A boy who moved to Urguard during the Eye Hunt. Awakened as Magi during the destruction of Order of Lest. Holder of twin Lapistier and a strong willed boy. Still, he some ego hidden in his heart. He's not actually human, but the Star Eye sought by Felicia.
  • Accidental Pervert: He gropes Ashley's breast by mistake the first time they meet each other, and when he's in the infirmary after Ashley hit him for that he's caught by Ashley's followers by mistake in a compromising position. Let's not forget that a lot of his bath events with the female casts are this in nature. He really can't catch a break.
  • An Ice Person: His only magic attack, but it belongs to neutral/void element with ice-like animation...
  • BFS: As Berserker, at leat it looks big enough. Later as Ragnarok, his Flash Drive enables him to momentarily increase his sword's size, fulfilling this trope

  • Mystical White Hair: His hair turns white when he transforms into Ragnarok.
  • Non-Elemental: He's the only playable character who has "Void" element, an equivalent of non-elemental intially. When he hass Access to his true class Ragnarok, his element becomes Silver.
  • Official Couple: Eruru, but can be averted for "all" other females and some of the males.
  • Power at a Price: He chooses to accept the blessing of Aura Lux so that he can heal Magus from Tennes Lux's corruption and purify Eruru's soul so that she can be revived, but every time he uses this power he will gradually lose his senses.

  • Dash Attack: One of his Flash Drive moves involves him dashing through his enemies, leaving a trail of fire behind him.
  • Helmets Are Hardly Heroic: Despite his battle sprite wearing helmets, he doesn't wear one in conversation to show his emotion. Later when he's Brainwashed and Crazy, his status image depicts him wearing helmet he uses in battle to show he is on evil side.

A recently promoted into 6 star Magi and head of Urgard's disciplinary committee. She uphold the rules very well and won't hesitate to deliver punishment to those who disobey them.

Heine

Magi Awakening: Aegis
Element: Earth
Voiced by: Hiroyuki Yoshino (JP)
A five-star Magi in Urgard and Magus' resident pervert, he was tasked to scout Sandalwood Forest after a suspicious Felicia activity was spotted there. He rejoins the group after he reports the result of his investigation.
  • Mighty Glacier: The strongest damage taker, but has lowest AO and SPD, making his turns come last and less likely to evade damage.
  • Official Couple: With Inaluna somewhat. Unless you played Inaluna's Ending.
  • Shield Bash: With shield being his weapon of choice, this trope naturally comes into play. He also has a move that pushes three units in front of him.
  • Taking the Bullet: Played with. He took an attack from Valerie aimed at Inaluna, but he didn't die. Of course, Inaluna who cried thinking that he died whipped him instead.

Inaluna(dia)

Magi Awakening: Ishtar
Element: Light
Voiced by: Miyuki Sawashiro (JP)

  • Whip of Dominance: She is a spoiled and bossy princess who enjoys ordering people around and demeaning them. Fittingly, she has a whip for a weapon. Heine in particular is often bossed around by her, and is often whipped when he displeases her.

    The second Four 

Sara

Magi Awakening: Pandora
Element: Earth

A girl who had longs to become a witch. She described herself as "beyond genius" among the Magi. A not very talkative girl. She has been looking for magic to return her and her sister back to their own time.
  • Child Prodigy: Naturally, since she awakened her magi at the age of 6.
  • Cute Witch: And idolized the previous one too.
  • Deadpan Snarker: one of the most probable thing she says when she opens her mouth other than being a troll.
    Sara: If he's (Yuu) a prodigy, what am I? a God?
  • Expy: Her character and mannerism seems to take quite a bit after another certain little sister...
  • Green Thumb: Her element is nature.
  • Healing Hands: She has Curer spell and Regen Mass spell. She fills this role whenever Eruru is not available to use her healing power.
  • The Smart Girl: She's able to memorize the entire Urgard library catalogue.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sionchan_7467.png

  • Always Accurate Attack: She has higher accuracy than most (if not all other) units, enabling her to hit anything without fail. However, since she's built to be a mage and her attack power is one of the lowest, this becomes mundane.
  • Arcane Archer: She's a mage who happens to use bow in combat.
  • Big Sister Instinct: Has a minor shade of this. Protecting Sara is the catalyst in awakening her dormant Magi.
  • Blow You Away: Her element is wind.
  • Death from Above: Her Second Flash Drive involves Rain of Arrows.
  • Dump Stat: While accuracy is an important stat for attack power, Sion is a magic-oriented character so her weapon attack is considered useless especially in hard mode, making her higher-than-average accuracy wasteful. This is made more ironic and odd in her unique build where her accuracy gain goes through the roof while her attack gain lessens.
  • Healing Hands: She has 2 healing spells: One to restore debuffs and one to restore HP as well as status effect.
  • Leitmotif: "Roadside Flower"
  • Sibling Yin-Yang: A lot of her traits both in and outside of battle are opposites of her sister Sara; She is gentle and more approachable to Sara's blunt, dismissive, and manipulative nature, her hair is long and bright compared to Sara's short and dark one, she is much taller and bustier than Sara, her magi awakens late while Sara's awaken at a very young age, she has wind to Sara's Earth element in battle, and her turn speed is very high compared to Sara's.

Yu

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/LA3Yuu_8282.jpg
Magi Awakening: Grimoire
Element: Dark
Voiced by: Eri Kitamura (JP)
The Magical Detective and the youngest Magi. He believes that all mystery can be solved. Specialized in magic and analyzing data. He usually acts like an adult.
  • Black Magic: In contrary to other playable mages who can perform at least one party utility or healing spell, he learns none barring a spell that can drain his opponents' life and a debuff spell. It doesn't really matter though since his MAG stat is high enough to kill a lot of enemies if they have no dark element themselves or high enough magical resistance.
  • Child Mage: He's a 12-year-old Magi.
  • Child Prodigy: He awakened his Magi at twelve. A little later than Sara, but is still considered one.
  • Dark Is Not Evil: He uses dark element, but he's definitely on the good guy's side.
  • Improbable Weapon User: He uses stone tablet as a weapon which surprisingly has the same weapon range as Shion's bow.

Magi Awakening: Fenrir
Element: Wind
Voiced by: Yūichi Nakamura (JP)

  • Always Accurate Attack: His Mind Projection skill will hit anything regardless of targets' SPD.
  • Ambiguously Brown: He has the darkest skin color of everyone in the party, and that's it.
  • Artificial Human: Due to losing his lapis as the result of Felicia's Eye Hunt, he receives a synthetic lapistier implant on his body.
  • Doppelgänger Attack: His first Flash Drive involves splitting himself into 3 while throwing his knife.
  • Fragile Speedster: His AO enables him to be one of first attackers among the party accompanied with the highest SPD of all, but his defense and magic defense is a bit of lackluster.
  • Revenge: When it's revealed that Nefiria lapistier was created from his dead lover's.

Valerie - Warning: Walking Spoiler

Click to view spoiler 
Voiced by: Mai Nakahara (JP)
"I'm a Telos, leader of the Nefiria Army !!"
  • Glass Cannon: She hits very, very hard and moves fast but can't take physical damage too much coupled with her lack of HP. She's still lucky she has high enough magic resistance.
  • Walking Spoiler: The amount of spoilered trope in her entry should tell you that she's more than she seems.

Gil


  • Information Broker: Sort of. If Levi's relationship with other party member is high enough, he can sell "Private information" regarding them. The higher the relationship, the more you can unlock. They're not that important to the storyline.
