4	!!Shallistera Argo
5	->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KotoriKoiwai (Japanese), Creator/JennieKwan (English)
6
7	* AffectionateNickname: "Shallie", but later opts for "Stera".
8	* AChildShallLeadThem: Shallistera becomes her village's chief in one of her endings.
9	* ChildhoodFriends: With Kortes.
10	* CountryMouse: A trait ruthlessly exploited by the Stellard natives.
11	* CutenessProximity: She finds fluffy animals so endearing that she was willing to travel the Dusk Sea until she petted them all.
12	* {{Deuteragonist}}: If playing as Shallotte.
13	* ExtremeDoorMat: Kortes worries that Shallistera's innocence and politeness will lead to her becoming this. Given how quick she is to accept blame for [[spoiler:the Sand Dragon's rampage]] and how she can be easily manipulated into feeling guilty, he has a point.
14	* TheGift: It's noted one needs natural talent to use alchemy and brought up. In fact, those born in her village with the most alchemic talent are those considered successors to the chief.
15	* HimeCut: Shallistera sports this. Fitting, as she's the chief's daughter and considered to be possess a similar status to a princess.
16	* ImprobableWeaponUser: A chime.
17	* MeaningfulName: She shares her last name with the ship used by the [[Myth/GreekMythology Greek mythological hero]] Jason. Fittingly, she's also the owner of a ship. Her first name, Shallistera, is shortened to "Stera", which in Japanese is pronounced the same as "Stella", which is Latin for "star", a possible reference to celestial navigation used by navigators.
18	* NaiveNewcomer: In regards to the city and the world in general.
19	* NiceGirl: She's very kind and polite.
20	* ProperTightsWithSkirt: Her outfit.
21	* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: Sets out to find out the cause of the Dusk Sea in order to help her village.
22	* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: Shallotte and Shallistera respectively.
23	* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Meat.
24	* WiseBeyondTheirYears: Due to carrying the heavy responsibilities of being the next in line for chief at a young age. That being said, she does have issues such as not being able to read a room or consider factors like timing. Asking to talk about your village's issues right after you've crashed into a harbor isn't really wise.
25
26
27	!!Shallotte Elminus
28	->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/SumireUesaka (Japanese), Creator/SarahAnneWilliams (English)
29
30	* AffectionateNickname: "Shallie", but later opts for "Lotte".
31	* AlmightyJanitor: Shallotte is a street sweeper for the Co-operative Union that can become an alchemy expert and try to save the world.
32	* BroomstickQuarterstaff: Shallotte's weapons are brooms, which reinforce her AlmightyJanitor status as well as her dream of flying around like a witch.
33	* CallOfTheWildBlueYonder: After seeing (and getting rescued by) Wilbell flying on a broom, Shallotte develops a strong desire to learn how to fly. Unfortunately, she's not a witch, so she can't use the flight magic Wilbell does. [[spoiler:Eventually, she creates a Flying Board which allows her to fly using the power of alchemy.]]
34	* ChildhoodFriends: With Miruca and Albert.
35	* {{Deuteragonist}}: If playing as Shallistera.
36	* DisappearedDad: Her father died when she was young.
37	* GenkiGirl: Remains largely upbeat regardless of the situation.
38	* HiddenBuxom: Her official art does a fairly good job at hiding how busty she actually is compared to her in-game model and most of the older women in the game.
39	* JumpedAtTheCall: Her prologue event has her lamenting about not getting any work beyond cleaning the streets. When Shallistera's ship crashes into Stellard, she immediately latches onto another job Raoul was unable to do himself due to the commotion, leading to her meeting Wilbell.
40	* MoralityPet: Perriend treats her nicely as the daughter of his former secretary, in comparison to the ToughLove he shows to Shallistera.
41	* OddFriendship: With Miruca.
42	* PluckyGirl: She lives in the poor section of town, litter-collecting for a living and getting no respect and even less money from those who employ her. She soldiers on regardless.
43	* ShipperOnDeck: In the Plus and DX remakes, she’s quick to assume Escha and Logy are involved, and does so again with Ayesha and Keith.
44	* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: Shallote is the Tomboy, and Shallistera is the Girly Girl.

47	[[folder:Other party members]]
48	!!Kortes Argo
49	----
50	Childhood friend of Shallistera and son of Teo.
51
52	* BigBrotherMentor: Kortes acts as this to Shallistera. She even calls him Kortes-niisama in the Japanese dub. We later learn that since their village members don't have last names and use the name of the village, they all consider one another family.
53	* CountryMouse: Kortes used to be one, until experience taught him to be less trusting.
