A list of the characters who appear in Aesir: Cross Wars.

[[foldercontrol]]

!Main Characters
The main characters of this story. They banded together in Chapter 5 and have been kicking ass since.

[[folder: Tropes applying to the Alliance as a whole]]

* BrainsAndBrawn: Freya and Forseti are MissionControl while Azrael, Azazel and Uriel are fighters.
** In the fighters, Azazel is DumbMuscle, and Uriel is the team's smartest. Azrael balances the two out.
* BadassAdorable: All are extremely cute and ready to kick some ass.
* RagtagBunchOfMisfits: Only Azrael and Uriel have the capacity to function in a normal society.
* FourTemperamentEnsemble: [[GenkiGirl Freya]] is '''Sanguine''', [[HotBlooded Azazel]] is '''Choleric''', [[TheStoic Uriel]] is '''Melancholic''', [[MellowFellow Azrael]] is '''Phlegmatic''', and Forseti is '''Leukine'''.
* FourPhilosophyEnsemble: Uriel is TheCynic, Azrael is the Optimist, Azazel is the Realist (albeit a very scatterbrained one), Forseti is the Apathetic, and Freya is the Conflicted.
* LargeHam: All of them except Azrael (more of a Small Ham) and [[TheQuietOne Uriel]].
* FreudianTrio: Freya and Azazel play twin Ids, Uriel is the Superego, and Azrael and Forseti are the Ego.
* FourManBand: Azrael is the OnlySaneMan, Uriel is TheSmartGuy, Azazel is the ButtMonkey, and Freya is the Pervert.
[[/folder]]
[[folder: Azrael Hardrada]]

TheHero and the protagonist of the book. A GuileHero who's primary traits are being mellow, kind, and sarcastic. He often functions as the OnlySaneMan to the others' hijinks. He is seemingly unassuming, but can actually be very cunning when the time calls.

--> '''Colour:''' Green
--> '''Weapon:''' [[HeroesPreferSwords Blitzkrieg]]
--> '''Elemental Forte:''' Light, Lightning
--> '''Unofficial Voice Actor:''' Creator/MaxMittelman
--> '''Myriad Might:''' [[TeleportSpam The]] [[FragileSpeedster Trickster]]

* NiceGuy: Since Thor has essentially been PutOnABus, Azrael holds the title as the nicest character in the book.
* RedOniBlueOni: Out of the three, he's the Red to Uriel and the Blue to Azazel.
*** With Uriel, he's more optimistic and naive, while she's cynical and arrogant. He's the MellowFellow to her [[TheStoic Stoic]]. He also has a greater tendency to [[ComicalOverreacting comically overreact]].
*** With Azazel, Azrael is far kinder and calmer in comparison, in addition to being the finesse to his brother's force.
** The Blue to Freya's Red. Azrael is calm, mellow and snarky, in contrast to her GenkiGirl traits.
* FourTemperamentEnsemble: Phlegmatic. Azrael is mellow, kind, and snarky, and tries to be TheHeart. If anything, he's at least TheEgo of his team.
** During his NotSoAboveItAll moments, he's more Sanguine.
* GuileHero: Definitely more of this than [[ActionHero Azazel]] and Uriel. Many of his fights were won not through his strength, but rather his intelligence.
* ElementalPowers: [[LightEmUp Light]] and [[ShockAndAwe Lightning]].
* {{Leitmotif}}: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=afwK743PL2Y Hexagon Force]]
* ColorMotifs: Green. It's his eye-colour, the colour of his shirt, and even the colour of his [[YellowLightningBlueLightning lightning]].
* StockLightNovelHero
* GoodWeaponEvilWeapon: Between its looks and its characteristics, Blitzkrieg is most certainly a Good Weapon.
* TooGoodForThisSinfulEarth: As a human, he died at the young age of 14.
* IdiotHair: Has a massive one that Azazel and Freya have compared to an [[RagingStiffie erection]] on a few occasions. He's [[TheSmartGuy far from an idiot, though]].
* ForceAndFinesse: The flashy blade-master to Azazel's sluggish scythe-wielder.
* MinorInjuryOverreaction: While a punch from [[SuperStrength Azazel]] can hardly be considered 'minor', Azrael still completely over-sells it.
-->'''Azrael:''' Holy FUCK, Azazel! Why the fuck would you do that? You're basically a gorilla in a demon shaped package! I bet you could take the Moon out of its orbit! I think I dislocated my heart! You've crushed my hopes and my ribcage! Fuck! Is your fist made of iron? [[MusclesAreMeaningless How are you so scrawny yet so strong?]] I bet your workout partner is a fucking elephant! My spine is definitely stabbing my heart now! I hope you're happy now, you protein chomping, monkey armed, tank destroying duck!
* GoodIsNotDumb: Notably, he actually makes smart, rational decisions, only to get fucked over by the author anyway.
* NobleMaleRoguishMale: The Noble to Azazel and Siegfried's Roguish.
* HiddenDepths: There are a few subtle hints that his past has had more of an impact on him than he lets on.
* PreMortemOneLiner/BondOneLiner: His puns are meant to be this whenever he does one at the end of the battle. However, nobody is really impressed by them, and Iceaura even attempts to ''[[DisproportionateRetribution shoot him]]'' for it at one point.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: He's the sweetest boy you'll find on this side of The Sky, but get him mad and he ''will'' kick your ass.
* BewareTheSillyOnes: He's only behind Baldur and Azazel in terms of goofiness, but again, do ''not'' mess with him. He will not even give you time to regret it.
* NotSoAboveItAll: For all his uptightness, he truly is one of the sillier members of the cast.
* CatchPhrase: "It's time to judge!". Also has a more badass variant "It's time for your final judgement!"
* GoodIsNotSoft: Normally a pacifistic NiceGuy, but if he has to fight someone, he ''will''.
* TechnicalPacifist: He has no problem with fighting, but he won't kill anyone unless he absolutely has to, or if the potency of his attack is out of his control (as with Fafnir).
* FragileSpeedster: Has the highest Speed of the heroes, but his Physical Attack is average at best, and his Physical Defence is very low.
* IJustWantToBeBadass: Is a sweet boy with a few goofy moments, and is desperately trying to be badass.
* MageKiller: Actually has A+ Ranked Magic Defence. Combined with his Physical Attack (average) and Speed, he would be very good against enemy mages. Unfortunately, he hasn't encountered 'any' so far.
* LightIsGood: Wields the power of Light and is very heroic.
* TheComicallySerious: Downplayed, but compared to the rest of the group, he has relative difficulty taking a joke. A good example would be in Chapter 7, when he takes quite a while to understand that Freya's comment was a joke.
* TheKnightsWhoSaySquee: Idolises Siegfried, despite being TheHero.
* WhiteMage: Subverted big time. He has the stats of one, but his move pool contains only 2 non offensive moves. Everything else suggests an all-out attacker.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Overall. Azrael's a nice guy, but his tongue is sharp and he's sometimes rude to Freya. He's more on the 'Heart of Gold', part, though.
* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold
* LovableCoward: At the start of the story, Azrael was a bit of a coward with a low self-esteem, and he occasionally stutters. He's mostly, though not completely, grown out of it by now.
* DeadpanSnarker: In the WorldOfSnark that is this book, he still manages to stand out.
* LampshadeHanging / MetaGuy: Whenever the author stretches the reader's suspension of disbelief too far, Azrael will be the one to point it out.
%%zce* {{Foil}}: To [[PolarOppositeTwins Azazel]].
* BerserkButton: Underestimating him in any way is bound to get him pissed. The easiest way to do this is to call him 'small fry'.
** Making light of a situation he deems to be serious is another sure-fire way to get him angry. When Freya thinks the fight against Fenrir will be easy because he's been weakened (he hasn't), Azrael starts ranting.
* ServileSnarker: Despite Freya being his boss, she's definitely one of the most frequent victims of his sharp tongue. Also counts as SarcasticDevotee, given that he genuinely is loyal to her.
* LawfulGood: His InUniverse alignment.

