| 10 | A list of the various student in Thors Military Academy. Originally, each year consists of 5 classes until the previous year: Class I and II are for noble students while class III, IV and V are for commoners. |
| 11 | |
| 12 | As of ''Cold Steel III'', classes are no longer segregated by social standings. In addition, a normal Class VI was added in place of the previous Class VII. |

| 19 | !Thors Main Campus as a whole: |
| 20 | * BoardingSchool: Students who attend Thors all live near it in dormitories. |
| 21 | * TheBusCameBack: Most of the named Thors students and staff who didn't appear in ''Cold Steel III'' make a return in ''IV'' albeit as voice-only cameos. |
| 22 | * ColorCodedForYourConvenience: The uniforms of the Thors students vary depending on their social class. Students from noble families wear white and blue, whereas commoner students wear green and brown. As Class VII is made up of both nobles and commoners, they were red instead. By ''Cold Steel III'', however, all students now wear red like Class VII did after the academy discarded the noble/commoner segregation. |
| 23 | * MilitaryAcademy: As the name implies. However, as Vandyck himself states, Thors as an academy began to gradually shift its focus from military studies and training to more general and artistic studies as the years passed. Most of its graduates don't even pursue military careers by Class VII's generation. |
| 24 | * OldSchoolBuilding: Played straight with titular Old Schoolhouse which is an abandoned building with mysterious origins. It's later revealed to be a trial ground for Awakener candidates like Rean. |
| 25 | * OnlyOneName: The majority of the commoner students are only known by their given names, while only a few of the noble students have unknown family names. |
| 26 | * RedIsHeroic: As seen on the [[Characters/TrailsSeriesEreboniaThorsStaffAndInstructors staff and instructor page]], the school is characterized by its red horned lion crested emblem. |

