Dragon Fable/Characters

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Characters of Dragon Fable. Here be spoilers.

Main Characters

The Hero of DragonFable

The player character.

Tropes:

The Hero's Dragon

One of two dragons that hatch from the eggs in the White and Black Dragon Boxes -- the dragon from the Black Dragon Box is destined to destroy a world, while the dragon from the White Dragon Box is destined to save the world. Due to a mix-up, Sepulchure and The Hero end up with the wrong dragons. Their attempts to Screw Destiny are foiled by a Prophecy Twist -- The Hero's Dragon destroys the planet-sized Super Mega Ultra Darkness Dracolich while the other dragon sacrifices itself to save the world from it.

Tropes:

Party Members

Aquella

The last Water Elf (or so she thinks). She plays an important role in the Water Orb saga.

Tropes:

Aquella: Another surface dweller? Can't you stay on land? Why do you have to keep invading my home?

Aria

A little girl whose grandmother runs the Falconreach pet shop. She is introduced in a quest where The Hero rescues her from a cave full of Big Creepy-Crawlies (including a Giant Spider that Aria wanted to keep as a pet). She takes over the pet shop after Grams is revealed to have been replaced by a spy.

Tropes:

Artix von Krieger

A paladin with an uncontrollable compulsion to slay the undead. Prone to making groan-worthy puns.

Tropes:

Ash Dragonblade

A young inhabitant of Falconreach who dreams of saving a princess and becoming a knight. In the main DragonFable storyline, he's a Sidekick to The Hero. In ArchKnight, he is The Hero.

Tropes:

Galanoth

A Dragonslayer and an ally of The Hero. Despite his hatred of dragons, he accepts that The Hero is a DragonLord at the end of the Ice Orb saga. The fact that he seemingly hadn't noticed The Hero's Dragon up until that point is Hand Waved by him claiming he thought the dragon was a horribly deformed dog.

Tropes:

Robina the Hood

In her own words; "Robina the Hood at your service. Steal from the rich, give to the.... cute little cuddly wuddly forest creatures!" Well, that explains how those monsters got all that gold.

Rolith

Captain of the Knights of the Pactogonal Table. Loves tormenting The Hero with his insanely difficult Code Monkey Challenges.

Tropes:

Sir Ano

A recently knighted Pactogonal Knight who asks The Hero to help him live up to his family's reputation.

Sir Ano: I come from a long and illustrious lineage, a clan of uncommon Knights. You may have heard of my great-grandfather, Sir Ano the Second.

Tomix

A SoulWeaver and The Protagonist of the Ravenloss saga.

Tropes:

Tomix: He is my closest friend, my SoulAlly. Without him, I would be lost.

Valencia Surehunter

A rare item hunter who took over the "family business" after her father went missing in search of "The Ultimate Treasure". She is eventually reunited with her father, but he turns out to be a villain.

Tropes:

Warlic

The Blue Mage is one of the most powerful NPCs in the game. In fact, he's so powerful that he rarely interferes in anything because he can't risk his power getting out of control. Has a rivalry with Xan that goes way, way back. He dies in Nythera's first quest chain, but later comes back from the dead to save her from her own mistakes.

Zhoom

A Ranger and an ally of The Hero. He initially works for Sek-Duat XV, but switches sides after being told that Sek-Duat XV doesn't intend to pay him.

En and Tropy

Two servants of Sepulchure. In the Willowshire quest chain, they fuse with Gorgok and become Entropy Dragon.

Tropes:

Fluffy

One of two dragons that hatch from the eggs in the White and Black Dragon Boxes -- the dragon from the Black Dragon Box is destined to destroy a world, while the dragon from the White Dragon Box is destined to save the world.

Their attempts to Screw Destiny are foiled by a Prophecy Twist -- The Hero's Dragon destroys the planet-sized Super Mega Ultra Darkness Dracolich while Fluffy sacrifices itself to save the world.

The dragon who burns down Drakonnan's village and kills his family, making him responsible for Drakonnan's Start of Darkness.

Tropes:

Baron Au'Mydas Bayconn

The villain of the 2010 and 2012 Lucky Day wars. Formerly King Alteon's Royal Treasurer, until he was given the ability to turn anything he kissed into gold and promptly went over to the dark side.

Captain Davey

A villain in the Water Orb saga.

