*''' | *'''{{Hero 4}}'''. The main character of the game, who does not appear until {{DQ4 Chapter 5}}. (In the remakes, he/she also appears in an introductory prologue.) The player can choose and name either a male or a female hero. There is no impact to the story, other than a few optional pieces of armor and weapons that can be equipped if female. He or she is 17 at the start of {{DQ4 Chapter 5}}, and is quickly revealed to be the child of a woodcutter living north of [[Casabranca]] and a woman from [[Zenithia]] who returned to the sky after giving birth. The hero's hometown, in the mountains near the woodcutter's cabin, is destroyed by [[Psaro]], so he/she sets out alone to defeat the Lord of the Underworld. He/she is the only character who can use lightning spells, and also gains various other attack and recovery spells. His/her status is high overall, especially [[HP]] and [[Attack Power]]. In the manual and guidebook screenshots, the hero is named "Solo" (ソロ) or "Sofia" (ソフィア). | ||

However, they will often at some point travel to the [[Pioneer Town]] in the remake. | These characters join the party for portions of your quest, but cannot be controlled by the player or by a "Tactic" (though their Healing Spells can be used out of battle in the remakes).
