    Owen 

Voiced by: Wataru Hatano

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/owen_a.png
Rarity: SR
Element: Water
Style: Balanced
Weapon Specialty: Sabre
Charge Attack: Mirage Blade

Anne's bodyguard and a fellow student at the Mysteria Academy for Magic.


  • Boring, but Practical: Owen's kit is absurdly simple, but that's part of the reason it works well. He has a simple 100% double attack passive, and his actives are all exactly one buff each and nothing else - he gains echo damage, he gains HP drain on hit, and he gains more attack with high HP. And you time his CA right to extend his buffs. That's it, that's the totality of his kit. And yet its simplicity is part of what makes him so effective.
  • Cool Sword: As a knight who studies in Mysteria, Owen can infuse his sword with magic.
  • Early-Bird Cameo: Anne and Owen appeared as the playable party in a chapter of the "Lonesome Dragoness" event even before their gacha versions were released.
  • Innocently Insensitive: When Anne gets her swimsuit stolen in the beach, Owen casually offers to watch over her by himself since he is Anne's bodyguard. He says this despite the fact that Anne is accidentally naked and embarrassed in front of him.
  • Lady and Knight: The Knight to Anne's Lady.
  • Mistaken for Romance: When William catches sight of Hanna and Owen talking, he interrupts to ask what Owen thinks of her. He responds by saying that he finds her attitude pleasing. William then gets the wrong message that Owen likes Hanna romantically.
  • No Shirt, Long Jacket: Wears nothing on top but a jacket (exposing his chest) in his beach outfit as seen in Grea's Summer episode.
  • Ship Tease: In his Fate Episode, Hanna brings up Owen's "relationship" with Anne when she sees him spying over Anne and Grea.
    Hanna: Aha! So you would've been the one in charge of cheering Anne up then.
    Owen: Mm-hm. It's my duty to support her not just physically, but mentally and emotionally.
    Hanna: Scandalous! Tell me, tell me! Did anything... blossom between you two? Aah.. It's like a fairy tale of love...
  • Weak, but Skilled: From a gameplay perspective, Owen is one of the few characters to have the lowest maximum base attack (if not the only one). However, he makes up for it by having a near-perfect kit that has excellent synergy with late-game, Stamina-centric Water builds. He can cast two offensive buffs and one that acts as a life-steal, keeping him alive, if not topped up for damage. While the duration of the buffs are considerable already, his Charge Attack extends them by two turns. The best part of his kit? A guaranteed double-attack per turn, allowing him to deal higher amounts of damage than those who rely on supports for multi-attack buffs. All of these traits have placed Owen high on character tier lists, and he can even find use ahead of some SSR attackers.

Sharp-eyed Duke
SR Version
Rarity: SR, SSR
Element: Earth
Style: Defense
Weapon Specialty: Sabre
Charge Attack: Trionfo Canzone, Canto dell'Alba (SSR ver.)

Introduced in the event "So Close, Yet So Far" based off of Shakespeare's play, Romeo & Juliet. He is a count of a nation that is allied with the Capulets. He is arranged to marry Juliet, and commands the Capulet Army. He becomes a playable character during the event, "By Any Other Name".


  • Gratuitous Italian: His skills and charge attack are in Italian.
  • Implausible Fencing Powers: His Charge Attack in a nutshell.
  • The Rival: He's obviously a rival of Juliet's love to Romeo in "So Close, Yet So Far", though most people know that he will lose in this aspect. His rival status is played up much more in "By Any Other Name".
  • Royal Rapier: He wields a rapier as a playable unit, being a noble and almost the heir to the Capulets, it's quite fitting.

The Star of Phantagrande
Event Version
Summer Version
Rarity: SR, SSR
Element: Water, Earth (SSR)
Style: Defense, Attack (SSR
Weapon Specialty: Gun, Gun+Melee (Summer ver., SSR)
Charge Attack: Colorful Barrage, Ultimate Colorful Special (SSR)

Phantagrande's Cutest Penguin! Actually a quirky girl with a knack for inventions, but her penguin-themed robot suit has become the idol of children everywhere in the skydom.


  • Animal Motifs: Obviously tigers. Just kidding, it's penguins.
  • Boobs-and-Butt Pose: In her event version's uncap art, when Pengy comes out of that suit.
  • Bungling Inventor: A gimmick with both versions of her is that her third skill has powerful effects, but also a random chance of violently exploding instead.
  • Ditzy Genius: She is quite the skilled engineer, but her ideas on what to do are... special to say the least. Rackham has a hard time with her because while she does help him with the Grandcypher's maintenance, she keeps trying to add goofy stuff to the system and drawing funny faces on the ship.
  • Friend to All Children: She loves them as much as they love her.
  • Genki Girl: A bottomless pit of pure energy.
  • Goggles Do Nothing: The googles are mostly just on her head.
  • Leaning on the Fourth Wall: Pengy will occasionally look at the player during the Idle Animations of her Summer version, alternating between wearing and taking off her costume's sunglasses. But this only works after the player has at least clicked on her portrait (regardless of whether or not a skill has been used).
  • Legacy Character: She's actually the second Pengy. Her adoptive father was an engineer who was the first to build a superpowered penguin suit and become the world's goofiest superhero, until his untimely death saving an entire airship from crashing. After grieving his passing, she eventually mustered the courage to follow in his footsteps, and built a new Pengy to once again bring smiles and happiness to the world.
  • Meta Mecha: The Pengnormous Pengy turns out to be a Combining Mecha that ends in the Pengy suit piloting another, much larger suit.
  • Oh, My Gods!: One of the skills she is notable for is named "Oh My Bahamut!". Which is rather fitting for the trope, since Bahamut is considered as the top god in the world of Granblue.
  • Only Known by Their Nickname: Her first name is Iris. As far as we know, the last person to call her that was her father, and he died ten years ago.
  • Pokémon Speak: She only speaks "Pegupegu" when wearing her costume, as part of the character.
  • Powered Armor: What her beloved penguin costume essentially is, though it is a very cartoony version full of things like boxing gloves on springs or cannons that shoot water balloons.
  • Spell My Name With An S: Pengy's name is incorrectly spelled as Pengi in the Journal.
  • Walking Swimsuit Scene: Or Leotard of Power, depending on the version. It's mostly to get some breathing room: according to her, it gets absurdly hot in the suit, and she sometimes comes out of it covered in ridiculous amounts of sweat.

    Percival 

Percival Wales

Voiced by: Ryōta Ōsaka (Japanese), Anthony Sitoy (English, Versus), Mark Whitten (English, Versus Rising)

I am the Lord of Flames, Percival. Together, we shall create an ideal country. Come!
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/grand_percival.png
Lord of Flames
Premium Draw Fire Version
Event Version
Summer Version
Light Version
Rarity: SR (Event), SSR (Gacha/Summer)
Element: Fire, Light
Style: Attack, Balanced (Summer, Light version)
Weapon Specialty: Sabre
Charge Attack: Lohenwolf, Edelflamme (Light version), Stolze Flamme (Grand Version)

One of the Dragon Knights, along with Siegfried, Lancelot and Vane. A heir to a noble house from a country neighbouring Feendrache, he set out on a journey to properly understand what makes someone a good ruler of their nation. As of the "Divergent Knighthoods" event, it is revealed that he is the vice-captain of the reinstated Order of the Black Dragon.


  • Advertised Extra: Event teasers for "The Other Side of the Sky" feature Percival's "Boss of my Heart" outfit, suggesting as though he would play an important role and serve as the event's featured character. Nope, Percival only get a few moments in the event, while the limelight actually goes to Tsubasa.
  • Ambiguously Bi: Nothing is ever put in concrete, but he's heavily implied to be in love with the player character, either male or female. Siegfried seems to think so, at least, and says in an aside that Percival "needs to figure his feelings out for himself."
  • Balance Buff: Cygames reworked his skillset in June 9th and gave him more utility as a Hellfire Crest bot and buffs his Delay effect in his Petrify skill so it has more use.
  • Big Brother Worship: He has nothing but the utmost respect and admiration for his two older brothers. He believed in Aglovale even when the latter sought to summon the Otherworld, and Lamorak being on opposing forces to Wales doesn't lessen his respect.
  • Blue Blood: His second fate episode and the Four Knights of a Fallen Land event reveal that he's the heir to a powerful noble house from a kingdom neighboring Feendrache. May possibly be Royal Blood; it's a little ambiguous in the text but they send troops to Feendrache in an attempt to capitalize on a coup attempt that they were directly involved in, and have been using dark magic to conquer many other kingdoms.
  • Boring, but Practical: Prior of his rework, Percival's only utility is an attacker that buffs himself through Strength status effects and bonus fire damage, while also occasionally inflicts petrified, but his numbers are really high thanks to his support skills boosting his already high numbers to the wazoo if he got a fire attack up buffs and slight increase of overall damage output depending on how many allies active in the frontlines. Combined with having no real drawbacks, the original SSR Percival becomes the highest-rated contender among other Dragon Knights and is very powerful regardless of any battle you put him in, until Fire Siegfried and 5★ Vane dethrones his position. He's finally got reworked in June 9th alongside several characters.
  • Breakout Character: Even alongside the Dragon Knights, he is the most popular of the four and consistently topped popularity polls as one of the most popular male units in the entire game...that is, until Sandalphon came along and officially unseated him after becoming playable.
  • Call-Back: His second Christmas line and second birthday line double as this to each other. Where in his Christmas line, Percival gets sick and Gran/Djeeta volunteers to take care of him while missing out the festivities, the birthday line has it that it's Gran/Djeeta's turn to get sick and Percival took care of them as a result.
  • Coat Over the Shoulder: He carries his coat this way in his Event version's artwork.
  • A Day in the Limelight: He, as well as his brothers Aglovale and Lamorak, are the main focus of the To Each His Ideal story event.
  • Early-Bird Cameo: In the Souken no Kizuna manga, Percival appears in one of Lancelot's brief flashbacks to his days in the Order of the Black Dragons. He is properly introduced several chapters later, which adapts his first Fate episode to explain how Gran and Lyria meet him between the "Defender's Oath" and "Four Knights of a Fallen Land" arcs.
  • Fiery Redhead: Not as outwardly short-tempered as many examples (except when Vane is around) but otherwise fits the bill.
  • Funny Background Event: His Summer Version's Uncap Art shows Lancelot and Vane playing beach volleyball behind him.
  • Gratuitous German: His skill and charge attack names are in German.
  • Hair Flip: In her summer version's artwork, Percival combs his hair up with his hand.
  • I Choose to Stay: In his SR version's second Fate Episode. He's given the offer to rule Wales together with Aglovale, but he chooses to stay with the crew.
  • Japanese Delinquents: In The Other Side of the Sky, Lyria imagines a scenario of Percival becoming this, complete with a new outfit, his sword being replaced with a bamboo stick, and all his skill names thematically changed.
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: It's pointed out several times across the fate episodes for both versions that despite attempting to be standoffish and let people sort out their own problems Percival can't resist helping people, even if he does tend to be extremely blunt with his advice.
  • Mundane Utility: In Grand Blues! Comic #428, Percival uses his flaming sword for acupuncture therapy.
  • Mythology Gag: Percival appears in his summer outfit in the 13th episode of the anime. For his short screen time, he simply sleeps with arms on head, similar to his Summer version's uncap artwork. Additionally, Vane and Lancelot are near the volleyball net, albeit having different poses compared to the aforementioned artwork.
  • No Shirt, Long Jacket: This is basically just his summer attire, exposing his chest in the beach.
  • Odd Friendship: This is how Lancelot sees Percival's friendship with the Captain in one of his lines on the Between Frost and Flame event page. Percival is part of the crew, but the Captain and, by extension, Vyrn and Lyria, are also his retainers.
  • Oddly Shaped Sword: Percival wields a decorated flamberge for all incarnations of his character. It's not clear whether it's linked to his flame powers, but it certainly looks the part.
  • Playing with Fire: He's incredibly adept with the manipulation of fire as shown in his introductory fate episode when he burns the entire border gate and the bandits blocking his way to a crisp.
  • The Power of Friendship: His second passive skill gives him passive buffs which increase based on the number of party members fighting alongside him.
  • Real Men Hate Sugar: Percival states he is not fond of sweets in his Valentine Day lines, but he makes an exception for the Captain's chocolates due to his initial rejection saddening them.
  • Red Baron: He holds the title of "Lord of Flames".
  • Red Is Heroic: His quest revolves around knowing what it takes to be a good ruler, and among the four Dragon Knights, Percival has the red color motif and with accompanying flame-based powers.
  • Sheltered Aristocrat: Downplayed, but the Slice of Summer event shows him to be somewhat bewildered by rather commonplace things, such as an onion making him cry, or Lunalu getting flustered around him.
  • Ship Tease: Percival has hints of this with the Captain in the Between Frost and Flame event. The event story highlights how much influence Percival's friendship with the hero has affected him. Siegfried and Vane even commented such in the event page with the former mentioning how the hero plays a pivotal role in Percival's personal development and the latter mentioning that Percival looks at the hero quiet differently.
    • Even before that, there is quite a bit in his summer SSR version where, in his second fate episode, he mentions how he can see no other person fitting to be his right hand man other than the Captain. Their response is to run out of the room, all while blushing at Percival's declaration.
    • Amped up at the final uncap fate episode, as a nod to his summer SSR version and the events of Between Frost and Flame, he calls the Captain the strongest right hand he could have and his lines during the fight with Aglovale in said fate episode shows how much he now fully trusts them.
  • Sibling Yin-Yang: He is hot-headed in contrast to Aglovale who is cool-headed. It also reflects in their elements that Aglovale's element is water to Percival's fire.
  • The Spock: To Lancelot's Kirk, and Vane's McCoy. Percival is goal-oriented, approaches everything strategically, and feels that allowing oneself to be influenced by passionate, heat of the moment emotion is a sign of incompetence.
  • Supernatural Fear Inducer: He is one of the few playable characters who can inflict the "Fear" status ailment on enemies.
  • Technicolor Blade: His weapon's blade is red, but can glow orange when aflame.
  • Theme Naming: He and his brothers (Aglovale and Lamorak) are named after figures in Arthurian Legend.
  • Trademark Favourite Food: Strawberries. According to the tie-in event for the Granblue TCG, he makes a point of seeking out the best strawberries when travelling to a new region, something he appears to be rather embarrassed by.
  • Vitriolic Best Buds: With Vane and Lancelot; the three of them were part of the Order of the Black Dragon under Siegfried before it disbanded and Percival set out on his travels.
    • His friendship with Vane in particular is especially vitriolic. Percival thinks Vane is grating, talks too much, and is far too scatter-brained and emotional to be trusted with authority.
  • Walking Shirtless Scene: His summer version.

    Petra 

Voiced by: Houko Kuwashima

We wind shamans... We can hear the words of the wind spirits...
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/petrassr_a.png
Celestial Phenomenon of Wind
R Version
Rarity: R, SSR
Element: Wind
Style: Heal (R), Balanced (SSR)
Weapon Specialty: Staff
Charge Attack: Wind Cross (R), Oblivion of the Winds (SSR)

Her R variant is a somewhat clumsy wind shaman in training. She wants to leave the village and travel the world, but it goes against wind shaman law. However, the elder, after much reluctance, realizes she'd learn more if she traveled the world so he lets her go, joining the crew. SSR Petra is a fully realized and competent wind shaman. As of her SSR Fate Episodes, her staff hosts the Celestial Wind Spirit.


  • Balance Buff: Petra received a significant rework in March 2022. Her charge attack's critical rate buff was increased in potency. Her first skill now grants Mirror Image to the whole party, and gets a 2 turn reduction to its cooldown when the enemy uses a special attack. Her second skill was changed to only deal Wind damage, instantly fills her charge bar, and automatically activates when the enemy uses a special attack. Her third skill was reworked to now only buff Wind ATK, and grants the Keen buff as well. She also grants a passive buff to Wind ATK and multi-attack rate to any ally with Mirror Image. Her EMP passive was also completely reworked; rather than granting additional Wind ATK based off of other element ATK buffs, it was changed to reduce Petra's skill cooldowns by one turn whenever she uses her charge attack. All of these combine to make Petra a lot more viable and versatile in Wind teams. Not bad for an early release SSR unit without a fifth uncap!
  • Comes Great Responsibility: She has control over the weather and Celestial Wind Spirit. This becomes apparent in her SSR version.
  • Elemental Powers: She has power over the wind, and weather. Though she is primarily wind in gameplay and lore, she has some control of other elements. Before her Balance Buff, Celestial Phenomenon, one of her SSR skills, dealt Wind, Fire, Earth, and Water damage. One of her other SSR skills, Elemental Breath, increased Wind, Fire, Earth, and Water damage for the whole party.
  • Exposed to the Elements: Her SSR version is more exposed to the wind.
  • Guardian Entity: The Celestial Wind Spirit.
  • Heroic Lineage: Her mother was the wind shaman before her. Her mother also sealed the Celestial Wind Spirit. At the end of her SSR Fate Episode, the elder tells more of her mother's feats. Including how she got the help of the Celestial Wind Spirit, weather prediction, and weather control. Even calling her a borderline "Goddess".
  • Legacy of the Chosen: She's the current Wind Shaman of her village.
  • Like Father, Like Son: Petra takes after her mother as the wind shaman.
  • Missing Mom: In her SSR Fate Episode, Petra mentions she wants to tell her mother['s grave], about her new found resolve.The elder tells Petra her mom left to go on a journey to figure out what caused the "Night of the Black Mist". He also tells Petra her mother could possibly be alive. However, he doesn't know for sure.
  • Sealed Evil in a Can: In her SSR Fate Episodes, soldiers break the crystal with the Celestial Wind Spirit sealed in it, releasing it. However, she quickly seals the Celestial Wind Spirit in her staff.
  • Stop Worshipping Me: She gets frustrated with how villagers treat her as a goddess after seeing her control the weather and even tries to get Vyrn and Lyria to help her flee a banquet in honor of her.
  • White Mage: Her R skill Wind's Solace, heals allies. Her SSR Support Skill, "Breeze of Rest", passively heals her allies every turn. She also dresses in white.
  • Wind Is Green: Her skills and the Celestial Wind Spirit are green.

A Duet of Regulation and Freedom
Rarity: SSR
Element: Fire
Style: Attack
Weapon Specialty: Melee
Charge Attack: Mind-Blowing Meltdown

An Accordant for the syndicate Navis and the wielder of the Crimson Finger. Appearing first in SSR Feather and Fiorito's Fate Episodes, he serves as the boss for the Marionette Stars event.

He later joins the crew of the Grandcypher after the events of Unbound Asterism.


