| 11 | Once trampled upon by an unnamed gang, the Knight was rescued and was inspired to become a hero and beacon of hope in a world of darkness. While their sense of justice is strong, their willingness to do good makes them come off as arrogant to the eyes of their fellow squires. |
| 12 | ---- |
| 13 | * KnightInShiningArmor: Aspires to be this, for the good of their people as a whole. This attitude, though, isn't quite appreciated by the academy and comes off as arrogance. |
| 14 | * LightEmUp: Has a cone-shaped attack that strikes enemies down with holy light. |
| 15 | * LuckilyMyShieldWillProtectMe: They have a skill that lets them put their shield up, essentially making it a guarding stance. |
| 16 | * ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight: The major plot of the Knight's prologue, where they insist on helping a fellow squire who is too exhausted to keep up with their training, earning them the ire of their superior. |
| 17 | * ShieldBash: Has a dash attack that charges at the enemy shield-forward. |
| 18 | * StoneWall: While they do carry some offensive abilities (though not to the extent of other classes), they are the sword-and-shield tank. |
| 19 | * ThrowingYourShieldAlwaysWorks: A skill of theirs pitches their shield in a straight line in front of them, which then flies back, effectively hitting the enemy twice. |

| 27 | |
| 28 | A youth who holds access to an immense dark power. The Berserker is, in reality, a human who has an ancient and powerful demon sealed within him, whose powers could potentially cause TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt. Abandoned at birth by his birth parents who feared the darkness in him, he was rescued and adopted by Ten, one of the seven heroes of the Maple World. Raised alongside his adoptive sister Lilin on the remote polar island of Rien, the Berserker eventually sets his sights on defeating his father in combat in hopes of proving his absolute strength. When Ten is summoned by the Empress and doesn't return, the Berserker departs for the mainland in hopes of finding his missing father. |
| 29 | ---- |
| 30 | * AttackAttackAttack: The Berserker's design philosophy is "the best offense makes the best defense", befitting of a BloodKnight. His entire gameplay style revolves around regulating HP while charging in and breaking down enemies as fast as possible with high DPS and power regardless of other factors, and with access to the Dark Aura passive which gives practically limitless Spirit, the Berserker can maintain almost indefinite offense until either he or the enemy dies, whichever comes first. |
| 31 | * TheBerserker: Of course. |
| 32 | * BloodKnight: The Berserker makes it ''very'' clear how much they love fighting. |
| 33 | * CastingAShadow: The following skills deal dark damage: ''Death Spin'', ''Raging Slash'', ''Void Slash'' and ''Dark Breaker''. |
| 34 | * CastFromHitPoints: Blood Price buffs their attack power, but causes them to lose Health with each hit they land. |
| 35 | * CursedWithAwesome: Being the vessel to a demon mostly translates to powerful combat abilities. {{Lampshaded}} by voice line when idle: |
| 36 | --> '''Male Berserker:''' I'm fine with the curse, if it makes me this strong! |
| 37 | * DarkIsNotEvil: His/Her powers are mostly darkness-based, but while the Berserker displays violent tendencies, he/she is an AntiHero at worst. |
| 38 | * DifficultButAwesome: Their optimal playstyle is to deliberately reduce their HP with Blood Price, which activates their Adrenaline Rush passive, boosting their Spirit regeneration so they can spam their strongest attacks. |
| 39 | * HairTriggerTemper: During the prologue, Lilin instructs the Berserker to gather flowers to control his/her temper. This works out for a while, until the Berserker accidentally destroys the flowers. He/She immediately flies into a rage and destroys the entire flower patch. |
| 40 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Despite his vitriolic relationship with Lilin and Ten, the Berserker appears to truly care for his adoptive family. |
| 41 | * LifeDrain: Bloodlust heals a large portion of their health if it connects, on top of dealing heavy damage. |
| 42 | %%* MightyGlacier: High attack and defense. (How do they have low speed?) |
| 43 | * SealedInsideAPersonShapedCan: The Berserker's own body acts as the can for the demon inside of him. Incidentally, this is also where he draws his dark powers from. |

