Whereas Vel's kicks are graceful & swift, Eizen relies on powerful haymakers and stomps. Male Might, Female Finesse: Eizen's the Male Might to Velvet's Female Finesse.Hitchhiker Heroes: Velvet was entirely content to go about her quest all by herself, but she lets the party members join her on her way as long as they prove their worth to her and/or don't impede her progress.None of the heroes use a conventional sword, likely to go along with their status as an Anti-Hero Team opposing the villains who seem heroic to the general populace - three of their five members use a sword as their primary weapon. While Rokurou has a sword he uses for his final Mystic Arte and some other abilities, it's not his primary weapon, as he instead makes ample use of daggers. Heroes Prefer Swords: An averted case, actually, which is a rarity for the genre.Gossip Evolution: Their exploits are frequently exaggerated by the NPCs and in some cases, the description of Velvet as the Lord of Calamity gets mixed up with Magilou's description as a witch.Towards the second half of the game, Velvet herself even says "No matter how selfish you are, life's empty without having someone to share it with". In an optional skit, even Eizen admits he was glad to have been able to draw out a map of the oceans with them. However, they genuinely become friends as the game progresses. Most of them initially stick together either out of self-interest or to uphold promises, rather than out of loyalty or camaraderie. Fire-Forged Friends: More so than any previous Tales party.Embarrassing Nickname: In order to get into Loegres the first time, Magilou convinces the guards that the group is a traveling magic show called "Magilou's Menagerie," something that sticks with them (to Velvet's chagrin).

Magilou was betrayed by her former master Melchior, Laphicet gains his own free will thanks to the party's influence, and Eleanor chose to defy the Abbey after seeing how twisted their ultimate goal was.

Defeat Means Friendship: Velvet has to fight every party member except Magilou at least once before they join.

Laphicet picks up on it, becoming more independent as the story goes on. Eizen is the most outspoken about this, but everyone comes to it eventually.
