===Lucia Who is Definitely Not the Lord of Calamity===


*[[Lucia]] - The Most Beautiful Woman Ever - Yes he seriously thinks that.  But more to the point, despite being a lovestruck teenager, Hiro seriously admires Lucia. She came all the way from her world to save his, and with a few twitches of her little finger decimated some of the fiercest monsters he'd ever fought.  She's rendered navigating some puzzles in ruins a trivial affair, so she's obviously incredibly intelligent too. And let's not forget her mission!  She came all the way from the Blue Star to Lunar to save it. How selfless is that?  Maybe she doesn't know that much about how to deal with people and he doesn't understand her at all; but he's determined to help her with her mission, no matter what the consequences may be to himself.  He genuinely regards his journey with her as the greatest adventure of his life.
'''Top 10 Things Hiro Admires about Lucia... '''


*[[Jean]] - While Jean and Hiro haven't known each other for too long, Hiro knows at the very least that she has a past that she doesn't want to talk about.  And that's fine by him, he doesn't intend to invade her privacy.  Jean doesn't seem to think much of herself, but he thinks the world of her.  She's the best dancer he's ever seen, a splendid fighter, and so far a good friend.  Jean doesn't enjoy fighting, but the two have agreed to start training together so they can better protect what they care about. 
"Do I really have to pick just ten?"


*[[Lemina]] - Life with Lemina is already like being in the middle of a tornado given the whirlwind of events she's swept them up in.  She's put them through some insane magic test to twist their arms into joining the Magic Guild of Vane, took them on a Magic Carpet Ride to the Blue Star.  It's really a wonder that Hiro thinks well of her despite all that, but he does.  He sees a young woman who is very passionate about restoring something important to her.  She just gets a little carried away.  And her skills of magic are second to none!  They're really going to need them if their first few moments in Filgaia are any indication.
<span style="color:#FF66B2">"You'd better not pick more if you know what's good for you mister."</span>


*Ronfar - Ronfar may be kind of a scoundrel, but he has a bigger heart than he lets on. He saved Lucia after all, he defied his former best friend Leo. He seems to really be hurting over some past failure that led him to leave the Church of Althena. His incredible healing skills are always a great asset, doing anything from regular healing to breaking a dark curse that could disable Lucia!  Hiro thinks a lot of him, and looks up to him, he just wishes that he'd lay off the lecher act.
'''...and Ruby's commentary on it.'''


*Ruby - Ruby is honestly like a little sister to Hiro, though she doesn't like hearing that, so in practice she's more like his best friend. The two grew up together and Hiro believes Ruby is playing games when she says things like he's hers and the like. Obviously she can't be serious right?
1.  Her selfless dedication to her mission, and her willingness to take on the world for the sake of it.
*<span style="color:#FF66B2">The words you're looking for are single-minded and suicidal Hiro.</span>


*Gwyn - Hiro's Grandfather is the smartest guy Hiro knows, and despite what he says, Hiro doesn't believe age has slowed him down at all.  He taught him everything about navigating ancient ruins and swordmanship, and he instilled in Hiro a very strong sense of right and wrong, such that he had no qualms sending him off on a mission with Lucia even knowing it might get him in a lot of troubleHiro strongly hopes his Grandpa is safe, and that Althena's Guard won't come after him.
2.  The amount of wonder she finds in small things like seagulls or the vast blue sky.
*<span style="color:#FF66B2">Why can't she find wonder in something truly magical, like a fish market?</span>
 
3Her courage when it comes to facing challenges, often walking right through them!
*<span style="color:#FF66B2">Which she'll often forget she can do at the worst times, and remember at the most frustrating!</span>


*[[Zed]] - The Ultimate Macho Man, the Grim Reaper's Pen Pal, the Hero that walks into the Dark so we don't have toRuby thinks he's kind of a doofus but Hiro likes him. He'd barely met Lucia and already dedicated himself to her mission, and immediately came to her defense when they were attacked by the Shepherd, his allies, and Althena's Guard.  Sometimes he's a little silly, but Hiro enjoys the friendly rivalry the two have in physical feats, and the idea of having him as a training partner for swordsmanship.
4Her complete lack of ego or pride when it comes to retreating from something too dangerous.
*<span style="color:#FF66B2">Often without telling us and leaving us behind to face the danger she just ran from on our own!</span>