| 47 | A second year student and the President of Thors' Student Council and easily the hardest-working person on campus. If anything relating to the students is working properly, it's because she's doing it. Exceptionally talented at organizing people and making friends. |
| 48 | |
| 49 | A year and a half after graduating from Thors, she ends up signing on as a teacher at Thors Branch Campus and becomes the instructor of Class IX. |
| 50 | ---- |
| 51 | * AgeIsRelative: She inverts this, being the frightfully competent president of Thors' Student Council while also looking like the youngest member of the cast other than [[TokenMiniMoe Millium]]. She's actually one of the ''oldest'' students. |
| 52 | * BadassTeacher: In ''Cold Steel III'', she is a professor of the accounting division at Thors Second Branch Campus. |
| 53 | * BewareTheNiceOnes: [[spoiler:While in her drunken stupor at Mishelam in ''Cold Steel IV'', she ends up being angry with Crow, George, and Angelica about the things that they've done throughout the Erebonia arc and how reckless they've been. Crow, George, and Angelica can't say any word to her and are afraid of her.]] |
| 54 | * BigDamnKiss: With Rean if she is chosen as his love interest in ''Cold Steel IV''. |
| 55 | * BirdsOfAFeather: She and Rean are able help and relate to each other thanks to their [[NiceGuy shared selflessness]] and their habit of doubting themselves and their abilities. |
| 56 | * TheCaptain: In ''Cold Steel II'' she becomes the acting-captain of the Courageous when Victor goes with Olivier to help contain the civil war in the western reaches of the Empire. |
| 57 | * {{Cosplay}}: Dressed the part of an IdolSinger at the Academy Festival when she was a first-year, where she was the lead singer in the band. |
| 58 | * CostumeEvolution: Her default outfits are as follows: |
| 59 | ** A Thors commoner uniform, with a blue ribbon on her ponytail, in the first two ''Cold Steel'' games. |
| 60 | ** A Thors Branch Campus instructor uniform, complete with a hat, for the latter two ''Cold Steel'' games, as well as ''Reverie''. The ribbon on the ponytail remains the same, though. |
| 61 | ** A green overshirt, a white undershirt, black pants, and a pair glasses in ''Kuro II''. Also, the ribbon is gone, and she sports a different ponytail. |
| 62 | * CuteBookworm: Her profile picture is her carrying a huge stack of books and she's definitely cute and smart. |
| 63 | ** BadassBookworm: She's also a student at ''Thors Military Academy'' so she's capable of taking care of herself, though in ''Cold Steel'' we never see her use the handgun she's said to use. [[WordOfGod According to an interview with Falcom's CEO]] her combat ability was kept a surprise for the sequel. |
| 64 | * DeathIsCheap: [[spoiler:Despite being killed by a Garden puppet disguised as an anti-immigration terrorist in ''Kuro II'', a convenient Time Leap allows Agnes, Swin, and Nadia to prevent it.]] |
| 65 | * DemotedToExtra: [[spoiler:She's demoted as a SupportPartyMember come ''Cold Steel III'' and ''IV''.]] |
| 66 | * EarlyBirdCameo: Like Juna, the ''Platform/{{Playstation 4}}'' version of ''Azure'' added Towa as an NPC during the West Zemuria Trade Conference, where she can be seen talking on her ARCUS. |
| 67 | * EnemyScan: Her A-Defecter ability, which comes with the ability to inflict a unique status condition called Weakness which raises all elemental weakness stats of the targeted enemy for several turns, making offensive Arts do more damage to them. |
| 68 | * EverythingsBetterWithRainbows: Her S-Craft, Rainbow Shot. |
| 69 | * FunnyBackgroundEvent: When performing her S-Craft, if you keep watching ''her'' rather than her attack you'll see that the recoil knocks her off her feet. |
| 70 | * HandCannon: She uses a 'Magic Gun' a new kind of weapon produced by Zeiss Central Factory which fires bullets which create effects similar to [[MagicFromTechnology Orbal Arts]] when fired. |
| 71 | * HeightAngst: Downplayed but she does not like being reminded of how short she is. In ''Cold Steel III'', Rean nearly does it in Chapter 4 and Towa is less than amused. |
| 72 | * HeroicBSOD: [[spoiler:In ''Cold Steel III'' due to a series of whams that happens to her, all caused by George who insists that their friendship was a lie all along.]] |
| 73 | * HugeGuyTinyGirl: By the time ''Cold Steel III'' comes along Rean is almost twice her height. Should Rean choose her as his love interest in ''Cold Steel IV'' he has to bend over almost double to kiss her. |
| 74 | * InstantRunes: Used in several of her Crafts. |
| 75 | * LimitBreak: Her S-Craft in ''Cold Steel II'' is Rainbow Shot. |
| 76 | * {{Mascot}}: Lampshaded in ''Cold Steel II'', where characters suggest that [[{{Moe}} Towa]] could be turned into a mascot with her own brand of merchandise, to her minor annoyance. Then Falcom kind of went and did it with her Tokyo Xanadu incarnation. |
| 77 | * MeaningfulName: As pointed out by Falcom themselves, she shares a family name with the protagonist of ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfNayutaBoundlessTrails'' and their first names have a very similar feel (being atypically Japanese words that are variations on the theme of 'infinity'). This is a coincidence, truly. |
| 78 | * MysteriousPast: Until ''Cold Steel III'', her past remained something of a mystery. Turns out that she's from Heimdallr where she was raised by her aunt's family after her parents died in an accident. Her grandfather is also a famous astronomer and former director of the Imperial Museum in the capital. |
| 79 | * MythologyGag: Her Brave Order, High Heavens Formation,"is called "Kokonoe-jin" in the Japanese script; this is a reference to [[VideoGame/TokyoXanadu Towa Kokonoe]], her "alternate universe counterpart." |
| 80 | * {{Nephewism}}: Was raised by her aunt and uncle following her parents' deaths. |
| 81 | * OddFriendship: She's a commoner and her best friend is Angelica, who is as Noble as it gets. She is possibly the only person in the world who can get away with calling her 'An-chan'. |
| 82 | * OlderThanTheyLook: She doesn't look it, but she's actually eighteen and older than anyone in Class VII. Taken further in ''Cold Steel III'' where she's 21 and still looks relatively the same. Lampshaded when she introduces herself to both Randy and Michael who think that she's too young for the job. |
| 83 | * OnlySaneMan: [[spoiler:By ''Cold Steel IV'', it's pretty much confirmed that Towa's the only member of her group whose head is always on straight]]. |
| 84 | * PromotedToLoveInterest: After three games of varying ambiguity, ''Cold Steel IV'' finally cements her as one of Rean's potential romantic partners. |
| 85 | * PromotedToPlayable: In the second game, first [[GuestStarPartyMember briefly during the assault on Trista]] and then permanently in the epilogue. |
| 86 | * QuestGiver: All the non-hidden sidequests you do in Trista are given to you by Towa, as delegated Student Council work. |
| 87 | * RankUp: [[spoiler:When Michael returns to the RMP following ''Cold Steel IV'', she is the one taking his place as Chief Instructor while Michael's sister Isara take her place as Class IX Instructor.]] |
| 88 | * ReusedCharacterDesign: She has a counterpart in Falcom's later-released ''Videogame/TokyoXanadu'' named "Towa Kokonoe", who shares some of the same character traits while also being several years older (officially being 23) and, somehow, even more {{Moe}}. |
| 89 | * SenseiChan: Averted in ''Kuro II''; while some students do refer to her as "Towa-chan" ("Towa-chan-sensei," in the case of Nadia), she's never really portrayed as being immature. |
| 90 | * SenselessSacrifice: [[spoiler:During Chapter 1B of ''Kuro II'', she tries to save her student Chignon from being shot by a Garden puppet pretending to be anti-immigrant terrorist, only for said terrorist to pull a DoubleTap anyway. If it weren't for Agnes's Genesis starting a Time Leap, Towa would've died for nothing.]] |
| 91 | * StudentCouncilPresident: Notably, attained the position thanks to hard work and being so likable. |
| 92 | * SupportingLeader: She is the one in charge of the Courageous during the Erebonian Civil War and the head of the students' effort overall. |
| 93 | * VSign: She gives the sign at the conclusion of her S-Craft as her [[PillarOfLight handiwork]] is visible in the background. |
| 94 | * WhamLine: Her announcement that she's attending the West Zemuria Trade Conference is a bit of one for longtime players who know just how dangerous that event wound up being. She survives though. |
| 95 | * {{Workaholic}}: It's noted by numerous characters that she spends pretty much every possible minute working. |
| 96 | * YouAreInCommandNow: Viscount Arseid gives command of the Courageous to Towa. |
| 97 | * YouDidEverythingYouCould: She gives this pep talk to Rean when she notices how much he's been bottling his feelings of guilt about Crow's death. |

