    Vitus 
See Indriad in Theolia Church.

    Maria 

Maria "Marianette" Theolia

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fa72ce7e_13b0_40c6_b7b7_0869f96a197f.png
Normal-type Gym Leader of, technically, Gearen City. Also the protagonist of the intro. Implied to be Melia's real/original identity.
  • Good with Numbers: Aparently capable of calculus as a kid.
  • Genius Bruiser: Besides being a Gym Leader, she's mastered advanced calculus before she was 5 years old.
  • Laser-Guided Amnesia: Seems to be suffering from it when the player first meets her, but it wears off after they defeat her.
  • Let's Get Dangerous!: After the player beats her in battle, she demonstrates her own powers and stands up to her father.
  • Long Lost Sibling: Maria is the last member of the quadruplets that Anathea gave birth to - her, Erin, Alice, and Allen.
  • Meaningful Name: Marianette is nearly identical to marionette, or puppet. She spends a lot of time having her strings pulled.
  • Nice Girl: Goes against her father's wishes to free the player, even when she knew she'd be punished. She even fairly battles the player when her father threatened to sacrifice her.
  • Non-Elemental: She is the Normal leader, after all.
  • Signature Mon: Her Bewear.
  • Taken for Granite: She's temporarily sealed in a crystal prison after her mother is killed.
  • Used to Be a Sweet Kid: Until her mother died and her father went full cult. And even now, she's still sweet - just not as much.

    Anathea 

Anathea Theolia

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/anathea_8.png
Maria's mother and Indriad's wife.
  • The Bus Came Back: Her ghost reappears in when the player and company are storming the dungeon under Hiyoshi City. She helps by going into Rifts and pulling out those imprisoned there.
  • Domestic Abuse: Heavily implied- Braixen found books about surviving domestic abuse in the hidden shack with Anathea's name on them. Chapter 15 reveals that Vitus used to be loving, but became bitter and cruel. However, Chapter 15's flashbacks also imply that he never really cared for Anathea either until she had her friend perform a spell to make him love her "again", and had only married her for her fortune and to get access to the Marble Mansion so he could find Meloetta.
  • Hair of Gold, Heart of Gold: Invoked. Apparently, her hair used to be black, but the influence of something (hinted to be the Archetype) turned it blonde).
  • I Just Want to Be Loved: She asked a friend to cast a spell to help her find love and happiness. It got her Vitus, and it worked out fine until he "met" Gardevoir (it's implied that she just left for a while so that Indriad could seduce Anathea). Then Anathea asked for another spell to make Vitus kind again...
  • The Lost Lenore: Her untimely death was the primary cause for Vitus’ retransformation into Indriad. This was invoked by Gardevoir, who knew how important she was to Vitus. During the Chrysalis manor segment, he calls her name and says he will soon join her and that ‘it will all be over soon.’
  • Meaningful Name: Her name can mean ‘grace of god’, which is unsurprising due to her family’s religious theme and her kind nature. Furthermore, the surname Theolia is likely derived from ‘Theos’, Greek for 'god'.
  • Morality Chain: Apparently she was the thing that kept Vitus from coming back to the cult.
  • Our Ghosts Are Different: Dies shortly after you meet her outside of the intro, but you still can communicate with her at times thanks to the Soul Stone - at least, while you're in the past.
    • Someone that's implied to be her also speaks to Melia and Erin when they're bonding, and her/their voice causes them to realize they're siblings.
  • Posthumous Character: Is long dead by the time the game starts, but her death is pivotal to the Church Of Theolia storyline and backstory. And thanks to the Soul Stone, she can still interact with the living at times.
  • Power Dyes Your Hair: Her hair was originally black, but it became blonde due to what is implied to be the Archetype’s influence.
  • Small Role, Big Impact: Is seldom seen, but her death had a major impact in the story.
  • Too Good for This Sinful Earth: A loving wife and mother, Anathea is one of the sweetest characters in the game. That is, until her death. According to Indriad, she was too innocent for this world, knowing little about its evils and dangers. Zigzagged, as the Soul Stone has let her stick around after she died.

