do things to you]].
* EasilyForgiven: Rose [[spoiler:has killed untold numbers of people throughout the generations to prevent the Moon Child from coming about, and Zieg makes sure everyone in the party knows about it at the end of the third disc.]] Apart from a swordfight with [[spoiler: Dart]] to resolve the pent-up anger, the party very readily forgave Rose for this. Rose herself was surprised at this treatment, but everyone accepted that [[ShootTheDog she did what]] [[IDidWhatIHadToDo had to be done]].
** And they flat out let her go for it when they realized [[spoiler:killing Shana]] might be for the best.
* FloralThemeNaming
* GlassCannon: Her defenses are meh, and her HP is awful for a physically oriented character. Nevertheless, her attacks hit ''hard''.
* [[spoiler: GoOutWithASmile]]
* HotChickWithASword
* [[spoiler: ImmortalityInducer: The magical choker she wears is the source of her immortality.]]
* LadyOfWar
* TheLancer: From disc 2 onwards and especially in the last two.
* MsExposition: Gives Dart (and us) an outline of the Dragoon/Wingly war.
* MysteriousWaif: A mysterious woman that comes out of nowhere and knows more than anyone else about what's going on.
* NecessarilyEvil: [[spoiler: As the Black Monster]].
* [[spoiler: NiceJobBreakingItHerod: Note that it's Rose's failure to kill off the real Moon Child]] that sets off the events of the entire game.
* ObfuscatingStupidity: One of the few times she doesn't almost blow her cover, it's because [[spoiler:she immediately knows Meru is a Wingly, and it's not at a good time to mention that]].
* TheObiWan: Mysterious? Check. Part of the [[spoiler: old order]]? Check. Teaches mystic powers to TheHero? Check. [[spoiler: MentorOccupationalHazard? Check.]]
* [[spoiler: [[ReallySevenHundredYearsOld Really Eleven Thousand Plus Years Old]]]]
* RebelRelaxation
* ShellShockedVeteran
* SixthRanger: In Disc 1.
* SugarAndIcePersonality: Rose can be extremely cold and downright merciless at times, but with a lot of patience and effort, she can show a certain degree of affection - usually to Dart.
* TallDarkAndBishoujo
* [[spoiler: TimeAbyss: Rose has been alive for over ''eleven '''thousand''' years.'' She's seen the rise and fall of countless empires, associated with creatures now considered to be myths, and she's made it her mission in life to assassinate the supposed Messiah every century.]]
* [[spoiler: TogetherInDeath: With Zieg]]
* TheTragicRose: Once you've finished the game, step back and take a good hard look at everything that Rose has been through in her life.
* UselessUsefulSpell: Astral Drain would be awesome if it dealt (and therefore healed) more damage. Demon's Gate is only useful in random battles, which no sane person will use Dragoons in anyway.
* [[spoiler: WhoWantsToLiveForever]]
* WomanInBlack
* ZenSurvivor
* ZettaiRyouiki: Only her left.

!!Haschel
[[quoteright:140:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/haschel_7952.jpg]]

!!!!!!Voiced by Minoru Inaba in Japanese and Brian Vouglas in English

->''It's been 20 years since I left the village pursuing Claire, but what I have found was only my immaturity.''

Martial Arts master from the [[{{Wutai}} isolated island village of Rouge]], who joins Dart and pals to take a bit of a break from his own search for his missing daughter Claire. This winds up being a shock to Dart, as Claire was also his mother's name, and the lullaby Dart taught Shana originated from Rouge. [[spoiler:Of course, ThereAreNoCoincidences.]]

Wields the Thunder Dragoon Spirit after inheriting it from [[spoiler:Doel]].

* BadassGrandpa: [[spoiler: Dart's, in fact. Though he keeps this a secret from Dart once he figures this out]].
* BareFistedMonk: In terms of appearance, anyway.
* TheBigGuy: Physically average in stature but he gets a few moments to remind everyone that he is a powerful martial arts master, including one where [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome he cracks a massive stone circle to dust with one punch.]]
* DirtyOldMan: A rather innocent example, but it's definitely still there.
* FingerlessGloves
* LightningBruiser: Both stat-wise and literally, of a fast hard hitter variants, but he has a decent defense as well. [[spoiler:It's not a coincidence that he and Dart are well balanced.]]
* TheMaster: Now an OldMaster.
* ThemeNaming : His addition refers to numbers, and add the exact same number of hits -1 to fit the number of hits with the number it represents. The weird exception is Flurry of Styx (which might or might not be referring to three) and Hex Hammer (which adds 6 hits, totalling into 7 attack)
** In the Japanese version, Flurry/Ferry of Styx (the English version is inconsistent on what it's called) is referred to as 三途の渡し　(Sanzu no Watashi), with "Sanzu" being the Japanese name for Styx. "San" (三) is also Japanese for "three" which fits his number theme. Ferry of Styx makes sense, even though it loses the number theme. Don't even ask where "flurry" came from...
* MyGreatestFailure: His daughter accidentally killed a fellow student during a sparring session, under ''his'' watch, after being insulted by him, and then ran away from home.
* PowerFist
* ShockAndAwe: After gaining the Thunder Dragoon Spirit. Probably one of the main reasons he doesn't fall behind stat-wise, as Thunder has no [[ElementalRockPaperScissors counter-element]].
* TeamDad: Rose is too jaded to keep this bunch in line.
* WalkingTheEarth: In search of his runaway daughter.
* WellDoneSonGuy: Claire was the sole heir to the Rouge School of Martial Arts. As such, Haschel pushed her harder than any of his other students.

!! Albert
[[quoteright:156:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/albert_6676.jpg]]

!!!!!!Voiced by ShinichiroMiki in Japanese and David Babich in English

->''It reminds me of what Lavitz happily told me about you. That he had met "guys he could finally call friends." Now, I understand why.''

King of Basil and regular sparring partner to Lavitz, he joins Dart's merry band following Sandoran forces' extraction of the Moon Gem from his body [[spoiler:and also that whole "Lavitz dying" thing]]. Smitten with Princess Emille of Tiberoa, and spends a good chunk of Disc 2 shocked at her newfound rashness of attitude. [[spoiler:He's only slightly less shocked that Emille was impersonated the whole time by Lenus, pulling the LongCon for Lloyd]].

Wields [[spoiler:the Jade Dragoon Spirit.]]

