History Characters / OctopathTravelerChampionsOfTheContinent

* AffectionateNickname: While most call the player character the Ringerbearer Chosen\Chosen One, Bargello refers to them as "partner" as a token of friendship.

* {{Catchphrase}}: He yells [[GratuitousEnglish "MARVELOUS!"]] whenever he's excited.

* PrincessClassic: She is one for the most part.

* AnimalMotifs: Sheep. They're a major part of the aptly named Shepherd's Rock, where Solon resides, and associated with being peaceful creatures. In Ch. 8 of "Master of All", Pardis III dares Solon to prove that he can be a wolf bearing claws.

The leader of a gang, the "[[TheMafia New Mafia]]", in Valore. Resolute in his quest to end Herminia's reign, he joins up with the Chosen One in hopes of changing his hometown.

* TheFettered: Bargello has a strong sense of morality (despite being in [[TheMafia the mafia]]) and acts predominantly upon his code of honor. Granted, he shows a strong protection instinct for other members of the [[TheMafia New Mafia]] which tends to override his views of events. Pierro claims that Bargello would give up his own arm if he knew it would help his people.

* KlingonPromotion: After bringing about Herminia's death, he assumes direct control over her reign of the [[TheMafia mafia of Valore]]. While many factions of her mafia break off to compete for Bargello's control of the mafia, he's still able to hold his own.

* MeetTheNewBoss: [[AvertedTrope Averted]]; Bargello actually takes efforts to improve the quality of life for Valore after he assumes control over Herminia's [[TheMafia mafia]]. In fact, one of the first things he does is disestablish her drug trading ring, and make sure to go after those who would try to make things worse. The priest in Valore even praises his family, saying that the town is at peace now thanks to them.

* TheLancer: A pretty tame one in the [[TheMafia New Mafia]] to Bargello. While the latter is more reserved and methodical, Tiziano is passionate and outgoing.

* TheMcCoy: Out of all the members of [[TheMafia the New Mafia]], Pierro is by far the most emotionally-centric member.

* SayMyName: Screams Tiziano's name multiple times [[spoiler: as Tiziano is dying from being tortured by Herminia]]. [[spoiler: Then again when Tiziano reveals that he's Oskha]].

* TheBigGuy: He's one to the [[TheMafia New Mafia]].
* BruiserWithASoftCenter: While he doesn't let on too many emotions, Fra is a considerate person and shows his distress upon [[spoiler:Tiziano's death]] with the rest of the [[TheMafia New Mafia]].

* AintTooProudToBeg: [[spoiler:When betrayed by Sonia, Taviani grovels and begs Herminia for his life to the point where he even starts clinging to her legs.]] [[spoiler:Yet, she spares no mercy and kills him.]]
* TheDon: [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]]; While one might think that Taviani is the mafia don, Herminia is his godmother and boss. The title he carries is simply a remnant from his former days as the don of the Valore mafia.

An old friend of Bargello who's come under the employ of Don Taviani. She hates Herminia with a burning passion and teams up with the rest of the [[TheMafia New Mafia]] to bring her down.

* ChildhoodFriends: She knew Bargello from the time when they were children whereupon the two of them would go on grape heists in Valore, with hints that the two once had some kind of past fling. To a lesser extent, she's also great friends with the rest of the [[TheMafia New Mafia]].

* OnlyInItForTheMoney: [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]]; Despite encountering her on the Master of Wealth storyline, Sonia makes it clear she's fighting against Herminia to avenge her parents' deaths, not for money. [[spoiler:In actuality, [[DoubleSubversion Sonia is only fighting for money]] after Herminia exposed her to a life of riches. In fact, she only wished to emulate Herminia's lifestyle after her parents died.]]
* YankTheDogsChain: [[spoiler:Sonia actually wished to have a life like Herminia's where she lived in infinite wealth instead of being caught up in revenge. As such, Sonia ended up siding with Herminia and spied on Taviani for quite some time in order to further her own riches. This desire ultimately [[SuicideAttack gets her killed]] when defeated by Bargello since she knows she no longer will be paid by Herminia due to her failure. As a result, she returns to dust after fearing she must live in the dust once more.]]

The leader of a rival family to the [[TheMafia New Mafia]] vying for control under Herminia's authority. While bull-headed and eager, he's loyal to an extent for bringing about change to Valore.