54	* DishingOutDirt: His attacks are earth-based.
55	* FacialMarkings: Has tribal markings on his face.
56	* HealingHands: His Healing Palm skill.
57	* JerkassHasAPoint: Actually more like "cynic has a point". He is prickly and suspicious when dealing with the city officials, which seems counterproductive when he and his delegation are asking for help... but his attitude is proved totally justified. For example, he outright tells Raoul that he doesn't trust the Cooperative to keep its word, and sure enough, whenever Shallie has done enough work to reasonably expect assistance in return, Raoul keeps MovingTheGoalposts.
58	* MorphWeapon: His weapon, which changes from a staff to a spear to a mace depending on what he's doing. Shallie explains it that hes using the power of various talismans through his rod to unleash his attacks.
59	* StanceSystem: He has Attack and Defense stances, which change his available skills.
60	* StuffBlowingUp: Kortes ''Explosive Strike'' skill.
61	* UndyingLoyalty: To Shallistera.
62
63	!!Jurie Crotze
64	->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/EricaLindbeck (English)
65	----
66	A treasure hunter working for the Union. She's the sister of Miruca and is familiar with Kortes.
67
68	* ActionGirl: All of the playable girls qualify, but Jurie deserves special mention as someone that fights monsters for a living.
69	* {{Bookworm}}: Is often seen reading in her events and is noted to be a talented writer.
70	* CoolBigSis: To Miruca, her actual sister, and Shallistera.
71	* DualWielding: Uses two daggers in combat.
72	* HumbleGoal: Her goal is to write a book that children like.
73	* TheMentor: To Kortes when he was younger.
74	* ParentalSubstitute: To Miruca, since their [[ParentalAbandonment parents are gone.]]
75	* ScarfOfAssKicking: Shaped like the infinity symbol.
76	* ThrowDownTheBomblet: Her ''Smoke Bomb'' skill functions more like this.
77	* TreasureHunter: She introduces herself as one.
78
79	!!Miruca Crotze
80	->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/RinaHidaka (Japanese), Creator/MelaLee (English)
81	----
82	An imbuer who studied in Central before returning to the city. Friend of Shallotte and sister of Jurie.
83
84	* AffectionateNickname: Calls Shallotte "Shal".
85	* AllergicToRoutine: Finds her work imbuing boring because of this.
86	* {{BFG}}: Her weapon is a large gun that fires metal spikes.
87	* BrutallyHonest: As an example, in ''Plus'', the first thing she does upon seeing Logy is tell him that she doesn't like people who studied in Central.
88	* ChildhoodFriends: With Shallotte and Albert.
89	* TheGift: Noted for having some talent in Alchemy.
90	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: She acts cold on the outside, but she's a big softie on the inside.
91	* LittleMissSnarker: And HOW!
92	* OddFriendship: With Shallotte.
93	* OlderThanTheyLook: Her short height makes her look a few years younger than 16.
94	* PerpetualFrowner: It's nearly identical to Solle's.
95	* PirateGirl: Has several color variations of a pirate outfit in the plus remake.
96	* WhenSheSmiles: Wears a small, cute smile in a CG for her final friendship event when she's spending time with Jurie.
97
98	!!Wilbell Voll-Erslied
99	->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/AsamiSeto (Japanese), Creator/CristinaVee (English)
100	* ElementalPowers: They're not her own, but she borrows the power of elemental spirits. She still has [[BlowYouAway wind]] powers from VideoGame/AtelierAyesha, and [[PlayingWithFire fire]] from VideoGame/AtelierEschaAndLogy, and eventually contracts with the [[MakingASplash water spirit]].
101	* HypocriticalHumor: She makes a comment when she runs into Shallistera about how the alchemist dresses funny, when she dresses in an even more noticeable outfit.
102	* TheMentor: Becomes this to Shallotte.
103	* SoProudOfYou: In the Plus remake, [[spoiler:she finally gets acknowledged by her great great grandmother.]]
104
105	!!Homura
106	A treasure hunter working for the Union that feels grateful to Shallestera's village for helping him in the past. He joins her cause.
107	----
108	* AffectionateNickname: Shallotte calls him "Homhom".
109	* BadassAdorable: Homunculi are {{Ridiculously Cute Critter}}s, but this doesn't make Homura any less of a fighter or adventurer.
110	* {{BFS}}: Not to a normal human, but to someone as small as Homura, his sword looks huge.
111	* BlowYouAway: His attacks are wind-based.
112	* GlacierWaif: The smallest party member, yet he can equip heavy armor.
