* {{spoiler|[[The Pawn]]: For the Kingdom. They wanted him to reach an important position so that they could influence his actions and then crush his dreams at a strategic moment.}}

* {{spoiler|[[The Unchosen One]]}}

* [[Wide Eyed Idealist]]: This is almost physically painful near the beginning of the game. Remains idealistic until the end, but tempers it with a little common sense later on.

== Matilda ==

[[File:Matilda2_164.png|frame]]

Captain of a special unit in the Republic army - the very unit that Hilbert joins. Matilda is down-to-earth and hotheaded; she doesn't react well to Hilbert's [[Wide Eyed Idealist|idealistic nonsense]], but she values every member of her team highly. She's loyal to her country, but has some issues with the army's higher-ups...

Line 104:

* [[The Quiet One]]: Especially in the beginning of the game, it's a rarity for him to speak at all in cutscenes.

* {{spoiler|[[Spanner in ~~The~~ Works]]}}: {{spoiler|Castor had him locked up for a ''reason''. Between [[He Knows Too Much|his knowledge of what's actually going on]] and his connections to Zawu and Castor, his escape winds up causing a ''lot'' of problems in the long run.}}

[[Rewarded As a Traitor Deserves|This proved to be a bad idea]]}}.