* TheBigGuy: He most certainly gives Fra a run for his money for being the [[TitleDrop Big Guy]] of the [[TheMafia New Mafia]]. Not only is he shown to take on the Chosen One in combat, but he's also strong enough to be recognized for his strength instantly by Bargello.

* DefeatMeansFriendship: After fighting him to show that Bargello's gang is stronger, he agrees to join with the [[TheMafia New Mafia]] and becomes one of Bargello's subordinates. Admittedly, he does this out of fear for his life, but he ends up becoming quick friends with the rest of the [[TheMafia New Mafia]].

The feared Witch of Greed, Herminia is the [[TheQueenpin leader]] of her own [[TheMafia mafia]] & is subsequently the ruler of Valore. She's well known for being a prostitute, drug dealer, and greedy to the point where she will kill anyone in her way stopping her from amassing more wealth.

* BlackWidow: Herminia first rose to prominence after she became the mistress of the head leader of a [[TheMafia mafia familly]]. After successfully seducing him, she also was able to seduce his lackeys and convinced them to assassinate him. As a result, she gained a vast portion of the leader's money and began to rise to the head of his mafia empire.

* KlingonPromotion: After assassinating her husband, she [[TheQueenpin rose to his position]] in his [[TheMafia mafia]] empire.

* RichBitch: As referenced by the [[TheMafia New Mafia]] (mostly Tiziano), she is one.

* TheVamp: Herminia is well known to bed several men and drain them of their riches to amass an even greater fortune than she has. Through prostitution, Herminia also is able to peddle her copious amount of drugs onto willing clients to make them addicted to her services. Despite this, she still was able to oversee the entire operations of [[TheMafia her family]] and presumably used this strategy to recruit potential buyers into funding her [[TheSyndicate underground syndicate]].

* {{Foil}}: Is one to Velnorte in many ways. For one, Velnorte is rebellious and wishes for change while Jurgen is servient and is far too afraid to act unless ordered. Secondly, he is slightly manic when stressed while Velnorte is more level-headed. Additionally, [[spoiler:they both react to the loss of a loved one in different ways too. Jurgen [[DrivenToSuicide becomes suicidally-inclined to enact vengeance on Rinyuu]] while Velnorte is willing to bring about the suffering of others to enact his revenge on Tytos.]]

* KickTheDog: Tytos tends to be callously evil to others, although it's always in response to them failing at a task. This is further [[JustifiedTrope Justified]] given Tytos' [[WellIntentionedExtremist practice of harshly imposing punishments to those he believes could've done better]]. ''[[NotSoWellIntentionedExtremist Even if that means killing them...]]''

* YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre: Schwartz delivers a couple of these speeches to various followers of Auguste to demotivate them and convince them away from Auguste's influence. [[YouDidEverythingYouCould They never work though]] due to the fear or respect Auguste instilled into them.

* DarkAndTroubledPast: [[spoiler:As [[ImpliedTrope implied]] by Simeon, Schwartz was the true personality of Auguste and [[DeathSeeker wished for death the entire time he existed]]. This would make it so he became Auguste out of blinding rage for his former lover being murdered.]]

* TheHedonist: One of the main reasons why Auguste [[SerialKiller became what he did]] in the first place was because he obtained "stimulation" from watching somebody commit a murder-suicide. Afterward, he was motivated to continue these feelings of "stimulation" by continuing to perform such atrocities on others. However, as shown when he poisons a maid, he's finding it harder and harder to get stimulation from simple murder, requiring him to come up with more creative killings.

* {{Masquerade}}: [[spoiler:The entire time, Auguste was secretly disguising himself as the character Schwartz and had his most devout follower playing himself all so that he could [[ManipulativeBastard psychologically manipulate]] the Chosen One.]]

* SuicideByCop: [[spoiler:Auguste planned for the Chosen One to eventually kill him and end his tortured existence as he no longer could bear the suffering he was instilling on others despite [[TheHedonist feeling pleasure for doing so]].]]

* MrExposition: Surprisingly, he's the one to go into depth about Auguste's backstory. Granted, he also immediately claims he just [[ConsummateLiar made up the entire thing]], but it's [[ImpliedTrope implied]] otherwise. [[spoiler: When Sazantos attempts his WeCanRuleTogether in Bestower of All, he reveals that Simeon didn't lie about Auguste's backstory.]]

