Protagonists
Jude Maverick
Jude Maverick
Voiced by: Ryōko Shiraishi (Japanese); Julie Ann Taylor (English)
Gadgeteer
A naive and somewhat immature boy who is a natural Gene Driver: one who can control an ARM. He has a reckless determination to overcome all obstacles and do what is right. As a fighter, he's the Jack of All Stats and the only one required to reload his weapons.- Children Are Innocent: Several characters note that his optimistic worldview is a good thing in the Crapsack World that is Filgaia. His willingness to do what feels right clashes with the antagonists' Well-Intentioned Extremist philosophy, and he manages to convince several of them to change their cynical disposition.
- Chronic Hero Syndrome: His first instinct when he sees Yulie in a cell? He tries to bust her out, despite being unarmed in a ship full of soldiers. He often goes out of his way to help people even when the party has little time to spare, such as helping the village of Halim shortly before the final battle.
- Heroic BSoD: After he sees his mother killed, he goes silent - even if you had his voice settings at such a point that he'd ordinarily burst out with some catchphrase or sound effect every three steps. It's... unnerving.
- Jack of All Stats: He has the most balanced status of the four party members, but lacks his allies' special abilities.
- Kid Hero: Jude is only 13 years old, and yet he is The Hero of the story.
- Meaningful Appearance: His jacket is blatantly oversized, which signifies that he still has much growing up to do, and not only in physical, but also in mental sence. The only question is if he has to sacrifice his ideals in order to fit into the Crapsack World he lives in.
- Morph Weapon: His ARM, aptly-named Shapeshifter, can morph into a variety of weapons. Normally it manifests as a pistol, and turns into a sword when it runs out of bullets, but certain skills has it take other forms. Phantom Line turns it into a large laser gun, Short Circuit makes it into an SMG, and Silver Launcher is a grenade launcher.
- Speed Blitz: His Assault Buster attack has him use Accelerator to slash the enemy multuple times with the sword form of his ARM. It becomes stronger based on difference in RFX (the stat that governs turn order) between Jude and the enemy.
- Super-Speed: Nanomachines in his body enable him to use Accelerator. It's shown to give him enough speed to run on water, or to catch up to a speeding train.
Yulie Ahtreide
Yulie Ahtreide
Voiced by: Ayako Kawasumi (Japanese); Kate Higgins (English)
Paladienne
A shy girl who is extremely wary of adults. She is also a Gene Driver, but her abilities were given to her through extensive and inhumane treatments and experimentation. She cannot activate ARMs like Jude can, but can control already active ARMs, which allows her to use the Guardian Programs. Aside from that, she's primarily a healer/support character.- Apologises a Lot
- Break the Cutie: Yulie received inhumane treatment and experimentation made by scientists that attempted to create a Gene Driver.
- Feminine Women Can Cook: She usually cooks for the party, and everyone notes how tasty her cooking is. When Raquel is shown cooking, she herself notes that her cooking is bad when compared to Yulie's.
- Improbable Weapon User: Her weapon is a circle that looks like a Chakram, but it's actually this. For her normal attack it turns into three circles that move apart and push the enemy with the flat side, somehow damaging them. Her Defend Command has her levitate these three circles before her like a barrier. Wild ARMs: Million Memories just dropped all pretense and had Yulie attack with magic blasts, directed by waving the circle around.
- Mystical Waif: She has a completely unique power to control already active ARMs, something that even a born Gene Driver like Jude can't achieve. It also somehow allows her to summon Guardians - you know, Guardian Spirits of the planet.
- Summon Magic: Her Force Ability, Material, is to summon a Guardian. Normally she summons "Code: 0" Guardian, which heals the party, but if she stands on a Ley Point, it will change into Code: M, S, F, or G, depending on its element.
- Turn Undead: Her "Sanctify" spell line deals heavy damage to undead enemies, but is useless against everything else. Hi-Sanctify even has a chance to outright destroy the undead enemy no matter how many HP it has.
