  Otherworldly Heroes

• Naofumi Iwatani– The Hero of the Kitchen. Past experience with Bitch has made him dark and cynical. Still a generally nice person. His alcohol constitution is god-tier. Out of the Heroes, he is the only one who has learned the written language, and the only one who doesn’t need a crystal ball for magic. He is also the only one who treated the world as a world and not a game. He has thus learned to manually concoct medicine and scavenge for materials, something the other heroes left to their weapons. His cooking skill makes him an ungodly chef. He unlocked the weapon systems of the other heroes, something they were too stubborn to do. In his old world, he was not killed. The Main Character, by the way. The sin he has unlocked is Wrath (Against the people of the world). After overcoming his Wrath, he unlocked the virtue of Compassion. Itsuki notes that it is possible that he has certain ESP, causing him to be a perpetual Agro.
• Motoyasu Kitamura– The Hero of the Crotch… I mean spear… Same thing, really. A nice person who is easily fooled. He was an idiot who will listen to anything a woman says. His connection to Bitch made him a sort of antagonist, but he was really more of a nuisance. He was a skirt chaser who hit on both Raphtalia and Firo the second he laid eyes on them (well, in Firo’s case, the second he laid eyes on her human form). In his old world, he was stabbed by a yandere for cheating on her. He is the oldest hero. He is now officially broken, and has developed an obsession for Filo Rials. He can now only see women as pigs in the literal sense. He raised tan army of Filo Rials because he couldn’t get Firo’s attention. His sins are Lust (For Firo) and Envy (For Naofumi’s position of being loved by Firo).
• Ren Amagi– The Hero of the Sword. A lone wolf, though he cares for his comrades to some extent, he does not get close to them. He is terrible at team play. He carelessly killed the old Gaelion. In his old world, he failed to save his childhood friend and was instead killed in the process of her rescue. He is the youngest hero. The world he came from was a futuristic one in which Virtual Reality was standard fare. Naofumi once noted that if he crossdressed, no one would suspect he was male. After his companions die, he fell into despair, and thus he followed Bitch when she offered kind words to him. After being abandoned by her, he had a brief stint as a bandit, after which he came under Female Knight’s tutelage. His sins are Greed (For Power) and Gluttony (For Power).
• Itsuki Kawasumi(Perfect Hidden Justice)– The Hero of the Bow. Rumored to be the strongest Hero. He has a messiah complex, and is pretty much a justice maniac. He vanquishes (So called) evildoers without thinking of the consequences of his actions. However, this is just because he is immature. He doesn’t actually have any bad intentions. In his old world, he was killed when a large truck took a sudden left turn (In Japan, you drive on the left side of the road, so a left turn can be unforeseen). Though Naofumi thought he came from a normal world, he comes from a futuristic one with 30TB Harddrives, and ESPers. His ESP is Accuracy, which increases his concentration and accuracy. Due to the events of the Justice Rebellion, he is currently broken, in that he will agree to whatever anyone asks him to do. He is under Rishia’s care at Naofumi’s village. His curse has mostly healed, but he’s still faithful to the village for unknown reasons.