* YoungAndInCharge: [[VagueAge While her exact age has yet to be stated]], several characters have remarked on her youth on different occasions, which becomes more prevalent after [[spoiler:she's crowned queen of Edoras.]] Her enemies derogatorily refer to her as "a little girl" even after knowing her title due to this.

* DamselInDistress: [[spoiler:Eventually, Elrica is captured by her father and is scheduled to be executed. Naturally, the Chosen One leaps to her rescue.]] [[spoiler:That said, the Chosen One actually fails and Elrica is beheaded as a result.]]

* PrincessClassic: [[spoiler:[[SubvertedTrope Subverted]]; Under the persona of El, Elrica sets out against her own kingdom to end her father's reign.]]

* ShockAndSwitchEnding: [[spoiler:Initially, it may appear that Elrica will be saved from execution by the Sovereign Assembly's ruling, yet they end up voting in favor of Pardis III. Then, it's all up to the Chosen One to save the day and rescue the [[DamselInDistress damsel]].]] [[spoiler:However, the Chosen One actually fails to rescue Elrica and she is subsequently beheaded in front of them by her father. The rest of the storyline then begins to revolve around Alaune as she becomes the Queen of Edoras instead of Elrica.]]

* MyGreatestFailure: [[spoiler: Considers his blind loyalty to Pardis this after he leaves Edoras. He doesn't rejoin the kingdom after Alaune becomes queen due to not wanting to follow another ruler he fears could lead him the wrong way again. He eventually changes his mind when he realizes Alaune is nothing like Pardis, and throws his support back in with Edoras]].
* WanderingTheEarth: [[spoiler: After the events of the "Master of All" story, he decided to leave Edoras and become a traveling warrior to find some kind of meaning. This ends when he returns to Edoras following Pelagia's attack on Grandport]].

* LaughingMad: [[ImpliedTrope Implied]]; while it's not confirmed that Gonska is actually mad, his [[{{Sadist}} habits]] tend to point otherwise.

* BabiesEverAfter: [[spoiler: At the end of Bestower of All, it's revealed he had a child with Alaune. [[RaiseHimRightThisTime The end screen implies that Richard's child is a reincarnated Sazantos]].]]

* TheKingslayer: [[spoiler:Upon seeing King Riven for the first time, he immediately attacks and tries to kill him. This is almost instantly [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]], though, since it's revealed that Charles (as Prince Richard of Riven) realizes the King is a fake and is trying to expose them.]]

The ambitious ruler of Edoras and the [[BigBad main antagonist]] of the Master of All Storyline. His ambition is so great that he ultimately wishes to [[TakeOverTheWorld conquer all of Orsterra]] so that he can prove that he is the most superior person in the world in terms of wealth, power, and fame.

* TheSociopath: An [[AmbitionIsEvil ambitious]] and power-obsessed man, Pardis III has ''zero'' empathy and will not hesitate to kill his own family if he thinks they are impeding his personal goals.

* SatisfiedStreetRat: While she initially was raised on the streets and had an immensely poor quality of life, she's since become accustomed to life in the [[TheMafia New Mafia]].
* TheSmurfettePrinciple: She is the only female member of the [[TheMafia New Mafia]].

* WouldHurtAChild: Implied. [[spoiler: She asks Pierro if Tiziano had any lovers, because a child of his could pose a potential problem for them]].

* BerserkButton: Oskha has a [[HotBlooded fiery dislike]] for money and all the atrocities caused by its acclimation. As such, he tends to get [[SirSwearsALot extremely verbose]] about how much of an evil it is.
* BigBadFriend: [[spoiler:The entire time, Oskha was actually Tiziano and never really cared much for the [[TheMafia New Mafia]]. Even worse, Oskha never really cared for any of the friendships formed in the [[TheMafia New Mafia]] since he was planning on taking them down later if they rose to prominence. He secretly hated Bargello, partially because of his own views of power and wealth, but also because Bargello was a good person inspite of that.]]

* CameBackWrong: [[spoiler:While it may seem like Tiziano was somehow revived and turned into the persona of Oskha, Tiziano never died in the first place. In truth, Oskha merely escaped Herminia's mansion fire and laid in wait for the rest of the members of Hermina's [[TheMafia mafia]] to turn on one another as they vie to become TheDon.]]

