266	* LameComeback: Engages in a verbal fight against Kyoko, but ends up questioning every threat he says.
267	* MouthfulOfPi: He can recite Pi to the 57 places.

269	* ObliviousToLove: Is either ignorant or shy when it comes to Kyoko's advances on him. Though, they don't really get to spend too much time together.
270	* ShipperOnDeck: For Earle and Dove. Knows that they like each other and wants the two of them to admit it to each other.
271	* ShipTease: With Kyoko. He seems to take a liking to her and Pandy has even taken notice.
272	* ShockAndAwe: Uses electricity on some of his attacks.
273	* SkillGateCharacters: Much of Sabson's attacks are situational or slow. His attacks that are not slow or situational are counter attacks that have small counter windows, making him a character that takes time to get used to. Even his Edge requires some mastery (no pun intended) before it becomes effective.
274	* SociallyAwkwardHero: As he grew up bullied and not accustomed to interacting with people, Sabson can stumble through social situations. His humor (or attempts at humor) can be a little too awkward.
275	* SquishyWizard: Has relatively low health ingame.
276	* TimeMaster: Due to his rapidly progressing mastery over his magic, he can stop time dead in it's tracks. He used this on Kyoko as she attempted to flee and trapped her in time-stopped loop until he got Doubt's secret hideout location from her.
277	* ToBeAMaster: Sabson strives to master his new powers and learn everything he can about the world.
278	* TheWoobie: Terrible home life, bullied at school and constantly made fun of... nothing seems to go his way.

288	-->''...does it really matter what I say?''
289
290	->'''Fighting Style:''' ''Self taught combination of calculation and instinct''
291
292	->One of the protagonists in the game. Spritz is a quiet and gentle giant, who rarely talks. From a bad background, Spritz prefers to not share the details of his past with his friends and instead enjoys the good times. After being saved by Elreed from Doubt's attack on Hazelroad High, Spritz becomes a Wishmere and transforms into a cyborg with incredible knowledge.
293
294	->When Earle and Duu Shen squabble in battle with Narsus, Spritz loses control and saves their lives, but kills Narsus in the process. Finally seeing what he can do, Spritz is told to stay out of the battlefield. The Nexus is suddenly attacked, with [[spoiler: Elreed dying]] and Spritz and Hanna captured. Spritz falls victim to Doubt's mind control and believes in his doctrine. Together with Doubt and a kidnapped Hanna, they await the arrival of the Wishmere in the Halcyon Sewers.
295
296	->When the Wishmere arrive, Spritz lashes out and attacks Hanna and takes aim at Dove, whom had passed judgement on him for his mistake. He is defeated by Dove and shakes off Doubt's mind control when Doubt is killed by Earle. Though ashamed, Spritz is easily forgiven by his friends and he pledges to watch over Elreed and the Nexus in atonement.

299
300	Tropes associated with Spritz:
301
302	* {{Angst}}: Oh, so much. Just look at his Base of Darkness quotes.
303	* TheAtoner: At the end of the game, his temper and inner demons leads him to fall prey to Doubt's mind control. He says and does some bad things to his best friends because of it and now seeks to atone for his mistakes and weakness by protecting the place where it all started: the Nexus.
304	* BrainwashedAndCrazy: Taken under Doubt's control after the Nexus falls to Doubt's attack. But Spritz gets better.
305	* CharacterDevelopment: In the early parts of the game, he's largely silent and hardly speaks. When he is forced to train against Safford, he is combative and reclusive. Then [[spoiler: he accidentally kills Narsus]] and is taken hostage at the end of the fight at the Nexus. He's revealed to have fallen under Doubt's mind control and the worst parts of him come out, believing that his friends never liked him and are only there to save Hanna. After Doubt is defeated, his control over Spritz wears off, and Spritz asks his friends for forgiveness and is blown away that they forgive him easily. Spritz then looks to atone for his past transgressions by keeping watch over the Nexus and [[spoiler: Elreed's comatose body]].
306	* CloseRangeCombatant: Is the only grappler in the game.
307	* {{Cyborg}}
308	* DarkAndTroubledPast: Hinted at having a "complicated" life at home and doesn't seem to speak much.

309	* EnemyScan: He knows his opponent's moves even before they fight.
310	* EyesAlwaysShut: Always, for both his human and cyborg form. He only opens his eyes during his Fate Break and for one of his taunts.
311	* {{Foreshadowing}}: [[spoiler: While training, Safford is very interested in Spritz's power. In the end, it was revealed that Safford was scouting the Wishmere for their strongest fighter as per Doubt's wishes]]
312	* FullFrontalAssault: Doesn't wear any clothes once he becomes a cyborg. But he [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything doesn't seem to have any genitals showing though]].
313	* GentleGiant: Or so it seems. Cracks start to show as the game progresses.
314	* GrappleMove: Has three grab moves.
315	* HeadphonesEqualIsolation: Loves listening to music, and post-transformation, he has a music player built into his head by the looks of his taunt.
316	* InformedAbility: We're told that he is very strong and [[spoiler: Safford chooses him as Doubt's pawn]], but we never see the extent of his strength.
317	* KickTheDog: [[WouldHurtAChild Attacks a 6 year old girl]], Hanna when he's evil, injuring her.

