'''''The Settlers: Rise
Gameplay generally consists of giving orders to build a city and watching them be carried out by the titular Settlers, or peasants of your kingdom. It is possible to build extremely elaborate towns. In the later levels,
Unusually for a [[RTS]], the game has a core cast of Knights: Marcus, Alandra, Elias, Kestral, Hakim and Thordal. These characters function as special units within the game and introduce missions in the briefing room. However, they have surprisingly well-developed personalities as well as unique abilities, and are one of the more entertaining aspects of the game.

* [[Action Girl]]: Alandra, Kestral and Crimson Sabatt.

* [[Combat Medic]]: Alandra.
* [[Comic Book Time]]: And how. One level can take you fifty in-game years to complete, but your knights are still as young as ever at the end of it.

* [[No Indoor Voice]]: Thordal. When combined with [[Most Annoying Sound]] above, it's not pretty.
* [[No Name Given]]: The Red Prince. He doesn't get one in fanon either.

* [[Obviously Evil]]: The Red Prince and Crimson Sabatt. [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast|The names]] and the outfits kind of give it away.
* [[Offscreen Teleportation]]: Crimson Sabatt can travel quite comfortably between Tios in level 11, to Sahir in level 12, back to Vestholm for the cutscene after level 12, and then to Montecito in level 13. And that's just one example.
Line 53:
* [[Shiny Midnight Black]]: Crimson Sabatt's hair.
* [[Sim Sim Salabim]]: The expansion pack's setting has elements of this.
* [[Welcome Back, Traitor]]: In the expansion, [[The Mole]] from the original game may be playable depending upon who it was.