* HiddenDisdainReveal: [[spoiler:While he was in the [[TheMafia New Mafia]], Oskha never liked Bargello. In fact, the only reason why Oskha put up with him was that he knew that the latter wished to take down Herminia as much as he did. Oskha actually found Bargello to be a part of the problem seeing as he assumed control of her [[TheMafia Mafia empire]] after her death. His hatred for Bargello seems rooted in being unable to get over how Bargello, despite being poor like he was, gained power and wealth but used it for good.]]

* TheDreaded: After openly declaring war on the entire continent, Empress Tatloch has her minions send an [[BodyHorror individual piece of a disembodied human]] (revealed to be [[spoiler:Chief Kanzas]]) to each of the ruling monarchs of the land. Subsequently, she begins her invasion of Orsterra from pirate ships and begins to wreak havoc on the areas she crosses through.

* KrakenAndLeviathan: [[spoiler: Her transformation is that of an enormous cyclopian kraken, with her original body on top.]]
* MsFanservice: Dark tanned skin, large breasts, purple hair, a very curvy figure, and wears a {{Stripperific}} outfit. Her boss sprites also have plentiful amounts of breast jiggle, even in her monstrous form. [[InvokedTrope Invoked]] and [[ExploitedTrope exploited]] by her to control others via ThePowerOfLust.
* PetTheDog: After [[spoiler:Rinyuu dies in the Gates of Finis]], Tatloch of all people raises the morale of the group by pointing out that, [[spoiler: unlike the undead forms fought up to that point]], [[spoiler:Rinyuu died purifying Velnorte's soul and seemingly letting them move on together]], preventing it from being a SenselessSacrifice.

* {{Stripperific}}: Ultimately, she's not really wearing much clothing to begin with. [[JustifiedTrope Justified]] in that she purposely wears such attire to manipulate her subordinates into submission.

* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: [[spoiler:He ends up trusting the Bestower of Fame over his faith and sets out to help them in their plights even though they're a [[CultOfPersonality cult leader]].]]

* ManipulativeBastard: Not only was she able to evade detection as a cult leader for so long, but she also manipulated Tytos into destabilizing the Church's authority in addition to leading attacks against the Church without being suspected. Furthermore, she was able to hide her plans from Rinyuu the entire time so that she could use her as a [[HumanSacrifice sacrifice]] for Galdera.

* NiceJobFixingItVillain: Her unlocking the Gate of Finis with the Dragonstones four years ago proves vital in the Bestower of All arc when the Guardians of Light are looking for a way to travel to the afterworld. Had she not done that, there would have been no way for the Guardians to take the fight to the True Bestower of All.

The True Bestower of All, Sazantos, is the [[BigBad true final antagonist]] of the game. After the confrontation with Ceraphina and Lyblac, he realized the depths humans will go to in following their desires. Using the God Rings, he now seeks to create a world without those desires.

* SimpleYetAwesome: Rinyuu's main strength as a playable character are two of her moves that provide enormous buffs to the entire team as long as she keeps channeling the skill. This will cost her some SP every turn (said cost can be reduced by Boosting), but once she starts channeling, you can send her to the back row and she'll keep channeling it as long as her SP holds out (which is trivial) and she doesn't get incapacitated. This makes her the ultimate backpack character, provided her paired ally doesn't need to switch to the back row for whatever reason. The only downside is she cannot channel both prayers simultaneously.

* GoodIsNotSoft: While he's sympathetic to the desire to offer mercy, he can be ruthless in his decision making. In particular, he's among those who [[spoiler:advocates for Tatloch's execution, citing as a counterpoint to Solon's logic[[note]]that they should spare her to avoid provoking G'roha[[/note]] that their priority should be the very current and real problem in front of them--pacifying the people of Donescu, who have every reason to want Tatloch dead--rather than a hypothetical that may never happen]].

* ChildByRape: Chapter 6, Part 2 of the Bestower Of All arc reveals that Sazantos was the child of a cleric named Farame, who had the ability to wield the sacred flame and was supposed to become the Flameguard. However, she refused since she wanted to raise a family and live peacefully. The Church decided to force her to conceive a child that could wield the sacred flame, with Sazantos being born as a result of this. The story that Sazantos found makes it quite clear that Farame was raped in order to conceive him. Additionally, Sazantos was the fourth out of four children that Farame gave birth to, with the other three being disposed of since they did not bear the sacred flame.

* TheFettered: Bargello has a strong sense of morality (despite being in [[TheMafia the mafia]]) and acts predominantly upon his code of honor. Granted, he shows a strong protection instinct for other members of the [[TheMafia New Mafia]] which tends to override his views of events.