| 50 | While training to join the Henesys Green Hoods, the Archer was betrayed by their fellow student Haster and seemingly left for dead at the hands of the Dark Lord. After waking up, they found that Haster has left them with the Bronze Eagle, and they set out to investigate the reason for his betrayal. |
| 51 | ---- |
| 52 | * AnnoyingArrows: Their damage.... isn't the best to say the least. |
| 53 | * ArrowsOnFire: ''Rapid Shot'' continuously shoots flaming arrows which pierce through enemies. |
| 54 | * AttackAnimal: The Bronze Eagle, who was once Haster's pet before being donated to you after his betrayal. It is summoned by scoring a CriticalHit, which boosts your dexterity, and once summoned it can be ordered to attack with ''Eagle Claw'' and ''Eagle's Majesty''. |
| 55 | * ChargedAttack: ''Screwdriver Shot'' can be held for up to one second, greatly increasing its damage based on the level of charge. |
| 56 | * DeathByAThousandCuts: Their attack stat isn't the highest, but they make up for it with skills that deal damage insanely fast for as long as the skill key is held down. |
| 57 | * FireWaterJuxtaposition: The Archer can shoot 3 arrows with different techniques resulting in two elemental skills: Fire by shooting in quick succession (''Rapid Shot'') and Ice by releasing them in different directions (''Ice Arrow''). |
| 58 | * AnIcePerson: ''Ice Arrow'' shoots three freezing arrows that deal less damage, but slow down affected enemies, freezing them solid after stacking the slow enough times. |
| 59 | * LongRangeFighter: Obviously, as bow-wielders, they prefer to stay further away from the action. The long range of their attacks allows them to stay out of harm's way, compensating for their poor durability and mobility. |
| 60 | * RainOfArrows: ''Arrow Storm'', one of their skills, causes arrows to rain down over a sizeable area for several seconds, constantly damaging enemies. |
| 61 | * SpinAttack: ''Bow Swing'' has you bash the enemies around you with your bow, [[LiterallyShatteredLives dealing bonus damage to frozen targets]]. |
| 62 | * StatusBuff: ''Sharp Eyes'' increases the critical rate and accuracy of allies. |
| 63 | * TheStraightAndArrowPath: Wields bow and arrows as their weapons. |

| 72 | An engineer who was about to power the whole town of Edelstein with a magic-surpassing fusion core, only to get foiled by The Resistance's antics. The resulting explosion angered the mayor and he demanded compensation for the destruction caused by the Heavy Gunner, but Ladin steps up and agreed to pay for the damages in return for rebuilding the fusion core while running a few errands. |
| 73 | ---- |
| 74 | * {{BFG}}: Their forte. However, as it is technically a long-ranged weapon, they are categorized as Bowmen in-game. |
| 75 | * ChargedAttack: ''Electric Blast'' can be held up to one second to deal great electric damage. |
| 76 | * CombatMedic: Can learn the skill ''Med Kit'', which drops a first aid kit that heals anyone who picks it up. |
| 77 | * CompositeCharacter: Mixes characteristics of several "Pirate" classes from ''[=MapleStory=]'', such as the Cannoneer, Gunslinger, and Mechanic. |
| 78 | * GatlingGood: Starts with ''Bullet Spray'' and ''Gatling Fire'', two skills that hit many times for a small percentage of damage. |
| 79 | * GlassCannon: Hits hard, but has a low HP stat. |
| 80 | * InsufferableGenius: Several pieces of dialogue give them a rather arrogant tone. |
| 81 | -->"Such a difficult question...do I even have flaws?" |
| 82 | -->"I hope I can handle the fame that is coming." |
| 83 | * {{Irony}}: The Heavy Gunner is depicted as a tech-savvy genius that constantly boasts about how important science is, yet Intelligence is actually one of their ''weakest'' stats. |
| 84 | * LightningFireJuxtaposition: Besides attacking with bullets, the Heavy Gunner can either use magnetism[[labelnote:Skill]]''Magnetic Bomb''[[/labelnote]] or plasma[[labelnote:Skills]]''Electric Blast'' and ''Suborbital Bombardment''[[/labelnote]] to deal Electric damage, or launch Missiles[[labelnote:Skills]]''Rocket Launcher'', ''Homing Missiles'' and ''M-Bomb''[[/labelnote]] or set Explosives[[labelnote:Skill]]''Stun Grenades''[[/labelnote]] to deal Fire damage. |
| 85 | * ScreamsLikeALittleGirl: Using the surprise emote sometimes causes the male Heavy Gunner to let out a high-pitched shriek. |
| 86 | * WeUsedToBeFriends: Their introduction shows a photo of the Heavy Gunner in a school as classmates with Claudine, the four job instructors, and Xenon of ''Videogame/MapleStory'', however their prologue quest in the present day has them being at odds with the Resistance, as the latter wants to take the Heavy Gunner's technology to abolish magic. |