* AChildShallLeadThem: Albert inherited the throne when he was only six. It's the reason Doel split the country in two.
* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: Like Lavitz UpToEleven and the knight's liege lord.
* AwesomeButPractical: The Rose Storm spell. It halves damage for three turns and won't break the mana meter.
* BadassBookworm / CulturedBadass: Definitely the most polished member of the team, not to mention the most formal.
* BladeOnAStick
* BlowYouAway
* BunnyEarsLawyer: There's no sugar-coating it, Albert is a nerd, and his royal upbringing means his ability to blend into a crowd leaves a bit to be desired. Good thing he can tear through enemy lines with his trusty blade on a stick and has memorized entire libraries.
* KingIncognito: Albert tries to adopt this persona once he joins the party, but the disguise never seems to last very long.
* [[MacGuffinGirl MacGuffin Guy]]: The Moon Gem's inside his body.
* RazorWind
* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: The brains behind Basil's war effort and later joins the party.
* SpamAttack: Albert's Additions are the QTE version of a 6-year-old with ADHD on a sugar rush.
* TheSmartGuy: You'd think he'd be a Lancer but he gladly defers to Rose in that role and simply doesn't have the same dynamic with Dart that Lavitz did. On the other hand, we are reminded often that Albert has a hard-on for books.
* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: To Lavitz. Thankfully he's not quite like the other SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute.


!! Meru
[[quoteright:175:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/meru_7820.jpg]]

!!!!!!Voiced by TomokoKawakami in Japanese and Lucy Kee in English

->''Hey you, alky! How dare you touch my butt!''

The best dancer in the Tiberoan village of Donau, she joins Dart and the gang to help free the kingdom from the clutches of the Gehrich Gang. Her perky exterior hides the fact that [[spoiler:the Winglies of Mille Seseau are royally cheesed off at her leaving their HiddenElfVillage to prove the two races can heal their wounds from the Dragon Campaign]].

Wields the Blue Sea Dragoon Spirit after putting an end to [[spoiler:Lenus]].

* ActionGirl
* AnIcePerson
* AgeInappropriateDress: Although Meru is older than she looks if you meet her fiancé in the Wingly Forest.
* AwesomeButImpractical: If you use the special command to initiate either her Plane Shift or Dart's, it weakens the other's attacks and magic because you cannot remove Dart from the party.
** AwesomeYetPractical : On the other hand, she is ridiculously fast, and has ridiculously powerful spells, combined with second highest magic stats, far making up for the weakened Dart.
* DanceBattler
* DropTheHammer
* FragileSpeedster -> GlassCannon and LightningBruiser once her last Addition is maxed out. She's most ''definitely'' the fastest character in the game, regularly getting ''two'' attacks before most people get ''one''.
* {{Foreshadowing}}: This essentially is a ReplayBonus moreso, but you'll notice that [[spoiler: when everyone is surprised Lenus is flying away, she points at Meru. Then when Lenus dies in the cutscene, for some reason, Dart, Shana, and ''MERU'' are shown, with emphasis on Meru's emotions during the scene.]] See also HairColorSpoiler.
* GameplayAndStoryIntegration: Try having Meru use a magic item...you'll notice it deals ''way'' more damage.
* GenkiGirl: The world will end before she runs out of energy.
* GiantWaistRibbon
* HairColorSpoiler [[spoiler: Do you see any humans with blue hair?]]
* JustAKid: How everyone treats her. Not that she helps matters by acting like a tween with a schoolgirl crush.
* {{Kawaiiko}}: Older than she looks but acts younger than she is.
* MagikarpPower : Not as bad as Shana, but despite her massive speed, she starts with a weak addition for several levels, potentially the last character to gain her Dragoon, and weak defense. Properly trained and set up, she become a complete GameBreaker, capable of killing bosses before they get a single turn, dealing massive damage like it was nothing, and becomes the strongest physical party member with only Haschel being capable of outdoing her physical damage output. Not to mention that her Dragoon form is the most versatile, having both a healing move and a spell for every situation. And in case you forgot, she is also the one with highest speed.
* MakingASplash
* MsFanservice
* [[OlderThanTheyLook Older Than She Looks]]
* [[WhiteHairedPrettyGirl Platinum Haired Pretty Girl]]
* [[spoiler: PowerGivesYouWings: In addition to her Dragoon wings, she grows wings when she tries to use Wingly magic.]]
* TheRedMage: Learns healing magic and can actually deal some nice damage.
* {{Stripperific}}
* SquishyWizard: [[spoiler: Which is kind of ironic because by Wingly standards Meru is a terrible magician; in fact, by the ancient standards of magic held by Zenebatos, she can't even qualify as a real Wingly at all.]]
* TagAlongKid
* TokenHeroicOrc: Of all the [[spoiler: winglies]] the party meets, she's the only helpful one.
* TheUnfavorite: It's clear her entire village thinks she's a disappointment, to say nothing of her parents.
* [[spoiler: WingedHumanoid]]
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair

!! Kongol
[[quoteright:175:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kongol_9362.jpg]]

!!!!!!Voiced by Masashi Sugawara Japanese and Ernie Fosselius in English

->''Emperor Doel say he make world where every species equal. World needs strong leader. Whether you can be leader, Kongol will watch to the end. Giganto's sadness should not be repeated....''

Last of the Giganto species and one of Emperor Doel's trump cards in the civil war in Serdio. After being bested by Dart and his entourage twice, however, his honor as a ProudWarriorRaceGuy leads him to join the team as they liberate the Gigantos' ancestral home from the Gehrich Gang.

Canonically the last to gain a Dragoon Spirit, inheriting the Golden spirit from [[spoiler:the memory of his brother within the Moon That Never Sets]]; although the player can acquire it earlier with a little backtracking to the merchant city Lohan (as hinted by an easily missed NPC in Donau).

* AnAxeToGrind
* TheBrute --> TheBigGuy
* CharlesAtlasSuperPower: He ''is'' a giganato but he does a lot more damage with his bare hands than a blade.
* [[DeadLittleSister Dead Older Brother]]
* DefeatMeansFriendship
* DishingOutDirt
* FacialMarkings
* TheGiant: Clocking in at 8'3"
** GentleGiant: After his HeelFaceTurn
* HeelFaceTurn
* LastOfHisKind: On the continent of Endiness, anyway. Come on people, we have a whole planet to search!
* MightyGlacier: Highest HP, highest physical defense, and close to the highest attack strength.
* NoIndoorVoice
* OutOfFocus: While his motivations for joining and his loyalty to Doel are both explained, relative to the rest of the party he's pretty much along for the ride. He admits as much when he joins up.
* ProudWarriorRaceGuy: Everything for him is about the honor of the Giganto.
* ScreamingWarrior
* WalkingShirtlessScene
* YouNoTakeCandle

!! Miranda
[[quoteright:207:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/207px-MirandaX_8273.jpg]]

!!!!!!Voiced by YokoSoumi in Japanese and Mo Mellady in English

->''Don't misread me. Roses make me puke. They are just flashy. They don't have any kindness in them. Do you know why roses have thorns? It is to bring out their own red using the blood of the people they hurt. They'll do anything for their own happiness.''

