* MagicLibrarian: It's not clear if he can use magic by himself, but he does watch over books [[spoiler:with magical properties]] and it's safe to assume he has extensive knowledge on magic himself.

Added DiffLines:

* DoesNotLikeShoes: Played with. He does wear boots, but for some reason his clawed toes stick out in openings cut out in the toe of the boot. You probably won't notice unless you look at his full sprite in the art book, though.


Added DiffLines:

* MeaningfulName: His name is Indigo and his skin is indigo colored.

* MysteriousPast: Where did he come from? How did he become the librarian? Why did he choose this as a job? We might never know.
* MysteriousStranger: Aside from the face that he works as the librarian and he [[spoiler:is the one to test people to see if they are worthy to use the power of the coins]], next to nothing is actually known about him as a person, let alone his past.


Added DiffLines:

* ObfuscatingStupidity: Downplayed. He doesn't act outright stupid, but he does pretend to be ignorant about certain things [[spoiler: until the crew can pass one of his book tests. Then he'll reveal ''some'' of what he knows, but not necessarily everything.]]

* SquishyWizard: Has some magical knowledge but he [[spoiler:easily dies in one ending where Lazerby shoots him.]]

* [[spoiler:FinalBoss]]: Well, not in the traditional sense, but he ''is'' usually [[spoiler: the last NPC encountered and seen by the crew in most runs of the game]] and he is the one to [[spoiler: trap people inside magic books in order to test their character. Those that pass are given the opportunity to use the coins to change the world.]]


Added DiffLines:

* IconicOutfit: Dresses in the same style of clothes that every other shark in the game does. Although unlike most sharks who wear robes, his outfit actually has proper pants.
* {{Leitmotif}}: A song entitled "How Interesting". Though it could arguely also double as a theme for the library itself.

One of Rourkie's pirate crew, an African Gray Parrot, who has some ideas of his own.

* PirateParrot
* SmarterThanYouLook: Or, at least, he's excellent at bluffing and manages to figure out the implications of a GrandfatherParadox on his own while improvising. [[spoiler:It's enough to distract Queen Nakhta long enough for Morgana to steal the coins and get away, which may be for the best.]]
* TokenGoodTeammate: [[spoiler:Not only is he less evil than the others, he can actually convinced to join your crew (not that he had many other options at the moment) and proves to be as loyal and helpful to you as any other crewmember. He's also the only non-core crewmember who can be romanced. If given the opportunity, he's the one to initiate the reconciliation between the Dread Pirates and the surviving members of Rourkie's crew in another route.]]


Added DiffLines:

One of Rourkie's pirate crew, a [[VisualPun black sheep]] who very much enjoys her job.

* RebelliousPrincess: She used to be one, but it was insufferably boring; she's a reckless thrillseeker by nature who only enjoys opportunities to, well, see below.

More than that, he has general issues with self-identity, as suggested by his heavy clothing in shades of pink and blue. There are several ways for him to resolve this.

Added DiffLines:

* HollywoodAtheist: Not quite. It's suggested that she's anti-religious primarily because, having been around manipulators and liars all her life and being ruthlessly pragmatic, she thinks that anyone who believes in higher powers, or anything at all really, is either a sucker or a scam artist themselves--[[PsychologicalProjection that's how she'd use it]]. Mila may or may not agree with her, but for reasons of her own either way. Even seeing [[spoiler:an actual ghost]] isn't enough to change her mind, since it's not clear if that was due to [[ReligionIsMagic an actual spiritual realm or just the coins' magic]]. [[spoiler:As Princess Morgana, however, it's unclear if she actually does believe, but she's quite in favor of religion just for the community-unifying aspect of it.]]

* {{Foreshadowing}}: Visually, there are elements to her costume which correspond to separate transformations, hinting that the personality elements those bring out are already present in her.


Added DiffLines:

* CommanderContrarian: He's almost always the voice of doubt and the one to raise the possibility of failure. [[spoiler:Fortunately, his transformations generally make him less whiny about it, and can even result in positivity.]]