  • Abusive Parents: Since he has zero talent for magic, his father physically assaults him for his lack of aptitude and his mother heals his wounds just so the punishment sinks in and have his father beat him harder.
    • Ferdinand at the end of the event becomes one of these when he casually revealed he was just using Ragazzo, who looks up to Ferdinand as the parent he desired to have, just so he can take the harmonized Crimson Finger from him. Which Ferdinand does by stabbing him repeatedly and cutting off the arm with the Crimson Finger attached to. Not to mention, it was revealed that Ferdinand was also the one who manipulated his parents into abusing him in the first place.
  • An Arm and a Leg: Ferdinand at the end of the Marionette Stars event stabs an exhausted Ragazzo and steals the Crimson Finger from him with his arm attached to him.
  • The Chosen One: He was chosen to be the Auditor of the Crimson Finger. In fact, Ferdinand orchestrated his entire backstory just so that this could be the case.
  • Convenient Coma: In a way. After the number Ferdinand had done on him, the coma he falls into to recovery from his injuries is justified, but it also serves as a way to keep him out of the story for a while without killing him off.
  • Expy: He's very much one for the Evoker Nier, right down to the abusive childhood, the abusive parents, and him resorting to stealing a forbidden item to prove his worth only for his parents to beat him to an inch of his life for the trouble it'll cause to their family, which resorted to him brutally murdering his family.
  • Genius Bruiser: The man knows how to fight with precision but he also an avid bookreader and was once a scholar as a child.
  • Hot-Blooded: He's very quick to anger and eager to engage in combat with his foes.
  • I Just Want to Be Loved: What he really desires in the end. For all that's worth, he gets it from Ferdinand and the guy treats him with kindness in return. Until it turns out that Ferdinand was only using him to ascend the Crimson Finger and him showing kindness to Ragazzo was only him preying on his need for love.
  • Jerkass: So much so that if it weren't for his Freudian Excuse of a backstory it would be very difficult to be joyful about his surviving at the end of "Marionette Stars".
  • One-Winged Angel: He transforms into Kindred Demon Binder, a demonic humanoid abomination, in his final stand against Feather who had been empowered by the Lion Khan Claw. Little did he know that this is exactly what Ferdinand wanted.
  • Self-Made Orphan: He killed his parents using the Crimson Finger power.
  • Significant Name Shift: Back in the Navis, Fiorito calls him Ace. She drops the name after the two completed their defection to the Grandcypher.
  • The Unfavorite: Having no magical aptitude and repeated failures led to being this for his parents.
  • Unwitting Pawn: Ferdinand has been manipulating every about him since he was a child even, as Ferdinand revealed that his backstory was orchestrated by him to have him one day ascend the Crimson Finger.
  • "Well Done, Son" Guy: After his abusive upbringing with his real parents, his mentality is warped so that he only had any desire to prove himself to his adoptive father Ferdinand. Even as Ferdinand stabs him to near death and severs his hand at the wrist, he wants to be pat on the head and told he's done his best by him.

    Randall

Contagious Passion

R Version
Rarity: R, SR, SSR
Element: Water, Dark (SR version), Wind (SSR version)
Style: Attack
Weapon Specialty: Melee
Charge Attack: Fierce Kick, Aerial Assault Kick (SR version), Cyclone Kick (SSR version).

Randall, a young man and a close friend/rival of Feather who puts dedication into training. He specializes in kicks, contrasting Feather's punches, and hopes that they may be able to fight each other again after going on their separate ways years ago. He initially challenges the captain to a duel upon easily mistaking them as the closest friends of his rival. Even if the crew, didn't ask him to come, Randall insisted on joining aboard the Grandcypher. He is the Accordant for the Horoscope weapon; Joyeuse.

He later got an SR version on January 2018, which continues his backstory. He also stars as one of the guest characters in A Thousand Reasons, along with his ultimate rival Feather, and other melee combatants. By the time of the Marionette Stars event in 2021, he finally receives a SSR version in the regular gacha pool.


  • Always Someone Better: Soriz, in his SR fate episode. Asides Feather, Soriz is the one person that he wants to beat.
  • Armed Legs: To contrast the fisticuffs style of Feather. Taken up a level in his SSR version when the Joyeuse, a sword, reacted to his desire and taken the form of greaves on his right leg.
  • Badass Longcoat: Has a white-blue coat wrapped around his waist.
  • Berserk Button: Flies into a rage if he thinks he isn't being taken seriously. He gets extremely pissed when Feather runs off before their match in "A Thousand Reasons" and returns covered in injuries, as he believes Feather has been focused on every possible match save their own.
  • Crippling Overspecialization: His SR version has him being forced to shake this off with Soriz putting him through general strength training that enhances his entire body, which actually ends up making his kicks much stronger due to giving his body better balance.
  • Extremity Extremist: He focuses on kicks above all else. His fate episodes revealed that in his childhood, he used to fight with his fists but, seeing Feather made him realize he doesn't have the same passion for fighting with his fists like him so he focused on his legs instead.
  • Foil: Not only his style is the opposite of Feather's, their color scheme are basically opposites. Their SR versions play this even more with Feather being a Light character and Randall transitioned to a dark character for his SR version.
  • Friendly Rivalry: Goes way back with Feather, and their rivaly is only about knowing who's the stronger one in terms of close combat. The "A Thousand Reasons" event lampshades this, with the referee mentioning them as "frenemies since childhood".
  • I Am Not Left-Handed: Demonstrated in his SR version's Fate Episode. Since the previous champion is too focused on Randall's kicks and footwork, he didn't notice a punch coming from Randall. It's all due to Feather's advice that Randall should at least employ his fists.
  • Mistaken for Misogynist: In his match against Aliza in "A Thousand Reasons", he makes a comment that she's a good fighter, "for a woman." Aliza takes that he means women can't fight, but he quickly clarifies that he was referring to her shorter stature and apologizes that his comment came out the wrong way.
  • Natural Weapon: He won't pick up any wielded weapons, even if his opponent is forcing him to, so that their match would count as a fair fight.
    "My flesh is the ultimate weapon! I don't need anything else!"
  • Vitriolic Best Buds: With Feather, though Randall won't ever admit to being friends with him. Lampshaded in "A Thousand Reasons."
  • Worthy Opponent: That's how Feather looks at him.
  • You Remind Me of X: In his SR version's episode, Randall's punch reminded the previous champion of Soriz.

Rarity: R, SR, SSR
Element: Water, Dark (SR ver.), Wind (SSR ver.)
Style: Special
Weapon Specialty: Gun
Charge Attack: Joker Blast, The Lady Smiles on You (SR ver.), The Game's Over (SSR ver.)

A gambler with a high streak of luck when it comes to cards, but also one who experiences turmoil outside the game.


  • Badass Longcoat: A coat appears to be his favorite fashion sense in both of his versions.
  • Equivalent Exchange:
    • Richard believes that if too many good things happen to him without anything bad happening, his bad luck will continue to build up until something horrible happens in exchange for all of the good things. Even in his winning animation, he's sweating out of anxiousness, anticipating the next horrible thing.
    • This is shown in his second Fate Episode, where after he wins a big gamble he's so afraid of what might happen that he seeks out monsters or thugs to attack him and rebalance his luck. At the end of the episode, the player gives him a You Are Not Alone speech to let him know that even if bad things do happen to him, the crew will be there for him. He does still end up having his wallet stolen and get harassed by a dog to counteract his initial good fortune.
  • The Gambler: The player first meets him at a casino right after they were cheated in a card game for owing a million Rupies. Richard beats the card shark in an instant but then has the player pay him back (admittedly much less than the initial debt).
  • Love at First Sight: Falls in love with Therese upon bumping at her in the streets during the "Festival of the Falling Flame" event. It happens yet again after he sees De La Fille at the event's ending.
  • The Magnificent: Others call him "Richard the Fortunate".
  • Plague of Good Fortune: As mentioned under Equivalent Exchange, he starts to get afraid if good things continually happen to him.
  • Pretty in Mink: He wears a furcoat in his R version.
  • Status Buff: Richard's R skills, Resist Draw and Wild Card, will either increase or decrease all allies' defense or attack stats respectively. Fitting in with his gambler theme, this whether it increases or decreases is totally random.
  • Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: He's really afraid of dogs.

Charge Attack: Familial Insanity, Schrecken Fist (5★ Upgrade)

A human-turned-zombie necromancer who originates from the Rage of Bahamut anime series.


  • Mythology Gag:
    • Leveling her to 90 unlocks the "Because I'm a Zombie" Trophy, named after her Catchphrase from the anime series.
    • Rita being classified as a Human (despite already being a zombie upon her debut in Granblue), and her permanent Zombified status at the start of the battle both references what happened to her in the anime - She was originally a human who was Zombified only when one of her minions bite her.
    • Rita's chant during her Familial Insanity Charge Attack is taken from a portion from the longer chant of the Black Bible, which she recites in the third episode of Rage of Bahamut: Genesis to control the zombies.
  • Rocket Punch: While her anime counterpart has her simply throwing or flinging her detachable arm at a target, in her 5★ art and Schrecken Fist Charge Attack, she makes a pose accompanied with special effects to invoke this trope, such as a trail of spark between the hand and the rest of the arm.

SR Version
Rarity: SR, SSR
Element: Water
Style: Balance
Weapon Specialty: Sabre, Sabre+Staff (SSR)
Charge Attack: Tragedy's End (SR), Alba di Verona (SSR), Sole di Verona (SSR 5★ Upgrade)

Introduced in the event "So Close, Yet So Far" based off of Shakespeare's play, Romeo & Juliet. Romeo is the heir to the Montague throne, and one night after meeting the crew, encounters his fated soulmate, Juliet.


  • Badass Cape: He gains one of these that doubles as a hooded cloak in "By Any Other Name" once he becomes Lord Montague. He keeps it for his SSR version.
  • Earn Your Happy Ending: He had to work for it across several events, but eventually was reunited with and married Juliet in the end. Definitely a better ending than the character of whom he shares his namesake with got.
  • Fate Worse than Death: In his SSR's first fate episode, while he escaped, Romeo wasn't allowed to meet Juliet for a long time in order to unite Verona with Paris taking his slashed sash as a trophy to signify it.
  • Final Boss: Of the sequel event, "By Any Other Name".
  • Gratuitous Italian: His skills and charge attack are named in Italian.
  • Guardian Entity: Gains one during the storyline of "By Any Other Name" and retains it as a playable character.
  • Happily Married: Marries Juliet at the conclusion of the Good Night Till It Be Morrow event. The fate episode for water-version Juliet follows their married life after the wedding.
  • Idiot Hair: There are strands of hair sticking out of his head.
  • Killed Off for Real: Is defeated by the party and ultimately killed by Paris in the finale of "By Any Other Name". Not that it stops him from continuing as a party member. Subverted in his SSR Fate episode when the MC parried Paris' blow and helped him escape.
  • Love at First Sight: Obviously, being based on the well-known Shakespeare play, this happens once he meets Juliet.
  • Official Couple: With Juliet. They even marry in the end.
  • Passing the Torch: In his second fate episode for his SSR, he took on the title of the mysterious playwright, Bill the bard in the old man's stead. Having met the man and him requesting Romeo to succeed his legacy.
  • Reverse Grip: His SR version's second attack is with reverse grip.
  • Single-Target Sexuality: He's never shown much of an interest in women (according to Mercutio), that is, until he locked eyes with Juliet for the first time. Even during the Valetine's Day event, Romeo sees the female player character's chocolates as more of a friendly gesture (to cheer him up about Juliet) rather than romantic.
  • Zero-Approval Gambit: When the Capulet and Montague nations show no sign of settling things peacefully, he intentionally sabotages the Montague state and makes himself look incompetent as a leader in order to facilitate the Capulets conquering the Montague half of the city, believing that the only way to end the division in Verona is for one side to be destroyed.

Yukata Version
Rarity: R, SR, SSR
Element: Light
Style: Balanced
Weapon Specialty: Sabre
Charge Attack: Imperial Card Dash (R), Card Ambush (SR), Talismaster (SSR), Talismancy: Radiant Strike (Yukata Version)

A young woman abducted by the Erste Empire at a young age for use as a test subject in the development of magical weapons. Rosamia was forced to wear the Curse Mask, a dangerous artifact that amplifies its wearer's strength at the cost of their sanity. She stole the mask and escaped, now intending to use the Empire's own weapon against them as she exacts bloody revenge.

One of the game's launch Rare characters, Rosamia received her SR version at the start of 2015, and her SSR version in July of 2016.


  • Aloof Dark-Haired Girl: Fits the trope to T, at least until she starts warming up the crew.
  • Ax-Crazy: When controlled by the mask.
  • Battle Ballgown: Her outfit is a mix of a dress and an armor.
  • The Comically Serious: In the "Big Bad Shadow" event, Rosamia is the only one who delivered a blunt message to Jin while the latter imagines the girls cheering on, or declaring their love to him. Nevertheless, Rosamia's seriousness is what Jin actually liked about her, while causing her to be creeped out more.
  • The Corruption: She's resisting the "bloodthirsty call" of the mask. By her SSR's second fate episode, she is completely controlled by it and the party must fight her.
  • Escaped from the Lab: The mask she wears was developed by the Erste Empire. She was a test subject who eventually escaped.
  • Gotta Kill Them All: She doesn't have a particular list, but she wants to exact revenge on the Erste Empire. Especially the main scientist. In her SSR Fate Episode, she kills him.
  • Mask of Power: The Curse Mask, a dangerous artifact that amplifies its wearer's strength at the cost of their sanity.
  • Not So Above It All: Appears cool and capable, but she recklessly rushes into her own danger.
  • Oddly Shaped Sword: She wields a saber in which the blade is made up of interconnected diamond-shaped razors.
  • Running Gag: "Rosamia! Wrong lines!" - In the early batch of Grand Blues! comics, Rosamia's facial expressions may contradict with the context of what she accidentally says. Others will call her out for it, for example in Comic #50, she tries to encourage Jin with a smile:
    Jin: I've had it with this cruel world! Don't try to stop me!
    Rosamia: What a crybaby... If he doesn't shut up soon, I'll gut him myself...
    Io: Rosamia! Wrong lines!
    Jin: I'm sorry, please don't hurt me.
  • "Shaggy Dog" Story: She assumes that her family was slaughtered by the Empire when she was first kidnapped, but in her R cross-fate episode with Walder, she learns that they could still be alive, though the Empire will be targeting them to tie up loose ends regarding the Cursed Mask. By the time of her SSR fate episode, they really have been killed.
    • This gets subverted in her SSR's second fate episode in which the mask actually makes her believe in her own lies in an attempt to take control of her (Rosamia had been fighting through the control with her own sheer willpower which the mask takes advantage of and eventually took control of her when she thought she had finally controlled it) and that they are actually alive with the protagonist asking a favor from Sierokarte and Eugen to find them.
  • Shout-Out: Her name and skybound art for her SR and SSR versions reference Gundam.
  • Superpowered Evil Side: The whole purpose of the Curse Mask. It grants its wearer incredible power, but overtakes their willpower and compels to never stop fighting. For her SSR version, this manifests in gameplay as a double edged buff which while enhancing her attacks, prevents her from being healed.
  • Took a Level in Badass: One of the few characters to have a version from all three character rarities (starting from R to SR, and finally to SSR). Her Fate Episode chain across her versions reflects this.

R Version
Rarity: R, SR
Element: Fire

Weapon Specialty: Gun
Charge Attack: Eat up, Kids!, Biscuit Brulee (SR ver.)

Rosine has been searching and waiting for her kidnapped husband for a very long time. But in the meantime, she's found a new family, taking care of them with her famous rice crackers. She joins the crew to have one more seach for him.


  • Accidental Misnaming: It is due to her age and hearing problems that she keeps on mishearing or incorrectly remembering names.
    • She misnames Lyria as "Lilian", Vyrn as "Vernon" and the dog Gaspar as "Mustang".
    • In Grand Blues! Comic #1027, she calls Godsworn Alexiel as Gigantes. Alexiel then has to slowly repeat her name close to Rosine's ear to help her remember. And in Comic #1029 when Lyria mentions "Egg Rice" when thinking about food, Rosine misnames Alexiel again as "Aleggxiel".
  • And the Adventure Continues: Her SR Fate Episodes end with her and her husband Florus parting ways once again so that he can finish his own adventures, with the hope that one day they'll reunite as skyfarers.
  • Charm Person: A Status Infliction Attack she learns at level 25 gives all of her rice crackers to an opponent and causes the Charm status. Its duration lasts longer the more crackers she used.
  • Cool Old Lady: She'll always try to cheer people up with her advice and a nice rice cracker.
  • Famed In-Story: She's the subject of a fairytale called Rosine's Rice Cracker, which tells of her searching for her disappeared husband and eventually finding happiness in making rice crackers that brought joy to the people who ate them.
  • Hero of Another Story: Her SR episodes reveal that her husband has been off on his own adventures. He was a highly-skilled physician who was kidnapped and forced to perform gruesome experiments combining living beings (including animals and Primal Beasts) and is now traveling to save those he experimented on.
  • I Want My Beloved to Be Happy: Since her husband Florus is still on the run and being hunted by the Primal Beast Research Agency, he declines Rosine's request of joining the crew for now, while making a promise until he completes his mission. Rosine understands that he did this to keep her and the Grandcypher crew from additional threats chasing their tail.
  • Improbable Weapon User: She attacks by flinging rice cracker batter at enemies.
  • Intergenerational Friendship: Rosine and Tsubasa in their Cross-Fate episode. The two naturally get along well and it is just in Tsubasa's kind-hearted nature to help the elderly. Then Rosine wants to experience the thrill of riding the bike, and she rewards Tsubasa with her senbei for complying with her request.
  • It's the Journey That Counts: Her second Fate Episode reveals that while she does want to see her husband again, she's having so much fun travelling with the player that she doesn't mind not finding him for the time being.
  • The Lost Lenore: Reports of someone that greatly resembles her missing husband are what motivated her to join the player. Her SR episode reveals that he is alive and well.
  • The Medic: She heals allies by feeding them rice crackers that are created each turn.
  • The Promise: Rosine is finally reunited with her husband Florus. But since he is on a different quest on his own, he separates and makes a promise to join Rosine and the Grandcypher crew in the future should he return successful on his mission.
  • Scatterbrained Senior: Sadly she has some mild dementia due to her age and often forgets Lyria and Vyrn's names. She mistakes Vaseraga for her husband in a Fate Episode due to some very thin similarities.
  • Unwitting Instigator of Doom: A downplayed version happens during the event, "Auld Lanxiety". As she sets off alone in the woods for an extended period of time, the villagers become worried and thus become vulnerable to the negativity being spread by the Joya. Inverted later when she fed and cured the entire village her famed rice crackers without her knowing about the Joya's poison, and giving Zooey an idea to stop it.

Charge Attack: Grommet Hatchet (R), Bruiser Axe (SR)

A former woodsman, Ryan is a young, hard-working mercenary who isn't exactly the best with words except when it comes to his dear sister.