    Katsu Bellarosa 

Katsu Bellarosa

A famous scientist from Kugearen City and mother of Anastasia. She is also the CEO of Rejuvenation Co., a corporation wishing to restore the Miera region.
  • Abusive Parents: Downplayed, but still present. In addition to her neglect, she frequently berates Anastasia. After Gardevoir kidnaps Maria and Anastasia fails to save her, Katsu calls a useless child. This leads a desperate Anastasia to run away to Route 4, the dangerous site of a meteor shower.
  • Education Mama: She urges her daughter to study, depriving her of playtime and contact with children her age, outside of Maria, Anastasia’s tutor.
  • My God, What Have I Done?: After Anastasia runs away, she realizes just how horrible of a parent she was being.
  • Parental Neglect: Due to her demanding job, she rarely interacts with Anastasia, who has become shy and withdrawn as result.
  • Meaningful Name: Katsu means victory in Japanese, a fitting name for a successful scientist and CEO.

    Taelia 

Taelia

Keta's deceased wife and Aelita's mother. Except, not quite...
  • Doomed by Canon: Is this in Where Love Lies.
  • Forced Transformation: She was afflicted by Vivian's Madness, which gave her a pink-haired, violent, capricious alternate form whenever she felt strong emotions. At one point, she appeared to be half-human, half-spider.
  • I Hate Past Me: A variation: she never met Vivian for obvious reasons, but hated her because she felt as though she could never be herself, just a rip-off of Vivian. Cella constantly telling her how much she resembled Vivian didn't help, either.
  • The Lost Lenore: To Keta.
  • Mama Bear: She took on a Bisharp by herself, unarmed (though in her Super Mode) to save her daughter.
  • Player Character: She's one in part of Where Love Lies.
  • Reincarnation: She was Vivian's, and Aelita was hers.

    Deagan Royer 

Deagan Royer

Kenneth's brother, Amber's father and Aevium's former Dark-type leader.
  • The Alcoholic: Used to drink heavily.
  • Cain and Abel: He and Kenneth both threatened to kill each other at various points, though neither tried it.
  • Casting a Shadow: He used to be the Dark-type Gym Leader.
  • Disappeared Dad: To Amber, but he wanted to fix things, he just didn't get the chance to.
  • Disney Villain Death: Died by falling down a waterfall and was impaled on a rock at the bottom, though no corpse is shown- just blood. It's eventually shown that there was a very good reason why his body was never found.
  • Eye Scream: He apparently lost an eye after falling on the rocks.
  • Freudian Excuse: Felt that his father had abandoned them by dying, so he hated Kenneth, who wanted to be like their father.
  • Heel–Face Door-Slam: He seemingly died minutes after realizing that he was a dick and trying to change.
    • Except it turns out that he survived - he was rescued by two workers at the Hospital of Hope, but for reasons unknown he never returned to Amber and Tesla. Why, and where he is now, has yet to be revealed.
  • You Are What You Hate: He raged at Kenneth for abandoning his family and ditching his responsibilities... after doing the exact same thing.

Characters from the Distant Past

    Griselda 

Griselda

An ancient queen who died centuries ago. Her kingdom, the Kingdom of Ghovora, was where Goldenleaf Town is in the present day.
  • Betrayal by Offspring: Her daughter conspired with her sisters to poison her.
  • Came Back Wrong: Rose from the dead and transformed into Giratina.
  • Forced Transformation: She turned into a Giratina after dying, and is likely to be the Giratina that was under Wispy Tower.
  • God Save Us from the Queen!: Griselda loved her people and wanted the best for them, but her story makes it very clear that the people feared her as much as they loved and respected her.
  • Sanity Slippage: She was going off the deep end by the time her betrayal occurred.
  • Unstoppable Rage: After she Came Back Wrong, she started destroying everything and everyone she could, including her kingdom and her people. Her sisters, Spacea and Tiempa, had to exile Griselda/Giratina to the Distortion World to stop her rampage.
  • Well-Intentioned Extremist: What she wanted was for the land to be at peace so her people could be safe. Her chosen method of achieving that was to conquer the universe so she'd control everything and there would be no war.

    Kasumi 

Kasumi

An ancient empress who died centuries ago. Her kingdom, the Kingdom of Kasura, was where the Kingdom of Goomidra is in the present day.

