Main characters

 * Arslan (アルスラーン)
 * The crown prince of Pars and the main protagonist. Age 14 (Pars era 320). During his first battle, his kingdom of Pars is conquered by Lusitania as a result of Kharlan's backstabbing. He's very gentle-natured and soft-spoken, unlike his father, and is very kind; he cares about those around him and values their lives over his own. At first oblivious to the dark parts of Pars, after meeting Etoile, Arslan becomes more aware of the evil his country is capable of and desires to learn about Lusitanian beliefs. He also grows smarter and wiser as journey goes, wanting himself to be a king fit for his people to serve and not despair of. Later it is revealed he is not the real son of Andagoras and Tahamine and was adopted from a commoner family in order to fill the place of a male heir (the two having previously only had a daughter who was sent away by Andragoras) based on his similar appearance to Tahamine.