  • Big Brother Instinct: He really wants to do his best for his sister, but she's a little exasperated at the lengths he goes to do so.
  • Commonality Connection: The Cross-Fate Episode of Lucius and Ryan allow them to talk about their younger sisters and compliment their traits, something that they are too shy to say in front of their siblings. Some of their gags in Grand Blues! also have them in a "Brothers Meet-up" playing paper dolls resembling their sisters.
  • Cuteness Proximity: Often times, cute things become his sole focus even during missions. At one point, he even swore revenge against the monsters for destroying a stuffed animal.
  • Real Men Wear Pink: He adores stuffed animals and would love to cuddle with Vyrn.
  • Spell My Name With An S: In his own Fate episodes, her sister's name is spelled as "Conlon". But in his cross-fate episode with Lucius, this becomes "Kunlun".
  • Scars are Forever: He has a permanent scar in his right cheek.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/3040514000_01.png
Rarity: SSR
Element: Earth
Style: Attack
Weapon Specialty: Sabre
Charge Attack: Beyond the Sun

The leading captain of the Kingdom of Radlith's knights.


  • The Alleged Boss: Sabrina doesn't care about the power the position of princess would bring since she already has power as a knight captain and the kingdom is still trying to adjust from their queen's death.
  • Breaking Old Trends: Notably, Sabrina comes with all of her skills unlocked when recruited, as her fate episode is stated to contain major spoilers from "Heart of the Sun", only being viewable once the event's ending has been unlocked.
  • Childhood Friend Romance: She's engaged to Radlith's first prince, Ceodric, which they've known each other since childhood. Subverted, however, as the second part of Heart of the Sun reveals that Ceodric was envious of her power and only proposed to Sabrina after the "Phoenix" suggested it as a way to control her, while Sabrina herself seems to only be going along with it because it's not the worst thing that could happen, calling into question how genuine the "romance" part is, or if it exists at all.
  • Death of Personality: Averted Trope. Though she recovered some of Farhana's memories, the core memories of her new incarnation, Sabrina, still remains.
  • Hero with Bad Publicity: A side effect of Sabrina killing Ceodric to avenge Fenie and due to the citizens of Radlith having little knowledge of Ceodric's true intentions and how he never actually loved Sabrina, she is villified by the people of Radlith for killing their beloved prince.
  • Love Makes You Dumb: Any romantic aspect with Ceodric causes Sabrina to devolve into a blushing mess, which doesn't help as Ceodric teases her about it at times. However, given the nature of their relationship, it's unclear whether the embarrassment actually comes from her own repressed feelings of love, or from the fact that Ceodric is publicly teasing her about an arrangement she's not entirely comfortable with. The Book of Phoenix seem to imply that its the latter, however.
  • No Good Deed Goes Unpunished: Sabrina is rewarded with banishment from Radlith after killing Ceodric, who was an utter bastard who completely deserved it due to killing Fenie. Tragically, this is because Ceodric was still a prince regardless of his actions throughout "Heart of the Sun," and banishment was easily the most merciful option that the King of Radlith could give to her even after Seofon told him about everything that had happened and what his son had done. Fortunately, she has the crew by her side.
  • Reincarnation: The third part of Heart of the Sun reveals that she is the reincarnation of Farhana, Abramelin's wife who died 6,000 years prior to the present.
  • Reincarnation Romance: She is the reincarnation of Abramelin's deceased wife Farhana, and it is strongly implied that she was attracted to him throughout the event, particularly after regaining memories of their previous relationship. However, he chooses to die at the end of the event in order to resurrect Fenie, separating them once more and forcing her to wait until he is reincarnated before they can be together again.
  • Say My Name: After Ceodric attacks them and fatally wounds Fenie, Sabrina angrily shouts his name right before stabbing him in retaliation.
  • Unskilled, but Strong: Seofon determines that she has a ways to go even after becoming knight captain and that it'd be wasted if she stepped down from it as Ceodric's wife, which itself is no small praise coming from the Star Sword Sovereign. Sabrina shows some of this strength when she cuts down one of Osiris's hounds in a single strike, surprising the Primal Beast. This potential is why Ceodric, who had no such talent, secretly envied Sabrina.
  • Young and in Charge: Ceodric notes she is rather young to have become Radlith's knight captain. When the Phoenix foresaw the future for Farhana, it says that as Sabrina, she will cross paths with Abramelin twenty-four years after her birth.

Pristess of the Dunes
Event Version
Summer Version
Light Version

Rarity: SR (Event, Summer), SSR (Earth, Light)
Element: Earth, Light
Style: Defense
Weapon Specialty: Melee
Charge Attack: Terra Ira (Event), Post-Trauma (Summer, Earth SSR), Terra Misericordia (Earth SSR 5★ Upgrade), Cor Fidelis (Light SSR)

A quiet girl from the desert island of Sable, who is under the protection of the sand god, Graphos. She was raised to be little more than a sacrifice to Graphos to keep it sealed, but instead Graphos has come to be her protector... which has led to her exile from her former home.

Originally introduced as an SR character in the Priestess of the Dunes event in early June 2014 (a few mere months after the game's release), she had the unfortunate distinction of being widely considered the worst-designed character the game had ever seen, a "tank" character with no way of actually defending others and a kit that made no sense, and even her art was considered lazy and poor quality. This led to her concept being extensively retooled for February 2015's story event and re-released as an SSR character... which transformed her into the most monstrous tank in the game, a position she holds to this day. She later got a Summer version in 2016 thanks to her newfound popularity and played a part in the "Slice of Summer" event.


  • All the Other Reindeer: After she survived a sealing ritual that took the life of all her predecessors, people started calling her cursed. Poor girl was already in bad physical condition at the time and it did not help at all. In contrast, she is overjoyed when traveling with the crew, as she finds out the inhabitants of most other islands are used to seeing weird things and don't mind Graphos beyond being relatively impressed.
  • Apologises a Lot: Does this when she lands the final blow on the enemy.
  • Balance Buff:
    • The poster child for the idea of a newer version of a character being released to comprehensively address shortcomings of a previous version. The original event Sara was a "tank" who had no way of directing aggression to herself, and suffered a huge attack tax in trade for her "sturdiness". She was tough, but she had nothing she could do with it as her teammates died around her. This made her virtually useless, especially in the game's early days when character selection was thinner. Her SSR version, meanwhile, has served as the gold standard for what a Granblue tank should be for years, with good aggro control, an excellent party damage cut and an ability that allows her to turn practically invincible in tandem with her aggro control. Even the art improved - her design was bland and uninspired in her event version and Graphos was just a vague, pointy, blocky sand thing, while the SSR version made her look far more like a priestess (and was better drawn in general) and turned Graphos into the Expy of Alexander he was clearly intended to be. This design would be the one that influenced her Summer version.
    • As an amusing side note, a character of the age and popularity of Sara's SSR version should typically be up for getting a fifth star uncap to level 100 and some additional skill updates; a number of characters released after her have already gotten them (like Silva and SSR Vira on this very page). She hasn't gotten further buffs because she's still so powerful as it is that any meaningful buffs on par with other 5★ upgrades would make her wildly overpowered. Ultimately she was powercrept by other tanks that were more flexible than hers, like Earth Satyr and Summer Alexiel, both being the powerhouse tank of the element thanks to having more utility than just tanking it out.
    • Sara finally receives her 5★ Uncap, which not only pushes her tanking powers even further, but also gaves her extra offensive edge and disruption power potentially even greater than Summer Alexiel and Earth Satyr. Though she still lacks their superior utility of the two (especially Earth Satyr's), she's much more viable as a frontliner compared to back before she was updated.
  • Dishing Out Dirt: Quite literally, since all her fighting is done by her sand guardian.
  • Fashionable Asymmetry: Her summer outfit has a thigh band only on her left leg.
  • Golem: Graphos evokes this kind of imagery, similar to the Golem depicted in Hebrew folklore - an entity made out of clay which acts to protect someone. The third skill of Sara's SSR version is also named "Emeth", drawing a parallelism to a version of the folklore golem which was given life after being inscribed with אֱמֶת or "emeth" in its forehead.
  • Guardian Entity: Graphos is with her at all times and protects her from all harm. The skills she has in all her versions are actually Graphos doing things, rather than her.
  • Guilt Complex: Has a pretty bad case of it and regularly blames herself for everything wrong around her.
  • The Kid with the Remote Control: Sara herself is a fairly harmless nine years old girl, if a very mature one. Graphos, on the other hand, is a giant sand castle with large fists and a fiercely protective streak.
  • Power Creep: After years sitting atop the "Earth tank" pile, Alexiel's release ended up hitting her pretty hard with this; Alex ultimately does everything Sara can do, but offers more offense and different kinds of utility.
  • Power Incontinence: Is afraid of this, as the permanent sealing of its opposite number Manawydan during the event means Graphos's power has increased a lot, and she fears it could go on a rampage if it goes too far. The excess power is also taking a certain toll on her health.
  • The Power of Rock: An odd example - ever since the release of her SSR version, she's been associated with harps and the weapons which unlock her SSR and Summer versions are harps she plays. However, the weapon she has affinity with is fist weapons - since her attacks are Graphos punching the daylights out of things, not her.
  • Precocious Crush: Implied to have a crush on Siegfried in his second Summer Fate episode.
  • Shrinking Violet: Very shy and quiet and has a hard time when thrust into the spotlight.
  • Stone Wall: Her SSR version is the absolute gold standard when it comes to tanks in Granblue, thanks to a party wide damage halving skill, a low-cooldown substitute skill and a 1000% defense self-buff. She's so strong that she sometimes finds use off-element, when people need a tank that badly.
  • Younger than She Looks: A side effect of the art update to her SSR version is that she looks closer to a young teen of 13-14 than her stated age of nine (it's the long, wavy, well-styled hair that really does it) whereas the original SR was, for all the art was bland, more recognizably the stated age. The battle sprites of the game being somewhat chibi, and thus rather normalized in height, making her seem not particularly shorter than most of her teammates, doesn't help. Her summer version, and the comparative (and surprising) boldness of her swimsuit, also doesn't help. Her Light version takes it to absolute extremes, and a new player who is first introduced to her via that version would be forgiven for thinking she's a particularly petite young adult.

Style: Attack, Defense (Summer version)
Weapon Specialty: Katana
Charge Attack: Sakura Shadowfall, Midsummer Wave (Summer version)


  • Crippling Overspecialization: Much like Fiorito, Shion's Tempura Flurry and Bonsai Style requires the player to make a katana-centered team as well as at least 5 fire katana weapons in their grid for her to be fully effective. A good amount of them can be farmed, but some others have to be gotten from the Premium Draw, and since that there aren’t really any good Magna fire katanas, you essentially have to make a Primal-styled grid for her to work well.
    • This also shows up in her Summer version, with her Charge Attack dealing 6 hits at most depending on how many katana-specialty allies are in the team, and her second skill's buffs lasting longernote  because of it.
  • Edible Theme Naming: Most of her skills are named after various Japanese foods.
  • Samurai: Far more devoted to the craft than Mirin is even though she once abandoned the craft after moving away. To her shock, Mirin stated that their home island have already considered samurai culture a thing of the past and Shion's memories of it are mainly because Mirin's family are obsessed with Eastern culture.

  • The Bus Came Back: She returns in Chapters 149-156 under the name Ruby Pop Irotis, which turns out to be a Sdrawkcab Name.
  • Freudian Slip: Shitori claims that she lost her memories before she came to the edgelands, yet she offered food to the crew and mentions that it came from her age. This simple statement convinced Rosetta that she was lying.
  • Happily Adopted: Mikaboshi found her as a baby and adopted her, and they lived happily together until the Astral was consumed by madness.
  • In the Hood: Subverted. Her outfit has a hood, but she doesn't keep it on.
  • Older Than They Look: Being sealed in the wall along with her mother stopped her aging. She's hundreds of years old by the time the Captain meets her.
  • Only Friend: Her Fates reveal that there was only a single woman in their village who was kind to her and didn't hate her for being an Astral's daughter.
  • Promoted to Playable: Becomes playable as of November 16, 2019.
  • Regretful Traitor: A heroic example Shitori was so remorseful over being complicit in sealing her mother away that she chose to be sealed alongside her as an act of penance. Even after the Wall was destroyed hundreds of years later she still hasn't stopped regretting it and curses herself for going through with it, even though it was necessary.
  • Time Abyss: Shitori was born before the War started.

A delinquent who has a rivalry with Tsubasa and son of Tandem Airborne Express's CEO. He serves as the antagonist of "The Other Side Of The Sky" event but later becomes the protagonist of the Showtime: Legend of the Blue Yonder event.


  • A Day in the Limelight: Is the main focus of the Showtime: Legend of the Blue Yonder event.
  • Car Fu: Like Tsubasa, Sho fights with his bike while in battle.
  • Gratuitous English: He tends to pepper his speech with this.
  • Green-Eyed Monster: He was jealous of Tsubasa who had many friends while he is alone for years after the accident caused by his father.
  • The Heavy: While the cause of the events come from an accident that costed the reputation of his father's company which heavily affected how Tsubasa and Sho grew up, it was Sho who pulled the strings of conflict throughout the event.
  • Licking the Blade: Sho licks the blade of his knife as he threatens to slit Vyrn's throat.
  • Never Bring a Knife to a Fist Fight: Sho brings out a knife after getting beaten up by Tsubasa's punches. But this trope is still in effect, as he loses anyway. Elmott even calls him out on this act.
    "Bringing knives to a fistfight is a real punk move."
  • Promoted to Playable: He becomes a recruitable SSR in the gacha come the Showtime: Legend of the Blue Yonder event.
  • Sins of Our Fathers: Was bullied heavily for this as a child due to the incident caused by his father's own Greed.

Aspiring Tactician
Rarity: SSR
Element: Water

Weapon Specialty: Spear
Charge Attack: Florescent Gale

A serious and upright military strategist who desperately wishes for the strength to protect those dear to her. Kind yet prone to an unwitting arrogance, she is strict both with others and herself, never ceasing to reflect on her own decisions for the sake of her country and its people.


  • Always Someone Better: Unwittingly was this to her younger sister Renfa, which frustrated her due constantly being compared to her more successful older sister and was one of the main reasons for her Face–Heel Turn.
  • Cain and Abel: Has this dynamic with her sister Renfa, who betrayed their home country of Sui after she was abducted by Luhua of Zilantos and willingly joined their ranks afterwards.
  • Cold-Blooded Torture: Suffered this at the hands of her own Sui countrymen when they discovered that her sister had betrayed them in their war against Zilantos.
  • Difficult, but Awesome: Shura's gimmick revolves around her second skill and Charge Attack, the former of which allows her to use a Charge Attack at all, and the latter causing her to lose 30% of her Charge Bar with every turn the buff it gives is active. To make matters worse, her Charge Bar fills up 50% slower, her third skill sacrifices half of her current amount of Charge Bar, and her first skill will outright drain it completely should it be used if she has at least 120% of her Charge Bar filled. However, if a player is able to ensure that she doesn't run out of Charge Bar after using her Charge Attack, they will be benefited with a monstrous attack buff and guaranteed Triple Attacks on every turn, and her passive amplifying damage to Fire enemies makes her hit even harder. One could even make these souped up autos hit even harder with Critical Hits, even more so if Summer Cagliostro is there to amp up said crits.
  • Good Is Not Soft: While she's good through and through and certainly felt bad about her sister's ordeals and feelings, this does not stop her from calling Renfa out on her hypocrisy after her Motive Rant, before knocking her unconscious with a blow to the solar plexus and capturing her.
  • Guilt Complex: Has a tendency to take on all of the responsibility for something and turning down help, along with solely blaming herself should things go wrong. This is something her sister Renfa detests about her, as Shura would always blame herself for her mistakes, whether it was her childish behavior in their youth or her Face–Heel Turn that doomed their home country of Sui, which only deepened her feelings of inferiority to her older sister. She does seem to be growing out of this after her Fate Episodes, when the Captain, Lyria, and Vyrn call her out on this and convince her to share her burdens with others more.
  • Lady of War: Employs many graceful flips and twirls while fighting, is beautiful and elegant, and has a calm and refined personality both on and off the battlefield.
  • Mechanically Unusual Fighter: The mechanics of her charge attack are very strange in that it does not require her to be at 100% Charge Bar; rather, she needs to activate her second skill and then she can use her Charge Attack. She is also one of the few characters that has a limit of 200% on her Charge Bar.
  • Ms. Fanservice: Possesses a beautiful face, buxom figure and a dress that leaves little to the imagination.
  • Revenge by Proxy: Was the victim of this when Sui learned that her own sister was the one who betrayed them to Zilantos, causing her own countrymen to torture her in their outrage.
  • Stripperific: Her getup has an Impossibly-Low Neckline, exposes one of her thighs, and even has some Sensual Spandex.
  • Shut Up, Hannibal!: Her response to Renfa voicing her frustrations about how Shura was always the better of the two and constantly compared to her only causes Shura to respond with how Renfa didn't try and better herself anyway despite being upset by the comparisons to her.
  • The Strategist: Serves in Erdeni's military as a tactician, and was formerly one of Altair's subordinates in the Sphirian army.

Dragonslayer
Unmasked
Yukata Version
Fire Version
Summer Version
Light Version
Rarity: SSR
Element: Earth, Wind (Yukata ver.), Fire, Water (Summer ver.), Light
Style: Special, Attack (Yukata ver. and Light ver.), Defense (Summer ver.)
Weapon Specialty: Sabre+Katana, Spear (Summer ver.)
Charge Attack: Schwarze Faenge, Schwarze Faenge ++ (Earth 5★ Upgrade), Gewaltfaenge (Fire version), Rauesee Faenge (Summer ver.), Groz Faenge (Light ver.)

One of the four Dragon Knights, alongside Vane, Percival, and Lancelot, and captain of the Order of the Black Dragon. Siegfried is quiet and reserved, preferring to keep to himself when off the battlefield.