First Sacred Sister of Mille Seseau and a particularly headstrong retainer of that nation's queen. Following [[spoiler:the Divine Dragon wrecking Deningrad and much of the army being wiped out in the process]], she is assigned to Dart's group to assist in their counterattack.

Wields the White Silver Dragoon Spirit, since [[spoiler:it got knocked away from Shana when the Divine Dragon broke one of the Wingly signets holding the Moon That Never Sets in the sky]].

* AbuseIsOkayWhenItIsFemaleOnMale: Miranda seems incapable of not punching everyone she sees. One of them was an officier and no one said a word.
* ActionGirl
* AntiHeroSubstitute: [[spoiler: Replaces Shana and is her opposite in personality.]]
* TheArcher
* AuthorityEqualsAssKicking: After the queen she's the highest ranking person in the country.
* CombatMedic
* CoolBigSis
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: As the white dragoon, she appears to be stuck behind everyone else. However, as the white dragoon, you can keep her almost ''permanently'' in dragoon-form and the dragon summon is undoubtedly the best in the game.
* FourStarBadass: Seems to be in charge of the Mille Seseau military based on what happens in Deningrad.
* GoodIsNotNice: Despite belonging to the holy order of Denigrad, she is a definite hardass.
* HappilyAdopted
* HolyHandGrenade
* LadyOfWar
* LightEmUp
* OutOfFocus: One of the reasons Miranda is seen as TheScrappy. While most characters do get their focus, Miranda and Kongol just seem to be along for the ride. Miranda in particular doesn't show up until midway through the third disc, leaving little time for character development. The problem is, at that point in the game, the plot's already on full-stop and Miranda gets left in the shadows, having only a few scenes.
* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: Technically adopted, but officially she's the Queen's daughter and one of the kingdom's highest ranking generals.
* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: Gameplaywise, she is the exact same as Shana.
* SixthRanger
* TrickArrow
* {{Tsundere}}: Odd in that its not for a love interest but her country. She loves her countrymen but is often hostile to them.
* ZettaiRyouiki: Just a couple pigtails away from the highest rank.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: Antagonists]]

* StandardEvilEmpireHierarchy: First disc only.
** TheEmperor: Doel
** The Right Hand: Kongol
** The General: The nameless Sandora Commander
** The Guard: Fruegal
** The EvilCounterpart: Greham
** TheManBehindTheMan: Lloyd
* TokenGoodTeammate: The afore-mentioned Sandora Commander; whereas the others mentioned here are, for the most part, various shades of AxCrazy and megalomaniacal, he's only it because of MyMasterRightOrWrong. Sure, he leads the attack against [[DoomedHometown Seles]] in the opening movie, but it soon becomes apparent that the wanton destruction that occurred there was entirely down to [[AxCrazy Freugal]]; he just captured Shana, as ordered, and got out. Later, when the player actually meets him, [[spoiler: he makes no attempt to fight the heroes, and instead implores them to remind Doel of the reasonable man he once was, even going so far as to give them one of the key items needed to access Doel's throne room.]]

!! Fruegel
->''The red one!? I'll get you!! I might as well dye everything else red with your blood!!''

The head warden of Hellena Prison, feared for his immense size and superhuman ability he displays in battle. Fruegel was given the order from Emperor Doel to obtain Shana from the small outlying village known as Seles. Emperor Doel himself does not know the importance of the girl, he was following an outside influence. Fruegel, sadistic as he was, was not content in only taking the girl and ordered that the village to be destroyed, as well.

* AxCrazy: He even plans on [[CutHisHeartOutWithASpoon painting the walls of Hellena with Dart's blood]].
* BadBoss: Anyone unlucky enough to be in range of one of his tantrums (friend or foe) is thrown from a steep height to their death.
* TheBrute: Very big, very strong... not very smart.
* CarryABigStick
* DishingOutDirt: He has the Earth element and can hurl large boulders at you.
* FatBastard: Has a huge belly which not even his uniform can disguise.
* FlunkyBoss: The first time you battle him, he's escorted by two guards and when they're killed he summons two more guardians. The second time he's followed by his pets [[FeatheredFiend Rodrigo]] and [[{{HellHound}} Guftas]].
* LargeAndInCharge: He's a veritable behemoth.
* ObviouslyEvil
* OurOgresAreHungrier: He looks more like a ogre than a human.
* SkeletonsInTheCoatCloset
* RightHandAttackDog: His demonic dog Guftas, who assists in battle.

!! Greham
->''Nobody could be stronger than your father. That was the only thing I could never conquer. I had...admiration for him, as a mate...and as a friend. But time goes by and it turned into this feeling.... This fear, from realizing the limits of your ability.... This fear...that goes nowhere. The only thing you can do is curse yourself for weakness....''

Once the commander of the Second Knighthood of Basil, Greham was the right-hand man and closest friend to Lavitz's father Servi. Over the years, Greham became jealous of Servi's ability, his desire to better himself turning into a desperate attempt to best Servi as a warrior. Greham defected to Sandora where he received the power of the Jade Dragoon Spirit and used it to murder Servi.

->''You remind me of...Carlo, 20 years ago. A bloodstained corpse in front of me....''

Ruler of the southern part of Serdio, which broke from Basil to become Imperial Sandora following the death (read: murder) of Albert's father Carlo. Doel claims to be fighting to create a world where all creatures may live in peace - by any means necessary. However, for the past few years, he's been content to operate under the truce between Basil and Sandora without actively pursuing his goals... up until he discovered the power of dragons, with Lloyd's help, of course. Doel is the primary antagonist of Chapter One, [[spoiler: and is revealed to be in possession of the Purple Dragon Orb]]. Late in the game, an apparition known as "Dark Doel" appears to test Albert's virtue.

