| 9 | [[quoteright:199:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/radiant_1_ankama.jpg]] |
| 10 | !!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/YumiriHanamori (Japanese), Christopher Llewyn Ramirez, Creator/CristinaVee (child) (English) |
| 11 | |
| 12 | The protagonist, a reckless teenager infected by a Nemesis back when he was a child, which gave him a pair of small horns. His goal is to find the Radiant, the source of all Nemesis, to destroy it and end the infected's suffering. |
| 13 | ---- |
| 14 | * AdaptationalDumbass: A very strange example − the first two episodes made it seemed like anime!Seth was less impulsive and reckless than his early manga counterpart (see DestructiveSavior below), but then the following episodes make him much more ignorant than he initially was. In the manga, he's the one who first brings up the Radiant, he knows not to reveal his barehanded magic to the Inquisitors, can perfectly ride a FlyingBroomstick and can use basic spells like Repulse or Meteor Drops from the start. In the anime he's puzzled when Alma tells him about the Radiant, doesn't seem to know what the Inquisition is, isn't very good at flying and can't use any magic other than his "Titan Punch" (just a Fantasia-charged normal punch). |
| 15 | * AllOfTheOtherReindeer: As a child going from islet to islet with Alma the horned Seth faced terrible discrimination because of people's belief in the Inquisition's lies, getting beat up by children who even ''stabbed'' him to find his "demon's mark". He would have been killed by adults at the stake if Alma didn't save him. |
| 16 | * BarrierWarrior: Like Mélie, he can create shield of Fantasia to block attacks. |
| 17 | * CallingYourAttacks: He does this all the time during fights. Although, there is an [[JustifiedTrope in-universe explanation for it]] because of how Fantasia works. As [[TheMentor Yaga]] puts it, naming your attacks is a way to mnemonically link the name with the intention, making the casting of the spell instinctive. |
| 18 | * CombatPragmatist: Seth feints Konrad and ''knees him in the face'' during their fight. He even mocks him to buy time because he's running out of energy and the magic protecting his broken arm is wearing off. |
| 19 | * DestructiveSavior: His big problem in the introduction arc. He's so eager to prove that he can fight Nemesis that he ''deliberately'' makes a Nemesis egg hatch in the middle of a town with civilians around, causing no small amount of damage afterwards, with the bonus of tying up two kids to take them to "safety" (actually to the building where everyone is held hostage). Don Bossman sarcastically points out later on [[WhatTheHellHero that Seth actually did far more damage than the villains.]] This is greatly toned down in the anime, where the egg hatches on its own and Seth doesn't make any such stupid decisions. [[EarlyInstallmentWeirdness He doesn't really show this trait later on in the manga either.]] |
| 20 | * TheDogBitesBack: Defied. Despite suffering from persecution all his life for being an infected and sorcerer and his own dark desire to destroy everyone who discriminated against him with magic, Seth ''won't'' do it because he refuses to become the monster they thought he was. |
| 21 | -->'''Seth (to Hameline):''' I do. I understand. But I will not become the monster they saw in me! |
| 22 | * DoomMagnet: Has the awful habit of getting into trouble, either due to his recklessness or attracting the interest of unsavory parties. This made Doc wanting nothing to do with him after they met, over time he learned that if he wants to find Seth all he needs to do is follow any sort of mayhem. |
| 23 | * EnhancedPunch: His SignatureMove is Titan Punch, enhancing his punch with a surge of Fantasia. It's much more effective when he's not wearing feather gloves. |
| 24 | * GreenThumb: A skill he acquires [[spoiler:after his training with Myr in the Caillte forest to feel the Fantasia.]] It also symbolizes how much his worldview has matured thanks to it. |
| 25 | * HeroesFightBarehanded: The protagonist of ''Radiant'' and he mostly fights barehanded, with his SignatureMove being [[EnhancedPunch Titan Punch]]. |
| 26 | * HeroicBSOD: Suffers this after getting praise for defeating a criminal Inquistor, fighting the army of Nemeses, defeating a Thaumaturge, and bringing back Nemeses alive at the Artemis Institute, lashing out that he doesn't care about who's better than who and did ''not'' enjoy fighting Nemeses and watching people panic and get killed, traumatized from [[spoiler:Hameline's death]]. He gets out of it thanks to Alma telling him the good he has accomplished and giving him the letter from Taj's family. |
| 27 | * HotBlooded: He's pretty reckless, charging into battle without a plan of action. |
| 28 | * HornedHumanoid: What's normally a harmless and fairly easy-to-hide infection soon becomes a plot point. [[spoiler:Because of his horns, the Inquisition accuses Seth of a number of crimes he obviously didn't commit, yet has faint memories of. It turns out Seth has several horned "brothers" he's mentally connected to. They are all implied to have been born infected, something normally impossible.]] |
| 29 | * KamehameHadoken: His spell ''Skull Poke'' gathers Fantasia into his hands to fire a giant skull. The stronger ''Skull Burst'' releases a combined barrage of skulls beams. |
| 30 | * KungFuWizard: Notably he's able to use magic with his bare hands without any tools, which is considered ''abnormal''. |
| 31 | * LightningBruiser: Seth can generate massive amounts of Fantasia and has a lot of innate physical strength, moving fast and hitting hard while able to endure a lot of damage, as seen during his fight with Konrad. Even moreso in his [[SuperpoweredEvilSide Berserk Mode]]. |
| 32 | * MarkedChange: In his Berserk Mode he gains black markings down his eyes and throughout his arms and upper body. |
