7	[[folder: Eldritch Balthazar]]
8	!!Eldritch Balthazar, Count of Ilmaron and official owner of the Sea Turtle
9	Third son of Duke Waldemar and Duchess Constance and primary protagonist of the series. A young human with a bizarre obsession for studying Deep Spawn, Eldritch is often seen as an eccentric by many including many other nobles in the Kingdom of Maharlika. Driven by a need to prove himself and his mother's many achievements, he has embarked on a quest to hunt the dreaded [[EldritchAbomination Bakunawa]] and bring its heart home in order to fabricate a cure for the [[ThePlague Phantom's Taint]].
10	----
11	* AdmiringTheAbomination: He has an unhealthy interest in even the most grotesque of [[SeaMonster Deep Spawn]] and causes others to fear for both his sanity and safety.
12	* AmusingInjuries: Prone to this in the various [[NoodleIncident experiments]] that take place in his laboratory within the ship.
13	* CelibateHero: This despite having a harem with 36 members. Although there are rumors of him [[StarCrossedLovers having a previous relationship with an Imperial Princess]] that [[LoveHurts ended disastrously]]. This is largely because the [[CorruptChurch Gilded Church]], by law, couldn't [[BurnTheWitch burn]] witches who were married to nobility. It also helps that the women he's married to [[IfItsYouItsOkay have no beef with him]] or one another.
14	* TheDitz: He has a habit of falling off the ship.
15	* GeniusDitz: He can be annoying and troublesome due to his curiosity and naivete but almost a peerless expert when it comes to Deep Spawn anatomy.
16	%%* GentlemanAdventurer: He has shades of this.%%How?
17	* IgnoreTheFanservice: He does this most of the time to his harem. However, he [[SubvertedTrope doesn't always succeed]].
18	%%* LikeBrotherAndSister: [[CelibateHero How he has come to see his harem.]]
19	%%* TheLoad: Due to his inexperience beyond his sheltered life.
20	* MadScientist: His interest in studying Deep Spawn borders on being a little unhealthy.
21	%%* TheMillstone: When his curiosity and clumsiness get the better of him.%%... what happens?
22	%%* NoodleIncident: His various experiments with Deep Spawn end up being this.%%Being what? How?
23	* NonActionGuy: Hhe has no compunction about killing and experimenting on Deep Spawn but disdains having to hurt other sentient beings.
24	%%* {{Nosebleed}}: He's prone to this. Usually from his harem.%%Prone to what?
25	* {{Polyamory}}: He has seven wives and seven concubines who don't mind each other.
26	* SiblingRivalry: With [[JerkJock brash]] Cassius and [[DirtyCoward whiny]] Fabio.
27	* TechnicalPacifist: He will happily cut up Deep Spawn in his laboratory but doesn't like fighting other sentient beings. Instead, he will resort to using his [[ShockAndAwe electric]] [[NonLethalWarfare stun weapons]].

30	[[folder: Samantha Delacroix]]
31	!!Captain Samantha Delacroix, a Witch and captain of the Sea Turtle
32	A witch with a rather [[DarkAndTroubledPast sketchy background]], Samantha had been dedicated to hunting Deep Spawn for more than twenty years now. While certainly skilled as a sea beast slayer, her [[TheDeterminator single-minded dedication]] for [[AnimalNemesis hunting and killing leviathans]] often call up disturbing implications about her state of mind. Her personal goal is to kill the Bakunawa for killing her young wife at least two decades ago.
33	----
34	* TheAlcoholic: She's never too far from a bottle and/or glass of rum.
35	* AnimalMotifs: The orca, which easily fits in with her nature as a [[HunterOfMonsters sea-beast slayer]].
36	* AnimalNemesis: She's [[TheDeterminator dedicated]] in hunting and killing the Bakunawa and also takes pleasure in slaying other leviathans and deep spawn.
37	* AxCrazy: Not always apparent, but she becomes this once she catches sight of the Bakunawa.
38	* DarkAndTroubledPast: Seems to have been a pirate or some kind of criminal before she met [[TheLostLenore Naomi]].
39	* TheDeterminator: ''nothing'' will stop her from hunting the Bakunawa. Even the loss of her ship the Calm Fury has done little to slow her vengeance.
40	* {{Expy}}: Appearance-wise: a mix of [[Anime/DragonautTheResonance Garnet Mclane]] and [[Anime/CodeGeass Viletta Nu]]. In terms of personality she's a [[Literature/MobyDick Captain Ahab]] with a dash of [[Film/{{Jaws}} Quint]].
41	%%* {{Foil}}: To Eldritch's naive optimism.%%ZCE. How?
42	* HandicappedBadass: She's missing her left eye but can and has laid waste to leviathans which are all too often a hundred times bigger than she is. And that doesn't even include all the other SeaMonsters she's had to face in the past.
43	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: She's dismissive of Eldritch's naive views and is quick to dispel what she perceives as misguided optimism. However, she is shown time and time again to care deeply for her crew.
44	* KickTheDog: She's very brutal towards deep spawn, especially leviathans.
45	* KnightInSourArmor: She has shades of this as she is often shown to have a sense of decency and a love for her crew despite her blood thirsty nature.
46	* AMotherToHerMen: She cares rather deeply for her crew and will come through for them come hell or [[PuN high water]].
47	* PetTheDog: Saving a young boy named Sean Davis, a HeartwarmingOrphan, from an OrphanageOfFear and a possible early death in a NightmarishFactory.
48	* ProngsOfPoseidon: She's a seagoing hunter of ocean monsters who fights using a trident.