* EvilIsNotWellLit: The aptly-named Black Castle. His throne room puts Palpatine to shame.
* EvilUncle: After King Carlo's death, Doel apparently wanted to be set up as RegentForLife since Albert was so young. When he didn't get his way, he started a civil war. Friendly guy!
* EvilVirtues: Doel keeps a gigantic statue of his late wife in his castle.
* [[spoiler: FaceDeathWithDignity: After being fatally wounded, he forces himself upright, squares his shoulders, and ultimately [[DiedStandingUp dies standing upright.]] For good measure, Albert salutes him.]]
* GeniusBruiser: As well as being an impressive swordsman [[spoiler: and a powerful Dragoon]], he's a shrewd tactician (even without Lloyd's help) and very happy to incorporate highly-advance MagiTek into his palace and personal defences.
* [[spoiler: GracefulLoser: In his final moments, Doel concedes that Albert has grown stronger in the years since they last met, and provides him with Lloyd's destination before finally dying.]]

* OrcusOnHisThrone: Doesn't do anything against anyone until they take the fight to him.
* PetTheDog: Taking in the young Kongol after his people were massacred.
* PoweredByAForsakenChild: The Black Castle is powered by purple flame, explicitly stated to originate from a Dragon... and there's a Dragon corpse in the basement of the castle being experimented on, which would account for the reason why Doel has no dragon of his own.
* PurpleIsPowerful: As a human, most of his colour scheme involves dark blues and purple; [[spoiler: as a Dragoon, well...]]

* ShockAndAwe: Even before [[spoiler: unleashing his Dragoon Spirit]], he can cast waves of purple lightning.
* SlouchOfVillainy

A Wingly bandit lovesick for Lloyd, she spends much of her screen time disguised as Princess Emille of Tiberoa, whom she and the Gehrich Gang had sealed inside a magical pocket dimension following a "convenient" horse accident. When directly challenged by the Dragoons, however, her rowdy side manifests in a frenzy of cesta attacks and ancient magic. After escaping the palace, she flees to Prison Island, where she's confronted a second time, this time [[spoiler: using the Blue Sea Dragoon Spirit and]] calling on the dragon Regole to help her.

An impossibly fast swordsman who bests Dart and Haschel in a tournament at the desert city of Lohan and then proceeds to take direct and indirect responsibility for the misfortunes that befall our heroes. The laundry list: [[spoiler:killing Lavitz, orchestrating Emperor Doel's strikes against Basil and Shana's initial capture, stealing the Moon Gem from Albert, hiring Lenus (and by proxy the Gehrich Gang) to steal the Moon Dagger, unsealing the Divine Dragon to steal the Moon Mirror AND break one of the ancient Wingly signets through raw power, and nabbing the Divine Dragoon Spirit for good measure]]. Despite being a Wingly, he claims to do all of this on the orders of Emperor Diaz, the human leader who emerged victorious from the Dragon Campaign 11,000 years ago.

!! Melbu Frahma
[[quoteright:275:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/melbufrahma_2345.jpg]]
!!!!!!Voiced by AkioOhtsuka in Japanese and David Babich in English

->''I have acquired all. The immortality.... And the ultimate power.... I am the god...who purifies the world...! Under the fate determined by Soa. Death to those who rebel against fate. Death to all life...! And may your death bless the new world to which I shall descend!!''

Over 11,000 years ago, Melbu Frahma was the ruler of the Winglies and all of Endiness, renowned for both his power and his depravity. Frahma, according to the lore of present-day Winglies, was directly responsible for imposing on his people the genocidal directive of Wingly superiority over all other living creatures. These lesser beings had no right to live, he preached, and it was the mercy of the Winglies that suffered them as slaves.

To cement his role as all-powerful dictator, he kept the soul of the Virage Embryo in a Crystal Sphere, giving him immense magical power. His older sister, Charle, realizing the the threat Melbu posed, created five Signet Spheres to limit the power he could draw from it and keep the body of the Virage Embryo - known in layman's terms as "[[spoiler: The Moon That Never Sets]]" - floating in the sky. In retaliation, Melbu Frahma created Divine Moon Objects to destroy the spheres if need be.

However, he never had a chance to do so: the human slaves of his empire finally rebelled, leading to a war known afterwards as the Dragon Campaign. Led by Emperor Diaz and assisted by [[DefectorFromDecadence sympathetic Winglies]], the humans proved themselves too formidable for Frahma to easily defeat, especially when they began harnessing Dragons for war - creating the legendary Dragoons in the process. During the Dragoons' final attack on the Wingly Capital of Kadessa, Zieg, the bearer of the Red-Eyed Dragoon Spirit, defeated and killed Melbu - apparently at the cost of his own life. [[spoiler: Secretly, Melbu transmigrated his soul into Zieg's Red Dragoon Spirit, intending one day to arise and use the Virage Embryo's body and soul to attain a truly godlike power.]]

* TheArchmage: Thanks to the power of the Crystal Sphere, Frahma was arguably one of the most powerful magicians in all Endiness - especially once Faust died.
* AGodAmI: Believed himself to be a god [[spoiler: especially after taking the body of the Virge Embryo, which is essentially an unborn god.]]
* AuthorityEqualsAssKicking: Managed to put up quite a fight against Zeig before dying. [[spoiler: To say nothing of what happened once he took control of the Virage Embryo.]]

!!Shirley
The former owner of the White Silver Dragoon Spirit, died fighting a Super Virage during the battle of Kadessa. Her spirit is still bound to Earth and resides in a ruined shrine in the middle of Serdian mountains. She's trying to save the other Dragoons and will test Dart in order to see if he's worthy of the Dragoon spirit for Shana.

* TheArcher: Her former weapon.
* CombatMedic
* HairOfGold
* HopelessBossFight: If you [[SheatheYourSword don't take her test.]]
* LightEmUp
* MoralityChain: To Kanzas in the past and to [[LovableRogue Drake]] in the present.
* SecretTestOfCharacter: Her boss fight.
* UnfinishedBusiness: Her spirit will stay on earth as long as the other four Dragoons are trapped.
* WomanInWhite: Wears a white robe as a ghost.

!!Kanzas
The former owner of the Purple Dragoon Spirit, is a fierce and brutal martial artist who used to carve a doll for each killed opponent. His soul is bounded to Vellweb by his own bloodlust.