| 33 | * MeaningfulAppearance: Seth gets a pair of fingerless gloves from Yaga to help avoid the problem of the Fantasia he gathers around his arm disappearing when transferring it to his glove, letting him feel the Fantasia on his fingertips at all times. |
| 34 | * MeaningfulName: Seth is the name of the third son of Adam and Eve and brother of CainAndAbel and means "anointed". As the protagonist his goal is to destroy the Radiant to end the infected's suffering, and he's later revealed that he has [[spoiler:several horned "brothers"]]. |
| 35 | * TheMourningAfter: [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]] as their bond never ''quite'' reached a romantic level but [[spoiler: Hameline's death ends up traumatizing Seth to such a degree he ends up splitting off from Mélie and Doc for a while.]] |
| 36 | * NotSoDifferentRemark: |
| 37 | ** In this first chapter, Alma points out that what he did, attacking cows thinking that they were nemeses and turning a village against him, isn't that different from nemeses themselves, corrupting everything in their path and plunging entire villages into chaos. The Bravery Quartet point this out to Seth again, but he beats them up and later saves the boss from the Nemesis. |
| 38 | ** Everything she says about her life are things that Seth has experienced himself. She even points out that Seth uses words like "us" and "them" when talking about infected and non-infected, which she thinks proves they are exactly in the same boat, no matter how much Seth denies it. [[spoiler:And he eventually ''agrees'', fooling Hameline into thinking he wants to join her… but he refuses to give in to revenge.]] Narratively, she leads Seth to nuance his own views for the first time, while ''he'' encourages her to nuance hers. |
| 39 | * OverlyLongName: "Jean-Pedrovitch de la Noche Salomon Grispépin Wondersmith", the name randomly given to him by Master Lord Majesty after Seth joins the Artemis. The anime gives him the title of "King of Debt" instead. |
| 40 | * PowerPalms: After training with Myr his ''Titan Punch'' is enhanced into a spell called ''Pulsar'' which consists in stricking with shockwaves of Fantasia from his hands. |
| 41 | * PowerCopying: Copies the technique of Nemeses cushioning their landing when jumping from the tower, which he ''just'' saw, during his fight with Konrad. He's also shown to rapidly learn how to use the miniaturization spell only after seeing it a couple of time. |
| 42 | * PreAsskickingOneLiner: Delivers a glorious one at the end of his fight against Santori: |
| 43 | --> '''Seth:''' ...which one of us is a slave?\ |
| 44 | '''Santori:''' [[FlatWhat What?]]\ |
| 45 | '''Seth:''' Between you and I... Which one is the slave of his stupid ideals? |
| 46 | * TheRightHandOfDoom: In the chapter 102, upon [[spoiler:fusing with his bracelet made of Jill's barks]], Seth's right arm takes a wooden appearance and grows branches-like expansion. This arm gives him the ability to [[ManaDrain absorb the fantasia from enemy spells]]. |
| 47 | * ShipTease: Has some with Mélie, who blushes when he holds her hand in thanks. |
| 48 | * ShonenHair: The HotBlooded main character and has messy, spiky brown hair that juts out in different directions. |
| 49 | * SleevesAreForWimps: His normal outfit is an orange tank top underneath a sleeveless hoodie-jacket. |
| 50 | * StockShonenHero: [[ZigZaggingTrope Zig-Zagged.]] Seth is easy to identify as a shonen protagonist, being a [[BookDumb Book dumb]] teenager with [[ShonenHair spiky black hair]] and a [[HotBlooded punch first, ask question later]] kind of attitude. However, he rapidly loses his happy go lucky demeanor to become a bit of a KnightInSourArmor at times. He doesn't have any [[StockShonenRival rivals]] and doesn't show any BloodKnight tendencies, often trying to defuse situation by speaking rather than punching. |
| 51 | * SuperpoweredEvilSide: Piodon removing the bandage on his cheek lets him access his Berserk Mode, turning him stronger at the cost of becoming feral and unable to differentiate between friend or foe. He gains some control over this form after training with Myr. |
| 52 | * TheseHandsHaveKilled: Seth has been feeling remorseful by the fact he killed Konrad, even having in his mind that this man was a racist genocider. To his own relieve, Dart revealed to him that Konrad didn't die by his hands. |
| 53 | * ThouShaltNotKill: Seth usually held back in his fights against humans to avoid killing them. |
| 54 | * ToBeAMaster: [[DefiedTrope Defied.]] Seth doesn't care about being "the greatest sorcerer" or the best at this or that, getting stronger is just a means to an end for him. It reflects the author's distaste for competition in his own field. |
| 55 | * UnskilledButStrong: While he's fast and agile enough to dodge attacks and can use a magic shield, Seth's fighting style (especially early on) can usually be summed up by "punch stuff, and if that doesn't work, punch harder." As a result he ends up taking quite a bit of abuse, and his magic barrier doesn't always work due to his enemies often wielding weapons made of anti-Fantasia materials. This eventually gets subverted as he obtains new powers to add to his arsenal. |
| 56 | * WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: Defied. At first because of the terrible persecution he faced as a child, Seth wanted to use his magic to lay waste on every person who discriminated against him. However, thanks to Alma, he resisted this desire and decided to not become the monster that these people think he is. As a result, Seth always strives for acceptance and coexistence even in spite of the rampant persecution of sorcerers. |
| 57 | * WrongContextMagic: Seth is one of the few sorcerers who can use Fantasia ''without'' a tool. This makes him a target for the Inquisition, with Torque trying to capture him. |

