• Lady Roberta

Roberta is a blue Acara and niece of King Hagan of Brightvale, being groomed into a diplomat but she is secretly training to be a sorceress under the tutelage of her mentor Seradar. On a mission to Faerieland, she tells Queen Fyora of the purple clouds above Meridell but things take a turn for the worse when the Darkest Faerie attacks. Roberta saves an old woman whom she helped earlier and in return she gave Roberta a mysterious amulet and instructs her to find the amulet's twin as the one who has it can help her (Tor). She meets Tor and they partner together to stop the evil of the Darkest Faerie.

• The Darkest Faerie

The main antagonist of the game, the Darkest Faerie was once one of the Twelve Heroes of Altador, but she turned on her comrades and imprisoned the city in a bubble of slow time, completely cutting it off from the world. In a battle against Queen Fyora, and with the use of a magical artifact, the Darkest Faerie was turned to stone and imprisoned at the bottom of the Maraquan Sea. But time passed and the artifact keeping her stone decayed and she broke free, intending to leave her terrible mark on Neopian History by destroying two kingdoms at once. She was eventually stopped by the combined efforts of Sir Tormund, Knight of Meridell, and Lady Roberta, Sorceress of Brightvale, and again turned to stone and placed on a fountain to be monitored.

• Queen Fyora

The Queen of Faeries and Ruler of Faerieland, Fyroa is beautiful, wise, and pure. It is to her Roberta and Seradar go for advice in concern of the kingdom Meridell, but she is captured by the Darkest Faerie. It is later revealed that Fyora battled the Darkest Faerie a thousand years ago after she imprisoned the kingdom of Altador on an isolated plane of existence. Thanks to Jerdana's Orb, given to her by the sorceress Jerdana, and with the use of her wand, she stopped the Dark one's advance, turned her to stone and imprisoned her at the bottom of the Maraquan Sea. When Tor and Roberta go to her rescue after recovering the Queen's wand they are tricked by the Darkest Faerie into giving it to her, but Fyora frees herself and buys the heroes time to make it to Altador before she is sealed into a bottle. When the Darkest Faerie is stopped, Tor frees Fyora and she uses her wand to thwart the Darkest Faerie's plans. Fyora then promises the Darkest Faerie will be monitored at all times (she displayed her on a fountain in the courtyard).

• King Altador aka the Mysterious Knight

Altador is the leader of the Twelve Heroes of old who founded the kingdom of Altador. Altador appears several times throughout the course of the game, advising Tor and encouraging him. He finally reveals his true identity to Tor and Roberta when they end up in his lost kingdom. When Tor and Roberta free the kingdom of the Darkest Faerie's power, he gives his sword to Tor as a token of his respect and faith that he will defeat the Darkest Faerie.

• Jerdana aka the Old Woman

Jerdana is the old woman who gave Roberta her amulet. She is actually one of the Twelve Heroes of Altador, regarded by many as the greatest Soreceress ever to live in Neopia. Jerdana was also the one who chose Tor to hold the first amulet but sent Kelland the Thief to test the young lupe. When she is freed, Jerdana uses her power to banish away the Darkest Faerie's curse and gives the two heroes the tool they need to defeat her; a magical artifact called Jerdana's Orb.

• Kelland the Quick aka Kell the Beggar

Kelland the Quick is one of the Twelve Heroes of Altador and is actually the one who convinced the others to allow the Darkest Faerie to join them. He appeared to Tor as a beggar, on orders of Jerdana, to test the young lupe's heart, and gave him a mysterious amulet when he was satisfied.

• Torakar aka Master Torak

Torakar is another of the Twelve Heroes. He appeared as one of Meridell's foremost knights and was Tor's sponsor. He trained Tor in combat, both weaponry and magical.

The ruler of Illusen's Glade, Illusen was attacked by her long-time rival, the Werelupe King who stole her charm. She was saved by Tor and Roberta when they returned the charm to her, freeing her of the Darkest Faerie's power, and she gave them a Faerie Globe to enable them to bypass a barrier barring them from Meridell.

• The Assassin

The Assassin is a shady, sleazy character hired by the Darkest Faerie to kill Tor and Roberta. He appeared several times during the game, preferring to prolong the job as he was having too much fun, and to make things harder for the two heroes. He was finally defeated when he tried to steal from them Illusen's Charm. According to some research in the game, the Assassin once had a lover but was driven mad by her death. The Assassin is clearly a dangerous foe and has access to some dark powers.

The King of the Werelupes and long-time rival with Illusen, the Werelupe King attacked Illusen's Glade and stole her Charm. Tor and Roberta defeated him to get it back.
