List of Lord Marksman and Vanadis characters

The Lord Marksman and Vanadis light novel series features an extensive cast of characters created by Tsukasa Kawaguchi and illustrated by Yoshi☆o and Hinata Katagiri. The series takes place in an alternate version of Europe, where wars are waged to maintain peace and equality. The protagonist of the series is Tigrevurmud Vorn, a Count from the Brune principality of Alsace who is taken prisoner by Zhcted war maiden Eleonora Viltaria. Tigre, Elen, and their allies interact with various groups and organizations, which some are involved in civil wars.

Creation and development
Author Tsukasa Kawaguchi contributed the concept of a young male archer and a female fighter who uses a sword as the protagonists, which the editorial department of MF Bunko J approved of. At the editorial department's suggestion, Kawaguchi included seven additional fighting girls and called them "war maidens". Kawaguchi wanted to have another weapon from a novel he had previously worked on for Tigre. The Monster Hunter video game franchise gave Kawaguchi the inspiration to develop Tigre's archery skills. Other influences for Tigre included historical archers such as Nasu no Yoichi and Robin Hood.

Kawaguchi cites Record of Lodoss War, Fortune Quest as well as foreign and domestic light novels in writing Lord Marksman and Vanadis. When creating the names of the Vanadis, he used Russian names as he based Zhcted on that country. On deciding a good name for a character, Kawaguchi said that he first decides on a common name, as he feels that it might be hard for readers to understand strange names. After deciding on what the character's name means, Kawaguchi thinks of the name's quality based on if they have an active role.

Before the beginning of the series, Mila becomes a war maiden after her mother dies when she is 14 years old. Unlike most Vanadis who are chosen by the Dragon Gear almost at random, her Dragon Gear has been passed from generation to generation of her family since the time of her great grandmother, which explains her pride as a war maiden.
 * At first, she is antagonistic towards Elen and Tigre because of the alliance between her family and that of Thenardier's. During her duel with Elen in the Tatra Fortress, Tigre saves Mila's life from an assassin sent by Thenardier and she declares her neutrality in the Civil War of Brune. She returns to help Tigre and his army to fend off the invading Muozinel Army. She gets jealous whenever other girls want to steal Tigre away.

She has long blonde hair, beryl (green) colored eyes and a well endowed body, even more than Elen. Called Brilliant Princess of the Light Flower, Sofy dislikes violence and upholds her role to take care of her fellow Vanadis from unwanted conflict. Elen considers her the best Vanadis at politics and information gathering, and has even asked her to seek information out such as which Vanadis have ties with Thenardier and Ganelon, as well as how strong those ties are. This was after Sofy reveals that how siding with Tigre makes her an enemy with Ludmila Lourie, whose family has ties with since her grandmother. She also upholds the principle that the Vanadis should not put emotions ahead of country affairs until Tigre's arrival, which leads her curiosity to deepen after she sees Elen and Mila's odd relationship with him. This especially increases to the point she's questioning her feelings for him after he rides to her rescue under circumstances which should be impossible after being held for a while by Prince Elliott. Of all the Vanadis, Sofy is the sole Vanadis that serves as both warrior and ambassador for Zhcted.

 * Her Dragon Gear is a golden priestess staff named Zaht.

Sofy's Vanadis powers are light-based which can be brighter than sunlight able to blind her enemies who've gotten too close to her when used. Her light power also has healing properties.

While investigating for a way of defeating demons, she comes across the legend of the King of the Magic Marksman and how its path could turn into either a hero, or the Demon King.

Following the Brune Civil War, Valentina joins Ganelon and Greast after Ganelon fakes his death, while she offers them shelter.

 * Her ultimate goal is to become the Queen of Zhcted. She suggests King Viktor to give Tigre the mission of going to Asvarre so she can meet him without any other war maidens around to determine if she could tempt him to become her partner, but Sasha intervenes. The reason of why she has two names comes from the fact that, unlike most war maidens, who were born commoners, she is born an aristocrat; the Estes family descends from the royal family of Zhcted, which means that, although few, she has a chance of ascending to the throne, and is willing to deceive and manipulate the other persons in the line of succession, such as tricking Eugene and Ilda into fighting each other, to increase those chances.
 * While she helps Tigre and Elen win an important victory against the Sachstein Army, her tactics make Tigre, Elen and Lim doubt her reliability and intentions. Despite her intentions of using Tigre, Valentina ends up rescuing Vorn from Ganelon, but remaining uninvolved in his plans.