*[[Kalve]] - Kalve has been rather taciturn, but sometimes actions speak louder than words.  He came to Lucia's defense when she was under attack, and even threw Hiro a shield when his improvised one was destroyed by the Shepherd.  Hiro still wants to know why it vanished, but he's grateful for an act which he thinks saved his life against the legend.
5.  Her intelligence which is shown as she effortlessly navigates her way through puzzles and traps.
*<span style="color:#FF66B2">Almost always without giving us the courtesy of a warning or lifting a finger to help!</span>
 
6.  Her dedication to continue onward even when she's exhausted or injured, often without even healing herself!
*<span style="color:#FF66B2">You might as well admire a horse running themselves into the ground!  Hiro what's there to admire about letting yourself bleed to death when you have healing magic?</span>
 
7.  Her forthrightness when it comes to pursuing information.
*<span style="color:#FF66B2">How is her way of walking up to random people in town and demanding to know the way back to Lunar admirable!?  We're trying to keep a low profile remember?  Hiro!</span>
 
8.  "The adorable way she can take everything everyone says so literally."
*<span style="color:#FF66B2">The fact that this girl is a threat to me at all fills me with rage and shame beyond imagining.</span>
 
9.  Her scholarly interest in old stories and tales of the Blue Star.
*<span style="color:#FF66B2">It was smut Hiro!  Smut from a bygone era that should have stayed buried!  Smut that she valued above all of us I might add!</span>
 
10.  Her lovely hair of the most wonderful shade of blue, the way the look in her lovely green eyes can change from heartfelt sorrow to passionate in an instant, her perfect nose, the cute little curve of her ears, her ecclectic fashion sense that perfectly complements her hair with red and black, the sound of her voice when she casts a spell, or says anything at all for that matter-"
*<span style="color:#FF66B2">Hey Hiro you've got a little something on your chin.  Let me wipe it off for you... </span>
 
===The Vile Fiends===
 
[[Jean]] - Jean's got a good head on her shoulders, and battle prowess I can only dream about!  We've started training together, and oof-  it's going to lead to a lot of sore days.  I can barely land a hit on her.  I just wish she didn't take so much pleasure in teasing me, but people tease because they care right?  Still-  I get this impression she doesn't think so much of herself and doesn't want to talk about it.  I wonder what happened?''
*<span style="color:#FF66B2">Jean's the best.  I would light a man on fire for Jean.  Or dozens-  why stop with just one? </span>
 
[[Lemina Ausa]] - Lemina is well...  one of a kind?  She's a lot of fun to be around and she really knows her stuff about magic.  I kind of wonder why she's so obsessed with restoring the magic guild of Vane, but obviously she cares a lot about it.  And I'm hoping she can teach me a thing or too about my magic.  Ruby's kind of sore at her about trapping us on the Blue Star but to me it's been a pretty grand adventure so far?  The Blue Star!  This is the kind of thing I could only dream of as a kid.
*<span style="color:#FF66B2">Obviously blind since she implemented a rule not allowing cats into her Magic Guild the moment I expressed interest when I'm a majestic Red Dragon- and a total scam artist!  Trapped us on the Blue Star on an inane carpet ride that was supposed to just get us down a cliff.  Even so she still ranks higher than Ronfar. </span>
 
Ronfar - Ronfar may be kind of a scoundrel, but he has a bigger heart than he lets on.  He saved Lucia after all, he defied his former best friend Leo.  He seems to really be hurting over some past failure that led him to leave the Church of Althena.  His incredible healing skills are always a great asset, doing anything from regular healing to breaking a dark curse that could disable Lucia!  Hiro thinks a lot of him, and looks up to him, he just wishes that he'd lay off the lecher act.''
*<span style="color:#FF66B2">''I've decided to list just Ronfar's positive qualities to save time...  he's very flammable. </span>
 
Ruby -  Ruby is wonderful.  The best adventuring assistant a guy could ask for.  We grew up together and she's my best friend in every way that matters.  Maybe we don't always get along, but we care about each other in the way that matters right?
*<span style="color:#FF66B2">Hiro I'm not your adventuring assistant, I'm your girlfriend!  And another way to phrase not always getting along is 'fighting like an old married couple' which by the way-  if you're proposing; well I'd give it the proper consideration!  Even if you couldn't get almost anything right, the rest of it was surprisingly sweet you big dummy. </span>
 
