Banga Miners
Lisa
Voiced by: Michiko Kaiden
- Big Damn Heroes: How we're introduced to her, along with some other examples.
- Lisa comes in to save Syd and a depowered Kat from a gravity storm during the tutorial chapter.
- Pulls another one later when she shows up with the Banga fleet in Hekseville to help Kat and Raven stop Brahman.
- And one more to help Kat defeat the Darkness.
- Drowning My Sorrows: Tends to hit the rot-gut when things don't go too well.
- Good Is Not Nice: She's a Mean Boss who won't hesitate to withhold food from anyone who isn't pulling their weight in Banga, she'll frequently leave people to their doomed fates, and she's a cold and cynical person in general. This is all in large part because Lisa is always looking at bigger picture, first for the Banga Miners and eventually for the whole city, and has to make choices that are hard but pragmatic.
- Important Haircut: Gets one when she decides that enough is enough and that it's time to take back the city of Jirga Para Lhao.
- Jerk with a Heart of Gold: She is a Mean Boss at first, but inside she a friendly woman.
- Spanner in the Works: To Brahman's plans, as her relationship with Cecie proves pivotal in breaking Brahman's control over her.
- Team Mom: To the Banga Miners. She may be cold, but she clearly cares deeply about all of them.
- Troubled, but Cute: She is certainly bossy and bitter sometimes, but at least she looks quite attractive.
Cecie/Durga
Voiced by: Risa Shimuzi
Click here to see her as Durga Angel
Lisa's adopted daughter. She fell from a gravity storm years ago and was adopted by Lisa. A shy quiet girl, she spends most of her time looking after her doll, the only thing she had with her when she fell from the storm. She happens to be compatible with the powers of Durga Angel, allowing her to manifest through her.
- Badass Adorable: Once she turns into Durga. And especially when she masters the form, keeping the powers but retaining her sweet personality.
- Cute Clumsy Girl: Her forgetfulness and penchant for daydreaming often result in the livestock, which she's supposed to take care off getting away.
- The Cutie: She is a sweetheart and very innocent, heck, she's like a clone of Kat.
- Happily Adopted: Lisa's a stern parent towards her, but she's still thankful to the woman for taking her in.
- Light Is Not Good: Zigzagged. As Durga, Cecie's Ax-Crazy and Brainwashed and Crazy into working for Brahman to freeze time in Hekesville. Becomes a subversion once Cecie gains control over her Durga form.
- Mysterious Waif: She appeared in a gravity storm with no memory of her past, and has been in Lisa's custody ever since. It turns out she's Kali's sister, and is a suitable vessel for Durga Angel.
- Superpowered Evil Side: When she transforms into Durga Angel, she's violent, insane, and perfectly willing to freeze Hekseville in time with her sister.
- Took a Level in Badass: Combined with a Big Damn Heroes moment, she learns to control her Durga Angel form and uses it to help save Kat in the final chapter.
- "Well Done, Son" Guy: Cecie tries hard to impress her adoptive mother, who's just as aloof to her as she is to everyone else. For her part, Lisa does love Cecie, but her hardened personality makes it hard for her to ever show warmth.
Misai
- Cannot Spit It Out: He's clearly attracted to Kat, but has a hard time just telling her.
- Jerk with a Heart of Gold
- The Rival: Sees Kat as this, at least when it comes to mining crystals.
- Tsundere: Towards Kat.
Sun Shipping
Vogo
- Changed My Mind, Kid: As the situation in Jirga Para Lhao deteriorates, he decides it's best to just cut his losses and run. It doesn't take long for guilt to urge him to go back and lend some much-needed assistance to the heroes.
- Corrupt Corporate Executive: He enacts some pretty harsh conditions on the Banga miners to cheat them out of payment for their ore, and attempts to rig a wager with them to claim complete ownership of their fleet.
- Distracted by the Sexy: During a conversation with Kat and Raven, Vogo's eyes are focused on before the following panel-shot is conveniently aimed at both girls' bodies and nothing else.
- Heel–Face Turn: Starts out antagonistic to the Banga, and later on to the rebels, but eventually helps them out.
- Heroic Sacrifice: Averted, when he rams his ship into the Bismalia to help the Kat and her friends, they think that he's bought the farm. Turns out, he survived and was hanging off the edge of the Bismalia.
- Starter Villain: He serves as the main antagonist for the first chapter of the game. After that, he becomes more of a Wild Card.
- Sworn Brothers: He branded himself and Fi to mark that despite the latter being adopted he is as much of a Sun as him.
- Walking Shirtless Scene: He doesn't wear a shirt underneath that coat of his.
Fi
- Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other: A familial example. As much he may act apathetic to Vogo, it's clear he cares deeply for his adoptive brother as seen by his reaction when Vogo nearly dies ramming the Bismalia.
- Badass Normal: Doesn't have any gravity shifting powers, only fighting skill he's learned as part of his heritage, but is able to keep up with Kat and Raven when it counts.
- Somewhat Downplayed in that while he is very capable, the game makes it clear the only way he even stands a chance against Kat is if she doesn't use her powers. And even with that handicap, Kat still beats Fi handily both times they fight.
- The Brute or The Big Guy: Fills this role for Vogo. His bio states that he regularly intimidates those who resist Vogo's demands, and he doesn't hesitate to attack Kat on Vogo's order during their first encounter.
- Code of Honour: Subscribes to that of the Lhao Tribe warriors, something which sometimes annoys Vogo as it prevents him form pulling of some of his more unscrupulous plans.
- Morality Pet: Likely the only person who Vogo loves and the one most capable of steering him closer to altruism.
- Noble Top Enforcer: To Vogo, the miners actually likes him and think he would make a better boss than his brother.
- Sarcastic Devotee: Has a few of these moments to Vogo.