| 60 | [[folder:Mélie]] |
| 61 | [[quoteright:263:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/melie_radiant_7.png]] |
| 62 | !!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/AoiYuuki (Japanese), Creator/CaitlinGlass (English) |
| 63 | |
| 64 | A kind and polite young woman, specialized in magic traps, who lives in the Artemis Institute. Problem is, her infection causes brutal and unpredictable personality changes that turn her into an aggressive and spiteful girl. She's always accompanied by a small, flying, horned creature she calls Mr. Boobrie. |
| 65 | ---- |
| 66 | * AnimeHair: Her hairstyle is made up of thick, curled pigtails that rest over one another. |
| 67 | * BarrierWarrior: Since she's specialized in traps, most of her combat spells are defensive in nature… unless she's in her angry mode, in which case she can wield some pretty scary offensive magic. |
| 68 | * ChainPain: Her trap spell ''Gravem Carserem'' creates a giant sphere wrapped with chains to trap a nemesis. |
| 69 | * {{Chickification}}: While still badass to an extent, Mélie acts a bit more childish and needs to be saved more often in the anime (especially in the filler episodes). |
| 70 | * DarkActionGirl: With her powers active, she becomes a violent combatant. |
| 71 | * EnemyWithin: [[spoiler:Well, kind of. Her third personality, while clearly quite mentally unstable, never seems to act with any malice towards others and really seems to be more of a threat to herself than others, and still considers herself a friend to the other protagonists. On the other hand, she does not get along with her other two personalities, supressing them inside her subconsious at the first chance she gets.]] |
| 72 | * ExpositoryHairstyleChange: Her hair is in a shorter style in flashbacks back to when her [[spoiler:sister Vénélope was still alive.]] |
| 73 | * ExpositoryPronoun: Uses the polite second person pronoun "vous" to address others, even Mr. Boobrie. After the Cyfandir arc, she unconsciously starts to use "tu" with Seth, which the latter gleefully points out. |
| 74 | * FieryRedhead: When her infection kicks in she becomes much more violent and irritable. Strangely enough, Mr. Boobrie seems to be in love with that version of her. Even Ocoho prefers her that way, since angry!Mélie makes a perfect sparring partner. |
| 75 | * HavingABlast: In her angry persona she can use the strong attack spell ''Ignis Rumpere'' to shoot out explosive projectiles from her wand. They can even be used a explosive mines. |
| 76 | * IJustWantToHaveFriends: Because her infection makes everyone afraid of her. She's so desperate to have friends that she made human-shaped cardboard cutouts that she talks to when she's alone. She even tries to get Seth to live with her out of sheer loneliness. |
| 77 | * ItsAllMyFault: Blames herself for Doc seemingly dying, thinking that they could have had more time to escape if not for her fit. She's ''really'' relieved when she founds out that he just molted. |
| 78 | * LonelyDollGirl: A variation -- she pretends to talk with cardboard cutouts of people out of loneliness because of her [[MoodSwinger fits]], a fact she tries to embarrassingly hide from Seth. |
| 79 | * LongHairIsFeminine: Mélie has long, curled red hair and is a sincerely, friendly girl who often dresses in girly outfits. |
| 80 | * ManaDrain: She can summon a Lantern of Relinquishment, redirecting the Fantasia a sorcerer or Nemesis uses after putting a spell on them into the lantern to absorb all the Fantasia they'd use. |
| 81 | * MistakenForProstitute: Seth thinks she's one when Doc describes her to him. |
| 82 | -->'''Seth:''' This guy's looking for a redheaded escort with big knockers, wearing a skirt to take care of his package and do some things with him. |
| 83 | * MoodSwinger: Initially PlayedForLaughs, but eventually PlayedForDrama. Her mood swings are totally out of her control and have several times put her loved ones in danger, which caused her to be isolated and friendless. [[spoiler:This caused her to become a pariah back home due her infection previously causing her to become far more psychotic before the development of her angry! personality.]] |
| 84 | * MsFanservice: Pretty much stated by Doc when she's first mentioned: |
| 85 | -->''"You couldn't have missed her. She's a pretty redhead with big boobs, wearing a skirt."'' |
| 86 | * NiceGirl: As her normal self she's as sweet as can be, to the point of being slightly naive at times. |
| 87 | * PersonalityPowers: Mélie is usually a cheerful, nice girl and normally uses defensive trap spells. However, thanks to her infection, when switched to her angry persona she can use stronger, more offensive attack spells. |
| 88 | * QuirkyCurls: Mélie has her red hair in thick curls and she's a cheerful girl who's also vulnerable to fits of rage thanks to her infection. |
| 89 | * ShipTease: Has some with Seth, blushing when he holds her hand in thanks. |
| 90 | * SignificantGreenEyedRedhead: Big red hair and blue-green eyes, and TheHeroine of the story who joins Seth on his journey after they escape from the Inquisition together. |
| 91 | * SplitPersonality: While she’s a NiceGirl, when she comes under extreme stress (at least in the anime) her other personality takes over and she becomes a FieryRedhead. [[spoiler:It is later revealed she has a third far more psychotic personality which used to be the personality that would take over before the development of her Angry! personality.]] |
| 92 | * StoryboardBody: According to the author, her tattoos are meant to represent episodes of her life. The spider web for example [[spoiler:represents the Nemesis that killed her sister Vénélope.]] |
| 93 | * TrapMaster: Her speciality. She uses all sorts of parchments and other objects to trace and capture Nemesis, which comes in handy against [[TheBeastmaster Hameline]]. |
| 94 | * {{Unishment}}: Angry!Mélie actively invokes this on the very masochistic Mr. Boobrie, promising to give him a good beating as a reward if he follows Brangoire in the Cyfandir arc. She doesn't need to ask twice. |
| 95 | * YouRemindMeOfX: She reminds Seth of Alma no thanks to her fits of rage thanks to her infection. |