113	* IaijutsuPractitioner: His attacks revolved around this.
114	* OddFriendship: Is very close friends with Solle, to the point where they could be considered HeterosexualLifePartners.
115	* ResurrectiveImmortality: As a homunculus, Homura comes back to life shortly after he dies.
116	* RidiculouslyCuteCritter: No one can resist his cuteness. Not even [[NotSoStoic Miruca.]]
117	* SweetTooth: One of the reasons why he gets along with Solle so well is because of their mutual love of sweets.
118
119	!!Keithgriff Hazeldine
120	->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/JojiNakata (Japanese), Creator/RichardEpcar (English)
121	----
122	* EstablishingCharacterMoment: His first meeting with Shallistera involves him insulting them for only wanting to save their own village instead of the world, calling a conversation a waste of time, and hoping not to meet them again.
123	* TheDrifter: Still on his trip around the world.
124	* ForScience: At some points, the others worry that he will go too far and dissect Homura or Flameu's seed in the name of research.
125	* HumansAreBastards: His overall worldview, which he explains to the alchemists of this game regarding the nature of the Dusk and of the crisis facing Stellard.
126	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Despite his general demeanor, misanthropy, and distaste for those he perceived as too lazy to help themselves, he is genuinely helpful to both Shallies and cares deeply about the impending crisis facing the world.
127	* TheMentor: Still serves as this to his apprentice Ayesha, although he says that she’s learned all his techniques by now.
128	* PetTheDog: Getting into contact with Ayesha in order to make medicine for Nady on behalf of the Shallie's. In the remake, he gives Shallistera a recipe that will work, but Ayesha herself has to aid her with the actual synthesis.
129	* SeekerArchetype: Remains as such from the first game, traveling around in search of knowledge and with little patience for others.
130	* SmokingIsCool: Still has that pipe, though Ayesha's managed to get him to start smoking healthy herbs now.
131
132	!! Solle Grumman
133	->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/RayChase (English)
134	Former accountant of the Colseit branch, dispatched to Stellard to aid in combating the drought.
135	----
136	* BadassBureaucrat: Fights with a clipboard, which he uses to issue orders to his Homunculi assistants.
137	* BeleagueredBureaucrat: Often seen processing mountains of paperwork, much to his chagrin.
138	* DownloadableContent: Is playable as DLC, and joins by default in the ''Plus'' and ''DX'' versions.
139	* SweetTooth: Just like in his home game, his knack for baking sweets helps him bond further with Homura, and he even partakes in a baking contest late in the game.
140
141	!! Escha Malier
142	->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/RieMurakawa (Japanese), Creator/MarieveHerington (English)
143	The main female protagonist of the previous game. She has been called in from Colseit to assist with the investigation of the Dusk. She also set up a shop outside the Union.
144	----
145	* BackToBackBadasses: Her and Logy's shared ultimate move starts off with such a pose.
146	* ClingyJealousGirl: Acts this way when [[NeatFreak Logy]] spends time helping Miruca clean up her atelier, to the point she messes up her own storefront just to get him back.

155	* SweetTooth: There's a reason a request for sweets popped up the moment she did.
156
157	!! Logix Ficsario
158	->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KaitoIshikawa (Japanese), Creator/MaxMittelman (English)
159	The main male protagonist of the previous game. He has been called in from Colseit to assist with the investigation of the Dusk. He only appears in the ''Plus'' and ''DX'' versions.
160	----
161	* BackToBackBadasses: His and Escha's shared ultimate move starts off with such a pose.
162	* BeleagueredBureaucrat: Although he's a renowned and highly capable alchemist who was sent to Stellard to help investigate the Dusk, many of his events consists of him assisting Solle with the mountains of paperwork he has to process. At one point, Logy even [[ExistentialHorror wonders if the real reason he was dispatched to Stellard was to do paperwork]].
163	** Can become even more of one along with Escha in one of Shallistera’s endings, where [[spoiler:he and Escha are promoted to management for the new Stellard Branch and thus have even more paperwork to handle.]]
164	* TheBusCameBack: After being relegated to a cameo at the end of the base game, he becomes a playable character with an active role in the story in the remakes.
165	* CoolSword: Reprises from his home game.
166	* GadgeteerGenius: As expected from someone who used to develop airships. [[spoiler:When Shallotte synthesizes the Flying Board, he even helps her fine tune it so it doesn’t send her flying when she uses it.]]
167	* TheGift: Subverted; as a practitioner of Central style alchemy, he explains to the Shallies that he believes he will be less useful in combatting the Dusk than they, Escha, Ayesha and Keithgriff will be, as they have the natural talent to use old style alchemy.
