History Characters / Radiant

* TheArcher: The only character in the series who fights with a bow, albeit with an unorthodox shooting style (his right hand is reversed when stretching his bow). He has the ImprobableAimingSkills to go with it [[spoiler:especially after becoming a Thaumaturge.]]

* DropTheHammer: Wields a big hammer that fits his imposing physique and LargeHam personality.

* ThouShaltNotKill: States that he can't take any more lives when Seth asks if he can do ''something'' to stop Hameline.

* MysteriousMist: Her Nemesis Skohell can create mist to hide itself, make surprise attacks and escape, [[spoiler: since is full of Fantasia, Seth and Diabal can use it to see anything inside it.]]

!!Cyfandir

[[folder:Queen Boadicée]]
[[quoteright:200:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/radiant_8.jpg]]
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/{{Yukana}} (Japanese), Kenneisha Thompson (English)

Queen of Cyfandir, a kingdom where the infected can live without fear of the Inquisition. She's a gigantic woman who has the strength to go with it… as well as the ego.

* KnuckleTattoos: Has the letters of "QUEEN" tatooed on each of her knuckles. Just another detail to emphasize her massive ego.
* LargeAndInCharge: Her infection turned her into a giant woman, taking StatuesqueStunner to a whole new level. She's also every bit as powerful and charismatic as her size suggests, and messing with her kingdom − home to thousands of sorcerers − is a very bad idea. It's safe to say her sole presence is part of the reason the Inquisition has left Cyfandir alone.
* ParentalSubstitute: Has [[spoiler:Myr and Jill's]] children magically transplanted into her womb so they can come to term after their mother is killed.
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Boadicée takes an immediate liking to Ocoho, advising her to take her occasional disregard for orders in moderation. [[spoiler: She even ends up naming Ocoho as her heir after the battle for her bravery in being willing to CallingTheOldManOut]].
* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: The way she talks about previous sorcerer-kings heavily implies her infection also affected her aging as well. She will likely outlive most other humans.
* ScarsAreForever: Boadicée ends up gaining a rather large scar on the left side of her face after her fight with Santori. Given her tendency to flaunt her beauty and her own sloth on the throne leading to dissention in her country, it could be a light case of LaserGuidedKarma. That said, she's not bothered by the scar at all and still views her beauty as unmatched.
* TheTease: To an absolute T. Boadicée is not ashamed to flaunt her beauty acting closer to an Idol rather than a Queen when speaking with her people. She also frequently has a habit of speaking in DoubleEntendre and makes several passes at Lord Brangoire to fluster him.

[[folder:Lord Brangoire]]
[[quoteright:200:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/brangoire.png]]
!!!'''Voiced By:''' Hiroshi Shirokuma (Japanese), Jamal Sterling (English)

The leader of the Magic Knights, who's as devoted to his Queen as he's demanding to his subordinates.

* DropTheHammer: Wields a big hammer that fits his imposing physique and LargeHam personality.
* TraitorShot: Has a few hooded ones when he's shown spying on Ocoho in volume 7. [[spoiler:It makes the heroes suspect him of being part of the conspiracy with the "Spectrums", but it turns out it was ''Ocoho'' who (unknowingly) took part in it. So he had very good reasons to spy on her.]]

[[folder:Mordred (WALKING SPOILER)]]

[[quoteright:200:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mordred_7.png]]
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/HarukiIshiya (Japanese), Lee George (English)

Childhood friend of Ocoho and an aspiring Magic Knight like her. Considered one of the most promising of his generation.

* ChildhoodFriend: He has known Ocoho ever since they were in school, along with their other friend Sagramor. Ocoho was implied to have a crush on him too… before she realized what he was.
* EtTuBrute: Volume 9 reveals that he was a spy sent by his father (a baron-merchant) and manipulated Ocoho to further the barons' plan to claim Cyfandir's land.
* LackOfEmpathy: His infection made him completely emotionless, so he has absolutely no qualms betraying and killing even his closest friends. After he kills Sagramor and Ocoho uses her [[PsychicLink Gysoni]] to control him, he feels every bit of her rage and sadness and begs her to stop. She makes the Gysoni ''stronger'' [[MindRape to punish him.]]
* MeaningfulName: He's named after [[Characters/ArthurianLegend Mordred]], nephew of King Arthur and the Knight of Treachery, infamous for being one of the main contributors to the Fall of Camelot.
* WalkingSpoiler: He only has a few scenes before his betrayal, meaning that most of his characterization occurs after it.

[[folder:Myr (WALKING SPOILER)]]
[[quoteright:200:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/myr.png]]
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Ben Philips (English)

An excentric man who hangs around Caislean Merlin, Cyfandir's capital, and has become rather infamous for his bad hygiene and bawdy songs. He wears a human-shaped beard with underpants. Because.

* AffectionateNickname: His full name is Myrddin, which was the real name of Merlin. Obviously, we don't learn that until much later in the arc.
* AlmightyJanitor: Behind his goofy exterior, he's able to communicate with plants and knows quite a bit of magic. Considering he's the ancient mage known as Merlin, it comes with the territory.
* HalfHumanHybrid: One of his parents was human, which prevented him from following the rest of the Small Folk when they left.
* LittlePeople: The last survivor of the "Small Folk", who were partly driven to extinction by the expansion of mankind and the subsequent rarefaction of Fantasia, which they fed on.
* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: He looks like a portly midlle-aged guy, but is actually 853 years old… and that's just counting his time spent in the human world.
* WalkingSpoiler: The reveal that he's Merlin changes everything we knew about him, which makes it next to impossible to mention him without spoiling.

[[folder:Yggdrajill]]

[[quoteright:200:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/jill_0.png]]
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KikukoInoue (Japanese), Creator/LuciChristian (English)

Myr's wife, she's a sentient tree who holds tremendous magic power and made their forest isolated from time and from humans.

* AffectionateNickname: Myr and Seth simply call her "Jill".
* NonMammalMammaries: Has a prominent chest and a cleavage despite being a wooden being…
* WiseTree: She's at least as old as Myr, and offers her advice and kindness to Seth and his party.

!!The Mesnie

[[folder:Engti Nocti]]

[[quoteright:200:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/la_mesnie.png]]

The "big sister" of the Mesnie, she's an inhuman monster who targets the infected to eat certain types of infections.

* CompellingVoice: Her voice can make anyone obey her orders or [[JediMindTrick forget that they saw her.]] The target's eyes turn red when they are under her control.
* ExtraEyes: Makes her look even more like a deformed spider.
* ThePowerOfBlood: Her blood is corrosive and can use it to damage enemies that injure her and melt even metals. She can also shape her blood as if it were an extension of her body including whips that can cut even through Fantasia barriers.

[[folder:Capula]]

[[quoteright:200:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/capula_3.PNG]]

The "little sister" of the Mesnie, she's a hungry little creature tagging along with Engti.

* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: Has green skin.
* HornedHumanoid: Has a huge spike on her head and can grow many all over her body.
* MagicEater: She can eat Fantasia, even barriers and weapons made of it.
* WingedHumanoid: Has feathered wings.

!!Bome Residents

[[folder:Herkles VII]]
* AmazonBrigade: His royal guard are all young women.
* CharlesAtlasSuperpower: Like Queen Boadicée, he's much larger and stronger than a normal person. ''Unlike'' her, he owes it to a lifetime of intense strength training, not a Nemesis infection.
* CoolOldGuy: He's an older man with a long, flowing white beard. He's also a muscle-bound giant of a man who's so strong and protective of the women in his royal guard that some of them complain that they never actually get to do their job of [[BodyguardingABadass protecting him]].
