30	--> ''"The so-called fashion is just a trend that is controlled by a small number of people who have the power to speak."''
31
32	Acting Speaker of the Assembly and the Chamber of Commerce’s Chairman. Her parents were assassinated when she was 15, so she became the heir of the family businesses, and did her best to climb up the ranks of power. Many people want her to die, including business rivals, ambitious relatives coveting her family property, and the nobles against the Assembly. She just keeps her elegance and patience in fighting back and even tries to lure out the one who killed her parents...

54
55	--> ''"All of us joined the Guardsmen because we swear to protect Finsel…"''
56
57	Hero of the previous game, a civilian soldier who recently distinguished himself in battle and was thrust into the spotlight. The guardsmen call him a reliable captain, strict supervisor, and a good friend. Meanwhile, he also has other labels such as poor civil servant, beloved little brother and ordinary boy with little knowledge of romantic relationships. His most notable trait is his sense of justice — but he is not sure if he can consider it a good trait.

67	----
68	* BadassAdorable: He’s so cute that one would just want to cuddle him all day, but let’s not forget he’s also a well-respected military captain who ''will'' kick asses if he desires.
69	* BlueIsHeroic: He dresses in the blue uniform of the City Guards, and is all-in-all a good person.
70	* ClothingDamage: His "Warrior Alan" set has him absolutely torn up, offering a nice view of his chest and upper left thigh.
71	* EndearinglyDorky: Despite being a hero, he is a clumsy and rather awkward boy, sneaking dessert at a ball for his pet "pig", knowing very little about romantic relationships and often blushing upon seeing Magda. Eliza even lampshades this in Mom's Opinion.
72	-->''"You cannot love him no matter how cute he is! No, no, no, even if he is very cute in uniform shorts, or he blushes upon seeing you, the answer is still no!"''[[note]]He can still fall in love with you, anyway.[[/note]]
73	* FamedInStory: He is known in the story as a hero and was thrust into the spotlight because of that.
74	* FamousAncestor: Discussed. In Season 2, Gaelan claims that Alan is a descendant of Lionheart's High Knight, one of the most prestigious ranks in the Kingdom, in an attempt to sow discord between the civilians and nobles; to which Alan vehemently denies. However, Barbalius confirmed that the High Knight, which was thought to be a legend, had left Lionheart and proposes the theory that they may have chosen to settle in Finsel, thus Gaelan's claims cannot be outright denied. Additionally, it can be confirmed if Alan and the High Knight are indeed related by researching more about the topic.
75	* HeroOfAnotherStory: He’s the protagonist of ''Helix Horizon'', a now-closed male-oriented collectible hero ARPG.
76	* TheNeedsOfTheMany: When Tilla Jorcastle was under the control of black powder in Helix Horizon, Grand Duke Bavlenka gave Alan two choices: save Tilla, or save "everyone else"; to which Alan chose the latter. [[MommasBoy Gonzalo]] wasn’t exactly pleased, to say the least.
77	* NiceGuy: He’s an incredibly nice and pleasant addition to the nasty world of scheming nobles.
78	* ObliviousToLove: Seems to be unaware that Gonzalo holds some affection for him and also Florna’s crush on him, though for the latter there’s a chance he knows but chooses to ignore her.

83
84	A formerly noble knight whose family was cast out because of his father's alcohol abuse, which in turn costed the latter’s life.

94	----
95	* AlcoholicParent: The reason for his family's disgrace.
96	* AmbiguouslyBi: Blushes and compliments Starr's makeup when they're first introduced to each other, but he’s still a romanceable character.
97	* CommonalityConnection: He and Magda can bond because they share the same goal: taking back the honor that once belonged to their family step by step.
98	* FamedInStory: After his successive victory in the knights dance battle in his Favor Quest, many nobles want to win him over. He eventually settles for the Ellestein.

109
110	The most experienced mage of the Spiral Spire who has been possessed by an evil spirit calling itself "Black Shadow" for 7-8 years, and they hated each other guts. He used to be an orphan in the slum, but he later entered the Spiral Spire to study magic.

