Chaos Rings II/Characters

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Characters from the IOS Eastern RPG Chaos Rings II.

Nominator:

Darwin

A young man who is the current Nominator. He is the childhood friend of both Orlando and Marie, and was a junior member of the Ornian Guard, a group of mercenaries. He was originally intended to be the first Pillar, but he ends up killing Orlando while under something else's control and becoming the Nominator, instead.

The Pillars:

Orlando

The childhood friend of Darwin, and Marie's older brother. He was a lieutenant in the Ornian Guard. He was originally chosen as the Nominator, but an "oversight" led to him being killed as a Pillar, instead, leaving Darwin as the Nominator.

Marie

Orlando's half sister and Darwin's close friend. She is distraught after seeing Darwin kill her brother.

Li Hua

A young woman whose past has ties with Orlando's. She seems friendly with Conor.

Araki

A gruff man who was bent on killing Orlando.

Conor

A boy from a noble family who both Orlando and Darwin served as bodyguards for.

  • The Archer: With a crossbow.
  • Last Request: He asks Darwin to tell his parents how much he loves them and how happy he was to be their son.
  • Stepford Smiler: After the first pillar is sacrificed, he puts up an unconvincing act that everything is fine.
  • White Magician Boy: His Awakenings are healing or buffing in nature, he uses a bow, and he's a coward.

The Four Horseman

Four antagonists that serve the Destroyer. They are collecting and destroying the Sopia cores.

Others

Lessica

An enigmatic young woman who is charged with helping the Nominator.

  • Artificial Human: She was created by the Creator for this role.
  • Big Eater: Some sidequests involve getting her 10 of a specific healing item, which are always food. She eats them immediately.
  • Dangerously-Short Skirt
  • Detached Sleeves
  • Elegant Gothic Lolita: There are definitely elements of this in her design.
  • Emotionless Girl
  • Heroic Sacrifice: She sacrifices herself to become an Ophan, so that the party has a chance of defeating Amon. Although she comes back after Amon is defeated, she still dies, because all of Amon's creations die when he does. She knew this was her fate from the moment she decided to rebel, and accepted it.
  • Humanity Is Infectious: Her interactions with all of the Nominators and Pillars over the years have made her more human, seeing value in life and a desire for freedom. It is this that leads her to rebel against the Creator, even though she knows it will mean her death.

Bachs: If you lie down with dogs, you'll come up with fleas.

Bachs

The man who runs the Rite. He's actually Amon, called the Creator.

  • Big Bad
  • Cain and Abel: With Neron. They were locked in combat for who knows how many aeons. When Amon finally defeated him, he realized he would cease to exist without Neron's belief. So he locked his counterpart up for all eternity and substituted humanity's belief for his brother's, using his brother as a scapegoat for his own evil acts to obtain it.
  • Dramatic Wind: Constantly.
  • Faux Affably Evil: Every "nice" act, like allowing Li Hua a private word with Darwin or showing Conor his parents, is all a calculated ploy to give the story told by the Nominator more emotional impact later, and thus gain more faith.
  • Gods Need Prayer Badly: To the point that he will cease to exist if people stop believing in him.
  • God Is Evil: Every time people stop believing in him enough, he causes a planet-wide apocalypse and forces a Nominator to kill five people, many of whom are family and friends, all to make the rest of humanity worship him again.
  • Good Wings, Evil Wings: Good wings in all his forms other than Bachs.
  • Light Is Not Good: About as far from good as it's possible to get, actually.
  • Load-Bearing Boss
  • Manipulative Bastard: So very much. He's deliberately chooses people who will create more drama as the Nominator and Pillars, in order to make a better story. Then he shamelessly manipulates them into sacrificing themselves for what they believe is a good cause.
  • One-Winged Angel: First a Hopeless Boss Fight against "Bachs", then a fight against an Amon-possessed Ophan, then that Ophan warped and holding Lessica captive, and finally against the angelic-looking Amon himself.
  • True Final Boss
  • Zero Effort Boss: His final form. Just sit back, and wait for your third level Awakening.

Herald

A angelic looking creature that serves Bachs.

Piu-Piu

A small, eccentric, and extremely perverted cat-like creature who runs the store.

The Destroyer

A being bent on destroying the world. Sealed away in the planet's core, and must be periodically resealed with the Rite of Sealing. Except that's all a lie.