More than that, he has general issues with self-identity, as suggested by his heavy clothing in shades of pink and blue. There are several ways for him to resolve this.
* LossOfIdentity: Seems to be the one most affected by the possibilities of this and comments on it more than anyone else; [[spoiler:when offered the chance to give up and become a feral animal, he's sorely tempted, however, until Mila snaps him out of it.]]


Added DiffLines:

* RuleOfSymbolism: His outfit changes more symbolically than most. [[spoiler:When he becomes a WolfMan, his heavy clothing disappears and he becomes a WalkingShirtlessScene, showing off his muscles and achieved hyper-masculinity. When he undergoes a GenderBender, however, his clothing changes almost not at all--it simply becomes less concealing of her new body.]]
* SelfDeprecation: He engages in this as a vent for his frustration and his feelings of inadequacy.
-->''I'd doubt me, too.''
-->''I don't want to bore you with my problems!''
* VisualPun: His glasses are ''rose-colored''. [[{{Irony}} He's]] TheCynic. When he actually puts them on rather than wearing them on his hat, [[spoiler:it's a sign that his sense of self has been changed and distorted.]]

* BlankSlate: She initially comes off as one, meek, ambivalent, and almost androgynous. Her backstory is never fully revealed, either, heightening the impression. As time goes on, though, she's slowly revealed to have a number of different traits already no matter which approach she decides to take.
* LargeAndInCharge: An interesting case, where the more assertive and aggressive she becomes, ''the larger and more intimidating she gets'', culminating in [[spoiler:an approximately nine-foot-tall, musclebound behemoth with massive strength.]]


Added DiffLines:

* BerserkButton: Her two biggest ones are [[HarmfulToMinors harm coming to children]] and, yes, disloyalty.


Added DiffLines:

* HiddenDepths: While she's generally BrutallyHonest about her opinions, it's only when she's ''forced'' to be totally honest that she reveals where they come from. Most surprising, and evident from what she does rather than what she states, is how she repeatedly states that [[spoiler:she's not worth dying or suffering for, not being a good enough person.]]


Added DiffLines:

* KnifeNut


Added DiffLines:

* PrincessPhase: She's never quite grown out of hers, secretly longing to be one for reasons she only explains to Mila if she's come to love her in one specific case. Even when she redecorates her room, there's a princess doll lying about. [[spoiler:When she actually gets to become one, however, she's a RebelliousPrincess, having AlternateIdentityAmnesia but also discovering that being a princess, especially in a family as RoyallyScrewedUp as this one, isn't all it's cracked up to be.]]

An old friend of Darious's, now working as the steward for the mysterious Mr. Lazerby.

* CreatorCameo: Luprand is also one of the voice actors, for Leeko as well as his own character.
* [[spoiler:TheRenfield]]: [[spoiler:Lazerby is a ghost, not a vampire, but he acts this way nonetheless.]]




to:

The current monarch, younger of the two royal siblings. She's very insecure about her reign, and rumor has it that she's collecting the coins for her own ends. There's a slight problem with getting them from her, though: she's extremely paranoid, touchy, and ''hates'' pirates...so that could prove a problem.