[[/folder]]
[[folder: Freya]]

The resident LoveGoddess and MissionControl to Azrael. She is, at the same time, a NiceGirl and [[{{Jerkass}} an absolute bitch]], and is incredibly HotBlooded.

--> '''Colour:''' Red
--> '''Weapon:''' [[BladeOnAStick Vanadis]]
--> '''Elemental Forte:''' Fire, Light
--> '''UnofficialVoiceActress:''' Creator/CaitlinGlass
--> '''Myriad Might''': [[GlassCannon The]] [[BlackMagicianGirl Witch]]

* GenkiGirl: Incredibly lively and is always very cheerful.
* MoodSwinger: Can change between nice and mean at the drop of a hat.
* ShipTease: Has some with Azrael.
* HeartBeatDown: Many of her attacks look this way.
* ShapingYourAttacks: Hearts.
* NiceGirl: Half of the time, she is a very sweet and kind individual who provides morale support when needed.
* LoveGoddess
* TheTease: Downplayed compared to most, but some of her interactions with Azrael have a bit of subtext, thanks to her.
* {{Tsundere}}: Again, downplayed, but she's sort of this to Azrael.
* GlassCannon: She's got incredible attacking ability, but has little in the way of defense and stamina. It's part of why Azrael could beat her.
* {{Flight}}: Has a variant, but it's physically draining to use.
* HotBlooded
* BlackMagicianGirl: A hot blooded GenkiGirl who also happens to be a BlackMage.
* MagicKnight: Seems to prefer magic, but her Physical Attack and Magic Attack are equally high (S-rank).
* {{Foil}}: To Baldur. Both are the youngest members of the team. Freya has a relatively tame hairstyle, while Baldur’s hair would make [[Manga/Bleach Kenpachi Zaraki]] blush. Freya acts like a jerk to Azrael. Azrael is one of a few people who Baldur is willing to be nice to on a regular basis. Freya takes everything too seriously, while Baldur doesn’t take anything seriously. In battle, Freya is the most offensive character, while Baldur is the most defensive.
* GuysSmashGirlsShoot: Inverted. She wields a spear, when her male compatriots are a mage and a gunner.
* FourTemperamentEnsemble: Sanguine. She is spunky, impulsive, and slightly flirtatious.
* {{Leitmotif}}: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4L7o_Syx49U Jumper 2]]
* DeadpanSnarker: Was once one of the least snarky characters in the book, but the {{Retcon}} seems to have sharpened her tongue.
* AdaptationalBadass: Did no fighting before the {{Retcon}}, but after it, she manages to fight Azrael. She lost, but she kept him on his toes throughout the whole duel. She also manages to kill two of the Retarhydra's heads on her own.
* TheSmartGirl: Downplayed. While Azrael and Uriel are good at coming up with battle strategies on their own, Freya and Forseti are generally the ones who give information on enemies that the trio are otherwise unable to obtain.
* YaoiFangirl: Freya is one, hinted during the short at the end of Chapter 8. She was hoping that Azrael and Azazel meant something more... intimate... when they described their "experimenting on each other's bodies", and was disappointed when she learned it was just a series of weird science experiments.
* NeutralGood: Her InUniverse alignment.

[[/folder]]
[[folder: Azazel Hardrada]]

Azrael's older twin brother, who is a demon instead of an angel. It's all Hel's fault. HotBlooded, [[LargeHam hammy]], and [[TheDitz very scatterbrained]].

--> '''Colour:''' Orange
--> '''Weapon:''' [[SinisterScythe Illusr]]
--> '''Elemental Forte:''' Fire, Darkness
--> '''Unofficial Voice Actor:''' Creator/GideonEmery
--> '''Myriad Might:''' [[MightyGlacier The]] [[SuperStrength Killer]]

* HotBlooded: Enough said.
* IdiotHero: Sometimes, he charges into battle while putting in ''no'' thought to how he's going to go about things. His basic strategy is 'hit it till it dies'.
--> '''Azazel:''' FUCK STRATEGY! I'm going in and attacking!
* UnskilledButStrong: He lacks technique and speed in his fighting style. Not that he needs it, because his S ranked Physical Attack means that he's going to deal lots of damage anyway.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He's crude, big headed and loud, but he's really a big softy on the inside. He may care about his teammates, but it really doesn't show most of the time.
* AxCrazy: Downplayed, but he's not the most mentally stable person in the world.
* NobleMaleRoguishMale: Azazel is a HotBlooded asshole who enjoys killing his enemies, while his brother Azrael is a gentle pacifist who would rather not kill if it can be avoided.
* TeethClenchedTeamwork: With Siegfried, though it's mostly one sided on Siegfried's side. Also Uriel, but it's somewhat downplayed.
* RedOniBlueOni: The Red to just about everyone.
* ArrogantKungFuGuy: Very cocky and seems to view his team as beneath him, though he can rein it in during battle.
* AscendedDemon: May be a demon, but he fights sincerely in the name of Asgard. His battle against Mardas has him completely denounce any allegiance to Inferno, announcing that he is 'a demon of Odin'.
* PersonalityPowers: A HotBlooded guy with fire magic.
* TokenEvilTeammate: Until Azrael taught him about empathy for enemies, Azazel had no qualms about killing anyone who stood in his way.
* HeelFaceTurn: A curious case, since he was always a heroic version of TheStarscream for Inferno, so it's debatable how much of a 'Heel' he ever was in the first place.
* SmugSuper: For all his arrogance, he's usually able to put his money where his mouth is.
* NotSoAboveItAll: Inverted. He occasionally shows signs that he's ''more'' serious than he presents himself. He gives the others advice on fighting the Retarhydra, telling the others to shut up in the process, and when Uriel nearly gets everyone killed, ''he's'' the one to call her out.
* HiddenDepths: Has a very high amount of knowledge on the demon world. This is because he's a demon himself, and so had much more free reign around Inferno than Azrael and Uriel did when they were kidnapped. He's also an avid scientist, and performs science experiments with Azrael in their free time.
* CharacterDevelopment: It's minor, but as you read through the book, you can see him gradually getting smarter.
** And then a major one in Chapter 9, where Azrael teaches him empathy for his enemies, and he resolves to stop killing everything.
* FourTemperamentEnsemble: Choleric. He is HotBlooded, impulsive, and has mild anger issues.
* BoisterousBruiser: Not only is he capable of dealing the most damage of his team, but he's also the most loud and boisterous.
* MusclesAreMeaningless: He's got the highest Physical Attack in the book, tied with Freya and Crushadion, but he's just as scrawny as Azrael.
* ICallHimMrHappy: His ribcage is named Admiral Winkie.
* BigBrotherInstinct: ''Nobody'' harms Azrael on his watch.
* DeadpanSnarker: Sometimes gives Azrael a run for his money in this regard.
* ChaoticGood: His InUniverse alignment.

