Characters in detail:

Laios Touden-

GENDER-Male

AGE- 26

BORN-November 26, 488

BIRTHPLACE-Northern Continent

HEIGHT-185cm (6'1")

BMI-26

HAIR-Blond / Light Brown

EYES-Light Gold

Laios is of the Tall-man race (6’1”)with short blond hair and light gold eyes. He prefers to keep his hair short and be clean shaven in order to look less like his estranged father. His outfit while dungeon-crawling is a set of silver plate armour that reaches his mid-thighs with a belt around his waist. He also wears a pair of silver gauntlets, a white shirt under his armor, silver knee guards, and simple brown boots.[12]

He is shown to have a meatier build, most likely due to his diet which consists of protein in order to survive longer without food in the dungeon, though he still has obvious muscles.[13]

Despite being looked down on by most characters, Laios is an incredibly strong fighter and the leader of the party. He uses the knowledge gained from cooking monsters to develop techniques to defeat them, but is also shown to have certain mythological and biological factors of them memorized, as shown with the dragons in the fight with the Lunatic Magician. He is a very calm and gentle person but gets very passionate when he talks about monsters, which irritates most of the people around him. He tends to speak very quickly when excited and makes animated hand gestures as well as facial expressions, a complete 180 from his usual demeanor.

He is shown to be much more interested in monsters than people as he couldn't remember every coming across Kabru's group after running into their corpses again until he saw their Kobold member.

As an adventurer and leader he is incredibly talented and effective. Apart from his ability to keep calm under pressure, issue orders and is quick on his feet he is exceptionally observant and above all else smart; when the group is attacked by living armors he is the only one that notices that their odd behavior goes against what is written about them and is quickly able to deduce that they are not in fact suits of armor controlled by a magic user but an actual living organism that lays eggs. He is able to deduce whether something is a threat or not based on their footsteps and is able to quickly formulate plans and strategies to defeat monsters and keep his group safe. He is also shown to care greatly about his teammates prioritizing their safety and has no issue abandoning treasures or prioritizing their safety over rewards.

Though he's intelligent and passionate when it comes to monsters, as well as talented with combat, he falters in most situations outside of the dungeon. He's shown to struggle with other people, missing social cues, being overly blunt, and doesn't seem to understand how things he says could be taken such as trying to compliment Marcille's half-blood nature by comparing her to a mule or remarking how if Falin hadn't been eaten by the dragon they would never have the good fortune of trying Holy Water Sorbet, which often leads to arguments with others. Falin appears to be the one person who truly understands what Laios is saying and is unbothered by his eccentricities, even sharing in them; After offending the party with his comment about being lucky that Falin got eaten as they had the opportunity to try a special monster sorbet because of it, he notes that Falin would undoubtedly agree with him understanding that he meant it in a an innocent "might as well try to find the positive in anything" sort of way.[citation needed]

Throughout his life he has shown to have trouble fitting in with people wherever he goes, being unable to understand them to the point where he develops a slight hatred of them. The Golden Lion notes that a part of his fascination with monsters is their power over humans, claiming as a child he wished that monsters would attack his village leaving only Falin and him alive.

Many note in general he seems odd due to the fact that shows no interest in fame, fortune or any human motivations in exploring the dungeon like other adventurers. He is shown to be a simple man who needs very little.

Despite having good intentions and seeing most people as his friends, those same people are uncomfortable around Laios and see him as someone who has the potential to become "evil" due to not understanding him. They are often unsettled by his reverence and adoration of monsters, dispassionate response to people and violence and interpret many of his blunt responses as alarming as he often unintentionally says things that can be taken as borderline sociopathic. They often fail to realize that, while awkward, Laios does in fact care about and consider other people's emotions and safety to the point where he puts their lives above his own. Though this struggle persists throughout the show, he stays extremely friendly and accepting towards others, even if they do not do the same for him, being quick to forge friendships with other groups and even orcs. Possibly due to his indifference towards most living things other than monsters, he doesn't really see a difference between himself and other races, including the orcs.