    Ieisel 

Ieisel

An ancient king who... came to an end, as such... centuries ago. His kingdom, the Kingdom of Zygara, was close to where Sashila Village is in the present day.
  • Black Magic: Practiced it in the form of making Crests, which require the combination of Garufa magic and the sacrifice of a living being.
  • Human Sacrifice: In order for him to create a Spiritomb Crest, he had to sacrifice 108 people.
  • Ironic Hell: He intentionally stopped creating a Crest in the middle of the process. The penalty subsequently inflicted on him by the Garufa magic was merging him with the Pokemon he was sacrificing (a Cofagrigus) and trapping him in the Zorrialyn Labyrinth, where he/they would roam for centuries until the player sets him free.
  • Killed Off for Real: The player finally frees his soul and lets him rest by defeating him in the Zorrialyn Crypt.
  • My God, What Have I Done?: Making Crest after Crest (and therefore killing Pokemon and human after Pokemon and human) took such a toll on him that he finally refused to make any more.
  • Unwitting Instigator of Doom: Griselda came to him and asked him to make her Crests. He did so, but then everyone else wanted them, and fearing retaliation if he didn't comply, he did it. This not only led to his own end, but to the destruction of the Kasura Kingdom and the downfall of Griselda.

Storm Chasers

    Spacea and Tiempa 

Spacea and Tiempa

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/zblnplg.png
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fasbcms.png
Two women who wield special powers.
  • Big Good: They believe that someone (most likely Team Xen) are intending to recreate the catastrophe that happened years ago, so they're recruiting people across space and time and giving them Pokemon so they can make their own team. Good Is Not Nice, though.
  • Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: For all they pretend to be a force for good, they don't give a damn about any of their people- as mentioned below, they kill Storm Chasers once their missions are over, and they don't care what they inflict on Melia and the player in order to help them become stronger.
  • Blue-and-Orange Morality: Melia says they don't have our understanding of "good and bad". In Chapter 12, they tell her that while they could heal everyone who was turned to stone, they won't, because they weren't told to.
  • Boss Battle: They are this at the end of .Karma Files, for both Renegade and Paragon routes.
  • Even Evil Has Loved Ones: Spacea loses her cool for the first time in the entire story when Tiempa is defeated, and goes straight into a Villainous Breakdown, vowing to rip you to pieces.
  • God's Hands Are Tied: They state that can't interfere directly with mortal lives unless they're ordered to, and they've got the power levels to back up the "God" part of this. Also, they can only show up during a solar eclipse and a few days after one takes place, unless they've prepared beforehand.
  • The Man Behind the Man: A heroic example- it's revealed in Chapter 12 that they're not actually the ones in charge of their team, they're more like admins, following the orders of someone they call 'Her Majesty'/Variya. Also, they intended for you and Melia to be sent to the Bad Future to trigger the latter's Traumatic Superpower Awakening, and they don't seem to regret all the emotional issues this caused as a result.
  • Mirror Boss: Spacea's battle gimmick on the Paragon Route has her temporarily taking control of the Pokémon you used to deplete one of her shields, commanding it as an ally to her. If you can faint your own monster you'll get it back with the same status it had before she stole it, but if she defeats it with her rampant use of the move Surf, it'll faint the same as if she'd defeated it normally.
  • The Needs of the Many: They emphasize this strongly to Melia, saying that it's the principle they live by. It's implied, however, that Tiempa, at least, does feel some guilt over her actions, enough that (on the Paragon route) she goes out of her way to warn you and Melia that she and Spacea will have to kill you eventually, for disrupting the timestream. However, she also clearly knows at that point in time that you and Melia are causing problems that require your removal, and deliberately failed to tell her sister.
  • Physical Goddess: Spacea and Tiempa are apparently manifestations of space and time respectively, and can transport people and objects across time and space at will, either in person or via the Time Crystals.
  • Time Loop Trap: On the Renegade Route, Tiempa's battle gimmick involves her saving your party's "state" and then looping time back to that specific point in the battle the first time you defeat her, then repeating the feat indefinitely if you don't defeat her again quickly enough.
  • Was Once a Man: They were the sisters of Griselda (originally named Stella and Trinity), who conspired to poison her after Griselda became power-mad and refused to stop waging war. At some point they merged with Palkia and Dialga to become Spacea and Tiempa, queens of the kingdoms of Time and Space.
  • Who Wants to Live Forever?: In .Karma Files, Tiempa admits that she's looking forward to finally dying.
  • You Have Outlived Your Usefulness: They were intending to kill Jenner after he gave them Melia, but things didn't work out like that.
    • .Karma Files reveals that this is actually their standard procedure: they recruit people at the moment of their death, send them on missions, and once they've completed the mission, put them back at the moment they were recruited at, where they presumably die. By the time the player and Melia confront them, the only Storm Chasers left are Irvin and the ones who joined the main cast.

