3!!The Player (default name: Sabrina)
4[[quoteright:188:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/princess_counter.jpg]]
5
6Sabrina is an OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent until her AlternateSelf bursts through her wardrobe and claims to be a princess escaping the Ball at St. Lyon's, as she absolutely hates dancing. So, naturally, the two of you trade places for a month and you're suddenly surrounded by a CastFullOfPrettyBoys, who just ''happen'' to be the alternate selves of some boys in your school...
7
8%%* AndYourRewardIsClothes
9%%* AudienceSurrogate
10%%* BigEater: Several of her responses involve food.
11* ButThouMust: There's no way you can refuse Princess Sabrina's offer of trading places with her.
12%%* CuteWitch: The Witch's Hat transforms your dress into this outfit.
13%%* ErmineCapeEffect: The gold necklace.
14%%* CurtainsMatchTheWindow: To differentiate her from Princess Sabrina.
15%%* DudeMagnet: Interestingly, most of the time you don't have to try very hard to achieve this.
16* HelloInsertNameHere: You can choose any name you want, with the default being Sabrina
17%%* {{Joshikousei}}: Her regular outfit. The Flower Hairpin, too.
18%%%%* NiceGirl
19%%* NoblewomansLaugh: The "proper" response when you are asked if you are the princess.
20%%* OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent: At the beginning.
21%%* ThePollyanna
22* PrincessesPreferPink: Your default dress is pink, and so are some of the alternate dresses.
23* SelfDeprecation: Believes herself to be out of Kyle's league in the beginning.
24* {{Tsundere}}: Can be one depending on choices the player picks.
25%%* VirtualPaperDoll
26
27!!The Princess (default name: Sabrina)
28[[quoteright:247:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/princess_5.jpg]]
29
30A RebelliousPrincess of the Flower Kingdom who loathes the idea of training for the Ball at St. Lyon's, Sabrina begs you to trade places with her for exactly a month before it's over.
31
32* AlternateSelf: To the protagonist - she's a princess in this case.
33* BookDumb: Got a zero on one of her tests.
34* IdenticalTwinIDTag: Her eyes are green instead of brown like regular Sabrina.
35* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Her throwing Sabrina into a fish-out-of-water-situation, obviously. Then the princess almost gets Sabrina permanently barred from dancing by showing up and revealing who is who. She manages to fix that mistake, though.
36* PleaseSpareHimMyLiege: When your secret is found out and you are barred from dancing with your partner ever again, it's the princess who appeals to the king to convince him to overturn his decision.
37* RebelliousPrincess
38* TheRunaway: And running away from ''dancing'' at that, although that's explained by the fact that she hates her dancing lessons and is apparently not too good at them, and because she wasn't given a choice about it.
39* TransformationTrinket: Her tiara. Most accessories, actually.
40* TwinSwitch: Or Interdimensional Alternate Self Switch, whichever.
41
42!!Kip Hamoon Stallon the 777th
43[[quoteright:142:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kip_hamoon_stallon_the_777th.jpg]]
44
45Your royal adviser who does often try to tutor you, but often fails.
46
47%%* FairyCompanion
48* MrExposition: He fills Sabrina in on important events during the story.
49* KingBobTheNth: Not royalty, but still. '''777'''!
50* TalkingAnimal: Justified, as this is totally normal in the Flower Kingdom.
51%%* NonHumanSidekick
52
53!!Tony
54[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tony_0.jpg]]
55[[caption-width-right:250:[[labelnote:Click here for spoilers]][[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/princess_debut_tony.png]][[/labelnote]]]]
56
57Normally a short humanoid rabbit, he can use magic to grow to the size of a prince. He's actually one of the best dancers in the kingdom, and serves as your teacher. He also has some sort of secret...
58
59* ForcedTransformation: His rabbit form is the result of a curse put on him by a witch. If you dance with him at the ball as a result of rejecting all other potential partners, the curse is lifted and he becomes human once again.
60* HalfDressedCartoonAnimal: He wears a spiffy top hat and waistcoat, yet no pants or shoes.
61* TheMentor: Serves as your dance instructor.
62* RedEyesTakeWarning: Subverted, he's an extremely nice guy.
63%%* WaistcoatOfStyle
64
65!The Princes
66!!Cesar Dubois
67[[quoteright:180:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/cesar.jpg]]
68
69One of the princes, who seems to be shallow and womanizing, but naturally there's more to him than meets the eye. He's also pretty romantic, and he will stay faithful to you anyhow.
70
71* AlternateSelf: His alternate self is a ChickMagnet classmate of Sabrina's named Carlos.
72%%* TheCasanova
73%%* ChickMagnet
74* HiddenDepths: Despite flirting with everything that moves, he ''does'', surprisingly, have limits. If you respond to his joke about being his ruler by asking him to bow before you, he refuses on the grounds that he doesn't like the idea of bowing to his lady. Also, like the other partners, Cesar stands up for you when you're revealed to be a replacement for the princess.
75* KidAnova: Constantly flirting with girls, and a teenager at oldest.
76
77!!Kiefer Bergmann
78[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kiefer.png]]
79
80The sixth prince, he'll only show up after you beat the game once. Like Luciano, he's fairly hard to get as a partner, but unlike Luciano, this is due to his complete disinterest in dancing. He'll warm up with a little encouragement from you.
81
82* AlternateSelf: His counterpart in the real world is Sabrina's bookish classmate Keith.
83* DefrostingIceQueen: With the right choices, he'll gradually gain interest in the player and dancing.
