Characters from ''Lunar: Eternal Blue''/''Lunar 2: Eternal Blue Complete'' - the second installment in Game Arts' [[RPG]] series
==Characters==
=== Hiro ===
[[File:lunarebhirolowqual_7389.jpg|frame]]
{{quote|
* [[Accidental Pervert]]: He doesn't ever encounter Lucia naked on purpose, but it ''just keeps happening''.
* [[Adventurer Archaeologist]]: His introduction occurs as he explores an ancient ruin full of traps.
* [[Blow You Away]]: Specializes in wind magic.
* [[The Dulcinea Effect]]: So much so that the [[The Grand List of Console Role Playing Game Cliches]] calls this trope "The Hiro Rule".
* [[Facial Markings]]: Tattoo-like bars that are apparently just for visual appeal, since none of the characters ever mention them.
* [[Furo Scene]]: He gets one. Of course, [[Fan Service]] being [[Fan Service]], Lucia walks in on him.
* [[The Hero]]: Obviously.
* [[Heroes Prefer Swords]]
* [[Hikaru Midorikawa]]: [[Hilarious in Hindsight|Which is absolutely hilarious]] considering the guy eventually voiced another person by the name [[Gundam Wing|"Hiiro"]].
* [[Image Song]]: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fN0SDG6oiUU "Adventure Road - A New Journey"].
* [[Jumped At the Call]]
* [[Precision-Guided Boomerang]]
Line 20:
=== Lucia ===
[[File:lunareblucialowqual_3398.jpg|frame]]
{{quote|
* [[Adaptation Dye Job]]: [[Blue Eyes]] in the Sega CD version, [[Green Eyes]] in the remake.
* [[All-Encompassing Mantle]]: Her first outfit includes a red cloak that sometimes appears seamless.
* {{spoiler|[[But Now I Must Go]]: [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming|But no one ever said anything about people not being able to follow
* [[Chisa Yokoyama]]
* [[Crutch Character]]: As per the trope, initially a crutch.
** Shortly after she first appears, Zophar takes away most of her power. Afterwards, she's a lot less useful because she's basically a magic using party member whose actions you can't control. The only upside is that she can be ko-ed and still level up because her current level is always based on Hiro's, though she still takes experience from everyone else when she's up.
* [[Element Number Six]]: She specializes in (fantastically destructive, when she's at her peak) non-elemental magic.
* [[Emotionless Girl]]
* [[Exposed to the Elements]]: In the game's introduction, this is used purposely to establish her character, by showing that she's not bothered (well, much) by standing naked in a blizzard.
* [[Friendless Background]]: One of the main reasons Hiro becomes completely dedicated to helping her, [[The Dulcinea Effect|despite having just met her]], is because she doesn't know ''anyone'' on Lunar. He doesn't think it's right for someone to have to shoulder all their problems alone.
Line 39 ⟶ 38:
* [[Makeover Montage]]: The party realizes that if you're on the run from the law, it might not be such a great idea to wear ''a bright red robe''. They put her through one of these before deciding on her new clothes.
* [[Mysterious Waif]]
* [[No Social Skills]]: She tends to speak in a blunt manner and is ignorant of social niceties, especially early on.
* [[One-Hit-Point Wonder]]: She is this for a while after she gets depowered by Zophar.
* [[Physical God]]: Of... some flavor. [[Epileptic Trees|Exactly what she is remains up for debate
* [[What Is This Thing You Call Love?]]: The essence of her [[Character Development]].
* [[You Gotta Have Blue Hair]]
Line 47 ⟶ 46:
=== Ruby ===
[[File:lunarebrubylowqual_1153.jpg|frame]]
{{quote|
* [[Berserk Button]]: Calling her a cat.
* [[Blush Sticker]]: Present when her cuteness needs some extra emphasis.
* [[Breath Weapon]]: [[Playing with Fire|She breathes fire
* [[Clingy Jealous Girl]]: Towards Hiro, not made any better by the fact he clearly prefers Lucia.
* [[Cute Little Fangs]]: No cat is complete without them.
* [[I Am Not Weasel]]: Her most definitely cat-like appearance leads to a lot of this trope.
* [[Image Song]]: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rjF31k4k9fs "Love Love Funny"].▼
▲* [[Image Song]]: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rjF31k4k9fs Love Love Funny].
* [[Kumiko Nishihara]]
* [[Our Dragons Are Different]]: They start out as fuzzy little winged kitties, which can turn into big, (usually) furry winged beasts once they gain access to their full powers.
* [[Snarky Non-Human Sidekick]]