    Irvin 

Irvin

A professor living in Amberette Town.
  • The Bus Came Back: He appears in .Karma Files to let the player, Crescent and Melia confront Spacea and Tiempa. It's also revealed that he was Erin's original foster father until he had to give her up for her safety.
  • Flat Character: He's the Number Two of the Storm Chasers...and thats it.
  • I Own This Town: A heroic example: Amberette Town is more or less Spacea and Tiempa's base, and everyone living there is on Irvin's payroll.
  • Number Two: To Spacea and Tiempa. Since they can only appear when there's an eclipse, he's more or less in charge when they're not around.

    Melia 
See her entry under Main party (Rivals and Friends).

    Kanon 
See his entry under Main party (Rivals and Friends).

    Karrina 

Karrina

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/karrina.png
A gang leader in Gearen City.
  • Big Brother Is Watching: Has surveillance over a good deal of Gearen City.
  • Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: Chapter 13 reveals that Spacea and Tiempa were intending to have Professor Jenner killed after he gave them Melia. Karrina appears to have known this all along, but never said anything about it to Melia.
  • Break Them by Talking: Does this to Karen, calling her a hypocrite who only wants Karrina to move on from her parents' deaths so she'll stop reminding Karen of her mistakes.
  • Chekhov's Gunman: She initially helps you get to the sewers. Later on Melia, Venam and you will "borrow" her boat to get to West Gearen while it's blocked off. She's also a descendant of the Garufa.
  • Heroic Lineage: While she herself is at worst a Jerk with a Heart of Gold, she's descended from the Garufa. Her parents, on the other hand, were the last keepers of the Hidden Library before Karen killed them.
  • Hidden Depths: Her parents used to take care of the Hidden Library. Not only that, but she's also part of Spacea and Tiempa's organization.
  • Hit Me, Dammit!: When she finally runs into Karen at Castle Zygara, part of the reason she's angry is because Karen refuses to fight back, or do anything more than dodge her and her pokemon's attacks.
  • If You Kill Him, You Will Be Just Like Him!: If the player stops her from killing Karen, she declares that she won't lower herself to killing Karen.
  • Reasonable Authority Figure: Bans the player, Melia and Venam from West Gearen because she thinks they intend to blow it up. Once the crisis has been dealt with, she's still livid, but accepts that the trio were there to do the right thing. She pretty clearly threatens you to not kick her in the head again, though.
  • You Killed My Father: And her mother, as it happens. This is the entire reason that she hates Karen.

