The Galbadian soldier from Final Fantasy VIII. This version takes more from his Dissidia 012 incarnation.
 * Adorkable: Especially when Erica starts asking him abut the mortal world.
 * Alternative Character Interpretation: This version of Laguna acts like a freindly big brother to damn-near everyone in the group with a problem, including some of the more confrontational ones like Dromaeus. However, carrying all those burdens starts to grind him down...
 * Badass Normal: His only power is summoning and dispelling various guns.
 * Big Brother Mentor / Team Dad: His defining trait. Laguna does his best to keep everyone together. With a group like this, he has a lotta work to do.
 * Ship Tease: Kind of a side effect. Most of the guys in the group that have problems either dont let it get to them or dont like to talk about it, so most of Laguna's pep-talks are directed towards Erica, Four, and A Eanna.
 * The Chew Toy: Try to find a fight where he doesn't get hurt.
 * Character Tics: His leg cramp and lack of direction, though they aren't brought up often.
 * Composite Character: He remebers the events of FFVIII, but he has his abilities from Dissida and some memories of the 12 cycle.

 * Beware the Nice Ones: He doesn't get annoyed often, and even then it's only for a few seconds. But he will chew out anyone, even his friends.
 * Only Sane Man: When he first showed up, he was frequently shocked by the group's oddness. Even now there are times where he has to stop and stare.
 * The Power of Friendship / The Power of Trust: Strongly believes in this.

Jio Freed

 * Ascended Demon: Despite being a literal demon, he is very kind-hearted. Still, anything that sees into a person's soul or heart will see him as a demon.
 * Deal With the Devil: He made a deal with Satan, the entity inside him, that grants him power. This resulted in the 666 mark that appears on his left hand and grants him various powers, mostly based on Absorption
 * Demonic Possession: Within him is the soul of Satan, Demon 1i.
 * Elemental Absorption
 * Energy Absorption
 * Emotion Eater: His O-Part, Zero Type R, literally forms blades based on the hatred of the target.
 * This allows it to attack some targets while leaving others completely unharmed. In addition, the blades can not be blocked by physical forces.

 * Half Human Hybrid: Yes and no, really. He is a demon, but is very human in appearance and biology.
 * His hair is split down the middle as black and white, while his left eye is blue and the right is red.

 * Meta Powerup: By using Zero Type R in conjunction with his left hand, he is able to use the Devil Summoner ability.
 * Nice Guy: Jio is a nice person, though he can be very tough on people he doesn't trust and outright disrespects those he sees as evil. Even Gods.
 * Despite Varger continually attacking the group, Jio never behaved aggressively towards him or called him an enemy. Going so far as to not fight back during the Final Battle (maybe?) with him for a long time.
 * Even after fighting Varger, he insisted that they spare him.
 * He also promised to kill Varger personally if he did return as a threat. Proving that you should Beware the Nice Ones.
 * Regeneration: He posses this power but only when he uses his Devil Summoner skill.
 * Swiss Army Weapon: His Devil Summoner skill can mix and match properties, abilities, and even material as he needs it.
 * It can even create matter and has been used to create shields, trap enemies, and even create a powerful gun similar to one Laura used.
 * The Power of Friendship / The Power of Trust: Jio believes in these strongly. They helped him defeat Satan in his own world.
 * With Great Power Comes Great Insanity: Sort of subverted. He's far from insane, but he is divided between extremes. And Satan is an always present threat to his sanity.

 * He even tried to kill Jio.
 * Demon Slaying: Stated to have once killed a demon single handed.
 * Muggle Best Friend: While Jio is a demon, Jin has no such powers.

 * Playing With Fire: His O-Part, Ashura, has a flame effect.
 * The effect is a normal flame, but due to his skill and strong Spirit the flame is blue.
 * Unless his Spirit is tainted by hate and then it's black.

 * Psychic Powers: Several in fact.
 * He likes to use telekinesis to throw people around.
 * Also, ripped off Hazama's arm by staring at it.
 * Diverted beams aimed at him before to accomplish a Misguided Missle Effect. Perhaps using this power.

 * Even his tentacles can stretch great distances seemingly without limits.

 * He doesn't even care if they hate him. As long as they hate.

Dromaeus
""I am having a good morning, human, so I'll forgive you your stupidity for now, something that I rarely do. I am an Argonian of Black-Marsh, and as such, you will show respect. Refer to me as 'fish' again, and I will have your tongue, is that clear?""


 * Old Soldier Dromaeus was the greatest warrior in Skyrim for a long time, and saw everything it had to offer.
 * Dark and Troubled Past He hatched into slavery, and after killing his owner, lived as a fugitive for years.
 * Luckily My Shield Will Protect Me Dromaeus carried the Shield of Ysgramor, and it could take an unreasonable amount of punishment.
 * Warrior Heaven Dromaeus firmly believed that his valour would take him to Sovngarde, and did not fear death as a result. And he was right.

A Eanna

 * Naive Everygirl Tends to be warmhearted and easily shocked compared to her jaded, aggressive mentor.

 * Tragic Monster A Eanna is a vampire who drinks blood only to survive, and regrets that she even has to do that.
 * The Medic A Eanna is a skilled young mage, but her real talent lies in healing spells.

Lambda-11

 * Mind Rape: Cortusey of Regulus, suprise suprise, and later caused to a degree by her own memories.

 * Robot Girl: Well, cyborg, but other than that she fits the trope perfectly.