* AbsoluteCleavage: Her outfit is ''not'' concealing at all. [[spoiler:It's no less saucy in her mature form.]]
* [[spoiler:AlasPoorVillain]]: [[spoiler:In the two events in which they wind up killing her (and worse), none of the Dread Pirates (save [[BloodKnight Morgana in one event]]) is actually happy at having to do so, or even consider that she was an AssholeVictim. They're pragmatic about it as best. In the one, they were manipulated into it, and the other, had to betray her genuine trust to do so. That said, they're ''not'' too upset if she accidentally traps herself in a book.]]
* AlternateIdentityAmnesia: [[spoiler:She becomes confused and forgets that she promised the coins to the Dread Pirates after transforming into her mature form, but is swiftly convinced to hand them over anyway after an offer from Tam Tam.]] Tam Tam is skeptical as to whether this actually occurred, or if she was just stringing them along to get one last favor before they left, though one secret ending suggests it was genuine.
* AmbiguouslyEvil: It's deliberately left open just how truly bad she is. While she's not a pleasant person, the only actually evil things we see her do are feud with family over the throne despite being the younger child and hang pirates, which is usually considered a good thing ''unless'' you're a pirate.
* BigBeautifulWoman: [[spoiler:Her mature form is, anyway.]]
* ComplexityAddiction: This accounts for half the problems she's having when the Dread Pirates enter the picture. The other half, surprisingly, is that EvenEvilHasStandards, see below. [[spoiler:Rather than ''kill'' her sister outright, which she apparently wouldn't do, she's decided to alter history to make Bilba the younger sibling. For this she needs the coins. It also requires her to get Bilba to come out of hiding.]] It takes Darious and Morgana combined to point out the much simpler solution: [[spoiler:making ''herself'' older instead.]]
* DramaticallyMissingThePoint: When told of a possible way to end violence for good, she objects, asking how she could maintain peace without violence. It has to be explained that, without violence, she wouldn't ''need'' to keep the peace, at which point she agrees.]]
* EvenEvilHasStandards: One of her redeeming qualities is her refusal to bring harm to her family members. This leads her to seek out more unusual methods to incapacitate those whom she thinks are plotting against her.
* FatalFlaw: Her [[TheParanoiac paranoia]]. When that's abated somewhat in one route, she becomes a noticeably nicer person, albeit still not exactly heroic.
* [[spoiler:[[GodEmperor God-Queen]]]]: [[spoiler:One possible outcome for her is becoming the magically-empowered ruler of the world, other states acknowledging her rulership, with the caveat that [[PerfectPacifistPeople neither she nor anyone else can use violence]]. Hence, she's not assassinated, nobody can rebel, she can't hang or otherwise murder anyone, and warfare in general is forgotten. She's a bit oppressive, but not to a dystopian level, and overall things are better off than they were before.]]
* GodSaveUsFromTheQueen: The Dread Pirates have this opinion, anyway, with the exception of Darious, who may simply find her attractive despite the age difference. [[spoiler:His younger self is happy to flirt with her.]]
* HoistByTheirOwnPetard: [[spoiler:It's the crown that she designed for Bilba to wear, forced onto her, that erases her from existence in one path. This is ''not'' a KarmicDeath, though, since it wasn't intended to be fatal for anyone else, including Bilba; indeed, in any path where she succeeds, she doesn't regard her living sister as a threat. Bilba gloats evilly about it and admits that she deliberately set her sister up for that horrible fate.]]
* ISurrenderSuckers: [[spoiler:She's held hostage on the Pirate's Fate and forced to abdicate on threat of death, and she agrees willingly to [[ExactWords hand Bilba power and personally put the crown on her]]. It winds up sealing her victory once the enchanted crown de-ages Bilba and makes Nakhta the undisputed rightful sovereign.]]
* ItsAllAboutMe: ''Everything'' revolves around her in her own mind, and even though she does have arguably good intentions at heart, she filters them through how they'll affect her first. Interestingly, while she adores flattery, she's not necessarily physically vain, [[spoiler:since she willingly ages herself to middle age in the name of peace.]]
* {{Leitmotif}}: "Interruption", a formal, somewhat fussy classical arrangement for strings.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: She's unaware of their true power and only wants the coins for a single, entirely personal reason that affects her kingdom at most, and only for a while. She willingly parts with them once that's accomplished if you help her. It's only Mila tries to help but telling her what they're really capable of that her paranoia kicks in, [[spoiler:she decides that since they can be used to conquer the world ''that must be what Morgana's doing'', and decides to do it before she can.]]
* OutGambited: [[spoiler:In one path, Bilba pulls this on her; in another, she pulls it on Bilba and on the Dread Pirates.]]
* [[spoiler:OvernightAgeUp]]: [[spoiler:One path sees her inspired by the Dread Pirates to change her plan and turn herself into the older sibling, becoming a fashionable mature woman in a few moments after putting on the crown.]]
* PetTheDog: A very brief moment occurs when [[spoiler:she refuses to believe that her own younger sister Morgana, who grew up with her all these years and made so many memories, used to be someone else entirely. She also expresses concern for her safety even before she becomes politically expedient to keep alive.]]
** [[spoiler:She's even willing to forgive being kidnapped and attempted to be forced into abdication in one ending if she survives, and notices with approval that the ex-Pirates' pie shop is helping reduce starvation.]]
* PimpedOutDress: Complete with GiantPoofySleeves. [[spoiler:Her mature form's dress takes the cake, though.]]
