| 12 | The main setting of ''Cold Steel III'', Thors Branch Campus is, at its name implies, a branch of Thors Military Academy founded by Prince Olivert and located in Leeves, just west of the capital city of Heimdallr. It was created after the civil war with the intention of accepting students from the new provinces, as well as drop-outs from other schools. |
| 13 | |
| 14 | It is headed by former Noble Alliance commander Aurelia Le Guin, whilst Michael Irving of the Railway Military Police serves as Chief Instructor. Professor G. Schmidt also serves as a special advisor. As the main campus's Class VII was replaced with a traditional Class VI, it features a new Class VII, tasked with Special Operations and taught by Rean Schwarzer, Class VIII, tasked with Combat Tactics and taught by Randolph "Randy" Orlando, and Class IX, tasked with Military Finance and taught by Towa Herschel. |
| 15 | |
| 16 | For tropes pertaining to Class VII, see [[Characters/TrailsSeriesEreboniaThorsClassVIINew here]]. |

| 18 | '''Warning: spoilers relating to events/reveals that happen during the first two ''Cold Steel'' games shall be left unmarked.''' Certain spoilers relating to the third and fourth games, however, shall remain tagged. |
| 19 | |
| 20 | ----- |
| 21 | |
| 22 | !Thors Branch Campus as a whole: |
| 23 | * BigDamnHeroes: In ''Reverie'', [[spoiler:both Main and Branch Campus are the first to arrive in Crossbell to assist the Crossbell police in distracting the Retributive Tower’s army of soldats.]] |
| 24 | * BlueIsHeroic: In contrast to students from Thors Main Campus, which now have black and red as the uniform's general color scheme, the students of Branch instead wear two shades of blue. |
| 25 | * ChildSoldiers: While the Main Campus students of Rean's batch were also trained to potentially serve as members of the military, and even fought as volunteer crew members of the Courageous during the civil war, they were never outright regularly sent out on actual military missions the way the Branch Campus students are every month. Even the original Class VII, for all the major incidents they got involved in prior to the civil war, only did so because they happened to be at the right place at the right time. |
| 26 | * CoolTrain: The Derfflinger, which consists of six cars. |
| 27 | * FromZeroToHero: Despite being originally considered as little more than a trash school to put unwanted individuals, the Branch Campus earned itself a reputation solid enough to rival the Main Campus by the time of ''Reverie'', barely a year after it opened thanks to its field exercises and various showings before and in the wake of [[spoiler:the Great War.]] |
| 28 | * HumongousMecha: Part of their curriculum is learning how to pilot Panzer Soldats. By Chapter 3 of ''Cold Steel III'', the school comes to own three Drakkhen II, two Hector Mk.II, two Spiegel S (one belonging to Aurelia), and the Kestrel Beta. Chapter 4 also introduces the Goliath Noa which, thanks to no one else being able to handle it properly, becomes Altina's personal machine[[note]]though she only ever pilots it once during said same chapter[[/note]]. |
| 29 | * MilitaryAcademy: As the name implies. However, compared to the Main Campus which became increasingly militaristic following the graduation of Rean's batch, even removing free days and club activities from its curriculum, the Branch Campus maintains the classic traditions as per Aurelia's commands, maintaining its MildlyMilitary aesthetic. |
| 30 | * OnlyOneName: The majority of the students are only known by their first name. |
| 31 | * PinkGirlBlueBoy: Originally with the Panzer Soldats as boys piloted the Blue Drakkhen and girls piloted a Pink Drakkhen during training sessions. This later gets thrown out the window with the arrival of the Spiegel S, an additional Hector Mk.II, Kestrel Beta, and later the Goliath Noa. |
| 32 | * ReassignedToAntarctica: Most students who have enrolled at this academy are those who weren't able to enter the main branch - possibly because the higher-ups didn't want them on the same campus as the crown prince for a variety of reasons. Aurelia claims that it's the same for the teachers as well. However, some students like Kurt and Stark could have been in the main campus, but chose the branch campus for their own reasons. |
| 33 | * TheSquad: The Branch Campus as a whole fits like this, basically being a small platoon in number when counting both students and the staff members together. Invoked as well because one of the primary purposes of the Branch Campus is to basically act as counter-terrorist unit against threats to the Empire such as Ouroboros. |
| 34 | * UriahGambit: Towa fears that the government is sending the branch campus to fight against Ouroboros and jaegers knowing that it's a suicide mission. If the branch campus get slaughtered, that ruins Olivert's plans to maintain his influence. If the branch campus succeeds, that means the government doesn't have to divert as many resources to fighting Ouroboros and the jaegers. |