118	-->'''Political Stance''': Conservatism
119	----
120	* AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther: Despite how they act towards each other daily, Black Shadow is seen to be quite protective of Xavier; notably when the Seasonal Goddesses in the Snow Festival Event fight for Xavier as they want him as a "sacrifice" since he is a "pretty boy". Black Shadow then appears and stops the fight, vaguely threatening them if they dared take him away from Black Shadow. The Goddesses back down in the end, leaving Xavier alone.
121	* CovertPervert: He's very attracted to Magda, but keeps his thoughts and desires to himself. Unfortunately for him, Black Shadow has no filter or loyalty to him and takes great delight in exposing his fantasies.
122	* CurtainsMatchTheWindow: His hair and eyes have the same orangish shade.
123	* DemonicPossession: Xavier's body has been host to the demon king Black Shadow for seven or eight years. Unusually for this trope, Xavier has full control over his body, even being able to mute Black Shadow on occasion, and Black Shadow manifests externally as a humanoid head hovering over his shoulder.
124	* LongHairedPrettyBoy: His orange hair goes past his hips, and is quite [[MessyHair disheveled]].
125	* RandomNumberGod: In a way. A gacha system in this game involves obtaining clothing, materials and some other stuffs through a jeweled egg (think the Fabergé eggs), and according to him, he's the one that decides what's in there.
126	* RagsToRiches: He used to be an orphan in the slum, but is now a very well-respected and powerful mage in the Spiral Spire with fame among the noble ladies.
127	* RenaissanceMan: Aside from being a powerful mage, Xavier is also a painter, sculptor and an author who wrote the (in-universe) popular romance novel ''Romantic Mage and Lovely Young Lady''.

131
132	--> ''"Hmm… Should I put on one more necklace?"''

146	* GoodFeelsGood: When she gives donations to Cleric Pan, she mentions in a letter afterwards that she, along with her father and servants, feels quite happy.
147	* ImpossiblyTackyClothes: Her sense of fashion involves pilling as many expensive materials, designs and items on each other as possible, ignoring everything about moderation and aesthetics.
148	* NouveauRiche: Maggie's father was a fisherman until he bought his way into a noble title. He's pushing Maggie to break into the social circles of Finsel's nobility, but unfortunately neither of them know much about the rules of etiquette and Maggie is largely snubbed by the nobility. It doesn't help that her sense of fashion consists mostly of [[ImpossiblyTackyClothes piling on as much expensive decoration as possible]].
149	* RoseHairedSweetie: Coral, but still. Despite her lack of proper manner, she’s genuinely a nice person who has the desire to improve herself when Magda offers to give her guidance.
150	* SheCleansUpNicely: Maggie’s poor fashion sense more than often makes her a laughing stock among nobles, but when Magda picks out a more pleasing attire for her to wear to a ball, she’s noted to cut a fine figure.
151

153
154	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/adff5267_9a44_46dc_bd0e_d8b425f2cffd.png]]
155
156	A carefree, casual servant-for-hire who treats his job with disdain, stealing from employers. Thanks to his pretty face, he can easily get a decent position in Finsel's noble circle but doesn't seem capable of holding it long.
157
158	-->'''Chinese Name''': Yiwan (Chinese transliteration of Ivan)

165	-->'''Political Stance''': Rebel
166	----
167	* JustifiedCriminal: He frequently steals from his employers in order to support himself and raise his sister’s children, which gets him in hot water twice under Magda’s watch.
168	* OnlyOneName: Since he is a civilian, he only has one first name.

181
182	The stern, quiet, and respectable priest of the Sky Church in Finsel, he keeps out of political struggles, believing that the power of the Goddess should be used to help the weak, rather than to assist the strong. People in Finsel are not as religious as elsewhere, so he used to have problems making ends meet in the renovation of the church, but lately he received some large amount of anonymous donations...

202
203	A low-rank priestess in the Finsel Parish of the Sky Church, she can usually be found in the healing hall nursing the sick.

292	--> ''"Lady Ellenstein, do you have any fashion news to share?"''
293
294	A voracious gossip and powerful source of intel, Kelly is the most unwelcome and a must role in Rayorcan society.

311	* TheHunterBecomesTheHunted: In Part 2 of her Favor Quest, when the rumor she has a crush on Alminas spreads like wildfire, for the first time in her life the mass gossiper that is Kelly becomes the focus of gossip herself.
312	* KnowledgeBroker: As long as one can afford the price, she is a powerful source of intelligence on the area and anyone in it.

544
545	* AmbiguouslyHuman: He implies that he is neither mortal nor human.
546	* MysticalWhiteHair: He has long white hair and is very mysterious. There's definitely something paranormal about him, given that he's the owner of the magical box which transports Magda into the illusion of Mandaria, and he has the ability to step into various minor roles as Magda lives out the story.