* PragmaticVillainy: As much as she hates pirates, she's willing to spare them as long as they're ''obviously'' not working against her directly, and may have information she needs.
* {{Pride}}: ''Oh so much of it''. In most routes she manages to keep it relatively under control, but in one possible ending [[spoiler:she gets so full of herself and disgusted by the idea of collaborative decisions that she decides to just do things herself, declares that she intends to [[AGodAmI become a goddess]], and...promptly gets marooned with her bodyguard in one of the {{portal book}}s.]]
* PrincelingRivalry: Bilba was apparently banished or fled at some point, and now Nakhta is convinced that she intends to murder her sister and seize first the throne, then the world, for herself. [[spoiler:She is correct.]]
* ProperlyParanoid: On the one hand, [[spoiler:her older sister really is trying to murder her and seize power.]]
** ImproperlyParanoid: On the other, [[spoiler:she suspects people with no connection to Bilba of being on her payroll. When she confronts the Dread Pirates and her new-other sister (Fox) Morgana, she's convinced that they're going to use the coins to steal her throne rather than change the world for the better. Someone there is plotting against her, [[BodyguardBetrayal but it's not the one she thinks]]. Fortunately for her, neither case gets her ''killed''.]]
* PublicExecution: She loves holding them for pirates, and apparently most people in her kingdom enjoy watching them, too.
* RequisiteRoyalRegalia: PimpedOutDress, crown, fancy gloves, a RegalRuff...
* [[spoiler:RetGone]]: [[spoiler:In the darkest evil path, she is wiped from existence after being forced to wear the crown she created. It would make whoever wears it her younger sister, but since she can't be, she was never born and vanishes. Bilba knew this and planned it from the start.]]
* {{Sadist}}: A very slight example, in that she seems to get a kick out of seeing pirates in particular suffer physically.
-->''Tell me, how precisely would you describe the bloodiness of the battle? Exceedingly bloody or obscenely so?''
* SanitySlippage: She decides, after thinking it over in a fit of paranoia, that [[spoiler:Fox Morgana must have just joined the pirates to betray her]]. Fortunately, she can be [[TalkingTheMonsterToDeath talked out of it]] and a peaceful resolution that benefits everyone accomplished, but if you fail to do so, she completely snaps and goes mad with perceived power [[spoiler:before being promptly shoved out of the way by the real villain of that arc]], or alternately [[spoiler:declares that she'll use the coins to make herself a deity--which goes about as well as you'd think.]]
* [[spoiler:SelfDisposingVillain]]: [[spoiler:It's possible to actually just give her the coins when she reaches the island and let her try to do it herself rather than accompany her and heal the world that way. She fails the test of character that she didn't know existed and promptly gets herself and Anora trapped inside the book.]]
* StrangeMindsThinkAlike: [[spoiler:If she's kidnapped and brought onto the Pirate's Fate,]] her initial reaction is exactly the same as Mila's.
* TakeOverTheWorld: Assumes anyone trying to gather all the coins intends to do this, possibly because of PsychologicalProjection. [[spoiler:When she actually ''does'' get to take it over, it actually goes reasonably well given that violence has been eliminated, too.]]
* VillainHasAPoint: While the Queen may be wrong about her conclusions in that route, it does ''look'' pretty bad that [[spoiler:her sister, transformed Morgana, suddenly declares that her whole life has been a fabrication and that she wants to follow these people she just met ''just as'' they're about to obtain a world-altering treasure.]]
* VillainsNeverLie: Though she's morally dubious at best and outright evil at worst, [[spoiler:everything she says about Bilba being a psychotic, murderous, power-grabbing tyrant far worse than herself is completely true.]] In fact, the only ''technical'' lie that she tells in the entire game, ExactWords aside, is [[spoiler:that she has a significant other in mind, to Threyon and Sherry.]] Then again, it might just be that she's a BadLiar.
* VillainyFreeVillain: Sometimes she just shows up long enough to get robbed. In one particular route, she does nothing at all that could be considered evil, gives our heroes what they want for their service, and lets them leave. Some of them still suspect her of having had something planned, though.
* XanatosGambit: Interestingly, hers is in various stages of completion across different routes, and can either pay off handsomely, simply fail, or backfire horrifically.
* WellIntentionedExtremist: Nakhta genuinely does want peace and order. She just believes that the only way it's possible is if she remains in power, and maintains it by gleefully hanging petty criminals. Her paranoia simply won't let her trust anyone else to handle things. [[spoiler:Once her violence is no longer an issue or possibility in one ending, she proves to be a somewhat, but not extremely, oppressive ruler in peace.]]
* WhyDidntIThinkOfThat: She's delighted to hear Darious's idea of [[spoiler:aging herself rather than find Bilba and forcibly de-age her, since it involves less work. It's even less "unethical"!]] She remarks that she should have met them months ago.
* AWorldHalfFull: [[spoiler:In one ending, she's given power as the unchallenged leader of the world of PerfectPacifistPeople once Mila eliminates violence. The world she creates isn't a perfect MarySuetopia, since she's still slightly oppressive and a JerkAss, but it's better than what everyone had before, and without the capability to hurt, she's not so bad.]]