Tropes:

Dragonmaster Frostscythe

The villain behind the Ice Dragon War. His ultimate goal is to steal a Dragon Amulet and become a DragonLord.

Tropes:

  • Animal Motifs: The Dragon.
  • Evil Former Friend: To Vilmor.
  • Freudian Excuse: Frostscythe claims that he was driven to evil because no Ice Dragon would bond with him, supposedly due to him being half Ice Elf. The Hero blows the excuse out of the water by saying that the problem isn't his blood -- it's his personality since he wants to control dragons rather than cooperate with them.
  • Green-Eyed Monster: Frostscythe framed Vilmor for his crimes because he was jealous of her talent as a DragonLord and her bond with the mightiest of the Ice Dragons.
  • Half-Human Hybrid: He's half Ice Elf.
  • Sinister Scythe

Drakonnan

The Big Bad of the Fire War. He starts off as Yulgar's apprentice, then goes down the path to evil after The Hero tries and fails to save his village and family from the evil dragon Akriloth. This attracts the attention of the evil pyromancer Xan, who further poisons his mind against the forces of good. Drakonnan soon becomes one of the most monstrous foes Lore has ever had to face.

The Anthropomorphic Personification of Lust. She doesn't show up until the very end of the Ravenloss saga, implying that the storyline isn't quite finished yet.

Tropes:

The Necromantress/Lady Vayle

Noxus's best student, who grew up in the same village as Artix before a mysterious green mist turned everyone in the village into zombies. Vayle became the Necromantress after Noxus tricked her into thinking it was possible to bring her brother back from the dead. She briefly joins The Hero's party to defeat Noxus, then disappears, taking the Darkness Orb (which she has merged with) with her. Tomix later separates her soul from the Darkness Orb.

Queen of the Ice Elves and Big Bad of the Ice Orb saga. She's actually a dragon pretending to be an Ice Elf to further her goal of overthrowing humans and putting dragons in charge.

Cysero

The Mad Weaponsmith of Falconreach (and Warlic's roommate). Pretty much the polar opposite of Knight of Cerebus; when he shows up you know things are about to get silly. His store (Cysero's Superstore of Savings) sells items that can only be bought with Dragon Coins.

The Doomkitten

A monster Warlic summons in the Dragon Egg quest chain in order to find out which of the The Hero's eggs is the real dragon egg. After it picks out the dragon egg, The Hero has to fight it so it won't eat the egg.

Tropes:

The Hero: Aw! It's so cute!

The Hero: The DOOMKITTEN?? I want to hug it!

Warlic: Just... just let it pick an egg.

Dr. Voltabolt

A technomancer/dentist who wants to destroy Falconreach (and every other town that "supports the evils of magic"). The Hero can get some pets from Item Farming "Dr. Voltabolt's Challenge".

Tropes:

Grams

Aria's grandmother; the owner of the Falconreach pet shop.

Tropes:

  • Cool Old Lady

Hugo

A background NPC in The Locker (you can find him in the Tempest Inn). In the Water Orb saga, he is revealed to be working for Sepulchure.

Tropes:

King Alteon

He's the king, obviously. Usually hangs out in Swordhaven, but The Hero first meets him in Frostvale.

Tropes:

King Alteon: Interesting. I am often amazed by the unthinkable convenient timing of events in RPGs.

The Hero: What?

King Alton: Hmmm, nevermind that.

One of the first characters The Hero encounters in the game. She is an expert on dragons and dragon magic and helps The Hero train his/her dragon. Sepulchure kills her in the Chapter 1 finale.

A hooded orb that replaces the Mysterious Stranger after the Mysterious Stranger is revealed to be Sepulchure's master.

Tropes:

Nythera

Warlic's apprentice, a half-dragon who had her dragon magic locked away after she misused it. She is irritated with Warlic for his slowness to teach her his secrets, so she kills him and steals his magic. She then brags about her newfound power and starts a war by invoking the wrath of the Elemental Lords. After Warlic comes Back from the Dead and gets her out of trouble, she becomes his apprentice again and gets some Character Development in a quest chain in which she learns she is destined to save the good Void Dragons (the Creatioux) from the evil Void Dragons (the Decadere).

Tropes:

Oishii

A troll The Hero rescues from Drakonnan's lair at the end of the Fire War.