- White Magician Girl: She is very nice and gentle, and doesn't learn any attacks other than ones that purify undead and Summon Magic. She's also your main healer and buffer.
Arnaud G. Vasquez
Arnaud G. Vasquez
Voiced by: Hiroki Takahashi (Japanese); Yuri Lowenthal (English)
Formula User
A handsome young Drifter who is physically weak, so honed his mind into a weapon. He claims to be a selfish coward at heart, but he remains with Yulie and Jude throughout their journey. He is primarily an offensive magic user.- Attack Reflector: He learns a skill called Magic Blocker, which sometimes blocks magic attacks, and later complements it with Reflect, which sends back blocked magic.
- Black Mage: Skilled in offensive magic and ailment/debuff spells.
- Cowardly Lion: He constantly complains about how dangerous the whole adventure is, and how strong the foes they meet, but he still sticks with Jude and Yulie, despite them being the only ones the Brionac is after.
- Improbable Weapon User: Arnaud uses feather-shaped throwing knifes for his normal attacks.
- Non-Elemental: His spells of the "Blast" line normally doesn't have any elemental affinity, but gain one if he's standing on a Ley Point.
- The Smart Guy: He comes up with the team's plans to get into or out of somewhere, and periodically boasts how he "good in everything from the neck up". Heis class is also listed as "Formula User", and his magic is implied to come from mental training.
- Squishy Wizard: Being the party's Black Mage, his physical attack power and vitality aren't the highest.
- Teleportation: His Force Ability, "Jump", allows him to instantly travel to any HEX on the battlefield. He also refers to it in a story cutscene, so it's not just a gameplay mechanic.
Raquel Applegate
Raquel Applegate
Voiced by: Hitomi Nabatame (Japanese); Wendee Lee (English)
Master Fencer
A swordswoman seemingly without peer. She is by far the most mature member of the party. She travels the world to find and paint the remaining beauty in the world. She also happens to be the most broken character in your party, with an attack strength high enough to finish most non-boss enemies in one hit. She later gains abilities that give her superior mobility on the battlefield and the ability to act twice in a row.- Action Girl: She's implied to be travelling alone for years, and as such she's more than capable to defend herself. She also gets just as much combat cutscenes as Jude. Her Establishing Character Moment is to calmly ask some soldiers, who were causing a ruckus, to behave properly, and then to take them at swordpoint when they take offence.
- Badass Normal: As far as we know, she has no special abilities or enhancements, she's just that good with the sword. To give an idea how good she is, she can successfully parry attacks from a Dual Wielding guy who can stop time.
- The Big Gal: The strongest party member, Raquel can finish most enemies in one hit.
- BFS: Her sword reaches up to her chest when planted into the ground, and is almost as wide as she is.
- Cool Big Sis: Generally plays this role to the party, being the oldest and most mature team member. It's her pep talk that breaks Jude out of his Heroic BSoD.
- Died Happily Ever After: Having finally found true happiness and beauty through her marriage to Arnaud, and having given birth to their daughter, Raquel passes on peacefully with no regrets.
- Extra Turn: Her Intrude ability, which trades FP for an extra turn. Given how much damage she does in a single turn, Intrude basically means that most boss fights abruptly end as soon as Raquel gets a turn.
- Lady of War: A swordswoman with a cool and mature demeanor on a quest for beauty.
- Mighty Glacier: An extreme example. Raquel is so slow that each of the other party members will generally get two actions for every one action Raquel gets, but her attack power is so high that she often does more than half a boss's HP in one hit.
- Morph Weapon: A minor example. Her sword has an extendable handle, which turns it into a spear.
- Soap Opera Disease: Due to being injured during the destruction of Verklerung, she has an unknown but fatal illness. It's greatly implied to be radiation poisoning.
- Walking the Earth: Looking for things of beauty.