| 117 | The daughter of Marquis Rogner of Roer and a scion of the Four Great Houses. A second-year student who enjoys defying stereotypes, she loves bikes and cute girls. Together with Towa, Crow, and George, the four served as members of the trial class that served as the basis for Class VII. Near the end of the first game she's forced to drop out from Thors due to complications with her father, but eventually manages come back in order to finish her term in ''Cold Steel II''. |
| 118 | ---- |
| 119 | * ActionGirl: When Rean is surprised at her request to spar, she reminds him that she's a student at Thors ''Military Academy'', also lampshading her other defining character trait by pointing out that she's not ''just'' there to lust after cute girls. |
| 120 | * AffectionateNickname: Towa calls her "An-chan" in Japanese version, while George just sticks with "An." In NA version, both of them call her "Angie". In both languages, Crow calls her "Gelica." |
| 121 | * AmbiguouslyBi: PlayedWith. While her attraction to cute girls and ButchLesbian attitude is not ambiguous at all, it's her attraction to the opposite sex that is, specifically towards George. In a conversation in ''Cold Steel III'', Rean and Towa discuss and speculate that Angelica and George feel more than just friends, though it's left up in the air if it's this trope, IfItsYouItsOkay, or if they're just [[SubvertedTrope misinterpreting it]]. |
| 122 | * BadHabits: With the aid of the local Bishop, she disguises herself as a nun in order to move around Roer while on the run from her family, including adopting a totally different way of talking that even freaks Rean out. This doesn't prevent her from flirting while in disguise however. |
| 123 | * BareFistedMonk: Of the [[CallBack Taito]] style. In her case, it becomes literal when she's donning her nun outfit. |
| 124 | * BlueBlood: The Rogners are one of the Four Families so she's as blue as they come. [[FridgeBrilliance This might explain why she can get away with violating the dress code.]] |
| 125 | * BornLucky: She's noted by Towa for having good luck. For example, picking out the winner of the Summer Races and winning with 4:5 odds. |
| 126 | * BoyishShortHair: Her hair is a lot shorter than most of the female cast, despite being well-stacked. Grows it out somewhat by ''Cold Steel III''. |
| 127 | * BrainwashedAndCrazy: [[spoiler:In ''Cold Steel IV'', she survives getting shot but is brainwashed into serving the Black Workshop as her new identity, Rossweiss. She snaps out of it though.]] |
| 128 | * BrickJoke: The "Fabulous Fifteens" gag that she starts off in the first game where she wishes Fie, Alfin, and Elise get together with her witnessing it. She gets her wish come true in the second game. |
| 129 | * ButchLesbian: One who has no trouble considering wearing a dress to a formal party if it will help her pick up girls (though she would prefer a tuxedo) and wears a biker suit as everyday wear. |
| 130 | * TheCasanova: She's an [[ImpliedTrope Implied]] RareFemaleExample, as she's noted for having a lot of lovers and Crow claims she stole all of his girlfriends, though we don't see too many on-screen. |
| 131 | * CoolBike: She has a customized bike that she enjoys tuning to even higher performance which she gives to Rean to take care of for a while when she leaves Thors. In ''Cold Steel II'', she builds a second bike from the ground up for touring. |
| 132 | * ContinuityNod: She mentions spending half a year learning the Taito style from a woman from the eastern countries. It's strongly suggested that she's talking about Kilika, as the date given would perfectly fit what we know of her own history. Also, two of her Crafts come straight from Walter's move list. |
| 133 | * CuddleBug: She really likes cuddling cute girls, to the point where Crow remarks that she's dangerously close to sexual harassment. Millium is the only recipient who doesn't seem to mind while most others are somewhat uncomfortable and Towa is just exasperated. [[spoiler:By ''Cold Steel IV'', she'll hug any cute girl no matter who or how old they are. Just ask Tita, Renne, [=KeA=], Sharon (who dodges), or Roselia.]] |
| 134 | * DeathFromAbove: Her Dragon Kick S-Craft involves her jumping up high to land a heavy kick on her enemies. |
| 135 | * {{Determinator}}: In ''Cold Steel II'', she keeps fighting her father and refuses to give up, ever. |
| 136 | * DivingKick: Her S-Craft 'Dragon Kick' has her perform one while enveloped in a [[DragonsUpTheYinYang dragon shaped]] AnimalBattleAura. |
| 137 | * EveryoneHasStandards: PlayedForLaughs when first meeting Millium, she remarks how adorable she is. She admits however, that making any moves on her when she's so young would be wrong, and decides to [[JailbaitWait wait.]] |
| 138 | * {{Flanderization}}: ''Cold Steel IV'' onwards has her ButchLesbian and CuddleBug tendencies towards cute girls dialed up to genuinely uncomfortable levels, to the extent that her other traits are practically absent. [[spoiler:It says a lot when even a ''mind control mask'' cannot curb her sexual drive one bit, something that the ladies of Class VII noticed when they faced her as Scarlet Rossweisse in the Black Workshop.]] |
| 139 | * TheGlomp: [[spoiler:Does this towards Renne, Tita, and [=KeA=] with Renne noting that she didn't even see her move towards them. And in ''Reverie'', she includes Roselia and Lapis in the list.]] |
| 140 | * GuestStarPartyMember: In ''Cold Steel I'', she is only playable at Sachsen Mine. She reprises this role in the sequel after the party heads into Roer and is later playable along with every other character throughout the game that's been playable in the final dungeon. It's also notable that she's only playable Thors-attending character who isn't an adult that you can't do bonding events with. She's this again in ''Cold Steel III'' throughout chapter 3 and is far more available in that chapter. [[spoiler:She's this yet again in ''Cold Steel IV''. Talk about having a perfect attendance.]] |
| 141 | * HideYourGays: Completely averted. Angelica likes girls and doesn't care who knows it. She's also completely shameless about flirting with every girl she finds attractive and nobody seems to have a problem with this. |
| 142 | * HumongousMecha: Briefly pilots a customized Spiegel in ''Cold Steel II''. |
| 143 | * KickChick: She uses her fists for her ordinary attack and [[ContinuityNod Zero Impact]] but her Razor Bullet is kick-based and her S-Craft Dragonar Hazard/Dragon Kick is all kick. |
| 144 | * TheLadette: Despite being as big of a BlueBlood as one can get, she took on a part-time job at Sachsen Mine when she was younger, and not a job in the office either. |
| 145 | * LaserGuidedKarma: In Cold Steel IV she reveals that [[spoiler:her womanizing ways causes her girlfriends to immediately dump her after they get wise to her tricks. Rean outright lampshades it.]] |
| 146 | * LetsGetDangerous: Whenever her friends are in danger, she drops the joking mannerisms and starts kicking ass, sometimes literally. |
| 147 | * LoveableSexManiac: Hits on nearly every girl she meets and makes numerous perverted comments. She's still a dear friend to Towa, Crow, George, and Class VII. |
| 148 | * LimitBreak: Her S-Craft in all her playable appearances is Dragon Kick[[note]]Draguna Hazard[[/note]]. |
| 149 | * MaskOfPower: [[spoiler:As Scarlet Rossweisse, she wears a mask provided by the Black Workshop to brainwash her.]] |
| 150 | * NonUniformUniform: The habit she wears as a disguise in ''Cold Steel II'' is quite a bit more fancy than the standard version, with far more decorative elements and a deeper, richer purple color. |
| 151 | * NunTooHoly: Spends her time as a GuestStarPartyMember in ''Cold Steel II'' disguised in a nun's habit. This does not change her tendencies to flirt with the females of Class VII who are present or beating monsters up with her bare hands whatsoever. |
| 152 | * OddFriendship: Belongs to one of the Four Great Houses yet her best friends are the common-born Towa, George, and Crow. |
| 153 | * PreAssKickingOneLiner: Delivers an awesome one to her father just before unleashing her last attack. |
| 154 | -->'''Angelica''': ''A friend of mine once told me that it's never over until the last card is drawn!'' |
| 155 | * PunchedAcrossTheRoom: Any unfortunate foe at the receiving end of her [[MegatonPunch Zero Impact]] is subject to this unless they are sufficiently heavy and/or large enough. |
| 156 | * RealWomenDontWearDresses: She subverts this; while preferring her riding suit (or a tuxedo if the circumstances call for formal attire) she has no problem wearing a dress if she absolutely must... and acts exactly the same as if she wasn't wearing one. |
| 157 | * SheKnowsTooMuch: [[spoiler:In ''Cold Steel III'' she discovers Crow's body has been taken away from his grave was replaced with a fake as it looks too new. Then George appears with gun in hand and FadeToBlack happens with a gunshot heard. She survives but is taken in by the Black Workshop and brainwashed her into her new identity, Rossweiss.]] |
| 158 | * SkewedPriorities: See the BrickJoke entry above for more details. George had to call her out on it. |
| 159 | * SkirtsAndLadders: Thwarts Crow's attempts to take advantage of this trope in the Sachsen Iron Mine raid by making him and the rest of the boys ascend a ladder first before sending the skirt-wearing girls after then takes advantage of it herself by going last in order to admire Alisa's panties. |
| 160 | * TomboyPrincess: She's the daughter of the head of one of the Four Families and her house soldiers call her 'Princess'. She technically isn't one but she's as close as it gets. |
| 161 | * TheUpperCrass: Hard to believe TheLadette happens to be scion of one of the most powerful Noble families in the empire. Stands out all the more compared to the scions of the other 4 Great Houses and the more reserved members of Class VII (old and new). |
| 162 | * UrbanLegendLoveLife: It's said that she has a large number of lovers, on and off campus. We see a few of them but the implication is that there are many more. |
| 163 | * WalkingTheEarth: Her plan after graduating Thors. She sets out at the end of ''Cold Steel II''. |
| 164 | * WorfHadTheFlu: She's out of practice in her DuelBoss battle, though she'll still put up enough of a fight that the request has an AP bonus for winning. |

