Tactics Ogre/Characters: Difference between revisions

 

* [[A Commander Is You]]

* [[Adaptation Dye Job]] - His in-game sprite has blond hair whereas his portrait (especially in the PSP remake) depicts it as either dark brown or auburn.

* {{spoiler|[[Cutscene Incompetence]]: In one possible ending, he is one-shot-killed by a handgun.}}

* [[Wide-Eyed Idealist]] - He starts out as a naïve idealist, but his views may vary depending on the choices he makes.

* [[Wise Beyond Their Years]]

 

=== Catiua Pavel (Kachua Powell) {{spoiler|Versalia Oberyth}}[[File:Catiua 5734.jpg|frame]] ===

* {{spoiler|[[Chronic Backstabbing Disorder]]: In the Chaos & Neutral routes.}}

* {{spoiler|[[Cutscene Power to the Max]]: He fatally wounds Ravness with a single crossbow shot. Typical crossbows available in Chapter 1 generally do not mortally wound much of anything in one shot.}}

* [[Duel Boss]]: In the Chaos route.

* [[Evil Makeover]]: In the Chaos and Neutral routes, in addition to getting a sadistic look on his face, his hair also inexplicably becomes more evil. He is often referred to as "Sadistic Vyce" in this form. In the PSP version, his appearance changes even more drastically, making him look like some kind of beast or demon.

* {{spoiler|[[Came Back Wrong]]: Courtesy of Nybeth, in all routes.}}

* [[I Did What I Had to Do]]

* [[The Starscream]]: In the Law route

* [[Suicide by Cop]]: Implied in the Chaos route {{spoiler|where it's revealed that he purposely put all the dark-hearted resistance members in the path of Denam, and admits that Denam was right after he is mortally wounded.}}

* {{spoiler|[[Cutscene Incompetence]]: Despite her combat abilities, it takes a single crossbow bolt from Vyce to fatally wound her.}}

* [[Expy]]: She’s Tactics Ogre’s answer to Agrias Oaks of [[Final Fantasy Tactics]] fame in almost every way.

** Looking her name up on any search engine will give you links to about a dozen different threads involving the very complicated steps the player must take to get her.

* [[Lady of War]]

* [[Noble Fugitive]]: Ravness becomes a fine example of this trope in later chapters (provided if she’s still alive in each hostile encounter).

* [[Ship Tease]]: Her and Canopus.

* [[Zettai Ryouiki]]

 

 

* [[The Generic Guy]]

 

=== Sara Ostvald (Sara) ===

A Galgastani who leads the Knights of Galgastan. He served directly under Balbatos, hunting down the Hierophant's enemies at home and suppressing the Walister.

 

* [[Dragon His Feet]]: He never quits, even after Balbatos is defeated.

* [[Hannibal Lecture]] : Gives this to Denam on pretty much every route

* {{spoiler|[[Disc One Final Boss]]: Although his defeat ends the war, there is more to be done afterwards.}}

* {{spoiler|[[Luke, I Am Your Father]]: Or rather, your uncle.}}

* [[Well-Intentioned Extremist]]

 

* [[Blow You Away]]

* [[Breast Plate]]: Her PSP remake portrait seems to have her wear one along with her normal yellow clothes.

* [[Hollywood Pudgy]]: That sprite of hers make her look fat, thus she's the subject of various fat jokes.

* [[Video Game Cruelty Potential]]: She may look fine and normal, but you could go out of your way to make her miserable, which includes getting Folcurt killed before he could rescue her, or taking the Neutral route and let her see Cerya die. Or not recruiting Sherri and kill her...

* [[What Happened to the Mouse?]]: Is not heard of again in the Law Route. {{spoiler|Not even during the scene when Cerya gets killed by the Dark Knights. Could've had an offscreen death though}}

* [[Wide-Eyed Idealist]]: Unlike Cerya, she doesn't like staining her hands with blood to achieve her goal.

