[[quoteright:126:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/grandia_pakon_crying.gif]]
[[caption-width-right:126:]]
The head of the Adventurer's Society at New Parm. Inherited the position from his father, Mr. Gauss. He's utterly infatuated with Feena, and won't take her adamant refusal for an answer.

* AbhorrentAdmirer: He's obsessed with Feena, who can't stand him (for obvious reasons).
* AndNowYouMustMarryMe: Tries to wed a kidnapped, bound and gagged Feena, though Justin and Sue arrive in time to stop it.
* TheDreaded: When he kidnaps Feena to wed her, the citizens of New Parm either are willing to ignore the legality for the sake of a good party, or would rather fake an injury to avoid having his Society cut their funding.
* EntitledToHaveYou: Threatens to take away Feena's Adventuring licence if she doesn't marry him, and then kidnaps her when she claims she's already Justin's girlfriend.
* {{Jerkass}}: Just a complete and utter prat. If he wasn't such an obvious loser, he'd probably qualify as a HateSink.
* NoseNuggets: Even when he's not crying, his conversation portrait always has a trail of snot long enough to reach his mouth.
* OcularGushers: Tears and snot shoot out of his face when he doesn't get his way.
* PointyHairedBoss: He's turned the guild into a Feena fanclub in all but name, and uses his position of power to get his way.
* PropagandaPiece: The New Parm theater, funded by the Society, is always putting on a play of "Feena" pining after the heroic "Pakon".
* SketchySuccessor: He's nothing like his father, who was an old friend of Justin's parents, and was strong enough to fight his own battles.
* TheUnfought: Instead of fighting you directly, he calls on his bodyguard, Mr. Chang.
* VillainousHarlequin: His outfit of choice is evocative of this, with a large frilled collar and puffy pants.

[[folder:Gaia]]
The ultimate villain of the story. Born from a corrupted Spirit Stone that humans attempted to use without the power of the Icarians, Gaia was the one responsible for wiping out the Angelou civilization. After being awakened by General Baal, it threatens to do so for the rest of the world.

* BigBad: It destroyed the Angelou civilization, now it's coming for the rest.
* EldritchAbomination: Especially its final form you fight.
* FlunkyBoss: First form of the final boss fight against it has it being accompanied ten or so mooks.
* HumansAreTheRealMonsters: What it ultimately believes. Humans were greedy enough to cause its creation, thus they were clearly asking for total annihilation.
* WhenTreesAttack: Gaia is some sort bug-tree hybrid.

* AmazonianBeauty: At only 19 years old, she ''towers'' over the rest of the cast, is strong enough to smash tanks and cause earthquakes with her bare hands, and is still a gorgeous woman despite being visibly quite muscular. Don't be fooled by her tough exterior though, she's actually a pretty sweet woman.

An adventurer whom Justin and Sue meet during their trip to New Parm. Unlike Justin, she is very accomplished and something of a local celebrity. Feena wields knives and [[WhipItGood whips]].

* ActionGirl: Feena is one when you meet her on your trip to New Parm. She's also on equal ground with Justin as a melee fighter and has fire magic to boot! She undergoes some {{Chickification}} by mid CD 2, but recovers towards the [[FinalBattle End Game]], although she is surpassed as a melee fighter and her attributes grow towards magic, making her the second best mage in the game, maybe the best if you count her plot related spells.

* InfinityPlusOneSword: [[WhipItGood Whip of Light]].
* LastDiscMagic: The unsealing of her [[spoiler:Icarian wings]] grants her additional magic, but only in the latter part of Disc 2.
** One of these spells, Time Gate, is such a GameBreaker that Feena needs to be at Lv. '''99''' magic to use it. (This is actually a [[https://grandia.fandom.com/wiki/Time_Gate programming error]] and is fixed in the Nintendo Switch version of the game.)

* WhipItGood: Feena's second weapon of choice. She is also the only character in the game who uses them. She has three special techniques she can use when armed with a Whip; Paralyze Whip, which has a chance to paralyze a single target, and two ElementalWeapon techniques -- the multi-target-hitting Flame Whip, and the single target Zap Whip.

* AccidentalPervert: Feena stops short in a crawlspace on the Ghost Ship, resulting in Justin [[SomeonesTouchingMyButt pawing at her butt]]. Oops.

* ChasteHero: He's pretty slow on the uptake when Feena hits on him. Ironically, the only time Justin gets hot and bothered is when he sees Nana, Saki and Mio in their panties.

* BareYourMidriff: Her outfit exposes her navel.

The main protagonist of ''Grandia'' and a third-generation adventurer. Before his death, Justin's father left his son a treasured stone. Justin becomes convinced that the stone is a shard from the legendary Spirit Stone, which the Garlyle Forces is seeking. While meddling in a high-security excavation, Justin stumbles onto a hologram of a woman beckoning him to Alent, a mythical city of the long-dead Angelou civilization. He uses [[HeroesPreferSwords swords]], [[CarryABigStick maces]] and [[AnAxeToGrind axes]] in battle.

* AnAxeToGrind: Justin can use axes, and benefits greatly from doing so: leveling up his Axe stat grants him enormous boosts in strength and HP.

* WeaponOfChoice: Usually depicted with a [[CoolSword Spirit Sword]].

* WeaponOfChoice: [[HeroesPreferSwords Swords]], knives and long distance weapons.

* WeaponOfChoice: [[HeroesPreferSwords Swords]], maces and [[AnAxeToGrind axes]].

* WeaponOfChoice: Maces, knives and long distance weapons.

* WeaponOfChoice: Maces.

* WeaponOfChoice: Maces, [[KnifeNut knives]] and long distance weapons.

An adventurer whom Justin and Sue meet during their trip to New Parm. Unlike Justin, she is very accomplished and something of a local celebrity. Feena wields [[KnifeNut knives]] and [[WhipItGood whips]].

* KnifeNut: Feena's first weapon of choice is daggers. When armed with daggers, she has access to the special techniques Knife Hurl, which hits one target at range, and Random Hurl, which hits ''all'' enemies on screen from range.

* WeaponOfChoice: [[HeroesPreferSwords Swords]], [[KnifeNut knives]] and long distance weapons.