[[/folder]]
[[folder: Uriel Cross]]

Azrael's friend from when they were humans, who died after him in an AmbiguousSituation involving fire. Incredibly stoic and quiet, yet she can get a little flustered around other people, or when making physical contact.

--> '''Colour:''' Purple
--> '''Weapon:''' [[ArcherArchetype Conventus]]
--> '''Elemental Forte:''' Ice, Wind
--> '''Unofficial Voice Actress:''' Creator/ErikaHarlacher
--> '''Myriad Might:''' [[ColdSniper The]] [[SquishyWizard Sniper]]

* TheStoic: She doesn't display a lot of outward emotion.
* OnlySaneMan: Aside from Azrael, she's the only really normal one.
* MixAndMatchWeapon: Conventus' main gimmick is that it can transform into any melee weapon.
* HatesBeingTouched: Or, at least she's not used to it.
* FatalFlaw: Her ego rivals Azazel's, but unlike Azazel, she tends not to turn it off in the middle of battle. This came back to bite her in Chapter 8, as her insistence on doing things alone led to the trio getting eaten by the Retarhydra.
* FieryRedhead: Inverted, as she's aloof and graceful, even in battle.
* PersonalityPowers: She's the biggest example, being an cool and collected ice-user.
* {{Pun}}: She does this sometimes. She's even worse than Azrael.
* TheKnightsWhoSaySquee: Looks up to Siegfried like Azrael does. She may be this trope ''more'' than he is, as when Azrael meets Siegfried for the first time, his reaction is to sheepishly {{Squee}}, while Uriel's reaction upon meeting the Iron Knight is to ask for his autograph.
* TheSmartGirl: When Azrael isn't busting out strategies, it's her. The difference lies in that Azrael is better at planning for team battles, while Uriel's plans are best for duels.
* SquishyWizard: Her stats emphasise her Magic stats and Luck, while her Physical stats suffer.
* BornLucky: Statswise, Luck stats are generally high among the non-divine cast, and she still manages to have an S-rank, being the only one to do so. Storywise, she's the only non-Aesir so far to avoid the author's wrath, and has the fewest jokes at her expense.
* StraightManAndWiseGuy: The Straight to Azazel's Wise.
* ColdSniper
* GuysSmashGirlsShoot: She's a MageMarksman, where the two boys on her team wield a SinisterScythe and a SpellBlade.
* FourTemperamentEnsemble: Melancholic. She is stoic and cold, but has a strong sense of duty.
* WorthyOpponent: She and Crushadion are this to each other.
* DeadpanSnarker: Notably more 'deadpan' than the rest of the cast.
* AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther: Uriel is a BeleagueredAssistant to Forseti, since he's a BadBoss most of the time, but she's genuinely distraught when he goes missing in Chapter 7, suggesting she really does care about him.
* MurderByInaction: [[spoiler: Or rather, Suicide by Inaction. Her death came about when she was a human by allowing herself to die in the fire that burned down her house.]]
* LawfulGood: Her InUniverse alignment.

[[/folder]]
[[folder: Forseti]]

The God of Justice, and Uriel's MissionControl. Calm, levelheaded, and tactical, but also a massive {{Troll}}, at Uriel's expense.

--> '''Colour:''' Blue
--> '''Weapon:''' [[MagicWand Grimnis]]
--> '''Elemental Forte:''' Ice, Water
--> '''Unofficial Voice Actor:''' Creator/JMichaelTatum
--> '''Myriad Might:''' [[SquishyWizard The]] [[MightyGlacier Mourner]]

* MellowFellow: He is a lot more outwardly emotional than Uriel, but is still just as levelheaded as her.
* BadBoss: To Uriel. He wakes her up with firecrackers, and once hid an alligator under her bed.
* IAmVeryBritish: Speaks in a British accent, which may or may not be fake.
* DistressedDude: In Chapter 7, he is kidnapped by Crushadion.
* AnIcePerson
* CurbStompBattle: In a flashback in Chapter 5, he defeats Freya effortlessly, while only taking a single hit from her.
* SignatureMove: Ice Destina.
* ManChild: He's essentially 22 years old, yet he still acts somewhat immature, with his constant pranking of Uriel. Overall downplayed, though, as he's still a wise, intelligent character.
* FourTemperamentEnsemble: Leukine. He has a very balanced personality, and is right in the middle of his team's five-man RedOniBlueOni.
* TheSmartGuy: See Freya's entry for this trope above.
* AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther: Despite being an incredibly BadBoss to Uriel, and her considering him a complete moron in return, there are moments showing they truly do care for one another. In Forseti's case, he cares about his Guardian Angel enough to read her mind, learn that she wanted a gharial, and get Baldur to get Azazel to buy her one.
* NeutralGood: His InUniverse alignment.

[[/folder]]
[[folder: Baldur]]

The God of Light, and Azazel's unofficial MissionControl. He is incredibly cheeky and also a troll. Unlike Forseti, he has no preferred victim.

--> '''Colour:''' White
--> '''Weapon:''' Bjort (Hand Cannon)
--> '''Elemental Forte:''' Light
--> '''Unofficial Voice Actor:''' Creator/AnthonyDelRio
--> '''Myriad Might:''' N/A

* {{Troll}}: Loves messing with people. Unlike Forseti, however, he doesn't have a preferred target.
* StoneWall: Doesn't have much in the way of damage potential, but is nearly unkillable.
* BrattyHalfPint: Is only 11 years old. He's also one of the bigger douchebags in the story.
* LightEmUp
* TheTease: Does a little flirting with Azazel to get him pissed off. Also did it to Freya once in Chapter 8.
* TroublingUnchildlikeBehaviour: Despite being essentially 11 years old, he has a very profane vocabulary and happens to enjoy flirting with the other characters.
* HypocriticalHumor: Criticises Azazel for having unoriginal move names, but he has a move called 'Sun Blast', which blasts people with the sun. Azazel calls him out on this.
* {{Foil}}: To Freya. Both are the youngest members of the team. Freya has a relatively tame hairstyle, while Baldur’s hair would make Kenpachi Zaraki blush. Freya acts like a jerk to Azrael. Azrael is one of a few people who Baldur is willing to be nice to on a regular basis. Freya takes everything too seriously, while Baldur doesn’t take anything seriously. In battle, Freya is the most offensive character, while Baldur is the most defensive.
* TheHeart: In [[CompassionateCritic his]] [[CruelToBeKind own]] [[TricksterMentor way]].
* KiddieKid: Watches '[[WesternAnimation/PeppaPig Meppa Pig]]' and '[[WesternAnimation/DoraTheExplorer Ignora the Explora]].
* ChaoticNeutral: His InUniverse alignment.