 * Simon is the leader of a group of mercenaries from Sachstein that were recruited by Tallard. He takes a liking to Tigre and helps him take Fort Lux. He even decides to remain at Tigre's side while facing Elliot's army of 20 thousand, while hoping to get an even greater reward from Ludra.


 * Hamish (ハミッシュ)
 * Hamish is a viscount at Elliot's service, he is one of the very few allies Elliot truly trusts. He leads a force of 400 men that specializes in the use of the Longbow. After he realizes Elliot's army is going to be defeated, he stays behind to try to make sure his Lord escapes, despite knowing that Elliot doesn't seem to care about him. He is killed by Tigre during the climax of the battle between the armies of Elliot and Tallard.


 * Princess Guinivere (ギネヴィア)
 * Guinivere is the younger sister of Germaine and Elliot, A beautiful 20-year-old woman, she declares neutrality in the civil war between her brothers, until she is courted by Tallard and decides to become Queen, with Tallard as de facto King.

Sachstein Kingdom

 * Augusto Benedikt von Rothschild Sachstein (Augesuto Benedeikto von Rodshirudo Zakusadan)
 * Augusto is the current king of Sachstein, known for his stern and expressionless demeanor. Apparently he smiled when he found out about the death of Duke Thenardier at the end of the civil war. After investigating the situation in Brune and about Regin and Tigre, he mobilized his army hoping to annex several territories of western Brune. The betrayal of Asvarre meant the failure of his invasion and the declaration of war between Sachstein and Asvarre.


 * Hans von Klugel (Hansu fon Kuryūgeru)
 * Klugel is one of three top-ranked generals for Sachstein Army. He was ordered by August, the king of Sachstein, to lead an expedition force of 20,000 to invade Brune from the southwest. Born a commoner, he is well liked by his subordinates and he always carries two dices, and depending on the result, he would either move forward with a plan or abort it, and his intuition never failed him, until he clashes with the war maiden. He is manipulated by Tina into believing that Zhcted and Tigre would turn on Brune and he personally leads his troops outside of his fort, where they were ambushed and forced to retreat. He is then killed by Tigre during the final clash of their armies, but before dying he tells two of his subordinates to spread a rumor that Tigre is a traitor throughout Nice.


 * Leonhardt von Schmidt (Reoharudo fuon Syumito)
 * Leonhardt is the second of the top ranked generals of the Sachstein Army. Nicknamed Leonhardt the Blitz, he commands an invading force of 50,000 (all cavalry) and managed to defeat the Brune Army on several battles thanks to his tactics. Hotheaded and proud of his cavalry, while personally disliking Klugel, he vowed to defeat Tigre in revenge. Before the second clash between his army and the Moonlight Knights, the betrayal of their "allies", the Asvarre Army led by Graham made him retreat. King Augusto then ordered him not to return to the palace until Tallard had been slain while also promoting him to become Sachstein Supreme Commander to lead on Asvarre-Sachstein Campaign.

Other characters

 * Drekavac (ドレカヴァク)
 * Drekavac is the fortuneteller under the Thenardier Family who keeps dragons as the family's prime weapons, an old and cunning man, only he dares to speak to Thenardier disrespectfully. He seems to know about Tigre's Black Bow. His whereabouts after the death of Thenardier are currently unknown. It is revealed that he is also a demon in human form, and an old friend, and occasionally comrade, of the witch Baba Yaga. Although their relationship seems mainly that of old acquaintances of equal status who occasionally meet, don't fight, and sometimes help each other out (for a price), but have no ties of loyalty, rank, much less concern outside their personal interests. For example, when their fellow demon Torbalan died, none of them felt vengeful, grief, or any strong emotion other than idle curiosity, before moving on to their own interests. He calmly watched how Baba Yaga was killed and eaten by Ganelon and tells him that despite his denial, he's no longer a human, and that there's no need for all of them to be alive in order to achieve their goal.

 * Vodyanoy (ヴォジャノーイ)
 * Vodyanoy is a young man working for Drekevac. In reality he is a frog demon that was believed to only exist in fairytales. Was hired by Drekevac to steal Tigre and his bow. Although he was defeated by Tigre and Mira, he simply regenerated to report the situation to Drekevac. He seems willing to do anything for gold, which he immediately eats upon receiving, even if they're several bags worth. He's also strong enough to repel a Viralt barehanded and wasn't worried about facing Ludmila in combat. Like a frog he has the ability to jump long distances, shoot out a long tongue, but can also spit out a purple colored poison that can dissolve flying arrows in a split second. Vodyanoy can appear as a demonic shadow that ordinary people can't see, but those armed with Dragonic Tools (or a similar item) like Mila and Tigre can still see him. He felt no pity that his comrade Torbalan was killed. While he probably could be considered equal to Drekavac and Baba Yaga, he doesn't seem to have any personal interests or 'hobbies' like they do other than getting and eating gold. He reappeared to aid Baba Yaga in her fight against Liza, holding Elen and simply vanishes when Baba Yaga is defeated.