The Brionac Forces
Leaders
Lamba Zellweger
Lambda Zellweger
Voiced by: Jurota Kosugi (Japanese); Grant George (English)
Blue Destiny
The leader of Brionac, Lambda has the ability to see the future. His weapons are the sword and whip.- Alas, Poor Villain: He's pretty pitiable in his final moments, mainly due to his Heel Realization.
- Charles Atlas Superpower: He is not noted to have any superpowers beyond his Combat Clairvoyance, but it doesn't stop him from smashing several boulders with his bare hands at one point, and then swinging a steel beam around.
- Combat Clairvoyance: Lambda has the Blue Destiny ability, which lets him calculate the future based on whatever he sees, and allows him to completely avoid most attacks. It can be overloaded if the information he receives is too complex, such as Force Combination Arts.
- Even Evil Has Standards:
- Lambda kills the Cabal in disgust shortly after learning their true objectives.
- In the backstory, he also personally executed Fiore and Asia's creator after learning that he was a rapist.
- Jumping Off the Slippery Slope: Lambda is initially a fairly moral person, but after he loses the greater portion of his comrades and the organization he served falls apart, his recourse is practically to wipe anyone not capable of surviving a horde of powerful mutants off the planet. Needless to say, he fucking lost it.
- Knight Templar
- Large Ham: During his rants about Filgaia's future.
- Manly Tears: He sheds tears whenever his ability shows him how much needs to be sacrificed in the name of giving Filgaia a future. Hence his ability being nicknamed "Future Veiled in Tears".
- Meaningful Name: Lambda is the 11th letter of the Greek alphabet; the Brionac Forces is composed by eleven members (including Lambda himself).
- Red Baron:
- He, like the other members of Brionac, is nicknamed after his ability, "Blue Destiny".
- His inclination to Manly Tears led to him being called "Future Veiled in Tears".
- Redemption Equals Death
- Social Darwinist: His final plan is to use the Divine Weapon to unleash powerful monsters upon the world, ensuring that the survivors, who will have proven themselves to be the fittest, will usher in a better future.
- Well-Intentioned Extremist: He genuinely thinks that using the Divine Weapon to recreate the world is the only way to preserve Filgaia.
Farmel Arianrhod
Farmel Arianrhod
Voiced by: Kotono Mitsuishi (Japanese); Mary Elizabeth McGlynn (English)
Citadel of the Gods
The Shield of Brionac. She supports and loves Lambda unconditionally, although her outward demeanor is lighthearted. Her weapon is a shield.- Artificial Limbs: She appears to have prostheses in place of her right arm and leg, but this is never elaborated upon. She, however, lacks the "Machine" attribute that Balgaine has.
- Ms. Fanservice: Combine her Navel-Deep Neckline with her flirtatious relationship with Lambda.
- Navel-Deep Neckline: Her neckline plunges to her stomach.
- Recurring Element: She is the game's Asgard, with her defensive fighting style mirroring the original Asgard's Barrier Warrior abilties.
- Red Baron: She calls herself Asgard, the Citadel of the Gods, before her boss battle.
- Stone Wall: Her combat style is entirely defensive. She uses multiple stances that make her immune to different types of attacks and give her different counters. This includes a stance that is immune to all damage and deals 9999 damage with its counterattack. She, however, never attacks on her own, giving the player plenty of time to figure out her weakness.
Kresnik Ahtreide
Kresnik Ahtreide
Voiced by: Susumu Chiba (Japanese); Johnny Yong Bosch (English)
Pale Rider
Yulie's brother and, as a result of the same experimentation done on Yulie, also a Gene Driver. He cares deeply for his sister but is jealous of Jude for having the natural ability to use ARMs.- Aloof Big Brother: Yulie's.
- Anti-Villain
- Cool Bike: Javelin, Kresnik's motorcycle.