| 101 | Mélie's pet. He prefers her aggressive persona, rather than her normal one. Also, he is actually a she, not that Mélie knows that. |
| 102 | ---- |
| 103 | * HeadPet: She's often seen nesting on Mélie's giant red hair. |
| 104 | * HotBlooded: She's very aggressive, repeatedly pecking and biting Mélie during the ceremony at the Artemis Institute. |
| 105 | * MixAndMatchCritter: Looks like a bird with a beak, but has ram horns and bat wings. |

| 110 | !!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/ShintaroOhata (Japanese), Creator/ShawnGann (English) |
| 111 | |
| 112 | A researcher from the Artemis who doesn't use magic but makes a living by cleaning up and selling the remains of dead Nemesis. He also works as Mélie's informant, but he's terrible at it according to her. |
| 113 | ---- |
| 114 | * AccidentalHero: Plays an important role in the battle of Cyfandir [[spoiler:by activating the armor of Pen Draig, protecting the Queen, defeating the Thaumaturge Vérone, because he hid in the armor while carrying memory stones containing the spirits of old heroes and finding Myr's children after Jill's death stopping his and Seth's rampage.]] Doc being Doc, it was all entirely out of his control. |
| 115 | * BlessedWithSuck: Doc's infection allows him to be able to be reborn from his body once he dies. While being able to cheat death is quite the boon, it also forces him to grow back up from being a baby again. |
| 116 | * BornAgainImmortality: Not quite since him being immortal is debatable; his old body died in Rumble Town but his infection has him actually shed it and then he became a baby. |
| 117 | * HisNameReallyIsBarkeep: One might think that "Doc" is just a nickname, but it's actually the name written on his license. |
| 118 | * HopelessSuitor: One of the weirdest examples out there. He's in love with Miss Melba, a cute café waitress who's always talking to her "father" (actually a hand puppet) who "tells" her he disapproves of Doc. Doc himself doesn't seem to question it. |
| 119 | * LovableCoward: He's not a bad guy at heart, but prefers to stay as far away from danger as possible. Seth being the disaster magnet he is, Doc is understandably reluctant to help him at first. |
| 120 | * PoweredArmor: [[spoiler:The armor of Pen Draig which he accidentally activates while carrying memory stones in Cyfandir is a Fantasia powered, black-clad armor that grants him super speed, super strenght and an arsenal of weapons made of Fantasia. Lord Brangoire gifts him the armor after the battle for Cyfandir, though he is still too cowardly to voluntarily use it to fight.]] |
| 121 | * RapidAging: Drinks a potion that ages him up to a small kid before going to Cyfandir to not stay as a baby, later drinks it again and ends up being slightly older. |
| 122 | * SympathyForTheDevil: While he is still scared of the Inquisition, even he can't help but feel bad for the kids in the school of Bome who are in constant fear of being attacked by [[TheBeastMaster Domitors]], including Vérone [[spoiler:who almost lost his mom during the attack at the parade.]] |
| 123 | * WeirdnessMagnet: By virtue of being such a ''bad'' informant that he doesn't have any other clients, he ends up being Seth and Mélie's: |
| 124 | -->'''Doc:''' Why am I the only one attracting these weirdos?! |

