* MightyGlacier: Being a Grenadier, Crymaria is ''painfully'' slow, and the class' innately low AP doesn't help matters. She makes up for this with her StoneWall-grade HP and powerful defensive capabilities, however.
* NoSell: Crymaria is completely immune to being knocked down by explosions and slow effects.
* OvershadowedByAwesome: Despite supposedly being "the most powerful Valkyrur" to ever walk the earth, Crymaria is overshadowed in nearly all aspects by Selvaria, her fellow DLC HeroUnit. Compared to Selvaria, who's [[AllYourPowersCombined a Scout, Shocktrooper, Lancer and Sniper thrown into one character]], Crymaria's only selling point is her big area-of-effect attack that does negligible damage to tanks, unlike her super-powerful boss version. Pretty much anything Crymaria can do, Selvaria can do it ten times better, without the baggage that the Grenadier class brings.

While Teresa was trying to scare Jester straight by chasing Jester around threatening to ''remove his organs'', Connor seemed to be playing along with Teresa. After Teresa reveals her true intention, Connor is ''disappointed'' that Teresa isn't going to forcibly remove Jester's organs.
* HenpeckedHusband: If his Squad Story and his own character profile are any indication, he is apparently this to his wife, possibly due to his questionable writing career. Nevertheless, his wife supports him in his writing.
* LeftHanging: Played for laughs. If he dies in battle, his last words are:
-->'''Conner''': ''(languidly)'' "So this is it...? No CharacterDevelopment? No closure...?" ''(dies)''
* LeaningOnTheFourthWall: Tells Jester "you're no protagonist, but you could make an interesting supporting character".
* RevealingCoverUp: His after-action report in "A captainless squad", which is a complete lie and an attempt to pass off the "rescue Rags mission" as a picnic with a snowball fight interrupted by a bunch of bears and a freak blizzard, caused Claude, Raz, Kai, Riley, and Minerva to challenge the implicated members of Squad E to a mock battle. Oops.
* ThatCameOutWrong: At the end of his Squad Story, he's so fascinated by Teresa's behaviour that he decides to write a compilation of ''all'' the stories of Squad E's women... and that he'll plant hidden microphones for research purposes. He immediately backpedals once it's pointed out how bad this sounds.

* [[CluelessChickMagnet Clueless Dude Magnet]]: Numerous men around the base have developed feelings for her thanks to her looks and sweet personality but she's completely unaware.
* DistractedByTheSexy: If surrounded by men, Aoife becomes frustrated and her performance degrades.
-->'''Aoife:''' [upon triggering Love Troubles] You really are handsome...
* DiscOneNuke: Aoife is hands down, the ''best'' Grenadier you'll be getting for a while, by virtue of her being the most well-balanced of the three you receive by the time the class is introduced. Almost all of her potentials are beneficial, and the one detriment she has is entirely situational, meanwhile Connor is potentially more powerful, but has two incredibly bad potentials that trigger very frequently. She is also highly accurate to boot and has an advantage during night missions, making her a popular early pick among players, and remains viable ''way'' into the late game, even after Riley has received her potential upgrade and more powerful alternatives like Jascha have joined the Squad.
* HappilyMarried: [[spoiler: To her fiancé back home, once the war is finished.]]
* HeroicSecondWind: Her Promised Love potential allows Aoife to gain significant boosts to her combat performance and defense should her HP fall below half. It is unlocked by completing her squad story.
** Doubles as {{Determinator}}, as Promised Love steels Aoife's resolve to survive [[spoiler:and go home to her fiancé no matter what]].
--->'''Aoife:''' No matter what, I will survive!
* TheLostLenore: [[spoiler:Of her fiancé at home, should she be [=KIA=]. It gets doubly tragic when you realize they're only ''engaged'' and not actually married yet, as her TragicKeepsake is her engagement ring.]]
* MasterOfTheMixedMessage: Her very nice demeanor and willingness to spend free time with the other men in the squad have led to a lot of guys assuming she may be interested in them. After witnessing firsthand how one of these conversations go, Hanna is appalled and advises her to please be more mindful of how she words her sentences to avoid any misunderstandings. [[spoiler:She apparently hasn't fully succeeded on the "mindfulness" part by the end of the game, as her final entry states that she still exudes "unintentionally seductive" that stresses her husband quite a bit.]]
* NiceGirl: Extremely kind to those around her, she has something nice to say about everyone.
* NoPronunciationGuide: Her name, being Irish, is pronounced "''ee-fa''" instead of "''aoi-fe''". If you've skipped her recruiting dialogue and/or haven't played her squad story yet, her name might be rather confusing to read.

