Party Members

The occupation title is listed in parentheses after the character's name. [For Monster Companions, the occupation title is the species.]

• The Hero (Fisherman's son) (主人公（アルス） 〔漁師の息子〕): A boy living in the fishing village of Pilchard Bay, on the island of Estard. Son of Pollock the fisherman and Pearl. Unlike most people, he is able to read the writing on the crest of the Water Spirit which is tattooed on his arm. In the official illustrations, he has a small lizard sitting on his hand. Akira Toriyama has stated that the lizard is a symbol of his kindness; in the game this scene appears only briefly during the opening movie. The hero's stats grow in a balanced fashion, but he has high Strength and Attack, and learns several healing spells. In the manga and screenshots, the hero's default name is Arus (アルス). In promotional material for the 3DS localization, he is given the name Auster.
• Maribel (Daughter of the Mayor) (マリベル 〔網元の娘〕): A childhood friend of the hero, she is the daughter of Mayde, the Mayor of Pilchard Bay. She is curious and self-absorbed, so she sneaks into her father's boat. She also insists on accompanying the hero and Kiefer to the ruins. While she has a fiery personality, she eventually is disturbed by the terrible things that happen in the party's presence. She leaves the party when her father grows ill, although she rejoins after the island is sealed in Disc 2. Her Agility and MP are high, but her HP and Attack are low. She can use whips and wands rather than bladed weapons, but learns several offensive spells early in the game.
• Kiefer (Prince of Estard) (キーファ・グラン 〔城の王子〕): He is the hero's best friend. He is adventurous and suggests to the hero that they should explore the ruins (without telling his father King Donald). He is curious about the mysterious stone carvings they find there. After journeying through many different islands, he eventually falls in love with the Roamer dancer Lala, and decides to leave the party to live with her in the past. He can equip many types of weapons and armor, and has high HP and Attack, but he has no MP and cannot cast spells.
• Ruff (Wolf boy) (ガボ 〔オオカミ少年〕): A white wolf transformed into a human by the magic of Hackrobat. He joins the party after the Hackrobat is defeated. He hopes that Hackrobat can restore his wolf form in the present world, but the spell fails, and he gains only the ability to speak human language. He has a strong sense of compassion and justice, and makes many optimistic comments. He is presented as a male version of San from Princess Mononoke. He has low MP, but his other stats are high. He has a unique technique to summon other wolves to aid him in battle. He cannot effectively use most forms of weaponry, since they are too large for him (he is still the size of a wolf cub), but he still has access to claws and boomerangs. Most bladed weapons will actually reduce his Attack.
• Sir Mervyn (Legendary Hero) (メルビン 〔伝説の英雄〕): He is an ancient Legendary Hero, in the service of the Almighty. During the battle between God and the Demon King, he was turned to stone by God, as a precaution. Several hundred years later, the stone was named the Sizzling Stone by Pike. He joins the party after being revived by the Hero, in order to enact vengeance against the Demon King. After the defeat of Orgodemir in the past, and the apparent revival of the Almighty, he works at the Crystal Palace, but is banished by "God", and flees to the Beacon, where he seeks the hero's help to unseal Estard and the Spirits. He is presented as being old-fashioned, although he is open with the hero, and is presented as liking young women. His abilities are well-balanced between HP, MP, and Attack; but his Agility is the lowest of the party members.
• Aishe (Roamer dancer) (アイラ 〔ユバールの踊り手〕) : She is a dancer and warrior of the Roamers, a tribe of nomads. (They were called Yubara in the original Japanese.) She joins the party to search for a musician worthy of playing the legendary Torban of Truth. It is implied that she is a descendant from Lala and Kiefer. She has a fiery personality much like her ancestor and has a strong desire to adventure. She decides to join the Guard of the royal family of Estard, seeing them as the family she always wanted. Her abilities are balanced similarly to the protagonist's; she has high Attack and Defence and she is capable of equipping many heavy weapons and armor. When she joins the party, she has mastered the Dancer, and reached rank three as a Warrior. (However, she seems to have forgotten her transfer skills from the Dancer class.)