Gwyn - Grandpa Gwyn brought me up right and taught me everything I know about old legends, and navigating ancient ruins.  I owe him everything and more.  I just hope he's doing alright back on Lunar...
*<span style="color:#FF66B2">I'm gonna miss the old codger a lot.  His taste in fish was A+. </span>
 
===Other Friends and Allies===
 
[[Zed]] - Zed's a great guy.  He'd barely met Lucia and already leapt to her defense.  And he's a pretty fun rival!  I think I could learn a lot from sticking with him.  ...  I just hope he never brings up Steam Drills again.
*<span style="color:#FF66B2">Hiro please I'm begging you, get clear of this doofus before he gets you and all of us killed! </span>
 
[[Kalve]] - Doesn't say much, but he's got a great poncho and immediately stepped up to defend Lucia.  That shield he gave me was great!  Probably saved my life, but I wonder why it vanished like that?''
*<span style="color:#FF66B2">''Terrible taste in clothes and friendsStill he saved Hiro's bacon out there.  That gets him high marks in my book. </span>
 
[[Virginia Maxwell]] - Virginia is a great girl and I actually feel pretty bad about getting her caught up in our troubles with the Church of Althena; but she's so kindly offered to help us out despite barely knowing us.  I think the world of her.
*<span style="color:#FF66B2">I'll never forget the way she set an angry mob on fire while drunk-  hilarious!  Also she believed I was a Red Dragon from the start.  Calling it now, this girl will go far. </span>
 
[[Maya Schrodinger]] - Maya is a pretty interesting character!  I'm not entirely sure what to really think of her yet but she's still pretty friendly.  She has trouble believing our story, but I can hardly blame her for that.  She sort of gives off the impression that she looks out for number one, and can handle herself well enough that I believe it; yet at the same time she seems to really look out for Virginia.
*<span style="color:#FF66B2">Kind of a scoundrel, and kind of not?  Maya seems like a girl of a lot of contradictions.  Maybe she'll sell us out, but only if she decides there's glory in it.  Gonna keep a close eye on her... </span>


===Acquaintances===
===Acquaintances===


*[[Talise Gianfair]] - Hiro suspects Tali is from Lunar, but doesn't know for sureSo far he thinks well of her, and would venture into ancient ruins with her any timeRuby has taken a shine to her for believing she's a Red Dragon.   
[[Talise Gianfair]] - Tal is great!  She's a great adventuring partner who really knows her way around ancient ruins.  She's definitely from our world and I need to follow up and have a chat with her on that...''
*<span style="color:#FF66B2">''Strong.  Reliable.  Immediately thought that me being a Red Dragon was the coolest thing.  For once Hiro you're definitely right, Tal's great! </span>
 
[[Sephilia Lampbright]] - Sephy's an interesting girl, and a good hand to have with you on an adventure!  I'm not really sure what to make about Foxey-  uh Lord Chauncey though.  He's cute but he can grow to enormous size and decimate creatures with his giant claws?  Yikes!  Still it's good to know he's looking out for her!  I hope we can help her get back home someday...''  
*<span style="color:#FF66B2">''You know before I asked myself if she should really be playing with dolls at her age, until I saw Chauncey get serious and tear apart giant rats!  How did she get a doll like that? </span>
 
[[Marguerite Fatima]] - Margie's a fun girl to be around, but she can be surprisingly serious too when it comes to matters of faith.  The look in her eyes when I discussed our world and our mission..I had to reassure her that even the goddess Althena needs people to help her out.
*<span style="color:#FF66B2">The clingiest girl I have ever known.  Though it's not like I totally hated it or anything. </span>
 
[[Ida Everstead-Rey]] - She seemed really knowledgeable.  Wish I could have gotten to know her better.  I'm pretty grateful for her distracting Ruby a little when Zed brought up Steam Drills, but what were they talking about?
*<span style="color:#FF66B2">Metal Dragon Graveyard?  Sounds like a scrapyard for the DestinyStill...  worth following up on. </span>
 
[[Lily Keil]] - Didn't really get to know Lily that well, but she really came through for us in the ruins of Sult!
*<span style="color:#FF66B2">A+ fire control.</span>


*[[Sephilia Lampbright]] - Hiro thinks Sephilia is pretty adorable, and that her doll Chauncey, which he's nicknamed as Foxey is equally cuteThe fact that she came to Filgaia from Lunar makes him suspect there's more to her than meets the eye.
[[Leon Albus]] - Pretty military!  I wonder what he was having Lily write in that book.  I'd like to get a better look at his gun one of these days...
*<span style="color:#FF66B2">Seemed a little stiffAnd desperate, I mean he responded to Lucia's request like he really needed to get out of town pronto.</span>


*[[Marguerite Fatima]] - Hiro has no idea that Margie is the head of a Filgaian Church, but did notice how disturbed she was by the idea of the Goddess Althena as her existence seemed to defy the precepts of her faith.  While Hiro isn't exactly the most religious, he still enjoys talking to her.


