History Characters / SandsOfDestruction

* DistressedDude: No matter if it’s the anime, manga or video game, Kyrie will always get captured. UpToEleven in the anime where every other episode he gets captured and has to wait for his teammates to think of a plan to escape the Ferals.

* SupernaturalIsPurple: In the game, where her ability to see the future is a deep part of her character.

* RapunzelHair: It's down past her waist but doesn't seem to slow her down in the slightest.

* DangerouslyShortSkirt

* HumanMomNonhumanDad: The product of such a marriage, with an ordinary human woman and a Silverwolf father.

* FingerlessGloves

* CreepyCoolCrosses: In addition to the cross on his face, concept art shows that the ends of his whip have small crosses on them.

* FingerlessGloves

* CreepyCoolCrosses: The backs of her gloves have standard crosses on them, while the tops of her stockings have crosses with a halo (which makes them resemble the female symbol) and her shoe straps are designed to evoke crosses placed end-to-end. Her two hairpins worn in a crossed style could even be a continuation of the motif.

* CreepyCoolCrosses: Has a cross on his scarf and the back of his gloves, as well as a tattoo on his right shoulder.
* FingerlessGloves

* CreepyCoolCrosses: Has an upside-down cross motif on her skirt and wears a gold cross necklace, though the later is rarely visible due to being small and hidden behind a rather large bow. Her coat also has a large white cross on the tail.

* BadassBeard

* InstantAwesomeJustAddDragons

* ZettaiRyouiki: Grade A, using thigh high boots instead of socks.

* ZettaiRyouiki

* HairDecorations: A tiny crossed pair of clips holding her bangs.

* ManInWhite

* AllMenArePerverts: Subverted in the anime: one episode, he had the chance to look up Morte’s skirt because it had a huge tear in it and was getting bigger with every movement she made. Instead, he spent the entire episode trying to sew it back together instead of commenting on the rip. [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments It does not go well...]]

* {{Bishounen}}: More in the video game as in the anime, he's in the {{moe}} category.

* JerkassWoobie: In the anime.

* [[spoiler:AGodAmI: Eventually believes himself to be able to use Kyrie's power as the Destruct to recreate the world to his liking - with himself as its supreme ruler, of course.]]
* [[spoiler:ActuallyADoombot: The first time you fight him, it's just an automaton.]]
* [[spoiler:AffablyEvil: In the game, he’s polite to the characters even after revealing his true motives.]]

* [[spoiler:BigBad: In the anime and the game he’s manipulating everyone to gain control of the Destruct and become a god.]]

* [[spoiler:InThierOwnImage: What he plans to do.]]

* [[spoiler:RunningBothSides: He exerts control over the other Beastlords via manipulation, and is also the leader of the World Annihilation Front.]]
* [[spoiler:TreacherousAdvisor: He’s the boss of the World Annihilation Front, and the one who gives Morte her instructions, but he’s using her to [[AGodAmI become a god]].]]

* HeroicAlbino

* PurpleEyes: To mark her as a dragon.

* PettingZooPeople: Resembles a large, mannish lion.

* PettingZooPeople: He's capable of transforming into a much more wolfy form when he needs to, usually using it to move faster or complete feats of strength or agility that human limbs can't accomplish.

* GreenEyes: Certainly has the temperament expected of it.

* VillainousGlutton: In the game, his belly even has a second mouth in his OneWingedAngel form.

* YouMonster: In the video game, she says this (and becomes her final Quip) to Lacertus Rex [[spoiler:upon finding out he wants to make a new world with humans as the base material]].

* WhoWouldBeStupidEnough: In the anime, he tends to fall for the stupidest things. One episode comes to mind where he talks to this robot over again telling it that he and Rhia are part of the World Salvation Committee (which the robot messes up because Alligator Lord did not want them interfering with his plans.) Naturally, Rhia is seen as the smarter one of the two in this situation where using violence actually got her somewhere.

* AGodAmI: [[spoiler:Eventually believes himself to be able to use Kyrie's power as the Destruct to recreate the world to his liking - with himself as its supreme ruler, of course.]]
* ActuallyADoombot: [[spoiler:The first time you fight him, it's just an automaton.]]
* AffablyEvil: [[spoiler:In the game.]]

* FauxAffablyEvil: In the manga. [[spoiler:And video game.]]
* NeverSmileAtACrocodile: In the anime and manga, he's clearly evil. In the game, he's actually rather helpful [[spoiler:the first time you meet him, but that's only because he wants Kyrie's powers for himself.]]

* ReptilesAreAbhorrent: In the anime and manga. [[spoiler:And game.]]