- One W Inged Angel: Transforms in a massive monstrosity after her sister starts turning into Cecie again.

Main Game Spoilers
Eto
Cai
- A Child Shall Lead Them: The latest ruler of the city, despite his age.
- Adorably Precocious Child: He's very young, but accepts his responsibilities as King of Eto with full gusto. Subverted in that he has a very childish sense of entitlement in thinking he fully deserves to make whatever world he wants over the corpses of everyone below his city.
- Enfant Terrible: He sees absolutely nothing wrong with killing countless people just so he can remake the world in his image.
- Knight of Cerebus: The story takes a very dark turn once he enters the picture.
- Oh, Crap!: When he's about to be consumed by the Final Boss.
- Sequel Hook: During the epilogue, Chaz reveals that Cai was taken into custody after the final fight. However, he disappeared immediately after.
- Utopia Justifies the Means: Decides to wipe out the people below Eto as part of his plan to make a better world.
- Villainous Breakdown: He throws a temper tantrum after Kat defeats Elektricitie, going into a Motive Rant explaining why the weak should die. Kat has enough of this and slaps his across the ground.
- Walking Spoiler: It's difficult to discuss him without spoiling the game's final chapter.
- White Hair, Black Heart: How else would you describe someone with such snowy hair and genocidal intentions?
Xicero
- The Atoner: Regarding his actions 100 years ago.
- My Greatest Failure: He perceived Alua's actions regarding the people below Eto as dangerous and tried assassinating her. Not only did this result in Syd's death but Alua's absence also allowed Cai to come to power.
- Redemption Equals Death: He reconciles with Syd and tries working with him against Cai. When that fails, in his dying breath, he begs Kat stop him.
- Small Role, Big Impact: He doesn't have much screen time before he's killed by Cai but he's the main cause of Queen Alua AKA Kat going missing for a hundred years which had a major impact on the series.
- We Hardly Knew Ye: He doesn't have much screen time before he's killed by Cai. About all we learn about him is that he tried to assassinate Alua and eventually came to regret it. How he transitioned from one point of view to the other is a mystery.
- We Used to Be Friends: With Syd.
Shining Girl/Elektricitie
- Battle Theme Music: Fundamental Forces, which references the battle between the powers of Electricity and Gravity.

The Destructive Force
The Darkness
Spoilers
The entity that is from the bottom of the world.
- Allegorical Character: Of Ecological Disaster. It manifests as a black hole that is slowly destroying the world, ruining the lives of those who are at the bottom of humanity's social hierarchy (which is made literal in these games), with people higher on the (literal) totem pole apathetic to the danger. People at the very top — like Cai and the rest of Eto's aristocracy — even go so far as dismissing those less fortunate than them as already lost, ready to make the world better with the riff-raff gone, arrogant in assuming that their descendants will know what to do and they'll sit back and wait it out until then.
- Big Bad: The ultimate evil behind the series.
- Eldritch Abomination: The Darkness, essentially a nigh-unstoppable avatar of destruction and negativity. It possesses Cai and his guardian and then transforms into what can only be called a demon, through and through: a gigantic winged beast with a head that seems a fusion between a dragon and a stag, with multiple regenerating eyes everywhere, and the ability to steal all of Kat's powers bit by bit while No-Sell practically everything our heroes can throw at it. And this thing's endgame was the obliteration of everything!
- The Corrupter: It corrupted Cai, convincing him to destroy the world and it would have done the same to Kat had the people of Hekseville not stepped in.
- Giant Space Flea from Nowhere: While the black hole swallowing the World Pillar has been an omnipresent threat for the whole series, it is not until The Darkness appears do we find out that it can think, has an agenda and has been conspiring in Eto.
- The Man Behind the Man: It was the one who gave King Cai the idea to destroy the world and remake it into a better world, as he sees it.
- Power of the Void: It's the Anthropomorphic Personification of the Black Hole that is slowly destroying the World Pillar. Its attacks include a Breath Weapon, summoning Spheres of Destruction and destroying each of Kat's powers until she is rendered powerless.
- Satanic Archetype: It's a massive monstrous beast with an overtly demonic appearance, with giant leathery wings, massive antlers and is seen only from the waist down similar to how Satan appeared in The Divine Comedy. It desires nothing more than the total destruction of the world and everyone in it, claiming that it's one desire is to replace it with a new reality in its own image. It has a tendency to corrupt others into furthering its own agenda, unable to do so with Kat because of her Incorruptible Pure Pureness.
- Walking Spoiler: It's difficult to discuss it without spoiling the game's final chapter.