- Green-Eyed Monster: Kresnik envies Jude for being a natural born ARMs wielder much younger than him. Kresnik had to undergo severe mutations and can still only wield prototype ARMs with the aid of drugs.
- Guest-Star Party Member: Twice during the game: at Garra de Leon, he go against Lambda's orders and help saving Yulie and, at the last dungeon, he joins Jude, after he got separated from his friends.
- Heel–Face Turn
- Inferred Survival: The epilogue strongly implies that he is alive after all. Firstly, Yulie is shown to have his music box, despite previously saying that she won't take his gift from anyone else. And secondly, there is a panning shot that briefly shows a silouhette that strongly resembles him. And this shot pans out from his sister's appearance.
- Red Baron: He is known as the Pale Rider. It's also his class on the status screen, when he briefly joins you as a Guest-Star Party Member.
- Take Up My Sword: Late in the game, he falls into a pit and instead of letting Jude help him, he gives him his ARM and falls down, presumably to his death (or maybe not). Apparently, LiNKER took a toll on his body, and he didn't want to fail everyone, and instead chose to entrust his power to Jude. Indeed, Jude inherits his ARM-based Original commands, including incredibly useful Apoptosis, which is effective against enemies in the final dungeon, including final boss.
Lieutenants
Jeremy
Jeremy
Voiced by: Shintaro Ohata (Japanese); Liam O'Brien (English)
Inertial Canceller
By far the most violent and insane member of Brionac, Jeremy wields a rapid fire missile launcher barehanded thanks to his special ability, "Inertia Cancel."- Ax-Crazy: Jeremy is extremely violent and perfectly willing to ignore mission objectives in favor of murdering anyone who slights him. And he gets worse after becoming a Wild ARM.
- Body Horror: His transformation into a Wild ARM isn't as grotesque as Augst's, but half of his body ends up being converted into some kind of bio-mechanical substance while his arm is grossly fused to his gatling gun.
- Extra Turn: His Inertia Cancel ability manifests itself in battle as this, where he gets an extra attack every turn. He starts using it in his second battle, and every battle afterwards increases the amount of extra turns by one each, ending at three extra turns.
- Half-Human Hybrid: He is merged with his ARM in the final battle against him.
- Mythology Gag: His Red Baron title, Inertial Canceller, is a reference to the "Inertia Cancel" feature from Wild ARMs 3, that allowed the player to re-pick the action for the current turn for the price of 25 Force Points.
- Recurring Boss: One of the very few examples of this in the game. In a game where most of the villains die after their first battle, Jeremy is fought a grand total of four times.
- Red Baron: Inertial Canceller.
- With Great Power Comes Great Insanity: When he merges with an ARM, he becomes even more insane and violent, and indiscriminately blows up everything in town just to make Jude fight him once again.
Scythe Riebauer
Scythe Riebauer
Voiced by: Daisuke Kishio (Japanese); Cam Clarke (English)
Crimson Noble
A man who claims to be one of the half-mythical Crimson Nobles. He brings his lover, Belial, into the inner circle of Brionac, and frequently feeds on her. He has the special ability to manipulate time and space.- Blood Magic: Unknown to himself, the ability to manipulate space come from drinking Belial's blood.
- Faux Affably Evil: He tries to act charming, but he's an unpleasant prick who, compared to most of Brionac, is pretty low on morality scale.
- Interspecies Romance: With Belial. Belial being his non-human partner.
- Life Drain: The spell "Suction".
- Oh, Crap!: When an airship on the carrier's engines fire up and jets right at his direction, Scythe tries to warp out but finds out he can't do anything except look at all the airplanes tumbling towards him.
- Our Vampires Are Different: His vampirism gives him the power to control space and time. Although he is not himself a Crimson Noble, anyway, and only gets his power through his lover, who is a demon.
- Readings Are Off the Scale:Arnaud: "The amount of magic welling up in him is insane!"
Jude: "You can tell?"
