126
127	-->'''Skill''': Circlecron
128	-->'''Weakness''': [[spoiler: Bound Ring]]
129
130	Sola is the daughter of a foreign aristocrat. She is found at the Chelsea School of Magic's Dormitory.
131	----
132	* DeathFromAbove: Both of Sola's initial attacks. In the first, she tosses a bunch of tiny projectiles that turn into stars that fall to the ground; in the second, she flies into the air and rains down missiles.
133	* HomingProjectile: In addition to the attack mentioned above, one of her desperation attacks generate small crystals that track the player for a split-second then disappear.
134	* IdiotHair: She has a large ''ahoge'' standing atop her head.
135	* LogicalWeakness: Insomuch as it's logical from the standpoint of countering Sola's primary means of dealing damage. All Sola does besides attacking is jump, and [[spoiler: the bound ring]] is specifically made to be an anti-air weapon. Furthermore, it even breaks through the projectiles Sola sends out while airborne.
136	* ReverseShrapnel: At red health, Sola summons Circlecron, which creates several orbs that rotate around her. Evading this attack requires the player to position themselves between the the orbs. After spawning 7 layers of orbs, she releases them, going in random directions and bouncing off a surface once before disappearing when touching another or going off screen.
137	* SpellMyNameWithAnS: [[InconsistentDub Is called both]] [[JapaneseRanguage Sola and Sora]] in her Battle Intro. Interestingly, Sola is indeed the official romanization.

144	[[caption-width-right:350:[[labelnote:Click here to see her in the remake]]https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/dw1r_stoj.png[[/labelnote]]]]
145
146	-->'''Skill''': Upper Tornado
147	-->'''Weakness''': [[spoiler: Ground Impact]]
148
149	A curious Fae from the Belfer Islands. She is said to be very talkative.
150	----
151	* BlowYouAway: She summons tiny tornadoes for her attacks.
152	* EnemySummoner: She summons small fairies to attack the player.
153	* {{Expy}}: She bears a good resemblance to Daiyousei from ''Franchise/TouhouProject''. Inside System has developed ''Touhou'' DoujinSoft, so it is perhaps unsurprising that they manage to slip in an Expy.
154	* FantasticRacism: Fae and humans apparently don't get along. Stoj doesn't act aggressive towards Zizou at first, but when the later asks about the Syega crystals, Stoj immediately jumps to the conclusion that Zizou is blaming her people and they fight.
155	* IdiotHair: She has a large ''ahoge'' standing atop her head.
156	* OurFairiesAreDifferent: Stoj is a small fairy that looks like a girl with long green hair and wings.
157	* VagueAge: She has the appearance of a young girl, but is implied to be [[OlderThanTheyLook much older than she lets on]] due to being a fairy. Although, the game never clues us in on her actual age.
158	* WingedHumanoid: She has fairy wings on her back.

166
167	-->'''Weakness''': [[spoiler: Dia Missile]]
168
169	Commander of Rasil's Royal Army. Verri is the boss of the Forest of Dreams, the game's seventh stage. She attempts to stop Zizou Olympia from entering the Deep Remains.
170	----
171	* {{BFS}}: The power of Syega allows Verri to wield it effortlessly.
172	* FlashStep: Similar to Papelne's dash attack, only Verri actually disappears while moving.
173	* RedEyesTakeWarning: She's a game boss with red eyes.
174	* RollingAttack: An aerial, gravity-defying variation.
175	* SwordBeam: She [[BlowYouAway fires a tornado]] at the player with her sword.
176	* UndyingLoyalty: She's fiercely loyal to Princess Riva.

184
185	-->'''Skills''': Cobalt Fire, Sword Rain
186	-->'''Weakness''': [[spoiler: None]]
187
188	Princess of Rasil. Riva steals all of the Syega in the Old Islands in hopes of weakening the nation.
189	----
190	* AwesomeButImpractical: Everything about her as a playable character. Her Cobalt Fire starts off with about a character's length of range, her Sword Rain has very glaring gaps and tends to get caught on platforms above her head, her dash is very hard to control in most instances, and her last slot [[PowerupLetdown merely allows you to temporarily use her full power attacks without charging]].
191	* BigBad: Riva is the main antagonist of Zizou's story. She's responsible for the missing Syega.
192	* ChargedAttack: Her weapons can be charged to increase their size.
193	* DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu: Goes toe-to-toe with [[spoiler:Zizou, a PhysicalGod]], in her story.
194	* EnergyBall: A fully-charged Cobalt Fire tends to be this.
195	* FinalBoss: In Zizou's story, Riva is fought at the Deep Remains, after defeating copies of the first six bosses.
196	* FlashStep: Her second slot is Dash, which allows her to very quickly cross the screen.
197	* IdiotHair: She has a large ''ahoge'' standing atop her head.
198	* KingIncognito: She's a princess, but disguises herself as a minstrel to travel around the Old Islands.
199	* MagicalFloatingShawl: Riva wears a hagoromo as part of her minstrel disguise, even though she isn't really a godly figure (unlike our protagonist Zizou, who ''is'' a god, but doesn't wear one). [[spoiler:When she takes on her OneWingedAngel form at the end, she ends up losing her hagoromo in the process.]]
200	* OneWingedAngel: One she's defeated, she absorbs all the Syega she found and becomes Unbound Riva.
201	* PyrrhicVictory: [[spoiler: While she wins against Zizou, she winds up getting blackmailing into keeping quiet about her role in the story.]]
202	* RedEyesTakeWarning: She has red eyes and is the BigBad of the game.
203	* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: She stole the Syega to help her father, the King of Rasil, win a war.
204	* ThrowingYourSwordAlwaysWorks: In a sense. Sword Rain summons blades that rain down on her enemies.
205	* VillainousPrincess: Riva is a selfish, ill-mannered princess. She wants to make her father's kingdom the strongest in the world, and attempts to do so by using the Syega taken from the Old Islands and eliminating anyone who stands in her way.
206	* VillainProtagonist: Her story involves her beating up the other bosses and [[spoiler: eventually Zizou as well.]]