| 129 | !!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/MaiFuchigami (JP), Alle Mims (EN) |
| 130 | |
| 131 | An aspiring Sorcerer Knight who brings trouble to herself more often than she'd like due to her rather hot-blooded temper. She rides a giant flying raccoon called Draccoon. |
| 132 | ---- |
| 133 | * BraidsOfAction: Sports one long braid on her side, fitting her impulsive character and love of action. |
| 134 | * CharacterTic: Has a habit of joining her hands in a triangle in front of her mouth when she smiles embarrassingly. |
| 135 | * DemBones: She has skull-shaped knee caps that she uses for her spell ''Déine'' that consists in shooting them while charged with Fantasia and controlling their trayectory. |
| 136 | * EarthyBarefootCharacter: Ocoho wears leaves with straps around the insteps of her feet, but has the rest bare. |
| 137 | * ExtremityExtremist: A rather peculiar instance, where she doesn't fight with her legs but her ''knees'' specifically. She has a special armor customed to that end. |
| 138 | * IDidWhatIHadToDo: How she justifies using her Gysoni on Mélie to escape a deadly situation, despite Mélie screaming and pleading against it because she considers the method to be a FateWorseThanDeath. [[spoiler:They survive because of Ocoho's actions, but the psychological torment of being forced to relive her worst memories reawakens Mélie's psychotic third alter and shatters her trust in Ocoho.]] |
| 139 | * LuckilyMyShieldWillProtectMe: She stores a round metallic shield within her armor, she can also [[ThrowingYourShieldAlwaysWorks throw it]] or use it to [[ShieldBash slam against enemies.]] |
| 140 | * MagicKnight: Since she's a Sorcerer Knight she's good at using knight weapons like broad swords and shields, skilled at hand to hand combat, can wield Fantasia and has strong psychic powers. |
| 141 | * PsychicAssistedSuicide: What [[spoiler:Mordred]] tries to do by using her infection [[spoiler:and ordering her to jump off the deck of a flying ship. Her Gysoni link with Draccoon snaps her out of it however, and she decides to use that very spell to manipulate ''him'' instead.]] |
| 142 | * PsychicPowers: She can use Gysoni, [[PsychicLink a spell that links her senses with those of a group so that they can act as one.]] [[spoiler:Except hers is so powerful she can take it to the level of PeoplePuppets.]] It's also noted that she has a real talent to see what's InvisibleToNormals, like the ghosts of extinct species in the Caillte forest. She also learns effortlessly to communicate mentally through the [[MentalWorld Sidh.]] |
| 143 | * ShipTease: Increasingly with Seth as the two grow closer, with Ocoho becoming comfortable enough to flirtily tease him. |

| 152 | |
| 153 | Seth's mentor and adoptive mother, who has no memories of her life before meeting with him. Her infection gives her frequent headaches, which partly explains her perpetually annoyed expression. |
| 154 | ---- |
| 155 | * TheDreaded: Alma is feared by anyone who has ever crossed her path. Even Yaga, a very powerful sorcerer, almost pisses his pants just because Seth ''imitates her'' for a second. |
| 156 | * HandicappedBadass: Despite losing a limb, she is still powerful. |
| 157 | * LifeOrLimbDecision: According to Seth, she had to cut off her own arm to prevent a Nemesis' curse from killing her. |
| 158 | * ParentalSubstitute: Alma's the closest thing Seth has to a mother, and despite her harshness and occasional abuse (PlayedForLaughs) she does cherish him. Later on, it becomes unclear [[spoiler:whether Seth even ''has'' biological parents to begin with.]] |

| 166 | ---- |
| 167 | * HazyFeelTurn: As Alma points out, Don and Jiji aren't actually reformed, since they only do good things she asks of them out of gratitude. If she ordered them to do something bad, they would do it with the same zeal. |
| 168 | * HeelFaceTurn: Sort of. Not wanting to keep the quartet captured in a cage, she freed them to help against nemeses in a neighboring islet... and then they tried to escape with Alma giving them a good beating, with the Boss and Jiji becoming loyal after she saved them from a Nemesis while the other two escaped while she was weakened after fighting it. |
| 169 | * IOweYouMyLife: Why Boss and Jiji become her loyal assistants -- she saved them from a Nemesis after they had escaped. |
| 170 | * StarterVillain: They resent uninfected people for their discrimination and, unlike Seth, have absolutely no intention of helping them or fighting the Nemesis. They mostly serve to contrast Seth's willingness to protect people despite his own rashness − and despite the fact that he does resent them for all the shit he and Alma have gone through. |

| 176 | |
| 177 | A bandaged man who often crosses paths with the protagonists and occasionally helps them, while seemingly pursuing his own mysterious goals. |
| 178 | ---- |
| 179 | * AfraidOfBlood: More specifically, he seems terrified of losing his ''own'' blood, to the point he collects every drop he loses in small flasks. |
| 180 | * BandageMummy: Why his body is entirely covered in bandages is unknown, which adds to his mystery. |
| 181 | * {{BFS}}: He has a ''giant'' sword called Kannibal that he wields to bifurcate Hameline's Nemeses. Fantasia gets absorbed and accumulated within the swing, increasing speed and precision, so with every swing it becomes easier to move around. |
| 182 | * CastingAShadow: His spell ''Nubes Spectris'' consists in summoning black specters resembling his appearance that obey his comandos to restraint or attack his enemies. |
| 183 | * CoatCape: He wears a black one. |
| 184 | * CombatMedic: His bandages are made of feathers from a feather tree and can use them to cure injuries and feel the pulse of others when wrapped around them. |
| 185 | * GratuitousLatin: All his named spells are Latin words. |
| 186 | * MagicKnight: Can wield his ''massive'' Kannibal with great skill and also has an arsenal of strong offensive spells. |
| 187 | * NamedAfterSomeoneFamous: His name comes from Creator/TheBrothersGrimm. |
| 188 | * PoorCommunicationKills: His seeming antagonism for Seth, Mélie, and Doc turns out to be this. He thought Seth was an accomplice to the Echoes' master, was actually talking about the Nemeses when he seemingly threatened Mélie and Doc, thought ''he'' was being trapped when they were actually trapping the Nemeses, and misinterpreted their reactions when he destroyed them. |
| 189 | * RobeAndWizardHat: Has a pointy wizard hat with a red feather. |