[[folder:Celestial Beings (spoilers for final boss and manga)]]

* AdaptedOut: Is not mentioned in the anime or manga.
* BiggerBad: Of a sort.

* GodIsEvil
* GreaterScopeVillain: She isn't even ''mentioned'' for most of the plot, but [[spoiler:she's the one who created Kyrie's powers in order to use him to destroy the world]].

* LukeIAmYourFather: [[spoiler:She's actually Kyrie's mom.]]

* ArchangelUriel: ''Vreveil'' is actually an alternate name for Uriel (in some interpretations of Literature/TheBookOfEnoch, anyway). He's got both the [[LightEmUp Light]] and [[TheGrimReaper Death]] facets pretty well covered.

* NotSoStoic: Until the end of the manga, when [[spoiler:Kyrie realizes he has Creator powers as well as Destruct powers]]. Suddenly Vreveil becomes capable of extremely intense shock, anger, perhaps even fear...[[spoiler:and then smiles as he dies, as he's finally free of his fate.]]

* WingedHumanoid: Six of them.

* HateSink: The game is slow about trotting out its true BigBad, so Rajiv is there for the first third of the game to give you someone to really hate.

* [[spoiler:TheAtoner: In the manga, his powers went out of control and he ended up killing everyone in a village as a result. He leaves Morte in order to find a way to control his powers.]]

* [[CatGirl Cat Boy]]: When he needs a disguise, he will disguise himself as a cat boy. An adorable one you might add.

** [[spoiler: BreakTheCutie: In the manga and video game.]]

* [[spoiler:DrivenToSuicide: In the video game, after failing to control his powers for a second time, he asks Naja to kill him.]]

* [[spoiler: EleventhHourSuperpower: In all versions, he eventually gets a large bump in power right at the end. In the anime, he remembers his identity and thus regains his ability to turn anything he wants into sand. In the game, he gets a powered-up fight mode about halfway through the game, but doesn't reveal that he's also now immune to the Destruct Code's order to destroy the world until just before the final fight. In the manga, he suddenly realizes his humanity grants him the powers of a Creator as well as a Destroyer in the middle of the final battle.]]

** Kind of a subversion, but in one episode in the anime where he, Morte and Toppi were captured, he was the only one who had an outfit change when he was working in the kitchen.

* [[spoiler:IAmNotAGun: In the game, the Destruct is a creation of the will of the world to be brought to its natural end. Kyrie is ''not'' pleased to learn his identity is a lie.]]

* [[ImTakingHerHomeWithMe I’m Taking Him Home With Me!]]: Kyrie does this to Toppi in the manga because he insists that Toppi is a teddy bear. Toppi is not amused.

** PoisonousPerson

* MoralityPet[=/=]MoralityChain: Mainly to Morte but applies to the whole group. [[spoiler: In the manga, after he gets into a fight with Morte, the group splits up.]]
** [[spoiler:MoralityChainBeyondTheGrave]]: For a time in the middle of the game. [[spoiler:He gets better.]]

* [[spoiler: ObfuscatingStupidity: In the manga he knows he’s a dangerous person and tries to play it off that he isn’t. Too bad he’s in a series where every character is very observant.]]
* [[spoiler: OneManArmy: In the anime, he single handedly took out his enemies before trying to engulf the world in sand. Thank god Morte stopped him.]]

* [[spoiler: [[RedEyesTakeWarning Red Hair Take Warning]]]]

* [[spoiler: StepfordSmiler: In the manga, after killing an entire village with his powers, he is forced to put on a smile, while in the video game, the longer it takes to control his power, the sadder he gets, so he ends up being Type A. This is also true in the video game as time goes on but subverted in the anime.]]

* FlatCharacter: In the video game where her actions aren’t explained. Lampshaded when [[spoiler:she complains nothing happens to her in the Depths of Memory]].
** Ironically, this is subverted to hell and back in the anime [[spoiler: because she's the first one to be affected by the Depths of Memories and is the only character that wanted to remain there because she would rather live in a time of happiness instead of knowing the future.]]

** JerkassWoobie: In the anime.
** JerkWithAHeartOfGold: In the anime, and to some extent in the game as well.

* [[spoiler:TheKidWithTheRemoteControl]]: In the game, the Crimson Sun eventually decides to teach her [[spoiler:the words that control Kyrie's Destruct powers.]] It's just as well, considering she's the only one he'd listen to at that point anyway. [[spoiler:Luckily, most of her crazy has been turned to more constructive uses by then; she now intends to use his powers to recreate the world.]]

* [[OneManArmy One Woman Army]]: She can take out groups of enemies by herself with ease. However, the only thing that prevents her from going on a killing rampage is when Kyrie gets himself captured.