84%%* FriendToAllLivingThings
85* NewGamePlus: You can only pursue him after you've beaten the game once.
86%%* TheQuietOne
87%%* StoicSpectacles
88* SugarAndIcePersonality: Initially appears very aloof, but is a really nice guy once you get to know him.
89
90!!Klaus Rosencrans
91[[quoteright:214:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/klaus.jpg]]
92
93The most popular prince in the game, Klaus embodies PrinceCharming through and through. In fact, he's the only prince to start the game with a partner other than you, as well as his personal InstantFanClub that follows him everywhere.
94
95%%* TheAce
96* AlternateSelf: Resident BigManOnCampus and star athlete Kyle.
97* ChickMagnet: Has fans that fawn all over him.
98%%* InstantFanClub
99%%* NiceGuy: So much.
100%%* PrinceCharming: The straightest example of this trope in this entire game.
101* VictoriousChildhoodFriend: To the princess, actually, if you beat the game with him. You have to set off a specific chain of events involving the emerald necklace in your bedroom to find this out.
102
103!!Liam Goodrich
104[[quoteright:188:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/liam_2.jpg]]
105
106Liam loves his sister very much. And by "very much," we really do mean [[BrotherSisterIncest very much]]. But other than that, he's pretty much the ideal dance partner - unfailingly polite, perpetually smiling, and always there for dance practice.
107
108* AlternateSelf: His alternate self is Sabrina's kind classmate Leon.
109* BrotherSisterIncest: Subverted. He never actually does anything incestuous, and if you romance him he clarifies that you ''don't'' really look like his sister upon closer examination, so he's in love with you for real.
110* CurtainsMatchTheWindow: He has green eyes and green hair, and he's very fond of plant.
111%%* NiceGuy: It's in his ''name''.
112* RealMenWearPink: He loves gardening.
113* ReplacementGoldfish: He tells you you remind him of his sister Olive. If you beat the game with him, he'll tell you you don't look like her after all.
114
115!!Luciano Barbosa
116[[quoteright:168:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/luciano.jpg]]
117
118One of the best dancers in the entire game with an attitude to match, Luciano is one of the hardest partners to snag (as he won't even ''look'' at you until you push yourself to superhuman levels). But as mentioned, he's one of the best.
119
120* AlternateSelf: Your character's childhood friend Lucas.
121* ArrogantKungFuGuy: Acts like this at first, and he ''is'' renowned as an extremely talented dancer.
122* [[DefrostingIceQueen Defrosting Ice King]]
123* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Somewhat.
124* NoSenseOfDirection: Very, very badly. He refuses to acknowledge this, though. Catherine thinks this is endearing.
125* PutOnABus: Whether you like it or not, he will leave halfway through the game to join the World Dance Competition, and to get him back you have to set off a very specific chain of events.
126** TheBusCameBack: In certain cases. It requires a ''lot'' of patience.
127* {{Tsundere}}: A pretty obvious Type A - he's extremely grouchy and unfriendly until he warms up to you.
128* VictoriousChildhoodFriend: If the player beats the game with him and declines his offer to marry him, his Earth counterpart Lucas is this.
129
130!!Vincent Wright
131[[quoteright:192:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/vince.jpg]]
132
133Goes by "Vince". The youngest dance partner in the game, who's a pretty nice kid but can be quite the jerk. He loves to play pranks on people, and often doesn't show up to practice.
134
135* AlternateSelf: Sabrina's classmate and resident class clown Victor.
136* AdorablyPrecociousChild
137* HiddenDepths: He may not act like it, but there's more to him than prankster-dom. For example, when the kingdom eventually discovers that you're not really the princess, Vince sticks up for you like any of the other partners would.
138* IdiotHair
139* JerkWithAHeartOfGold
140* MeaningfulName: In the Japanese version, his name is Kid.
141* OlderThanTheyLook: That kid most definitely does not look fourteen.
142%%* TokenMiniMoe
143* ThePrankster: Extremely fond of pranking.
144
145
146!Others
147
148!!Isabel
149[[quoteright:137:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/isabel_8.png]]
150
151A girl from the Flower Kingdom who has a reputation for being a liar and a troublemaker.
152
153%%* BadLiar
154* CassandraTruth: During the second dance competition, she discovers Sabrina's secret and tries to tell everyone... but they don't believe her at all.
155%%* CharacterDevelopment: Thanks to the main character.
156%%* DefeatMeansFriendship
157%%* FieryRedhead
158* GirlishPigtails: Although she's not ''that'' girly.
159* GreenEyedMonster: Which eventually motivates her to discover your secret and then reveal it to everyone...which doesn't work, since no one believes her.
160%%* IJustWantToHaveFriends
161%%* {{Jerkass}}
162%%* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: You can change her into this.
163
164
165!!Princess Cynthia
166[[quoteright:184:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/cynthia_1.jpg]]
167
168Klaus's dance partner at the beginning, who is a kind and gentle soul.
169

173%%* SatelliteCharacter

191
192The honorable king of the Flower Kingdom and Sabrina's father. Stern yet kind.
193
194%%* ReasonableAuthorityFigure

198
199Your friend from school.
200
201* MsExposition: Her commentary on the guys in your class in the beginning of the game provides for some useful exposition.
202
203
204!!Olive Goodrich
205[[quoteright:161:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/olive_goodrich.jpg]]

212Vince's "friend," who doesn't exactly fit the poster nice guy bill.
213
214%%* {{Jerkass}}