| 192 | * TechnicolorFire: His spell ''Procella'' shoots out a beam of blue flames. |
| 193 | * TheReveal: Whilst not all of his secrets are revealed, [[spoiler: Dart Dragunov eventually figures out from observing him that Grimm at one point used to be part of the Inquisition. This was foreshadowed by his bandaged sword and belt buckle, both of which are inquisitor-styled make, but with the sword's guard mostly broken off and bandaged to obscure it's appearance and the belt buckle's pointer parts sanded down. Grimm implies that he used to believe in the Inquisition like Dart before realising that being an InternalReformist was pointless]]. |
| 194 | * ThirdPersonPerson: Grimm always refers to himself this way, which gives him a haughty vibe, along with his very formal way of speaking. |
| 195 | * ThouShaltNotKill: States that he can't take any more lives when Seth asks if he can do ''something'' to stop Hameline. [[spoiler:The situation likely reminded him too much of his past as an Inquisitor, and all the bad memories that are heavily implied to be associated with his part]]. |
| 196 | * WalkingShirtlessScene: He only wears pants with his CoatCape being the only thing covering his upper body aside from his bandages. |

| 377 | * AffablyEvil: He may be working for the Inquisition, but at least he is friendly towards Seth and his friends and he does only his job as an Inquisitor Captain and later [[spoiler: a Thaumaturge]]. |
| 378 | * AntiVillain: He may be an Inquisitor [[spoiler: and later a Thaumaturge]] who hunts Wizards but he's a ReasonableAuthorityFigure and a BenevolentBoss towards his own men. |
| 379 | * DeadpanSnarker: Mostly shows this toward Konrad, who used to be his subordinate. A subdued way to show his hostility to the guy, especially when it becomes clear that Konrad is behind some dirty schemes. |
| 380 | * ExactWords: When Seth, still feeling guilty over having taken a life, asks Dart if he's ever killed someone like Konrad who had so much blood on his hands, Dart replies that he has. [[spoiler:Because it wasn't Seth who killed Konrad, but Dart himself.]] |

| 382 | * NobleDemon: Despite being an Inquisitor Captain, he chides his men for turning their backs on a woman trying to escape and shoots them down for refusing to tie down the Nemesis. He even lets Mélie go, shooting a Nemesis down instead of her. |
| 383 | * PersonalityPowers: [[spoiler: His Miracle allows him to teleport where he shoots his arrows]], this not only reflects his skilled aim and sharp mind, but also contrasts [[spoiler: with the Miracle of the other Thaumaturges, since his Miracle isn't used to fight Fantasia (Torque, Vérone) or is used to directly cause harm (Santori, Liselotte)]], this reflects his less hostile attitude against sorcerers. |
| 384 | * ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Usually knows when it becomes unreasonable to blindly chase the sorcerers while there are other priorities, and his attitute toward them is generally less hostile than the other inquisitors'. [[spoiler:In the Cyfandir arc, he even briefly sides with Mélie and Grimm to help them stop a rampaging Seth.]] |

When Vérone warns her of the potential consequences of pulling a stunt like that, Ullmina tries to pass her actions off as just a lapse in judgement, all while hiding a perverse smile and hoping to experience it again.]] |
| 434 | * PalmOnCheekPose: A frequent gesture of hers (with one or both hands), reinforcing her falsely sweet and dreamy attitude. |
| 435 | * PeoplePuppets: Her Miracle allows her [[spoiler:to control corpses, no matter how many there are. Now imagine being on a battlefield, killing hundreds of enemies and seeing hundreds of your countrymen die… then seeing those enemies ''and'' those countrymen suddenly back on their feet to kill you. She can use it on living peole, but it's implied to be much more dangerous for her.]] |
| 436 | * SupernaturalGoldEyes: Ullmina sports these, which matches both her frightnening powers and the fact she's by far the most religiously fanatic of the Thaumaturges. They're further contrasted by her dark skin. |

| 457 | * BitchInSheepsClothing: Knows how to use his age and fragile appearance to low his enemies guard down and trap them with his Miracle. |
| 458 | * EmotionSuppression: Being the illegitimate son of a positively insane Inquisitor and a callous King who treats both of them as liabilities, Vérone never had much of a normal childhood and was only ever taught the rigid doctrine of the Inquisition. His dialogues with [[spoiler:Doc]] in the Bome arc [[spoiler:when his mother his gravely wounded and hospitalized]] show that he plain ''doesn’t know'' how he’s supposed to feel in that situation. |
| 459 | * EnfantTerrible: Holds a frightening power and can kill without hesitation despite his young age. |
| 460 | * FreudianExcuse: As an unemotional child soldier showing no qualm in murdering people as long as they're on the opposite side, he could be described as a hot mess, but considering his mother is later revealed to be [[spoiler: [[CuteAndPsycho Ullmina]]]], and the [[ChildOfRape implied nature of her relationship with his father]], it's hard not to feel bad for him. |

