A mysterious man that keeps crossing paths with Toan. [[spoiler: Eventually revealed to be the king of the game's magic kingdom, which was fighting a war against a technologically-advanced kingdom - and losing it. He accepts a dark power from a witch into himself to ensure his country's victory, but when his fiance, Sophia, is killed by an assassin meant for him, the resultant emotional breakdown gives the dark power form as the Dark Genie. During the course of the game, he is time travelling to Toan's era (his own future), to try and make things right.]]

* YouAreNotReady: [[spoiler: Duels Toan to test whether or not he's ready - lets him go if he loses, but won't let him progress.]]

* BossArenaUrgency: If you take too long to damage Dran he'll start blasting holes in the floor.

* WakeUpCallBoss: Prior to fighting him, you've probably been brute forcing your way through the Divine Beast Cave with Toan, using Xiao only when the game forces you to. Dran will very quickly drill it into your head that this approach won't work with most bosses, since you won't even be able to touch him unless you use Xiao to shoot him out of the air.

* JerkassWoobie: Goro lost his father and nobody would tell him why. As a result be became a rotten boy that everyone hated. [[spoiler: When he got the last message his father left for him, telling him everything that happened Goro turned his back on him and refused any possible closure.]]

* MyGreatestFailure: He blames himself for the destruction of his village.

* ElementalPowers: She uses ranged elemental attacks.

* WakeUpCallBoss: Prior to fighting him, you've probably been brute forcing your way through the dungeon with only Toan, using Xiao only when it forces you to. Dran will very quickly drill it into your head that this approach won't work with most of the bosses in this game, since you won't even be able to touch him unless you use Xiao to shoot him out of the air.

* WakeUpCallBoss: Up to this point, you've probably just been button mashing to brute force your way through the dungeon with only Toan. Dran will very quickly drill it into your head that that won't work with most of the bosses in this game, since you won't even be able to touch him unless you use Xiao to shoot him out of the air.

* HolyHurtsEvil: Averted in his first form where his elemental weaknesses change periodically, and the holy element doesn't occupy any special role in defeating him. Played straight in his final form.

* BunnyEarsLawyer: [[PettingZooPeople With actual bunny ears, no less!]] A masterful inventor with some knowledge of magic who builds his own guns. Cheerfully announces that his plan for infiltrating the dark palace is to beat the Dark Genie into a pulp with a flying mech and nonchalantly bequeaths responsibility for the heavier lifting along the way to Toan.

* BratsWithSlingshots

* [[spoiler: TheGoodKing: Everything he did, he did either for his kingdom, his beloved, or to repair the damage he had caused.]]

* HolyBurnsEvil: The final stage of the Dark Genie fight requires hitting him with a weapon using the Holy attribute.

* TheObiWan

* MrExposition: To an almost ridiculous degree. Thankfully he eventually just gives you an in-game manual to answer any questions you may have about game mechanics.