| 58 | |
| 59 | A trustworthy noble girl from the Nortia Province. She joins the tennis club with Juna and Louise and specializes in the Schleiden-style spearmanship. |
| 60 | ---- |
| 61 | * AloofDarkHairedGirl: She has long blue hair and is generally very composed. |
| 62 | * AmbiguouslyBi: On the one hand, she vouches for Kairi's cuteness during some girl talk about the boys on campus, and at the beginning of ''Cold Steel III'' Chapter 2, she says she's got her eye on Cedric. On the other hand, she later claims that Alisa is more beautiful than Angelica described; it's also implied she may have had "experience" with [[ReallyGetsAround Angelica]] in the past. |
| 63 | * BlueBlood: The Schleiden family is a pretty well-known noble family, with their spearmanship being almost as famous as the swordsmanship of the Vander and Arseid families. |
| 64 | * CantCatchUp: A side quest in ''Cold Steel III'' reveals that she has started feeling this way around Chapter 3, lamenting how she's still at beginner level even after three months of training while Kurt had been intermediate level since the start of the school year. After Rean spars with her, he gives some words of wisdom about not comparing herself to others and just focusing on improving herself regardless. Words that Jessica takes to heart. |
| 65 | * ExpyCoexistence: Like Laura, she's a young blue-haired noblewoman from a family renowned for their martial arts. In Jessica's case, her family is renowned for their spearmanship. Unlike Laura however, Jessica can be quite casual and is less prone to making mistakes when it comes to technology. |
| 66 | * FriendlyRivalry: She and Juna compete against each other in the tennis club, but remain close friends. |
| 67 | * PromotedToPlayable: Although it's just for a short moment, you actually get to control Jessica in sidequest against Rean. Fortunately enough for the players, he actually holds back a lot as Jessica doesn't have any S-Crafts, items, Brave Orders, or other tools that could be useful, save for her artes and crafts. He will still use artes on you, however. She's playable again in ''Cold Steel IV'' and she's linked up with Wayne who is also a case of this trope. [[spoiler:Rean makes her and Wayne fight against Laura and Duvalie who thankfully also hold back against them.]] |
| 68 | * RedOniBlueOni: She's the blue to Wayne's red due to her more refined fighting style and her crafts having ice properties. |

| 78 | ---- |
| 79 | * AcePilot: [[spoiler:She can pilot the Courageous II just fine even under heavy fire in ''Cold Steel IV''. She does have experience piloting ships when she was still part of the sea jaegers.]] |
| 80 | * AmbiguouslyBrown: Her skin is noticeably darker than the other students', but her being part of a different ethnicity is never brought up. |
| 81 | * AffectionateNickname: Juna and Maya call her "Leo-[[UsefulNotes/JapaneseSiblingTerminology nee]]" in the Japanese script |
| 82 | * CoolBigSis: She tries to be this to her fellow students, and Juna and Maya actually do seem to think of her as one, going by the Japanese script. |

| 96 | * BigEater: She can eat a lot of food, which can sometimes take Rean aback. |
| 97 | * ButNotTooForeign: Her mother was from Calvard and was of [[{{Wutai}} Eastern descent,]] hence her knowledge and interest in Musse's tea ceremony club. |
| 98 | * CallingTheOldManOut: When confronting her father in a bar in Raquel, he tries to mollify her by saying he hasn't sold any of her mother's things. She becomes PISSED and makes it clear that he should never even think about the idea. |
| 99 | * ChildOfTwoWorlds: Her father is Erebonian and her mother is from Calvard. |
| 100 | * ColdSniper: She uses a sniper rifle and doesn't show much emotion whether or not she's using it. |

| 134 | An energetic yet "unfortunate" boy from Grenville City near Leeves. He joins the chess club with Kurt and his main weapon is a sniper rifle. |
| 135 | ---- |
| 136 | * AmbiguouslyBi: Despite his RunningGag of striking out with girls, Sidney also has a habit of going on about how attractive and cool the other guys around him are. Supposedly, it's just because he's jealous of their appeal, but with how often he makes those comments, it's a bit suspicious. It's especially noteworthy in his friendship with Kurt, whose appearance Sidney comments on a lot. Once, he says that he would date Kurt in a heartbeat "if Kurt was a girl," but other times, he just comments on Kurt's pretty-boy looks without such qualifiers. |
| 137 | * BookDumb: He got the lowest exam scores out of the entire Branch Campus during midterms, and ended up on 88th place. |
| 138 | * ButtMonkey: He doesn't have very good luck. |
| 139 | * CasanovaWannabe: It's noted by the girls that Sidney is in fact good looking, but his personality and hobbies of collecting gravure pictures and trying to pick up girls leaves much to be desired. He's even described as the unfortunate handsome type by Maya. |
| 140 | * CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: He's not really that smart and is hopeless when it comes to girls, but it's stated by Maya, who is considered the best sniper at the branch campus, that he's better than her at sniping "moving" targets. If Sidney applied himself more, he could very well become better than her one day. |
| 141 | * FriendlySniper: He uses a sniper rifle and is quite personable, especially compared to fellow sniper Maya. |
| 142 | * GreenEyedMonster: PlayedForLaughs when it comes to other boys having more luck with girls than him, particularly with [[ChickMagnet Rean]]. In a conversation with Stark, where the two end up noting Rean's close relationship with so many beautiful women, Sidney even has says this about him: |
| 143 | -->'''Sidney:''' I'm burning with jealousy! That damn Chad needs to backflip onto a land mine already! |
| 144 | * NobleMaleRoguishMale: He's the "roguish" type compared to his friend Kurt, who's noble in both class and personality. |
| 145 | * NormalFishInATinyPond: Inverted; it's noted by Sidney that he was one of the smartest kids back in his hometown, but the moment he enrolled at Thors Branch Campus, he quickly found himself at the bottom of the ladder. This actually causes him some grief for a while until a pep talk from Rean and Maya helps snaps him out of his funk. |
| 146 | * ObliviousToLove: While he’s focused entirely on his slight progress in his relationship with Ada, he has no idea Maya also seems to be interested in him. |
| 147 | * ShipTease: Surprisingly enough, he ends up having some moments with Ada in ''Cold Steel IV''. |
| 148 | * SmartPeoplePlayChess: Inverted; he's in the chess club and scored lower on the exams than the entire rest of the Branch Campus. |

| 328 | ---- |
| 329 | * AloofBigBrother: Claire even refers to him as [[UsefulNotes/JapaneseSiblingTerminology "Nii-san"]] in the Japanese script, and he seems pretty cold with her during their interactions, to the point where she thinks that he hates her.