[[folder:Jascha Alatt]]
!!Jascha Alatt
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Shunzou Miyasaka (Japanese)
----
* AmbiguousDisorder: Jascha tries to understand everything in terms of math, and doesn't figure out that he's in love with Aoife until someone else helps him out with it.
* AwesomenessByAnalysis: During his Squad Story he's able to accurately predict where an enemy shell will land and where it was safe to stand as a result.
* CanNotSpitItOut: Even after he realizes his crush on Aoife he still struggles to work up the nerve to tell her until the end of their Squad Story.
* GoodWithNumbers: Justified, in that he used to be a mathematics professor.
* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: When he finally manages to confess his feelings for Aoife and learns [[spoiler: she's engaged]], he takes it relatively gracefully and wishes her the best.
* OppositesAttract: [[spoiler:Logical, reserved Jascha ends up marrying HotBlooded Hanna. He's more surprised than anybody.]]
* TheSpock: Very serious and logical.
* YoungerThanTheyLook: You'd be forgiven for not realizing that the grey-haired, scruffy professor was actually only 32.

[[folder:Connor Doherty]]
!!Connor Doherty
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Youhei Azakami (Japanese), Christian La Monte (English)
----
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: More interested in what makes a good story that what's a good idea. His wife actually kicked him out of the house because of his writing obsession. While Teresa was trying to scare Jester straight by chasing Jester around threatening to ''remove his organs'', Connor seemed to be playing along with Teresa. After Teresa reveals her true intention, Connor is ''disappointed'' that Teresa isn't going to forcibly remove Jester's organs.
* HenpeckedHusband: If his Squad Story and his own character profile are any indication, he is apparently this to his wife, possibly due to his questionable writing career. Nevertheless, his wife supports him in his writing.
* LeftHanging: Played for laughs. If he dies in battle, his last words are:
-->'''Conner''': ''(languidly)'' "So this is it...? No CharacterDevelopment? No closure...?" ''(dies)''
* LeaningOnTheFourthWall: Tells Jester "you're no protagonist, but you could make an interesting supporting character".
* RevealingCoverUp: His after-action report in "A captainless squad", which is a complete lie and an attempt to pass off the "rescue Rags mission" as a picnic with a snowball fight interrupted by a bunch of bears and a freak blizzard, caused Claude, Raz, Kai, Riley, and Minerva to challenge the implicated members of Squad E to a mock battle. Oops.
* ThatCameOutWrong: At the end of his Squad Story, he's so fascinated by Teresa's behaviour that he decides to write a compilation of ''all'' the stories of Squad E's women... and that he'll plant hidden microphones for research purposes. He immediately backpedals once it's pointed out how bad this sounds.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Has dark green hair, making him one of the few non-Darcsen characters in the series to have an unnatural hair color.