* MeetTheNewBoss: [[AvertedTrope Averted]]; Bargello actually takes efforts to improve the quality of life for Valore after he assumes control over Herminia's [[TheMafia mafia]]. In fact, one of the first things he does is disestablish her drug trading ring, and make sure to go after those who would try to make things worse.
* RagtagBunchOfMisfits: Is the leader of one.

* TagAlongKid: While not technically a kid, he's much younger than the other members of the [[TheMafia New Mafia]].
* SayMyName: Screams Tiziano's name multiple times [[spoiler: as Tiziano is dying from being tortured by Herminia]]. [[spoiler: Then again when Tiziano reveals that he's Oshka]].

* HyperCompetentSidekick: Out of everyone in Bargello's mafia family, she's easily the best at gathering information and coming up with plans, yet she still defers to Bargello himself.

* SirSwearsALot: Especially concerning sexual matters or money.

* SayMyName: Screams Tiziano's name multiple times [[spoiler: as Tiziano is dying from being tortured by Herminia]].

* TheSmurfettePrinciple: She is the only female member of the [[TheMafia New Mafia]].

* ThatManIsDead: Oskha might be alive and well, but [[spoiler: for all intents and purposes, Tiziano died in Herminia's Manse]]. In Chapter 2 of Bestower Of Wealth arc, [[spoiler:he tells Pierro that [[InventedIndividual Tiziano was always a farce]], and spends the rest of the story laughing at the heroes attempts to speak to him like he was Tiziano.]]

* DistressedDamsel: She just can't catch a break. When she alongside the playable collab characters are spirited away from Lucrece to Orsterra, she ends up trapped within an illusionary world with a mobster threatening to break her limbs before Oersted, Streibough and The Chosen One rescue her, then while accompanying the heroes in Orsterra, she's snatched away to an illusionary Archon's Roost, and at the end of the first part of the collab, she, alongside the rest, are teleported away from each other [[spoiler:due to Odio possessing Streibough.]]

The late mother of Elrica and Alaune, wife of Pardis III, and sister of Eltrix. Originally from Grandport, she married King Pardis II to keep Edoras from conquering them.

* HeadTurningBeauty: Francesca is regarded as one of the prettiest women across all of the Flatlands and is envied by many others for her grace & beauty. Her [[spoiler:boss sprite]] shows it isn't just InformedAttractiveness, as she has an ample bust and curvy figure.

* ConflictingLoyalty: By the finale of the "Master of All" story, it's clear Krauser is conflicted over what he should do as Pardis becomes increasingly more cruel and spiteful. While he disagrees with Pardis, and doesn't want to hurt [[spoiler: Alanue]], he feels somewhat in-debt to Pardis, and wants to find meaning in some way. Though he maintains loyalty to Pardis, as soon as Pardis is defeated, Krauser [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere decides he's done with Edoras]] and leaves. [[spoiler:He only returns once Alaune proves herself to be a capable and just ruler]].

* WanderingTheEarth: [[spoiler: After the events of the "Master of All" story, he decided to leave Edoras and become a traveling warrior to find some kind of meaning. This ends when he returns to Edoras following Pelagia's attack on Granport]].

The mother of Elrica and Alaune, and wife of Pardis III. Sister of Eltrix.

* AnnoyingLaugh: He has one which tends to come out on its own.

[[folder:El]]
[[quoteright:185:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/l_0.png]]
A mysterious swordsman who travels the world attempting to do good. Somehow, he has come to know about important political information and seems to know more than he lets on.

* BystanderSyndrome: Although El is heroic, his focus on his goal at first makes him willing to just ignore what happens around him. Charles lightly calls him out on this, since El is willing to ignore people needing aide at first, convincing El to reconsider.
* TheDrifter: El happens to just meander around the world hoping to do good. He mostly frequents Edoras (the kingdom he was born in) since he knows of Pardis III's evil and wishes to bring aid to its citizens.
* {{Foil}}: To Charles. The latter is much more outgoing than El's reserved attitude and the two often come to different outlooks on the same event. Granted, there are many similarities between the two as well. For one, [[spoiler:they're both [[KingIncognito actually royalty]] disguising themselves as traveling warriors]], they're both encountered by the Chosen One after they help out somebody on their travels (a practice both of them share regularly), and they both share a mutual dislike for Pardis III in addition to being swordsmen. The difference is that El is focused on a goal that results in him getting a degree of tunnel vision, while Charles lacks a goal, but is more willing to focus on different things when they happen.
* MysteriousStranger: El initially comes off as this. Not only is he privy to some secret knowledge that he shouldn't know, but he also doesn't tell much of his past.