* [[Team Pet]]
* [[Tertiary Sexual Characteristics]]: The biggest differences between Ruby and Nall? Ruby is pink and has a huge bow on her head.
* [[Trademark Favorite Food]]: Fish.
* [[We Are as Mayflies]]: She fears claiming her full power because it means acknowledging that as an adult dragon, she will outlive her friends by centuries.
=== Gwyn ===
{{quote|
* [[Adventurer Archaeologist]]: Much more of an archaeologist and less of an adventurer than his grandson. But he tags along for an early dungeon, so that's saying something.
* [[
* [[Eccentric Mentor]]
* [[Parental Substitute]]: On one hand, [[Word of God]] explains that Gwyn isn't actually related to Hiro.
=== Ronfar ===
[[File:lunarebronfarlowqual_4625.jpg|frame]]
{{quote|
* [[Badass Preacher]]: A former priest of Althena, a pretty well unflappable cool customer, and good guy to have on your side in a fight.
* [[Combat Medic]]: He can dish out some decent damage, especially in the Sega CD version where most of his weapons are maces.
* [[The Gambler]]: His luck with dice is so overwhelming that the game uses it to drive [[But Thou Must!]] scenarios. He only loses when he wants to.
* [[Handsome Lech]]: A number of NPCs comment favorably on his looks, at any rate.
* [[Interspecies Romance]]: With Mauri.
* [[Leitmotif]]: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hV030ZKUmsw Wine, Women and Song]
* [[Loveable Rogue]]: He lies, drinks, and at least ''talks'' about womanizing, but before long proves himself to be loyal, wise, and willing to put himself on the line for people in need.
* [[Obfuscating Stupidity]]: He attempts to pass himself off as a run-of-the-mill barfly when Hiro first comes looking for him.
* [[Oral Fixation Fixation]]: Perpetually has a twig dangling from the corner of his mouth.
* [[Ryotaro Okiayu]]
=== Jean ===
[[File:lunarebjeanlowqual_7243.jpg|frame]]
{{quote|
* [[Action Girl]]
* [[Adaptation Dye Job]]: [[Green Eyes]] in the Sega CD version, [[Brown Eyes]] in the remake.
Line 94 ⟶ 92:
* [[Bare Your Midriff]]: Her dancing dress.
* [[Beauty Mark]]: Near the corner of her mouth.
* [[The Big Guy|The Big Girl]]: Jean is one of the game's leading damage-dealers, though she doesn't fit any of the personality profiles for the trope very well.
* [[Combat Stilettos]]: To go with her dancing dress.
* [[Dance Battler]]
* {{spoiler|[[Dark and Troubled Past]]: Although she is a genuinely kind smiling woman, it still haunts her
* [[Hair Decorations]]: Sports a distinctive [[Fashionable Asymmetry|side-ponytail]], tied with either a [[Flower in Her Hair|flower accessory]] or a plain ribbon, depending on her outfit.
* [[Hot Gypsy Woman]]
* {{spoiler|[[If You Kill Him You Will Be Just Like Him]]: The main reason she couldn't kill her old master
* [[Improbable Weapon User]]: She throws her dancer fans at enemies.
* [[Kamehame Hadouken]]: The "Haduken", renamed the Blue Dragon Palm in the remake, is one of her regular attacks. She also has a [[Shoryuken]] called Blue Dragon Fist.
* [[Ki Attacks]]: She gains access to kung-fu-style energy attacks after confronting her past.
* [[Leitmotif]]: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bz3-Vqqqfrc Gypsy Heart]. You might notice that it seems to change into a different song midway. This is because in the Sega CD version, it ''was'' two separate themes, one for her initial introduction, and one for her costume change.
** In the ''Eternal Blue Complete'' remake, she actually gains a ''third'' theme, Oasis Rose, which plays for her introduction and when viewing her bromides. Unfortunately, it's not used as proper BGM, so it doesn't appear on the soundtrack.
* [[Magic Dance]]
▲* [[Martial Arts Headband]]: In her martial arts outfit.
* [[Martial Pacifist]] and [[Technical Pacifist]]: At first, [[Actual Pacifist|she refuses to even fight at all]], even when her caravan is in danger. This changes after some words of encouragement from Hiro successfully inspire her to use her strength to save her friends. But she is sworn against killing anyone, {{spoiler|even her loathed [[Evil Mentor]] who trained her to kill people in the first place}}.
* [[Power Fist]]: Her second weapon-of-choice.
* [[She's Got Legs]]
* [[Standard Status Effects]]: Her dance-based special moves inflict poison, paralysis, etc.
* [[Took a Level
* [[You Gotta Have Blue Hair
=== Lemina Ausa ===