  • The Ace: He's absurdly competent at nearly everything he does, to the point where he effectively resolves the first four Feendrache events just by himself.
  • A Day in the Limelight: He is the focus of the eponymous Siegfried event.
  • Badass in Distress: Gets captured by Gunther in the latter half of the event SIEGFRIED.
  • BFS: His sword is easily bigger than him, and even has a foothold on the blade to help him drive it in to larger targets.
  • Big Brother Instinct: Gets along well with Danua and Sara in his second Summer Fate episode. He encourages Danua even as their sandcastle keeps collapsing, and invites Sara to join them. He later takes them to the nearby festival and advises them on how to get the prize they want at the shooting booth. In fact, he is mistaken as their father by the man running the booth, though none of them particularly mind and the two girls even like it.
  • Boring, but Practical: Unlike some other earth attackers, there's nothing to keep track of and manage, just buff him and have him attack.
  • Chekhov's Gun: During the event, "Poacher's Day", he lectures and demonstrates to Lunalu the effects of salinity and temperature to a crab, forcing it to come out of its hole. This comes in handy later when Izmir and Tweyen freeze the ocean's surface, forcing the Queen Sea Urkin to relocate to a warmer area, as well as preventing Gizalugim from making it hatch prematurely.
  • Clear My Name: He has no interest in proving his own innocence, but his efforts to expose the truth behind Isabella's schemes and King Josef's death end up restoring his name.
  • Crazy-Prepared: In Grand Blues! Comic #1048, Siegfried installed windshield wipers on his helmet's visors, anticipating the moment when his fellow Dragon Knights and Team Chickadee splash paint on everyone's faces.
  • Expy: Of Guts. A fearsome Black Swordsman that is reviled by the general populace, wielding a massive blade specifically designed to slay giant monsters, who fought an entire army by himself, and fights with a wild, reckless style of swordsmanship. Especially evident when the visor of his helmet is lowered, making it look even more like the Berserker Armor, and his 5★ fate episode in which he appears to be possessed by a malevolent spirit.
  • Face of a Thug: His menacing black armor and quiet demeanor causes many people to regard him with suspicion and fear, even after he's cleared his name. A 4-koma strip in Grand Blues! even has him need to remove his mask just to shop.
  • Glass Cannon: His main attack buff has a defense down penalty, which will eventually decrease in effect and then be removed as he levels up.
  • He Cleans Up Nicely: His yukata version and "The Dragon Knights" alternate costume have him dress very well, at least for someone who says he's not completely used to doing so.
  • Hero of Another Story: In both "Four Knights of a Fallen Land" and "Between Frost and Flame", actions he performs on his own without any of the other Knights' knowledge end up saving the day. In the former, he singlehandedly fends off Wales' army, and in the latter, he signs an alliance to protect Feendrache, and destroys several of Aglovale's magic circles.
  • Ironic Echo: In "Defender's Oath," upon seeing Sylph completely unharmed after being eaten by Fafnir, Siegfried tells her, "You really are a monster." In his Level 100 Fate episode, after two bystanders run away from him, Hagen tells him, "It would seem... you've always been a monster."
  • Licked by the Dog: In his second Summer Fate episode, Sara and Danua tell him that they liked being called family after he is mistaken for their father.
  • Long-Haired Pretty Boy: He has long hair and is a bishounen.
  • No Social Skills: In his Valentine's Day and White Day episodes, he tells the Player that he's not entirely familiar with the customs of those holidays and ends up apologizing for screwing it up in one way or another every year.
    • When he was the Captain of the Order of the Black Dragons, Lancelot often spoke on his behalf because of this.
    • One of his home page lines in his "The Dragon Knights" costume has him say that while it's not his first time being dressed up, he "wasn't very good at it" in the past.
  • Poor Communication Kills: A lot of problems come from him just staying silent and not explaining his actions following the death of Feendrache's previous king. Lampshaded in the Dragon Knights' 2018 PASH! interview, where the others all point out his lack of communication as something for him to work on.
  • Protagonist Title: Siegfried stars in his featured event, "SIEGFRIED".
  • Red Baron: The Dragonslayer. After being framed by Isabella and before he cleared his name, he became known as the Kingslayer.
    • Played for Laughs in one of his Fate episodes, where he becomes known as the Bearslayer.
  • Sink or Swim Mentor: Siegfried's approach to teaching is "Figure out what to do, and then do it", if his training session with Vane is anything to go by.
  • Undying Loyalty: To King Josef, the man who brought him into the Order and taught him knightly decorum. It even goes beyond death as Siegfried visits Josef's grave regularly to assure him of how the kingdom is going.
  • Winged Humanoid: Only invoked in his Fire version's uncap art, with Siegfried's tattered cape resembling draconic wings on his back.

Yukata Version
Rarity: SSR
Element: Water, Light, Earth (Summer ver.), Fire (Yukata ver.)
Style: Attack
Weapon Specialty: Gun
Charge Attack: Funeral Bullet, Burying Bullet (5★ uncap), Zeruch Shot (Light and Summer ver.), Salve Bullet (Yukata ver.)

A wandering sniper looking to make a name for herself across the skies. After a joint mission between her and the Grandcypher's crew ends badly because of the Empire, she ends up escaping together with them and joining the merry bunch of skyfarers.


  • Always Accurate Attack: Silva's "Stick to Your Guns" passive for her Water and Yukata versions ensure that her Charge Attack will always hit, even if the target has Mirror Image or Dodge Rate Boosted buffs.
  • Badass Cape: She wears a long cape in her Water version.
  • BFG:
    • Her rifle is a custom prototype designed by Cucouroux and her father to make full use of her sniping skills. Its range and power are higher than pretty much any other gun in the world, but as a result it's also one of, if not the largest in the game.
    • Her 5★ uncap upgrades her gun bigger, courtesy of Cucouroux, Camieux and adopted family, in order to both surpass Tweyen as a sniper and give Tweyen peace of mind.
  • Cleavage Window: Her Light version's outfit leaves an opening for her chest.
  • Continuity Nod: The description of the Wicked Sick Blaster from the "Ranger Sign Bravo!" event makes mentions of the customized gun having even the same swirly bandages used by "that awesome sniper". Here, Walder is indirectly referring to Silva and her weapon.
  • Cool Big Sis: The biggest and coolest of the three sisters. Both Cucouroux and Camieux admire her.
  • Crazy-Prepared: In her 5★ episode, Silva actually lured Tweyen in a specific spot so that when the latter falls from her sniper shot, Tweyen would safely land on a cushion mat that Silva has prepared earlier.
  • Earn Your Happy Ending: After being separated from her birth parents for about ten years, and alienating her best friend with her envy, she finally manages to make amends with Tweyen and reunites with her family in her level 100 Fate Episode.
  • Friendly Sniper: While always calm and collected, she's anything but cold.
  • Gameplay and Story Integration: In her skill Fate episode, the narration mentions that you have to fight a swarm of monsters, and you actually engage in 5 waves of them per chapter, for a total of 15 waves in just a single Skill-up Fate Episode. This is in contrast to most Skill-up fate episodes which only consist of single wave battles.
  • Happily Adopted: Her parents are actually still alive, but she probably won't be able to meet them for at least several years. So the gunsmith she trained under and his family took her in, and as far as she's concerned she's got two families now.
  • Improbable Aiming Skills: She can precisely see a swarm of monsters and then headshot a very specific one to scatter them, when to the rest of the crew the swarm was still a blurry mess on the horizon. She constantly says her skills are no big deal compared to Tweyen of the Eternals, which should really say something when the only good comparison point she's got is the absolute greatest archer in the skydom.
  • Moment of Weakness: Upon seeing Tweyen unleash her full power, she enviously remarked about how she's a monster, despite knowing how much she hates being called such. Tweyen ended up reading her lips and ran off, with Silva realizing her mistake only after she's long gone.
  • Not So Stoic: Turns out she's very easily embarrassed by overwhelming praise, dropping from her usual cool-headed self into a blushing, stuttering mess.
  • Ornamental Weapon: In her Water version's initial artwork, there's a shortsword holstered in her left thigh. However, this weapon speciality is not reflected in her actual mechanics.
  • Running Gag: In the Grand Blues! comics, several strips feature Silva and her sisters making cute girly poses. However, it doesn't work well for Silva, she'll get embarrased when others caught her doing that act... because she is too old to do that stuff. Whenever this happens, the comic panel will usually flash "27 years old" as a way to mock Silva's age and failed antics.
  • Recoil Boost: Parodied in a Grand Blues! comic where Silva makes a flying kick by using the recoil from her backwards sniper shot as a boost, which she calls "Sniper Kick".
  • Sean Connery Is About to Shoot You: Silva is about to snipe you in her Light version's Skybound Art.
  • Spell My Name With An S: If she's your star character and you tweet a picture of her to restore your AP and EP, her name is spelled "Silvat" on the picture.
  • Switch-Out Move: Her fourth skill allows her to switch places with the first backline ally, and this won't work if there are no backline allies available.
  • We Used to Be Friends: Silva and Tweyen used to be best friends, until Silva accidentally drove Tweyen off in a moment of envy. In her level 100 Fate Episode, they finally make amends and rekindle their friendship.
  • You Can't Go Home Again: Her main beef against the Empire. She left her hometown of Ravi Island, Erste's old capital, right before the Empire blockaded it. Wanting to become famous is less for her own pride and more to somehow get her family to know that she's doing well.

Astral Pilgrim
Water Version
SR Version
Rarity: SSR, SR
Element: Light
Style: Heal
Weapon Specialty: Staff
Charge Attack: Lebensstrahl, Segen Lied (SR ver.), Beten Lied (Water ver.)

A Zeyen priestess on her pilgrimage to travel to several Astral Ruins, which are considered holy sites to her religion. She goes on this journey, hoping that she can be like her grandfather, a high priest of the Zeyen faith. After somehow losing her map, she takes board on the Grandcypher in hopes of getting to the island she had originally hoped to go and continuing her pilgrimage far beyond the normal Zeyen monk's pilgrimage, to Estalucia, home of the Astrals.

She later got an SR version on November 2017 as a continuation of her Fate Episodes.


  • Aura Vision: According to her, a high priest blessed her with the power to see the residue of Astrals and Primal Beasts in their holy sites.
  • Balance Buff: A rebalance patch on June 2019 added more utility and options for SSR Sophia's previously-bland kit by including some mechanics from Sophia's more versatile SR version, making her some sort of a Jack of All Trades support. The most notable change is that Metanoia's revive is now guaranteed and no longer chance-based.
  • Call-Back: She lost her map during the intro Fate Episode of her SSR version. The intro Fate Episode of her SR version has her finding it along with the help of the crew.
  • Cutscene Incompetence: Sophia's SSR version heals injuries, revives knocked-out teammates and removes status ailments during battle, but in her SR version's second fate episode, she mentioned that she cannot heal the sickness of an elderly woman, and that only a doctor can treat the said sickness. Justified as this is her SR version, who does not have an ability that removes status ailments unlike her SSR version.
  • The Ditz: She's very naive and scatterbrained.
  • Generation Xerox: Turns out from Redluck's recollection, her grandfather was equally ditzy, eager to help everyone they came across and had a terrible internal compass.
  • Jack of All Trades: Her Charge Attacks from both versions buff Light attack and defense against Dark damage, as well as healing all allies (automatically in SSR version, while her SR version's team-wide healing is instead linked to her Heilung skill).
  • The Medic: Her style is explicitly focused on healing and all three of her skills are focused on that. Players regularly joke about her class being "panic button" as most people who use her put her in the back row, and if she appears (when someone gets killed) it's usually time to mash all her skills in one turn.
  • Nice Girl: Being raised in the Zeyen teachings as a priestess, it is natural for her to help those in need, and listen to the requests of the townsfolk (even if said "requests" were only the merchants' ways to convince her to buy their products). She even wants to see the goodness in all people, including Astrals, despite Sandalphon advising her against it.
    Sophia: But if someone right in front of me is in pain, I feel like I have to help them.
  • No Sense of Direction: If you gave her a map and told her to travel in a straight line from where she was standing, she would somehow have traveled in a completely different direction.
  • No Time to Explain: While arguing with the town doctor about treating a sick elderly woman, she was able to quickly deduce the conclusion that there might still be medicinal herbs in the holy grounds based from two mentioned facts - that all herbs in the town were already harvested, and that no one has ever stepped foot on the holy grounds. Her reaction? Quickly sprinting outside the room, and towards the said holy grounds without even telling the reason to the crew. And she's right; Sophia found the needed medicine to cure the woman.
  • Power Creep: Her initial SSR version only has single-effect abilities (i.e. one skill for a single-target heal, another for dispel, and the last one for reviving one teammate). Due to this, Sophia is clearly overshadowed by supports who provide other buffs than healing, those whose who can heal the entire party at once, or combine two of Sophia's abilities into one of their own (such as Yggdrasil, whose third skill heals, dispels, and regenerates party HP per turn). Her Metanoia skill is also known to rely on luck, and it can fail several times in a row. 5★ Lennah on the other hand, has a 100% chance to revive a dead teammate, making her a better substitute for Sophia as a backline "revive" support.. Lastly, Sophia is known for having an SR version that overshadows her own SSR counterpart due to the numerous amounts of utility, and buffs (both offensive and defensive) that her SR version has. A rebalance patch on June 2019 alleviates some of the issues in her SSR's kit, adding more utility.
  • Significant Wardrobe Shift: While continuing to look for her lost map, she had to change to her casual clothes in her SR version because the town visited by the crew does not entertain military personnel nor members of a religious organization. However, a cartographer saw through her disguise since only a Zeyen priestess would look for a Zeyen map. Said cartographer also gave her an alternate Zeyen map while mentioning that Sophia should not put on her priestess robes when arriving on the marked location.
  • Smells Sexy: Mordred and Arthur both remark that she "smells so good" in her SR version's Grand Blues! introductory comic strip.
  • Spell My Name With An S: Her Grand Blues! debut comic (#171) spells her name as "Sophie".
  • Warrior Monk: She's a monk in training and is just as capable of fighting as anyone else.

Weapon Specialty: Melee

Old warrior, champion of countless fighting tournaments, and unapologetic pervert, Soriz joins the crew to hone his skills even further. And also because it has cute girls in it. Okay, mostly because of the cute girls.


  • Accidental Pervert: In their Cross Fate episode, Soriz got arrested for being accused as the bulky man who was known to peek at women in a hot spring earlier in the morning. When Hazen hears of the specifics, he shakes and admits that he was the one who accidentally cracked some rocks near the hot spring when moving a bird's nest, making the bathing women be wary of The Peeping Tom. Considering that both of the men are bulky, it can be justified why Soriz was mistaken for someone else.
  • Badass Armfold: His pose on his summer version's initial art.
  • Badasses Wear Bandanas: He wears a blue bandana on his head for his summer version.
  • Bare-Fisted Monk: His fighting style. And he does not even use gauntlets, just his bare hands wrapped in bandages.
  • Charles Atlas Superpower: After retiring from the tourney scene, he left to train in the mountains, seeing how far he could take his body. He took it really, really far, and when we first meet him punching boulders in half is something he does with barely any effort, and he can even block bullets with his raw muscle.
  • Chivalrous Pervert: He'll perv around all he wants, but would never resort to actually doing bad things to any girls, and will gladly fight for them if they need it. Vyrn lampshades it, saying he can't figure out if Soriz is admirable or a terrible person.
  • Cold Turkeys Are Everywhere: When he tries to briefly give up on perving as part of his training. As anybody who's played the game for more than two minutes knows, there's sexy women everywhere in the crew. He even starts hiding under tables just to avoid getting tempted.
  • Dirty Old Man: In his Fate Episode, his punching of rocks into rubble is half for his training, and half because they're blocking his view of the hot springs.
  • Distracted by the Sexy: In "A Thousand Reasons," Claudia quickly catches on to his perverted tendencies and lifts her skirt, distracting him and letting her knock him out of the ring in one hit.
  • For Happiness: When Ghandagoza asks him if he has any important life philosophy he could teach to future generations, Soriz gets puzzled, as he's never really thought of it beyond having fun. In the end, he decides that doing anything else would be unlike him, so he settles on dedicating himself to making life around him fun for everyone, because enjoying yourself alone isn't as entertaining. Ghanda considers that an excellent answer.
  • Good Angel, Bad Angel: They pop up during his SSR training, the good one urging him to continue his training to find his own philosophy, and the bad one trying to make him give up and go back to fooling around. They eventually start arguing so loudly that Soriz ends up beating the crap out of them, giving him the final push he needed.
  • The Heart: He's usually so enthusiastic about everything, when he feels down, the entire crew feels there's something missing and the mood goes down considerably.
  • Hot-Blooded: Loud, strong, hot-headed, likes to get into speeches about what it means to be a man.
  • Image Song: Song of the Three Men, along with Jin and Eugen. It's all about manliness.
  • Loincloth: Wears a fundoshi and Coat Capefor his light version. One thing to keep in mind is that he dons this during an ice crabbing event.
  • Old Master: His character profile says he is about 70 years old. His body is a mountain of muscle, and it's really not just for show. He's also familiar with a wide array of fighting styles to the point of recognizing flaws in another fighter.
  • Shout-Out: His SSR version is animated like one long series of Fighting Game jokes, featuring animation cancelling Combos, Shoryukens, and various poses borrowed from Ryu.

Weapon Specialty: Dagger
Charge Attack: Twist and Cut, Twisted Revolution (Christmas Version)

A strange man whose motivation runs on bringing the now-obsolete glory of the "spin blades" back into the spotlight.


  • Ambiguously Brown: Much like J.J. and Jamil, he has rather dark skin.
  • Battle Boomerang: Apparently, Spinnah's blades can be thrown to return like a boomerang, as evidenced in the dialogue of his introductory Fate Episode.
  • Disco Dan: Even in the world of Granblue, fidget spinners are a dead fad. Not that it stops him.
  • Dreadlock Warrior: His hair has many dreadlocks.
  • Fuuma Shuriken: His Spin Blade is similar to a shuriken, albeit large enough for the base to be the same size as his head.
  • Improbable Weapon User: The Spin Blade is a giant fidget spinner. Though a fantasy one with blades and a whole bunch of reality-defying tricks like summoning winds and flying through spinning it really, really fast.
  • Joke Character: He has a fascination of spinning things, uses the spin blade as a weapon, plays with a fidget spinner in his first artwork, and it is in his name. His theme revolves on spinning, and his Fate Episode's plot has him trying to bring back spin blades into the spotlight, as they've become a thing of the past - referencing how Fidget Spinners were a trend in 2017. For reference, he was released on June 2018, an entire year after it happened.
  • Mundane Utility: As if it's becoming some sort of a Running Gag in his appearances in Grand Blues!, he can use the spin blades to propel himself in the air like a helicopter.
  • Punny Name: As a part of his spinning theme of course. Vyrn even gives him the nickname Fidget Fingers.
  • Serious Business: Never insult the hobby of playing spin blades, nor treat them as useless toys, lest you want to be trash talked by Spinnah. And when he hears that the Spin Cup is no more, he has a clear ambition to bring the spin blades back to the spotlight.
    I'm not just going to stand around while you trash talk spin blades.
  • Spectacular Spinning: His central theme.
  • When All You Have Is a Hammer…: His Running Gag in the Grand Blues! comic strips, where Spinnah tries to solve the problems of everyone... by using only spin blades. He's surprisingly successful in doing so.

Voiced by: Kaede Hondo

Devoted Young Lady
Summer Version
Rarity: SSR
Element: Fire, Dark (Summer ver.)
Style: Attack
Weapon Specialty: Bow+Axe
Charge Attack: Raqsat Al-Habi, Sa'ada Barq (Summer ver.)

