I don't think whoever wrote this actually played it, the sprites absolutely do wear armor, Rika included; even if you couldn't tell by the front-facing frame, you'd know by her cape, which is part of her armor. The only sprites not showing armor of their most common type are the characters who are limited to "suit" armors (ie, reinforced regular clothing), Hahn and Seth. — The Profound Darkness has been waiting at MINIMUM three thousand years, with a one-thousand-year wait between active machinations, after literal billions of years of imprisonment; she's trying to rush out of the portal before it's fully open because the heroes don't NEED it to be fully open to enter her dimension and kill her.

Not a plot hole (even though it definitely feels like one) the Labs in PSII couldn't clone Nei because the DNA pattern they were drawing from was Neifirst's, which is why Nei dies even if she wins the fight. Gene can clone her because he has access to whatever was left of Neifirst and the research that produced her. It's not a plot hole, just.. kind of a betrayal of the spirit of the thing

* ClassifiedInformation: Making Titanium is the pride of the Motavians, and if asked about it he'll sarcastically tell the party that it's referred to as a secret for a reason.
* CoolChair: Subverted, as if you examine the chair he sits in Chaz will groan at how gaudy it is and say that whoever owns it has awful taste.
* DirtyOldMan: He found out Alys's measurements somehow and freely offers them to anyone who asks him for information.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: It's easy to dismiss him as just an old pervert but he did take in Gryz and Pana after they were orphaned. He also thanks the party for being good to Gryz if they come back and talk to him later in the game.
* KnowledgeBroker: It's his day job. Well, if we're being honest, his ''real'' job is to be MrExposition.
* MysteriousPast: Him and Rune have some history of working together, and Rune entrusted an item to his care.
* PeekABangs: His headshot image reveals that he has overgrown hair hiding one of his eyes, which might be why he didn't recognize Alys in the party before foolishly giving out her measurements.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Like all Motavians, he's covered in blue fur.

\\\
The artificial intelligence in charge of managing the Bio-Plant facility, Seed is Rika's surrogate father figure, having raised and educated the Numan for the year she was alive before meeting the Protectors. Unfortunately Seed is a subordinate AI to Nurvus, so when Zio usurps control of Nurvus from Demi, Seed is powerless to stop his own facility from producing Biomonsters en masse. After telling the Protectors what he knows and entrusting Rika to their care, he self-destructs to stop any further Biomonster production.

[[folder:Guardians of Rykros]]
-> '''JOB:''' Guards of the Towers of Rykros
\\\
A duo (actually trio) of EnergyBeings who guard the Towers of Rykros from any who might make off with their sacred treasures. Chaz and friends have to face two of them to prove themselves to Le Roof, and a third awaits for any players intrepid enough to do a little exploring.
----
* AchievementTestOfDestiny: The first two guardians, Sa-Lews and De-Vars, are mandatory battles the party must face as proof that they are indeed the Protectors of Algo.
* BlackMage: Sa-Lews is essentially like fighting a cosmic Rune, as all its attacks are Skills that he can use. These range from the now-laughable [[PlayingWithFire Flaeli]] to the less-amusing [[ShockAndAwe Tandle]] and [[LightEmUp Legeon]].
* BonusBoss: The third guardian, Re-Faze, is an optional encounter that will either give Chaz some nifty LastDiscMagic [[spoiler:or deep-fry his ass with said magic]].
* CosmicEntity: They're not flesh-and-blood creatures, but instead beings made of fire and light.
* CurbStompBattle: Chaz vs Re-Faze, and it's a beatdown for the ages.
* DetachmentCombat: De-Vars only has two attacks: firing off one of its arms, or firing off ''all'' of its arms with the "Disruptarm" attack.
* ElementalRockPaperScissors: Being holy beings themselves, they're all immune to Holy-type skills such as Efess and St. Fire.
* GoodIsNotNice: The third guardian, Re-Faze, [[spoiler:forces Chaz to fight an illusion of his deceased mentor Alys]].
* GoodIsNotSoft: They're all polite like Le Roof and happily give their treasures up once the Protectors have proven themselves, but they also don't hold anything back. In fact, when you meet the first two, you see them each trash waves of powerful Dark monsters before fighting them yourselves.
* HardTruthAesop: The message of Re-Faze: Anger and hatred are not evil. They're natural human emotions and can be channeled toward good ends.
* HonorBeforeReason: [[spoiler:If Chaz is unworthy of Megid, Re-Faze will kill him, even if that means that there's no champion left who can wield Elsydeon and fight the Profound Darkness. His duty to prevent an out-of-control DangerousForbiddenTechnique apparently trumps his duty to not see Algo destroyed by another force that already ''has'' it]].
* HopelessBossFight: [[spoiler:There is ''no'' way to win the Re-Faze fight. It has twice as much HP as any other enemy in the game, is faster than Chaz, and does nothing but spam Megid endlessly]].
* SecretTestOfCharacter: Unlike the first two guardians which are upfront upon testing the Protectors, [[spoiler:Re-Faze gives Chaz alone a nastier test where he has to fight and kill an illusion of Alys. Then Re-Faze offers to teach Chaz Megid, and if Chaz agrees, Re-Faze will kill him. Refusing Re-Faze's offer, ironically, is the only way to accept it, as that'll convince it that Chaz can be trusted with the technique]].
* SiblingYinYang: De-Vars is a bulky, masculine being who uses nothing but physical attacks, while its sibling Sa-Lews is a slender, feminine being who uses nothing but magic.
* TimeAbyss: Their age is never specified, but they are heavily implied to be as old as the Algo solar system itself.

* AllThereInTheManual: His DarkAndTroubledPast detailed below is only very vaguely hinted at in the game itself, with the ''Phantasy Star Compendium'' offering the full story. Notably, the town Chaz was originally from, Tiria, is not even in the final game.
* HappyEndingOverride: The game itself ends with [[spoiler:Chaz returning to Motavia with Rika to live out the rest of their days together]], but the ''Phantasy Star Compendium'' offers an addendum to that that reveals that [[spoiler:their happy ending would be brief, with Chaz dying of unexplained causes before he turned thirty and Rika raising their half-Numan child together alone]].