 * Torbalan (トルバラン)
 * Torbalan is another demon acquainted with Drekevac. He served Prince Elliot under the guise of a general called Leicester. Torbalan is a demon that kidnaps girls of his liking, has his way with them and then just devours them. His true form is that of a white giant monster with horns on the forehead that are capable of growing and retracting to be used as weapons. He's also capable of regenerating incredibly fast, rendering most injuries useless. He is defeated (but not killed) by the combined power of Tigre and Olga. He also has an interest in Tigre's Bow. Torbalan later reappears and attacks Tigre, Sofy and Olga when they were returning to Zhcted using a baby Sea Dragon. Although the Dragon is killed, he escapes and recruits a large army of pirates to invade Zhcted. He refers to Tigre and the war maidens by the weapon they wield, such as 'Bow' or 'Axe', as he has fought war maidens for centuries. He is finally killed by Sasha when the Fire war maiden used the full power of her Dragonic Tool to burn him, while preventing him from regenerating, until all that's left of him is a clod of soil.


 * Baba Yaga (バーバ.ヤガー)
 * Baba Yaga is a demon witch with the appearance of an old, short woman, the informed associate/comrade of Drekavac and Vodyanoy, and also the one who gives power to war maiden Elizaveta Fomina two years ago, when she stumbles into her temple. Although her relationship with Drekavac and Vodyanoy is friendly, aide seems to be in the form of a favor for a favor with no strong attachments. This is shown when Torbalan's death was discussed in a manner similar to talking about the weather, with no sorrow, grief, or any sign of seeking revenge.
 * She was referred as Jaeger-dono by Torbalan when he noticed Elizaveta's contract with her. She agrees to help Drekavac and Vodyanoy with inquiring the whereabouts of Tigre, and like the other demons she refers to him as "the Bow". She provoked nightmares to Liza in order to force her to seek more power, and thus fall more under her control. She gave power to over a dozen knights in order to have them singlemindedly kill Urz (Tigre), while unflinchingly ignoring Liza's orders, even after she struck most of them down. Using a Two-headed Dragon borrowed from Drekevac she attacked Liza and Tigre while at her cave, but unexpectedly Tigre temporarily summoned his Bow and killed the Dragon. This revelation made her switch from trying to kill him to abducting him, but was forced to escape when Liza used her Dragonic Skill at full power. While Tigre was still transported out, it was to another location separate from Baba Yaga.
 * After Liza destroys several of her temples, she finally confronts her, using her power over illusions, fire and lightning, overwhelming Liza, but as she prepares to kill her, Tigre and his soldiers arrive. Baba Yaga summons a hundred clod soldiers to confront her new enemies, while using her words to destroy the confidence of Liza and Tigre, but once Vorn manages to make Liza regain her will, Baba Yaga turns to her true form: a black-skinned, skeletal, bat-winged monster. She creates a Darkness snake that swallows Elen and Tigre, but once Tigre recovers his memories and recreates the Black Bow, she is shot and nearly killed, barely escaping, only to be later killed and absorbed by Ganelon.

Reception
In reviewing the first three episodes of the anime adaptation, Jacob Hope Chapman of Anime News Network stated that Tigre has "some of that "perfect milquetoast" blood running through him, but the stakes are raised so highly against him that it somehow works". On the relationship between Elen and Tigre, Chapman said that the "sympathetic barbs the two trade back and forth is reminiscent of the endearing character dynamics in Spice and Wolf or MAOYU." On Ludmila's character development, Chapman said that Tigre's "roundabout journey to winning Ludmila's heart made for some nicely paced episodes with enriching character development." In his review of the eleventh episode, Chapman criticized Valentina's characterization as "a major step down from the degree of respect and character writing the story allowed the rest of its female cast" and said that the bath scene with Regin contains a "hilarious continuity error" when she reveals herself.

Can Tran of Digital Journal not only liked the diversity of the female characters and villains but also liked the relationship between Tigre and Elen. Tran also said that Tigre "proves to be a true underdog hero."
