Katrien
The dead wife of the Warlock, reanimated as a dream creature. Uses swords. Her emergency character is a saber-and-pistol soldier.
- Heroes Prefer Swords: The one with the most plot investment and her weapon of choice is a one-handed sword.
- The Lost Lenore: She is this to the Warlock, hence why the Warlock dreamt her back into existence.
- Master Swordsman: In life she took an interest in her family's history of piracy and mastered the art of fencing. She continues to wield a rapier as she fights through the Abyss.
The Ghost Monk
The accumulation of all the soldiers who died in the Abyss, forming a medieval swordmaster. Uses greatswords. His emergency character is an axe-and-blunderbuss firefighter.
- Many Spirits Inside of One: Is an odd take on the trope, being "Many Spirits Making One". He's the embodiment of all those who've lost their lives to the abyss.
- Mighty Glacier: Does a lot of knockdown to his foes, and has lots of health, but his attacks are slow.
La Pincoya
The maiden of the sea, who brings luck to sailors and can be likened to a mermaid. Uses polearms. Her emergency character is a spear-and-grenade officer.
El Ejército de Chile
The ones responsible for the safety of Chile, and the first to respond to the Abyss attacks.
- Assist Character: A few of them may appear to help you in fights, especially if you have died at least once.
- Badass Normal: They are not too far behind the main characters, and share experience levels. Some of them made it close to the bottom by themselves.
- The Musketeer: 1600's-to-1800's-style soldiers with swords and guns.
Niccolò Paganini
A famous violinist from the early 1800's who sold his soul to the devil in exchange for greater violin powers.
- Deal with the Devil: The Warlock took an interest in rumors of Paganini making a deal with the devil to gain musical talent. As such, his dream of Paganini definitely did.
- The player can also make one with him as well, accepting a gift in exchange for taking on some of his curse and having to fight him later on.
- Historical Domain Character: Played with. Paganini was a real violinist, but the version that comes from the Abyss is the product of the Warlock's impression of the historical figure.
The Jackal
An undead guitar player who offers quips of wisdom for 100 coins. He also appears as an agile enemy with really good AI.
The Warlock
A sleeping Warlock whose nightmares create the Abyss.
- Apocalyptic Log: You can find pages of his journal that describe his journey from his initial interest in magic to the events leading to his creating the Abyss.
- Dual Boss: You fight two abstracted representations of him over his sleeping body. In co-op you fight three.
- Hoist by His Own Petard: While his dream opened the Abyss, it also created Katrien, who maintains the moral compass she had in life and works to stop him. The Ghost Monk and La Pincoya seem to manifest from the Abyss as well.
- My God, What Have I Done?: As his journal reveals, he attempted to erase Katrien's memory of him being a warlock. The spell went wrong and killed her, leading to him giving himself up to his nightmares and creating the Abyss.
- Reality Warper: Within the Abyss his dreams and nightmares manifest themself as he sleeps.