 

A Xenobian from the city of Peshaval in Chariom who once captained the Beast Legion of the Kingdom of New Xenobia. He came to Valeria with the Holy Knight Lanselot {{spoiler|to recover the sword Brynhildr at the behest of King Tristan of Xenobia.}} He joined the Walister Resistance after aiding Denam in freeing Duke Ronwey from his imprisonment at Almorica Castle. Since then he has accompanied Denam. He appears young in years, as winged folk live to thrice the age of men.

 

* [[Game Breaker]]: Oh God, where to begin? He has the lightest step on the battlefield out of all your beginning characters, has a good strength stat, possesses the widest range of abilities, and has the greatest weapon versatility short of Lord or Astromancer.

* [[Older Than They Look]]

Second-in-command of the Dark Knights Loslorien, hailing from Gallius, seat of the Holy Lodissian Empire. He is the son of Stratarchis Vogras, who commanded five of the orders of knighthood in Lodis. Loslorien enjoys independence from the Senate thanks to the influence of Vogras. Balxephon is a firm believer in discipline and following orders.

 

 

=== Volaq Windsalf (Volac Winzalf) ===

A Loslorien commander. Little is known of his past, or how he came to join the Dark Knights. His loyalty to Lodis is unquestionable, and he has earned a great deal of respect from those serving under him. A career soldier, he never lets personal matters interfere with his duties.

 

 

=== Martym Noumous (Martym Nowmas) ===

* [[Ax Crazy]]

* [[Blood Knight]]: He disobeys orders just for a chance to clash swords with Lans Hamilton.

* [[Not So Different]]: claims that Denam seeks the thrill of battle just as much as he.

 

=== Oz Moh Glacius (Oz Mow Gracious) ===

 

* [[An Ice Person]]: Starts with ice magic.

* [[I Hate Past Me]]: Has some...interesting conversations with her past self in the final bonus battle. Before killing her.

** {{spoiler|That's because he was her former fiancee}}

* [[Weapon of Choice]]: Already proficient in [[Whip It Good|whips]] and [[Heroes Prefer Swords|one handed swords]]. She even has a unique finisher with the former.

A Loslorien commander from Niemaran, a small town in the borderlands of Lodis. He is of Bolmoccan descent. He is last born of the former Nildahme royal house, which once wielded great power throughout the Sea of Lhai region. The Holy Lodissian Empire saw the bountiful lands of the Kingdom of Nildahme as ripe for the taking. They staged an uprising among the enslaved mass from which the ruling house had fattened their purse, then sent in their armies. Fearing for his life, the King hastily abandoned all resistance, and yielded to the Lodissians. Since then the Bolmoccans have endured lives of servitude. He prefers hand-to-hand combat to swordplay, and is a masterful strategist.

 

* [[Bare-Fisted Monk]]: Stated to prefer fists over swords. He does equip fist-based weaponry though.

* [[Fallen Princess|Fallen Prince]]

 

== Necromancers ==

* [[Bad Powers, Good People]]: She became a necromancer for the sole purpose of helping the dead achieve peace by fulfilling their dying wishes.

* [[Guide Dang It]]: Don't lie - ''nobody'' recruited her without consulting a guide.

* [[My God, What Have I Done?]]

* [[Mythology Gag]]: Her first name is the same as that of a minor boss in ''Knight of Lodis'', whose motivation for fighting you was revenge for the death of her parents.

 

=== Reymos Cavour ===

 

* [[Odd Name Out]]: In the first version of the game, she was the only sister to not have a "S" at the start of her name. In the second version of the game, she is still the only sister to lack a soft consonant at the start of her name.

 

=== Archiereus Mreuva Phoraena (Moruba Foriner) ===

* [[Blind Weaponmaster]]

* [[Cutscene Power to the Max]]: He is introduced felling two pursuers with one stroke, but he can scarce repeat such a feat with a single foe in the following battle.

* [[You Killed My Father]]: {{spoiler|Or rather, ours}}.

 

 

* [[Optional Party Member]]

 

=== Deneb Rove (Deneb Rhobe) ===

* [[The Dragon]]: {{spoiler|to Rashidi, who is the original game's Big Bad.}}