Daughter of Wahid, Tabina is a young maiden hailing from Tahar Island. By a fated encounter in Port Breeze, she meets and romantically falls for Attiyah.

Making her debut as one of the protagonists for "Dancing Avengers: Flames of the Heart", Tabina is introduced in the gacha on August 31, 2019 to coincide with the story event.


  • Affectionate Nickname: Wahid calls Tabina as his "little kitten".
  • Ambiguously Brown: Has a brown complexion, much like most of the named residents of Tahar Island.
  • Berserk Button: In her summer version's fate episodes, Vyrn finds out the hard way not to conflate curry rice with masala.
  • Bottomless Magazines: Her first skill, although having 0 cooldown, still consumes an arrow. She can only carry 4 arrows at max, and refills every 5th turn, yet she doesn't run out of chances to refill her stacks.
  • Casual Danger Dialogue: Attiyah and Tabina express their romance through sing and dance while the primal beast Tahar is rampaging in front of them. They had to do so because The Power of Love is needed to weaken the beast.
  • Daddy's Girl: Wahid (and by extension the Ahabak men) is overprotective of Tabina, to the point where they don't like anyone getting involved with her, much more so with romantic relationships. She still loves her father though despite his view on Attiyah.
  • Damsel out of Distress: Wahid orders the Ahabak men to bring her daughter to his care and be separated from Attiyah. When the Ahabak arrive at Tabina's home, she just promptly beats them by herself. Vyrn and the rest of the protagonists are even surprised at how she can protect herself, when they only knew the "damsel" side of her. The later chapter reveals that she does know how to fight, knowing how to use bows and arrows.
  • Dating What Daddy Hates: Wahid never imagined that his daughter Tabina and Qawi's son Attiyah would fall in love, as Wahid holds a grudge against Qawi's family.
  • A Day in the Limelight: She is introduced in "Dancing Avengers: Flames of the Heart", with the plot focusing on her romance with Attiyah, in conjunction with Stan and Aliza's Story Arc.
  • Dramatic Thunder: Played for Laughs. Her Love at First Sight scene with Attiyah is accompanied with a lightning strike.
  • Establishing Character Moment: Her introductory fate episode serves as this. Not only is she capable in a fight despite her lovesick tendencies, she's also a very shrewd businessman who doesn't back down when the opposing party tries threatening her.
  • Fashionable Asymmetry: There are several asymmetrical parts of her getup, such as a slanted belt, and straps on her right leg.
  • Female Gaze: When she turned back to see the man talking to her, the first thing Tabina sees in Attiyah is his bare chest, and it is also shown zoomed-in to the player from her perspective! Cue Love at First Sight.
  • Foil: Stan's and Aliza's romantic relationship is more reserved and both are shy to even talk about it in public. Whereas the "Dancing Avengers" event mirrors their situation with the relationship of Attiyah and Tabina who are more vocal and openly romantic. This even gets discussed as Stan acknowledges both couples' similarities of having a sort of Parental Marriage Veto from the female's parents and that they had to part ways from their beloved, leaving them lamenting over separation.
  • Girly Girl with a Tomboy Streak: Lampshaded in Attiyah's first impression of her, as she was riding a gearcycle while dealing with a monster. Even her introductory Fate Episode's title points out the "Tomboy" trait.
  • In the Hood: Not much of an actual hood, but Tabina wears a piece of cloth in this manner to cover her hair.
  • I Will Find You:
    • She wanted to see Attiyah again after their first interrupted encounter. With the help of her servant who repeats Tabina's love poem to men in the streets, they try to fish out the one who gets a reaction to the poem, so that the maid could bring him to Tabina in secret.
    • Happens again in the event's epilogue when Attiyah prioritizes meeting his father over his romantic relationship with Tabina. After suddenly disappearing in the desert, Tabina vows to find him yet again, this time by joining the Grandcypher.
  • Love at First Sight: Both Attiyah and Tabina quickly fall in love the moment they laid eyes on each other.
  • Love Hurts:
    • She was so lovestruck towards Attiyah after their first encounter, that she often weeps in her room thinking about the chance of seeing him again.
    • Tabina also didn't take it well that Attiyah prioritized meeting his father Qawi over his relationship with her during the event's ending, distraught and crying over the fact that he could leave her just like that.
  • No Romantic Resolution: Sadly at the end of the "Dancing Avengers" event, Attiyah received a letter implying that his father is still alive. This makes him separate ways with Tabina for a while, wanting to meet his father first. Of course, Tabina is shocked at this. Defied in her fate episodes, where she jumps off a cliff, forcing Attiyah to save her and, at the very least, come into an agreement.
  • Official Couple: With Attiyah.
  • Ojou: The sheltered daughter of Wahid, leader of the Ahabak. As such, she's often left with their family servant at home. Everyone else also addresses her by the honorific "ojousama" in the Japanese audio.
  • Parental Marriage Veto: Any other men who make romantic advances to Tabina will be met with punishments from Wahid and his Ahabak underlings. Subverted at the event's epilogue where he makes peace with Attiyah and allows the young man to pursue the romantic relationship with Tabina once more.
  • The Power of Love: The pairs Attiyah-Tabina and Stan-Aliza defeat the god Tahar with this, by expressing their love to their respective partners out loud. The positivity of which would make Tahar vulnerable.
  • Serious Business: As her Summer version shows, Tahar masala is very serious business to her. You can't have lassi on the menu without masala, and you most certainly should NEVER call it the same as curry rice, which Tabina sees as a cheap imitation.
  • Sickeningly Sweethearts: She really, really loves Attiyah, and she has no problem daydreaming about how lovely and amazing he is, much to the crew's amusement.
  • Spam Attack: Also with the Status Infliction Attack variety from her 0-cooldown skill, but for as long as she has remaining stacks.
  • Status Infliction Attack: Much like Yurius' kit, Tabina can land random debuffs on the enemy in quick succession for as long as she has stacks.
  • Tomboyish Ponytail: She has a long braided ponytail.
  • Warrior Poet: A trait that she shares with her father Wahid. Tabina can express her feelings by making poetry on the spot.

Shadow Enforcer
Summer Version
SR Version
R Version
Rarity: R, SR, SSR
Element: Dark
Style: Balanced, Attack (SR ver.), Special (SSR ver.)
Weapon Specialty: Dagger
Charge Attack: Imminent Shadow (R, Summer), Sinister Shadow (SR ver.), Raven's Shadow (SSR ver.)

An assassin who has a problem with speaking to others. She joins the crew in the hopes of overcoming this block.


  • Boobs-and-Butt Pose: Tanya's summer version has its first artwork drawn in this pose.
  • Dark and Troubled Past: As her SSR version gives a flashback of her younger days, she was once an energetic, doting child to her parents. But the death of both her parents ingrained the idea of Revenge into Tanya as she grew up.
  • Eyepatch of Power: Wears one on her right eye. Strangely enough, it is also a trait that she shares with her father Corcia, and Tanya has been wearing one ever since she was a child.
  • Face of a Thug: A rather literal example, since she's mistaken as this by the crew.
  • Fashionable Asymmetry: She has quite a lot of asymmetrical parts: Her eyepatch on the right, a slanted belt, a knife holster on her left leg, her summer version's leg braces, etc...
  • Important Haircut: Cuts her hair short after vowing Revenge against those who killed her parents.
  • Long Hair Is Feminine: Tanya had long silky hair when she was still young and bubbly, but decided to cut it short when she finally decided to become an assassin, following a Dark and Troubled Past that also somehow changed her perception in life.
  • Meaningful Echo: "Eyes ahead... No tears" is Corcia's motto that he teaches his men and daughter to be their own motto as well. It is also his last words. Near the end of Tanya's SSR episode, this phrase also doubles as an Ironic Echo as Tanya can no longer hold back her tears as she cries in front of her parents' graves.
  • Not So Stoic: When she returns to their old home and visits the grave built by Shura for her parents after she had departed for years, Tanya can no longer hold back her emotions at that point, bursting in tears while Lyria hugs and comforts her.
  • The Promise: Her nightly habit of polishing her father's knife is a promise she keeps on fulfilling at her father's request.
  • Revenge: Zig-zagged. Tanya's mother Vina died due to the republic delaying the finances needed for her treatment, and she developed a hatred for them at a very young age, but her father Corcia is against the idea of her thinking about revenge against those people, something that she innocently complied with. When Tanya's father was killed, the idea of revenge resurfaced in her, to the point where she even cut her hair out of anguish. But as years passed and as she matures, Tanya slowly loses the thought of avenging her parents' deaths once more.
  • Sexy Backless Outfit: Her three outfits are backless: Her cape covers her back in her R version, but her SR versions flaunt or expose it. See her Summer version's artwork.
  • She Cleans Up Nicely: Her SR version as she discards her tattered cloak and puts on a nice dress.
  • Socially Awkward Hero: She's not the most socially skilled type of person, and is self-deprecating.
  • Strong Family Resemblance: Currently shares the same short hair style and color as her father. The resemblance also includes the two's usage of an eyepatch, albeit on the opposing eyes.
  • Tragic Keepsake: The one thing that she has from her father is his knife and its sheath, and she makes a habit of polishing it every night. It is the final memento she received from her father before he set off to an encounter that would have him killed.

Lucius' younger sister, and the daughter of the legendary sword-sage Aletheia. Following the destruction of their village and death of their mother, Teena and her brother set out on a vengeance crusade against all goblinkind, while seeking answers about their father's disappearance.


  • Boobs-and-Butt Pose: Surprisingly, all of her version's initial artworks are drawn in this pose.
  • Calling the Old Man Out: While she is relieved to see Aletheia again, she wastes no time in voicing her anger at his abrupt departure and subsequent abandonment following the death of his wife.
  • Fashionable Asymmetry: In her summer outfit, only her left leg has a thigh strap.
  • Guys Smash, Girls Shoot: Teena utilizes a wide variety of spells, while her brother specializes in savage, brutish sword strikes.
  • Kill It with Fire: All of her magic is fire based, something she inherited from her mother.

Rarity: SR, SSR
Element: Fire, Water (Event), Wind
Style: Balanced (Fire SR), Attack (Fire and Wind SSR), Special (Event)
Weapon Specialty: Sabre
Charge Attack: Tempest Blades, Maelstrom Blaze (SSR)

A fierce casino duelist who seems incredibly confident in battle but out of the arena, she becomes shy to the point of stuttering. She became part of the crew after she built up the courage to ask if she could come along with them, helped along by her old friend De La Fille.

Therese was the very first event freebie SR, and is associated with the Festival of Falling Flame event. The story of that event can still be accessed from the world map. To commemorate the game's first anniversary, she got a bunny suit version in 2015 and made an appearance in the first Detective Barawa event; in January 2018, she at last got an SSR version to go along with that month's Unite & Fight.


  • Action Dress Rip: The essential gimmick of her Fire SSR version. She's helping Fille commemorate a major Gem Domain holiday with a performance duel... and Fille got her an outfit that is several times too fancy and poofy to effectively fight in. She ends up having to rip the dress up a bit in order to move freely and win. Unfortunately, she then realizes backstage it just makes the outfit more revealing...
  • Cleavage Window: Her bunny outfit shows this.
  • Coat Cape: In her Fire version (the bunny outfit), she doesn't wear the sleeves of her coat.
  • A Day in the Limelight: Therese is the free SR in the "Festival of the Falling Flame" event.
  • It Was a Gift: Her SSR skill Fate Episode reveals that her signature Tanzanite Sword was given to her by Fille back when she didn't even have any confidence in the dueling arena.
  • Japanese Delinquents: The Lowain trio and Tyre imagine her as one alongside Razia and Ejaeli during "A Walk on the Wild Side". Here, she keeps around a wooden sword.
  • Oddly Shaped Sword: The Tanzanite Sword is shaped like a lightning bolt.
  • Pimped-Out Dress: A subverted case. Her Fire SSR outfit is one, but she rips it to fight properly.
  • Playboy Bunny: Her SR Premium Draw version is dressed like one.
  • Pretty in Mink: Her Event look wears this, not unlike Juvia Lockser.
  • Red Oni, Blue Oni: Fille and Therese have this dynamic... with Fille being the Red, most of the time, because of how much Therese is a Shrinking Violet outside of the dueling ring. She's the forceful one, helps make sure Therese doesn't get bossed around, and encourages her to be braver.

    Tsubasa

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tsubasa_a.png
Mysteria Squad Leader
Rarity: SSR
Element: Fire
Style: Attack
Weapon Specialty: Melee
Charge Attack: Red Heat Crash

A student from Mysteria Academy that has fallen off the usual path of a student and become a delinquent... or at least, that's how it looks to most. Despite his rough-and-tumble exterior and seemingly cavalier attitude toward academics, he has a good, kind heart and will go the distance for his crew and the people he cares about.

He's the star of the event "The Other Side of the Sky", and was introduced to the gacha alongside its release.


  • A Day in the Limelight: The event "The Other Side of the Sky" focused on him and his friends.
  • Badass Biker: He rides a "Gearcycle", a motorcyclenote  powered by fire magic.
  • Car Fu: Despite being classified as a Melee character, Tsubasa attacks with his bike while in battle.
  • Crippling Overspecialization: His delinquent trio group worked hard on studying fire magic since their bikes' turbine reactors run on fire. According to Tsubasa, this is the reason why they got F's on everything else, and he has difficulties channeling other elements.
  • Delinquent Hair: He has a giant pompadour.
  • Disappeared Dad: Alongside a Missing Mom. His parents were both killed in an airship accident, which was what started fueling his delinquency even before Mysteria suffered the Otherworld Army attack in "Lonesome Dragoness". He still holds the words of his father close to his heart, and tries to live like his dad would've wanted.
  • Face of a Thug: In "A Walk on the Wild Side", Lowain and his buddies are afraid of Tsubasa and his gang. When they actually meet however, Tsubasa and his friends all thank them for being the Grancypher's cooks.
  • Intergenerational Friendship: Rosine and Tsubasa in their Cross-Fate episode. The two naturally get along well and it is just in Tsubasa's kind-hearted nature to help the elderly. Then Rosine wants to experience the thrill of riding the bike, and she rewards Tsubasa with her senbei for complying with her request.
  • Japanese Delinquents: He's an archetypical delinquent and leads the Red Wings biker gang. He's very much the Jerk with a Heart of Gold variety.
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Well, yeah. He can be really abrasive to strangers or folks he thinks are aligned a bit too closely with "the law" (it's implied he doesn't get along too well with Anne, Grea or Owen because of this) but make no mistake, underneath the punk exterior is a twenty-four-karat gold heart. Under his command, Red Wing bike rallies often divert to help out the residents of the Mysterian countryside, be it helping an old lady with her harvest, making sure an Erune girl isn't harassed by an unwanted suitor, or even helping an old man with his broken-down cart.
  • Lured into a Trap: In his Fate Episode, a waitress called out Taiga for a private conversation, and Rintaro, who thinks this is a sudden date, follows them, leaving Tsubasa behind. It turns out, the waitress was just paid by a thug to distract and kidnap them so that he may have a one-on-one with Tsubasa.
  • Playing with Fire: Despite being a delinquent, Tsubasa proves that he's no slouch to the magic department, as he demonstrates fire magic with his own hands in front of Vyrn.
  • Punny Name: His name means "wings" in Japanese (翼). Considering the fact that he leads the Red Wings, this may be intentional.
  • Raised by Grandparents: He was taken care of by his grandmother after he lost his parents.
  • Running Gag: When they make their initial appearance, show off their gear cycles for the first time, or when someone mentions their delinquency in a Fate episode or a story event, a bold-font !? appears near the delinquent trio or other crew members near them. Interestingly, the !? is almost visually identical and used in the same manner as Cygames did it during Saki's episode in Zombie Land Saga, which aired close to Tsubasa's debut in Granblue, making it a probable Shout-Out.
  • Satellite Character: Much like Elsam and Tomoi are for Lowain, Tsubasa is always accompanied by Killa Taiga and Yung Rintaro in the Fate Episodes or story events where he appears.
  • Screw the Rules, I'm Doing What's Right!: One of his defining characteristics. The only time he'll follow "the rules" laid down by others is when not doing so might bring real harm to his fellow Red Wings or might get him completely expelled from Mysteria (and thus bitterly disappoint his grandmother and the memory of his parents) - any other time, doing the Right Thing and stopping folks from coming to harm comes first.

Charge Attack: Mighty Dinosaur's Meteoric Rush

A tyrannosaurus-loving scientist that used to wreak havoc at one point. After turning over a new leaf, she works at Alohas as security.


  • Berserk Button: Zigzagged. While she doesn't like to be treated as a child, she willing to brush it aside if freebies are involved.
  • Complexity Addiction: She tends to make plans with multiple contingencies of failure that she forgets that many of the solutions she's trying to solve are simply right there from the beginning.
  • Cut Lex Luthor a Check: Her evil plan in Auld Lang Syne 2022 involves stealing or intimidating people into giving up their FRIED SHRIMP trinkets with her t-rexes so she can stack up all the luck and win the lottery. The crew points out that she can make much more money by actually selling her creations or even lease them as bodyguards.
  • Forgot About His Powers: Despite having the intelligence of creating revolutionary technology, she tends to forget how revolutionary said technology is and how much money she could make by selling them.
  • Rags to Riches: During the beginning of Tyra's Bizarre Misadventure, her pay at Alohas isn't enough for the upkeep that she had to rely on soybeans to get by. For compensation as a result of the troubles she faced in the event, she got way more than what she needed that she bought a huge mansion and still had some left over.
  • Wise Beyond Their Years: Downplayed. She's smart enough to know how to create dinosaurs and such, yet is very much a kid otherwise.

What a Guy
Yukata Version
Rarity: SR
Element: Wind, Light (Yukata Version)
Style: Special, Balanced (Yukata Version)
Weapon Specialty: Sabre+Gun
Charge Attack: Pure Paragon, Ritter des Meeres (Yukata Version)

A dashing young man from the academy of Albion. After his beloved Lord Commander seemed to change after meeting the heroes, he decides to take his leave and join them, to see what kind of crew could spark such a change... and hopefully, getting closer to the woman of his dreams.

Unfortunately for him, it's Vira. It's not going to be an easy task.

Tyre later becomes the focus of "A Walk on the Wild Side" along with the Lowain Trio, who helps him get along with his chance to finally converse with Vira.