[[/folder]]
[[folder: Nafir Hardrada]]

A DarkerAndEdgier EvilCounterpart to Azrael


[[/folder]]

!Inferno
Demons and other villains

[[folder: Hel]]

The BigBad of the story. In spite of her prestigious title as Queen of Inferno, she is impulsive, hot-tempered, and overall terrible at being a villain.

--> '''Colour:''' Dark Red
--> '''Weapon:''' [[MagicStaff Asprungnes]]
--> '''Elemental Forte:''' Darkness, Aether, Plant
--> '''Unofficial Voice Actor:''' Creator/JamieMarchi
--> '''Myriad Might:''' N/A

* StupidEvil / TooDumbToLive: Seemingly relies on the SortingAlgorithmOfEvil when choosing which enemies to send after the group, doesn't kill them when she should (i.e. immediately), and, as is pointed out a few times in the story, ''started a war over what happened 1000 years ago''. She also continually trusts Mani's advice when even the latter's Character Profile calls him an idiot. All this becomes much more stupid when you consider the lack of a fourth wall.
** Then again, Hel does seem unaware that she's in a story. This still doesn't redeem her much when you consider that this is common knowledge InUniverse.
* BerserkButton: Giving her a nickname. Just don't do it.
* HairTriggerTemper: Nearly all of her appearances have her getting pissed off for one reason or another.
* BreakingSpeech: Attempts this in the middle of Chapter 8, when she challenges Azrael and Uriel's beliefs, respectively. She's almost able to reduce Uriel to tears, but Azrael stays resolute in his beliefs.
* BigBad
* VillainBall: Definitely has a death-grip on it.
* RedOniBlueOni: The Red to her father Loki's Blue. She's HotBlooded and extremely petty, while Loki is soft-spoken and calculating.
* GenreBlind: Arguably the biggest hindrance in her plans. She doesn't seem to realise she's a fantasy villain, so she makes all the mistakes that fantasy villains make, as explained in StupidEvil above.
* SorcerousOverlord

[[/folder]]
[[folder: Mani]]

Hel's adviser, who once worked under her mother, Angrboda. He is very stupid, yet his advice continues to be trusted by those who employ him. The author doesn't know why, either.

* TheDragon: To Hel, and once to Angrboda.
* NumberTwoForBrains: Again, to Hel.
* DumbBlonde
* BewareTheSillyOnes: Featherbrained as he may be, this guy was directly responsible for ''both'' Cross Wars.
* WorfHadTheFlu: Has a decent stat distribution, and there's got to be ''some'' reason why Hel still keeps him around. He still managed to get his Myriad Might stolen by the much weaker Azazel, without even noticing.
* ButtMonkey
* EvilCounterpart / {{Foil}}: To Azazel. Both are rather unintelligent second in commands, both are the ButtMonkey, and both wielded the Killer Myriad Might. However, Mani works under the BigBad, while Azazel is a direct comrade for TheHero. Also, Azazel occasionally gets respect from his teammates, while Mani never does. Mani is incredibly loyal to Hel, while Azazel ended up betraying her. Finally, [[BrainsEvilBrawnGood Mani is a tactician, while Azazel is a fighter]].

[[/folder]]

!Humans

Humans. Characters who have not yet died, and still live on Midgard.

[[folder: Siegfried]]

A human with immense power, despite knowing no magic. Has a very DarkAndTroubledPast, which has made him incredibly cynical and jaded, but ultimately has a heart of gold.

--> '''Colour:''' Grey
--> '''Weapon:''' [[BadassNormal A regular longsword]]
--> '''Elemental Forte:''' None
--> '''Unofficial Voice Actor:''' Creator/TravisWillingham
--> '''Myriad Might:''' [[CriticalStatusBuff The]] [[LightningBruiser Knight]]

* TookALevelInBadass: Has inexplicably done this in every single one of his appearances. In Chapter 2, he's a fairly average fighter, being just on-par with the fairly low-ranking Abaddon. In his next appearance in Chapter 5, he's become a lot more powerful. Then, in Chapter 9, he manages to tie against Uriel, with nearly godlike powers. This is likely due to joining the Einherjar.
* SignatureMove: [[SwordBeam Sword Wave and its variants]].
* RedBaron: The Iron Knight.
* TeethClenchedTeamwork: Due to the latter being a demon, he doesn't think very highly of Azazel, and doesn't like being made to work with him. If anything, though, he acknowledges his worth as an ally.
* DeadpanSnarker: Like everyone else, but he still stands out as one of the snarkier characters.
* {{Foil}}: In a way, to Azrael. Azrael is a (somewhat) adept mage, while Siegfried has no magic. Azrael has C rank Physical Defense, while Siegfried’s is S rank. Azrael is friendly and easy to befriend, but Siegfried is tough and sour. Both had awful pasts, but Azrael seems to have taken his in stride and is trying not to let it get to him [[StepfordSmiler (at least, on the outside)]], while Siegfried took his horribly, and in his debut, his primary goal is {{Revenge}}.
* LightningBruiser: He's strong, tough, and also durable, but can't use magic. His reliance on the Sword Wave moves implies that they deal physical damage.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Not a very nice person, but he is still genuinely noble and heroic.
* WorldsStrongestMan: Strongly implied - the Einherjar accepted him even though he was still alive.
* TrueNeutral: His InUniverse alignment initially.
* LawfulNeutral: His alignment after joining the Einherjar.

[[/folder]]

[[folder: Abigail Fletcher]]

A human who met Azrael and Uriel when they were trapped in Inferno, and one of the 5 who survived the Bonus Chapters. Re-appears as a minor antagonist, only to become redeemed after Azrael bests her in battle.

--> '''Colour:''' Blue
--> '''Weapon:''' [[BladeOnAStick Blitz Frieden]]
--> '''Elemental Forte:''' Lightning
--> '''Unofficial Voice Actor:''' Creator/ErinFitzgerald
--> '''Myriad Might:''' [[JackOfAllStats The]] [[BladeOnAStick Lancer]]

* StupidEvil: As a villain, she isn't very smart in terms of how to go about her plan, even if the plan itself was pretty solid. Azazel sums it up nicely here:
--> '''Azazel:''' You waited for Uriel to die, but she's come back, now with the actual power to stop you. Then there's the fact that, wherever they are, everyone's either still alive, or in one of the afterlives, ALREADY RESURRECTED as an angel or demon. All the while, you've caused so much chaos and trouble, terrorising the townsfolk with your pig demons!
* TrueNeutral: Her InUniverse alignment, before she switches to NeutralGood.