* AnimeHair: Looks like [[DragonBallZ Vegeta]]!
* AxCrazy: As mentioned above, his room is full of dolls, representing his victims.
* BloodKnight
* DeathEqualsRedemption: He repents for his bloody ways in his last moments.
* {{Foil}}: To Haschel. His bloodlust and love of killing contrasted with Haschel's dedication to fighting, making one wonder if one could have been like the other ForWantOfANail.
* LightningBruiser
* PowerFist
* ShockAndAwe
* TakingYouWithMe: How he died in the past. Namely, he [[ActionBomb self-destructed along with the head of a Super Virage]]. Bonus points for using this sentence as his FamousLastWords.
* TokenEvilTeammate: Only Shirley's presence could calm him.

!!Syuveig
The former Jade Dragoon, Syuveig is a wise scholar and researcher who's nonetheless afraid of the void of death, hence why he's ended up stuck in Vellweb.

* BadassBookworm: With glasses to boot.
* BladeOnAStick
* BlowYouAway
* {{Foil}}: Syuveig's bookishness highlights Albert's as well and shows the consequences of going overboard: he's become afraid of what he doesn't or can't know.
* MadScientist: It's implied from the contents of his room that he's been dissecting dragons in his studies.
* NothingIsScarier: He's seriously afraid of death and the afterlife, and with good reason; the Wingly city Mayfill automatically channels non-Wingly souls into hell.
* TheSmartGuy

!!Belzac
The Former Golden Dragoon, a huge warrior who was romantically linked to Shirley in life. His inability to accept her demise is what anchors him to Vellweb.

* AnAxeToGrind: His weapon.
* BigNo: Sort of. After Rose tells him the truth about Shirley he screams "I DON'T BELIEVE THIS!!" right before attacking you.
* BoisterousBruiser
* DishingOutDirt
* GentleGiant: He had a soft spot for children, ultimately fighting against the Winglies due to their enslavement of children.
* HeroicSacrifice: His last act was to try and save Shirley from the dual threat of an attacking Virage and a collapsing ceiling; though he managed to grab the ceiling in time, the only way he could stop the Virage was by [[TakingTheBullet getting impaled on its fingers]]. Sadly, Shirley refused to abandon Belzac, resulting in the Virage's next attack killing both of them.
* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: His last act was to suffer one of these from a Virage. Horrifically, it doesn't kill him immediately.
* LoveMakesYouCrazy
* SuperStrength: Much like Kongol, Belzac was immensely strong in life - a trait enhanced by his Dragoon powers - enough to lift the collapsing roof of a Wingly building, which looked like it weighed a few tons at the very least.
* TomatoInTheMirror: When you find him, he's under the impression that Shirley's still alive and the final battle is due to occur the next day. He even mistakes Dart for Zieg at first. Rose has to deliver the TomatoInTheMirror revelation to him, ultimately forcing him into a boss battle.

!!Damia
The former Blue Dragoon, Damia is a human-mermaid hybrid, and thus she was highly ostracized during her youth. Her only friends were her fellow Dragoons, and now she can't move on to the afterlife because she's afraid of being left alone.

* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: Subject to FantasticRacism because of her mermaid blood.

* HalfHumanHybrid: Half Mermaid. However, she does look perfectly human.
* IJustWantToHaveFriends: The reason why she's stuck.

[[folder: Winglies]]
!!Charle Frahma
Sister to the infamous Wingly Emperor, Charle was one of the few Winglies of her generation that sympathized with the humans her little brother oppressed. Throughout the Dragon Campaign, she and her partners-in-crime provided aid to the resistance, becoming friends to the Dragoons in the process. She even went so far as to personally sabotage Melbu's powers by creating the Divine Moon Objects. Even once her human allies had won the war, she continued assisting them - more specifically, the only surviving Dragoon: [[spoiler: Rose, the Darkness Dragoon.]] Early in the fourth disc, it's revealed that Charle was the Winglie who first learned of the threat that the [[spoiler: Moon Child and the Virage Embryo]] posed, and sent out [[spoiler: Rose - as the Black Monster -]] to stop them.

* CoolOldLady
* DefectorFromDecadence
* GenkiGirl
* HiddenElfVillage: Ulara, Charle's home, is one of the nicer examples of these.
* ImmortalImmaturity: To put it lightly, Charle tends to approach things with childish excitement, giving both Rose and [[spoiler: Zieg]] pet names, to the point that Rose actually has to step in and ask her to calm down.
* TimeAbyss: Charle is ''well'' over eleven thousand years old, having been alive long before the Dragon Campaign, and probably even before the Winglies first started oppressing humans.

!!Savan
A magician and researcher dwelling within the city of Aglis. During the Dragon Campaign, Aglis was shot down by human forces, sending it plummeting into the ocean; however, Savan was able to prevent the city's outright destruction by creating a barrier around it, holding in the oxygen and protecting it from flooding. As the only surviving Wingly in the area, Savan set himself the task of preserving as much magical knowledge as possible and defending Aglis' signet sphere from harm. However, over the milennia he spent researching the outside world through his scrying mirror, he came to sympathize with humans, [[spoiler: specifically, Rose]]. As such, when Dart and the others arrive in Aglis during the fourth disc, Savan is more than willing to help them.

* BaldOfAwesome
* CoolOldGuy
* CoolPet: Most of his [[{{Familiar}} Familiars]] function as this. There's also the Last Kraken, the guardian of the Signet Sphere, and Coolon, the GiantFlyer Savan gives to the heroes as an easier means of getting around the world map.
* CreatingLifeIsAwesome: Over the course of his exile, Savan created numerous life-forms to assist him in his research- and to prevent him from [[GoMadFromTheIsolation going mad from isolation.]] Both Savan and the creatures are depicted as entirely benevolent.
* DefectorFromDecadence
* [[spoiler: HeroicSacrifice: Teleports Dart and the others to safety while he tries to hold back the exploding Signet Sphere.]]
* MadScientist: A magical variant of this.
* MagicMirror: Savan uses a MagiTech variant of this to study the world outside Aglis.

* FrickinLaserBeams
* OurDragonsAreDifferent: It's hard to describe him, but he looks slightly more like a tradition Dragon, if not a wyvern.
* [[spoiler: PuzzleBoss: Rose has to tell to Dart what's his weakness, then they have to attack him exploiting said weakness.]]

!!The Divine Dragon

The seven-winged God of the Dragons, the Divine Dragon is the strongest living Dragon in Endiness. It was imprisoned by the ancient Winglies inside a giant volcano in Mille Sesau. However, during the third disc, he awakens from his slumber and escapes his prison to wreak havoc on the world.

* [[spoiler: BonusBoss: His ghost in Mayfil, who's also ThatOneBoss.]]
* ClimaxBoss: Of disk 3.
* CognizantLimbs: The "Divine Ball" and the "Divine Cannon". Destroying these will stop the dragon from casting his most dangerous attacks.
* DeathFromAbove: The Divine Ball Attack, which consist of a shower of energy blasts projected from his chest.