| 94 | |
| 95 | A student of the Ellinel Magic School who doesn't attend classes much. Though a regular class cutter, to the annoyance of Einos, underneath their spacey attitude is an astounding amount of untapped potential and surprisingly high grades. Their casual outlook on school irks class president Kaitlynn, who sees them as a rival in the classroom. One magic duel and a razed classroom later, the Wizard is then sent out on a journey to become an archmage... even though said trip was booked far in advance. |
| 96 | ---- |
| 97 | * BrilliantButLazy: To the point that their prologue is called The Lazy Genius. They hate being cooped up in a classroom and frequently skip classes, but as Einos points out, they don't ''need'' classes to bring out their talent. |
| 98 | * CompositeCharacter: The Wizard in ''[=MapleStory 2=]'' is essentially a mixture of the two separate Wizard/Mage classes from ''[=MapleStory=]'', the one that specializes in fire and poison and the one that specializes in ice and lightning respectively. |
| 99 | * FireIceLightning: Their elements of choice in the skill repertoire. |
| 100 | * GeniusDitz: The prologue presents the wizard as someone who's a bit airheaded and skips out on classes, yet still does extremely well in exams and has great potential in magic. |
| 101 | * KickedUpstairs: The Wizard is given an opportunity to become an archmage, though since Einos booked that journey in advance, it's clear the ulterior motive was so he doesn't have to deal with the Wizard's truancy in the classroom. |
| 102 | * PlayingWithFire: As displayed in the prologue, where a female Wizard set fire to a forest and later the classroom in a magic duel. This underlines the raw potential the Wizard has, and this power is also responsible for blowing up the classroom. |
| 103 | * SquishyWizard: Like in the first game, their defense and health stats leave a lot to be desired. |
| 104 | * {{Whatevermancy}}: Can learn passive skills Pyromancy, Cryomancy and Electromancy, which give further boost to fire, ice and electric spells, respectively. |

| 111 | A young and upcoming Guardian Priest, a mage specialized in healing and support magic who is deigned to serve the will of the light. Brash and reckless, the Priest has long been the subject of many a harsh word from Allon, the commanding officer supporting the base at the Shadow Gate. When an altercation with Turka, one of the Black Mage's commanders, nearly kills him, the Priest decides to wander the world in hopes of proving himself to Allon and the world. |
| 112 | ---- |
| 113 | * DivergentCharacterEvolution: In ''[=MapleStory=]'', the Priest acted as a promoted class for the Cleric class, which in turn was one of the possible promoted classes for the Magician class. In ''[=MapleStory 2=]'', they are now classified as an independent class with their own set of skills and backstory. |
| 114 | * HealingHands: As the name suggests, this class specializes in healing. |
| 115 | * LightEmUp: From divine lightning to bursts of holy light, they've got that in tow. |
| 116 | * StuffBlowingUp: One of their starting Actives is Holy Blast, which creates a medium-ranged Light explosion around them. If a target is afflicted with Celestial Light, hitting them with Holy Blast causes a chain reaction that creates a smaller explosion for each enemy afflicted with Celestial Light. |
| 117 | * WhiteMage: Specializes in healing and holy skills. |

| 126 | * CastFromMoney: One of their skills, Mesoguard Plus, costs 777 meso to activate, unless they are under the effect of Cunning. |
| 127 | * JustLikeRobinHood: Their intro has them break into the bank and throwdown against the authorities to escape with a huge stack of cash. Most of the money they manage to get away with, though, goes to the denizens of the slums they dwell in. Kyle, however, doesn't approve of this behavior, and uses this reasoning to throw them out of town. |
| 128 | * MasterPoisoner: Can conjure poison as a skill to either coat their daggers with or splash at a group of enemies. |
| 129 | * ReformedCriminal: Though heroic, they're still a crook in the eyes of the authorities. After being cast out of their home town, they're attempting to stay out of the underground business and using their knife skills to do honest work. |

| 140 | * EmotionSuppression: Subjected to this when they were a Rook. This eventually came undone by the time the game begins. |

| 341 | Class president of Ellinel Magic School. She possesses a haughty demeanor and belittles everyone except herself, but is head over heels for Einos, the class professor. Kaitlynn inadvertently gets herself involved in the conflict when a situation arises involving the professor. |
| 342 | ---- |
| 343 | * AcademicAlphaBitch: She's the smartest student in the school, knows it, and won't hesitate to rub it in. She looks down on the rest of the students, either for not being on her level, or in the Wizard's case, for being a threat to her superiority. |
| 344 | * AnIcePerson: Dominantly uses ice magic during the magic duel. |
| 345 | * DefrostingIceQueen: Belittles the player at first, but slowly warms up to them over the course of the Ellinia arc. After the player [[spoiler:saves Einos]], she fully respects them and offers her help with minimal complaint. |
| 346 | * TheRival: To the playable Wizard, albeit one-sided. Kaitlynn despises the Wizard for their high grades despite not putting any effort into their studies; the Wizard is completely oblivious to her animosity. |
| 347 | * TeacherStudentRomance: She ''really'' wants to be the teacher's pet, complete with...ahem, private study lessons. She's even starry-eyed for him in the prologue. It doesn't go anywhere beyond her swooning, however. |