[[/folder]]
[[folder: Azrael Hardrada]]

TheHero and the protagonist of the book. A GuileHero who's primary traits are being mellow, kind, and sarcastic. He often functions as the OnlySaneMan to the others' hijinks. He is seemingly unassuming, but can actually

--> '''Myriad Might:''' [[TeleportSpam The]] [[FragileSpeedster Trickster]]

* NiceGuy: Since Thor has essentially been PutOnABus, Azrael holds the title as the nicest character in the book.
* RedOniBlueOni: Out of the three, he's the Red to Uriel and the Blue to Azazel.
*** With Uriel, he's more optimistic and naive, while she's cynical and arrogant. He's the MellowFellow to her [[TheStoic Stoic]]. He also has a greater tendency to [[ComicalOverreacting comically overreact]].
*** With Azazel, Azrael is far kinder and calmer in comparison, in addition to being the finesse to his brother's force.
** The Blue to Freya's Red. Azrael is calm, mellow and snarky, in contrast to her GenkiGirl traits.
* FourTemperamentEnsemble: Phlegmatic. Azrael is mellow, kind, and snarky, and tries to be TheHeart. If anything, he's at least TheEgo of his team.
** During his NotSoAboveItAll moments, he's more Sanguine.
* GuileHero: Definitely more of this than [[ActionHero Azazel]] and Uriel. Many of his fights were won not through his strength, but rather his intelligence.
* ElementalPowers: [[LightEmUp Light]] and [[ShockAndAwe Lightning]].
* {{Leitmotif}}: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=afwK743PL2Y Hexagon Force]]
* ColorMotifs: Green. It's his eye-colour, the colour of his shirt, and even the colour of his [[YellowLightningBlueLightning lightning]].
* StockLightNovelHero
* GoodWeaponEvilWeapon: Between its looks and its characteristics, Blitzkrieg is most certainly a Good Weapon.
* TooGoodForThisSinfulEarth: As a human, he died at the young age of 14.
* IdiotHair: Has a massive one that Azazel and Freya have compared to an [[RagingStiffie erection]] on a few occasions. He's [[TheSmartGuy far from an idiot, though]].
* ForceAndFinesse: The flashy blade-master to Azazel's sluggish scythe-wielder.
* MinorInjuryOverreaction: While a punch from [[SuperStrength Azazel]] can hardly be considered 'minor', Azrael still completely over-sells it.
-->'''Azrael:''' Holy FUCK, Azazel! Why the fuck would you do that? You're basically a gorilla in a demon shaped package! I bet you could take the Moon out of its orbit! I think I dislocated my heart! You've crushed my hopes and my ribcage! Fuck! Is your fist made of iron? [[MusclesAreMeaningless How are you so scrawny yet so strong?]] I bet your workout partner is a fucking elephant! My spine is definitely stabbing my heart now! I hope you're happy now, you protein chomping, monkey armed, tank destroying duck!
* GoodIsNotDumb: Notably, he actually makes smart, rational decisions, only to get fucked over by the author anyway.
* NobleMaleRoguishMale: The Noble to Azazel and Siegfried's Roguish.
* HiddenDepths: There are a few subtle hints that his past has had more of an impact on him than he lets on.
* PreMortemOneLiner/BondOneLiner: His puns are meant to be this whenever he does one at the end of the battle. However, nobody is really impressed by them, and Iceaura even attempts to ''[[DisproportionateRetribution shoot him]]'' for it at one point.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: He's the sweetest boy you'll find on this side of The Sky, but get him mad and he ''will'' kick your ass.
* BewareTheSillyOnes: He's only behind Baldur and Azazel in terms of goofiness, but again, do ''not'' mess with him. He will not even give you time to regret it.
* NotSoAboveItAll: For all his uptightness, he truly is one of the sillier members of the cast.
* CatchPhrase: "It's time to judge!". Also has a more badass variant "It's time for your final judgement!"
* GoodIsNotSoft: Normally a pacifistic NiceGuy, but if he has to fight someone, he ''will''.
* TechnicalPacifist: He has no problem with fighting, but he won't kill anyone unless he absolutely has to, or if the potency of his attack is out of his control (as with Fafnir).
* FragileSpeedster: Has the highest Speed of the heroes, but his Physical Attack is average at best, and his Physical Defence is very low.
* IJustWantToBeBadass: Is a sweet boy with a few goofy moments, and is desperately trying to be badass.
* MageKiller: Actually has A+ Ranked Magic Defence. Combined with his Physical Attack (average) and Speed, he would be very good against enemy mages. Unfortunately, he hasn't encountered 'any' so far.
* LightIsGood: Wields the power of Light and is very heroic.
* TheComicallySerious: Downplayed, but compared to the rest of the group, he has relative difficulty taking a joke. A good example would be in Chapter 7, when he takes quite a while to understand that Freya's comment was a joke.
* TheKnightsWhoSaySquee: Idolises Siegfried, despite being TheHero.
* WhiteMage: Subverted big time. He has the stats of one, but his move pool contains only 2 non offensive moves. Everything else suggests an all-out attacker.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Overall. Azrael's a nice guy, but his tongue is sharp and he's sometimes rude to Freya. He's more on the 'Heart of Gold', part, though.
* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold
* LovableCoward: At the start of the story, Azrael was a bit of a coward with a low self-esteem, and he occasionally stutters. He's mostly, though not completely, grown out of it by now.
* DeadpanSnarker: In the WorldOfSnark that is this book, he still manages to stand out.
* LampshadeHanging / MetaGuy: Whenever the author stretches the reader's suspension of disbelief too far, Azrael will be the one to point it out.
%%zce* {{Foil}}: To [[PolarOppositeTwins Azazel]].
* BerserkButton: Underestimating him in any way is bound to get him pissed. The easiest way to do this is to call him 'small fry'.
** Making light of a situation he deems to be serious is another sure-fire way to get him angry. When Freya thinks the fight against Fenrir will be easy because he's been weakened (he hasn't), Azrael starts ranting.
* ServileSnarker: Despite Freya being his boss, she's definitely one of the most frequent victims of his sharp tongue. Also counts as SarcasticDevotee, given that he genuinely is loyal to her.
* LawfulGood: His InUniverse alignment.

[[/folder]]
[[folder: Freya]]

The resident LoveGoddess and MissionControl to Azrael. She is, at the same time, a NiceGirl and [[{{Jerkass}} an absolute bitch]], and is incredibly HotBlooded.