* ExtraEyes
* EyeScream: [[spoiler: After Dragon is finally defeated, Lloyd adds insult to injury by slicing into the largest of his eyes to remove the Dragoon Spirit.]]
* MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily
* OurDragonsAreDifferent: The Divine Dragon looks ''somewhat'' similar to the traditional dragon design, but it has seven wings, seven eyes (the largest of which is set on it's chin), and the nearest thing it has to dragon's breath is a WaveMotionGun projected from it's torso.
* PhysicalGod: Explicitly stated as such. [[spoiler: Considering that you only ''just'' manage to kill him because you have the right MacGuffin and because he was still recovering from a fight with Lloyd (who was wielding the Dragon Buster), that's not an exaggeration.]]
* RoarBeforeBeating: He tends to roar just before using the Divine Attack.

A mysterious demon who exists seemingly only to kill, the Black Monster has been slaughtering innocents for over eleven thousand years, his massacres coinciding with the birth of the Moon Child every one hundred and eight years - his victims often including the Moonchild as well. It's commonly believed that his mission in life is to prevent the Moon Child from cleansing the world, which would destroy him as well; of course, Dart has set out to kill the Monster long before this can happen, motivated by revenge for the destruction of Neet.

* WreathedInFlames: As a flashback reveals, the Black Monster's body is wreathed in black flames and smog.

!! The Moon Child

The prophesized saviour of Endiness, the Moon Child is born once in every one hundred and eight years; the Child's mission in life is to purify and restore the world with holy power, but in the past eleven thousand years, none of the Children have ever managed to complete this sacred quest, as every last one of them was murdered by the Black Monster before they had a chance to begin. [[spoiler: The third disc reveals that Shana is actually the current Moon Child, having managed to escape the Black Monster's rampage in Neet over eighteen years ago. Unfortunately, it also reveals that the Moon Child itself is just the reincarnated soul of the Virage Embryo, the God of Destruction, and the holy purification bestowed on Endiness would arrive in the form of an Apocalypse.]]

* [[spoiler: ApocalypseMaiden: The Moon Children themselves might not be malevolent per se, but they're driven by instinct and destiny to reconnect with the Virage Embryo and end the world.]]
* BarrierMaiden
* BornAgainImmortality: Unlike the Black Monster, the Moon Child is not physically immortal, and its spirit has to be reincarnated in a human form to go about its sacred duties; for good measure, it still takes a hundred and eight years to find a new human host whenever the Black Monster kills it. [[spoiler: Of course, the real goal of the Child is to reunite with its original body, the Virage Embryo.]]
* [[spoiler: CharmPerson: It's revealed that the Moon Child has the ability to psychically influence those around it, subtly persuading them to worship it - hence the reason why the Black Monster goes out of his way to kill everyone within a mile radius of the Child as well as the Child itself.]]

!!The Virage Embryo

Purported to be the one hundred and eighth fruit of the Divine Tree, an unborn god of unthinkable power, [[spoiler: created specifically to destroy the world and remake it]]. It was first discovered by the ancient Winglies; under the command of Emperor Melbu Frahma, they removed the Virage Embryo's soul and imprisoned it within a Crystal Sphere; the body was kept well out of reach of both the imprisoned soul and any prospective saboteurs - [[spoiler: in the sky, where it became known as The Moon That Never Sets]]. Melbu kept the sphere with him at all times, using its immense magical power to terrorize the races under his control, in spite of his sister's efforts to lessen his power; however, in the final battle of the Dragon Campaign, the sphere was broken, releasing the soul trapped within. [[spoiler: However, thanks to the Moon signets that Charle Frahma created, the soul couldn't return to its original body, so it began a cycle of incarnating itself in the bodies of newborn humans, hoping to find a way of destroying the signets through the worshippers it inspired over the course of each lifetime - and earning the title of The Moon Child in the process. For eleven thousand years, Rose managed to stop it from making any progress - up until Shana escaped her assassination attempt.]]

* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: To Lavitz.

* FragileSpeedster -> GlassCannon and LightningBruiser once her last Addition is maxed out.

* OutOfFocus: One of the reasons Miranda is seen as TheScrappy. While most characters do get their focus, Miranda and Kongol just seem to be along for the ride. Miranda in particular doesn't show up until midway through the third disc, leaving little time for character development.

A magician and researcher dwelling within the city of Aglis. During the Dragon Campaign, Aglis was shot down by human forces, sending it plummeting into the ocean; however, Savan was able to prevent the city's outright destruction by creating a barrier around it, holding in the oxygen and protecting it from flooding. As the only surviving Wingly in the area, Savan gave himself the task of preserving as much magical knowledge as possible and defending Aglis' signet sphere from harm. However, over the milennia he spent researching the outside world through his scrying mirror, he came to sympathize with humans, [[spoiler: specifically, Rose]]. As such, when Dart and the others arrive in Aglis during the fourth disc, Savan is more than willing to help them.

* CoolPet: Most of his [[{{Familiar}} Familiars]] function as this. There's also Coolon, the GiantFlyer he gives to the heroes as an easier means of getting around the world map.

Purported to be the one hundred and eighth fruit of the Divine Tree, an unborn god of unthinkable power, [[spoiler: created specifically to destroy the world and remake it]]. It was first discovered by the ancient Winglies; under the command of Emperor Melbu Frahma, they removed the Virage Embryo's soul and imprisoned it within a Crystal Sphere; the body was kept well out of reach of both imprisoned soul and any prospective saboteurs - [[spoiler: in the sky, where it became known as The Moon That Never Sets]]. Melbu kept the sphere with him at all times, using its immense magical power to terrorize the races under his control, in spite of his sister's efforts to lessen his power; however, in the final battle of the Dragon Campaign, the sphere was broken, releasing the soul trapped within. [[spoiler: However, thanks to the Moon signets that Charle Frahma created, the soul couldn't return to its original body, so it began a cycle of incarnating itself in the bodies of newborn humans, hoping to find a way of destroying the signets through the worshippers it inspired over the course of each lifetime - and earning the title of The Moon Child in the process. For eleven thousand years, Rose managed to stop it from making any progress - up until Shana escaped her assassination attempt.]]

* MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily.

* WomanInWhite: Wears a white robe as a ghost and reveals many truths.