| 176 | A second-year student who's a genius with technology and is in charge of maintenance. He once studied under Professor G. Schmidt during his time at the Roer Institute of Technology. Together with Towa, Angelica, and Crow, the four served as members of the trial class that would become the basis for Class VII. |

| 179 | * TheAtoner: [[spoiler:In ''Cold Steel IV'', after being convinced by his friends not to kill himself out of guilt for his actions, he decides to live and make up for what he's done as best he can.]] |
| 180 | * BadassArmfold: [[spoiler:His victory pose has him do this after petting his Naglfar.]] |
| 181 | * BecomingTheMask: [[spoiler:In the end, he prefers being George Nome from Thors rather than being Copper Georg from the Black Workshop.]] |
| 182 | * BeleagueredBoss: Towards Mint on the Courageous, as although Mint is a skilled engineer, her ditziness and clumsiness give George quite a bit of heartburn, such as when she almost dropped a wrench into the engine. |
| 183 | * BigFun: One of the bigger and stouter members of the cast is also one of the friendliest. [[spoiler:Until ''Cold Steel III'' reveals that he's been a taciturn member of the villain team since the beginning. And even when he does rejoin the heroes, he never quite goes back to the cheerful guy he once was.]] |
| 184 | * TheDogWasTheMastermind: [[spoiler:Who would have thought your friendly, pie-loving engineer would turn out to be a major antagonist?]] |
| 185 | * DrivenToSuicide: [[spoiler:Pulls out a gun pointed to his head to shoot himself for what he had done in ''Cold Steel IV''. Angelica stops him before he can do the deed and snaps him out of it alongside Crow and Towa.]] |
| 186 | * EnemyScan: [[spoiler:Uses Naglfar to scan at his enemies just like Altina's Claiomh Solais.]] |
| 187 | * EnergyWeapon: [[spoiler:Just like Millium and Altina, he can fire laser beams to his enemies through his robotic companion Naglfar.]] |
| 188 | * EvilAllAlong: [[spoiler:Ultimately subverted; ''Cold Steel III'' reveals that he is "Copper Georg," a gnome working for Black Alberich, and his friendship with Crow, Angelica and Towa was all supposedly all a front. But ''IV'' reveals that his time as "George" had his memories of being a gnome and their plans sealed until one of the Awakeners was killed in battle, meaning that up until about the Epilogue of ''II'' his friendship and cheerful personality really WAS geniune as far as he knew.]] |
| 189 | * EvilerThanThou: [[spoiler:Subverted; ''Cold Steel III'' would have you believe him to be far worse of a traitorous bastard than Crow ever was, what with him blowing up the Courageous, supposedly killing Toval, Olivert and Victor, making even ''Campanella'' ever-so-slightly disgusted. Then ''Cold Steel IV'' reveals George preferred his life as "George Nome" over being "Copper Georg", causing him to not go through with killing anybody.]] |
| 190 | * FatBastard: [[spoiler:It looked like this was his true self in ''Cold Steel III'', but ''IV'' revealed that things weren't that simple.]] |
| 191 | * {{Foreshadowing}}: He's very proficient with Zemurian Ore - a material so rare many people don't even know it exists - to the point of being able to make a Divine Knight's sword out of it despite being a mere student. This isn't likely to tip off most players on the first playthrough, but after [[TheReveal The Reveal]] in ''Cold Steel III'', it's hard to go back to the first two games and not see the clues that suggested he was much more than what he seemed. It's also well hidden as many players would just pass it off as him learning it from Schmidt as he was his student of his as revealed in ''II''. |
| 192 | * TheGhost: He doesn't appear in the first ''Daybreak'' game, but he is mentioned by [[Characters/TrailsSeriesLiberlCivilians Ray]], who George befriended back when he visited the Zeiss Central Factory in between ''Cold Steel II'' and ''III''. |
| 193 | * HateSink: [[spoiler:Subverted; ''Cold Steel III'' was certainly building himself to be this, as the ''first'' thing he did post-reveal is shoot Angelica. He then proceeded to top that in the final chapter by blowing up the Courageous, all while coldly telling Towa that his friendship with her was a lie from the very start. But then ''Cold Steel IV'' revealed that, out of all the new villains, he might be the least hated of the bunch, as despite being the one to rig the Courageous with explosives and shooting Angelica, not only does he show remorse, but he always took the route to avoid actually killing anyone. Perhaps due to this, he actually gets redemption.]] |
| 194 | * HeelFaceTurn: [[spoiler:He goes back to being an ally of Class VII in ''Cold Steel IV'', after being convinced to atone for his actions.]] |
| 195 | * HeroKiller: [[spoiler:When he reveals his true colors, he manages to rack an impressive body count comprised of many important characters. First, he manages to shoot Angelica off-screen. Then, he rigs the Courageous with explosives and has Alberich detonate the ship with Toval, Olivert, and Victor inside. Subverted as he didn't kill any of the characters listed because he made a failsafe at the bridge to let the characters and their crew at the bridge live. Meanwhile with Angelica, he spared her but brainwashed her into serving the Black Workshop though Alberich calls him out on it.]] |
| 196 | * KnightOfCerebus: [[spoiler:Him revealing his true nature and shooting Angelica is the point where ''Cold Steel III'' quickly takes a dark turn.]] |
