to:

%%* CityMouse
%%* ClassyCatBurglar
* CityMouse: Rutee is constantly exasperated by Stahn's country mouse idealism and lack of knowledge, contrasting with her mean streak and street smarts.
* ClassyCatBurglar: Rutee is an attractive thief and Lens Hunter trying to raise enough money to save her childhood orphanage.



%%* GoldDigger: To save the orphanage where she grew up.

to:

%%* * GoldDigger: To save Rutee's is notoriously greedy and wealth-seeking.
* GreenEyedMonster: In
the orphanage where original, Rutee ''hates'' that Stahn goes on a date with Ilene. She follows him around the city on his date and [[spoiler:says [[SpeakIllOfTheDead she grew up.was glad Ilene killed herself]], earning a WhatTheHellHero moment from Stahn.]]



* JerkAss: In the original game, Rutee was a cruel, jealous, and spiteful woman who showed little regard for her allies and [[SpeakIllOfTheDead gleefully spoke ill of a woman who'd just killed herself out of despair.]] If not for her genuine care for the orphanage she grew up in she'd have few sympathetic traits. The remake greatly toned down the worst of her JerkAss behavior and had her show more kindness towards Mary and Philia.



%%* TheMedic: The only one in the party, though she's a Red Mage.

%%* TheBigGuy

to:

%%* TheBigGuy * TheBigGuy: He towers over the rest of the party members and is a muscle-bound badass.



* DumbMuscle: Across all adaptations. In the original he was a moronic JerkAss who believed women should StayInTheKitchen, which earned him an ass kicking from Stahn. In the remake he's still stupid enough to think he can fight the goddess Atamoni to make Philia marry him.



* HateSink: In the original, where his very first scene has him loudly show up insulting Ilene and women in general for no reason, prompting Stahn to beat him up. This was removed in the remake, where his idiocy is instead PlayedForLaughs and his misogyny is greatly toned down.

* YamatoNadeshiko: A hilarious subversion. With her pink dress and apron, she looks the part. With her weapon and love of housework, she has the skills for the part. With her rather [[LittleMissSnarker ''abrasive'']] personality...she is most definitely not the part.