Arnaud: "Magic's my specialty...I can't help but sense it. He's beyond inhuman...Maybe he is a Crimson Noble!" - Red Baron: Crimson Noble.
- Space Master: Has the power to create space distortions.
- Would Hurt a Child: Most of the members of Brionac, sans Jeremy, are more content with capturing Yulia and giving the heroes a chance to stand down and escape. Scythe, however, jumps straight to trying to kill them.
Hugo Hewitt
Hugo Hewitt
Voiced by: Taiten Kusunoki (Japanese); Yuri Lowenthal (English)
System Chronos
A member of Brionac whose special ability is "System Chronos", which stops time for everyone but himself. He wields a pair of swords, named Gan and Diva, which can be combined to form a bow.- Bifurcated Weapon
- Graceful Loser: Admits his defeat to the party.
- No-Sell: Jude tried to use his Accelerator to keep up with Hugo's speed, but Hugo 'teleports' behind Jude and kicks him in the rear.Hugo: "They call me "System Chronos"... My ability is to compress the flow of time, allowing me, and me alone to move amidst high-density time which is practically standing still... Do you understand? No matter how much you accelerate, when I compress time, your speed approaches zero! The super-speed ability of your Accelerator is completely powerless before System Chronos.
- Red Baron: System Chronos.
- Time Stands Still: Is capable of compressing time with his ability. In battle, this allows him to move to another panel on the battlefield and avoid attacks unless he's cornered.
Heath
Heath
The Brionac member who created Fiore and Asia. He was killed by Lamba before the events of the game.- All Men Are Perverts: According to Enil, Heath used his ability to stalk on the female staff members. This is also the reason Lambda killed him.
- Driven to Madness: According to Enil, his special ability didn't do well for his sanity.
- Invisibility: His special ability allows him to became completely invisible, undetectable by any human sense or even machine.
- Mad Scientist: Created Fiore and Asia.
- Posthumous Character: Was killed by Lambda before the events of the game.
- Red Baron: Invisible Stalker.
Enil Aidem
Enil Aidem
Voiced by: Nao Takamori (Japansese); Erika Lenhart (English)
Dark Whisper
A physically weak woman who has the devastating special ability of "Dark Whisper," which can manifest illusions, particularly fears. She also has the ability to shapeshift.- Anti-Villain: Is almost entirely bereft of antagonistic traits and is rather pitiable herself.
- Flunky Boss: Enil herself is a flimsy boss who is reliant on using her shadows to inflict damage and prevent enemies from attacking her.
- Mirror Boss: Her gimmick. She summons shadow clones of the party who fight for her. Additionally, attacking a clone without the matching character inflicts the damage dealt to that corresponding party member.
- Red Baron: Dark Whisper.
Balgaine Ales
Balgaine Ales
Voiced by: Daisuke Gōri (Japanese); Douglas Rye (English)
Baron of Gore
A powerful warrior seeking an honorable death on the battlefield. His weapon is a anti-tank chainsaw.- Blasphemous Boast: He boasts that not even the gods stand the chance against him and "his partner" (his chainsaw, that is).
- Blood Knight: He expresses his excitement to fight against someone who wields an ARM. He also believes that true warriors give meaning to their lives by fighting.
- Chainsaw Good: Again, a friggin' anti-tank chainsaw. It's powerful enough to instantly kill anyone in his attack range. Played with, however, as he still needs to waste a whole turn to start it up before every attack.
- Contractual Boss Immunity: His special ability, "Baron of Gore", nullifies any kind of ailment/debuff spell. As the game puts it, "the only way to prevail is with a head-on assault".
- Cool Shades: He is a powerful fighter, who wears a pair of shades, even though his battle takes place in a dimly lit train car.
- Cyborg: It's implied that he is heavily augmented, as the "Analyze" command assigns him the "Machine" attribute, and he is weak against Jude's Short Circuit attack, that normally deals good damage only to robots, mechs and the like. He also explodes after being defeated.