| 197 | * LimitBreak: [[spoiler:He's one of 4 playable characters in ''Cold Steel IV'', to ''not'' get an S-Craft, but ''Reverie'' fixes that by giving him Dvergr Hammer.]] |
| 198 | * MeaningfulName: His name can be written as G. Nome which also can be seen as Gnome. It has its own creature description "giving heroes the weapon they need to overcome trials" and George's role in the game is [[UltimateBlacksmith not that different]]. [[spoiler:It also foreshadows the fact that he's part of the gnomes and that he's been with the Black Workshop from the start as revealed in ''III''.]] |
| 199 | * MemoryGambit: Combined with ManchurianAgent. [[spoiler:The Black Workshop used Weissmann's techniques to give Copper Georg temporary amnesia so he could flawlessly play his role as George Nome, all while he unknowingly reports information back to the workshop. Georg apparently consented to this, but didn't expect that he'd genuinely care for the people he was supposed to spy on.]] |
| 200 | * MrFixit: He helps maintain everyone's ARCUS Tactical Orbments as well as Angelica's bike and people throughout Trista send things to him to repair. |
| 201 | * NonActionGuy: The only member of the "original Class VII" who is never a playable character in either game. He provides a lot of support and it's suggested that he has some skill in battle, but he never does join you. [[spoiler:At least until ''Cold Steel IV'' where he shows off what he can do both as an enemy and as an ally.]] |
| 202 | * OnlyOneName: [[spoiler: According to flashbacks in ''Cold Steel IV'', he was only ever known as "Georg" growing up. "Nome" was [[LineOfSightName a surname he invented for his cover identity by taking the 'g' off of "Gnome".]]]] |
| 203 | * PokeThePoodle: [[spoiler:For all his apparent villainy in ''Cold Steel III'', ''IV'' reveals he can't quite be as nasty as Alberich demands of him. He gave the Courageous crew a warning and window to escape, only captured Angelica (yeah he brainwashed her but Alberich wanted her dead and he defied him on this) and let Celine attempt to heal Rean without trying to stop her or reporting her presence which leads to his breakout. And in the end, he ends up severing his ties with Alberich when he keeps calling him out on this.]] |
| 204 | * PromotedToPlayable: [[spoiler:Ends up becoming playable in ''Cold Steel IV'', and again in ''Reverie''.]] |
| 205 | * RedBaron: [[spoiler:Those who know his true identity refer to him as 'Copper Georg'.]] |
| 206 | * ShapeShifter: [[spoiler:He manages to disguise himself as one of the regular mechanics maintaining the Courageous so that he can sneak in and rig the ship with explosives.]] |
| 207 | * TheSmartGuy: The Roer Institute of Technology would love to have him. [[spoiler:''Cold Steel III'' and ''IV'' do have him be the EvilGenius of the Black Workshop team for a while, but he eventually comes back to his previous role.]] |
| 208 | * TheStoic: [[spoiler:While he puts up the front of a friendly ally who loves tinkering with machines, George's true personality is cold and ruthless, carrying out Alberich's orders without hesitation or remorse. And even after he decided that he prefered being George over Georg, he never truly returns to the jovial persona he had in school. His true personality is indeed very stoic, but less cold and calculating and more in the quiet, polite kind of way.]] |
| 209 | * TransformingWeapon: [[spoiler:As is the standard with Combat Shells, Naglfar can change its form; ''Cold Steel IV'' shows it becoming a [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/nafglar_forms_concept_art_hajimari_5.png hammer]] for George's Caladbolg Craft, with ''Reverie'' adding in a [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/nafglar_forms_concept_art_hajimari_7.png cannon]] form for his Dvergr Hammer S-Craft.]] |
| 210 | * UltimateBlacksmith: He's the guy who can use Zemurian Stone to enhance your existing weapons in Sen and make [[InfinityPlusOneSword weapons out of it]] from scratch in ''Cold Steel II''. He also uses the massive crystals of the stuff the party collects to create [[HumongousMecha Valimar's]] sword. [[spoiler:Him being a gnome working under Alberich is likely related to how he has these skills.]] |
| 211 | * WalkingTheEarth: At the end of ''Cold Steel II'', in order to visit famous engineering institutions like Zeiss Central Factory, the Epstein Foundation and the Verne company to meet Latoya Hamilton. [[spoiler:Turns out his meeting with Hamilton was a lie however, as Angelica finding out that he never visited Calvard on his 'trip' and Hamilton being out of the country at the time of his supposed visit is what tips her off that her friend is hiding something.]] |
| 212 | * WalkingSpoiler: His actions in ''Cold Steel III'' affect the plot of the latter half of the game as a whole. And so does ''Cold Steel IV'' where [[spoiler:not everything is as it seems to be.]] He's such a walking spoiler that the Playstation 4 console itself ''will'' prevent any kind of recording scenes pertaining to him. |
| 213 | * WasItAllALie: [[spoiler:Towa asks him of this in ''Cold Steel III'' after revealing to her that he shot Angelica and is responsible for the destruction of the Courageous by blowing it up. And he'd be the expert on the schematics as well as he was the main engineer of the Courageous during the CivilWar. Technically it wasn't a lie though as George himself didn't know he was a spy during their time at Thors. And as it turns out even with his Gnome personality restored he enjoyed his life as George far more than he realized, which eventually lead him to do a HeelFaceTurn.]] |

