Magiere:

• • Action Girl
  • Anti-Anti-Christ
  • Berserk Button: Don't bring up supersition in her presence- she was on the recieving end of too much of it. Also, her dhampir nature makes the presence of a vampire a major Berserk Button.
  • Broken Bird
  • Dark Is Not Evil
  • Dhampyr
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold
  • Kuudere / Tsundere: Magiere's attitude is usually cool and businesslike. Anger is the most common emotion she does show. But she also has a softer side, though very few have seen it.
  • Eerie Pale-Skinned Brunette
  • Super-Powered Evil Side: Her dhampir nature.
  • Uncanny Valley: Her appearance in general is just a little...off.
  • Vampire Hunter: What she pretends to be, and later becomes for real.

Leesil

• • Career Killers: He used to be an assassin, and still has the tools.
  • Half-Human Hybrid: Half-elven, to be specific.
  • Lovable Rogue: How he portrays himself, though he's rather more complicated beneath the surface.
  • Parental Abandonment: His Disappeared Dad was killed by Lord Darmouth. His Missing Mom survived, but was taken captive by her own people.
  • Troubled but Cute
  • White-Haired Pretty Boy: Well, white-blond.

Chap

• • Angry Guard Dog: Don't threaten Magiere or Leesil in front of him. It won't be pretty.
  • Canine Companion
  • Dogs Are Dumb: Thoroughly averted. Chap is one of the smartest characters in the series.
  • Fay In Canine Form
  • Obfuscating Stupidity
  • The Voiceless: Chap understands Elvish and bits of some other languages, but his dog's vocal chords keep him from actually speaking.

Wynn Hygeorht

• • The Chick
  • The Heart: She even calls herself Magiere's conscience
  • Light'Em Up: In the second arc, Wynn's primary weapon against the undead is a magic staff that generates sunlight.
  • Moment Killer: Her interrupting Magiere and Leesil in romantic moments is something of a Running Gag.
  • Power Incontinence: Her mantic sight, the ability to see magical energy, is very hard to control.
  • The Quiet One: At first. She starts talking more later on.
  • The Smart Guy
  • Squishy Wizard

Welstiel Masing

• • Affably Evil
  • Anti-Magic: His "ring of nothing", which shields him from all magical enquiry preventing people from discovering that he's a vampire
  • Anti-Villain: Subverted. He looks like this at first, until it becomes apparent the depths he's willing to sink to in order to achieve his goals.
  • Evil Mentor
  • Evil Sorcerer: Specializing in artifice
  • I Am Your Father: Almost. He's actually Magiere's half-brother
  • Magic Knight: Not as much as Chane
  • Magnificent Bastard
  • Mysterious Protector: Subverted. He's only helping Magiere to advance his own agenda
  • Older Than They Look: Variation. His grey hair makes him look middle-aged. Physically, he's somewhat younger than that but because he's a vampire, he's actually quite a bit older than he looks.
  • Treacherous Advisor

Chane Andraso

• • Abusive Parents
  • Blood Knight
  • Complete Monster: Very much so, in the first arc. He's not as dangerous to the world as a whole as some of the other villains, but is easily one of the most personally bloodthirsty.
    • Retired Monster: In the second arc, owing to trying to make a good impression on Wynn. He's not actually any less evil, though, just less blatant about it.
  • The Dragon: At first to his sire, Toret, and after his death to Welstiel
  • Heel Realization: Admits that he's a monster at the end of the first arc. As noted in Retired Monster above, though, it doesn't make him any less evil in a meaningful sense, just less blatant and feral about it.
  • Karma Houdini: So far, he's had remarkably little punishment to fit his crimes- but on the other hand, the series is far from over...
  • Living Lie Detector: One of his vampiric powers, which first begins manifesting in Child of a Dead God.
  • Magic Knight
  • Morality Pet: Wynn is the only thing he cares about enough to try and control his feral vampire nature.
  • Psycho for Hire
  • Scars Are Forever: Though vampires can normally heal any wound, the scars on Chane's back and neck will last forever.
  • The Sociopath: Borderline case. His relationship with Wynn shows he's capable of at least some empathy- he just normally doesn't bother. YMMV on whether this makes him more or less of a Complete Monster.
  • Token Evil Teammate: In the second arc.
  • Vader Breath: He survived a beheading thanks to Welstiel's magic, but it permanently damaged his voice.

Ubad

• • Black Cloak
  • Complete Monster
  • Eyeless Face: He wears a leather mask over his eyes, and is apparently blind. The host of spirits that swarm about him act as his eyes.
  • Evil Old Folks
  • Evil Sorcerer
  • Necromancer
  • Nightmare Fuel

Lord Darmouth

• • Asskicking Equals Authority: How he and his ancestors won their throne.
  • Complete Monster
  • Evil Overlord

Most Aged Father

• • Animals Hate Him: Majay-hi avoid him, unnerved by the way he has unnaturally extended his lifespan
  • The Chessmaster
  • Evil Old Folks
  • Freudian Excuse: His being present at the creation of the first undead might explain his paranoid attitude.
  • The Man Behind the Curtain: Despite his fearsome reputation, he's a withered old elf who's barely moved in centuries.
  • Meaningful Name
    • Meaningful Rename: His original name was Sorkhafare. He abandoned it when he became the leader of the an'Croan elves.
  • Well-Intentioned Extremist
  • Villain with Good Publicity: At least among the Elves.

Sau'ilahk

• • And I Must Scream: his final fate
  • Black Cloak
  • Deal with the Devil: He bargained with il'Samar for eternal life and youth. He got one, but not the other.
  • Enemy to All Living Things: Even moreso than most undead.
  • Evil Sorcerer
  • Hidden Agenda Villain
  • Intangible Man
  • Religion of Evil: In life, he was the high priest of one.
  • Touch of Death

il'Samar

• • Big Bad
  • The Chessmaster
  • Eldritch Abomination: or possibly God of Evil- it's unclear at this point.
  • I Have Many Names: il'Samar, the Night Voice, the Ancient Enemy, the Nightfaller, Beloved, and presumably many more. It's called "The Enemy of Many Names" for a reason.
  • The Man Behind the Man: It was manipulating Ubad, Welstiel, and Sau'ilahk.
  • Omnicidal Maniac
  • Reptiles Are Abhorrent: It usually appears as a giant snake.
  • Sealed Evil in a Can