    Crescent 

Crescent/Dahlia

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/crescent.png
A woman with a Gothitelle that's involved in the story. Seems to have known Nancy.
  • Black-and-White Insanity: Team Xen are bad, therefore everyone in it deserves what they get. Like getting pushed off a cliff when they're suicidal.
  • The Corrupter: Her conversation with Ren is heavily implied to be the catalyst for him joining Team Xen. This was revealed to be true, but it turns out that she lied to Ren, telling him she could bring Melia back to life if he was a double agent for her. Once he found out that Melia was never dead, he cut ties with her.
    • Additionally, She brainwashes Nim and sent her off to turn people to stone. Or at least, it seems that way - it later turns out she wasn't responsible, and that it was actually the red-haired woman/Clear who did it.
    • Her attempts to convince the protagonist to ditch the group and try to live a normal life away from them may also support this. Whether or not she just wants them out of the way or if she's genuinely concerned about their well-being still remains to be seen, however, since an easy to miss scene in the game's opening implies the latter. Chapter 15 confirms that she genuinely loves them, or at least their "host", since they were one of her friends from before Storm-9 - and also, they told her they loved her, feelings that appeared to be mutual.
    • Even Melia seems to be influenced by her,as after her above Rage Against the Mentor with Spacea and Tiempa, Melia considers Crescent to be more trustworthy and considers listening to her advice.
  • Dark and Troubled Past: .Karma Files reveals that she was born to a tribe in the Miera Region who had sacred rules, one of which was that they couldn't mate with people outside their tribe, and another that said that no child could be born in the month of the crescent moon. Crescent was born in that month and her father wasn't from their tribe, so she was treated like a monster, and was eventually sentenced to death for stealing a loaf of bread. After her brother sacrificed himself to save her, she wound up being evacuated with the rest of the residents of the Miera region. After that, she met her classmates, and was accepted for the first time - and then Storm-9 happened.
  • Dragon with an Agenda: Downplayed, but her Gothitelle seems to not always obey her, or takes liberties with her orders.
    ...Why are you laughing? Gothitelle, what did you do?
  • Eye Scream: She doesn't have a functioning left eye- it was damaged when the original player character pushed her off a cliff to save her life.
  • The Friend Nobody Likes: Averted - while the other heroes do rub noses with her eventually, everyone's generally grateful she's helping them, and karma.files is dedicated to helping her connect with everyone else and to learn how to relax.
  • Good All Along: It's revealed in Chapter 15 that she wasn't the one who brainwashed Nim. And while a lot of the other things she's done are very morally ambigious at best, that was probably the only thing she did that was outright evil.
  • The Lost Lenore: She refers to the Interceptor's host as "My beloved", which heavily implies that they were an item. Chapter 15 reveals that the Player Character who was selected as the Avatar, confessed that they loved her before sacrificing themselves to save her.
  • Manipulative Bastard: As shown by the above examples, she is remarkably good at deceiving and controlling others to do her bidding; often hiding the truth, which is most apparent in her conversation with Ren.
  • Mysterious Past: Where she came from and who she really wasn't revealed until .Karma Files. In Chapter 14, it's revealed that she and the mysterious figures have been fighting for some time, and they apparently know her as 'Dahlia'.
    • It turns out she was a member of Aevis, Aevia, Axel, Ariana, Alain, Aero, and Ana's school class in Aevium before Storm-9 hit.
  • Mysterious Protector: Crescent is this to the player. She wants the player to be safe and has rescued them from numerous threats, such as being cornered by the Team Xen executives at their factory in Terajuma Island, and states numerous times to them to stay out of trouble and not associate with the rest of the cast. She also takes this to darker levels as she is entirely willing to kill for the player.
  • Mysterious Woman: Fitting this trope to a T, Crescent is a woman with an unknown agenda. What's clear about her is that she's against Team Xen and desires to protect the player character.
  • Not Me This Time: A non-villainous example. Everyone thought that Crescent brought Nim back after she was turned to stone, brainwashed her and sent her off to attack people. Crescent denies this, and it appears that the actual culprit was Clear.
  • Psycho Supporter: She is this to the main character. Or rather, the original inhabitant of the body they use. It's revealed in chapter 15 that she brought them back from the dead in an artificial body after they were killed in Storm-9, but their friend didn't want to be alive and was furious with her. After they were possessed by the Interceptor (willingly), Crescent created Nancy to give the player a companion as they refused to talk to her, and since then, she's been trying to convince them to stay out of danger and not help their new friends. While she has the best interests of the Player at heart, she's willing to do morally ambiguous actions that they may not approve of, such as manipulating Ren.
  • Room Full of Crazy: Her home has photos of all the choices for the player character and Ana. In a fairly benign example, it turns out it's because they were her friends from before Storm-9.
  • Seeks Another's Resurrection: She stole the Black Boxes so that she could revive the original Player Character who became the host of the Interceptor. She also doesn't know until karma.files that said Player Character willingly gave the Interceptor control of their body due to their lingering trauma from Storm-9, and possibly also that the souls of her other friends are "kept" within their body as well.
  • Signature Mon: Her shiny Gothitelle (who the player gave her as a Gothita). And later, the (formerly) Shadow Mewtwo you fought.
  • Sole Survivor: She's the only person who managed to escape from the Nihilego that attacked Phoenix Academy.
  • Stalker with a Crush: She's this to the Player Character. It's revealed later to be more than just a crush, and she wasn't a stalker before.
  • Villainous Breakdown: She isn't outright evil (even if she's a bit morally unclear), but after the battle with the Puppet Master, she overhears that the Player Character is another being that's possessing the body of the friend she stole the Black Boxes to save. This leads to her briefly attacking the player outright in Zeight and battling them, and only being talked down by a combination of defeat and the souls of her former classmates showing up to talk to her.
  • We Used to Be Friends: She and Melia were good friends before she went rogue.
  • You Have Outlived Your Usefulness: Melia speculates in Chapter 13 that this may have been the reason why Crescent went rogue- she found out something she wasn't meant to know, and Spacea and Tiempa intended to kill her for it. It's later confirmed this is the case - and that this is Spacea and Tiempa's standard procedure for dealing with Storm Chasers.