| 225 | |
| 226 | The third son of Marquis Hyarms, an arrogant first-year student whom Rean encounters during his time Thors. After suffering defeat at the former's hands and meeting Rean's younger sister Elise, Patrick slowly begins to grow out of his arrogance and begins to change into a man befitting his status as a noble. |
| 227 | ---- |
| 228 | * AlphaBitch: In ''Cold Steel I'', the other first-years in Classes I and II flock to him because of his father. |
| 229 | * BlueBlood: He's from one of the Four Great Houses, making him one of the most socially prominent members of the incoming class at Thors. |
| 230 | * CharacterDevelopment: From the little time we see him in ''Cold Steel I'' and ''II'', he goes from an egotistical {{Jerkass}} to a noble who can be truly proud of himself where he upholds all the positive traits of being one. He cements it by taking Rean's hand in a sign of friendship, rivalry, and acknowledgement. This is taken further in ''Cold Steel III'' where it's clear that he's mellowed out a lot during the time skip. |
| 231 | * TheDulcineaEffect: One major motivator of his character development is his crush on Elise and that was started when he charged in to help rescue her in Chapter 4 of ''Cold Steel''. |
| 232 | * GuestStarPartyMember: [[spoiler:He's playable whilst piloting a Spiegel S in ''Cold Steel IV'', teaming up with Rean in Valimar against Alan, who is consumed by the curse.]] |
| 233 | * HiddenDepths: Despite appearing like your stereotypical noble jerk, Patrick is shown to be quite honorable at heart and does in fact show remorse for some of his more disrespectful actions even if his arrogance prevents him from fully admitting to it. He's also close friends with Celestin, his butler since childhood and even regards him as being like a brother. |
| 234 | * IHatePastMe: By the time of ''Cold Steel III'', he's come to feel ashamed of how much of a {{Jerkass}} he was to Class VII and in general at the start of the series, even taking the time to personally apologize to Gaius. Also counts as JerkassRealization. |
| 235 | * JerkassHasaPoint: During his rant to Class VII, Patrick calls the Reinfords a "family of upstart arm peddlers". Alisa takes this comment in stride, saying she won't deny how the Reinford company made its millions. |
| 236 | * LastNameBasis: Almost always refers to Rean as Schwarzer, though Rean always refers to him as Patrick. |
| 237 | * LightheartedRematch: His final request to Class VII during ''Cold Steel II'''s epilogue. He loses, but [[GracefulLoser takes it much better then last time]] and fully acknowledges Rean and his class as worthy rivals. |
| 238 | * KickTheDog: After losing to Class VII in a mock battle during ''Cold Steel I'', he rejects Rean's friendly handshake and started to insult each of its non-noble members, starting with a HARSH AdoptionDiss at Rean. [[EveryoneHasStandards Even his classmates think he went too far.]] |
| 239 | * MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Humorous example. When his initial request for a friendly rematch with Class VII ends up with them later on having to fight Ferris, Vincent and their maid then facing off against Principal Vandyck and Instructor Beatrix he can only quietly mutter : ''What have I started?'' |
| 240 | %%* TheProudElite: And boy, he really does. At least in ''Cold Steel I''. |
| 241 | * RichBitch: In ''Cold Steel I'', he lords his rank over everyone - except Jusis, who as the second son of a Duke, is the only student at Thors who outranks him socially. |
| 242 | %%* RoyalRapier: He's skilled with his sword and joined the Fencing Club. |
| 243 | * ShadowArchetype: In ''Cold Steel I'', he was Jusis stripped of most his redeeming qualities, which the game played for all its worth. He grows into a better person over time, though. |
| 244 | * SoreLoser: Evident after his defeat against Class VII in a mock battle during ''Cold Steel I''. He starts babbling about how nobles like him could lose to a bunch of commoners while also mocking them until Gaius made him stop. In ''Cold Steel II'', he matures a ''lot''. |
| 245 | * SupportPartyMember: Only in sporadic moments but in ''Cold Steel III'', players can uses his Brave Order Southern Cross which decreases casting time, recovers HP, EP, and CP. |
| 246 | * TookALevelInBadass: In ''Cold Steel II'', he and the entire Thors group struggle with at least one magic knight. They probably killed a few, but they had to do it together. Come ''Cold Steel III'' and he's strong enough to take out two ''by himself''. |
| 247 | * TookALevelInKindness: Started out as your classic pompous twit who can't get enough of lording his status over everyone else, to say nothing of how poorly he got along with Class VII during ''Cold Steel I''. But if you talk to him when the Alliance launches their invasion on Thors, he'll immediately try to assist the defense and states all Nobles and Commoners must fight together as equals. His development comes much more pronounced when he accepts his loss to Class VII in ''Cold Steel II'', pledging the entire student body's assistance to them and formally acknowledging Rean and the rest as worthy rivals. His kindness is even more pronounced in ''Cold Steel III'', though Rean ''still'' won't let him near Elise save for the ballroom dance near the end of the game. |
| 248 | * UndyingLoyalty: In ''Cold Steel II'', despite being a son of House Hyarms, Patrick's loyalty is towards Thors Military Academy first as the moment the Noble Alliance retreat from the vicinity he and his fellow upper-class students quickly move to release the staff members who were taken captive. |
| 249 | * WouldntHitaGirl: {{Deconstructed|Trope}}. During the mock battle between Classes I & VII, Patrick refuses to fight any of the girls, saying that it's a man's duty to protect the "fragile flowers of womanhood", not to wound them. Given that said girls are [[ArcaneArcher Alisa]], [[LadyofWar Laura]], [[ChildSoldier Fie]] and [[LadyofBlackMagic Emma]], they do not take this well. Additionally, they're at a ''military academy'' and some of his classmates are girls. This makes his refusal to fight women sexist and condescending rather than chivalrous. He gets over it by ''Cold Steel II'', however. |