  • Cast Herd: In addition to having some relation to the Albion folks, he's also been lumped in with the Lowain Bros in more recent story beats as their straight man. It actually works really well in "A Walk on the Wild Side", since he makes a nice contrast to their bro-ish-ness.
  • Chick Magnet: "A Walk on the Wild Side" demonstrates that he's actually really empathic and kind, and when he isn't a huge bundle of stuttering nerves (as he always is around Vira), he's not only naturally suave and understanding, but isn't even creepy about it, as it just comes naturally. He hits it off with Jeanne with a casual naturalness that leaves the Lowain Bros in dumbstruck awe.
  • A Day in the Limelight: He's a big factor in the "A Walk on the Wild Side" event, as he becomes the Kouhai to the Lowain trio.
  • Delinquent Hair: How he imagines himself as a delinquent, by imitating Tsubasa's but with Tyre's pompadour swaying at the side.
  • Gibberish of Love: Tyre's a nervous wreck when he hears someone mention Vira within earshot. Worse, he stutters with a Crush Blush when he would say her name. Lowain, Elsam and Tomoi finally helped Tyre out of this during "A Walk on the Wild Side".
  • Gratuitous French: Screams "Au Revoir!" in Grand Blues! Comic #995 which also doubles as Calling Your Orgasms.
  • Hidden Depths: He may be prone to stuttering near Vira, but his communication tips with the Lowain trio in "A Walk on the Wild Side" reveal that Tyre is capable of understanding other people's current emotions, and striking relevant topics on the spot to maintain the conversation.
  • Hopeless Suitor: He would be a really good catch, if the love of his life wasn't the game's token Psycho Lesbian (and doesn't even have any idea who he is prior to "A Walk on the Wild Side"). Where the narration admits that Lowain's similarly hopeless love for Katalina might have a chance, for Tyre's crush on Vira it doesn't even try to be optimistic and just calls it a futile endeavor.
  • Imagine Spot: The latter half of "A Walk on the Wild Side" deals with Tyre imagining how to strike a conversation with Vira in the best circumstance possible.
  • Irony: It's hinted that he could actually hit it off with some of the girls on the crew, Jeanne foremost, but he's so fixated on Vira that the idea doesn't even cross his mind.
  • Japanese Delinquents: A part of "A Walk on the Wild Side" has Tyre imagining himself as one.
  • Lantern Jaw of Justice: He is a thoroughly upstanding guy, and his chin is huge.
  • Last-Second Word Swap: He fantasizes having to spend time in a bookstore with Vira as a subtle date, but when he finally got to speak to Vira about asking to go to a bookstore, he mentions going with the Lowain trio instead.
  • Oh, Crap!: Has this moment in an Imagine Spot of "A Walk on the Wild Side" when he accidentally called Vira a "dudette".
  • The Power of Love: In battle he gains power if fighting alongside Vira, or even if he's just hearing her voice. The silly part comes from one of his skills letting him hallucinate her voice from all other party members, including the protagonist.
  • Ship Tease: As of "A Walk on the Wild Side:
    • Surprisingly Subverted with Vira. Tyre may have finally got the chance to talk with his crush, but a Last-Second Word Swap suggests that he prioritized hanging out with the Lowain trio instead of her in the end. But he still has a chance, now that Vira mellows and opens up to everyone.
    • He gets a bit with Jeanne; even worse/better, it doesn't even seem to register with him, and he genuinely passes it off as simply doing what any good knight should do.
  • Shout-Out: By way of Woolseyism; the translators saw his looks and crush on a woman he has no chance in hell with, and had some fun renaming all of his skills and Charge Attack after lyrics from Gaston.
  • Stalker with a Crush: A fairly benign version. Vira doesn't even know him, but he's followed her around a bit too much for it to be healthy. Vyrn wonders if he's even told the Academy before running off after her on the Grandcypher. This actually fades by the time of "A Walk on the Wild Side", as he's now gotten too bashful to even follow her or bother her. His newfound bros, naturally, want to help him with this.
  • Sword and Gun: Although the sword is mostly for show, only used for the final hit from his charge attack.
  • Terrible Pick-Up Lines: When Tyre goes with the "delinquent" route Imagine Spot to woo Vira in "A Walk on the Wild Side", the pick-up line just pissed her of... because for her, it is uncharacteristic for an Albion graduate to stoop that low.
    You know, Vira... I was just thinking you don't need a single rose to adorn yourself with. 'Cuz to me, you already shine brighter than any flower over there.
  • Totally Radical: He eventually developed this manner of speaking from bonding with Lowain, Elsam and Tomoi.

Knight of Friendship
SR Version
Event Version
Halloween Version
Rarity: SR, SSR
Element: Water, Earth (Lancelot and Vane summer ver.), Fire (Lancelot and Vane SSR ver.), Wind (Halloween ver.)
Style: Defense, Attack (Lancelot and Vane SSR ver.)
Weapon Specialty: Spear+Axe, Sabre+Spear (Lancelot and Vane versions)
Charge Attack: Loewenbein (SR Event ver.), Loewenbein: Gold (SR Gacha ver.), Loewenbein: Jagd (SSR ver.), Loewenbein: Jagd ++ (5★ uncap), Zwei Fluegel (Lancelot and Vane versions), Flinkbein: Treat (Halloween ver.)

One of the four Dragon Knights, vice-captain of the Order of the White Dragon, and Lancelot's closest childhood friend. Vane joins the crew following their assistance in dealing with the revived Fafnir and Sylph.


  • Ambiguously Gay: His adoration of Lancelot is one of his most noticeable character traits, with the things he says and does frequently delving into romantic areas, especially in his SSR fate episodes. He also acts like he and Lancelot are married at times, playing the part of the stereotypical househusband by cleaning his room for him and making him meals. Listing all the Ho Yay moments between them would almost demand a page on its own, and that's not even getting into his exaggerated behaviour towards him in the Grand Blues! comics. Outside of Lancelot, he also has a bit of Ho Yay with Percival; Lyria, at the very least, interprets their bickering as Belligerent Sexual Tension.
  • Animal Motifs: Is often associated with dogs, usually at his expense. Ironically, the preview for "Four Knights of a Fallen Land" as well as the manga show that Vane adopted a cat.
  • Badass Adorable: Vane is an absolutely precious puppy of a man, and is also one of the most formidable tanks in the Water element.
  • Big Damn Heroes: He kills a monster that tries to attack Tsubasa Kashiwagi from behind.
  • Big Eater: Always eager to sit down for a banquet or otherwise enjoy a nice hot meal.
  • Brief Accent Imitation: In Grand Blues! Comic #931, Vane and Lancelot imitate Percival's facial expressions and speak his Catch Phrases like "Vassal" and "Mongrel".
  • Character Development: Vane starts off as a pretty hot-blooded, clueless guy who's rather immature, but has gradually grown into his position as Vice-Captain of the Order and became much more reliable, all while still keeping his Keet charm.
  • Cooldown Hug: Gives one to Arthur in The Strength to Wield, in order to make him calm down after getting possessed by Excalibur in a moment of grief.
  • A Day in the Limelight: The "Divergent Knighthoods" event is this to him as it shows him in a leadership role and out of Lancelot's shadow.
  • Dogged Nice Guy:
    • If his second Valentine's Day scene is to be believed, he actually hardly gets any presents for that day, if any, until Djeeta comes in.
    • Subverted in Arthur and Mordred's first seasonal scene for Valentine's Day, where they mention that Vane has his own pile of presents delivered to him from Feendrache's citizens. However, Vane seems to be completely oblivious to it and seems to assume they're all meant for Lancelot.
  • Drama-Preserving Handicap: Subverted in The Strength to Wield, where halfway through the story Vane's arm gets injured protecting Arthur, which seems to be done in order to put him out of commission for a while in favor of Team Chickadee. However, this injury does very little to slow him down when things start going south.
  • A Father to His Men: Treats the soldiers of his regiment like family, going out of his way to look into their well-being both on and off the battlefield. Most evident in the 'Divergent Knighthoods' event where he personally took charge of Arthur's group and even cooking for them in their free time.
  • Friend to All Living Things: The preview for "Four Knights of a Fallen Land" and the manga adaptation show that Vane adopted a stray kitten he found on the streets.
  • Hair of Gold, Heart of Gold: He has blond hair and easily the most approachable of the knights, if he doesn't approach you first.
  • Heroic Second Wind: One of his SSR version's skills seem to invoke this, being only usable at very low HP and giving full HP restoration, and some considerable buffs. He also has the ability to endure any fatal attack with 1HP once, perfectly setting it up.
  • Heterosexual Life-Partners: With Lancelot, though their dynamic at times borders on being straight-up Ship Tease for Fanservice purposes.
  • Hidden Depths: "The Strength to Wield" puts Vane's leadership skills in the spotlight as he find himself having to protect all the trainees during a crisis, with none of the other Dragon Knights around to help. Not only does he show himself to be a very capable leader and mentor, but he also makes some surprisingly ruthless decisions for the sake of protecting everyone, such as ordering Arthur (whose issues with killing had caused issues earlier in the story) to kill Rowley (who himself is still just a child) while he keeps the boy distracted. He also knew there was something off about Rowley from the start, but decided to have some faith in the boy instead of confronting him directly.
  • Keet: While he doesn't fit the typical body type, Vane is the most playful, energetic, and childish of the four knights.
  • The McCoy: To Lancelot's Kirk and Percival's Spock. Vane follows his heart, prioritizing that which is morally righteous and noble over what's efficient or tactically superior.
  • Morality Chain: "And You" reveals that he's this to Lancelot. When Vane is killed as a child in one of Orologia's simulations, it causes Lancelot to become extremely vicious and angry against all monsters in the world.
  • No Sense of Direction: He has a tendency to distract himself by chatting with others, which causes him to wander and make turns without realizing it.
    • Unlike most examples, though, he can actually lead the way when he's focused and sufficiently prepared.
    • According to Grand Lancelot's fate episode, while Lancelot does admit that Vane's sense of direction is less than stellar, his mapmaking skills is second to none.
  • Parental Abandonment: A drama CD revolving around the Dragon Knights implies that Vane's parents were killed by monsters, and Vane mentions that the elderly women in his hometown looked after him as a kid in his third New Year's cutscene. His Level 100 fate episode reveals that his parents were killed by an invading horde of wyverns while he was a child and his grandma raised him until she eventually passed away as well.
  • Real Men Wear Pink: Not only does Vane enjoy cooking for his friends, often making them sweet treats, but he enjoys doing house chores in general. The description of the Knight's Beach Banner also reveals he knows how to sew, as the banner was embroided by Vane himself.
  • Supreme Chef: Vane has an incredibly good cooking skill to go along with his appetite. He can cook a wide range of food including cheesecake, which surprised Arthur. Even Lancelot jokingly suggests Vane should open up a shop with the food he makes.
  • Theme Naming: Played with. There is no "Vane" in the Arthurian legends, but there is a Yvain, sometimes spelled Yvan or Ywain. Considering his status as The Nicknamer, it isn't difficult to think "Vane" could be short for something.
    • "The Strength to Wield" reveals that Ywain is actually Mordred, meaning Vane is likely not themed after any Arthurian characters.
  • Took a Level in Badass: The crew first meets him as nothing but a lowly soldier who just happens to be childhood friends with the captain. Now, he's a competent vice captain who can stand as equals with his fellow Dragon Knights.
  • Undying Loyalty: To Lancelot, whom he vows to follow into any conflict.
  • Vitriolic Best Buds: With Percival. Vane thinks Percival is too stuck up and arrogant for his own good, and needs to lighten up once in a while.
  • Why Did It Have To Be Pumpkins: In his Halloween line, he mentions that when they were little, Lancelot used to terrorize Vane with a toy pumpkin monster. He hated pumpkins ever since.

The current Lord Commander of the fortress city of Albion, she was a fellow student of Katalina at its academy and Vira considers Katalina to be beloved "big sister"... which might not mean what you initially think it means.

Introduced as a gacha SR character with the June 2014 main story update, Vira has gone on to be a major Breakout Character and has featured in a number of events and further in the main plot. She received her SSR version alongside the "Scattering Magic" event in March 2015, a swimsuit version and a major role in 2015's Summer event "Balmy Breeze and Foamy Deep", and a... unique... Water version in between the "Let's Hang" and "Table for Six" events in April 2017, featuring in the latter. Sort of. She also has several seasonal outfits for purchase, including one related to the trading card game.

For tropes pertaining to her "Lady Katapillar and Vira" playable version, see Granblue Fantasy Other.


