- Main:

Arslan

Age: 11, 14 (post time-skip)

Birthday: May 23

Arslan is the prince of Pars, but is frequently misinterpreted by those around him as being a weakling, because of his effete appearance, naivete, compassion, and optimism. While these are true to a point, Arslan is also philosophical, intelligent, and charismatic, able to rally even the most apathetic of people to his cause. He is dedicated to his friends, especially Daryun, at one time threatening to kill an ally who had got Daryun into a particularly nasty situation.

Spoiler:

It is later revealed that he is not of royal blood at all and, in fact, is a son of a foot soldier and a servant girl and simply was adopted by the Royal family.

Daryun

Formerly a high-ranking military officer, Daryun is demoted from his position in the opening of the anime. His new mission is to protect and serve Arslan. Daryun and Arslan become close friends. In the style of samurai, Daryun is loyal to a fault, and at point tells Arslan that whatever his true origins may be, Daryun regards him as his prince. His fighting skills are so legendary that, at one point, Prince Rajendra praises him as the greatest warrior in both Pars and Shindra.

Alfreed

Narsus saved her from Silver Mask when the latter killed all her companions including her father. In the OVA, her first appearance was when she tried to kill Silver Mask to avenge her father's death but Narsus suddenly arrived and had a 'bet' with Silver Mask that there is a possibility that she could kill him while bidding time and taking advantage of the approaching sand storm for their escape.