!!Richard H. Riven

* TheKingslayer: [[spoiler:Upon seeing King Riven for the first time, he immediately attacks him with an intent to kill. This is almost instantly [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]] though since Charles (as the prince of Riven) realizes that the King is a fake and attacks them out of a desire to expose them.]]

* SpannerInTheWorks: [[spoiler:Charles completely ruins Pardis and Gonska's plans thanks to being Prince Richard. His reappearance allows him to expose Gonska as the fake King Riven, and take the throne of Riven. Thanks to this, he is able to reinforce Altinia and the Edoras army in taking down Pardis, allowing the Ringbear Chosen to confront and defeat Pardis.]]

* TheWorfEffect: Charles is a skilled warrior, consistently shown being a warrior on par with El on the frontlines. To demonstrate that Pardis III is a threat even when backed into a corner, [[spoiler:Charles, now revealed to be Prince Richard,]] is forced to pull back during the finale of the "Master of All" story when he is injured, demonstrating that even he isn't enough to defeat Pardis in a fight.

* FusionDance: Of the seven corrupted God Rings, Signa's soul and Sazantos.

A shepherd who becomes a resident of Nameless Town. Always accompanied by his pet sheep, and wears a cloak that makes him look like a ram. The player can obtain fleece from him and his sheep daily to sell for cash.

A talking Cait who sends the player daily letters with [[PremiumCurrency Rubies]]. Resides in the Tower of Remembrance.

* HurricaneOfPuns: Isla gives a cat pun with just about every sentence.
* PungeonMaster: Isla can barely go a sentence without making some kind of cat pun.
* TokenHeroicOrc: In both games Caits are [[MetalSlime rare monsters]] that drop a large amount of loot and experience. Isla, however, is very friendly and highly intelligent.

!!Others
[[folder:Airy - ''Bravely Default'' Spoilers Unmarked]]
See ''Characters/BravelyDefaultDivineBeings''.

* TheCorruptor: Airy manipulates the people in Nameless Town by creating Dark Asterisks and messing with their minds, making them do things that are very out-of-character.
* DeathIsCheap: Despite seemingly being slain by Agnès and her allies at the end of ''VideoGame/BravelyDefault'', Airy is still alive and causing trouble in Orsterra. She also tells the heroes that [[MesACrowd there are as many of her as there are worlds]], so there's virtually no getting rid of her permanently.
* KarmaHoudini: Upon being defeated by the Chosen One, she disappears and vows to return.
* LateArrivalSpoiler: Those who haven't played ''VideoGame/BravelyDefault'' will learn of Airy's betrayal and manipulation of Agnès and Edea when playing through Elvis's Traveler Story.
* NoSell: Airy starts her battle with a barrier that negates any attacks that don't hit her weaknesses; in fact, non-weakness attacks will heal her instead. This barrier goes away once the player inflicts a Break on her.
* WalkingSpoiler: One can't really talk about Airy without spoiling her role in ''VideoGame/BravelyDefault''.

[[folder:Princess Alethea]]
See ''Characters/LiveALiveMiddleAgesAndSpoilerCharacters''.

* DemonicPossession: [[spoiler:She notes that Odio swooped down upon her and Streibough in the form of dark flames, taking over both their bodies and forcing her to do his bidding.]]
* DistressedDamsel: She just can't catch a break. When she alongside the playable collab characters are spirited away from Lucrece to Orsterra, she ends up trapped within an illusionary world with a mobster threatening to break her limbs before Oersted, Streibough and The Chosen One rescue her, then while accompanying the heroes in Orsterra, she's snatched away to an illusionary Archon's Roost, and at the end of the first part of the collab, she, alongside the rest, are teleported away from each other [[spoiler:due to Odio possessing Streibough.]]
* SpannerInTheWorks: True to her role in her home game, [[spoiler:she awakens and rescues The Chosen One from the void of nothingness that Odio-S sent them to, transporting them back to help Oersted stop Odio for good.]]
* WalkingSpoiler: Especially when considering her role in ''Live A Live''.