168	* LazyArtist: His official art is a palette swap from his ''Escha & Logy'' appearance, despite being six years older.
169	* LightningBruiser: Is very fast and all of his skills deal heavy damage.
170	* NeatFreak: Is shown to be horrified by how messy Miruca's atelier is, to the point he keeps insisting on putting things in order. Escha later tries exploiting this to get him to spend more time with her instead.
171
172	!! Ayesha Altugle
173	->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/MarinaInoue (Japanese), Creator/ErikaHarlacher (English)
174	The protagonist of the first game. She has now become Keithgriff's apprentice and assists him in his research in the Dusk Sea. She only appears in the ''Plus'' and ''DX'' versions.
175	----
176	* AdventurerArchaeologist: As expected of Keithgriff's apprentice. It's also how she wound up on Central's wanted list six years ago, as she [[DugTooDeep went too deep into some ancient ruins and ended up destroying them]].
177	* [[BigBrotherInstinct Big Sister Instinct]]: She left Nio back in Colseit because of the potential dangers of her line of work and of the Dusk Sea. [[spoiler:Later on, Escha figures out that this isn’t entirely true, and gets the truth out of Ayesha: that she left Nio in Colseit because she hadn't decided on what to do with her life yet, and that living with her and Keith would mean Nio, too, would have to live on the run from Central. Whether Nio chooses to live an ordinary life among society or to join her sister on the run is left unknown at the end.]]
178	* TheBusCameBack: After being absent from the previous game relegated to a cameo at the end of the base game, she becomes a playable character with an active role in the story in the remakes.
179	* ButForMeItWasTuesday: Regularly accomplishes very dangerous tasks, such as exploring trap-filled ruins and crossing the Dusk Sea by herself, all while saying it’s completely normal, much to the stunned shock of Wilbell and all the younger alchemists.
180	* CallBack: Several of her skills (Bright Craft, Himmelschenk, Genuk Rain and Exabomb) correspond to items she could synthesize in her home game.
181	* EvenTheGirlsWantHer: Shallistera repeatedly comments on her beauty, and Wilbell expresses shock that she hasn't gotten married and had kids by now.
182	* GeniusDitz: Retains the same easygoing personality while being very intelligent, knowledgeable, and capable. Wilbell even says that "ditzy people like her are scary."
183	* JackOfAllTrades: Has a very versatile skill set, being able to do AreaOfEffect heals and buffs, bomb a multitude of enemies with Bright Craft or Himmelschenk, or just use Exabomb to inflict massive damage on one enemy.
184	* TheMentor: Personally helps Shallistera synthesize the heart medicine for Nady. She and Escha also become role model figures for the Shallies.
185	* MissExposition: Provides an update to Shallistera on the state of Lugion Village at the start of Chapter 9, tells Wilbell and the Shallies about Faav Village’s legend of the goddess blessed by the Lord of Water, and also helps Keith exposit on the state of the world to the other party members.
186	** Played for comedic effect when Shallotte asks her what Wilbell was like as a teenager, which prompts Wilbell to take Shallotte and run off before Ayesha can say anything that might embarrass her.
187	* OurFairiesAreDifferent: Escha and Shallistera immediately liken her a fairy, the first time they see her.
188	* SeekerArchetype: Comes with the territory of becoming Keithgriff's apprentice, although she's much friendlier and more willing to play a mentor role to the younger alchemists.
189	* SheIsAllGrownUp: At 27, she would be the oldest returning protagonist in the franchise until ''Lulua'' was released in 2019.
190	* SummonMagic: Summons Yggdrasil, the FinalBoss of her home game, for her ultimate move.

200	* CoolOldGuy: He's among the oldest of the group, but happens to be among the wisest and reasonable.
201	* CrackOhMyBack: In the introduction this happens to him. It's noted he's not getting any younger and the strain is hard on his back.
202	* TheDriver: Of the Sand Ship.
203	* GogglesDoNothing: He wears goggles, but never uses them.
204
205	!! Gerard Perriend
206	----
207	The chairman of the Corporation that owns Stellard's water supply.
208
209	* PetTheDog: Goes out of his way to try to find a cure for Nady's illness. He also treats Shallotte well, giving her advice and inviting her to tea.
210	* ToughLove: In comparison to the way he treats Shallotte, he's much harsher towards Shallistera, but Linca assures him that he's actually rooting for her.
211	* UndyingLoyalty: Towards Stellard. He'd do anything to keep it and its people safe.