===Enemies===
===Enemies===


*Leo - White Knight Leo seems like a pretty good guy, he's just stubborn and a little full of himself.  Lucia can't be the Lord of Calamity though and Hiro knows it, he saw her get attacked by ZopharFor a while he was pretty doggedly persistent in tracking the party.  Thankfully now that we're on the Blue Star Hiro believes they're going to be a breather for a while, at least until he gets home. How little does he know.
Leo - White Knight Leo is sort of our primary nemesis, but he's also a pretty good guy.  I just wish he wasn't so stubborn that I could actually convince him that Lucia isn't the Lord of Calamity.  I'm sure she's notDid he actually follow us to the Blue Star!? How?
*<span style="color:#FF66B2">The most sanctimonious jerk ever!  IF I SEE ONE MORE POSTER DECLARING HIRO TO BE LUCIA'S CONSORT I AM GOING TO FIND YOU AND SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT BY GIVING YOU THE WORST HOTFOOT YOU'VE EVER HAD! </span>


*[[Amelia Rose]] - Hiro likes the Priestess, but he knows they're going to come to blows again and again over Lucia being the Lord of CalamityHe does like her dog, Silver though.  Good doggo! He is worried about the effect her battle may have had on Jean.
[[Amelia Rose]] - Seemed like a pretty swell person to get to know.  Too bad she's almost as zealous as Leo about coming after us..Silver is a great dog though!  Who's a good boy?  Who's a good boy!
*<span style="color:#FF66B2">Another member of Althena's Guard who just won't let us have a moment's peaceThere I was just minding my own business- about to order the fish special when she comes waltzing in and starting trouble. And she has the gall to blame us for what happened?  Ugh!  Also stop looking at me like that you flea-bitten mongrel! </span>


*[[Skylr Paer]]- A member of Althena's GuardWhile he hasn't much contact with her, he's really glad Zed was there to hold her off, because things were bad enough without a skilled archer being given freedom to rain arrows down on them.
[[Skylr Paer]] - I really..don't know anything about her.  An archer in Althena's Guard?  I was too busy trying to hold off Sorey to really get a sense of who she is.
*<span style="color:#FF66B2">Some kind of Shepherd?  No not the legendary kind, I just heard her talking about raising sheep in the middle of a fight?  What the heck?  What kind of people are Althena's Guard recruiting!?  I don't want to see what she can do to Hiro if she lines up a clean shot on him... </span>


*[[Sorey]] - The Shepherd. While originally the two got along, it was under the false pretenses of a badly crafted cover identityNow Hiro's come to find out that he's actually one of the legends, and is determined to his duty of defeating the Lord of CalamityFighting him shook Hiro considerably, as it was like coming to blows with one of the legends he grew up on.  He still thinks Sorey is a good person, but Hiro is completely certain he's wrong about Lucia.  Part of him is really glad Lucia retreated, as he's not certain how much longer he could have held out against the powers of the Shepherd.
[[Sorey]] - Sorey is really the legendary Shepherd?  I-  look- even a legend can be wrongHe's a good guy and all but I won't take a chance on him hurting Lucia.  If he tries again, I'll stop him...  somehow.
*<span style="color:#FF66B2">He's definitely the Shepherd.  Those had to be Seraphim leaping out of him.  Hiro doesn't like to talk about it, but it really upsets him that the Shepherd is opposing Lucia.  We used to play games all the time where he'd pretend to be the Dragonmaster or the Shepherd. Hiro please...  be careful around this guy. </span>