| 370 | ---- |
| 371 | * ArrogantKungFuGuy: He takes immense pride in his strength, but his short temper and inability to admit his shortcomings lead him down the path of failure. |
| 372 | * InferioritySuperiorityComplex: He wasn't born into the tribe and secretly worries that they don't fully accept him; his self-importance seems to be him trying to compensate. His discovery that he's [[spoiler:descended from the Inakimo]] magnifies these fears. |

| 382 | * MissionControl: She serves as this during Maple Alliance missions. |
| 383 | [[/folder]] |

| 395 | [[folder:Schatten]] |
| 396 | [[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ms2schatten.png]] |
| 397 | The intelligence expert of Sky Fortress, and the Dark Wind faction leader. |
| 398 | ---- |
| 399 | * AmbiguouslyBi: She flirts with the player regardless of gender, and also seems to have a thing for Nairin. |
| 400 | * AntiHero: She refers to some of her ''less'' questionable methods as "morally justifiable crime". Nonetheless, she's working for the good of Maple World and has the trust of Blackeye and Ereve. |
| 401 | * TheCracker: One of her specialties. Early on she enlists the player's help in hacking into a group of servers transmitting important data. |
| 402 | * JackBauerInterrogationTechnique: Her preferred method of extracting information, though she's currently forbidden from using it. |
| 403 | * MissionControl: She serves as this during Dark Wind missions. |

| 410 | * MissionControl: He serves as this during Imperial Vanguard missions. |

| 415 | [[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ms2mason.png]] |
| 416 | The templar of Sky Fortress, and the Lumiknights faction leader. |
| 417 | ---- |
| 418 | * BunnyEarsLawyer: His chuuni tendencies make it very hard to take him seriously, but there's a good reason he was chosen to represent the Lumiknights. |
| 419 | * {{Chuunibyou}}: He loves telling stories about the dark powers, evil weapons, and unfortunate curses he totally, definitely has, usually using them as excuses for why he can't perform some task he's obviously capable of. Interestingly, he is a genuinely skilled magic user with some very impressive powers, just not the dark and edgy ones he claims to have. |
| 420 | * TheFriendNobodyLikes: Seems to be one for the Sky Fortress crew. Condor argues with him constantly, the player character insults him to his face, and if the faction message boards are anything to go by, not even his fellow Lumiknights want anything to do with him. |
| 421 | * MissionControl: He serves as this during Lumiknights missions. |
| 422 | [[/folder]] |
| 423 | |
| 424 | [[folder:Tristan]] |
| 425 | Former leader of the Royal Knights. For centuries, his family has fought the Crimson Balrogs. |
| 426 | ---- |
| 427 | * SixthRanger: He isn't an official faction leader and wasn't chosen to be part of Sky Fortress' crew. Instead, he volunteered his services once he learned he and the Alliance were fighting a common enemy. |
| 428 | [[/folder]] |
| 429 | |
| 430 | !!Frontier Foundation |

| 432 | A young heiress who was inspired to create the Frontier Foundation after the player saved her life in the Siege of Tria. |
| 433 | ---- |
| 434 | * StalkerWithACrush: She's fallen for the player and insists that they are "hers". She never does anything too dangerous, but the player character is still very creeped out. |
| 435 | [[/folder]] |
| 436 | |
| 437 | [[folder:Pemberton]] |

| 450 | A dragon-obsessed wizard whose expertise is called upon by the Foundation. |
| 451 | ---- |
| 452 | * AdmiringTheAbomination: While on the search for Lukarax, she's awestruck by its power compared to lesser dragons and frequently geeks out about it, before reminding herself that it's a monster she's supposed to be hunting down. |
| 453 | * AscendedExtra: She was originally just an NPC in Tria who offered tips to the Wizard class, but became a major player in the ''Awakening'' plotline. |
| 454 | * {{Fangirl}}: Of dragons. She knows everything about them and geeks out at the slightest opportunity. |
| 455 | * HeroismIncentive: She initially refuses to help because of her aversion to field work. Beatrice has to bribe her with a very rare and expensive dragon figurine. |
| 456 | [[/folder]] |