    Rhodea 

Rhodea/Sandra

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/rhodea_5.png
Grand Dream City's community manager.
  • Badly Battered Babysitter: She's the one who's left in charge of Alice and Allen when they first show up. By the time she shows up at the Grand Dream Ball and dumps them on Erin, it's pretty clear this has taken a toll on her - she quickly ditches them with Erin after getting a chance.
    "Do you know what it's like to be a kindergarten teacher? I SURE DO!!"
  • Dark and Troubled Past: In the past, her father Rafael, the mayor of Hiyoshi City, was imprisoned by his own citizens after they were turned against him by Thomas Blakeory. Then, when Storm-9 hit, her father was still imprisoned, which led to her mother leaving the evacuation ship to find him. Neither of them made it to safety.
  • Nice Girl: Gives the player, Melia, Kanon and Venam a place to stay without being asked.
  • Rapid Aging: Zig-zagged. She grew up normally, but Kanon knew her as a nine year old, only for them to meet again when Rhodea is a full-grown adult. It's theorized this is because she "came back" to the present several years before you and the others did. Also, in Chapter 13 she's seen alive in Hiyoshi City before Grand Dream City even existed which would make her more than fifty years old chronologically. Mr Blakeory says after learning the truth about this that she should be almost as old as he is (and his hair is noticeably grey).
  • Revenge: She wants to kill Thomas Blakeory Senior for his crimes against her family (and everyone else), Hazuki for being complicit in them, and Saki for benefiting from them. Amber manages to talk her down.
  • Sanity Slippage: Between the Awful Truth of what happened to her parents and spending too much time in the Nightmare Realm trying to meet the Puppet Master, she's not all there by the time of Chapter 15. She calms down, though.
  • Screw This, I'm Outta Here: After she realizes that she's in Hiyoshi City again in Chapter 14, she leaves ASAP. Or rather - it's learning that both her parents died in Storm-9, their petrified forms were shattered, and that Thomas Blakeory Senior knowingly abandoned her father to die.
  • Throw the Dog a Bone: Provided you saved Gloria, you can reunite her with her beloved Hippowdon after the conclusion of the Ligosomnia Engine incident.
  • Trauma Button: The thing that makes her decide to kill the Blakeorys? The Puppet Master showing her a box in Zone Zero filled with the shattered stone sculptures of her petrified parents. And a video revealing that Thomas Blakeory Senior left her father to die when he could have saved him.
  • You Killed My Father: When the Puppet Master shows her how her parents died, Rhodea gears up for revenge.

Protectors of Aevium

    Nymiera 

Nymiera

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/nymiera_7.png
The leader of the Protectors of Aevium.
  • Ambiguously Human: She's implied to possibly be immortal, as she's said to have been good friends with Empress Kasumi, who died centuries before the present. It's later confirmed in her letter. .Karma Files reveals that she's actually an executable file who gained a physical form, and is merged with Xerneas.
  • Because Destiny Says So: It's revealed that she is to some degree aware of how things are "supposed" to go - it's implied this is due to her connection to Karma. It's revealed she's done more than a few things that are fairly questionable morally, as a result of this - one highlight is her letting "Admin" and the "Council" raise Vivian, and countless other children before her, to develop an Earth Sense, which has been used as an advance-warning system for natural disasters.
  • Good Is Not Nice: She admits at one point that she directly enabled Vivian's extremely stifling childhood, because doing so made Vivian a Sensor Character who could sense natural disasters before they took place, which would save lives in the long run.
  • Manipulative Bitch: She's revealed later to be an oddly-caring version of this trope.
  • Mysterious Past: She has some kind of long-term history with Indriad/Vitus, who she despises. She also seems to know the player by the name Adrest.
  • Parental Substitute: She was this to Kanon, and possibly Anju and Vivian as well.
  • Really 700 Years Old: She is the queen in the story she tells you when you meet her in the past, making her this as the first woman.
  • Starving Artist: Downplayed - she seems to make a living wage, but she hardly appears to be wealthy.
  • Super-Empowering: She gave the Protectors of Aevium (some of) their powers (Anju at least seems to have had her ice powers from birth). She also gives Saki some kind of power when Saki agrees to become the world's new protector.
  • Uncertain Doom: It's not clear what's become of her in the present day - while it's implied that she's immortal, and Vitus (and Anju and Hazuki) have also all survived into the present, there's no trace of Nymiera in the present story. Until you meet a entity that calls it/herself Nymiera in Zeight, at the start of Chapter 15. It's also implied that she's connected to Nim - exactly how has yet to be revealed. She also appears in a semi-spiritual form, in several sidequests in .Karma Files, but doesn't seem to be capable of doing anything to help directly.
  • We Used to Be Friends: With Vitus/Indriad. As we see in Chapter 15, they were the first man and woman made by Arceus - but where Nymiera was kind and accepting of all of Arceus's other creations, Vitus only saw them as something to be ruled. By the time you meet her, it's clear that any sense of friendship they once had is long gone.