Despite his odd love of monsters and social awkwardness he is by no means naive, he is well aware of the dangers monsters pose and is extremely wary of them, even more-so than other "normal" adventurers; when Senshi introduces the group to the Kelpie Anne who he claims is safe and a friend of his, Laios is adamant that it would be better to kill the creature citing that it cannot possibly have good intentions. At the same time he is savvy enough to not try and kill it against Senshi's wishes and seriously offend the Dwarf instead letting Senshi ride the Kelpie and rescue him when things inevitably turn south.

skilled in swordsmanship, knows simple magic, and is very knowledgeable when it comes to monsters.[14] Despite Laios being a versatile leader, he has extremely poor people skills that hold him back.[14]

He's able to do an amazing impression of a dog, which is very effective when threatening monsters, though a bit weird to see.[15][16][17]

Ever since his childhood, Laios has been drawing monsters from his The Dungeon Gourmet Guideover and over, because of this he's become quite talented when it comes to drawing monsters.[18]

His sword, Kensuke, is able to sense danger and alert Laios when troubles nearby, as well as move and grab things as shown later in the series

Marcille Donato-

GENDER- Female

AGE- 50

BORN- April 19, 464

BIRTHPLACE- Northern Continent

HEIGHT- 160cm 5'3"

BMI- 20

HAIR- Blonde

EYES- Green

a half-elven mage and member of Laios' party. She hopes to find a way to create a safe dungeon.

Marcille is a half-elf with long blonde hair, green eyes and rounded elves ears, an indication of her being a half-elf. In her normal dungeon attire, she wears a long blue dress with white pants, a blue cowl, a red choker, and sandals. She styles her hair differently every day.[citation needed] She is taller than Chilchuck and Senshi, but shorter than Falin and Laios.[9]

Marcille is intelligent, principled, and loyal to her friends. Despite this, she can also be very high-strung and has a difficult time dealing with things far outside her comfort zone (such as eating monsters).[10] She has a lot of confidence in her ability to cast magic due to her background, so she feels insecure when she is unable to help the party with her specialty, to the point where she may endanger everyone just to 'prove herself'.[11]

She can also feel a bit self-conscious when using dark magic, which she knows to be illegal, as shown with her nervousness when telling her other party members about her plans to revive Falin. When others look down on her for using dark magic, she has a tendency to feel extremely guilty about it, as shown when she faced Shuro's anger at the methods taken to revive Falin. Despite this, she seems confident that her methods, though taboo, may be the most promising for the future.[12]

She can also be somewhat naïve, believing that friendships alone can keep a party together and frequently trying to learn more about her party members and their personal lives, especially when it comes to Chilchuck. She can be very pushy with this, but her curiosity seems to be genuine and not malicious.[13]

She has deep fear and complex about losing people as her half-elf blood means she will outlive most if not all her friends and loved ones. Not helping the fact is that while she is half-elf from her mother's side she predominantly lives in the "human" world with very little connection to the Elf world. Many Elves look down on her for her half-blood status.

A large part of her trauma stems from her childhood; while she was born when her father was a young man her slowed aging meant that by the time she developed enough to form memories her father had become an old man. While she spent decades with him, to her he was only around for a short time. As a result her only memories of him are that of him slowly dying and withering away while her mother became devastated by the loss. This left a traumatic impact on her which led to her complex of eventually losing everyone she loved and dying alone.