212	* WellIntentionedExtremist: His number one priority is ensuring that Stellard remains a prosperous town with plentiful water, and he is willing to do morally questionable things such as using Stera as bait for a Sand Dragon or [[spoiler:refuse to turn off the Water Control Device that is draining the continent's water supply]] to attain this goal. This is due to the fact that [[spoiler:prior to the foundation of Stellard, the area was a brutal wasteland where the strong trampled the weak to survive]]. Although he DOES reluctantly relent on the [[spoiler:Water Control Device]] after explaining his position.
213
214	!! Albert Perriend
215	The son of Gerard.
216	----
217	* AllLoveIsUnrequited: Odelia doesn't care much for him.
218	* AffectionateNickname: Shallotte calls him "Al".
219	* ChildhoodFriends: With Miruca and Shallotte.
220	* CollectorOfTheStrange: Collects automatons, and at one point gives you a sidequest where you can bring him automatons you find in exchange for rewards. This becomes a ChekhovsGun when [[spoiler:it turns out that the automatons are the key to opening the Ruins of Frozen Time and accessing Geofront]].
221	* LoveAtFirstSight: With Odelia.
222	* RichInDollarsPoorInSense: Will spend ridiculous amounts of money on automatons.
223	* RoboSexual: He's in love with Odelia.
224
225	!! Raoul Pireit
226	Leader of the Cooperative Union.
227	----
228	* AllLoveIsUnrequited: Tries and fails to confess to [[spoiler:Linca]], largely because she's ObliviousToLove.
229	* BrokenPedestal: Kortes used to admire him when he was a treasure hunter, but now sees him as a lousy politican.
230	* IDidWhatIHadToDo: He'll do whatever he can to help the town, whether it be partnering with Central or taking advantage of other people's weaknesses and admits it.
231	** That said, even he found having Shallistera used as bait against the Sand Dragon distasteful enough that he couldn't bring himself to lie on it.
232	* LetNoCrisisGoToWaste: The Sand Ship crashing into the town was unavoidable considering the circumstances, but he still took the chance to get the princess working for their goal.
233	* OpportunisticBastard: He jumps on these, taking advantage of both Shallies when they need help.
234	* QuestGiver: For the union.
235	* TheScrooge: Shallie accuses him of being one. Considering that he pays her a mere 5 cole for cleaning trash and threatens to give someone else the job when she complains, she's not wrong.
236
237
238	!! Nady Elminus
239	----
240	* AmazinglyEmbarrassingParents: Dotes on her daughter Shallotte just a little too much... to the point where she'll tell complete strangers about embarrassing moments in her childhood.
241	* MotherlySidePlait: Yep. And guess what nearly happens as a result.
242
243	!!Linca
244	Another one of the Linca sisters of the Dusk series (the seventh, in fact). Unlike the others, she doesn't fight and excels at paperwork.
245	----
246	* ArtificialHuman: The truth of the Lincas' origins are revealed in this game: [[spoiler:the original Linca is not just a Controller who manages the water intake facility which converts sea water to fresh water for residents of Stellard, Lugion and beyond, but an artificial lifeform created expressly for this purpose. When the supply began to malfunction, the facility generated the Lincas. At some point, they were found and brought back to the surface.]]
247	* HappilyAdopted: [[spoiler: Confirms that Gerard more or less adopted her by taking her in.]]
248
249	!! Rosemia
250
251	A collector and old friend of Homura.
252	----
253
254	* GothGirlsKnowMagic: Wears goth-like clothes, and [[spoiler:used to be a witch, although she hasn't used her magic in a long time to the point where it began to disappear.]]
255	* TheLostLenore: [[spoiler:She lost her lover, a sailor, centuries ago. That became the catalyst for why she abandoned her magic and became a collector.]]
256	* NightmareFetishist: She is quite happy with her job: looking for adventurers who died in the Dusk Sea, burying them, and bringing back their possessions.
257	* OlderThanTheyLook: [[spoiler:She is actually a centuries-old witch.]]
258	* RobbingTheDead: Technically, yes. She brings back with her the possessions of the dead.
259
260	!! Katla Larchica
261
262	A 18-year-old peddler who claims to be selling rare and interesting things. She serves as your ingredients supplier.
263	----
264	* EmbarrassingRescue: How she views being saved by Rosemia when she was lost out in the Dusk Sea, considering she's a rival merchant.
265	* FallenOnHardTimesJob: As in the last game, she plays this up by adding on she has brothers and sisters to take care of to guilt the Shallies.
266	* SheIsAllGrownUp: In the previous game she was 12 and small, but the years have been kind to her.
267	----
