Line 47:
 
== Jewel ==
* [[Action Girl]]: Tough and energetic, as well as a trained Knight.
* [[All Love Is Unrequited]]: Her crush on Snowe, who takes her lighthearted teasing too seriously.
* [[Darkskinned Blonde]]: Like many from Na-Nal, she has white hair and dark skin.
* [[Defector From Decadence]]: She left her homeland of Na-Nal at a young age because she refused to tolerate the island's strict caste system or the Chief's arrogance.
* [[Fragile Speedster]]
Line 59:
 
== Keneth ==
* [[Bishounen]]: Tall, lanky and longish hair.
* [[For Great Justice]]: Keneth tends to play the straight and dutiful knight.
* [[Hard Work Hardly Works]]: [[Averted]] again;: like Lazlo, he trained hard and took his duties seriously, and as of ''[[Suikoden Tactics]]'', {{spoiler|he's Vice-Commander of the Knights of Razril}}.
* [[Heroes Prefer Swords]]: He wields the 7-Star Sword.
* [[Jack of All Stats]]: Has a pretty balanced stat.

== Paula ==
* [[Action Girl]]: More magical than Jewel, but she doesn't shy away from combat.
* [[Curtains Match the Window]]: Has orange eyes to match her hair.
* [[Emotionless Girl]]: She speaks in a dispassionate manner. Even if she's seeing Lazlo off before his exile, she only takes his hand, and logically states "I believe in your innocence."
* [[Emotionless Girl]]
* [[Generation Xerox]]: Resembles her mother so closely that the elves of Na-Nal were immediately able to recognize her as Romina's daughter, and bar her from their village because she now shared her mother's crimes. (Thethe exact nature of those crimes never being specified, but given the nature of the Na-Nal elves, probably amounting to nothing more than "not being a [[Jerkass]] to the humans.").
* [[Heroes Prefer Swords]]: She wields the Elven Sword.
* [[Magic Knight]]: Her magical skills rival that of the starting wizards, although what she lacks in magical affinity is made up for with her sword arm.
* [[Magic Knight]]
* [[Michelle Ruff]]: Her voice actress.
* [[Pointy Ears]]: It's the only way anyone could tell she is an elf.

== Tal ==
* [[Big Brother Instinct]]: Towards the hero.
* [[Big Eater]]: He often thinks with his stomach.
* [[The Big Guy]]: He's got the most attack, defense, and HP among the four knights.
* [[Doug Erholtz]]: His voice actor.
* [[Heavy Sleeper]]: He finds early rising a problem, and is prone to nodding off during speeches.
Line 94:
 
== Glen Cott ==
* {{spoiler|[[Blackmail]]: After Gaien [[All There in the Manual|scaled back their naval funding]] and left Razril to fend for itself, [[Smug Snake|Vincent Vingerhut]] took advantage of this to start blackmailing the knights—eitherknights... either do as he asked, or he'd withdraw his financal support. Glen resents this arrangement, but can't bring himself to act against Vincent's wishes.}}.
* [[Get a Hold of Yourself, Man!]]: Done to Snowe, after he leaves his crew at Brandeau mercy and escapes by his own.
* {{spoiler|[[Heroic Sacrifice]]: Uses the Rune of Punishment to wipe out most of the forces attacking Razril, trading his life for that power.}}.
* [[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero]]: {{spoiler|Despite not feeling Snowe was ready to graduate, let alone act as a leader, Glen complied with Vincent's wishes and kept putting Snowe in positions above what he was ready for. When Snowe screws up, he then slaps him around, contributing to Snowe's confusion and resentment of Lazlo}}...}}
* {{spoiler|[[Plotline Death]]: Glen makes a [[Heroic Sacrifice]] by using the Rune of Punishment to wipe out most of the forces attacking Razril, trading his life for that power}}.
* {{spoiler|[[Plotline Death]]}}

* [[Defrosting Ice Queen]]: {{spoiler|When she finally finds out that the hero ''did not'' kill her father.}}.
* [[Hair of Gold]]
* [[Lady of War]]: Her long robes and [[Flash Step]] lend her poise to this trope.

* [[Magic Wand]]: She wields the Kal E Kaganara.
* [[Number Two]]: She's Glen's Vice-Commander and a talented spellcaster.

* [[Funny Animal]]
* [[Intrepid Merchant]]: He becomes quite famous in his home village on Nay.
* [[Little Stowaway]]: When he hitches a ride on the wrong boat, he ends up part of Lazlo's entourage.
* [[Non-Human Sidekick]]: To Lazlo and the other two knights that accompany him during his exile.
* [[Petting Zoo People]] -: Nay-Kobold is a play on ''neko''-bold; they're a feline-based version of the dog-like kobolds seen in other ''[[Suikoden]]''s.

* [[Young Entrepreneur]]: He wants to start his own merchant company.