*[[Alisha Diphda]]- The Princess Knight of Hyland.  Originally he met Alisha on an expedition into some ancient ruins, but it was under the false pretenses of a badly crafted cover identityHiro thinks a lot of her from the brief time they've met, but he believes Alisha is wrong about Lucia being the Lord of Calamity.  He feels badly about the injuries she received against Kalve, and hopes she recovers soon.
[[Alisha Diphda]] - It's incredible that one of Hyland's Princesses is on Filgaia!  She's everything I'd imagine a Princess to be, strong, dependable, and leads by exampleA fantastic warrior tooIt's just a shame she totally believes Lucia is the Lord of Calamity.  I really don't want to fight her.  I hope she's alright, Kalve seemed to do a number on her...
*<span style="color:#FF66B2">My kind of lady, or at least she would be if she wasn't spoiling for a fight with us.  Really dangerous. </span>


*[[Lailah]] - Hiro barely has any idea that she exists! He knows Lemina fought an extended spell duel with a SeraphRuby is irked because Lailah's powers over fire make her feel inadequate.
[[Lailah]] - Uh... who?
*<span style="color:#FF66B2">The very picture of a dignified lady, like myself..which explains why she wields fire.  Too bad she's directing it at us! </span>


*[[Mikleo]] - Hiro only has an inkling of an idea of his existence. He knows one of the Seraphim combined with Sorey to give him phenomenal powers, but little elseRuby and Mikleo share a rivalry where they tend to snipe at each other.  Her favorite nickname for him so far is Silverfish.
[[Mikleo]] - Ruby who are you arguing with?
*<span style="color:#FF66B2">Silverfish is the most frustrating guy- who just so happens to be a SeraphWhat kind of idiot Seraph doesn't know a Red Dragon when he sees one though?  Obviously he flunked out of Seraph school. </span>


*[[Edna]] - Hiro barely has any idea she existsRuby likes her style.
[[Edna]] - Zed why are you training to fight invisible people?
*<span style="color:#FF66B2">Best, seraph, everI really like her style. Just back off from fighting us and we'll get along just fine! </span>

Hair Colour: Brown
Class: Evil Lieutenant
Role: DRIFTER
Bounty: 25,000
OOC Information
Theme: Lunar 2
Groups: Vile Fiends
Player: Hiro

An adventurous young explorer and archaeologist, Hiro grew up enamored by the legends of his world told to him by his Grandpa Gwyn and delving into ruins alongside his best friend Ruby. Everything changed though when he encountered a maiden by the name of Lucia atop the Blue Spire. Even though the Church of Althena has declared her the Lord of Calamity, he’s steadfast in his belief that her mission to find the Goddess Althena will save their world, not bring it to ruin. While being pursued by White Knight Leo and Althena’s Guard, Hiro and his friends were stranded on the world of Filgaia. Despite being trapped, he intends to make every effort to get them home so that Lucia can complete her mission.

Background

Welcome to the Dragon Ruins. Dank and dilapidated and filled with monsters. Typically fairly silent other than bestial grunting until two shrieks echo through it's halls. A boy rushes out, a flying pink cat darting past him in a panic, following them are a pair of blazing inferno ghouls leaving a trail of flames in their wake. Sliding to a stop, they take a left turn. The Ghouls follow. Then they return to the same hall. The Ghouls follow. Right turn now. The ghouls follow.

Cue Internal Monologue

"Well, looks like you've caught us in another messy situation. Oh, by the way, if you haven't figured it out, my name is Hiro. And the flying cat is named Ruby. She says she's actually a baby red dragon, but I don't know if I quite believe her. She doesn't care though; we've been friends for what seems like forever! My grandfather Gwyn is an archaeologist who taught us how to explore ancient ruins like this...well, not exactly like THIS... Grandpa'd have a coronary if he saw me in this kind of danger! But, you get the idea. I think it's so cool that these dungeons and ruins that time forgot, can be found and explored by someone like me. The world I live in today is the result of things that happened long ago. Someday, I'll gather enough information from ruins like these to prove that!"

More Ghouls join in and get clogged in a narrow doorway. It's pretty sweet. Ruby Raspberries them. They take a wrong turn and a massive boulder starts rolling their way. Backpeddling they almost run afoul of the same ghouls. Somehow these two bonklers make it out by the skin of their teeth. Then a lot happens.