Seven Star Heroes

• Alps (Real Name Fohl)– The Hero of the Gauntlet. A Hakuko (White Tiger) demi-human who cared for nothing but protecting his sister. Upon her loss, he swore to treat everyone around him as dearly as he treated her. He now is friendly to Naofumi, because he’s the one his sister loved
• Trash (Former AultClay Melromarc XXXII)– The Hero of the Cane, and former wise king of Melromarc. Clearly, his rationality has decreased with years. He hates the Shield Hero because he fought a war with Siltwelt, a country that worships him. As punishment for his discrimination against Naofumi, his name has been left in its current state and he has been demoted. He is of Faubley royalty, and he left for Melromark, because he couldn’t stand their lenient policy towards Demi-Humans. His parents were killed by members of the Hakukos, and no one stepped forward to take any action against them. So he fought, and fought, and eventually came to be known as the enemy of the entire Hakuko Race. But his beloved sister went missing by Hakuko hands, and he never saw her again. He’s most likely Atlas and Fohl’s uncle. The Name AultClay comes with the title of King. His original name was Luge Lancarose.
• Rishia Ivyred– The Hero of the Projectile. The daughter of a fallen noble. She was at the bottom of the pecking order, but stayed with Itsuki because she felt in debt to him. Naofumi recruited her after she was abandoned by the bow due to the similarities in their situations. She is a Jack of all Trades, and can cast Magic, Heal and use a sword. This quality also extends to her magic, and she can control most magic attributes to some extent. While this means that she cannot get very powerful in a specific element, she can use complex synthesis spells. She has also begin training in Hengen Musou, and has been called a genius by her teacher. After acquiring the penguin plushy, she has gotten herself into cosplay, and currently wears the Filo Rial suit into battle.
• Midori– The Hero of the Axe. A Filo Rial King who was among the first three Motoyasu bought. He is green in color, hence his name. In battle, he fights in human form, swinging around his axe. He can also use poison, and control the decay of objects. Despite his gender, he’s gunning for Motoyasu’s D.
• Taniko (Real name Wyndia)– The Hero of the Whip, though she doesn’t want to be. A girl who is good at raising monsters. Abandoned as a child, she was raised by Gaelion. But crazy things happen on the mountain, and it was up to Gaelion to protect her new home. After Gaelion died, she was captured and sold off as a slave. Through a turn of luck, she ended up at Naofumi’s village.
  The reason she is called Valley girl is because of this movie scene :

  

• Raphtalia– The Hero of the Hammer. A Tanuki Demi-human. Naofumi picked her up when she was a slave and pretty much raised her. She want’s Naofumi to look at her as an adult. Her real age is around 10 but she looks around 20 as Demi-humans age as they level. She uses a sword and illusion (Light and Dark) magic, but has begun to be able to use a wider variety of magic types after the Class Up. Under the tutelage of the Melromark Court Magician, she studied magic, and learned Hengen Musou from the combat instructor.
• Firo– The Hero of the Claw. A Filo Rial Queen. Naofumi bought her egg from the same slave trader that he got Raphtalia from. She is an incredibly rare species, with the only other known Queen being the one that leads all Filo Rials, Fitoria and the Filo Rials raised by Motoyasu. Perhaps all Filo Rials raised by heroes become royalty. The author has personally likened her to the Angel/Fallen Angel/Arch Angel/Giant Mecha Robot Flonne from Disgaea in looks. Her age in months can be counted on two hands. She attacks with Kicks and can use some types of magic. She dreams to one day be able to spit poison. When Naofumi went insane, he granted her the ability to fly.
• Fitoria– The Hero of the carriage, and a damn fine carriage it is. I mean look at that thing. How could any Filo Rial resist the urge to pull that carriage. She’s a Filo Rial Queen, and despite her ability to use human speech, she refrains from doing so due to a vow with a Hero of the past.

Other Heroes

• Glass– The Hero of the Fan. Not a Hero of this world. She is a spirit from the world connected through the wave. She was able to defeat the Sword, Lance and Bow single-handedly, but lost to Naofumi. 
• Tact – The Hero of the Whip, Claw, Projectile, Axe, Hammer, Cane(For like 5 minutes), Gauntlets(even less time), and Shield (?). A Super Genius(Lol) native to this world. He accomplished feats befitting of a genius, and learned how to take control of other legendary weapons. An antagonist, who the other heroes suspect to be a reincarnated individual from a modern world. After instigating a rebellion against the order of the World, he was defeated, and executed.

  • Other Filo Rials– The man has his own army, and they’re all of Filo Rial royalty. These guys also try to get Naofumi’s attention, as getting Motoyasu’s is way too easy. Note, Motoyasu has not done this and that or even THAT to them, because he treats them as children.