* [[LastofHisKind Last of Her Kind]]: In the game. In the anime, she mentions family in Dragon Valley, though when we get there, it's got nothing but large skeletons (she doesn't react, though, so apparently the place always looks like that).

** HalfBreedDiscrimination: No one lets him forget he's a half-breed because of this. Many of his peers at work insult him due to the standing of humans as slaves, mocking that his blood or Naja himself smells of human and even treating him terribly despite his possibly high rank. Rajiv, who Naja works under, insults Naja almost immediately after the game starts and calls him out for his half-breed species in the manga. In the anime, it doesn't even seem like the boss of the entire World Salvation Committee likes Naja.
* [[spoiler: HeelFaceTurn: In the video game.]]

** SnakesAreSinister

* [[spoiler:TheAtoner:]] In the anime. [[spoiler:He used to be a great general and killed many humans, but has since dedicated himself to helping everyone regardless of race.]]

* [[spoiler:LoneWolfBoss]]: In the game, as the Front makes their way toward the Temple of Light [[spoiler:he attempts to stop them, as detailed under Good Is Not Soft. He seems to take no issue with humans and has no part in the political machinations of the rest of the Beastlords, but is still set against the party.]]

* [[spoiler:ActuallyADoombot: The first time you fight him, it's just an automaton.]]
* [[spoiler:AffablyEvil: In the game.]]
* [[spoiler:AmbitionIsEvil: It leads to delusions of godhood.]]
* [[spoiler:AGodAmI: Eventually believes himself to be able to use Kyrie's power as the Destruct to recreate the world to his liking - with himself as its supreme ruler, of course.]]

* [[spoiler:TheUnfought: Among all the Primal Lords, he's the only one you don't fight. Instead, he willingly reverts to his egg form in order to give Kyrie his body back.]]

** NotSoStoic: Until the end of the manga, when [[spoiler:Kyrie realizes he has Creator powers as well as Destruct powers]]. Suddenly Vreveil becomes capable of extremely intense shock, anger, perhaps even fear...[[spoiler:and then smiles as he dies, as he's finally free of his fate.]]

** JerkWithAHeartOfGold: In the manga. He's still got a really abrasive personality, but ''does'' genuinely desire good for the world.

* [[spoiler:SacrificialLion: He's one of Kyrie's victims the second time he loses control of his powers.]]

* AdaptationalWimp: In the anime, though not to the same degree as Kirie. While he's shown to at least be able to hold his own enough to take out a guard on his own, he isn't suggested to be a particularly skilled combatant and rarely ever fights at all.

* DeadpanSnarker

* NiceHat

* TheSmartGuy

%%* TheChick

* [[spoiler: TheSixthRanger: In the game.]]

* GenreSavvy: In the anime where Kyrie proves that the world can live with humans and Ferals, despite what others believe.

* GenreSavvy:: In the video game where she proves to be right on most occasions.

* BaconAddiction: Her favorite food is a sandwhale bacon sandwich.

* TheChick

* MoreDakka + BeamSpam: Her in-game Requiem FinishingMove.

* GenericCuteness: Apparently suffers from it, as while Morte is [[InformedAttractiveness stated to be very pretty]], Rhi'a has a near-identical face and similar figure, yet her appearance is never commented on (except by one random NPC on the Zifnir who you may miss if you don't TalkToEveryone, and who [[LostForever is only around for that one brief level]]).

[[/folder]]

* {{Badass}}: She has held her own against the World Salvation committee for years before she met Kyrie.
** BadassInDistress:
*** In the anime where she wouldn’t tell the Ferals where Kyrie and the Destruct Code were despite being beaten (almost to death).
*** In the game, [[spoiler:she briefly ends up brainwashed by Serpens Rex, then is cursed by her and nearly dies]].
*** In the manga, she's taken captive by [[spoiler:Lacertus and Aquila Rex, who have betrayed her trust in the World Destruction Committee]]. [[DefiantCaptive She doesn't stay distressed for long]]. [[spoiler:Then she has a realization so horrible that she momentarily forgets how to fight, and winds up in ''serious'' danger because of it.]]
** BadassLongcoat: Sans sleeves.

* {{Badass}}
** BadassAdorable: He kicks ass! This does not stop small children (or Kyrie) from squeeing over him.
** BadassArmfold: One of his favored poses, including his VictoryPose in the game.

* {{Badass}}
** BadassInDistress: In the video game, he gets captured by the beast men and the group has to save him before he ends up in a FateWorseThanDeath situation.

* {{Badass}}: Her game counterpart but her anime counterpart has some good moments.
** BadassBandolier: Her double-belt is actually a string of ammo. Interestingly, she still wears it in the manga, despite not having her guns there.