Added DiffLines:

[[folder:Bilba]]
The queen's older sister, now returned and (according to Nakhta) plotting against her to overthrow her reign.

* [[spoiler:ConsummateLiar:]] [[spoiler:Almost everything she says is a bald-faced lie to manipulate you into helping her.]]
* [[spoiler:ILied:]] [[spoiler:Flat-out admits it while [[VillainousGloating laughing about how easy it was]], should you wind up accidentally erasing Nakhta for her.]]
** [[spoiler:DidYouActuallyBelieve:]] [[spoiler:"...that I didn't want the throne?!"]]
* NotSoDifferent: Mila can point this out when comparing her to her sister, [[spoiler:though in fact she's actually ''worse''. Aside from the above, she hangs Rourkie just for the entertainment value, when at least Nakhta was attempting to protect her younger sister by doing so.]]

[[folder:Anora]]

[[/folder]]




to:

A rival captain, this rabbit is nothing at all like Darious; for starters, he's a genuine pirate of the Brute type, unafraid to bully, murder, extort, and generally leave destruction in his wake. When he hears Darious is after the coins, he decides that he's suddenly interested in them, too.

* CreatorCameo: Rourkie did the music. Yes, his cameo is as an awful villain...
* KillerRabbit: [[LiteralMetaphor Puns aside]], he fits the trope as well, being initially tiny and almost adorable in clothing that's much too big for him, yet swiftly revealing how vile he really is.
* MoralEventHorizon:

The Queen's right-hand dragoness, serving as both an envoy and, when need be, a bodyguard. There's something suspicious about her, though...

* TheDragon: Again, [[LiteralMetaphor puns aside]], she fits the trope as well, being the Queen's henchwoman and muscle.
* ObviouslyEvil: Not even spoiler-worthy, as she's explicitly designed to be transparently sinister through-and-through. That doesn't mean ''some people'' in the crew aren't willing to at least hear her out, though...
* PuttingOnTheReich: Yes, her uniform is based on Nazi winter outfit variants.
* [[spoiler:TheStarscream]]: [[spoiler:Betrays the queen the first chance she gets on several paths in order to attempt steal the coins for herself.]]