--> '''Colour:''' Red
--> '''Weapon:''' [[BladeOnAStick Vanadis]]
--> '''Elemental Forte:''' Fire, Light
--> '''UnofficialVoiceActress:''' Creator/CaitlinGlass
--> '''Myriad Might''': [[GlassCannon The]] [[BlackMagicianGirl Witch]]

* GenkiGirl: Incredibly lively and is always very cheerful.
* MoodSwinger: Can change between nice and mean at the drop of a hat.
* ShipTease: Has some with Azrael.
* HeartBeatDown: Many of her attacks look this way.
* ShapingYourAttacks: Hearts.
* NiceGirl: Half of the time, she is a very sweet and kind individual who provides morale support when needed.
* LoveGoddess
* TheTease: Downplayed compared to most, but some of her interactions with Azrael have a bit of subtext, thanks to her.
* {{Tsundere}}: Again, downplayed, but she's sort of this to Azrael.
* GlassCannon: She's got incredible attacking ability, but has little in the way of defense and stamina. It's part of why Azrael could beat her.
* {{Flight}}: Has a variant, but it's physically draining to use.
* HotBlooded
* BlackMagicianGirl: A hot blooded GenkiGirl who also happens to be a BlackMage.
* MagicKnight: Seems to prefer magic, but her Physical Attack and Magic Attack are equally high (S-rank).
* {{Foil}}: To Baldur. Both are the youngest members of the team. Freya has a relatively tame hairstyle, while Baldur’s hair would make [[Manga/Bleach Kenpachi Zaraki]] blush. Freya acts like a jerk to Azrael. Azrael is one of a few people who Baldur is willing to be nice to on a regular basis. Freya takes everything too seriously, while Baldur doesn’t take anything seriously. In battle, Freya is the most offensive character, while Baldur is the most defensive.
* GuysSmashGirlsShoot: Inverted. She wields a spear, when her male compatriots are a mage and a gunner.
* FourTemperamentEnsemble: Sanguine. She is spunky, impulsive, and slightly flirtatious.
* {{Leitmotif}}: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4L7o_Syx49U Jumper 2]]
* DeadpanSnarker: Was once one of the least snarky characters in the book, but the {{Retcon}} seems to have sharpened her tongue.
* AdaptationalBadass: Did no fighting before the {{Retcon}}, but after it, she manages to fight Azrael. She lost, but she kept him on his toes throughout the whole duel. She also manages to kill two of the Retarhydra's heads on her own.
* TheSmartGirl: Downplayed. While Azrael and Uriel are good at coming up with battle strategies on their own, Freya and Forseti are generally the ones who give information on enemies that the trio are otherwise unable to obtain.
* YaoiFangirl: Freya is one, hinted during the short at the end of Chapter 8. She was hoping that Azrael and Azazel meant something more... intimate... when they described their "experimenting on each other's bodies", and was disappointed when she learned it was just a series of weird science experiments.
* NeutralGood: Her InUniverse alignment.

[[/folder]]
[[folder: Azazel Hardrada]]

Azrael's older twin brother, who is a demon instead of an angel. It's all Hel's fault. HotBlooded, [[LargeHam hammy]], and [[TheDitz very scatterbrained]].

--> '''Colour:''' Orange
--> '''Weapon:''' [[SinisterScythe Illusr]]
--> '''Elemental Forte:''' Fire, Darkness
--> '''Unofficial Voice Actor:''' Creator/GideonEmery
--> '''Myriad Might:''' [[MightyGlacier The]] [[SuperStrength Killer]]

* HotBlooded: Enough said.
* IdiotHero: Sometimes, he charges into battle while putting in ''no'' thought to how he's going to go about things. His basic strategy is 'hit it till it dies'.
--> '''Azazel:''' FUCK STRATEGY! I'm going in and attacking!
* UnskilledButStrong: He lacks technique and speed in his fighting style. Not that he needs it, because his S ranked Physical Attack means that he's going to deal lots of damage anyway.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He's crude, big headed and loud, but he's really a big softy on the inside. He may care about his teammates, but it really doesn't show most of the time.
* AxCrazy: Downplayed, but he's not the most mentally stable person in the world.
* NobleMaleRoguishMale: Azazel is a HotBlooded asshole who enjoys killing his enemies, while his brother Azrael is a gentle pacifist who would rather not kill if it can be avoided.
* TeethClenchedTeamwork: With Siegfried, though it's mostly one sided on Siegfried's side. Also Uriel, but it's somewhat downplayed.
* RedOniBlueOni: The Red to just about everyone.
* ArrogantKungFuGuy: Very cocky and seems to view his team as beneath him, though he can rein it in during battle.
* AscendedDemon: May be a demon, but he fights sincerely in the name of Asgard. His battle against Mardas has him completely denounce any allegiance to Inferno, announcing that he is 'a demon of Odin'.
* PersonalityPowers: A HotBlooded guy with fire magic.
* TokenEvilTeammate: Until Azrael taught him about empathy for enemies, Azazel had no qualms about killing anyone who stood in his way.
* HeelFaceTurn: A curious case, since he was always a heroic version of TheStarscream for Inferno, so it's debatable how much of a 'Heel' he ever was in the first place.
* SmugSuper: For all his arrogance, he's usually able to put his money where his mouth is.
* NotSoAboveItAll: Inverted. He occasionally shows signs that he's ''more'' serious than he presents himself. He gives the others advice on fighting the Retarhydra, telling the others to shut up in the process, and when Uriel nearly gets everyone killed, ''he's'' the one to call her out.
* HiddenDepths: Has a very high amount of knowledge on the demon world. This is because he's a demon himself, and so had much more free reign around Inferno than Azrael and Uriel did when they were kidnapped. He's also an avid scientist, and performs science experiments with Azrael in their free time.
* CharacterDevelopment: It's minor, but as you read through the book, you can see him gradually getting smarter.
** And then a major one in Chapter 9, where Azrael teaches him empathy for his enemies, and he resolves to stop killing everything.
* FourTemperamentEnsemble: Choleric. He is HotBlooded, impulsive, and has mild anger issues.
* BoisterousBruiser: Not only is he capable of dealing the most damage of his team, but he's also the most loud and boisterous.
* MusclesAreMeaningless: He's got the highest Physical Attack in the book, tied with Freya and Crushadion, but he's just as scrawny as Azrael.
* ICallHimMrHappy: His ribcage is named Admiral Winkie.
* BigBrotherInstinct: ''Nobody'' harms Azrael on his watch.
* DeadpanSnarker: Sometimes gives Azrael a run for his money in this regard.
* ChaoticGood: His InUniverse alignment.

[[/folder]]
[[folder: Uriel Cross]]

Azrael's friend from when they were humans, who died after him in an AmbiguousSituation involving fire. Incredibly stoic and quiet, yet she can get a little flustered around other people, or when making physical contact.