| 458 | !Antagonists |
| 459 | [[folder:The Black Mage]] |
| 460 | [[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ms2blackmage.png]] |
| 461 | The main villain of the game, ala the first game. |
| 462 | |
| 463 | Tropes applying to his incarnation in the first game are [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Characters/MapleStoryEnemies here.]] |
| 464 | ---- |
| 465 | * BigBad: Naturally. |
| 466 | * FallenHero: [[spoiler:It's all but stated that he is Cerian, the leader of the seven heroes. Though they don't do a good job of hiding it, seeing as he takes off his hood in the Priest's prologue.]] |
| 467 | * WellIntentionedExtremist: Seems to be more pronounced here, seeing as he explicitly mentions trying to "save" the world in the opening of the Priest's story. |
| 468 | * WingedHumanoid: His design has wings now. |
| 469 | [[/folder]] |
| 470 | |
| 471 | [[folder:Turka]] |
| 472 | One of the Black Mage's commanders, and the one the player runs into the most across the main story. |
| 473 | ---- |
| 474 | * FauxAffablyEvil: He's polite and all, and also fully aware of what he's working for. |
| 475 | * TheDragon: Does the most out of any of the other commanders in the main story. |
| 476 | * TheGrimReaper: The scythe gives him this image. |
| 477 | * SpannerInTheWorks: [[spoiler:Him giving Katvan a shadow seed directly sets off the chain of events that allows Eve to warn Ereve of the attack on Tria and prevent the city from falling.]] |
| 478 | * SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: He could be one to Arkarium, as TheDragon who seems to be the villain's right hand. |
| 479 | [[/folder]] |
| 480 | |
| 481 | [[folder:Bella]] |
| 482 | [[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ms2bella.png]] |

| 484 | ---- |
| 485 | * FreudianExcuse: [[spoiler:Her father was never around, and she eventually stumbled down the path of evil.]] |
| 486 | * SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: Her name, appearance, and status as the Black Mage's loyal sorceress makes her one of Hilla. |
| 487 | * WhenYouComingHomeDad: [[spoiler:She blames her father for abandoning his family for his job, despite the fact that he still loved them dearly.]] |
| 488 | [[/folder]] |
| 489 | |
| 490 | [[folder:Madria]] |

| 492 | Bella's partner in crime. |
| 493 | ---- |
| 494 | * EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: [[spoiler:She had a loving relationship with her father, who sought the empire's help to treat her when she fell ill. The empire refused to help, and the entire family perished from the disease. Her father and the family servants are now vengeful spirits whose rage fuels the seal on Madrakan Castle, protecting it and therefore Madria from attack]]. |
| 495 | * PsychopathicWomanchild: She has a very childish manner of speaking and seems to view her massacres as a sort of game. When she's denied a chance to kill the player, she reacts like a child who's been asked to put her toys away. |
| 496 | * {{Stripperific}}: In the Southeast Asian versions of the game, she wears a cape with no top underneath, and extremely short, skintight shorts that almost look like underwear. The global release edited the shorts into a one-piece that covers her torso. This only applies to her character portraits, however; her model remains untouched. |
| 497 | [[/folder]] |
| 498 | |
| 499 | [[folder:Pathos]] |
| 500 | A dark entity that split off from Einos. |
| 501 | ---- |
| 502 | * EnemyWithout: He is the dark half of Einos. [[spoiler:When Einos, as Maple World's Innocent, chose the path of light, Pathos emerged as a separate being. Einos is the "true" Innocent, but Pathos can reverse the roles by taking control of the former's body.]] |
| 503 | [[/folder]] |
| 504 | |
| 505 | [[folder:Infernog]] |
| 506 | The ruler of the Simfernals, Infernog is a massive demon who commands apocalyptic power. |
| 507 | ---- |
| 508 | * BloodMagic: His power is in his blood, literally - he's only at his full strength when every last drop is inside his body. |
| 509 | * TheDreaded: The Alliance and Tristan are terrified of what he could do to Maple World, and the Crimson Balrogs are terrified of what he could do to ''them''. |
| 510 | * SealedEvilInACan: He can't be killed, but draining his blood renders him dormant. The heroes who defeated him in the past sealed portions of his blood away in multiple places to prevent it from being gathered into one place. |
| 511 | * SealedInsideAPersonShapedCan: Technically for a brief while, after Tristan drinks some of his blood. |
| 512 | [[/folder]] |
| 513 | |
| 514 | [[folder:Varrekant]] |
