The ghost of a beautiful maiden whose now a crazy bitch popping in and out of the story line until near the end of the game where you fight her. She's actually a good soul but is under control of the main antagonist. The whole time, in her own insane evil way, she has been leading you to the very moment of her death and that of her "master".

He plays the part of the bard.

The final secret character that's easily missed because you forgot to talk to that one innocuous character in the first town.

EDIT Chasm beat me to it xD ..But it fits too ;p

The damsel in distress.

@Serra: Well I like that one :D

@Chasm: The somewhat rough around the edges personality kind of girl who joins your party for her own ambition realzing you really do need some help. Though because she is hard to use at first players tend to not use her and her unique abilities.

The blue mage who is the main focus of the story, but decided half way through to go wandering off on his own and gets captured making the damsel in distress and the rough aroung the edges personality person to go save his ass. =P

I like that, but I am not rought around the edge's I just have meany personalitys.

A weak looking summoner character who specializes in summoning bats, but pays off at the end with a mighty vampire summon at high levels :3

A girl whose soul changed places with a cat, due to curse. She must regain it before darkness consumes all of her human body.
(Sorry, it's cause of the mouth. xD)

Sadrain would be the person who lurks in the darkness, waiting for you to come, then attacks. 8D

Leader of the mini-boss squad that you fight half a dozen times throughout the game.

A mage who controls your dreams, and leads you further in the game.

A mysterious woman who will read your dark, miserable fortune for a very unreasonable fee...but you must do it to progress the storyline.

Warrior-mage from a mysterious winged race thought extinct who joins you near the end of the game.

A NINJA, SEEING HOW YOU SNIPPED MY POST.
lol, jk. xD

A major boss that after you beat, it says defeated you,
and sends you off somewhere to continue the game.
You fight them again later.

The main female character who is captured by the evil side, but just about defeats them when the hero shows up to save her.

A Queen's Seer who helps to find the hero and guide them in the adventure, but in the end, ends up the one behind Masterplan, even though Seers are bleived to be only shells that speak the words of Gods.