[[folder:Odio - '''Spoilers Unmarked''']]
See ''Characters/LiveALiveMiddleAgesAndSpoilerCharacters''.

->'''Rarity:''' 5*\\
'''Influence:''' Power\\

Five maidens charged with protecting the divine rings on the Isle of Orsa. They are Pathos the Thumb, Theoria the Index Finger, Philia the Middle Finger, Apatheia the Ring Finger, and Signa the Little Finger.

[[folder:The Dark Vestal]]

The loyal right hand of Sazantos.

* BarelyChangedDubName: Though pronounced the same way, her name was originally spelled and romanized as "Cygna" in the original Japanese version.

* FaceHeelTurn: Originally one of the maidens of Orsa charged with sealing away the God Rings, she serves Sazantos when he betrays everyone.

* LukeIAmYourFather: [[spoiler:Rinyuu is actually the illegitimate child of Graham Crossford during his time in the Knights Ardante.]]
* NonActionGuy: Can't fight to save her life. This becomes humorous in the Bestower of All arc when she becomes one of the eight Guardians of Light who are all powerful warriors and rulers, and then there's Rinyuu who's great at making stew and not much else. She takes it stride and hopes that at least her meals will make everyone happy. [[spoiler:It pays off when Tatloch is convinced to help the Guardians of Light because of Rinyuu offering her stew.]] [[AvertedTrope Averted]] as a playable character.

* TheLancer: He's the [[RedOniBlueOni Red Oni counterpart]] to [[TheLeader Sazantos]] and the overall Lancer of the crew they assemble against the Bestower of Fame.

* BoringButPractical: As a playable character, Rinyuu provides SP regeneration to the entire front row and reduces their SP costs by 10% as long as she remains in the back row. This isn't flashy, but is universally useful.

* MagikarpPower: Zigzagged. As a playable character, each time Tatloch uses an ability, she gains a Vigor point. At 3, 6, and 9 Vigor points, she provides bonuses to the front row. However, even before reaching these thresholds, Tatloch is still powerful.

* MagikarpPower: Nephti's entire gimmick revolves around repeatedly using her LimitBreak to increase her Support Points. As she does this, her abilities gain increased potency and provide additional effects once she reaches a sufficient number of Support Points, making her an extremely powerful party member for long, drawn-out fights, though she's less useful for short battles.

* DifficultButAwesome: Rinyuu's main strength as a playable character are two of her moves that provide enormous buffs to the front row as long as she keeps channeling the skill. This will cost her some SP every turn (said cost can be reduced by Boosting) and will force her to stay in the front row, which prevents her paired ally from doing anything and presents the obvious risk that she could be taken out (not helped by her poor durability). She also cannot channel both of the aforementioned moves simultaneously, and keeping her in the front row means her two passives won't do anything (they only work when she's in the back row). When used properly, however, Rinyuu is considered one of the strongest support characters in the game, providing excellent healing, stat buffs, and immunities to various status effects.

* CanonWelding: The event that features him implies a connection between him and Galdera, with Galdera being a possible incanarnation of Odio, or Galdera being the power behind Odio.

* FourthWallObserver: The only character capable AddressingThePlayer instead of talking to the Chosen One, as they [[MrExposition provide]] most of in-game tutorials.

* FatalFlaw: Pride. Eltrix's family has been singlehandedly protecting Grandport for generations with nothing but their own strength, leadership, and trust in their comrades. Because of this, she initially scoffs at Alaune's request for an alliance as, even disregarding her grudge against Edoras, she genuinely believes she doesn't need outside help to defend her city. [[spoiler:Its only when Pelagia attacks Grandport that Eltrix realizes that, yes, sometimes she ''does'' need outside help.]]

* MisplacedRetribution: She hates Edoras due to Pardis' actions forcing her sister to not only enter a marriage to save Grandport, but also her sacrificing herself to protect her children. Due to this, she holds a lot of animosity towards Alaune, almost entirely because Alaune is the queen of Edoras. She even claims she'll never help fight back against Tatloch on the grounds that Edoras took her sister from her. It takes Alaune and the Ringbearer pushing Pelagia back for her to reconsider her views.

* BlackAndWhiteInsanity: His views of wealth fall into this as the story goes on. He basically sees having wealth and power as being evil, and assumes that anyone using it is also evil. When challenged on this, he refuses to consider otherwise, and gets violently angry when people point out the simple fact that it isn't that simple.