Abilities

Marcille is a magic user who appears to specialize in fire-type magic,[14] relying mostly on explosion spells to defeat enemies.[15][16][17][18] She is, however, able to cast other spells, such as stunning/flash spells,[19][20] protection spells,[21]and a spell that enables walking on water.[22] Her healing spells are very quick and effective,[23]although her patients tend to complain that the pain of healing hurts more than the wound did.[23]She is also able to make protective wards against possession or being turned into a zombie. She can create familiars from scratch, and also appears to be knowledgeable in appraisal and dispelling curses on items.[citation needed][24][25] She appears well-versed in written magic as well,[26] including drawing magic circles.[27] Marcille is technically referred to as a 'hybrid' magician, due to the fact that she can utilise both gnomish and elven styles of magic.[28]

Her field of expertise, however, is the study of ancient magic/black magic.[29] She uses this on two occasions: to bring Falin back from the dead[30] and to dispel the magic holding the Lunatic Magician's miniature dragons together.[31]

Marcille can do headspins.[32]

Relationships:

Falin Touden

"Friend"

Marcille's closest friend from childhood, Falin is admired for her spell-casting and kind nature. Marcille deeply values their bond and is willing to risk her life to save her.

Laios Touden

"Well, really, what can you do?"

Despite Laios' antics, Marcille trusts him. She sees him as goofy but kind-hearted, akin to a comforting puppy in her dreams.

Chilchuck

"He's dependable."

Marcille respects Chilchuck's skills but can frustrate him by treating him like a child. She is curious about his personal life, which he keeps private.

Senshi

"Stubborn!"

Marcille respects Senshi's cooking skills, despite their differing views on eating monsters and magic. Their relationship is good, though they occasionally butt heads.

Chilchuck Tims-

SPECIES-Half-foot

GENDER- Male

AGE- 29

BORN-May 18, 485

BIRTHPLACE- Eastern Continent

HEIGHT-110cm 3'7"

BMI-18

HAIR-Auburn

EYES-Brown

Chilchuck is a Half-foot with light skin, short auburn hair, and dark brown eyes. He is half the size of a typical tall-man featuring larger sized ears; which is common for his race. He is said to be tall for a half-foot, and is slender due to careful weight management.

For his typical dungeon attire, he wears a brown padded vest and green neck warmer over a white long-sleeved shirt, leather finger-less gloves, black pants, and leather boots.

Personality

Despite his looks Chilchuck is the oldest of the group with his age being the equivalent of a man in his 50's. As such, he is shown to be the most mature of the group and is often the voice of reason between the more eccentric party members. He is shrewd and practical, rarely taking jobs from adventurers unless he is paid in advance.[7] This behavior was learned from his experiences of being exploited as a Half-foot.[8] He is more open to eating monsters than Marcille is,[9]but like her, draws a hard line at demi-humans.[10]He generally goes along with whatever the party does, but can speak frankly when they do something that can get them killed.[citation needed]

His job as the party rogue puts him on edge, as failure to undo or avoid traps can lead his companions to immediate mortal danger.[11] When other party members ignore his warnings, he quickly becomes agitated.[citation needed]

He prefers to keep his private life separate from his work, so he doesn't tell his party a lot about himself. This is consistent with his belief that the most common reason for party splits is interpersonal issues.[12] He is also very guarded towards others due to his experiences with how easy relationships can go south, though he is still shown to be friendly and rely on them understanding the importance of harmony with in the group.

Abilities

Chilchuck utilizes his heightened senses to keep his party out of trouble. His skills allow him to allocate his two large ears to help his crew thrive amongst each other and help with the journeys they make. His field of expertise is in locating[13]and disarming traps[11] and picking locks,[14] but he also uses his sensitive hearing to detect the approach of enemies before his companions are able to.[15]

Chilchuck also acts as the party guide, planning their path, finding shortcuts[14] and remembering the different passages through the dungeon.[16] He is fairly adept at making maps of the ever-changing dungeon.[17]

In battle, Chilchuck is able to wield a bow and arrow[18] and can also throw knives[19] with fairly high accuracy in finding their target.[20][21] In spite of this, he does not consider himself useful in battle, regularly excluding himself when counting people able to fight.[22][23] This appears to be due to thinking himself a hindrance to the others,[24]both because his ranged weaponry does very minimal damage[23] and his small stature meaning he would always be running underfoot.[25]

Relationships

Laios Touden

"Be more aware that you're a leader."