The green-tusked dragon living inside a toxic swamp in the middle of Serdio. The Sandoran empire managed to tame it with [[spoiler: Greham's Dragoon Spirit]], and now is their secret weapon.

* OurDragonsAreDifferent: He looks more like some sort of giant mantis, and isn't sentient.

* TechnicolorToxin: Green poison (poison), blue poison (fear) and grey poison (stun).

The sea dragon of Illisa Bay residing on the Prison Island. It's known for assaulting ships and thus making the sea dangerous. It takes orders from [[spoiler: Lenus]].

* AchillesHeel: [[spoiler: Whenever he cast his dark laser attack he opens a weak spot on his chest for a short time.]]

* EarlyBirdCameo: First seen in Rose's flashback where it tears a Virage apart by ramming and thrashing his head in its body. Then he destroys another one with his laser attack.
* OurDragonsAreDifferent: Is hard to describe him, but he looks slightly more like a wyvern.

The seven-winged god of the dragons, is the strongest living dragon and was imprisoned by the Wingly inside a giant volcano in Mille Sesau. However he later awakens from his slumber to wreak havoc on the world.

* AGodAmI: He's the god of the dragons. [[spoiler: Considering that you can only barely kill him only because you have the right MacGuffin and it has been weakened earlier by the only weapon which can hurt him, that's not an exaggeration.]]

* DeathFromAbove: The Divine Attack, which consist in a shower of energy blasts shoot from his chest.
* GiantFlyier
* EldritchAbomination: While he does look a little more like the traditional dragon he also have prehensile teeth, seven eyes (one of which on his chin) and seven wings.

* RoarBeforeBeating: His roar can cause fear and it does roar right before using the Divine Attack.

Ruler of the southern part of Serdio, which broke from Basil to become Imperial Sandora following the death (read: murder) of Albert's father Carlo. Doel claims to be fighting to create a world where all creatures may live in peace - by any means necessary. However, for the past few years, he's been content to operate under the truce between Basil and Sandora without actively pursuing his goals... up until he discovered the power of dragons, with Lloyd's help, of course. Doel is the primary antagonist of Chapter One, and is revealed to be in possession of the Purple Dragon Orb. Late in the game, an apparition known as "Dark Doel" appears to test Albert's virtue.

* FridgeHorror: Greham has a dragon. Lenus has a dragon. Why doesn't Doel have a dragon? Well, the castle is powered by purple (the colour of Doel's Thunder element) flame... which is explicitly stated to be powered by a Dragon's power... and there's a Dragon corpse in the basement of the castle being experimented on...
* GeniusBruiser: As well as being an impressive swordsman and a powerful Dragoon, he's a shrewd tactician (even without Lloyd's help) and very happy to incorporate highly-advance MagiTek into his palace and personal defences.

* OneWingedAngel: Doel reveals himself as a Dragoon when he's half-beaten. OhCrap.

* PurpleIsPowerful: He's the Purple Dragoon.

A Wingly bandit lovesick for Lloyd, she spends much of her screen time disguised as Princess Emille of Tiberoa, whom she and the Gehrich Gang had sealed inside a magical pocket dimension following a "convenient" horse accident. When directly challenged by the Dragoons, however, her rowdy side manifests in a frenzy of cesta attacks and ancient magic. After escaping the palace, she flees to Prison Island, where she's confronted a second time, this time using the Blue Sea Dragoon Spirit and calling on the dragon Regole to help her. Upon her death, the Blue Sea Spirit is given to Meru.

* SquishyWizard: Though she's a very powerful Wingly magician, she's nothing special in the way of physical resilience. This is carried over to her Dragoon powers.
** She actually gets squishier as a Dragoon. As a Wingly, she's actually far more powerful offensively, which made her a GlassCannon. As a Dragoon, she does get some defensive power (not much though), but her massive attack power takes a large hit, making her effectively weaker.

* TheBrute: Very big, very strong....not very smart.

* FridgeBrilliance: When poisoned, Shana is diagnosed it being healthy in the body but poisoned in the mind. Feyrbrand primarily uses his Fear-inducing attack a lot more than his Poison-inducing one.

* OrcusOnHisThrone: Doesn't do anything against anyone until they take the fight to him.

* ShockAndAwe: Even before [[spoiler: unleashing his Dragoon Spirit]], he can cast waves of purple lightning

* SquishyWizard: Through she's a very powerful Wingly magician, she's nothing special in the way of physical resilience. This is carried over to her Dragoon powers.

!! Emperor Diaz/ [[spoiler: Zieg Feld]]

Over 11,000 years ago, Melbu Frahma was the ruler of the Winglies and all of Endiness, renowned for both his power and his depravity. Frahma, according to the lore of present-day Winglies, was directly responsible for imposing on his people the genocidal directive of Wingly superiority over all other living creatures. These lesser beings had no right to live, he preached, and it was the mercy of the Winglies that suffered them as a slaves.

To cement his role as all-powerful dictator, he kept the soul of the Virage Embryo in a Crystal Sphere, giving him immense magical power. His older sister, Charle, realizing the the threat Melbu posed, created five Signet Spheres to limit the power he could draw from it and keep the body of the Virage Embryo- known in layman's terms as "[[spoiler: The Moon That Never Sets]]"- floating in the sky. In retaliation, Melbu Frahma created Divine Moon Objects to destroy the spheres if need be.

However, he never had a chance to do so: the human slaves of his empire finally rebelled, leading to a war known afterwards as the Dragon Campaign. Led by Emperor Diaz and assisted by [[DefectorFromDecadence sympathetic Winglies]], the humans proved themselves too formidable for Frahma to easily defeat, especially when they began harnessing Dragons for war- creating the legendary Dragoons in the process. During the Dragoons' final attack on the Wingly Capital of Kadessa, Zieg, the bearer of the Red-Eyed Dragoon Spirit, defeated and killed Melbu- apparently at the cost of his own life. [[spoiler: Secretly, Melbu transmigrated his soul into Zieg's Red Dragoon Spirit, intending one day to arise and use the Virage Embryo's body and soul to attain a truly godlike power.]]

* TheArchmage: Thanks to the power of the Crystal Sphere, Frahma was arguably one of the most powerful magicians in all Endiness- especially once Faust died.

* [[spoiler: ConflictKiller. Once he's revealed himself, all other fights are kinda meaningless. ]]

* [[spoiler: NiceJobFixingItVillain: In achieving his goals, he takes away the one reason for the heroes holding back. This backfires onhim, very hard.]]

