!!Lars
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lost_technology_lars.jpg]]

The boss of Alcatraz, the organization that controls the former penal colony Electris. Technically does not do anything illegal because there is no law in the region. He profits from smuggling, prostitution, and assassination, yet he's against selling drugs.

The daughter of Gug's reigning monarch.

!!Crow

Bandicoot's lackey. Still young, he has an exceptional talent, and Bandicoot sees him as a way to usurp power from Democrisia.

* AChildShallLeadThem: Deconstructed; as a result of her age, she reigns as a puppet. Oddly, even though all of her administration is run by her prime minister, she can make a rather effective battlefield commander.

* StoryBranching: Their campaign has two different endings, with the split occurring if [[spoiler:Ortygia gets captured by an enemy while it's completely surrounded by enemies, while Agnes is situated there, and while Diethard is situated elsewhere on the map (easiest if the player manually dismisses him from their army)]]. On the unlockable route, there's an additional split dependent on [[spoiler:if Diethart seeks aid from Kunitz, Musket, or Castus, although Castus does not have as many story events as the other two options]].

* IncorruptiblePurePureness: Taking care of others makes her happy.

* DarkAndTroubledPast: Grew up poor, with an abusive father, raising snakes in the hopes that one would be capable of speaking and could get them money. When Ishak successfully befriended one and taught it speech, he had to keep it a secret so they wouldn't be separated, hiding him in an ancient ruin with some religious texts. The father beat him for his unexplained sneaking off, [[SelfMadeOrphan until...]]

* LastOfHisKind: Her motivation is preventing this, and finding other Dragon Knights before the dragons go extinct, since both Smaug and Suzaku (the other girl's dragon) are male.

[[folder:Kunitz Knights]]

The leader of a group of knights that fight for justice, though clearly distinguished from traditional chivalry and focused on human rights. At first glance, he comes across as a wide-eyed idealist, but he does have a dark side and is willing to do anything for the realization of his dreams.

!!Filine

[[folder:Rion]]
!!Shades
The leader of the beast-people of Rion. His father died in battle against humans. He values trust, but due to his youth, can be easily tricked by cunning adults.

He is well-respected as the world's best blacksmith, but he's arrogant and frequently rages, which has led both friends and foes to dislike him.

* DecoyProtagonist: In their campaign, [[spoiler:Nickel inherits leadership]].

!!Nickel
Chromium's human disciple, having sought him out to learn dwarven crafting techniques. He's stuck around for four years without being taught much, and has earned the respect of other dwarves for being able to put up with Chromium's bad attitude.

She wearily watches Smaug, the dragon she has taken care off since she was a girl, grey by the year. She wants to set out on a journey to find a mate for him, but does not want to abandon Bradley to the wastes. That is, until the day a girl on a dragon-mount of non-Fevnir lineage appears before her. The girl had set out on a journey of her own to find a mate for her beloved dragon, and word of Fevnir’s descendants had led her to them. Scarlett’s and the girl’s dragon are both male, making breeding impossible. But Scarlett comes away from the encounter knowing that dragon knights outside of those of Fevnir exist, and she is intent on finding them. Even if means taking over the world to do it.

* LastOfHisKind: Her motivation is preventing this, and finding other Dragon Knights before the dragons go extinct.

* SecretCharacter: Her faction isn't available to play as until clearing Musket's storyline, which involves a mandatory confrontation between the two forces.

* DarkMessiah: Uses religion in order to tempt the masses and gain massive political power.
