The quirky guide, like a moogle.

The goddess that gives out quests :D

the evil sorceress and works for a greater evil

the anti-hero main character... that or the villan... depends on the sequel...

The cool secondary character that the main aspires to be, or like a tutorial guide in the beginning that ends up dying a horrible, but epic death that the hero bases his vengeance on.

definitely the npc that teaches the hero the skills used throughout the rest of the game.

the sneeky messenger assassin that works for the villan but knowssssss thiiinngggsss

Son of the Evil Villain who doesn't really like the way he dresses, but does it anyway.

The rival of the hero. He is a powerful mage whereas the hero wields a sword and they constantly try to prove who is better. In the end, they join forces to defeat the evil.

The hero at the end of the game, all powered up and epic.

cutscene npc

A cool bad-ass feral gunner who has a gambling problem.

cheep fighting character that draws pervs into the fighting genre, made to play easy, look awesome, and cause disbelief when they find out that the gender is neutral.

Oh Bridget ~ i'd like a word with you~

A battle mage.

A quirky antagonist. Similar to Jester from DMC3 or Kefka. You just seem more like a jester than a mage.

the mysterous helper that turns out to be a bad guy in diguise.