- Death Seeker: Openly expresses regret that he didn't die in combat during the war. Naturally, as an antagonist, he gets his wish when he fights the heroes.
- Dynamic Entry: Balgaine chops a train car in half with a chainsaw, then uses his Jetpack to go after the moving train, where the party is.
- Mighty Glacier: Takes two turns to perform any attack, but if any gets caught in his range when he finally lets go, they are dead.
- Red Baron: Baron of Gore.
Augst
Augst
Voiced by: Akio Nojima (Japanese); Paul St. Peter (English)
The Trifler
A former colleague of Jude's parents, Augst now works as a scientist for Brionac. He lacks any combat prowess or special abilities, unlike most of the rest of Brionac.- Badass Normal: Averted. Unlike the rest of Brionac, Augst has no special ability or skill in combat. In order for him to impede the heroes in any way, he has to inject himself with experimental Wild ARM cells. Regardless, that he's willing to do that at all in the name of his objectives is impressive enough.
- Body Horror: Becomes a bloated, tumorous mass of mutated flesh after becoming a Wild ARM. His biology becomes so warped that he actually absorbs energy, demonstrated when he absorbs a battleship-sized explosion, becoming a giant, unstable blob that leaks fire and is ready to explode at any moment in the process
- Evil Genius: To some degree. He's not evil, per se, but he's antagonistic, he has committed some heinous crimes, and serves as the lead strategist and scientist within a morally-dubious military faction.
- Red Baron: The Trifler.
- Stone Wall: His boss form is this. It halves all damage received and absorbs elemental magic, but is so impossibly slow that you could literally kill him 10 times over before he even gets his own turn.
- Well-Intentioned Extremist: Wishes to develop ARMs for the sake of healing the war-torn planet, but is willing to commit wholly unethical experiments in the process.
- You Shall Not Pass!: Mutates himself in order to stall the heroes while Lambda escapes.
Others
Tony
Tony
Voiced by: Cam Clarke (English)
An army commander who invaded Ciel in the beginning of the game.- Butt-Monkey: He gets thrashed and demoted every time he meets the party, culminating in his death.
- Fat Bastard: He is a Bad Boss who only cares for his own promotion.
- Mini-Mecha: His Landing Gear.
- Starter Villain: The first antagonist of the game, being sent to Ciel Shelter to secure the Shapeshifter ARM.
- Up Through the Ranks: His main objetive.
- Irony: He is a Glory Hound , and yet his rank gets lower each time the party defeats him. Acting Commander Tony -> Acting Commander Tony (on probation) -> Recon Unit Leader Tony -> Third Class Pilot Tony.
Belial
Belial
Voiced by: Sachiko Kojima (Japanese); Mona Marshall (English)
- Ax-Crazy: She doesn't take Scythe's death well.
- Flunky Boss: Summons spacial distortions and uses them as shields.
- Hoist by Her Own Petard: Belial is normally extremely powerful, but the creation of her own pocket dimension for the sake of trapping the heroes drains her power to such a level that the heroes are able to defeat her. Said dimension then collapses while she's still iside, killing her.
- Interspecies Romance: With Scythe. With her as the non-human part.
- Kiss of the Vampire: Belial clearly enjoys getting bitten by Scythe. Except that he isn't a vampire.
- Magical Barefooter: She wears some banadages instead of shoes, and is a powerful Space Master who floats instead of walking.
- Marked Change: When she reveals her true power, she gets yellow markings all over her body.
- Names to Run Away From: "Belial" is an epithet for the Devil that originates from Hebrew language. While she may not be literally the Devil, she nonetheless is the single most supernatural character in the game, who has absolute mastery over space.
- Not Quite Human: According to Lambda, although the game does not reveal what her species is.
- Power Floats: When she exerts her true power while hunting the party, she floats several centimeters above ground.
