Zak/At-Zako
Race: Human/ Joon
The protagonist of Evil Islands: Curse of the Lost Soul. He wakes up on an unknown land, with a metal knife in his hand and no memory. He wishes to find out who he really is. In fact, he is At-Zako, a young Joon hunted by the Curse.- Anti-Hero: Zak has nothing against killing innocent people, such as slaves and miners.
- Back Stab: He has to take out lots of enemies this way. Backstab is his initial skill.

- Tomato in the Mirror: It's eventually revealed that Zak's identity is that of the mysterious Joon he's been looking for during the Suslanger arc.
- The Chosen One: He becomes this to the villagers...

- Walking the Earth: That's what At-Zako and Lu-a-Jalla do during Lost In Astral.
Erfar the Silvertongue

- The Bus Came Back: Disappeared after escaping from the village. Came back at the end of the Suslanger arc.
- Chronic Backstabbing Disorder: He betrays Zak twice.
- Fat Bastard: Has a large belly.
- Large Ham: In every line. No wonder why they call him Silvertongue.
- Mole in Charge: He's the village's Elder.
- Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: Zak would have never found out how to get to the portal and activate it if Erfar hadn't told him to stall him until guards arrive.
- Paper-Thin Disguise: It's obvious for the player that Brother Faceless is Erfar after hearing his voice.
- Secretly Wealthy: According to Bor the Sly from Lost In Astral, Erfar had left so much money in the village that literally everyone on Gipath took some of it, which caused Babur to make all prices higher.
- Talker and Doer: He is the Talker, Gort is the Doer.
- Walking Spoiler: It's difficult to talk about him without revealing his part in the story.
Babur the Tightfist
Race: Human
The village's greedy Craftsman.- Bunny-Ears Lawyer: Despite his angry and rude attitude, Zak and all villagers still trade with him.
- Greed: His main weakness. Zak exploits it. It almost made him an ogre's food in Lost In Astral.
- Jerk with a Heart of Gold: After Zak found the proof that Erfar was trying to kill him, Babur became much friendlier to Zak. In Lost In Astral, he claimed that Zak was his friend. He also kept Zak's bronze knife until Rivar and Khador put it in the ruins in order to worship the Chosen.
- No Hero Discount: At first he doesn't even wish to speak to Zak. Even after Zak helped him, he still doesn't wish to give the Chosen anything for free.

Race: Human
The village's Captain.- The Dragon: He is one to Erfar.
- Dumb Muscle: He's much dumber than Zak, Erfar and Babur.
- Hidden Depths: Despite being dumb, he can at least write letters in the Orc language.
- Luke Nounverber
- Too Dumb to Live: Perhaps if Gort had told Zak about Erfar's involvement instead of just running away, Zak would have spared him.
Khador the Rowdy
Race: Human
The village's warrior. Zak can take him as a companion.- Dumb Muscle: He doesn't sound smart.

Naya the Secretive
Race: Human
Estera's apprentice and Zak's possible companion.- Foreshadowing: In her goodbye dialogue, she says she sees Zak's future, but it is not death. She could refer to Zak's true identity.

- Ms. Fanservice: Her initial outfit is too revealing.
- Playing with Fire: She has a few fire spells.
Rivar the Hulk

The strong villager that becomes the village's Captain after Gort's betrayal. After Zak left Gipath, he became the next Elder.- Dumb Muscle: That's a possible reason why Erfar made him a new Captain.
- It Runs in the Family: All men in Rivar's family were very strong due to some family secret. Rivar gives this gift to Zak as well.

Rint the Archer
Race: Human
The village's best archer and Zak's potential companion.- The Ace: He's the best at archery in the village.

Old Dragon
Race: Dragon
The owner of the Dead City.- Appeal to Tradition: The dragon spared Zak only because he follows some traditions.
- Dragons Prefer Princesses: One of his traditional challenges includes saving a girl. However, when Zak arrived, there were no girls in the Dead City. Averted in Lost In Astral. This time he has a female captive, but she's too old to be a girl, and he wants her to leave.

- Four Eyes, Zero Soul: That's probably obligatory for Khadaganian officials.
- He Knows Too Much: Lost in Astral reveals that after Zak left Gipath, this official stayed with Estera, but escaped later. Kir vows to kill him just because he was a part of the failed Khadaganian expedition, and Kir had already sent a fake report about the expedition members being alive and well to Suslanger.

Expedition commander
Race: Human
