Here we go! I decided to do a write-up for this game's cast of characters so that they can be out there in the open. If you'd rather discover them as you play and don't wish to read this post, that's cool too!
Note: Eight of the nine main characters are revealed below! The ninth is someone I want to keep a lid on for now. There is also a high chance that there will be a tenth optional/secret character implemented later on down the road.
And with that out of the way...
Vahn Vainstrong is, once again, our main character and protagonist. Hailing from the town of Valla in the kingdom of Branch, Vahn is a recently anointed knight who has been accepted into the Branch Military. Vahn is typically kind, reasonable, and always wants to help those in need or lend a hand if possible. He takes a laid back mentor attitude with his best friend and squire, Hans Meddleford. Vahn's weapon of choice is the sword.
Also hailing from the town of Valla is Hans Middlefeld, son to the local elder and squire of Vahn Vainstrong. Hans aspires to be a knight himself, albeit one who is quick and speedy on his feet. Hans is several years younger than Vahn, making him more excitable and hyperactive than his mentor. Like Vahn, Hans enjoys helping those in need and possesses a positive attitude, but is quick to get defensive if his buttons are pushed. To go along with his desire to be a speedy fighter, Hans prefers to use lightweight knives and daggers in combat.
Vera Farabrandt is a senior paladin from the southeastern kingdom of Artalia which is perhaps Branch's closest ally and strongest trading partner. As a paladin, Vera is a strong fighter capable of using healing magic to aid allies in the heat of battle. Because of her status as a paladin, she is also frequently used as an ambassador and diplomat by her superiors and is sent to other kingdoms to help ratify agreements and treaties. Vera is an intelligent kindhearted woman with a love for Gaia's history. Her preferred weapon is the spear.
Residing in Branch's quaint village of Trei is the experienced wizard known as Oalston Saradin. He is well versed in the arcane and is a highly proficient magic user. Oalston is incredibly astute and knowledgeable of the world, and possesses a calm demeanor. Though his best days are behind him, Oalston still craves adventure and is attracted to any quest that is heavily tied to magic and the elements. As a wizard, Oalston wields a rod.
Kassandra Omaedias is a Lenadian huntress and wilderness explorer who hails from the town of Palumpu. Despite being a huntress who has a deep connection to nature and the world around her, Kassandra is mildly eccentric and has a habit of speaking out about things that have nothing to do with the issue at hand. Despite her odd behavior, her knowledge of the wilds is second to known. Kassandra's weapon of choice is the bow.
The calm, quiet, and stoic ninja known as Nobumasa hails from the Village of Zen, a small ninja village on an island off the coast of Rodenia that operates independently from the four kingdoms. Nobumasa left his village for unknown reasons, but ventures the world looking for progressively stronger creatures to pit himself against. When faced with a dilemma, Nobumasa can be counted on to be the voice of reason. As a ninja, he wields ninja swords.
A quiet and near-mute plague doctor hailing from the southern reaches of Lenadia, Lumen Widowcraft is a mysterious woman. Other than the fact that she is a roaming plague doctor, little is known about her and few, if any, know what she looks like underneath her mask. Lumen is however known to be a highly skilled and talented physician who is not only capable of healing any wound, but also reverse engineering them to do harm to her foes. Lumen prefers to go into battle with blunt weapons.
A no-nonsense bandit and mercenary in the employ of Artalian rebels. Laka Ardell fights for herself and nobody else, and is known to be greedy and selfish. What her stake is in the Artalian rebels fighting against their king is unknown, and Laka doesn't seem interested in discussing it... or much of anything given her serious attitude and approach to life. Laka's weapon of choice is the axe.
And that's it! Granted there is one further main character, but I already mentioned that I'm choosing to avoid talking about them. I'm sure most of you would know why I may be keeping one character's name and identity semi-secret, especially since this is a remake of an existing game. If you can't figure it out, well, that's good for me!
Again, there may also be a tenth character who is secret/optional. I will straight up say that they will be a returning character from either Blackmoon Prophecy or Blackmoon Prophecy II, I haven't decided yet and I need to get a feel for how this game is going to pan out before I think about adding them.
Anyway, hope that was an interesting read!