- Space Master: According to Augst, Belial has absolute mastery over space. After Scythe's death, she creates her own dimension just to trap and hunt down the heroes.
- Unstoppable Rage: Her very first action after Scythe dies is to annihilate the airship the heroes are on. She doesn't calm down from there.
Fiore and Asia
Fiore and Asia
Voiced by: Ryō Hirohashi (Japanese); Melissa Fahn (English)
Fiore (left) and Asia (right)
A pair of living creepy dolls designs by a Mad Scientist named Heath. Although not officially members of Brionac, they are associated with the group and seem to take orders from Lambda. Their special ability relates to dreaming.- Dual Boss: They fight together and use Combination Attacks.
- Self-Destruct Mechanism: Each doll has this ability and attempt to use it to kill the heroes after being defeated.
- Single-Minded Twins: The duo is always seen talking about the same subject and completing each other sentences.
The Cabal
The Cabal
The Omniscient Council of Vagueness who command Brionac.- Became Their Own Antithesis: During the war, they fought against the Global Union's dictatorship regime for the sake of a democratic society. After the war was over, they grew to believe that commoners were unfit to rule, and thus became yet another set of dictators.
- Color-Coded Characters: Each member wears a different colored armor. Clifford wears red, Arlington - green, Buckingham - yellow, Ashley - blue, and Lauderdale - purple.
- The Dividual: For purposes of the story, they are essentially one character. They are never seen apart, have the exact same goals and methods, never disagree with each other, and always talk about the same topic. The only one who gets some individual characterisation is their leader, Clifford, and only because he survives a little bit longer when Lambda turns on them, and gets one final defiant speech.
- Evil Old Folks: They are very old, needing their armors to survive, and are the most villainous faction in the game, who kickstart its plot. It's implied that they may be well over a hundred years old.
- Fallen Hero: As some of the oldest vanguards of the Congressional Knights, they originally fought the Global Union for the sake of a democratic society where the average citizen could participate in the rule of government. As they grew older, however, they grew to believe that the average person was too unintelligent and incapable to participate, and thus became yet another set of dictators.
- Fun with Acronyms: "Cabal" is actully an acronym for councilmen Clifford, Arlington, Buckingham, Ashley, and Lauderdale.
- Godhood Seeker: Their ultimate goal is to use the Divine Weapon to become gods and rule over Filgaia, citing that they are the most capable people to do so.
- Hoist by Their Own Petard: The Cabal deliberately sends off each member of Brionac, one by one, to get killed so that Brionac's influence would wane and Lambda would fall in line with their desires. However, it was Lambda's own grief over the loss of all of his comrades that pressures him to confront and ultimately kill the members of the Cabal.
- Immortality Inducer: Heavily downplayed with their Armors of Leadership. It doesn't actually make them immortal, but greatly extends their lifespan.
- The Unfought: The party never confronts them, and in fact doesn't even know about their existence. Mainly because Lambda kills the Cabal before the party arrives.
The Jane Does
The Jane Does
A trio of undead supersoldiers, who serve the Congressional Knights from the shadows.- Artificial Zombie: The Jane Does were created at the White Orphanage by installing digitalized souls of negative emotions on the bodies of newly dead soldiers. It leaves them as the only boss with weakness to Sanctify.
- BFS: Jane Doe SW has a remarkably large sword, and AX has an even bigger axe. They are likely modified heavily enough to effectively wield such weapons.
- BFG: Jane Doe GN has a large cannon as her weapon.
- Only Known by Their Nickname: "Jane Doe" is a generic name used for unidentified females soldiers.
- Theme Naming: Their designations - SW, GN and AX, are short for their weapons - Sword, Gun and Axe respectively.
- We Barely Knew Ye: Unlike every other antagonist in the game, they are never mentioned by anyone else, and their role in the game is barely bigger than that of a Random Encounter. They get grand total of seven dialogue boxes before Yulie offs them with Sanctify spell.