  • Met White Knight Leo, turned down his offer to join Althena's Guard.
  • Travelled to the Blue Spire after a Blue Light appeared, with Ruby and his Grandpa Gwyn. Explored it!
    • Met a girl named Lucia- from the Blue Star- who had phenomenal cosmic power on a mission to save our world by meeting Althena! Pay no attention to what Ruby says about that moment!
      • Lucia gets cursed.
  • Took Lucia to Larpa, met a scoundrel of a Priest named Ronfar! Except he was actually a pretty great guy.
    • Ronfar breaks the curse, but most of Lucia's power is still sealed.
  • Lucia leaves! And promptly gets captured by White Knight Leo
    • Broke her right out of the Dragonship Destiny- Leo must be pretty upset about that one.
  • After a journey through two forests, encountered Giban's Caravan, met a wonderful dancer named Jean!
    • Turns out Jean is a great fighter too! But doesn't want anyone to know about it. When her friends were in danger though she jumped into the fray- I may have helped a little.
  • Encountered this Mysterious Hooded Girl in Takkar. No time to join the Magic Guild though, we're on the run!
    • Mysterious Hooded Girl offers a way out of town! This can't go wrong!
      • IT WENT WRONG! IT WENT SO WRONG! And then it turned out she's really named Lemina Ausa, a mage from the Magic Guild of Vane.
        • We were conscripted, maybe?
  • Magic Carpet Ride! This sounds fun!
    • WHAT? - OW MY SPLEEN
      • WHAT DO YOU MEAN THE BLUE STAR?
  • Well nothing to do but try to get home. Explored the Ruins of Memory. Found some really neat stories from another world.
    • I take it back. The only thing these stories are is embarrassing.

Powers and Abilities

  • Swordsmanship - Hiro uses a Sword Style where the basics were taught to him by his Grandpa Gwyn. Unfortunately he doesn't actually know the name of it. Fortunately Ruby was able to read some of those sections that his Grandpa couldn't. Unfortunately this means he is totally at her mercy when it comes to that! She changes the name constantly but it always has something to do with Red Dragons! Come on Ruby, be serious and just tell me! It's a balanced style, well suited for both offense and defense, excelling at neither. He typically wields his sword one handed with a shield.
  • Wind Sorcery - Black Magic Only - The Blessing of Althena is a real bargain isn't it? The green tattoos on his face were put there by his Grandpa Gwyn to represent his ability to cast this magic.
  • Boomerang - Hiro is surprisingly good at throwing a boomerang! Part of that is that he can subtly use wind sorcery to guide the direction of it, but even without that he'd still be really good at aiming it!
  • Ruby - Ruby despite Hiro totally not believing she is an actual Red Dragon can breathe fire, and often does that quite well at anyone threatening him, or calling her a cat.
  • Budding Archaeologist - Even though he may not look it- see above experience- Hiro actually has a goodly amount of experience exploring Ancient Ruins on Lunar.

Relationships

Lucia Who is Definitely Not the Lord of Calamity

Top 10 Things Hiro Admires about Lucia...

"Do I really have to pick just ten?"

"You'd better not pick more if you know what's good for you mister."

...and Ruby's commentary on it.

1. Her selfless dedication to her mission, and her willingness to take on the world for the sake of it.

  • The words you're looking for are single-minded and suicidal Hiro.

2. The amount of wonder she finds in small things like seagulls or the vast blue sky.

  • Why can't she find wonder in something truly magical, like a fish market?

3. Her courage when it comes to facing challenges, often walking right through them!

  • Which she'll often forget she can do at the worst times, and remember at the most frustrating!

4. Her complete lack of ego or pride when it comes to retreating from something too dangerous.

  • Often without telling us and leaving us behind to face the danger she just ran from on our own!

5. Her intelligence which is shown as she effortlessly navigates her way through puzzles and traps.

  • Almost always without giving us the courtesy of a warning or lifting a finger to help!

6. Her dedication to continue onward even when she's exhausted or injured, often without even healing herself!

  • You might as well admire a horse running themselves into the ground! Hiro what's there to admire about letting yourself bleed to death when you have healing magic?

7. Her forthrightness when it comes to pursuing information.

  • How is her way of walking up to random people in town and demanding to know the way back to Lunar admirable!? We're trying to keep a low profile remember? Hiro!

8. "The adorable way she can take everything everyone says so literally."

  • The fact that this girl is a threat to me at all fills me with rage and shame beyond imagining.

9. Her scholarly interest in old stories and tales of the Blue Star.

  • It was smut Hiro! Smut from a bygone era that should have stayed buried! Smut that she valued above all of us I might add!

