Initially, he only accompanies the party briefly, but after [[spoiler: Alys' incapacitation]] he joins up for good.
* BlueOni: To Chaz' Red.
* {{Expy}}: Of Lutz from PhantasyStar. Justified in that [[spoiler: he actually is Lutz, reincarnated]].
* {{Jerkass}}: During his first stint in the party, he's quite rude and condescending to Chaz.
* LinearWarriorsQuadraticWizards: Inverted; during his first stint in the party, Rune is of a much higher level than your other party members, and can pretty much nuke any enemies you encounter on his own. When he later rejoins, he's still powerful, but not noticeably moreson than the warrior characters.
* SimpleStaff: His WeaponOfChoice; his physical attacks are [[ScratchDamage so weak]], however, that many players choose to forego them entirely in favor of having him [[DualWielding dual wield]] shields instead.
* SquishyWizard: The squishiest in the game.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair
* RedBaron: Alys "The Eight-Stroke Warrior" (or, more accurately translated, "Rip-Their-Guts-Out Lyla").
! Hahn Mahlay
A young scholar at the Motavian Academy, Hahn is the one who hires Alys and Chaz to look into the monster infestation in the Academy basement. When it turns out there's more to the situation than meets the eye, he tags along with Alys and Chaz to try to get to the bottom of the mystery.
* TheBlacksmith: It's his family's business; [[spoiler: toward the end of the game he forges a powerful dagger and shield which only he can equip]].
* ButtMonkey: During the first part of the game.
* KnifeNut: It's the only weapon he can equip.
* MyGirlBackHome: He has a fiancee in the village of Krup, his impending wedding to whom he mentions frequently. Subverted, however in that he doesn't die.
* TheSmartGuy: He is a scholar, after all.
* SquishyWizard: He has mediocre [=HP=] and [[NonActionGuy isn't very good at physical combat]], but his techniques and skills pack a wallop.
! Rune Walsh
An old friend of Alys', Rune is a [[DeadpanSnarker snarky]], [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair blue-haired]] wizard who possesses a gift rarely scene in Algo these days - the ability to perform true magic. Initially, he only accompanies the party briefly, but after [[spoiler: Alys' incapacitation]] he joins up for good.

! Chaz Ashley
Chaz is a [[KidHero 16 year old apprentice hunter]] serving under Alys in the town of Aiedo on Motavia. The mission to investigate the goings on at the Academy of Motavia is his first. While he begins the story as Alys' sidekick he eventually becomes the main protagonist of the story. While good-hearted and generally idealistic, he has quite a temper.
* CantDropTheHero: The only character who remains in the party from the beginning of the game to the end.
* HeroesPreferSwords: He's the only character in the game who can use them, actually.
* KidHero
* MagicKnight: Eventually gets both the most powerful physical attacks and the most powerful offensive magic in the game.
! Alys Brangwin
A veteran hunter, Alys is Chaz' mentor and surrogate parent. She's the main character of the early part of the game, but this changes after [[spoiler: she is incapacitated by, and later dies due to, an attack from Zio, the first of the game's villains]]. Brash and supremely confident, Alys is not above threatening people for money and/or information if it makes her job easier.
* ActionGirl
* BadAss
* CrutchCharacter: Initially, she's far more powerful than anyone else on your team, but she gains levels, stat increases, and abilities far more slowly than everyone else does, so they quickly catch up.
* DecoyProtagonist: You'd be forgiven for thinking she's the main character, given that her name and appearance [[{{Expy}} are so similar]] to those of the heroine of the first game in the series. She's not, though.
* [[spoiler: HeroicSacrifice: She saves Chaz's life by leaping in front of Zio's "Black Wave" attack, at the cost of her own.]]
* HotAmazon: {{Lampshade}}d repeatedly; every [=NPC=] you meet seems to comment on either A.)how beautiful Alys is, or B.)how great a warrior she is.
* [[spoiler: KilledOffForReal: Well before it happened to a certain [[FinalFantasyVII flower girl]], hence she's one of the first example of a major character being killed off in a [=JRPG=].]]