  • Ambiguously Bi: She's in love with Katalina and her profile says she likes cute girls; however she has begun to develop feelings for the protagonist who can be male depending on the players choice.
  • Asskicking Leads to Leadership: To become Lord Commander of Albion, she had to win a tournament and go up against several of the academy's finest students. Though she managed to get to the final battle of the tournament through her combat skill, she didn't become the winner of the tournament through her asskicking.
  • Battle Ballgown: Her Albion military uniform is a mix of a dress with armor parts.
  • Beehive Barrier: Similar to Luminiera's powers, Grand Vira has this dome shield effect when her Aegis Merge buff is active. It appears while she is absorbing/negating damage and visibly shatters when the buff ends.
  • Berserk Button: Exaggerated from Lowain's imagined scenarios, any mention of radical vernacular in front of Vira will irritate her.
  • Blood Knight: During Luminiera Merge, her lust for combat is boosted alongside her stats.
  • Boobs-and-Butt Pose: This is Vira's pose in her Dark SSR's art.
  • Breakout Character: One of the game's major examples, thanks to her initially sympathetic character arc, her usefulness as a Dark attacker, her attractive design and Asami Imai's killer performance. She's generally treated as a canon member of the crew, despite not being a story unlock. As a result, she is the second among the characters who have the most outfits and sprites just after Cagliostro, another Breakout Character. In 2018, Vira becomes the purchasable Leader for the Bloodcraft Class when the "Brigade of the Sky" expansion was released in Shadowverse. She also currently holds the record of having the most alts, with 7 SSRs, one for every element, and her original SR. She's also the first character to have two SSR's with 5* uncaps, one for her first SSR and another for her Grand version.
  • Broken Ace: Was born with incredible natural talent in pretty much every field, which only resulted in life being horribly boring and an inability to mingle with other people. She never had any friend, only subordinates and admirers too afraid of her, and when someone finally truly approached her in the person of Katalina, Vira's sheer lack of emotional relationships instantly propelled her to worship material. Her evergrowing mental unstability after joining the crew is in good part due to all of her newfound comrades treating her as an equal, something utterly alien to her. Her Grand version's Fate Episodes are entirely dedicated to Luminiera's attempts to get her to simply accept people that aren't Katalina.
  • Characterization Marches On: Vira's most defining trait was her obsession for Katalina that she can't be bothered to even properly converse long with anyone else. This gradually lessened as she shows subtle feelings for the captain in her Summer version. Then Character Development hit its full effect years later on her Grand version where Luminiera helps Vira acknowledge the other crew members and people aside from Katalina. This change was also notable during the "A Walk on the Wild Side" event where she becomes mellow and expresses geniuine friendship with Lowain, Elsam, Tomoi and Tyre. This had Lowain think that their first impression of Vira is different than how she acts now.
  • Cleavage Window: Most of her outfits, especially her swimsuit, expose Vira's cleavage.
  • Cooking Duel: In their Cross-Fate Episode, Vira and Lowain fight in a cooking competition with Katalina as the judge.
  • Cool Sword: Her sword, the Lyst, which became the Lyst Sin over the years as Lord Commander. Obtaining either version of the sword unlocks her (SR for Lyst and her regular SSR version for Lyst Sin).
  • Crushing Handshake: At the end of Farrah's summer episode, Katalina requested that Farrah and Vira should shake has as they were able to cooperate for once. But when they hear that the beach will have another competition event next year, they saw it as a chance to impress Katalina once more, while tightly gripping the each other's hands.
  • Does This Remind You of Anything?: Her voice and quotes during Luminiera Merge are, err... quite ecstatic.
    "Yes! Yes, that's the way!"
    "More! Please excite me more!"
  • Draw Aggro: Her Grand Version being a Stone Wall also gives this effect via her Aegis Merge buff. She is also notable for being able to redirect any and all attacks to herself while the buff is active, even reducing enemy Area of Effect attacks to a single-target attack which she greatly reduces.
  • Dull Eyes of Unhappiness: Played with. When players first met her in the story as when she opened her eyes, they lack a shine, hinting a part of her mental state and even after the reason was discerned and she was freed from being bound to Albion, her eyes stayed dull. Her Grand version has it even worse as she tries to cope with the idea of getting along with people that aren't Katalina and the Captain. Her Wind version completely subverts this, looking geniuenly happy.
  • Empowered Badass Normal: Luminiera chooses to stay with Vira instead of returning back to Albion and grants her a new set of armor. Her permanent fusion with the Primal Beast enhances her even further, resulting in her Grand version which has direct access to Luminiera's abilities.
  • Everyone Has Standards: For all her obsession with Katalina, even she knows better than to eat her chocolates. Remember, this is a girl who decided that oatmeal was now her immediate favorite food because Katalina said it was healthy, despite hating it. Her Valentine's day cutscenes with Gran/Djeeta tend to involve the two forming a connection over how horrifying Katalina's chocolates are, and the dire consequences that result from eating them.
  • Famous Ancestor: In a way. She is a descendant of Albion, an Astral who was the first pact keeper of Luminiera.
  • Fashionable Asymmetry: Her swimsuit, where her left side has extra clothing wraps or bands in her arm and leg.
  • Fusion Dance: With Luminiera/Chevalier. Her Dark version has a skill which results to an incomplete fusion. Her Grand version on the other hand, is a perfect fusion, with all three abilities being original attacks of the Primal Beast.
  • Generation Xerox: Luminiera shows Vira the memories of one of its past masters, who, like her, also held unrequited romantic feelings towards her superior. There's more to it than that however, as it's later revealed that said past master, Albion, the first Lord Commander, greatly resembled Vira, while the superior she was in love with was none other than Ares, who looks exactly like Katalina and is heavily implied to be related to her. Her (Grand) 5★ fate episodes reveal that she and Katalina are descendants of Albion and Ares respectively.
  • Glowing Eyes of Doom: Vira's eyes glow red when she learns that the Lowain bros were stalking her in "A Walk on the Wild Side".
  • Gradual Regeneration: In her Grand version, Vira recovers 999 HP per turn while Aegis Merge is active. This later gets boosted to 2000 HP per turn after her 5★ uncap.
  • Hypocritical Humor: During her SSR version's Fate Episode, she condemns whoever is currently spying on her by openly questioning the morality of the act, despite admitting to watch Katalina sleep immediately beforehand.
  • Image Song: She has a single titled "Another Sky".
  • Imagine Spot: Her "Lady Katarpillar and Vira" form is a story thought up by Lowain, Elsam and Tomoi, and the form's Fate Episodes involve the three of them trying to defeat Vira and the transformed Katalina.
  • Implied Love Interest: While initially played up as one-sided on her part, as the story progresses it is strongly suggested that she is intended to be one for Katalina, as they are the descendants of the pair Albion and Ares who appeared to hold romantic feelings for each other. She learns of this fact in her (Grand) 5* fate episodes and declares it to be fate that she met Katalina, which Albion doesn't deny. And by the end of it, it's heavily implied that Katalina has begun to reciprocate Vira's feelings, though they deliberately left it up in the air.
  • Laughing Mad: During Lumineria Merge, she laughs as if she's high when attacking. And she has rather unnerving laughter if she defeats an opponent.
  • Leitmotif: Tends to share the same theme as Luminiera Omega especially during events where she's an antagonist.
  • Life Drain: By name for her SR version, which has the "Life Steal" ability. Some of her other versions have a variant of this as well.
  • Madness Mantra: One of her passive skills for her SSR version is called "Katalina, Katalina, Katalina" ("Onee-sama, Onee-sama, Onee-sama" in the Japanese version)note  and she will repeat this to herself in gameplay.
  • Massive Numbered Siblings: She has six older brothers. The player is introduced to one of them in her (Grand) 5* Fate episode, who is named Khinder.
  • Meaningful Name: Her surname, Lillie is written as "百合" in Japanase. This is also the written translation of the English word "lily" which sounds similar to her surname. But the same Japanese characters are also the ones used when writing "Yuri", and Vira is known for her obsession over Katalina, so it makes sense.
  • Mythology Gag: Her Wind version's outfit and the name of the associated unlocking weapon are based on her Image Song "Another Sky".
  • Nightmare Sequence: In her Grand version's intro Fate Episode, Vira has one which ends with Katalina being killed after their duel.
  • Normal Fish in a Tiny Pond: She's incredibly gifted and talented, to the point where she couldn't even associate with the people around her back in Albion. However, finding out she's just an equal when flying with a crew consisting of One-Man Army supersoldiers, Primals, Society members, the Knights of the White Dragon, and the Twelve Generals of the Zodiac, she finds herself in a social situation she didn't even know could exist, leading to her character development going into her Grand version.
  • "Not So Different" Remark: Based on the memories she saw in her 5★ fate episodes, the previous host of Luminiera was a soldier who greatly admired her commanding officer, just like Vira's admiration to Katalina. Vira herself notices their similarities.
  • Oblivious to Love: Well, Tyre's love, and to some extent, Jin's in the Grand Blues! comic strips.
  • Offhand Backhand: In Grand Blues! comic #61, Vira nonchalantly backhands a training monster coming after her. She did not look back as her first priority at that time was to find a vacant spot for her and Katalina to sit on at the park.
  • O.O.C. Is Serious Business: The crew, especially Vyrn, notice some changes in Vira's personality after her nightmare, such as when she suddenly volunteers to cook for them for the first time.
  • Pensieve Flashback: She gains access to the memories of Luminiera's previous host in her 5★ episodes. The primal beast showed those memories to her in the hopes of Vira not making the same mistake of letting the commanding officer she admires die (in this case, Vira sees the image of Katalina in place of the said commanding officer).
  • Psycho Lesbian: The first thing she ever does in the series is kidnap Katalina out of possessive infatuation. The lengths she goes to make Katalina happy from there border on obsessive, if not outright murderous.
  • Red Is Violent: Being a tenuously sane swordfighter with a pension for creepy expressions, red suits her.
  • Rivals Team Up: Farrah and Vira had to team-up and beat a monster that was interrupting a sport during Farrah's summer episode.
  • Robot Girl: An odd example is her "Lady Katarpillar and Vira" form. While technically the transformed Katalina is the robot, the character is still considered in-game as an alternate version of Vira. The "Table for Six" event later had a more traditional version as the final boss and a raid encounter, a version of Vira that looked like she was crossed with the Zeong.
  • Royal Rapier: Her SSR version uses a rapier granted by Lumineria.
  • Sanity Slippage: The years of isolation at Albion weren't very kind for her, as she became more and more obsessed with Katalina.
  • Ship Tease:
    • For all of her Single-Target Sexuality towards Katalina, she actually gets a few moments with the Captain, of all people, during her Summer Fate Episode. It's actually one of Vira's most down-to-earth and somber character moments, as she basically reflects on the idea that, if it weren't for Kat, she likely would have fallen more deeply - and perhaps more healthily - in love with the Captain instead. She even knows, on some level, that her feelings for Katalina aren't healthy, but she can't deny them, even if the Captain is available as an alternative. Still, she cares for the Captain deeply, and will keep them as safe as she would Katalina. Her Valentine's unit fate episodes play this up a bit more as she acknowledges the special feelings she's beginning to develop for the captain.
    • Her Grand version's Fate Episodes also touch on this as she starts breaking down due to the fact that she's starting to let other people, particularly the Captain, into her heart. It ends with her acknowledging that despite all her love for Katalina, it's ultimately the Captain who's stood by her side and helped her.
    • Subverted with Tyre. He may have finally got the chance to talk with his crush, but a Last-Second Word Swap suggests that he prioritized hanging out with the Lowain trio instead of her in the end. But he still has a chance, now that Vira mellows and opens up to everyone.
  • Signature Headgear: Her black-and-red ribbon which ties her ponytail.
  • Single-Target Sexuality: It isn't confirmed what her sexuality is, but that doesn't matter because her sole interest is in Katalina. That is, until she starts showing interest in the protagonist even outside of her seasonal lines.
  • Sitcom Archnemesis: She sees Lowain as a potential rival for Katalina's affections and varies between mere contempt or murderous hatred.
  • Spell My Name With An S: In her Cross-Fate episode with Lowain, her surname is spelled as Lilie.
  • Status-Buff Dispel: Her Summer and Grand versions have skills that remove one buff from the enemy.
  • Stone Wall: Borrowing Luminiera's powers, Vira's Grand version is known to be the prime tank for Light teams as she gains huge defense and resistance boosts plus Gradual Regeneration while her Aegis Merge is active. She is also one of the rare characters who can draw every enemy attack towards her, making their effects laughable.
  • Super Mode: Almost every single version of Vira has a skill that boosts her stats for a limited time, and they are given a Necessary Drawback of delayed/long cooldowns to offset their benefits:
    • Her Dark version has "Luminiera Merge" which basically turns her into a Yin-Yang Bomb having both Light and Dark damage types, with along with several stat increments and an increased damage to her Charge Attack
    • Her Summer version has the "Devoted Sword" Status Buff which boosts her attack, defense and multi-attack rates while also giving her a Life Drain and a full Charge Bar for her Limit Break.
    • Her Grand version makes her an extremely reliable tank with her Stone Wall and Draw Aggro buffs that can even greatly reduce the damage dealt by enemy Area of Effect attacks while also making her immune to debuffs while it is active.
    • Her Wind version's "Plan B" skill gives her an assortment of offensive and defensive buffs, while also improving her other two skills and makes her deal an Area of Effect damage at the end of the turn. The drawbacks are that the skill has a 3-turn wait time and that she will later be knocked out after 5 turns.
  • Technicolor Eyes: Her Light SSR version has eerie, glowing green pupils on top of her usual red eyes, as a result of her permanent merging with Luminiera.
  • Took a Level in Kindness: The ending of her character arc. After nearly suffering a total mental breakdown, through Luminiera and the crew's efforts to help her, she finally manages to open up her heart to the rest of the cast.
  • Trademark Favorite Food: Oatmeal. Initially subverted, as she dislikes oatmeal in the first place. But thanks to Katalina mentioning that oats are good for her health, it became her instant favorite.
  • Unlimited Wardrobe: Just barely beats out Cagliostro in the "number of sprites" department, and second place behind her beloved onee-sama. That's nine sprites, for those keeping score at home, if you can get them all.
  • Variant Power Copying: The Grand version of Vira has Aegis Merge, Blade of Light and Divine Weapon as her skills. The first two of which were originally Charge Attacks used by Luminiera Omega. The third one is a buff exclusive to the Impossible version of the raid boss. Justified as this is technically Luminiera taking control of Vira's body.
  • Wine Is Classy: In her Promotional Fire-elemental version from the second season of the Granblue anime, Vira brings a red wine to match her elegant red dress.
  • Yandere: She'll do anything for her beloved Katalina. Anything. She's really quick to bring out that sword of hers against anyone who looks like they'll steal her away. This trait is also subtly referenced in the uncap art of Lady Katapillar, with Vira somewhat imitating the iconic "Yandere Face" from Future Diary.
  • Yin-Yang Bomb: While she possesses Dark as her natural element, her SSR variant has the ability to channel the power of the primal beast Luminiera, who is a Light elemental.

  • Badass Cape: She wears a long, tattered cape over her armor in both of her forms.

  • Defrosting Ice Queen: She starts off as a very cold and unfriendly woman. As the events go on however, she becomes considerably more amicable, and much friendlier and more protective towards Sara.
  • Due to the Dead: She helps a boy take revenge on a monster that killed his dog. Afterwards, Volenna gave flowers to the boy as a way of respecting his deceased pet.

The brave and daring warrior of the forest! Forest Ranger Walder!

Forest Ranger
R Version
Summer Version
Christmas Version
Rarity: R, SR
Element: Earth
Style: Balanced, Special
Weapon Specialty: Dagger
Charge Attack: Steelshot (R), Ultimate Hundred Steelshot (SR), Ultimate Million Steelshot (SR 5★ Upgrade)

This courageous Forest Ranger is the pride of his family and town, and protects the forest from the wicked. He's encouraged by the player to travel with them on the Grandcypher. While traveling, Walder patiently waits for the day his friend of the forest will finally wake up from their slumber. He is the one character who canonically joins the player no matter what, as he is always obtained from the tutorial draw.

One of the original release characters (and to this day, the default character you are guaranteed to roll in the forced tutorial gacha roll), Walder only made occasional joke appearances in seasonal events before having his story expanded on tremendously in the 2017 event "Ranger Sign: Bravo!"


  • Badass Cape: Walder wears a cape in his R version, but it's tattered. He trades it for a newer and cleaner cape in his SR version.
  • Blown Across the Room: Or specifically, "kicked into the forest" when he tries to confront Fenrir, who was protecting Jade from the humans.
  • Childhood Friends: He's friends with the Primal Beast known as Jade, having met her in the forest as a child. But it's subverted for him and Jasmine. While they knew each other as children, Jasmine says that they weren't really friends and didn't play with each other. Rather, Walder acted as more of a guardian for all of the other children and took up many responsibilities, even as a child himself.
  • A Day in the Limelight: He is the focus of the "Ranger Sign: Bravo!" event.
  • Determinator: Even when blocked by Fenrir, who keeps blasting him with attacks that even she thinks should be fatal, he won't back down and keeps getting back up so he can be by Jade's side.
  • Didn't Think This Through: In his debut comic at Grand Blues!, Walder attempts to punch a boulder to prove that he's a Forest Ranger. Given that he doesn't have the strength and build of characters like Ghandagoza, Walder ends up breaking his fingers.
  • Early Installment Character-Design Difference: His event version sports an almost entirely new outfit as compared to his R version. He's obviously became gorgeous because of this.
  • Fashionable Asymmetry: His gears have asymmetrical details in them, especially that SR version from the cap, the various pouches in his chest, and the thigh strap or holster in left leg.
  • Heroic Sacrifice: In "Ranger Sign Bravo!" he attempts to do this by going inside Jade's self-destructing body when Walder feels that his friend needs company. But unknown to him, this gets immediately denied as his crewmates, and even Fenrir pull him from the pillar of light.
  • Large Ham: He really enjoys playing up his role as a forest ranger.
  • Named Weapons: His weapons are named Bison and Escargot.
  • Playing a Tree: The Christmas 2018 mini-event "Mission Merrymaking" finally makes use of Walder's Christmas Tree cosplay by having him act as a tree during their Christmas party role play, along with Anre, Yaia and Ladiva.
  • Scars are Forever: Has a scar across his nose. Notably, he has had the scar since he was a young child, as shown in flashbacks in "Ranger Sign: Bravo!".
  • Starter Mon: He is the R character whom everyone obtains as a part of the tutorial on the gacha.
  • Super Mode: His third skill does this (and is locked for a number of turns before it's used). The first is upgrading all his skills to improved versions (and causing said third skill to become a very considerable stat boost skill)
  • Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: He is terrified of being in towns and cities, having lived in a small town near a forest until he joined the player. He grows out of it.

Monster-obsessed Priest

Rarity: R, SR
Element: Dark

Weapon Specialty: Sabre+Staff
Charge Attack: Spatter

Will is a preacher and creature researcher. He travels the world to observe and research creatures, and joins the crew for said reason. Despite his often sadistic ideas for experiments, he does have a soft side.


  • Badass Preacher: He's a preacher that knows how to fight.
  • Combat Medic: His SR variant has Console, a healing skill.
  • Cool Sword: The cross he wields is actually a sword and sheath.
  • Creepy Good: He's a decent enough fellow, but his adoration of monsters is often seen as unsettling, especially when juxtaposed against his decided lack of compassion for people.
  • Cross Attack: His weapon is a big sword with a crossguard that makes it look like a giant cross.
  • For Science!: He will go through great lengths to research creatures and monsters. When he joins, he constantly follows and observers Vyrn, and he mentions how great of a subject he'd be for experiments.
  • Humans Are the Real Monsters: A major contributor to Will's love of monsters. The acts people confessed to him during his time as a preacher and the contracts he was hired for as an assassin left him jaded and disappointed with people. He respected that despite being called "evil", most monsters are simply animals following their instincts.
  • Sinister Minister: While he is a devoted and faithful priest, he's also a merciless assassin with a misanthropic streak.

Vermillion of the Six Dragons
Dragon Form
Rarity: SSR
Element: Fire
Style: Attack
Weapon Specialty: Axe+Melee
Charge Attack: Magma Chamber

The dragon of Fire.


  • Animation Bump: His charge attack which incorporates Live2D and his chibified model into its animation.
  • Badass Adorable: He's a huge, jovial hunk of a man with godly flame powers, a goofy demeanor, and an adorably endearing desire to learn how to cook and make others smile.
  • Badass Arm-Fold: His second artwork. He also gets to do this while readying a charge attack, or even while guarding in a V2 battle.
  • The Big Guy: He's the biggest and tallest of the Six Dragons' in their mortal forms, standing at 210 cm, beating out Fediel by a single centimeter.
  • Cute Little Fangs: Very prominent in his artworks. It also sticks out while his mouth is closed.
  • Does Not Know His Own Strength: Magical variant. He can easily emit enough heat to reduce cities to rubble, but struggles when it comes to making lower amounts of it (like when cooking food).
    Wilnas: Putting out heat at ten thousand degrees is a cakewalk. But fifty degrees? That takes effort.
  • Dragons Are Demonic: His true draconic form sure gives the impression.
  • Dragons Are Divine: He is a God-like entity who's true form is a large, red dragon.
  • Forgot About His Powers: Played with. When the crew was stranded on a dangerous island, their survival instincts kicked in and promptly forgot Wilnas' ability to create portals. Wilnas, on his part, failed to understand how dire their situation was and only reminded them of his ability at the last minute.
  • God in Human Form: He is a draconic God-like entity that takes the form of a human when interacting with mortals,
  • Humans Are Special: He believes in this due to their ability to harness Fire not for destruction, but for creative art like cooking, which he is a fan of.
  • Hunk: His humanoid form is a ruggedly handsome, tall, and shirtless man.
  • Irony: Wilnas, the almighty dragon of Fire, loses his trial to the Captain because he gets incapacitated by heat stroke.
  • Lethal Chef: Invoked and discussed. Wilnas's cooking skills are a work-in progress, and Wamdus describes one of his dishes as being filled with charcoal. He's very well aware of it, though, so much that he does not attempt to compete with the MC in a cooking match and instead opted for a farming contest. It later becomes a defied trope in his fate episode, when Elmelaura teaches him how to cook and he actually starts improving.
  • Mighty Glacier: Gameplay wise, Wilnas hits incredibly hard with his regular attacks, with a huge skill damage nuke to go with it, but he cannot perform double or triple attacks unless he uses his charge attack to allow him to do so for a turn.
  • Mr. Fanservice: Wilnas's mortal form is a very tall, hunky, and shirtless man, serving as Fediel's male counterpart when it comes to fanservice. Taken to its peak with his Valentine's outfit, where he wears nothing but an apron and a jockstrap, his artwork features a very gratuitous shot of his ass, and his Charge Attack animation shows off his muscles and asscheeks flexing.
  • Must Make Amends: The town he's razing in his dragon form's sprite was where he first materialized, and he feels bad about accidentally torching it. He plans on using his developing knowledge of cooking to eventually work in the town's soup kitchen to help with the relief efforts.
  • Playing with Fire: He's the dragon of Fire, after all.
  • Promoted to Playable: He became a recruitable Grand character during the January 31, 2022 Premium Gala update after being a boss first and a summon later on.
  • Spirited Competitor: His trial is a fair competition between him and the Captain and he is very sporting about it, willingly giving himself handicaps and refusing to use his powers to gain an advantage. He's also a Graceful Loser and readily admits defeat by the end of the trial, and is even the one to suggest the dragons conduct trials in the first place for fairness.
  • Weaksauce Weakness: The wedge of the Fire element is susceptible to heatstrokes.
  • Willfully Weak: He purposefully uses as little power as possible in his humanoid form.
  • Worthy Opponent: A few of his boss version's voice lines are him praising the Captain's strength despite being a small human.
  • Younger Than They Look: According to his profile, his hulking mortal form is stated to be in his early twenties.

    Yngwie

The Full Metal Man
Legend of Bravado and Revelry
Yukata Version
Rarity: SSR
Element: Water, Wind (Yukata ver.)
Style: Defense, Attack (Legend of Bravado and Revelry style)
Weapon Specialty: Melee+Gun, Sabre (Legend of Bravado and Revelry style)
Charge Attack: Red Hot Guardian (normal), Full Metal Sights (Tough Guy Mode), Full Metal Cannon (5★ uncap Tough Guy Mode), Full Metal Buster (Yukata ver.), Full Metal Destruction (Legend of Bravado and Revelry style)

A legendary skyfarer and old friend of Eugen's. Yngwie once traveled across the skydoms, blazing trails for future generations and even crossing the Grim Basin alone, all for the sake of adventure. When he receives a crumpled old letter claiming to be from a daughter he didn't know he had, Yngwie gets in touch with Eugen and asks to join the main character's crew for one last adventure.


