!!Waffle Ryebread [[quoteright:100:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/solatorobo_waffleTVT_7098.jpg]]

The protagonist of the game, a police officer trying to stop the Black Cats Gang from causing trouble for the people of Prairia. He has a history with the leader of the gang, Alicia Priss of the Priss sisters, having once been friends with her in their childhood. He doesn't understand why Alicia and her sisters are hurting the dog-people and hopes to make up with her.

He later makes a cameo in a game of the same continuity, ''VideoGame/{{Solatorobo}}'', showing up in Shepherd on patrol. Along with his sidekick Panta, he's trying to keep the Priss sisters from causing too much trouble.

-----
* ComplimentBackfire: In ''Solatorobo'', when Waffle tries to complement Alicia [[spoiler:for looking pretty in a princess dress]], she just gets mad at him [[spoiler:for comparing her to Therria]].
* DatingCatwoman: [[CatGirl Puns aside,]] Waffle and Alicia by Solatorobo.
* EdibleThemeNaming: Waffle Ryebread.

!!Panta
[[quoteright:100:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/solatorobo_pantaTVT_6419.jpg]]

The sidekick of Waffle Ryebread, who provides a minor role in allowing him to report to headquarters (i.e save) at certain points. Although he has hopes of capturing the Priss sisters himself, he's not the most intimidating officer on the force.

In the game ''Solatorobo'' he ends up showing up in Shepherd with Waffle on patrol. Along with his partner, he’s trying to keep the Priss sisters from causing too much trouble.

-----
* {{Chibi}}: Has more proportions of the chibi than others in the game, even missing a Caninu nose.

* FemaleFelineMaleMutt: Played straight pairing him and his partner across from the feline Priss sisters.

!!Alicia Priss
[[quoteright:100:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images//solatorobo_aliciaTVT_6463.jpg]]

One of the three Priss sisters and the leader of the Black Cats Gang, who's trying to steal several special crystals around Prairia under the guidance of a weapons merchant named Fool. In reality she's just seeking to make a home for the cat-people and believes that Fool will help them to do it, believing that her people suffer from the dog-people.

She makes an appearance in the game ''Solatorobo'', on vacation in Shepherd with Flare and Stair. Of course she can't resist causing some mischief—particularly to get Waffle’s attention—and drags her sisters along for the ride.

* EasilyForgiven: [[spoiler:By Waffle by the end; he doesn't even consider being angry at her for stealing the crystals and giving them to Fool.]]

One of the three Priss sisters of the Black Cats Gang, who's trying to steal several special crystals around Prairia under the guidance of a weapons merchant named Fool. She goes along with whatever her sister says, although she's a lot more critical out of the three.

One of the three Priss sisters of the Black Cats Gang, who's trying to steal several special crystals around Prairia under the guidance of a weapons merchant named Fool. She's the youngest of the three and, although she doesn't hate dog-people, she goes along with whatever Alicia says.

!!Princess Therria

The princess of Prairia, and an eventual love interest for Waffle. She's initially captured by the Black Cats Gang so that Waffle will hand over one of the crystals they need, but after she's freed she continues to try and help get the thieves brought to justice, while also making sure Waffle is recognized for his heroism.

She makes an appearance in the game ''Solatorobo'' while on vacation in Shepherd along with her bodyguard. Therria seems to have taking a liking to watching Duel Tournaments, so Red often runs into her there.

-----
* CoolCrown: Cute, dainty little gold crown that sits neatly between her ears.
* EverythingsBetterWithPrincesses: She seems to insert herself into enough situations that she thinks so.
* {{Fangirl}}: By ''Solatorobo'' she becomes Red's fangirl in the Duel Ship arena.
* ImpracticallyFancyOutfit: She walks around in forests, dank mining shafts, and other such environments. How is Therria able to walk around unhindered, much less [[DirtForcefield keep that dress clean]]?
* LoveTriangle: With Waffle and Alicia.
** By ''Solatorobo'' onTherria seems to have mostly given up on Waffle and is now interested in Red. Cyan finds this most improper, of course.
* OperaGloves: Part of her outfit.
* PaperThinDisguise: In ''Solatorobo''. Therria is "supposed" to be visiting Shepherd while under cover, so no one realizes she's the princess of the next kingdom over. Funny, you'd think that crown would kinda give it away...
* PimpedOutDress: Big, pink dress with GiantPoofySleeves.
* PrincessesPreferPink: Therria's dress is a very pale shade of pink with a darker bodice and skirt trim.
* RequisiteRoyalRegalia: Because [[ViewersAreMorons we obviously wouldn't recognize Therria or know she's a princess]] without her regalia.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Therria or Terria?

!!Cyan Garland

The captain of the guard and competition for Waffle when it comes to Therria--that is, if Waffle had any interest in competing. Although a bumbling guard who's mostly good for falling into traps to "warn" Waffle about it, he still aspires to have some of Waffle's glory.

He makes an appearance in Solatorobo as the bodyguard to Princess Therria from while she's on vacation in the Shepherd Republic. As Therria has taking a liking to watching Duel Tournaments, Cyan accompanies her and is continually impressed by Red’s skill.

-----
* KleptomaniacHero: In ''Solatorobo'', Cyan has a tendency to "borrow" others' robots for matches.
* KnightInShiningArmor: Cyan sees himself this way, though it mostly just leads to him showing off for Therria or looking ridiculous.
* MiniMecha: Cyan pilots one.
* NamedWeapons: Named Durandal. When he's not [[KleptomaniacHero using one he "borrowed"]], at least.
* StylishProtectionGear: Cyan's armor.
%%** BlingOfWar
%%** ShouldersOfDoom
* TookALevelInKindness: Cyan is much less of a glory-hound by Solatorobo, and in fact had begun showing shades of this when he [[spoiler:risked his life to help stop the Iron Giant]] near the end of the game.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Cyan’s is, well, cyan colored.