10. Her lovely hair of the most wonderful shade of blue, the way the look in her lovely green eyes can change from heartfelt sorrow to passionate in an instant, her perfect nose, the cute little curve of her ears, her ecclectic fashion sense that perfectly complements her hair with red and black, the sound of her voice when she casts a spell, or says anything at all for that matter-"

  • Hey Hiro you've got a little something on your chin. Let me wipe it off for you...

The Vile Fiends

Jean - Jean's got a good head on her shoulders, and battle prowess I can only dream about! We've started training together, and oof- it's going to lead to a lot of sore days. I can barely land a hit on her. I just wish she didn't take so much pleasure in teasing me, but people tease because they care right? Still- I get this impression she doesn't think so much of herself and doesn't want to talk about it. I wonder what happened?

  • Jean's the best. I would light a man on fire for Jean. Or dozens- why stop with just one?

Lemina Ausa - Lemina is well... one of a kind? She's a lot of fun to be around and she really knows her stuff about magic. I kind of wonder why she's so obsessed with restoring the magic guild of Vane, but obviously she cares a lot about it. And I'm hoping she can teach me a thing or too about my magic. Ruby's kind of sore at her about trapping us on the Blue Star but to me it's been a pretty grand adventure so far? The Blue Star! This is the kind of thing I could only dream of as a kid.

  • Obviously blind since she implemented a rule not allowing cats into her Magic Guild the moment I expressed interest when I'm a majestic Red Dragon- and a total scam artist! Trapped us on the Blue Star on an inane carpet ride that was supposed to just get us down a cliff. Even so she still ranks higher than Ronfar.

Ronfar - Ronfar may be kind of a scoundrel, but he has a bigger heart than he lets on. He saved Lucia after all, he defied his former best friend Leo. He seems to really be hurting over some past failure that led him to leave the Church of Althena. His incredible healing skills are always a great asset, doing anything from regular healing to breaking a dark curse that could disable Lucia! Hiro thinks a lot of him, and looks up to him, he just wishes that he'd lay off the lecher act.

  • I've decided to list just Ronfar's positive qualities to save time... he's very flammable.

Ruby - Ruby is wonderful. The best adventuring assistant a guy could ask for. We grew up together and she's my best friend in every way that matters. Maybe we don't always get along, but we care about each other in the way that matters right?

  • Hiro I'm not your adventuring assistant, I'm your girlfriend! And another way to phrase not always getting along is 'fighting like an old married couple' which by the way- if you're proposing; well I'd give it the proper consideration! Even if you couldn't get almost anything right, the rest of it was surprisingly sweet you big dummy.

Gwyn - Grandpa Gwyn brought me up right and taught me everything I know about old legends, and navigating ancient ruins. I owe him everything and more. I just hope he's doing alright back on Lunar...

  • I'm gonna miss the old codger a lot. His taste in fish was A+.

Other Friends and Allies

Zed - Zed's a great guy. He'd barely met Lucia and already leapt to her defense. And he's a pretty fun rival! I think I could learn a lot from sticking with him. ... I just hope he never brings up Steam Drills again.

  • Hiro please I'm begging you, get clear of this doofus before he gets you and all of us killed!

Kalve - Doesn't say much, but he's got a great poncho and immediately stepped up to defend Lucia. That shield he gave me was great! Probably saved my life, but I wonder why it vanished like that?

  • Terrible taste in clothes and friends. Still he saved Hiro's bacon out there. That gets him high marks in my book.

Virginia Maxwell - Virginia is a great girl and I actually feel pretty bad about getting her caught up in our troubles with the Church of Althena; but she's so kindly offered to help us out despite barely knowing us. I think the world of her.

  • I'll never forget the way she set an angry mob on fire while drunk- hilarious! Also she believed I was a Red Dragon from the start. Calling it now, this girl will go far.

Maya Schrodinger - Maya is a pretty interesting character! I'm not entirely sure what to really think of her yet but she's still pretty friendly. She has trouble believing our story, but I can hardly blame her for that. She sort of gives off the impression that she looks out for number one, and can handle herself well enough that I believe it; yet at the same time she seems to really look out for Virginia.

  • Kind of a scoundrel, and kind of not? Maya seems like a girl of a lot of contradictions. Maybe she'll sell us out, but only if she decides there's glory in it. Gonna keep a close eye on her...

Acquaintances

Talise Gianfair - Tal is great! She's a great adventuring partner who really knows her way around ancient ruins. She's definitely from our world and I need to follow up and have a chat with her on that...