553	* HiddenDepths: He's unexpectedly adept at medicine despite his age and position, and personally makes medical compounds for Magda several times during his favour storyline.
554	* PrincelingRivalry: [[DiscussedTrope Discussed]] with Magda late in his favour storyline—unlike his father selecting him in secret and leaving him unprepared when the news broke, he intends to announce his heir and prepare him for rule from the beginning, saying he trusts [[spoiler:Magda (as the intended mother of his future heir) to help protect their son from this trope]].
555	* ScheherezadeGambit: After offending him on the first night she is summoned to his chambers, Magda manages to both avoid his wrath and hold his interest by telling him stories about Finsel.
556	* UnexpectedSuccessor: His father chose him as his heir despite Yun Zhe being one of the youngest Princes, but kept it a secret to be announced only after his death.
557
558	!!Yun Guo
559	The Princess of Cheng and Yun Zhe's older half-sister.
560
561	* RebelliousPrincess: Sneaks out of the palace to visit the market in the city, gripes when court officials prevent her from riding out to hunt, and is clearly fed up with most things about life within the palace.
562	%%* RoyalBrat
563	* {{Tsundere}}: In the classic style, she's short-tempered and quick to contradict herself, taking a combative attitude most of the time but softening towards Magda-as-Consort-Chu if Magda takes the time to get to know her.
564
565	!!Zhao Lang
566	The devious Prime Minister of Cheng.
567
568	* AppropriatedAppellation: He's known as "the Serpent" for his deviousness and feared by much of the court, but doesn't seem to mind and embraces the moniker. He explains to Magda that someone has to be able to do what he does, and he's good at it, so he might as well enjoy his work.
569	* TheChessmaster: As Prime Minister, he does a lot of political wrangling and manipulation behind the scenes in the name of benefiting the Empire.
570
571	!!Zhou Heqi
572	The Grand Mentor favoured by the late Emperor and entrusted with the education of Yun Zhe.
573
574	* TheGoodChancellor: Has the people's wellbeing at heart, leading him to [[spoiler:go behind Yun Zhe's back to aid flood victims while Yun Zhe remains undecided]]. It doesn't end well for him.
575	%%* HonestAdvisor
576	* RedBaron: He's known as the "Thousand-Paged Book" for the breadth of his knowledge.
577
578	!!An Hu
579	The young head of the Imperial guards.
580
581	* TheAce: His battlefield skills are unmatched; at the beginning of the story, he's being honoured for taking the initiative to quell a rebellion, and he's noted to be an expert with sword and bow.
582	* DeathFakedForYou: His good ending has him [[spoiler:saving Magda from her [[AssassinationAttempt burning palace]] and giving her the option of letting her death be announced and eloping with him to the country border where he's been permanently assigned.]]
583	* TheLadysFavor: Magda lends him a handkerchief to wipe his face, and he's later revealed to have been carrying it with him as a keepsake in the spirit of this trope.
584	* NoSocialSkills: For all his martial talents, the poor guy is hopelessly awkward when it comes to interacting with people. Magda and Ba Qi both remark several times on how inept he is—usually because he's blurted out what's on his mind and run off before Magda can respond.
585	* SamuraiPonytail: His hair is pulled back into an action-ready high ponytail denoting his status as a soldier, in contrast to the more free-flowing styles worn by the other major male characters.
586	* TallPoppySyndrome: His accomplishments are met by hostility from those around him, either out of the assumption that he's chasing personal glory or simply out of envy at the recognition he receives. All he really wants is to help people, but the backlash causes him to doubt himself, and much of his favour storyline involves Magda persuading him to act on his principles without worrying so much about what other people think.
587	* YouMustBeCold: He chases after Magda to lend her his cloak because he heard that she'd been sick recently.
588
589	!!Asaro
590	A flirtatious envoy and prince from Bello.
591
592	* TheCharmer: In the same vein as Juven, to the point where Magda rarely rises to his flirtations because she's heard it all before.
593
594	!!Consort Ju
595	A high ranking harem member and the daughter of the Grand Secretary.
596
597	* AlphaBitch: She's one of the most prominent consorts and constantly aggressive towards all of the other ladies, including Consort Chu. Her profile states outright that it's impossible to be anything but enemies with her.
598	* DancingRoyalty: Her main appeal lies in her beautiful dance performances.
599	* LadyInRed: She dresses all in red, highlighting her status as the AlphaBitch of the Imperial harem.
600
601	!!Consort Liu
602	A high ranking harem member and the daughter of the Minister of Rites.
603
604	* BitchInSheepsClothing: Compared to Consort Ju, she seems gentle and caring, but she's no less motivated to undermine the other consorts in their competition for the Emperor's favour—she's just much subtler and more manipulative about it, and on several occasions makes apparently kind gestures that are actually setting Magda up for trouble. Like Consort Ju, her profile makes it clear that Magda can't actually make friends with her.
605
606	!!Ba Qi
607	Consort Chu's outspoken little maidservant.
608
609	* ChildhoodFriends: With her mistress Chu Wanti, whose body Magda inhabits while using the Box.
610	* DrivenToSuicide: Her fate in any ending where Chu Wanti dies.
611	* GirlishPigtails: Her hair is styled into twin buns decorated with bells, indicating her youth.
612	* UndyingLoyalty: To Chu Wanti, accompanying her wherever she goes and following her out of the palace to a less luxurious life if the player chooses such a route.
613	* YouTalkTooMuch: Magda often tells her this, as Ba Qi tends to repeat gossip, complain about the other consorts' mistreatment of Magda, and generally speak her mind no matter how high-ranking the listener or how detrimental it would be to her mistress.