331
332	->'''Fighting Style:''' ''None''
333
334	->The main antagonist of the game. A powerful demon that is known as the Voice of Evil, destined to be reborn every 15 years. Powered by the souls of the dead in a personal realm known as the Shadow Plains, Doubt has an endless lifespan due to being recharged when he is defeated. Doubt has been battling Elreed, the God of Dreams for centuries. Vying to end the world, Doubt has killed several heroes and Wishmere that Elreed has worked with throughout time. 15 years before the game begins, Doubt kills Duncan, Earle's father, but is also defeated by Duncan in the process.
335
336	->Returning again, Doubt is [[spoiler: confronted by Safford, whom he kills and reincarnates under his control to spy on the Wishmere.]] Biding his time and waiting for the Wishmere to unravel, Doubt bolsters his forces and sends his trusted subordinate, Kyoko to invade the Nexus, the Wishmere's secret headquarters. Finally [[spoiler:casting a curse on Elreed and ending his life]], Doubt takes Spritz captive and Hanna as insurance. He mind controls Spritz into doing his bidding, looking for the straw to break the Wishmere.
337
338	->Meeting the Wishmere in the Halcyon Sewers with an evil Spritz and an ace up his sleeve [[spoiler:(Evil Safford)]], Doubt intends for them to implode and pick apart the pieces. Unbeknown to him, Sabson teleports himself, Earle and Doubt into the Shadow Plains. Angered and forced to do battle, Doubt is defeated by Earle and outsmarted by Sabson, ending his once infinite amount of energy and is destroyed for good, causing the Shadow Plains to crumble.
339

341
342	Tropes associated with Doubt:
343
344	* AffablyEvil: Has a charm and candor that is welcoming and intelligent.
345	* ArchEnemy: Elreed. Though, Doubt speaks to him like they're old friends.
346	* BadassArmFold: Does this during his air throw and in his CPU-only teleport offscreen.
347	* BadassLongcoat: Wears a greyish blue coat which billows in the wind.
348	* BadBoss: His Base of Darkness quotes imply his soldiers think of him this way.
349	%%* BeautyIsBad: The big bad in the game and he's not that bad looking of a guy.
350	%%* BerserkButton: Seems to be when he is controlled against his will or loses control over people, ironically.
351	%%* BreakThemByTalking: Is ''very'' fond of this.
352	%%* BigBad
353	%%* CastingAShadow: Has lots of this imagery going on.
354	* TheChessmaster: All his plans revolve around playing people from the shadows and using his influence and reputation to force people into doing his bidding.
355	* CheshireCatGrin: In and out of the dark. Especially visible when he's fading out into darkness. Especially noticeably in his victory pose.
356	* ColorMotifs: Dark purple, as it is the color of his dark energy.
357	* CombatPragmatist: Prefers to fight his battles that are already half fought or with a sneak attack, or even barely even getting involved in them.
358	%%* DarkIsEvil: Quite literally.
359	* DeadpanSnarker: Makes sense, as his favorite past time seems to be talking.
360	* EvilCannotComprehendGood: Constantly puts down the spiel of the good guys. He makes a mention that he's heard this kind of talk for centuries, but he still doesn't understand it.
361	%%* EvilCounterpart: Elreed states that Doubt is this to him.
362	%%* EvilLaugh
363	* FatalFlaw: Never seems to adapt his strategy, even after centuries. It's his arrogance and belief that his source of power will never be found out that costs him his life. Constant reincarnation and 'winning' might do that to you though.
364	* GlassCannon: Ha some really strong offense, but he has really low health.
365	* KickTheDog: Has a couple of moments.
366	** Killing a begging [=McGavin=] when he failed to kill the Wishmere.
367	** Using Hanna as bait for the Wishmere to meet him in the sewers.
368	** Pie faced Earle with the knowledge of murdering his dad to goad him and drop his guard.
369	* LongRangeFighter: He can fight up close, but he's much better from far away, where he can dictate the pace of the match.
370	* ManipulativeBastard: Every event and how the chessboard is set in the game is a result of his doing. It's arguable whether or not his followers ([=McGavin=], Kyoko, Narsus and Dr. Chaka) are under his mind control spell or whether they are charmed by him. Kyoko seems to have acted against him and consciously, so it's likely that he knows how to get into the mind of his subordinates and his promises sound too good to pass up to them.
371	* MindRape: The way he brainwashes his victims.
372	* PreMortemOneLiner: His "What's a puppet without it's puppeteer?" after he [[spoiler: Demon Curses Elreed for the last time]].
373	* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Gives this to the Wishmere when he reveals a brainwashed Spritz.
374	* Reincarnation: Always comes back to life every 15 years. It's something that puzzles Elreed and every generation of Wishmere so much that they just comes to accept it as inevitable.
375	* ShroudedInMyth: Elreed and every villain speaks of the endless evil things he has done.
376	* ShutUpHannibal: Has this done to him by Sabson at the start of the game's conclusion.
377	* SNKBoss: Final boss Doubt has some pretty cheap attacks and strategies.
378	* SoreLoser: Implied to be this if you beat him at his favorite board game, Chutes & Ladders, according to his Base of Darkness quotes.
379	* SupernaturalGoldEyes / YellowEyesOfSneakiness
380	* VillainTeleportation: Uses this to disappear from sight or to flee.