[[folder:Aoife]]
!!Aoife
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Yukiko Motoyoshi (Japanese), Creator/BriannaKnickerbocker (English)
----
* ApologeticAttacker: Some of her attack quotes are her profusely apologizing to the enemy.
* BodyguardCrush: [[spoiler: She met her fiancé when she was hired as his bodyguard.]]
* [[CluelessChickMagnet Clueless Dude Magnet]]: Numerous men around the base have developed feelings for her thanks to her looks and sweet personality but she's completely unaware.
* DistractedByTheSexy: If surrounded by men, Aoife becomes frustrated and her performance degrades.
-->'''Aoife:''' [upon triggering Love Troubles] You really are handsome...
* DiscOneNuke: Aoife is hands down, the ''best'' Grenadier you'll be getting for a while, by virtue of her being the most well-balanced of the three you receive by the time the class is introduced. Almost all of her potentials are beneficial, and the one detriment she has is entirely situational, meanwhile Connor is potentially more powerful, but has two incredibly bad potentials that trigger very frequently. She is also highly accurate to boot and has an advantage during night missions, making her a popular early pick among players, and remains viable ''way'' into the late game, even after Riley has received her potential upgrade and more powerful alternatives like Jascha have joined the Squad.
* HappilyMarried: [[spoiler: To her fiancé back home, once the war is finished.]]
* HeroicSecondWind: Her Promised Love potential allows Aoife to gain significant boosts to her combat performance and defense should her HP fall below half. It is unlocked by completing her squad story.
** Doubles as {{Determinator}}, as Promised Love steels Aoife's resolve to survive [[spoiler:and go home to her fiancé no matter what]].
--->'''Aoife:''' No matter what, I will survive!
* TheLostLenore: [[spoiler:Of her fiancé at home, should she be [=KIA=]. It gets doubly tragic when you realize they're only ''engaged'' and not actually married yet, as her TragicKeepsake is her engagement ring.]]
* MasterOfTheMixedMessage: Her very nice demeanor and willingness to spend free time with the other men in the squad have led to a lot of guys assuming she may be interested in them. After witnessing firsthand how one of these conversations go, Hanna is appalled and advises her to please be more mindful of how she words her sentences to avoid any misunderstandings. [[spoiler:She apparently hasn't fully succeeded on the "mindfulness" part by the end of the game, as her final entry states that she still exudes "unintentionally seductive" that stresses her husband quite a bit.]]
* NiceGirl: Extremely kind to those around her, she has something nice to say about everyone.
* NoPronunciationGuide: Her name, being Irish, is pronounced "''ee-fa''" instead of "''aoi-fe''". If you've skipped her recruiting dialogue and/or haven't played her squad story yet, her name might be rather confusing to read.
* OnlyOneName: Like all Darcsen.

[[folder:Ben Smith / "Stahlschrott"]]
!!Stahlschrott
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Volcano Ota (Japanese), Creator/RichardEpcar (English)
----
* DeathSeeker: He keeps getting rebuilt by the military with each injury, so much so that he wants his next "death" to stick.
* {{Expy}}: Part-machine, wears shades, and voiced by Creator/RichardEpcar? Yep, he's [[Franchise/GhostInTheShell Batou]] with a dose of the [[Series/TheSixMillionDollarMan Six Million Dollar Man]], [[VideoGame/DeusExHumanRevolution Adam Jensen]] and the [[Film/TheTerminator Terminator]].
* MeaningfulName: His nickname, "Stahlschrott," means "scrap metal."
* SunglassesAtNight
* TakingTheBullet: He shields Louffe from an explosion. Fortunately for him, only one of his artificial arms was damaged, which is something the doctors can easily fix... not that that's something that pleases him.
* TerminatorImpersonator: Has the general looks, and the prostetic bodyparts to go with it; plus he spouts a ton of catchprases from [[TheAhnold Ahnold's]] movies ([[{{Franchise/Terminator}} "I'll be back" when he falls in combat,]] [[{{Film/Terminator2JudgmentDay}} "Come with me if you want to... Survive" during his Squad Story,]] [[{{Film/Predator}} "If he bleeds we can kill it" when his potential activates]], and so on).
* [[WhenSheSmiles When He Smiles]]: Marie comments on how nice it is to see him smile again after Louffe comments on how much him living means to them at the end of their Squad Story.