  • Strong. Reliable. Immediately thought that me being a Red Dragon was the coolest thing. For once Hiro you're definitely right, Tal's great!

Sephilia Lampbright - Sephy's an interesting girl, and a good hand to have with you on an adventure! I'm not really sure what to make about Foxey- uh Lord Chauncey though. He's cute but he can grow to enormous size and decimate creatures with his giant claws? Yikes! Still it's good to know he's looking out for her! I hope we can help her get back home someday...

  • You know before I asked myself if she should really be playing with dolls at her age, until I saw Chauncey get serious and tear apart giant rats! How did she get a doll like that?

Marguerite Fatima - Margie's a fun girl to be around, but she can be surprisingly serious too when it comes to matters of faith. The look in her eyes when I discussed our world and our mission... I had to reassure her that even the goddess Althena needs people to help her out.

  • The clingiest girl I have ever known. Though it's not like I totally hated it or anything.

Ida Everstead-Rey - She seemed really knowledgeable. Wish I could have gotten to know her better. I'm pretty grateful for her distracting Ruby a little when Zed brought up Steam Drills, but what were they talking about?

  • Metal Dragon Graveyard? Sounds like a scrapyard for the Destiny. Still... worth following up on.

Lily Keil - Didn't really get to know Lily that well, but she really came through for us in the ruins of Sult!

  • A+ fire control.

Leon Albus - Pretty military! I wonder what he was having Lily write in that book. I'd like to get a better look at his gun one of these days...

  • Seemed a little stiff. And desperate, I mean he responded to Lucia's request like he really needed to get out of town pronto.


Enemies

Leo - White Knight Leo is sort of our primary nemesis, but he's also a pretty good guy. I just wish he wasn't so stubborn that I could actually convince him that Lucia isn't the Lord of Calamity. I'm sure she's not! Did he actually follow us to the Blue Star!? How?

  • The most sanctimonious jerk ever! IF I SEE ONE MORE POSTER DECLARING HIRO TO BE LUCIA'S CONSORT I AM GOING TO FIND YOU AND SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT BY GIVING YOU THE WORST HOTFOOT YOU'VE EVER HAD!

Amelia Rose - Seemed like a pretty swell person to get to know. Too bad she's almost as zealous as Leo about coming after us... Silver is a great dog though! Who's a good boy? Who's a good boy!

  • Another member of Althena's Guard who just won't let us have a moment's peace. There I was just minding my own business- about to order the fish special when she comes waltzing in and starting trouble. And she has the gall to blame us for what happened? Ugh! Also stop looking at me like that you flea-bitten mongrel!

Skylr Paer - I really... don't know anything about her. An archer in Althena's Guard? I was too busy trying to hold off Sorey to really get a sense of who she is.

  • Some kind of Shepherd? No not the legendary kind, I just heard her talking about raising sheep in the middle of a fight? What the heck? What kind of people are Althena's Guard recruiting!? I don't want to see what she can do to Hiro if she lines up a clean shot on him...

Sorey - Sorey is really the legendary Shepherd? I- look- even a legend can be wrong. He's a good guy and all but I won't take a chance on him hurting Lucia. If he tries again, I'll stop him... somehow.

  • He's definitely the Shepherd. Those had to be Seraphim leaping out of him. Hiro doesn't like to talk about it, but it really upsets him that the Shepherd is opposing Lucia. We used to play games all the time where he'd pretend to be the Dragonmaster or the Shepherd. Hiro please... be careful around this guy.

Alisha Diphda - It's incredible that one of Hyland's Princesses is on Filgaia! She's everything I'd imagine a Princess to be, strong, dependable, and leads by example. A fantastic warrior too. It's just a shame she totally believes Lucia is the Lord of Calamity. I really don't want to fight her. I hope she's alright, Kalve seemed to do a number on her...

  • My kind of lady, or at least she would be if she wasn't spoiling for a fight with us. Really dangerous.

Lailah - Uh... who?

  • The very picture of a dignified lady, like myself... which explains why she wields fire. Too bad she's directing it at us!

Mikleo - Ruby who are you arguing with?

  • Silverfish is the most frustrating guy- who just so happens to be a Seraph. What kind of idiot Seraph doesn't know a Red Dragon when he sees one though? Obviously he flunked out of Seraph school.

Edna - Zed why are you training to fight invisible people?

  • Best, seraph, ever. I really like her style. Just back off from fighting us and we'll get along just fine!