When a Wishmere named Locke is driven to insanity due to Doubt's magic and battles, then mercifully killed, Safford is broken by his failure and the pain and loss of a young life. Driven to vengeance, he awaits for Doubt's revival and seeks him out on his own, looking to avenge Locke.
391
392	->Safford [[spoiler: is killed in battle with Doubt and reanimated as Doubt's follower and mole, providing him information as Elreed chooses and trains the Wishmere with Safford. Safford provides the location of the Nexus to Doubt, where Doubt and Kyoko storm the headquarters and cause chaos. Feigning to be distraught by Elreed's death, Safford fades into the background and lets the Wishmere battle Doubt.]]
393
394	->[[spoiler: Safford reemerges and shows his true colors when Doubt summons him to do battle against Earle, but an interfering and returning Duu Shen forces Safford to battle him. Beaten by Duu Shen and with his master killed, Safford mocks the Wishmere for not ending his life and flees, telling them that they will have to look over their shoulder for him.]]

402	* TheComicallySerious: Only in Tutorial Mode, but man, does he go into this 100%.

410	* MyGreatestFailure: Immensely traumatised by the death of Locke, a Wishmere one generation ago, who was driven insane from Doubt's dark magic, then died.

412	* TheRival: Doubt is his rival.
413	* SensitiveGuyAndManlyMan: Appears to be the manly man to Elreed's fatherly sensitive guy.
414	* StraightMan: Doesn't joke, get jokes or like jokes.
415	* TheStoic: Let's Elreed do the talking, unless asked to speak. He's perfectly fine with just standing there looking intimidating.
416	* SupportingLeader
417	* SwordPlant: At the end of the game.
418	* UndyingLoyalty: To Elreed. He's served him for centuries and never questions his intentions. [[spoiler: Tragically, when he is killed and reincarnated by Doubt, he does this to Doubt in his new life too, to the point of betraying the man and mission he's been serving for centuries.]]
419	* YesMan: Goes well with his UndyingLoyalty.

426
427	->The God of Dreams and the TeamDad of the team. He has been battling Doubt for centuries, but after being cursed by Demon Curses, Doubt's spell, Elreed's strength and power is sapped tremendously. Forced to conserve his energy and only use it to imbue teenagers and christen them as Wishmere, Elreed wages the war from the sidelines.
428
429	->Elreed saves the students of Hazelroad High when Doubt returns from death and brings them to the Nexus. He imbues them as Wishmere and guides them through their battles with Doubt.
430
431	->When Doubt attacks the Nexus, once thought to be a secret location, Elreed is bested by Kyoko and then saved by Sabson. In the chaos of battle, [[spoiler: Doubt casts a Demon Curse one more time on Elreed, ending his life and sending him into Stasis. With Doubt's defeat and Elreed's death, the Wishmere in this game end up being the last Wishmere in existence.]]

440	* IntergenerationalFriendship: With his Wishmere.
441	* MissionControl: Serves as this to the Wishmere, who go out into the field. Elreed himself is never present in the field for hidden reasons. [[spoiler: It's revealed that he's dying]].
442	* MysticalWhiteHair: Sure he's old. But he's also the God of Dreams.
443	* RedBaron: Known as the God of Dreams.
444	* SecretlyDying: [[spoiler: He has been cursed by Doubt's Demon Curse, and it has severely sapped him of his strength, health and his powers. He only has enough power to create Wishmere every few years.]]
445	* TeamDad
446	* WhatTheHellHero: Can be seen as this, as he kept the secret of Doubt's constant revival from the team, selectively hid the fact that he knew Earle's father and that he was killed in battle with Doubt on his ''second'' stint as a Wishmere when his powers had subsided many years ago, and kept the identity of the Chosen One until he was pressured to reveal it.
