History Characters / ShangriLaFrontier

* IntrepidMerchant: Wanders around the various settlements within ''SLF'', buying and selling unusual goods while using some [[VoluntaryShapeshifting]] to hide his identity as a Vorpal Rabbit to avoid trouble.

* EstablishingCharacterMoment: When we first meet him, [[SherlockScan he's able to spout off quite a bit of lore about the disguise Sunraku is wearing after only a few seconds of looking at it]], showing that he's quite knowledgable about the game's lore and story, even the more obscure aspects of it.

Rakurou's classmate who has a crush on him. In an attempt to get closer to him, she started playing ''SLF'' with the long term goal of getting Rakurou to play it and spend time with him in-game, but her shyness stopped her from actually putting said plan into motion. As she kept playing, she became a top player of ''SLF''.

* {{Curse}}: Like Lycagon, it can inflict one on players that battle it. It's currently unclear Siegwurm's curse is different from Lycagon's in any notable way, though it seemingly also affects NPC interactions like the "Markings of Lycagon," [[spoiler:as seen with Akane, the second player to trigger the same Rabituza Unique Scenario as Sunraku did]].

!Main Characters

* DamagerHealerTank: The trio team up in ''SLF'' to fight against [[spoiler:one of Ctarnidd's blockers]], with Sunraku acting as an evasion tank, Rust attacking the target using her [[MasterArcher various bows]], and Mordo supporting the other two with [[WhiteMage healing and protective spells]].

* {{Expy}}: Their clothing resembles the Novice class of ''Videogame/RagnarokOnline''.

[[folder:Rust and Mordo]]

* {{Otaku}}: Rust is a ''major'' one for mechs, specifically for pilotable {{Mecha}}, though anything sufficiently robotic can catch her attention.

* RedEyesTakeWarning: When Wezaemon enters the third phase of his fight, his blue eyes shift to red, signifying his much more aggressive fighting style that leaves no room for error for anyone sparring with him.

* FragileSpeedster: Sunraku's build invests all his stats into his speed and its critical hit damage instead of any level of defense or HP. This is Rakurou's preferred way of playing, and he seems to do it in all games, attempting to get 0 hits from enemies.

* GlassCannon: Sunraku mentions that, with the Lycagon's Mark curse on him, he is stuck with this kind of build. The curse forbids him from using any armor in any place marked, which is his entire body sans his head, meaning he has inherently no reason to invest in health and resistance, dumping all his points in speed, stamina, and luck. This is enhanced with his Arcanum, which allows him to spam attacks even faster, in exchange for making healing less reliable.

* ManOfKryptonite: Thanks to the Mark of Lycagon, Sunraku is able to NoSell any curse effect that's weaker than the Mark itself (meaning virtually any curse that doesn't come from another UM). This proves to be veryt effective against bosses like the Humming Lich, as it negates some of his more dangerous abilities.

* OneCurseLimit: The Mark of Lycagon is a curse with a special property that protects hi against any curses or debuffs weaker than the Mark itself. It takes a very powerful monster, such as the Abhorrent Woodmage, to override this protection.

* BedsheetGhost: Due to Sunraku becoming too recognizable in ''SLF'' thanks to his cursed markings that can't be covered up (as the {{Curse}} prevents any items from being equipped on any parts of his body with the markings on them), he sometimes wear an equipable item that essentially looks like a bedsheet with eyeholes in it, making him look like this trope. He only wears this disguise when he really wants to be anonymous, as it's not exactly inconspicuous but it does cover the whole body (the curse doesn't apply to it because it's [[LoopholeAbuse technically just a piece of headgear, and the marks aren't on Sunraku's head]]).

Two players Sunraku had first met in another full dive MMO, ''Nephilim Hollow'', a custom mecha fighting game. Rust, a {{Mecha}} {{Otaku}}, is the number one player in their server (with her and Sunraku battling to a draw in their last match against each) and Mordo is her calm right hand man. They later reveal that they had played ''SLF'' before giving up, as it seemed to lack any pilotable robots to Rust's disappointment, until their interest is reignited by Sunraku's slip of the tongue regarding [[spoiler:certain mecha he had access to as one of the rewards from defeating Wezaemon, but couldn't use due to his curse]]. They also reveal that they had found a certain quest that [[spoiler:might lead to the Unique Scenario for fighting Ctarnidd]].

* SherlockScan: When she first meets Sunraku while he's in one of his disguises (a special kind of headgear that can cover his whole body, including the curse marks - it essentially looks like an accessorized bedsheet with eye holes cut in), the Professor instantly recognizes the item, including some of the lore around it and how it's usually only available from a certain travelling merchant.

* TheGreatSerpent

* WakeUpCallBoss: It's the first real challenge Sunraku faces in ''Shangra-la Frontier''; as he notes that despite a beginner level boss, it's challenging enough that it convinces him that ''SLF'' is as high quality as people claim.

* LimitBreak: His ''Clear Sky Conquest'', which is only activated during the third phase. It mainly removes the time lag between his attacks; allowing for continuous spamming, and if the player survives long enough, he'll unleash a vertical OneHitKill slash that's impossible to dodge or block. [[spoiler: The only way to counter it is to either use resurrection crystals to revive after being struck, and to have enough to last the remaining 10 minutes, or to parry the attack, but the window is so tight that you need a slew of buffs just to have a chance to do so and anything less than a Perfect Parry will result in the weapon being broken through]].

* OneHitKill: He has several attacks that end players in one hit, most likely because the beginning of his boss battle reduces any opponent's level to a quarter of his own. The fight against him involves learning to dodge them for long enough for him to switch to a next stage.

* SacrificedBasicSkillForAwesomeTraining: Their monk class exchanges any proficiency in armor or weapons for the ability to [[SelfEnhancement cast buffs that greatly enhance their defense and offense]].