{{quote|

* [[Black Magician Girl]]: In her own words, the Junior Premier of the Magic Guild of Vane.
* [[Catch Phrase]]
* [[Fortune Teller]]: When she first appears, she poses as one to trick people to taking a Magic Guild recruitment test.
* [[Hair Decorations]]: Her hair ribbon.▼
* [[Furo Scene]]: [http://lunar-net.com/merchandise/allthelunar/media/LeminaBromide2.bmp One of her bromides.]
* [[Genki Girl]]
* [[Giant Waist Ribbon]]
▲* [[Hair Decorations]]: Her hair ribbon.
* [[Image Song]]: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uu0A2OkWrVY "Money
* [[In the Hood]]: Worn in her introduction. Lampshaded by the other characters, who pointed out how weird this looked.
* [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold]]: She drives everyone crazy with her constant attempts to talk people out of their money, but she's doing it because she loves her mom and her hometown. In Vane, people seem to like her quite well.
* [[Leitmotif]]: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oM1gYyvffWE Holding On].
* [[Megumi Hayashibara]]
* [[Miser Advisor]]: Lemina is always running an angle which usually looks like self-interest. She joins the quest to talk the other characters into joining the Magic Guild, thereby building the prestige of her hometown. She's been known to haggle with NPCs who offer to buy '''Ruby'''.
* [[Money Fetish]]: Another one of her bromides, showing her counting and polishing her coins in bed.

* [[Terms of Endangerment]]: Addresses Lemina with an assortment of food-themed pet names.
* [[Villainous Glutton]]

* [[Cute Little Fangs]]
* [[The Dark Chick]]
* [[
* {{spoiler|[[Journey to the Center of the Mind]]: Ronfar has to do this to save her from Zophar's influence

* [[Rica Matsumoto]]
* [[We Are as Mayflies]]: He has survived his friends from the original cast, and shows clear signs of missing them. Which leads to...
Line 219 ⟶ 216:
=== Giban ===
{{quote|
* [[Expy]]: Of Laike! The scruffy beard, the aloof fatherliness, the way he throws back his head when he laughs... In fact, he actually was Laike in early drafts of the story.
=== Miria Ausa ===
{{quote|
* [[Bunny Ears Lawyer]]: A genuine [[Reasonable Authority Figure]], but she's a little quirky...
* [[Doting Parent]]: She adores Lemina.

* [[Iemasa Kayumi]]
* [[Jackass Genie]]: In return for her servitude, Zophar promises to grant {{spoiler|the fake Althena}} eternal beauty and youth. Instead, he turns her into a blue-skinned monster woman with a scorpion's body. In retrospect, maybe it was a bad idea to ask an [[Eldritch Abomination]] for something as subjective as ''beauty''.
* [[Large Ham]]

* [[Omnicidal Maniac]]: Wants to destroy everything and created it as he sees fit.