--> '''Colour:''' Purple
--> '''Weapon:''' [[ArcherArchetype Conventus]]
--> '''Elemental Forte:''' Ice, Wind
--> '''Unofficial Voice Actress:''' Creator/ErikaHarlacher
--> '''Myriad Might:''' [[ColdSniper The]] [[SquishyWizard Sniper]]

* TheStoic: She doesn't display a lot of outward emotion.
* OnlySaneMan: Aside from Azrael, she's the only really normal one.
* MixAndMatchWeapon: Conventus' main gimmick is that it can transform into any melee weapon.
* HatesBeingTouched: Or, at least she's not used to it.
* FatalFlaw: Her ego rivals Azazel's, but unlike Azazel, she tends not to turn it off in the middle of battle. This came back to bite her in Chapter 8, as her insistence on doing things alone led to the trio getting eaten by the Retarhydra.
* FieryRedhead: Inverted, as she's aloof and graceful, even in battle.
* PersonalityPowers: She's the biggest example, being an cool and collected ice-user.
* {{Pun}}: She does this sometimes. She's even worse than Azrael.
* TheKnightsWhoSaySquee: Looks up to Siegfried like Azrael does. She may be this trope ''more'' than he is, as when Azrael meets Siegfried for the first time, his reaction is to sheepishly {{Squee}}, while Uriel's reaction upon meeting the Iron Knight is to ask for his autograph.
* TheSmartGirl: When Azrael isn't busting out strategies, it's her. The difference lies in that Azrael is better at planning for team battles, while Uriel's plans are best for duels.
* SquishyWizard: Her stats emphasise her Magic stats and Luck, while her Physical stats suffer.
* BornLucky: Statswise, Luck stats are generally high among the non-divine cast, and she still manages to have an S-rank, being the only one to do so. Storywise, she's the only non-Aesir so far to avoid the author's wrath, and has the fewest jokes at her expense.
* StraightManAndWiseGuy: The Straight to Azazel's Wise.
* ColdSniper
* GuysSmashGirlsShoot: She's a MageMarksman, where the two boys on her team wield a SinisterScythe and a SpellBlade.
* FourTemperamentEnsemble: Melancholic. She is stoic and cold, but has a strong sense of duty.
* WorthyOpponent: She and Crushadion are this to each other.
* DeadpanSnarker: Notably more 'deadpan' than the rest of the cast.
* AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther: Uriel is a BeleagueredAssistant to Forseti, since he's a BadBoss most of the time, but she's genuinely distraught when he goes missing in Chapter 7, suggesting she really does care about him.
* MurderByInaction: [[spoiler: Or rather, Suicide by Inaction. Her death came about when she was a human by allowing herself to die in the fire that burned down her house.]]
* LawfulGood: Her InUniverse alignment.

[[/folder]]
[[folder: Forseti]]

The God of Justice, and Uriel's MissionControl. Calm, levelheaded, and tactical, but also a massive {{Troll}}, at Uriel's expense.

--> '''Colour:''' Blue
--> '''Weapon:''' [[MagicWand Grimnis]]
--> '''Elemental Forte:''' Ice, Water
--> '''Unofficial Voice Actor:''' Creator/JMichaelTatum
--> '''Myriad Might:''' [[SquishyWizard The]] [[MightyGlacier Mourner]]

* MellowFellow: He is a lot more outwardly emotional than Uriel, but is still just as levelheaded as her.
* BadBoss: To Uriel. He wakes her up with firecrackers, and once hid an alligator under her bed.
* IAmVeryBritish: Speaks in a British accent, which may or may not be fake.
* DistressedDude: In Chapter 7, he is kidnapped by Crushadion.
* AnIcePerson
* CurbStompBattle: In a flashback in Chapter 5, he defeats Freya effortlessly, while only taking a single hit from her.
* SignatureMove: Ice Destina.
* ManChild: He's essentially 22 years old, yet he still acts somewhat immature, with his constant pranking of Uriel. Overall downplayed, though, as he's still a wise, intelligent character.
* FourTemperamentEnsemble: Leukine. He has a very balanced personality, and is right in the middle of his team's five-man RedOniBlueOni.
* TheSmartGuy: See Freya's entry for this trope above.
* AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther: Despite being an incredibly BadBoss to Uriel, and her considering him a complete moron in return, there are moments showing they truly do care for one another. In Forseti's case, he cares about his Guardian Angel enough to read her mind, learn that she wanted a gharial, and get Baldur to get Azazel to buy her one.
* NeutralGood: His InUniverse alignment.

[[/folder]]
[[folder: Baldur]]

The God of Light, and Azazel's unofficial MissionControl. He is incredibly cheeky and also a troll. Unlike Forseti, he has no preferred victim.

--> '''Colour:''' White
--> '''Weapon:''' Bjort (Hand Cannon)
--> '''Elemental Forte:''' Light
--> '''Unofficial Voice Actor:''' Creator/AnthonyDelRio
--> '''Myriad Might:''' N/A

* {{Troll}}: Loves messing with people. Unlike Forseti, however, he doesn't have a preferred target.
* StoneWall: Doesn't have much in the way of damage potential, but is nearly unkillable.
* BrattyHalfPint: Is only 11 years old. He's also one of the bigger douchebags in the story.
* LightEmUp
* TheTease: Does a little flirting with Azazel to get him pissed off. Also did it to Freya once in Chapter 8.
* TroublingUnchildlikeBehaviour: Despite being essentially 11 years old, he has a very profane vocabulary and happens to enjoy flirting with the other characters.
* HypocriticalHumor: Criticises Azazel for having unoriginal move names, but he has a move called 'Sun Blast', which blasts people with the sun. Azazel calls him out on this.
* {{Foil}}: To Freya. Both are the youngest members of the team. Freya has a relatively tame hairstyle, while Baldur’s hair would make Kenpachi Zaraki blush. Freya acts like a jerk to Azrael. Azrael is one of a few people who Baldur is willing to be nice to on a regular basis. Freya takes everything too seriously, while Baldur doesn’t take anything seriously. In battle, Freya is the most offensive character, while Baldur is the most defensive.
* TheHeart: In [[CompassionateCritic his]] [[CruelToBeKind own]] [[TricksterMentor way]].
* KiddieKid: Watches '[[WesternAnimation/PeppaPig Meppa Pig]]' and '[[WesternAnimation/DoraTheExplorer Ignora the Explora]].
* ChaoticNeutral: His InUniverse alignment.

A DarkerAndEdgier EvilCounterpart to Azrael


[[/folder]]

!Inferno
Demons and other villains

[[folder: Hel]]

The BigBad of the story. In spite of her prestigious title as Queen of Inferno, she is impulsive, hot-tempered, and overall terrible at being a villain.

