History Characters / FarawayStory

King Gollmo Erance chose four elites to inherit fractions of his godlike power and act as his {{Dragon}}s. Unfortunately for the party, the Unit wants to conquer the Faraway Continent, making them the main antagonists of Part 1.

* BonusBoss: Unlike Karnel and Erena, her DuelBoss fight is not mandatory for the story [[spoiler:due to her leaving before the fight with Necrovia]].

* BewareTheSillyOnes: He has an eccentric personality and is a little too affectionate towards children, but he's one of the strongest party members as well as a tough BonusBoss.
* BonusBoss: His duel mission is available after you defeat Karnel and is not required by the story. However, Pia has little chance of winning until the end of Part 1.

* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Subverted. [[spoiler:Her natural hair color is red, but she dyed it purple to disassociate herself from her family.]]

* GameplayAndStorySegregation: It's possible and more practical for her to defeat Ellevark in the last chapter of Part 1 rather than in an earlier chapter. [[spoiler:However, the ending cutscene will still have her facing the army outside of Ellevark's house in Erance.]]

* SurpassedTheTeacher: This trope is the entire point of the "A True Battle With Ellevark" mission. However, this trope is defied in gameplay because Ellevark as an ally will always have the same crafting levels as Pia and will scale to her combat level once she hits 45.

* BewareTheSillyOnes: He has an [[{{Adorkable}} eccentric personality]] and is a little too affectionate towards children, but he's one of the strongest party members as well as a tough BonusBoss.
* BonusBoss: His duel mission is available after you defeat Karnel. However, Pia has little chance of winning until the end of Part 1.

* PlayingWithFire: Her main element is Fire and she's indeed capable of learning all 5 levels of Fire spells.

* StationaryBoss: It cannot move from the upper middle part of the boss arena.

* LightIsGood: She can use the light element and is very accepting of outsiders. While she doesn't have offensive light spells, she does have a skil that can illuminate dark maps.

* NotSoWellIntentionedExtremist: Stella states that despite his words about following his god, he's really interpreting his religion to justify his hatred of outsiders.

* SquishyWizard: Combined with FragileSpeedster. Her MAG and AGI are high while her DEF is low.

* LightIsGood: She can use the light element and is very accepting of outsiders.

* HateSink: He is devoid of the sympathetic and entertaining qualities found in the game's other villains, and is instead characterized by his [[FeelingOppressedByTheirExistence hatred and paranoia of non-Armonicans]]. He claims to be a pious clergyman, yet he displays his [[{{Hypocrite}} hypocrisy]] by ignoring Gran's teachings of generosity, as shown when he both refuses to help a dying outsider and threatens to punish Stella for helping. He gets worse when he frames Ellevark for trespassing on Armonica Cathedral's roof and orders his soldiers to shoot both Ellevark and Stella with poison arrows, killing Stella and traumatizing Ellevark into fearing interactions with humans. Eventually, his deplorable actions [[EvenEvilHasStandards cause one of his subordinates to poison him]] as a form of karma.

* TheMentor: After the Port Fina incident, he accepts Pia's request to train her to become stronger. As such, he's responsible for most of the tutorial missions. He also has his own mentor in Gran, a Celestial who controls the sun.

* TheMentor: He trained Ellevark for centuries, which explains why Ellevark starts at a higher level than the other party members. In Part 1, he teaches Pia her LimitBreak.

* JustToyingWithThem: Her entry in the Monster Book indicates that she didn't fight the party seriously.

* AmbiguouslyEvil: He's interested in conquering the Faraway Continent, though it's unknown if he has the same goals as Remi.

* {{Lunacy}}: She's the one who repaired the moon, and is disappointed that the Armonicans don't pay as much attention to her, especially when her power is the source of Chime Water's power.

* BerserkButton: He doesn't take well to Ellevark establishing restrictions on performing alchemy for the sake of Pia's training.

* ComicallyMissingThePoint: His idea of a "meal" is to create potions with all the necessary daily nutrients. If he's given cooking duty, he might produce a syringe that injects nutrients directly into the bloodstream.

* HeroicBSOD: When he first visits Armonica, Ellevark is very goofy, sociable, and willing to go out of his way to help others, despite having faced discrimination from humans in the past. Unfortunately, he becomes somber and introverted [[spoiler:when the Armonican priest's plan to kill him results in Stella performing a HeroicSacrifice]]. He stays like this for nearly thirteen years because he fears an event like this will happen again if he gets too close to humans, though meeting Pia gets him to break out of his shell. He's still unable to revisit Armonica until he completes several Past Archive events.

* BoringButPractical: When he cooks, he always just cooks an ingredient in an incredibly simple way, like when he grilled radishes and called it a meal. In Part 2, the closest he ever got to a complex meal was his "Sausage d'Saucesome," which is just sausage pan-baked with consomme soup.

* ComicallyMissingThePoint: His idea of a meal is to create potions with all the necessary daily nutrients. If he's given cooking duty, he might produce a syringe that inject nutrients directly into the bloodstream.

* MentorOccuptionalHazard: Played straight in the Part 1 alternate ending, [[spoiler:where he turns into Time Sand after Pia defeats him in a duel]]. Inverted in the canon ending of Part 1, [[spoiler:where all of Curlenia is swallowed by a wave of darkness while Pia is still on that continent]].

* ButNowIMustGo: Combined with HeroicSacrifice in the Ultimate Pharmacist ending. [[spoiler:Another interpretation of his death is rather than dying from exhaustion, he died because he completed his mission as a Celestial by training Pia enough so she can protect the continent by herself.]]

* FriendToAllChildren: Ellevark has a soft spot for children. This gets to the point where he allows Mimi to join the party without becoming a DuelBoss, simply because he doesn't want her to get hurt.

* ComicallyMissingThePoint: His idea of a meal is to create potions with all the necessary daily nutrients.

* HeroesPreferSwords: She can equip lighter swords, but not greatswords. She also has a decent variety of null-elemental sword skills.

* SurpassedTheTeacher: This trope is the entire point of the "A True Battle With Ellevark" mission. However, this trope is defied in gameplay because Ellevark as an ally will always have the same crafting levels as Pia and will scale to her combat level once she hits 45, at least until Part 2.

* LightningBruiser: He's a JackOfAllStats in everything except ATK, which he has the second highest growth for.

* CurbStompBattle: Her CutsceneBoss fight with Ellevark is ridiculously one-sided in her favor due to her cloak. He's only able to get one good hit in by expending some time sand, which he obviously wouldn't be able to do consistently.
