The Sea Witch
"I'm the Sea Witch of the Tropical Lands and if I tell you to shoo it's because you gotta shoo!"
The last living member of the Bizargar race, the Sea Witch is a sorceress cursed with being hunted by Lympharians every time she develops a friendship with someone. Originally hostile because of it, recent events have caused her to warm up once more.
- Clever Crows: The Sea Witch's pet, the three-eyed crow named Squarks, is a Deadpan Snarker who enjoys mocking the Sea Witch and squalks before each sentence. He is also the only company the Witch had in several decades.
- Defrosting Ice Queen: Formerly unwelcoming and rude, she has warmed up considerably since she became friends with Hachi.
- Expy: Initially of the Sea Hag and Madame Mim, but not so much after her retcons.
- Feathered Fiend: She fights for the good side, but is completely merciless to her enemies.
- Jerk with a Heart of Gold: She's not really a jerk. She's just very lonely.
- Last of Her Kind: She's the last Bizargar after the rest of her race was destroyed by Lympharians.
- The Leader: During Inferno Rises.
- Morality Pet: Hachi.
- Non-Mammalian Hair: Alongside her hat, her hair is present in all her forms.
- No Social Skills: A consequence of living centuries alone, the Sea Witch lost most of her social skills with time.
- Not Evil, Just Misunderstood
- Reality Warper: She can create objects out of thin air, from a fireplace to a scarf to put around her neck.
- Really 700 Years Old: She's around 3,000 years old.
- Retcon: The Sea Witch was originally supposed to be Vargash trapped in a mortal form. This was later changed so the Sea witch would be a distinct antagonist, and then changed yet again to make her a protagonist instead.
- Voluntary Shapeshifting: The Sea Witch can change her form into more or less anything, though she prefers animal forms. Her most powerful form is that of a comically chubby dragon.
Clothovera Moirai
"Company...I've not had company in...months."
A half-human, half-Wood Elf witch-in-training, Clothovera is one of the few survivors of a witch clan who once lived in the Empire of Man. After losing her family to human forces and Lympharians, she became a wanderer alongside her familiar Nyakik. Extremely shy and with little experience with her magic, all she wants is someone who accepts her.

- All Witches Have Cats: Her familiar, Nyakik, is a cat-like creature.
- Bad Powers, Good People: Despite being a dark magic user and coming from a family of dark witches, Clothovera is determinated to use her powers for benevolent reasons only.
- Black Magic: As a dark witch, she uses Dark Source magic.
- Covert Pervert: Formerly a lot, but it has been toned down as her character was built. She keeps it to herself, but she has been shown lusting over many things, including even Kinmorunddraver's muscles.T-this man...he's making me feel things I don't usually feel around men.
- Curb-Stomp Battle: She delivered one to an Exosubstratal army during Cherish the Twilight, where she killed not only all the mutants, but also their leader Qhomthell, without breaking a sweat.

- Damsel in Distress: During Dawning of Distaste.
- Exhausted Eye Bags: She's described to have them.

- Humble Hero: As shown in the finale of Training the Witch, Clothovera does not mind fame or rewards for acts of heroism, and is content with just doing the right thing.

- No Social Skills: Trying to talk to anyone often ends with her stuttering and freezing in place.
- Shrinking Violet
- Tome of Eldritch Lore: Alhazred, her talking book from where she casts her magic and hexes.
- Unstoppable Rage: Angering her causes this. When Minoqamius kidnapped her during Dawning of Distaste she refused to leave the Kamehebi Fortress before killing her captor. This caused her relationship to Hachi to crumble as he finally saw her bad side.
- Tsundere: Type A toward Hachi. She really does still care for him. Nyakik can clearly see it.
Nyakik
"Hmpf. So be it. Call the waitress, I want milk."

- Tsundere: Type A toward everyone including Clothovera.
The Lagosi

"It feels like school all over again, except with strange enemies rather than harsh whip beatings."

- Artificial Limbs: He has lost his left arm, which has been replaced with enchanted wood from the Kame Isles.