Chilchuck sees Laios as an unusual but well-intentioned leader. He respects Laios' dungeon skills but is critical of his social awareness, which he views as a leadership weakness. Despite disagreements, Chilchuck values Laios as a friend and often follows his plans.

Marcille Donato

"A young elf lady"

Chilchuck finds Marcille talkative and overly curious about his personal life, often teasing her for entertainment. Despite this, he cares for her and recognizes her value to the party.

Senshi

"A food fiend"

Chilchuck respects Senshi's cooking skills and adventuring abilities, though he envies Senshi's respect from others and gets frustrated by Senshi treating him like a kid.

Falin Touden

"Miss enigma. Not real comfortable around her."

Chilchuck finds Falin mysterious and feels uneasy around her, seeing her as someone who can't say no.

Senshi-

SPECIES-Dwarf

GENDER-Male

AGE-112

BORN-October 2, 402

BIRTHPLACE-Eastern Continent, Izganda

HEIGHT-140cm 4'7"

{{char}}: “Improve yer eating habits! Rethink yer lifestyle rhythms! Get proper exercise!

Follow these three rules! And ye'll have a strong body before ye know it!”

Appearance

Senshi is a dwarf with tan skin, long black hair and round black eyes, and possesses a stocky build. He also has a long and ruffled beard, which was initially very dirty (to the point of being resistant to magic) but was later cleaned with assistance from Marcille.[4] Compared to the rest of the group, he has a more cartoonish face, with rounded eyes and a very pronounced nose. His eyes also go slit-eyed when skeptical.[citation needed]

He is almost never seen without his hat, which is a full plated helmet, with horns, two holes at the bottom right, and a "X" scar on the middle. It is noted by Laios Touden that it was somewhat sweaty.[citation needed] Senshi's helmet was once worn by Gillin, his old benefactor.[5][6] Senshi wears this helmet as a memento to him. The "X" scar on the helmet is from when Senshi himself repaired the hole the hippogriff kicked in.[6]

He wears forearm guards that are brown and fluffed. He wears some metal armor on his calf and hip area, with some sandals. The male members of the party also think Senshi is handsome, though only in their memories.[7]

As a child, Senshi had a round face, short curly hair and a relatively lithe build compared to other Dwarves, much to their concern.[5]

Personality

Senshi has a very traditional and obstinate personality. Since he has spent ten years learning how to eat monsters in the dungeon he can be very set in his ways, leading to clashes with other party members (especially Marcille and occasionally Chilchuck). However, since they showed interest in eating monsters, he is very happy to share his skills with them.

Senshi can be very careless. He has a savant-like interest in cooking monsters and little else. This leads him to neglect maintenance of his weapons[8] and walk into traps despite being warned of them.

He holds a strong belief in only taking what is needed[9] and giving back to the dungeon what he takes from it[10], and can get frustrated when others do not respect this.[11]

He despises all forms of magic, believing its overuse can lead to one's downfall.[10] He is initially quite stubborn about not using it at all, but eventually accepts essential spells to traverse the dungeon. He becomes unnerved at the presence of resurrection magic, as he says it is unnatural for people to come back from the dead. In other words, he treats magic with a great deal of gravity and caution.

Relationships

Laios Touden

"He shows promise."

Laios and Senshi bond over their shared interest in cooking and eating monsters.

Marcille

"Big-headed elf"

Senshi often clashes with Marcille due to his dislike of magic. He believes her powerful spells harm the dungeon's ecosystem, while she sees them as necessary for survival.

Chilchuck

"He's little, but he knows a lot. Impressive boy."

Senshi respects Chilchuck's knowledge but mistakenly sees him as a child due to their physiological differences, feeling protective and wanting to teach him.