--> '''Colour:''' Dark Red
--> '''Weapon:''' [[MagicStaff Asprungnes]]
--> '''Elemental Forte:''' Darkness, Aether, Plant
--> '''Unofficial Voice Actor:''' Creator/JamieMarchi
--> '''Myriad Might:''' N/A

* StupidEvil / TooDumbToLive: Seemingly relies on the SortingAlgorithmOfEvil when choosing which enemies to send after the group, doesn't kill them when she should (i.e. immediately), and, as is pointed out a few times in the story, ''started a war over what happened 1000 years ago''. She also continually trusts Mani's advice when even the latter's Character Profile calls him an idiot. All this becomes much more stupid when you consider the lack of a fourth wall.
** Then again, Hel does seem unaware that she's in a story. This still doesn't redeem her much when you consider that this is common knowledge InUniverse.
* BerserkButton: Giving her a nickname. Just don't do it.
* HairTriggerTemper: Nearly all of her appearances have her getting pissed off for one reason or another.
* BreakingSpeech: Attempts this in the middle of Chapter 8, when she challenges Azrael and Uriel's beliefs, respectively. She's almost able to reduce Uriel to tears, but Azrael stays resolute in his beliefs.
* BigBad
* VillainBall: Definitely has a death-grip on it.
* RedOniBlueOni: The Red to her father Loki's Blue. She's HotBlooded and extremely petty, while Loki is soft-spoken and calculating.
* GenreBlind: Arguably the biggest hindrance in her plans. She doesn't seem to realise she's a fantasy villain, so she makes all the mistakes that fantasy villains make, as explained in StupidEvil above.
* SorcerousOverlord

[[/folder]]
[[folder: Mani]]

Hel's adviser, who once worked under her mother, Angrboda. He is very stupid, yet his advice continues to be trusted by those who employ him. The author doesn't know why, either.

* TheDragon: To Hel, and once to Angrboda.
* NumberTwoForBrains: Again, to Hel.
* DumbBlonde
* BewareTheSillyOnes: Featherbrained as he may be, this guy was directly responsible for ''both'' Cross Wars.
* WorfHadTheFlu: Has a decent stat distribution, and there's got to be ''some'' reason why Hel still keeps him around. He still managed to get his Myriad Might stolen by the much weaker Azazel, without even noticing.
* ButtMonkey
* EvilCounterpart / {{Foil}}: To Azazel. Both are rather unintelligent second in commands, both are the ButtMonkey, and both wielded the Killer Myriad Might. However, Mani works under the BigBad, while Azazel is a direct comrade for TheHero. Also, Azazel occasionally gets respect from his teammates, while Mani never does. Mani is incredibly loyal to Hel, while Azazel ended up betraying her. Finally, [[BrainsEvilBrawnGood Mani is a tactician, while Azazel is a fighter]].

[[/folder]]

!Humans

Humans. Characters who have not yet died, and still live on Midgard.

[[folder: Siegfried]]

A human with immense power, despite knowing no magic. Has a very DarkAndTroubledPast, which has made him incredibly cynical and jaded, but ultimately has a heart of gold.

--> '''Colour:''' Grey
--> '''Weapon:''' [[BadassNormal A regular longsword]]
--> '''Elemental Forte:''' None
--> '''Unofficial Voice Actor:''' Creator/TravisWillingham
--> '''Myriad Might:''' [[CriticalStatusBuff The]] [[LightningBruiser Knight]]

* TookALevelInBadass: Has inexplicably done this in every single one of his appearances. In Chapter 2, he's a fairly average fighter, being just on-par with the fairly low-ranking Abaddon. In his next appearance in Chapter 5, he's become a lot more powerful. Then, in Chapter 9, he manages to tie against Uriel, with nearly godlike powers. This is likely due to joining the Einherjar.
* SignatureMove: [[SwordBeam Sword Wave and its variants]].
* RedBaron: The Iron Knight.
* TeethClenchedTeamwork: Due to the latter being a demon, he doesn't think very highly of Azazel, and doesn't like being made to work with him. If anything, though, he acknowledges his worth as an ally.
* DeadpanSnarker: Like everyone else, but he still stands out as one of the snarkier characters.
* {{Foil}}: In a way, to Azrael. Azrael is a (somewhat) adept mage, while Siegfried has no magic. Azrael has C rank Physical Defense, while Siegfried’s is S rank. Azrael is friendly and easy to befriend, but Siegfried is tough and sour. Both had awful pasts, but Azrael seems to have taken his in stride and is trying not to let it get to him [[StepfordSmiler (at least, on the outside)]], while Siegfried took his horribly, and in his debut, his primary goal is {{Revenge}}.
* LightningBruiser: He's strong, tough, and also durable, but can't use magic. His reliance on the Sword Wave moves implies that they deal physical damage.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Not a very nice person, but he is still genuinely noble and heroic.
* WorldsStrongestMan: Strongly implied - the Einherjar accepted him even though he was still alive.
* TrueNeutral: His InUniverse alignment initially.
* LawfulNeutral: His alignment after joining the Einherjar.

[[folder: Abigail Fletcher]]

A human who met Azrael and Uriel when they were trapped in Inferno, and one of the 5 who survived the Bonus Chapters. Re-appears as a minor antagonist, only to become redeemed after Azrael bests her in battle.

--> '''Weapon:''' [[BladeOnAStick Blitz Frieden]]
--> '''Elemental Forte:''' Lightning
--> '''Unofficial Voice Actor:''' Creator/ErinFitzgerald
--> '''Myriad Might:''' [[JackOfAllStats The]] [[BladeOnAStick Lancer]]

* StupidEvil: As a villain, she isn't very smart in terms of how to go about her plan, even if the plan itself was pretty solid. Azazel sums it up nicely here:
--> '''Azazel:''' You waited for Uriel to die, but she's come back, now with the actual power to stop you. Then there's the fact that, wherever they are, everyone's either still alive, or in one of the afterlives, ALREADY RESURRECTED as an angel or demon. All the while, you've caused so much chaos and trouble, terrorising the townsfolk with your pig demons!
* TrueNeutral: Her InUniverse alignment, before she switches to NeutralGood.

--> '''Azazel:''' You waited for Uriel to die, but she's come back, now with the actual power to stop you. Then there's the fact that, wherever they are, everyone's either still alive, or in one of the afterlives, ALREADY RESURRECTED as an angel or demon. All the while, you've caused so much chaos and trouble, terrorising the townsfolk with your pig demons!

She was hoping that Azrael and Azazel meant something more... intimate... when they described their "experimenting on each other's bodies", and was disappointed when she learned it was just a series of weird science experiments.

In Forseti's case, he cares about his Guardian Angel enough to read her mind, learn that she wanted a gharial, and get Baldur to get Azazel to buy her one.

* HiddenDepths: Has a surprisingly high amount of knowledge on the demon world. This is because he's a demon himself, and so had much more free reign around Inferno than Azrael and Uriel did when they were kidnapped. He's also an avid scientist, and performs science experiments with Azrael in their free time.

Azrael is friendly and easy to befriend, but Siegfried is tough and sour.

* StupidEvil / TooDumbToLive: Seemingly relies on the SortingAlgorithmOfEvil when choosing which enemies to send after the group, doesn't kill them when she should (i.e. immediately), and, as is pointed out a few times in the story, ''started a war over what happened 1000 years ago''. She also continually trusts Mani's advice when even the latter's Character Profile calls him an idiot. All this becomes much more stupid when you consider the lack of a fourth wall.
** Then again, Hel does seem unaware that she's in a story. This still doesn't redeem her much when you consider that this is common knowledge InUniverse.
