History Characters / DustAnElysianTail

--> '''Dust:''' Ahrah? What does he mean?
--> '''Ahrah:''' I...soon, Dust. Very soon, all of this will be explained. Come, we can discuss this later. We must hurry if we are to find Ginger and learn the location of this Moonblood camp.
** When snow is blocking their way in the Blackmoor Mountains, Dust proposes causing a massive avalanche, which Fidget wholeheartedly agrees upon. This causes Ahrah to actually break his normal mystic wise tone.--> '''Dust:''' And don't worry about Gianni. I'll sort him out.
--> '''Ahrah: ''' "Really? Do I need to be the voice of caution here?! Need I explain how creating an avalanche puts us all in danger?"

--> '''Ahrah''': ''Yes'', Fidget. We figured that out on our own.

* NotSoStoic: When snow is blocking their way in the Blackmoor Mountains, Dust proposes causing a massive avalanche, which Fidget wholeheartedly agrees upon. This causes Ahrah to actually break his normal mystic wise tone.

* IncrediblyLamePun: She indulges in this when Dust promises to Corbin that he'll deal with Gianni. [[DontExplainTheJoke Dust reacts with appropriate amount of exasperation.]]
--> '''Dust:''' And don't worry about Gianni. I'll sort him out.
--> '''Fidget:''' Yeah, like the laundry!
--> '''Dust:''' ''*sighs*'' Yes, Fidget. Like the laundry.

* GutturalGrowler: His voice isn’t too deep, but it is very raspy.

* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: [[spoiler:Cassius used to be the Royal Assassin.]]

* FantasticalllyIndifferent: When Dust acquires the first sheep and puts it in his inventory, Fidget questions him on it. Dust, however, thinks nothing of him putting an entire animal in his inventory. He also doesn't think much of the tornado in Blackmoor Mountains that takes him to a secret area.

* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: He commands the local monsters to fight for him, and is strong enough to be the first BossBattle.

* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: General Gaius, who can match Dust blow-for-blow, openly says he was [[spoiler:Cassius' better in combat]], and has [[ImplacableMan such insane endurance]] that he needs to be [[spoiler:brutally pounded into the heart of a volcano before he finally dies]].

* OffstageVillainy: General Gaius has done atrocious things... apparently. In ''every single one'' of his actual on-screen appearances, he's being calm, professional, and endlessly forgiving. Making matters worse is that the majority of his evil is explained by the [[UnreliableExpositor people who are in direct conflict with him,]] and in at least two cases [[spoiler:have been [[TheSvengali withholding information from Dust]] for most of the game]]. It's a case of RealLifeWritesThePlot. General Gaius was originally supposed to be just one of the milestones, with story continuing after his defeat. These plans where scrapped to meet the production deadline.

* NotSoStoic: While he always speaks with a quiet and polite tone, if you speak to him after defeating Baron Kane he talks about him with a subtle but noticeable degree of bitterness and venom in his voice, due to Kane's role in General Gaius' campaign against Moonblood race and their sympathizers.

* Greed: His motivator in life, as he [[spoiler:turned in his Moonblood sympathizing friends and neighbors to General Gaius in exchange for money. It got so bad that even those who weren't Moonblood sympathizers were turned in as well to keep the flow of money coming in.]]

* StoolPigeon: In his life he was this, of the Betrayer Barry type. [[spoiler: He was selling out his neighbors and friends as Moonblood sympathizers to General Gaius in exchange for money, and if one of the servants' notes are any indication he was also doing this to those who had nothing to do with Moonbloods at all.]]

--> '''Ahrah: ''' "Really? I have to be the voice of caution here?!"

* HeroesPreferSwords: Relying on Ahrah's guidance and powers, of course a sword is Dust's WeaponOfChoice. [[spoiler:Although he didn't actually need Ahrah to be a master swordsman.]]

* ShesGotLegs: For being less anthropomorphic than other characters, Fidget has some surprisingly long and curvy legs, with the hips to match. They're emphasised especially by her pale underbelly.

* PuppyDogEyes: Fidget's big, vibrant green peepers and adorable face lend themselves perfectly to these.
* RidiculouslyCuteCritter: And ''how''. She's got huge expressive PuppyDogEyes and ears, a small and cuddly body with cute round paws, and vibrant fluffy fur. It's emphasised more by her being chipper, friendly and EndearinglyDorky with an [[LovableCoward amusingly-cowardly]] but [[CowardlyLion brave-deep-down]] disposition.

* BadassAdorable: Considering combining her magic with the Dust Storm will probably be your workhorse when it comes to racking up combos.
* BreakingTheFourthWall: She sometimes addresses the player directly about game mechanics and situations:
---> '''Um, I hope you saved'''
---> '''MASH THE BUTTONS! DO SOMETHING'''

* BuffySpeak: She'll use it on occasion.
--> '''Fidget:''' AH! It's another one of those spiky slime things!
* CowardlyLion: Fidget, whose projectiles can become your most powerful attack, is very easily scared. She admits to being afraid of monsters, darkness and, of all things, [[IronicFear heights]].
* CuteLittleFangs: She has these as both the bat/fox parts of her anatomy.

* FairyCompanion: To Dust. She's a small fox-like being with bat wings.

* IronicFear: It fits with her CowardlyLion status that Fidget, who has wings and is always seen flying next to Dust, is afraid of heights.

-->'''Did you just put that thing in your inventory?'''
** And when Dust returns 6 sheep:

* MediumAwareness: While the tutorial section at the beginning has the characters openly talking about gameplay mechanics as gameplay mechanics, Fidget continues to do that afterwards. Nobody else ever questions what she's talking about.

* PluckyComicRelief: Lampshaded, calling herself Dust's funny sidekick.

* RidiculouslyCuteCritter: Big, expressive eyes and ears? Small? Furry? Cute round paws? Checks all round!

* NiceHat: He only takes it off during a few cutscenes.