| 470 | Inquisitor General who helms the Thaumaturges. He seeks to perpetuate the will of the "Patrem Inquisitor" and rid the world of sorcerers. |
| 471 | ---- |
| 472 | * AntiMagic: His power cancels out a sorcerer's Fantasia. |
| 473 | * AntiRegeneration: Because of his power, wounds caused by his sword can't be healed through magic. |
| 474 | * EvilVirtues: Despite being a genocidal maniac at the head of a fascist military power, he puts a lot of emphasis on the principle that one should always show restraint and never abuse their power idly. Of course, it does help that he remains blissfully blind to how corrupt the Inquisition is to its core. |
| 475 | * FourStarBadass: a General who leads the Thaumatruges. |
| 476 | * TheFundamentalist: To Torque, it doesn't matter how much good Seth has done or what the circumstances are-- as long as Seth exists, he sees him as a dangerous threat who ''must'' be killed regardless of what the justification is, and he won't tolerate anything that indicates this belief is incorrect, either dismissing it out of hand, or reacting with swift lethal violence to cut out the voices of dissension to his course of action. [[spoiler:When Dragunov reveals that he doesn't possess BlindObedience to the inquisition, it's not his admittance of murder regarding Konrad or revealing that he has opposed his fellow inquisitors in their duties before that turns Torque against him, it's realising that Seth trusts Dart that pushes him into TranquilFury and drives him to try and cut him down with his sword immediately, not even listening to Dart's ArmourPiercingResponce over Seth admitting his [[TheseHandsHaveKilled regret over Konrad's death]] as a sign the boy is better than Torque claims he is]]. |
| 477 | -->'''Torque:''' A mind corrupted by sorcery can't differentiate reality from delusion. But he is responsible for his actions nonetheless. |
| 478 | * KickTheDog: One of his first onscreen actions is mercilessly killing Hamline InTheBack after the HopeSpot that Seth had been able to talk her down from her destructive {{Revenge}} for her past mistreatment, and then going not to loudly frame her as just another crazed Domitor threatening innocent lives to the civilians in the area, rather than the TragicVillain she was, but then going on to beat Seth viciously and accuse him of crimes he hasn't committed, condemning him for his 'sins' despite Seth being innocent. Even when it's later clarified that the crimes in question were done by Seth's fellow Horned Brethren, and are hinted to be exaggerated or framed for them by the Inquisition in any case, it's heavily implied that Torque either sees all the horned children as the same person without considering their individuality, or doesn't care about the truth of the matter so long as they are executed regardless, seeing them as inherent threats to the stability of the world merely by existing. |
| 479 | * MasterSwordsman: He is very strong fighting with his sword made of white silver and when uses his Miracle everything standing in his way gets instantly sliced to pieces. |
| 480 | * PretentiousLatinMotto: His sword has enscripted the words Post Tenebras Lux (which translates to After Darkness, Light). |
| 481 | * RedBaron: He is called the "The Beast" for relentlesly bringing down sorcerers. |

| 489 | Claims to be Seth's older brother, despite Seth himself having never heard of him. He's a sorcerer, yet seems to work with the Inquisitor General Torque. |
| 490 | ---- |
| 491 | * AffablyEvil: At least what is implied from [[spoiler:Diabal's testimony.]] He's always polite and composed, even genial, but his actions don't paint him as someone who particularly cares for his "brother"'s well-being. |
| 492 | * HunterOfTheirOwnKind: Piodon is one of three Sorcerors, titled the Conversos, who serves as members of the Thaumaturges. They were awarded their title and special privilege by helping to quell a past rebellion in Bome. Piodon in particular [[spoiler: is specifically hunting down Seth and the other horned boys]]. |
| 493 | * IHaveManyNames: Introduces himself to Seth as Piodon, but the Inquisition know him as Syrdon. Whether either of these is his actual name remains a mystery. |
| 494 | * LongLostSibling: What he claims to be to Seth [[spoiler:and several other horned boys.]] It's not clear, however, what he means by "brother", since Seth had never heard of him before their meeting. |
| 495 | * ManipulativeBastard: Increasingly implied to be this as the story progresses. First, in the Rumble Town arc, he awakens an extremely dangerous power within Seth, that saves the latter's life but also threatens to swallow him whole. Later [[spoiler:we learn that Seth is far from the first horned boy who met with Piodon, and none of them had a happy ending.]] Combined with the fact that he works with the Inquisition for unknown reasons, he's clearly not the most trustworthy guy out there. |

| 506 | * TheQuisling: Adriel genuinely believes that by helping the Inquisition as a Converso, he can improve the image of Infected people and help them get accepted by "normal" people rather than feared. When he brings up a scene of children playing "Infected" with fake wings and whatnot to prove his point, his sister replies that he’s just reinforcing the idea that a good Infected is a submissive one. |
| 507 | * WorthyOpponent: Adriel pursues Seth after the latter mistakenly infiltrates the Royal Palace of Bome. He takes an immediate interest in Seth due to his ability to evade him and even has a impressed smirk when Seth broke out of his binding. |

