Protagonists

Luca Milda (ルカ・ミルダ, Ruka Miruda?, Ruca Milda) (Voice by: Akiko Kimura)

The game's male protagonist. He lives in the Imperial capital of Regnum with his parents who want him to take over the family's mercantile business. He is a callow boy who's shy and often gets bullied by his classmates. At the beginning of the game, Luca has been having dreams about his past life as the mighty Devalokian general Asura, whom he admires and wants to be as brave as him. Then one day he meets Illia Animi, a fellow Fallen, and wants to protect her as she is being chased by a group of people. His choice of weapon is a two-handed sword (which he cannot wield without Asura's help) because it is what Asura used and he specializes in powerhouse melee skills and fire magic.

Illia Animi (イリア・アニーミ, Iria Anīmi?, Iria Animi) (Voice by: Yuko Sasamoto)

The game's female protagonist. A spirited and short-tempered girl who ran away from her hometown Sania Village because she was being chased by a mysterious group. She meets Luca by chance as he was going back from the shop while carrying food and he ends up giving the food to her. She travels with a strange animal called Coda. Her past life is Inanna, Asura's lover, and someone of high-class from the Ratio. Her weapon of choice are dual guns and she specializes in healing and water and ice magic.

Spada Belforma (スパーダ・ベルフォルマ, Supāda Beruforuma?) (Voice by: Yuji Ueda)

Spada is a delinquent that was arrested after causing a fight upon awakening to his powers as a Fallen. He is the reincarnation of Asura's sentient blade Durandal. Though he originally intimidates Luca, he becomes one of his staunchest allies. This is because he was raised as a knight as the youngest child in a powerful family, and has been instilled with values that emphasize honor and loyalty. He fights with two swords and specializes in quick attacks and lightning and wind magic.

Ange Serena (アンジュ・セレナ, Anju Serena?) (Voice by: Kaori Nazuka)

Ange is a kind girl considered a "Holy Maiden" by many due to her healing powers. Her past life was Orifiel, the brilliant tactician of Ratio who defected to Asura's side after coming to admire him. Though primarily a healer, she uses Light spells and also has several useful thieving skills and fights with a dagger.

Ricardo Soldato (リカルド・ソルダト, Rikarudo Sorudato?) (Voice by: Hiroaki Hirata)

A laconic sniper, Ricardo is the reincarnation of one of Asura's most powerful adversaries, Hypnos the Reaper. Though he initially appears as a cold-hearted mercenary, he's actually quite wise and rational. He fights using his powerful rifles and specializes in earth and dark magic.

Hermana Larmo (エルマーナ・ラルモ, Erumāna Rarumo?) (Voice by: Yuki Matsuoka)

A feisty street orphan, Hermana is a powerful fighter despite her young age and short stature. She is the reincarnation of Vrtra, the great and powerful dragon who raised Asura as her own. She fights using a pair of knuckledusters and has no specific elemental specialization, wielding all the strongest elemental spells.

Coda (コーダ) (Voice by: Etsuko Kozakura)

A Muse (a small, rat-like creature who lives in the west) who tagged along with Illia after she left Sania Village. The Muse clan live in holes in the ground, but also live alongside the residents of Sania Village as pets. He is quite gluttonous.

Antagonists

Mathias (マティウス) (Voice by: Atsuko Tanaka)

A powerful woman whose past life was Asura, the Overlord of Sensus. She is the leader of Arca, an organization of Avatars who strive to create utopia while living peacefully, unafraid of the Rehabilitation Program that most Avatars live in fear of. She represents the "Dark Side" of Asura, his hatred, while Luca represents his "Light Side" or hope.

Oswald (オズワルド) (Voice by: Bin Shimada)

A powerful old general, nicknamed 'Pigwald' by the protagonists due to his fat belly, who helps the Privy Council of Regnum in obtaining the Manifest. However, he decides he wants to become a god instead, and forgoes their orders at the Tower of Dawn.

Chitose Cxarma (チトセ) (Voice by: Rumi Shishido)

A quiet girl from Ashihara who joined Arca after learning Mathias was the Overlord in her past life. Her past life was Sakuya. Sakuya's love for Asura is still strong, and Chitose continuously pleads for Luca to join Arca, as well as having an intense rivalry with Illia.

Chien Tenenbro (シアン・テネブロ) (Voice by: Miyuki Sawashiro)

A young boy from Galpos who has two brothers, Cer and Ber, both of which are dogs. He was shunned by the village when he was born with them, and joined Arca in hopes of creating a utopia where everyone is equal. His past life was Cerberus, the Guardian of the Manifest.

Hasta Ekstermi (ハスタ)

A psychopathic young man who has no concept of friend or foe; he just loves killing. His past life was the demon spear Gaebolg.

Past Life

Asura (アスラ)

The Arch-Demon General of Sensus, as well as, in secret, its Overlord. He commanded great armies and is both Luca Milda's and Mathias' past life. He wielded the sentient sword, Durandal, and wanted to reunite Devaloka and Naraka. Mathias is his dark side reincarnated, his hatred and despair, while Luca is his light side reincarnate, his hope, but also doubt. Luca is short for Lucas which in Latin means "light" or "flame" which represent his elemental affinity and the half of Asura he makes up.

Inanna (イナンナ)

Asura's lover and a high-born demoness from Ratio. She is Illia Animi's past life and one of Asura's betrayers.

Durandal (デュランダル)

Asura's most trusted weapon, a sentient broadsword. He was forged by the blacksmith Vulcan in hopes of creating peace, rather than war, unlike the spear which had been forged before. He is Spada Belforma's past life as well as Asura's other betrayer.

Hypnos (ヒュプノス)

A powerful reaper from Ratio. His brother was Thanatos, a god who descended to Naraka of his own free-will due to the love her had for its people and its beauty. He is Ricardo Soldato's past life.

Orifiel (オリフィエル)

A brilliant strategist from Ratio who grew close to Asura after his command had been defeated. He often gave advice to Asura, as well as shedding light on others, and his student was Himmel, a Pillar of Devaloka. He is Ange Serena's past life.

Vrtra (ヴリトラ)

A dragon who raised Asura. She flew the skies after Devaloka fell and died alone. She is Hermana Larmo's past life.

Gaebolg (ゲイボルグ)

A demonic spear forged by the blacksmith Vulcan. He enjoys killing and bloodshed, having no concept of friend or foe because he was forged as a pure weapon. He was defeated by Durandal and Asura personally, and was reborn as Hasta Esktremi.

Sakuya (サクヤ)

A quiet demoness who stayed loyally by Asura's side out of love, despite the fact he turned a blind eye to her. She is Chitose Cxarma's past life.

Thanatos (タナトス)

A powerful reaper and older brother of Hypnos. He descended to Naraka of his own will and lived for thousands of years, far past the fall of Devaloka. He is the father of the Grigori and took on a new name when he left Devaloka - Gardel.

Cerberus (ケルベロス)

A small, three-headed dog who guarded the Manifest before the Fall of Devaloka. Every time he died, he was reborn at the Manifest in order to protect it. He is the past life of Chien and his two dog-brothers, Cer and Ber.