Gawn Brawdia
Gawn Brawdia
Voiced by: Norio Wakamoto (Japanese); Kim Strauss (English)
A cheerful, almost buffoon-like, adult who helps the party numerous times along their way. He claims to search for a certain man in his travels.- Badass Normal: He's one of the only two members of Brionac without a special ability, but he is by far their strongest member, with more than two times the HP of the next toughest member and with his standard attacks being One Hit Kills.
- Coat Over the Shoulder: He always wears his jacket in this manner, to signify his friendly attitude. After he reveals himself as a member of Brionac, he starts wearing it normally, presumably so it doesn't impede his fighting capability.
- Death by Irony: He claims to be able to take down anything with twelve shots of his guns. He's proven wrong twice - once by heroes, who survive them all, and then, barely five minutes later, by eleventh missile of Illsveil Prison's AA system. For further irony, Gawn is the secret trump card of Brionac, twelfth member of Lambda's Elite 11, and he dies to the eleventh missile of the system that was supposed to only have ten.
- Dying Moment of Awesome: Gawn goes out in a physics-defying spectacle, saving the heroes from Illsveil's anti-air missile system. Specifically, he does this in mid-air, propelling himself with nothing but his two guns, while shooting down each missile up until he runs out of ammo and friggin' punches the last one.
- Guns Akimbo: His signature weapons are two 6-shot pistols, hence his title of Twin Gunner. He's stated to be able to take down anything with the 12 shots between both of his pistols.
- The Gunslinger: He wields two Hand Cannons that can deal 9999 damage with each shot (aside from counters). He's so good, the party can't even touch him, and "wins" only because he promised to let them go if they survive 12 shots.
- Instant Dogend: He appears to have one. When Jude points this out, he claims that it's a freeze-dried noodle.
- The Mole: It's all but stated that he travels with the party to leak information about their whereabouts to Brionac.
- Obfuscating Stupidity: He comes off as a buffoon, but on many occasions challenges the party members, especially Jude, to reconsider their simplistic world views. Once it's revealed he's part of Brionac, his buffoonish disguise completely disappears to reveal a much more cynical, battered man than one would have expected. He also claims to be unable to fight, despite possibly being the strongest member of Brionac.
- Punch-Clock Villain: While he doesn't like Lambda's methods, he still follows him because he believes it's his responsibility. After the party proves themselves in combat, he pulls a Heel–Face Turn and carves them a path through defences of Illsveil Prison.
- Red Baron: He has two - Double Dragoon, as seen on a console at Eulalia, and Twin Gunner.
Hauser Blackwell
Hauser Blackwell
Voiced by: Masahiko Tanaka (Japanese); Dan Woren (English)
An infamous Drifter and war criminal who wields an ARM and appears to have the same Accelerator ability as Jude. In reality, he is innocent of the crimes he is accused of and is sick of war.
- Dead All Along: It's heavily implied that Hauser is a nanomachine-powered ghost by the time the party meets him, similar to Werner from the last game.
- Disappears into Light: Hauser, who at that point may have been nothing more than a nanomachine cluster, after Jude convinces him to let go and rest.
- Luke, I Am Your Father: Hints throughout the game are made that he is Jude's father. Subverted in that it is later hinted that this is not Jude's real father (he died), but rather a collection of nanomachines that mimicked him.
- Morality Pet: The little puppy he saves. Its implied death makes him snap.
- Omnicidal Maniac: After concluding that Humans Are Bastards.
- Red Baron: The Black Reaper.
- Super-Speed: He also has the Accelerator.
- With Great Power Comes Great Insanity
The Final Boss
The Divine Weapon
- Fusion Dance: With a corrupted Hauser Blackwell.
- Humongous Mecha: His final form.
- Lost Superweapon: A giant Weapon of Mass Destruction buried at Illsveil Prison.