| 532 | ---- |
| 533 | * ArrogantKungFuGuy: He gets real angry when he learns that Seth wasn't fighting him with his full power until then, thinking that he was making ''fun'' of him, then going on to brag about how he's beaten dozen of sorcerers with his bare hands. |
| 534 | * AssholeVictim: [[spoiler:After being seriously injured by Seth and sent crashing into part of a structure that buried him with rubble, Dart stepped in to end his life. Given how much of a murder-lusting racist Konrad was, his death goes unmourned]]. |
| 535 | * BaldOfEvil: Another early sign that he's not gonna be a nice guy. |
| 536 | * FalseFlagOperation: Konrad's plan [[spoiler:was for Hameline to deploy her Nemesis under cover of the constant evacuation drills, then eventually when her forces are built up enough, break out and attack the city, strategically targeting areas to make sure the undesirable elements are evacuated/corralled into one district, then drop the main tower's giant bell on them. Afterward, Konrad would use the fresh fear of sorcerers to whip the people into a frenzy and unleash them on the remaining immigrants.]] |
| 537 | * HateSink: He's defined entirely by his treachery and bigotry, which is so twisted that he sees himself as a "savior". |
| 538 | * HotBlooded: Despite his position, it becomes very clear that he's a hot head when he interacts with Dragunov. |
| 539 | * JoustingLance: Wields a giant one as his weapon, made of white silver to repel Fantasia. The tip can double as a GrapplingHookPistol. |
| 540 | * KilledOffForReal: It's later clarified that [[spoiler:Konrad was indeed found dead after his and Seth's fight in Rumble Town, causing the boy some emotional anguish over having taken a life by accident, regardless of how heinous and deserving of his fate Konrad was. However, it's later clarified that Konrad was badly injured in their fight, but still alive from the beating and buried in the rubble, his injuries treatable-- but Dart made certain he wouldn't get the chance to kill anybody else]]. |
| 541 | -->'''[[spoiler:Dart:]]''' Think about it. [[spoiler:He thought he had killed Konrad and he regretted it! While I only regretted... that I hadn't killed him sooner!]] |
| 542 | * KnightTemplar: Sees himself as a savior, exchanging his people's survival for the sacrifice of a "few cockroaches" -- in this case the immigrants of Rumble Town. |
| 543 | * TheMagnificent: Proclaims himself as Konrad the Rampart, for being the last line of defense against heretics. He can only think of himself as the Rampart before Seth beats him. |
| 544 | * NamedAfterSomeoneFamous: Konrad de Marbourg was the first German inquisitor in the [=13th=] century. |
| 545 | * NotSoWellIntentionedExtremist: He wants all immigrants dead claiming they "soil" his town. The fact that he has no problem killing those who are native to the town undercuts his claims however and he is nothing more than a xenophobic monster. |
| 546 | * PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: His prime goal is to rid Rumble Town of immigrants [[spoiler:− he already killed many (indirectly but willingly) during the Norst-East Suburb incident −]] and he's notorious even among his co-inquisitors for being a racist jerk. The author clarifies that some of his dirtiest lines are almost verbatim quotes from real politicians, including former French Prime Minister Manuel Valls. |
| 547 | * SilverHasMysticPowers: His white silver lance, unlike black silver which is vulnerable to long-distance attacks, can more easily pierce through any spell with the higher the concentration of Fantasia. |

| 618 | ---- |
| 619 | * KnuckleTattoos: Has the letters of "QUEEN" tatooed on each of her knuckles. Just another detail to emphasize her massive ego. |
| 620 | * LargeAndInCharge: Her infection turned her into a giant woman, taking StatuesqueStunner to a whole new level. She's also every bit as powerful and charismatic as her size suggests, and messing with her kingdom − home to thousands of sorcerers − is a very bad idea. It's safe to say her sole presence is part of the reason the Inquisition has left Cyfandir alone. |
| 621 | * ParentalSubstitute: Has [[spoiler:Myr and Jill's]] children magically transplanted into her womb so they can come to term after their mother is killed. |
| 622 | * ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Boadicée takes an immediate liking to Ocoho, advising her to take her occasional disregard for orders in moderation. [[spoiler: She even ends up naming Ocoho as her heir after the battle for her bravery in being willing to CallingTheOldManOut]]. |
| 623 | * ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: The way she talks about previous sorcerer-kings heavily implies her infection also affected her aging as well. She will likely outlive most other humans. |
| 624 | * ScarsAreForever: Boadicée ends up gaining a rather large scar on the left side of her face after her fight with Santori. Given her tendency to flaunt her beauty and her own sloth on the throne leading to dissention in her country, it could be a light case of LaserGuidedKarma. That said, she's not bothered by the scar at all and still views her beauty as unmatched. |

| 645 | * EtTuBrute: Volume 9 reveals that he was a spy sent by his father (a baron-merchant) and manipulated Ocoho to further the barons' plan to claim Cyfandir's land. |
| 646 | * LackOfEmpathy: His infection made him completely emotionless, so he has absolutely no qualms betraying and killing even his closest friends.