| 265 | * FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling: The Responsible to her brother Vincent's Foolish. |
| 266 | * FriendlyRival: What she and Alisa are to each other in a nutshell. It takes a while for Ferris herself to admit it and simply saw Alisa as someone who was beneath her. It's not until one of Alisa's bonding events that the two finally come to terms with each other. She also views Class VII as this as well. |
| 267 | * IfYouEverDoAnythingToHurtHer: In ''Cold Steel II'', she says this to Rean should he decide to meet with Alisa in Class VII's dormitory on the night of Trista's liberation from the Noble Alliance, promising him that he would REGRET hurting her if he did. Rean understandably complies. |
| 268 | * ShipperOnDeck: Though willing to give Rean the third degree if he ever hurts Alisa, she's also supportive of their relationship and even tells Alisa to not keep Rean waiting during her final bonding event in ''Cold Steel II''.

| 379 | The head of the fencing club. Friedel is a calm, collected young woman who never seems to let anything phase her. She generally doesn't bother getting involved in the matches beyond coaching the participants, which leads some of the club's participants to assume that she isn't very good at it; in reality, she is a frighteningly talented fencer who can hand nearly any other combatant on campus their head on a platter. |
| 380 | ---- |
| 381 | * BewareTheNiceOnes: She is seldom seen without a polite smile on her face and nothing seems to get under her skin. Get her in the ring, however, and she'll very quickly prove why she's the club's leader. Even Patrick felt fear at her scolding him. |
| 382 | * CuteSportsClubManager: She appears to be this at first, given that she prefers to manage the club from the sidelines rather than getting directly involved in the matches and her activities are of the "coaching/replacing broken equipment" variety. Ultimately subverted when she takes to the ring and is revealed to be a frighteningly powerful fencer whom no one can even come close to besting. Patrick learns about this the hard way. |

| 577 | A member of the Gardening Club. Linde is her older twin sister. A flirty and adventurous girl, she often annoys her older sister with her antics. Upon graduating, Vivi began work as a reporter for the Imperial Chronicle and becomes one of Rean's regular contacts after reuniting with him in Parm. |
| 578 | ---- |
| 579 | * AmbiguouslyBi: Frequently flirts with Rean and is just way into Edel's sexy body. |
| 580 | * BridgeBunny: Works on the bridge of the Courageous in ''Cold Steel II''. |
| 581 | * IdenticalTwinIDTag: The easiest way to tell Linde and Vivi apart aside from their hairstyles is to look at their eyes. Vivi's eyes resembles a cat somewhat, mirroring her mischievous nature, whereas Linde's does not. |
| 582 | * NotSoAboveItAll: Vivi likes to play up the part of her being a playful tease, but there are some moments - especially in ''Cold Steel II'' - where the facade falls away and Vivi is shown to be serious, nervous, or emotional. |
| 583 | * PolarOppositeTwins: A foil to her more serious sister, Vivi is playful, flirtatious, forward, and an unreserved prankster. |

| 585 | * RedOniBlueOni: The red to her sister's blue. |
| 586 | * SideQuest: Is part of the three overarching sidequests for ''Cold Steel III'' and hers is taking photos of the various scenery Rean visits. |
| 587 | * TheTease: She introduces herself to Rean (and sets the tone for all future interactions) by asking him to look under her skirt and give his opinion on her underwear. |
| 588 | * TwinSwitch: She likes to do this by putting her hair into pigtails like Linde. She uses it to troll her sister and Rean in a sidequest. Edel's the only one to notice the difference. |
| 589 | * XanatosGambit: An extraordinarily petty example. Vivi made a bet with Linde that whoever scored lower on the mid-term exams would have to wear a skimpy swimsuit to the school's pool. Vivi winds up losing the bet, but states she's just going to impersonate Linde at the pool anyway so the outcome is still essentially the same as if Linde lost. Linde is not pleased that it was set up so she'd lose either way. |

| 615 | * HiddenDepths: Despite his pervertedness, the head of the club notes that he's actually a really talented photographer. He's also deadly serious when Trista is invaded at the end of the game, vowing to get any photographic evidence of the terrorists he can. In the sequel, he becomes a full-fledged war photographer, and outright refuses to join the Courageous until he's finished documenting everything he can. |

| 650 | A student at the school who spends her free time as a nun in the Trista church. In truth however, it's revealed that she's secretly the squire to the Second Dominion of the Gralsritter, Thomas Lysander. |
| 651 | ---- |
| 652 | * AscendedExtra: Plays a much larger role in ''Cold Steel III''. Considering TheReveal in ''Cold Steel II'', this was bound to happen to her. |
| 653 | * AutomaticCrossbows: Her main weapon of choice as a squire, similar to Kevin's. |
| 654 | * ChurchMilitant: She's a squire of the Gralsritter, specifically for the Second Dominion. |
| 655 | * DudeMagnet: A boy in Trista develops a PrecociousCrush on her, and Rean and Machias both find her smile to be very attractive. The less positive side of this trope is shown in ''Cold Steel II'', where two provincial army soldiers hit on her, much to her discomfort. |
| 656 | * FiringOneHanded: Just like Kevin, she fires her crossbow one handed. |
| 657 | * FriendToAllChildren: Is always hanging around children, helping out Sunday School. |

