* GreyEyes: Going along with both his calm, cool, [[HeroicNeutral ordinarily passive]] demeanor and his magical abilities.
** CurtainsMatchTheWindows
* TheHermit: He lives in a small shack up in the mountains at first and would be more than content to stay there.
* HeroicNeutral: Jasper is a good guy, but he doesn't want to get swept up in everyone else's business.
* HiddenHeartOfGold: He just wants to be left alone, but Jasper is really a nice guy deep down and doesn't like to see others get hurt. It's just that standing up for others when they're hurt tends to get ''you'' hurt as well, and if people ''know'' you'll stand up for them, they start to expect it all the time and that's just a bother.
** JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He tends to be rather dismissive of humanity in general, given that past interactions have taught him that other people are greedy, selfish, and not to be trusted. He doesn't seem to intentionally cultivate a JerkassFacade, but some people perceive him as a little insensitive.
* {{Hikikomori}}: He prefers to stay inside and read, rather than go out and interact with people. He's not afraid of going outside, per se; he just doesn't like dealing with humans.
** BasementDweller: He sleeps in the basement and other characters occasionally mock his girlfriend-less state.
** {{NEET}}: He briefly mentions he's been living off his parents' inheritance, which must have been pretty large considering he lost them twenty years ago and shows no sign of having ever held a job.

** HumansAreFlawed: He eventually comes to see humans in a more positive light.
* IJustWantToBeNormal: At the start, he mentions that he never asked to be born a mage.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: Jasper hasn't a clue why telling Carnellia that few men could stand up to her "brute strength" would upset her - [[ComplimentBackfire he was complementing her strength]]!
* KnightInSourArmor: Okay, maybe only ''most'' people are jerks and there are ''some'' who are worth fighting for and ''maybe'' the rest will become good enough in time...but Jasper isn't holding his breath.
* NoSocialSkills: Because he hates dealing with people, those times he has to tend to come off a bit awkward.
* ObliviousToLove: Jasper has no idea that Carnelia has a crush on him. [[spoiler:And as far as we know he never finds out, either.]]
* RefusalOfTheCall: When he witnesses Malachi invading the village near his house, Jasper simply makes it a point to get away as fast as possible and doesn't want to join in either side.

* HeroesWantRedheads: Has quite a bit of ShipTease with Jasper.
* JustTheFirstCitizen: The townspeople are more likely to refer to her as a princess than she is to refer to herself that way.
* ModestRoyalty: Her dress is fairly simple and she has no problem walking among the common people and helping out around town where she can.
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Slavery is outlawed in Aquaria, a rare thing in this world, and all people are treated equally, meaning commoners are as important as royalty. She's also more than willing to listen to Jasper, despite the fact that most people wouldn't even let a mage in their house, much less ask his opinion.

He doesn't seem to intentionally cultivate a JerkassFacade, but some people perceive him as a little insensitive.
* {{Hikikomori}}: He prefers to stay inside and read, rather than go out and interact with people. He's not afraid of going outside, per se; he just doesn't like dealing with humans.
** BasementDweller: He sleeps in the basement and other characters occasionally mock his girlfriend-less state.
** {{NEET}}: He briefly mentions he's been living off his parents' inheritance, which must have been pretty large considering he lost them twenty years ago and shows no sign of having ever held a job.
* HumansAreBastards: His views of humanity at the start of the game are ''not'' kind. Then again, most humans have been pretty awful to him up until that point.
** HumansAreFlawed: He eventually comes to see humans in a more positive light.
* IJustWantToBeNormal: At the start, he mentions that he never asked to be born a mage.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: Jasper hasn't a clue why telling Carnellia that few men could stand up to her "brute strength" would upset her - [[ComplimentBackfire he was complementing her strength]]!
* KnightInSourArmor: Okay, maybe only ''most'' people are jerks and there are ''some'' who are worth fighting for and ''maybe'' the rest will become good enough in time...but Jasper isn't holding his breath.
* NoSocialSkills: Because he hates dealing with people, those times he has to tend to come off a bit awkward.
* ObliviousToLove: Jasper has no idea that Carnelia has a crush on him. [[spoiler:And as far as we know he never finds out, either.]]
* RefusalOfTheCall: When he witnesses Malachi invading the village near his house, Jasper simply makes it a point to get away as fast as possible and doesn't want to join in either side.
** TheCallKnowsWhereYouLive: If Jasper had his way, he'd never have gotten involved in anything and would just sit at home reading. Unfortunately for him, TheCall decided to burn down his house with all of his books in it.
* SquishyWizard: Consistently has the highest MP of the group (barely edging out Kyan), and the lowest HP.
* TheStrategist: He's the only one who can order Tactics.
* ThemeNaming: [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jasper Jasper]] is a type of gemstone.
* WitchSpecies: Mages look exactly like humans, with seemingly no distinguishing features (possibly black hair?), yet normal humans can recognize them on sight.

The princess of [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beryl#Aquamarine_and_maxixe Aquaria]], the first city Jasper comes to after fleeing his home. [[spoiler:Also the daughter of a slave couple that Jasper's family died helping.]]
----
* AllLovingHero
* DetachedSleeves
* DistressedDamsel: Very, very often.
** HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: The reason she ends up in distress is often that she chose to believe the best about the wrong person...again.
* EverythingsBetterWithPrincesses: [[spoiler:Though she isn't a royal by birth; she's actually the daughter of two escaped slaves that founded a town on freedom.]]
* HeroesWantRedheads: Has quite a bit of ShipTease with Jasper.
* JustTheFirstCitizen: The townspeople are more likely to refer to her as a princess than she is to refer to herself that way.
* ModestRoyalty: Her dress is fairly simple and she has no problem walking among the common people and helping out around town where she can.
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Slavery is outlawed in Aquaria, a rare thing in this world, and all people are treated equally, meaning commoners are as important as royalty. She's also more than willing to listen to Jasper, despite the fact that most people wouldn't even let a mage in their house, much less ask his opinion.
* RedheadInGreen: And White.
* RoseHairedSweetie: Cotton-candy-colored hair and a sugary personality to match.
** SignificantGreenEyedRedhead
* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: Well, try to do something. She's not particularly good at the "doing" part, being physically weak and nonmagical.

* ModestRoyalty: Her armor is not particularly gaudy or otherwise impressive, and she wears no crown despite being a princess like her sister.
* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: And unlike her sister, she's strong enough to actually ''do'' something.
* ShouldersOfDoom: Her armor includes a nice set of pauldrons.
* ThemeNaming: [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carnelian Carnelian]] is a semi-precious gemstone.
* TomboyishPonytail: Which somehow splits at the base to form GirlishPigtails.

!!Amethos
[[quoteright:90:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/unluckyheroamethos_180.png]]
The second-in-command of Aquaria.
----
* EvilChancellor: He plots to use Christel to inspire an army he can use to TakeOverTheWorld and install her as a puppet queen by getting her little sister Carnelia killed at the hands of bandits - or killing her himself, blaming it on Jasper, and then killing him so he can't say otherwise; either works.
* ObviouslyEvil: Those squinty, shifty red eyes should give him away. If not, his actions will.
* RedEyesTakeWarning: They're an orangy shade in his portrait, but bright red in his sprite.
* ThemeNaming: [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amethyst Amethyst]] is a gemstone, ironically believed to ''protect'' against drunkenness and insanity.
* TreacherousAdvisor: Believe me, it's not a spoiler.