- Cool Mask: Kanna is always seen wearing an iron mask which hides the curse mark left by Sovereign. It also serves as protection and as an intimidation tool.
- Curse: Like the Sea Witch, Kanna is cursed with Furor's Eye, a curse which attracts Lympharians to the cursed one whenever he develops relationships.
- Deadpan Snarker: One of the most sarcastic characters in the setting, to the point other characters simply ignore him when he talks.
- Playing with Fire: He also has power over pyromancy.
- Righteous Rabbit: Downplayed. He's not the nicest Lagosi ever.
- Revenge: His main motivation.
- Samurai: He is more or less one, and his weapons of choice are a pair of katanas.

- Fluffy the Terrible: Her Wyvern is one of the most fearsome of the Wyvernrider Legion. It's called Daggis.

- Arch-Enemy: Formerly Count Varelos von Dalverat, but by the end of the War of Vampires, the two managed to make peace with one another.
- Expy: Of Simon Belmont.
- My Species Doth Protest Too Much: Yurthez is a Derevar, yet he is a good-intentioned member of The Republic.
- Our Elves Are Different: He's a Derevar Elf, a race of elves known for their anti-magic properties and for being unpleasant to be around of due to their disconnection to the Source.
- Weapon Specialization: His weapon of choice is a whip with silver barbs. During the War of Vampires, he also recovered the Coronaira Whip, which is a whip made out of sun magic.
The Empire of Man
Javina Desertsun
A human Inquisitor from theEmpire of Man, known for her ruthlessness, xenophobia and a... rivalry with a chaotic spirit known as Serani. Although in service of an antagonistic organisation, she frequently works with the heroes (for various reasons) and as such considered to be a protagonist.
- A Nazi by Any Other Name: The Inquisition, whom Javina serves, is basically Schutzstaffel IN HIGH FANTASY! Subverted in that despite her xenophobia Javina is shown to have a good side.
- Ambiguously Brown: It is not clear what real-life ethnicity her appearance is supposed to represent (in-universe, she comes from Alhassal, the human province in the Sea of Sand), but she looks vaguely like a South Asian or East African woman (or perhaps a very tanned Middle Eastern woman).

- Aloof Dark-Haired Girl
- Anti-Hero
- Anti-Magic: Her coat has these properties.

- The Big Gal: She isn't really that imposing, but she still fits the bill by the virtue of her fencing skills.

- Covert Pervert: She hates it, but her nature shows up at times.
- Dark Action Girl
- Dark Is Not Evil[=]Dark Is Evil: Wears black and is of ambigous moral standing
- Enemy Mine: Why she fights alongside nonhumans at times. She holds to her code of honour, though, and serves her temporary allies loyally and with respect, and does not turn on them at the moment when their alliance ends like other inquisitors do.

- Byronic Hero
- Cursed with Awesome: The Corruption enhanced him beyond standard human capability, but he's a walking magnet for the Exosubstratal.
- Fantastic Racism: Loathes dragons with a passion.
- Genius Bruiser: Being of noble birth, Marcos likely had a classical education. Lekren's alchemy confuses him however.

The ghost of a cursed human warrior who is capable of manifesting a physical body, Norrigan is an extremely jolly knight who wishes to lift himself of his curse, so he may finally rest in peace.
- Ambiguously Gay: Somewhat effeminate and flamboyant, but he has never explicity appeared gay. It's possible that it's just a side effect of his already quirky nature, and he may actually be a Celibate Hero.

- Dumb Muscle: Norrigan isn't specially witty or intelligent, and often goes for the easiest possible solution to solve his problems.

- Our Ghosts Are Different: Norrigan died over 50 years ago, but due to his curse, he's trapped in the world of the living as a spirit. While he can use a physical copy of his old body to interact with the world, killing said body does nothing but cause Norrigan to be sent back to the original place of his death.
- Shock and Awe: He wields lighting magic, which allows him to hurl thunderbolts at his enemies.
- Super-Strength: Despite not appearing so, Norrigan is much stronger than any normal human. And despite being armored at all times, he has no problem leaping high into the air.