    Vivian 

Vivian

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/vivian_0.png
The original Sensei of Sheridan Village, and one of the Protectors of Aevium.
  • The Ace: Vivian was one of the most talented Envoys ever born.
  • Heroic Suicide: She sacrificed herself to protect everyone from Storm-9.
  • Not Quite the Right Thing: Her friends, understandably, are horrified when they realize Vivian is planning a Heroic Suicide to stop Storm-9 - but as it turns out, actually stopping her causes a Bad Future, which you and Melia get to experience firsthand. Time Travel was needed to Set Right What Once Went Wrong - which unfortunately, requires Vivian's Heroic Suicide to continue as she planned.
  • Reincarnation: The Garufa spell she used was interrupted by Indriad's Gardevoir, and while it still worked, it wound up reincarnating her, first as Taelia, then when Taelia was murdered, as Aelita.
  • Sensor Character: She can feel everything that happens on the Earth. Such as people from other times coming and going from Kugearen City and Amberette Town.
  • Truly Single Parent: Inverted and played straight. It's revealed in the Regirock quest that Vivian was literally born from the Earth, and didn't have a mother or father. And later on, she (sort of) becomes this to her reincarnation, Taelia.

    Hazuki 

Hazuki Blakeory (née Shigeru)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/hazuki_1.png
One of the Protectors of Aevium, and the "guard" of Anju. In the present, she is the Headmistress of Axis High University.
  • Alas, Poor Villain: Fallen Hero or not, Took a Level in Jerkass or not, it's clear that her past regrets basically swallowed her alive, in the end.
    What is a soldier that has lost their will to serve? To live? What left is there for someone like me?!
  • Awful Truth: See below. The biggest regret of her life, coupled with learning that her husband who she loved manipulated her into it so he could use her - well.
  • Driven to Suicide: She kills herself with her Aegislash after realising that Nymiera withdrew her favour from her and gave it to Saki.
  • Extra-ore-dinary: She has an Aegislash, Corviknight, and a Registeel.
  • Fallen Hero: In the present day, Hazuki is a bitter old woman scarred by being tricked by her husband into abandoning her fellow Protectors of Aevium during their final fight. She has no faith in the world’s future and considers her younger self to have been naïve, ultimately killing herself after Nymiera withdraws her favour.
  • The Hero's Idol: Admits that Nymiera is the one person she respects more than anyone else. Losing Nymiera's favor was the last thing that happened to Hazuki before she was Driven to Suicide.
  • My Greatest Failure: Even before learning the Awful Truth, she views not being able to help the other Protectors more in the past as this on the day Storm-9 hit. After learning it, her sanity starts dwindling.
  • Revenge Before Reason: She wants to take revenge on her husband by having Saki kill him, ignoring how this would affect Saki.
  • Sanity Slippage: After discovering the truth that her husband never loved her and tricked her into abandoning the other Protectors, she doesn't appear to be entirely there anymore. She's under the impression that Aelita is Vivian no matter how many times she's corrected, and decides that the Puppet Master must be a worthy god to fight for without any proof.
  • Took a Level in Jerkass: After learning the painful truth about how her husband didn't love her and was only ever using her, and tricked her into abandoning her fellow Protectors so he could get his hands on her fortune.
  • Used to Be a Sweet Kid: The Hazuki you meet in the Heart of Iron quest was a happy, cheerful teenage girl who moonlit as a vigilante, wanted to protect people and plunged into danger to save some kids. Time was not kind to her.