| 659 | * HiddenBuxom: Her nun habit makes it hard to tell, but when she's in her Thor's uniform, she's shown to have quite the bust. Lampshaded by [[CovertPervert Rean]] who notes that he probably should be thinking of something else. |
| 660 | * InstantCostumeChange: When Thomas uses his powers to make a partition of time to have a talk with Rean, Thomas, and Rosine, the latter immediately changes into her nun habit. |
| 661 | * NiceGirl: She's a good girl. Even when Thomas starts dropping so many things on Rean after TheReveal, she tells her boss to make it less overwhelming for Rean and thinks that Thomas made Rean ''very'' wary about him and the Gralsritter. |
| 662 | * NumberTwo: To Thomas as his squire. [[spoiler:Ends up becoming this for Gaius in ''Cold Steel IV'' throughout all of Act 2.]] |
| 663 | * NunsAreMikos: Par for the course for the series - Rosine takes up being a sister of the church as an after-school job, rather than as a way of life. Subverted (sort of) when you find out who she really is. |
| 664 | * TheReveal: She's the squire of the Second Dominion, Thomas. |

She also ends up reading fortunes in ''Cold Steel IV'' at the Mirror Castle in Mishelam. |
| 693 | * JumpScare: She first appears to new Class VII in ''Cold Steel IV'' by appearing out of nowhere at Milsante while a member of old Class VII is away to answer a phone call that had static issues. |
| 694 | * InexplicablyAwesome: Despite not being affiliated with the Hexen Clan in any way, she displays an impressive grasp and knowledge of a lot of their workings and even sometimes shown to know things that even members like Emma and Celine don't. She's even able to visit their village with ease despite the fact that there's magic barrier surrounding Eryn meant to keep outsiders away, and outside of that is also able to appear anywhere at any given time. Multiple characters are constantly baffled by this. |

| 697 | * SmarterThanYouLook: Zigzagged. While she scores 5th place in the Midterm Exams of ''Cold Steel I'', which makes her the 5th smartest student among the 1st year students of Thors, Beryl claims she didn't really need to study. Her supernatural clairvoyance apparently allows her to know what the exact material was going to be in the tests. |
| 698 | * SupernaturalGoldEyes: Has amber eyes and is one of the most mysterious characters in-game, able to appear just about anywhere and having knowledge about events that only few people would know. She can |

| 821 | * DefeatMeansFriendship: In ''Cold Steel IV'', [[spoiler:after their defeat in Leeves, they take the Derfflinger and help the Branch Campus in their field operations.]] |
| 822 | * EqualOpportunityEvil: Unlike the previous generation, they aren't shown to have conflicts over social class. Unfortunately, they're also needlessly smug towards the Branch Campus [[spoiler:and side with Osborne and Cedric even after the two start doing questionable things to start a war.]] |
| 823 | * HeroWorshipper: Deconstructed. The students like the idea of being friends with Prince Cedric, [[spoiler:but this allows him to rope them into helping Osborne with his political goals.]] In one of Kurt's bonding events, Ada and Fritz try to pressure him into rejoining Class I and genuinely believe they're doing him a favor, since they can't comprehend why anyone would want to distance themselves from the prince. |
| 824 | * HumongousMecha: In between ''Cold Steel II'' and ''III'', Panzer Soldat piloting was added to the curriculam, with Ada and Fritz shown to each be piloting a Spiegel S. |
| 825 | * MistreatmentInducedBetrayal: [[spoiler:While they already showed reluctance to help Osborne, they really turn against him when the new curriculum includes Zauber Soldat training, which will curse them if they pilot the mechs for too long. As a result, they immediately join Class VII after losing to them in battle.]] |
| 826 | * TheProudElite: They consider themselves superior to the Branch Campus in terms of resources, academics, and combat prowess. [[spoiler:After joining forces with the Branch Campus in ''Cold Steel IV'', they start treating their rivals as equals.]] |
| 827 | * ToxicFriendInfluence: Not only is it implied that Cedric pushed them to be antagonistic towards the Branch Campus, [[spoiler:they side him in regards to the Great Twilight despite being uncomfortable with his actions and SanitySlippage. When they realize that he and the government are willing to put them in [[WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity Zauber Soldats]], they break away from him and become nicer to the Branch Campus. That said, they do hope they can turn Cedric back on the correct path.]] |

| 841 | A somewhat stuck-up girl in Class I who acts as one of Prince Cedric's main followers. |
| 842 | ---- |
| 843 | * BetaBitch: She's one of the main followers of Prince Cedric and shares his condescending attitude towards the Branch Campus. By Chapter 4, while she still insists that Class I is better overall, she relents that Class VII has better teamwork since Class I relies a little too much on Cedric. |
| 844 | * DefeatMeansFriendship: [[spoiler:After being defeated by Rean, Randy, Tita, and New Class VII, she joins in their fight]] |
| 845 | * HeelFaceTurn: [[spoiler:She and the rest of the Main Campus ally with Class VII and their allies in Chapter 2 of ''Cold Steel IV''.]] |
| 846 | * HeroWorshipper: Admits that she enrolled in Thors due to hearing of the exploits of the original Class VII. She's particular a big fan of Alisa, having expressed her desire to be just like the former and is stunned into silence when Alisa teasingly considers offering Ada a job at Reinford after she graduates. |
| 847 | * MyMasterRightOrWrong: She chooses to follow Cedric even when he's getting involved in some obviously suspicious stuff at the end of ''Cold Steel III''. |
| 848 | * SatelliteCharacter: She doesn't really serve much purpose other than to be Cedric's follower. Both her and Fritz lampshade it in a sidequest in ''Cold Steel III'' where they ask Rean to help them. |
| 849 | * ShipTease: In ''Cold Steel IV'', she and Sydney have a few moments. |

| 860 | * DefeatMeansFriendship: |
| 861 | ** Invoked during his chess match with Kurt in ''III''. He and Ada make an unofficial bet with Kurt where if the latter loses, he has to join the Main Campus. Kurt falters at first and almost loses on purpose, but ultimately [[DefiedTrope decides to win]] and stick to his decision of joining the Branch Campus. |