Inhabitants of Estard

• Pollock (ボルカノ): Father of the hero. He is a fisherman of some repute in Estard. He disappears in Disc 2, when Estard is sealed; but he is rescued by Sharkeye.
• Pearl (マーレ): The hero's mother. She looks after the house when her husband is out on fishing expeditions.
• Pike (ホンダラ): The hero's uncle, who lives in the castle town of Estard. He sells goods of questionable provenance, but they are important to the plot. Known as a notorious drunkard and flirt, who is constantly in debt and sullies the good name of his brother.
• King Donald (バーンズ・グラン): King of Estard, and father to Prince Kiefer and Princess Lisette. He is headstrong and stern, particularly when his son, the prince, tests his patience.
• Princess Lisette (リーサ・グラン): Kiefer's sister, the princess of Estard. Her mother died in infancy, so her rascally brother Kiefer cared for her.
• Mayde (アミット): Father of Maribel. He is the mayor (head fisherman in the original Japanese) of Fishbel, and lives in a large mansion. When he contracts an illness, Maribel leaves the party to help him.
• The Woodcutter (きこり): A woodcutter who lives in the mountains west of Estard. He has the ability to talk with animals, which comes in handy at the island of L'Arca. He helps the hero in the battle against Hackrobat.

Major Characters

• The Almighty: At one time, he fought the Demon King, Orgodemir, but according to legend he was defeated in the struggle. In fact, he is in the hidden dungeon, reached by a Mysterious Tablet; if he is defeated in at most 20 turns, he will give the party a reward. Also, he will move to the Immigrant Town. During the battle, he says that he built the temple to ensure the future survival of humans.
• The Spirits: The four spirits which serve God. The FlameSpirit lives deep in the volcano of Burnmont, the TerraSpirit sleeps in the desert, the WindSpirit is in the shrine of Aeolus Vale, and the AquaSpirit is in the Rainbow Bay. These places are sealed by the Demon King in Disc 2, and the spirits help to unseal them, and reveal Orgodemir's true form. Their power can be summoned with the Amulet. All four spirits appear at once in the second hidden dungeon.
• Sharkeye (シャークアイ): Eldest of the pirates of the Dragon Sea. Like the hero, he has part of the crest of the Water Spirit incised on his arm. At one time, he was the commander of the navy of the Kingdom of Coastal. Later, after a great battle with the Devil's navy, all the pirate ships were sealed in a cave south of the desert. But when the desert is unsealed in the present, he revives and escapes. When he meets the hero, the seal on his arm moves to the hero's arm, completing the image there.
• Anaïs (アニエス): Wife of Sharkeye. It is rumored that she is the princess of some far-off country, whose name is unknown. She was with her husband on his pirate ship, but left for Buccanham Castle at the request of its king. When the heroes visit Buccanham, she is ill, and is sleeping in her bedroom. She is pregnant, and the King of the Sea states that her child will be important in the future. Therefore, the King grants her the Power of the Mermaid, allowing her to live until her child is needed.
• The King of the Sea (海底王): The King who lives on the ocean floor. He has mystical powers. In the past, he has the form of an old man, while in the present he wears a shell hat from Estard, and lives on the seabed to the south of that island.

Enemies

• Orgodemir (オルゴ・デミーラ): The Devil King who has broken the world into pieces and sealed them in darkness. In the past, he lives in a magical floating temple. In his first form, he appears to be a handsome human with a pair of wings on his back. His second form seems like a cross between a dragon and a caterpillar. In the present world, he has taken on the form of God, and sealed several continents again. But the four spirits reveal his true form. He is in the dungeons underneath the Dark Palace (which was disguised as the Crystal Palace), and has four forms. The first two forms are recolored versions of his forms from the past. The third form is a decomposed mixture of his first two forms. But his fourth form is a liquid-like version of his first form, in contrast to the usual custom of the series, in which the final form of the final boss is a gigantic demon. In the fourth form, he uses powerful spells such as Magic Burst. His name changes slightly with each form.
• Hackrobat (デス・アミーゴ) [Death Amigo]: He was sealed in a coffin in the demon cave by a former white wolf, but upon its casket being opened, it revives and bewitches the animals and humans of Orph (including Gabo) to exchange forms.
