Line #20 Characters/AscensionTheEagles


1	The Eagles of ''VisualNovel/Ascension2013'' are a group of [[TheDreaded dreaded]] bandits who had massacred the Knight Order. They are the antagonists of the first chapter, since they had killed Sky's father and had stolen the journals of Sky's mother, which contained sensitive information about the Old Kingdom.

3	* AloofArcher: The Eagles are trained in archery and fit the cold, calculating stereotype.
4	* BoomHeadshot: They are famed for these.
5	* PokeThePoodle: At first, when King Adrian ruled, this was all they were capable of. With King Adrian's death, they've become far more dangerous.

17	** He buys Kole a ticket to the concert of a bard that he admires.

37	[[folder:Kole]]
38	!!'''Kole'''
39
40	A Kaleik-born Eagle who is sent to guard Aida during the third chapter by Diego. Due to his being an Eagle, and being involved in the death of Sky's parents, it takes time before Aida and Sky warm up to him. Like all Kaleiks, he has an enhanced hearing sense and can hear conversations from far away.
41	----
42	* ApologisesALot
43	* ArousedByTheirVoice: As a Kaleik, he has a splendid singing and speaking voice. He is also an excellent flutist.
44	* BadassAdorable: He is one of the [[NiceGuy nicest guys]] in Ascension, and he gets flustered easily around Aida and Sky. He was also praised by Diego for his fighting skill, he defended Aida and helped her beat away some pirates while they were aboard the Savage Princess, and he punched Diego's lights out when the team realized that Diego had sent [[spoiler: Aida on what could have been a suicide mission]].
45	* BewareTheNiceOnes: As Diego can attest to, Kole can be pretty violent when those under his protection are endangered and [[spoiler: put through a major TraumaCongaLine]].
46	* ChekhovsGun: He was the one who sent the "friendly letter" to Aida all the way back in chapter 1, telling her to stop asking about the Eagles.
47	* DisabilitySuperpower: He is blind, and as a Kaleik he can hear things from far away.
48	* BodyguardingABadass: Not that [[DefrostingIceQueen Aida]] is all too welcoming of him at first...
49	* ButtMonkey: He was this as part of the Eagles; they tricked him into thinking there was a flesh-eating demon attacking his camp.
50	* CreepyGood: Sky and Aida are weirded out by him at first, as well as resentful towards him.
51	* HandicappedBadass: He knocks out five pirates in the third chapter with his bare fists.
52	* LoveMakesYouDumb: When Aida chooses to flirt with him, he turns into an awkward, bumbling mess.
53	* MonochromaticEyes / ProphetEyes: A typical trait of Kaleiks.
54	* NiceGuy
55	* ParentalAbandonment: His parents, along with his travelling camp, abandoned him in the woods due to his being born blind, which was considered a horrible curse in Kaleik tradition. Strangely, he doesn't resent them at all for this; instead, he is glad they got rid of him because they were pressured into doing so.
56	* TokenGoodTeammate: Unlike other Eagles, Kole would never hurt an innocent human. Diego even calls him the "good one" of the Eagles, and says he gave him the bodyguard job to "spare" him.