The former owner of the White Silver Dragoon Spirit, died fighting a Super Virage during the battle of Kadessa. Her spirit is still bound to earth and resides in a ruined shrine in the middle of Serdian mountains. She's trying to save the other Dragoons and will test Dart in order to see if he's worthy of the Dragoon spirit for Shana.

* UnfinishedBusiness: Her spirit will stay on earth as long as the other four dragoons are trapped.

* TakingYouWithMe: How he died in the past. Namely, he [[ActionBomb self-destructed along with the head of a Super Virage]]. Bonus point for using this sentence as his FamousLastWords.

* HeroicSacrifice: His last act was to try and save Shirley from the dual threat of an attacking Virage and a collapsing ceiling; though he managed to grab the ceiling in time, the only way he could stop the Virage was by [[TakingTheBullet getting impaled on it's fingers]]. Sadly, Shirley refused to abandon Belzac, resulting in the Virage's next attack killing both of them.

* SuperStrength: Much like Kongol, Belzac was immensely strong in life- a trait enhanced by his Dragoon powers- enough to lift the collapsing roof of a Wingly building, which looked like it wheighed a few tons at the very least.

Sister to the infamous Wingly Emperor, Charle was one of the few Winglies of her generation that sympathized with the humans her little brother oppressed. Throughout the Dragon Campaign, she and her partners-in-crime provided aid to the resistance, becoming friends to the Dragoons in the process. She even went so far as to personally sabotage Melbu's powers by creating the Divine Moon Objects. Even once her human allies had won the war, she continued assisting them- more specifically, the only surviving Dragoon: [[spoiler: Rose, the Darkness Dragoon.]] Early in the fourth disc, it's revealed that Charle was the Winglie who first learned of the threat that the [[spoiler: Moon Child and the Virage Embryo]] posed, and sent out [[spoiler: Rose- as the Black Monster-]] to stop them.

A mysterious demon who exists seemingly only to kill, the Black Monster has been slaughtering innocents for over eleven thousand years, his massacres coinciding with the birth of the Moon Child every one hundred and eight years- his victims often including the Moonchild as well. It's commonly believed that his mission in life is prevent the Moon Child from cleansing the world, which would destroy him as well; of course, Dart has set out to kill the Monster long before this can happen, motivated by revenge for the destruction of Neet. [[spoiler: It's revealed that the Black Monster is actually Rose, trying to save the world by stopping the Moon Child from ''ending it''.]]

* HumanoidAbomination: [[spoiler: Well, anyone thinks so- quite incorrectly.]]

* WouldHurtAChild: The Black Monster is more than prepared to kill children over the course of his rampages, and because the intended target is the Moon Child- who will likely be only a baby at the time of the massacre- child murder is ''guaranteed.''

* [[spoiler: CharmPerson: It's revealed that the Moon Child has the ability to psychically influence those around it, subtly persuading them to worship it- hence the reason why the Black Monster goes out of his way to kill everyone within a mile radius of the Child as well as the Child itself.]]

* BadMoonRising: [[spoiler: It's original body, which has been mistaken for a moon by countless astronomers.]]

* MementoMacGuffin: His father's memento is actually the Red Eyed Dragoon crystal

* [[spoiler: MacGuffinGirl]]: [[spoiler: She's the Moon child]]

* [[spoiler: SeparatedAtBirth / SwitchedAtBirth]]: [[spoiler: The Black Monster was sent to kill Shana as a baby but accidentally killed her twin, which is how the Moon Child managed to survive to adulthood]].

* EasilyForgiven: Rose [[spoiler:has killed untold numbers of people throughout the generations to prevent the Moon Child from coming about, and Zieg makes sure everyone in the party nows about it at the end of the third disc.]] Apart from a swordfight with [[spoiler: Dart]] to resolve the pent-up anger, the part very readily forgave Rose for this. Rose herself was surprised at this treatment, but everyone accepted that [[ShootTheDog she did what]] [[IDidWhatIHadToDo had to be done]].

* TheObiWan: Mysterious check. part of the [[spoiler: Old order]] check. Teaches mystic powers to TheHero, check. [[spoiler: MentorOccupationalHazard, check]]

* SugarAndIcePersonality: Rose can be extremely cold and downright merciless at times, but with a lot of patience and effort, she can show a certain degree of affection- usually to Dart.

Martial Arts master from the [[{{Wutai}} isolated island village of Rouge]], who joins Dart and pals to take a bit of a break from his own search for his missing daughter Claire. This winds up being a shock to Dart, as Claire was also his mother's name, and the lullaby Dart taught Shana originated from Rouge. [[spoiler:Of course, there are no coincidences.]]

* LightningBruiser: Both stat-wise and literally, of a fast hard hitter variants, but he have a decent defense as well. [[spoiler:Its not a coincidence that he and Dart are well balanced.]]

* ThemeNaming : His addition refers to numbers, and add the exact same number of hits -1 to fit the number of hits with the number it represents. The weird exception is flurry of styx(which might or might not be reffering to three) and Hex Hammer(which adds 6 hits, totalling into 7 attack).

* ShockAndAwe: After gaining the Thunder Dragoon Spirit. Probably one of the main reasons he doesn't fall behind statwise, as Thunder has no [[ElementalRockPaperScissors counter-element]].

* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: Like Lavitz UpToEleven and the knight's liege lord.
* AwesomeButPractical: The Rose Storm spell. It halves damage for three turns and won't break the mana meter

* [[MacGuffinGirl MacGuffin Guy]]: The Moon Gem's inside his body

* AgeInappropriateDress: Although Meru is older than she looks if you meet her fiance in the Wingly Forest.

** AwesomeYetPractical : On the other hand, she is ridiculously fast, and has ridiculously powerfull spell, combined with second highest magic stats, far making up for the weakened Dart.

* GenkiGirl: The world will end before she runs out of energy.

* MagikarpPower : Not as bad as Shana, but she despite her massive speed, she starts with weak addition for several level, pottentialy the latest to gain her Dragoon, and weak defense. Properly trained and set up, she become a complete GameBreaker, capable of killing bosses before they got a single turn, dealing massive damage like it was nothing, and become the strongest physical party member with only Haschel that is capable of outdoing her physical damage output. Not to mention that her Dragoon form is the most versatile, having both healing move and spell for every situation. And in case you forgot, she is also the one with highest speed.

* TokenHeroicOrc: Of all the [[spoiler: winglies]] the party meets, she's the only helpful one.

* ProudWarriorRaceGuy: Everything for him is about the honor the Giganto.