  • Actually, I Am Him: He's first introduced listening to a young boy who idolizes him without actually naming himself. The boy only catches on when Yngwie tells him that even the legendary skyfarer was once nothing but a boy with wild dreams as well (and starts correcting him on the number of girls's he's seduced).
  • Badass Cape: Yngwie wears a blue cape on his back.
  • Breaking Old Trends: Legend of Bravado and Revelry introduces the concept of Style Swapping, allowing the player to choose between two completely different skill sets within the same character unit.
  • The Casanova: Yngwie has a girlfriend on every island he's been to. But only one per island. And they're all okay with the arrangement.
    • His Yukata version's Fate Episode suggests that this trope is what really carried his old adventure. Also deconstructed in that Yngwie's the only reason his old crew was still holding on and eventually disbanded once he left.
  • Catchphrase: "There's always time for love!". This also gets used in two consecutive Grand Blues! comics (#1092-#1093).
  • Cool Old Guy: One of the oldest characters in the game, and a legend, although not as old as Aletheia and Yodarha. In fact, the latter two were his masters of sorts when they were younger.
  • Critical Status Buff: His 5★ Fate Episode has him mention that his powered armor releases more power the more he's In Harm's Way. Also considered as Gameplay and Story Integration as his stats vastly increase the less HP he has.
  • A Day in the Limelight: The star character of "Full Metal Man VII: The Last Mission", a story event unlike the previous six installments being his Fate Episodes.
  • Empathic Weapon: Has a shield that can turn into a suit or a BFS at will. It was meant to be a countermeasure against Socialis, so it includes the ability to detect said primal beast and a Healing Factor for its user when necessary. The former indirectly telling Yngwie that Lukav is still alive despite the airship he was in being blown up.
  • Famed In-Story: He is regularly mentioned as the legendary skyfarer, with a list of achievements and adventures no one else can hope to match.
    • Played for Laughs when Ayer probes Yngwie on a few of those feats in the latter's Yukata Fate Episode and ends up getting the result that all of it happened because of Yngwie's casanova traits.
  • Gameplay and Story Integration: While the 5★ upgrades of most characters only feature their final artworks and/or sprites after the final battles their Level 80 uncap episodes, Yngwie's is different. He takes off his armor just before facing Yodarha and his sprites and artwork reflect this in-game during their fight.
  • Gratuitous French: Yngwie occasionally slips French phrases like Madamoiselle and au revoir in his dialogues.
  • Gratuitous Spanish: He also knows some Spanish greetings, such as saying "Hasta la Vista" towards a kidnapper in his 5★ episode.
  • He Cleans Up Nicely: His 5★ artwork and sprite has him in what looks like a summer outfit, and boy does he look like a movie star on vacation.
  • I Take Offense to That Last One: During a conversation between him and Ayer.
    Ayer: Are you aware that everyone thinks you've sired a bunch of kids with dozens of women?
    Yngwie: That's some slander, that is. Pains me to hear it. I've had hundreds of sweethearts—not dozens. Don't you forget it.
  • I Was Just Passing Through: His original motivation for facing the mafia in the event, "Bzzt! Amped-Up Summer", was to avenge the Capo's ex-girlfriend for beating and breaking up with her. The fact that he also gets to rescue Heles was a bonus.
  • In Harm's Way: As Eugen (who's known him for years) points out, he's always been more of an adrenaline junkie than a true skyfarer. His old legend ended when he got bored of regular skyfaring, and promptly ditched his own crew to disappear into the night.
  • A Lady on Each Arm: Taken to the level of parody in his five star uncap art, where he has a harem on each arm.
  • Let's Get Dangerous!: The "Bzzt! Amped-Up Summer" event has him casually announcing his intent of avenging the Capo's ex-girlfriend, saving Heles, and correcting the Capo of the number of women he's seduced. The mafia then attempts to shoot him down, only to find him in his Powered Armor and taking most of them down with relative ease.
  • Named After Somebody Famous: He's named after Yngwie Malmsteen.
  • One-Man Army: In the "Bzzt! Amped-Up Summer" event, he takes down majority of the mafia members even before the crew can arrive on the scene. He could even resolve the entire mafia problem all by himself if not for the Capo taking Heles as a hostage at the last minute.
  • Powered Armor: When charged, his shield opens up and becomes a suit of power armor.
  • Secretly Dying: Decades of reckless adventures have taken their toll on his body; using his signature Tough Guy Mode reopens his old wounds and causes internal bleeding. He's perfectly aware that he's not going to last much longer, and when he says that helping his daughter will be his final adventure, he quite literally means it. However, taking acupuncture in his Yukata version's Fate Episodes and the events of "Full Metal Man VII: The Last Mission" triggering his shield's Healing Factor abilities pull him out of this trope.
  • Shield Bash: His main method of attacking outside of Tough Guy Modenote .
  • Shout-Out: He's named after Yngwie Malmsteen, and one of his abilities is called Kickstart My Heart.
  • Silver Fox: His age hasn't slowed down him down at all. He even deals with a group of bandits in his introductory fate episode by seducing their leader.
  • Super Mode: Using his charge attack activates Tough Guy Mode, which gives him a massive boost to attack, makes him nigh invulnerable and dramatically boosts his aggro, but rapidly eats up his charge meter.

Sagacious Duke
Summer Version
Rarity: SSR
Element: Wind, Light (Summer ver.)
Style: Special
Weapon Specialty: Sabre+Staff, Sabre+Spear (Summer ver.)
Charge Attack: Duke Lamina, Tentacle Saltatio (5★ Upgrade), Duke of the Abyss (Summer ver.)

A knight of Levin who tricked Albert in unsealing the Astral Void Lacrima and killed the king. He is the antagonist of the event "Eye of the Storm".


  • A Day in the Limelight: He along with Albert are the focus of the event "False Heroes".
  • The Atoner: After the party beats the influence of the Astral Void Lacrima out of him, he attempts to plead that he should stay in his monstrous form as penance for his actions. The party instead convinces him instead to return to human form and help rebuild Levin instead.
  • Bastard Bastard: Downplayed. His father is the king of Levin, but his resentment of him is born more out of him rejecting the importance of his research in favor of Albert and the knights.
  • Badass Cape: He wears a red-green cape.
  • Combat Tentacles: His monstrous form has several snake-like creatures coming out of its body.
  • Cool Sword: The blade of his sword has some intricate carvings and edges.
  • Death Seeker: Because his body is constantly transforming into a beast, Yurius secretly plans on killing himself if the beast within him would go out of control once more.
    Yurius: If this thing were to ever run rampant... I would need a way to end my own life swiftly.
  • Fashionable Asymmetry: His uniform has extra straps and strings that aren't symmetrical with the other side.
  • Fun with Acronyms: After he's restored to his human form, he's assigned the position of Disaster Operations Planing Executive (D.O.P.E.). The acronym is not lost on Yurius.
  • Literal Split Personality: Yurius and the Primal Beast of the Astral Void Lacrima were split into three parts: the Celestial Eye looming over Levin, Yurius's body, which has turned into a monster over the years, and an Astral Projection of Yurius representing all the "good" traits about him.
  • More than Mind Control: He was already resentful of the king of Levin, who refused to support his research in favor of propping up the knights, and Albert, who was the target of the king instead. The Astral Void Lacrima just amplified the desire to act on that resentment.
  • Promoted to Playable: Yurius received a gacha version on November 15, 2018 just after the rerun of the "Eye of the Storm" event.
  • Shoulders of Doom: He has layered pauldrons on his uniform.
  • Spam Attack: His kit revolves around spamming abilities:
    • Status Infliction Attack: At level 55, his first skill can be spammed for as long as he has more than 10% Charge Bar. It allows him to contiuously debuff the target's attack and defense on top of placing random status effects.
    • His second and third skills allow Yurius to gain up to 60% Charge Bar, which allows him to cast his first skill even more.
    • Add these to his Truth Seeker passive which boosts his Charge Attack specs everytime he casts a skill.
  • Split-Personality Takeover: Even after being restored, the Primal Beast of the Astral Void Lacrima still resides within him and mentally tempts Yurius to tap into its power once more. In his own Fate episode, the beast tries this every time Yurius gets enraged in combat. And at the end of the episode, a tentacle sprouts from his body but it retreats after he strikes it with a weapon. From this point, Yurius becomes capable of resisting the beast's influence. As of Albert's 5-Star Episodes, Yurius is now able to utilize the transformation and power as his own, while still retaining his sanity.
  • Status Infliction Attack: Combined with the Spam Attack mentioned above, Yurius' kit allows him to land numerous debuffs on a target, and each debuff placed increases his multi-attack rates.
  • Sword Plant: His artwork shows him resting his sword blade down with its tip on the floor.
  • Zero-Approval Gambit: In Albert's 5-Star Fate Episodes, his murdering the former king gets leaked out by corrupt nobles, which leads to him, Albert and Mina being declared traitors and sentenced to execution. Outraged at how Albert has been caught up in his own sins, he rampages against the gathered extremists and nobles. Albert stops him, but Yurius is still taken by the power of the Celestial Eye and flees. However, long afterwards, Albert realizes that Yurius's "rampage" may have been staged so that the people would pardon Albert as the "True Hero of Levin".
    Albert: What if he were trying to redirect... All the hatred of the people to himself!?

Crimson Return
Classic Draw Version
Summer Version
Dark Version
Event Version
Water Version
Rarity: SSR, SR
Element: Fire, Light (Summer ver. and Event SR ver.), Dark, Earth (Dual unit with Vaseraga), Water
Style: Attack, Balanced (Dual unit with Vaseraga)
Weapon Specialty: Spear, Spear+Axe (Dual unit with Vaseraga)
Charge Attack: Resolute Strike (Fire and Summer ver.), Sirius Roar (5★ Upgrade), Solar Spike (Dark Ver.), Resolute Raid (Event SR ver.), Abyssal Wall (Dual unit with Vaseraga), Sirius Nova: Last Dive (Water ver.), Resolute Rebirth (Grand ver.)

A spirited female knight wielding the mythic Spear of Arvess. She is a member of the shadowy group known as The Society alongside Beatrix, Eustace, and Vaseraga. She wants the protagonist, who she acknowledges as a powerful, primal beast slaying warrior, to join The Society and decided to wait for their answer, joining their crew in the meantime.


  • Anger Born of Worry: She gets frustrated with Vaseraga during the events of "Right Behind You", due to him putting himself in danger for the sake of protecting his friends, when he has her, his partner, to rely on. It happens again in the climax of "Spaghetti Syndrome", when Cassius is nearly killed Taking the Bullet for the Captain and Lyria, which causes her to resonate with Arvess again.
  • Animation Bump: Her event version is one of the few characters with unique Charge Attack animations. Resolute Raid is likened to a summon call where a full-screen animated portrait of Zeta plays, just before her chibi-fied version unleashes the damage.
  • Back-to-Back Badasses: Does this with Beatrix in the battle against Diaspora in "Home Sweet Moon".
  • Badass Arm-Fold: In her event version's initial artwork.
  • Balance Buff: Alongside her 5★ uncap, the original Fire Zeta kit was revamped to be less of a Break Assassin oriented one-trick pony by granting her more non-situational damage through extra damage against enemies inflicted with Arvess debuff (which is now turn-based), a powerful percentage-based plain damage, as well as a team utility using dispel. Granted, she is still very selfish, but it still very powerful direct buff to her old kit.
  • Blood Knight: While she's not as reckless as Beatrix, she still enjoys fights way too much for her own good. She does cool it a bit by "Right Behind You" once she's on the receiving end of a proper No-Holds-Barred Beatdown courtesy of Automagod Grynoth.
  • Braids of Action: Zeta has a braided ponytail while wearing her yukata in the festival of Kappa Summer Chronicle.
  • Cleavage Window: All her outfits expose her cleavage, especially her SR version for some reason. Averted with her Water version, however.
  • Clothing Damage: Parts of her clothes get torn off as a result of the climactic battle in "Second Advent". Happens in game as well, as one of her Fire version's win poses will have her with the same look after being uncapped to 5 stars, as well as in Versus, where ending a match with her Super Skybound Art will show her with the same tattered clothes afterwards.
  • Color Motif: Red, as many of her titles have "Crimson" in them, as well as her employment of fire in battle. All of her outfits, (including her yukata), also have shades of red or maroon. Vyrn even gives her the nickname of "Red".
  • Combination Attack: "Crimson Spear, Ebony Scythe" with Vaseraga, which was available as a summon item from the "Right Behind You" event.
  • Continuity Nod: The Fate Episode of her Dark version references details from and continues the "Platinum Sky" and "Gripping Freedom" events centered around the Society.
  • Cool Big Sis: As she matures and mellows out she becomes this to the crew, best seen in Versus and in Djeeta's episodes of the anime, she hangs out and has fun with the crew in comparison to Vaseraga, Eustace or Beatrix.
  • Cross Attack: She wields a double-bladed spear with the shape of a large cross.
  • A Day in the Limelight: She, Vaseraga, and Ilsa are featured in the "Right Behind You" event. However, Zeta takes the focus for being the free SR character, as well as being a Required Party Member in most of its chapters.
  • Deadpan Snarker: Has a very sharp tongue and never misses a chance to make a smart remark.
  • Defector from Decadence: She used to be with a high ranking knight regiment from a small kingdom, but left when her commanding officer ordered her to be adopted into their lord's house if she wanted to be promoted.
  • Dope Slap: She gives this to Beatrix three times in Beatrix's Fate Episode due to Beatrix's recklessness and ego.
  • Dramatically Missing the Point: Not directly applying to Zeta, but her backstory is a victim of this. She was given the order to be adopted by an island's lord for her promotion. But it turned out to be a misunderstanding from her commanding knight mishearing things about the lord wishing to have a daughter like Zeta, and not explicitly for his daughter to be Zeta.
  • Embarrassing Nickname: When he learned that Zeta could have been a royalty should she had she gone with the order, Vyrn affixes "Princess" when calling Zeta's attention just to mock her, and you can also call her the same in a dialogue option. In her Cross-Fate Episode with Vaseraga, he even calls her "Princess" in a joking manner.
  • Empathic Weapon: Like all seal weapons, the Spear of Arvess is this.
  • Fire-Forged Friends: With Vaseraga, with the two initially being unable to tolerate each other during their partnership during "Footprints on Sacred Ground", although afterwards they are on far better terms.
  • Girlish Pigtails: Zeta sports this hairstyle in most of her outfits.
  • "I Know You're in There Somewhere" Fight: Is forced to fight Vaseraga in "Right Behind You" after his body gets taken over by Grynoth, although she's able to get him back after thrashing him and telling him to trust her as his partner and reject Grynoth's power.
  • Kimono Fanservice: Wears a red yukata in the festival of "Kappa Summer Chronicle", fitting her Color Motif.
  • Like an Old Married Couple: With Vaseraga, due to their constant bickering despite their unbreakable trust in each other. Beatrix even indignantly calls them as such during "Second Advent", when Cassius says Zeta is the next to resonate with her seal weapon due to being close with Vaseraga, who has already done so. Lampshaded in Grand Blues! Comic #950 when Io describes to Almeida the relationship between Zeta and Vaseraga.
    Io: Bakameida! If they stick together after all that... They've transcended lovers! They are practically married!
  • Meaningful Name: Or Meaningful Nickname rather. As explained in her SR version's fate episode, there's a reason why Ilsa keeps on calling her "Pupper" or "puppy". Zeta is initially assigned by Ilsa as Vaseraga's watchdog after their team-up due to his recklessness and lack of regard for his safety in battle.
  • Ms. Fanservice: Blonde hair, large breasts, tends to show off her midriff and/or cleavage, and has plenty of fanservicey outfits.
  • Mundane Utility: Her primal beast killing weapon can also be used as a raceship engine. During her New Year lines the protagonist asks her to light the fireworks with it and going by what she says in her second New Year lines she agreed to it back then and is willing to do it again this year.
  • Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: After the battle with Pyet-A in "Right Behind You", the sword which acted as its core had popped out of its body, which she had thrown over the edge of the island and to the bottom of the sky. "Home Sweet Moon" reveals that it was still needed for the Captain to remotely pilot Pyet-A for the purpose of the rescue mission, which left the plan dead in the water. However, as a result of Grace's death, the Otherworlders had learned to retrieve it from the Crimson Horizon and return it to the party.
  • Only the Chosen May Wield: The Society installs fail-safes into their weapons because they're far too dangerous for anyone without the proper training to wield since they're dormant Moon-dweller Automagods. The Spear of Arvess burns anyone who tries to steal it to a crisp. Given it's a really fancy spear made of gold and magical crystals, it happens a lot.
  • Platonic Life-Partners: With her partner Vaseraga. While there doesn't seem to be any romantic attraction between them, with Zeta trying to get him hitched with Almeida to boot, both will not hesitate to put their lives in the other's hands and will always have each other's backs. Even the name of the "Right Behind You" event comes from Vaseraga telling her that he would be right behind her when they prepare to fight against machines from the moon. Their bond is so deep that Zeta being able to resonate with Arvess in "Second Advent" is owed to being close with Vaseraga, who had already resonated with Grynoth.
  • Playing with Fire: Her attacks with Arvess are typically accompanied by flames.
  • Promoted to Playable: Way back in 2016, there was an artwork of Zeta and Vaseraga in Halloween costumes. This concept gets re-used in their Halloween version dual unit released on October 2019, along with the exact same outfits they wore in that artwork.
  • Red Oni, Blue Oni: Zig-zagged with Vaseraga, as she's more outgoing while he's more reserved, but she's in charge of stopping him from being overtly reckless in battle, making them both switch depending on the situation. She's also the blue to Beatrix's red, although ironically her Color Motif is red while Beatrix's is blue.
  • Screw the Rules, I'm Doing What's Right!: In the 12th episode of the anime, Zeta monologues that her orders were only to observe. But upon seeing the situation against Leviathan becoming too messy, she decides to jump down and skewer a swarm of fish monsters.
  • Shipper on Deck: She's supportive of Almeida's obvious crush on Vaseraga and tries to push him to get closer to her along with Ilsa, although his Oblivious to Love tendencies exasperate her.
  • Slipknot Ponytail: Her twin tails get undone following her Clothing Damage during a battle in "Second Advent".
  • Starter Mon: She can be the first SSR (from the pool of 6 SSR characters of their respective elements) that you can receive on the rigged ten-draw after completing the tutorial.
  • Storm of Blades: After being uncapped to 5 stars, her Fire version's charge attack, Sirius Roar, has her launch a multitude of smaller spears of light at her opponent before blowing them away with a blast of energy from Arvess's tip. She's also able to do this with her fourth skill, the aptly named Rain of Fury.
  • Tank-Top Tomboy: Zeta's attire in her Dark version is a black tank top.
  • Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: With Vaseraga when they first partnered up, although they're good friends now.
  • Tsundere: In her early appearances, she has a fair amount of this going on. The "tsun" actually fades later along in her plot, however, as she matures a bit and has to grow into a more seasoned warrior - particularly in "Right Behind You" and its related SR version, where she solidly gets her butt kicked (and nearly loses her hand) at one point, and realizes herself that she needs to grow up a bit.
  • Vitriolic Best Buds: With Vaseraga and Beatrix.
  • V-Sign: Zeta does the Japanese V pose in two of her Summer version's artworks.
