star ocean "till the end of time "

Fayt Leingod is the main character of Star Ocean 3. He is a seemingly-normal college student from Earth. His father, Robert Leingod, is a famous authority on symbological genetics, a highly controversial scientific field, and does much of his work on the orbital colony of Moonbase. Fayt is somewhat lazy when it comes to his college work and takes every opportunity during his vacation to Hyda IV, a famous resort planet, to ignore that work. He does this mostly by playing games, specifically, combat simulation holographic games. Sophia Esteed is a childhood friend of Fayt's who accompanies him to Hyda IV. Sophia was born on the orbital colony Moonbase and moved to Earth later. Because she is such close friends with Fayt and his parents, as well as her parents and Fayt's parents working together, she is considered a member of the family and refers to Fayt's parents as "Uncle Robert" and "Aunty Ryoko".

Shortly into the events of the game, Fayt is introduced to Cliff Fittir and Mirage Koas, his partner, who are Klausians born on the high-gravity planet Klaus III. They are members of the anti-Federation organization Quark, which is labeled a terrorist group by the Federation government. Both Cliff and Mirage have a special interest in Fayt which Fayt does not understand.

On the planet of Elicoor II, a backward planet with a technological level similar to that of 17th century Earth, the Kingdom of Airyglyph and the Sacred Kingdom of Aquaria feud. Nel Zelpher is an agent of Aquaria who specializes in infiltration and intelligence gathering and is a user of "Runology," which is suspiciously similar to Symbology studied in the Federation (or, for that matter, "Heraldry" on Expel in Star Ocean: The Second Story). Meanwhile, Albel Nox is the commander of the Black Brigade, one of the three military divisions of the Kingdom of Airyglyph, and is known as "Albel the Wicked," whom you fight early on in the game.

Later into the game, Maria Traydor is introduced, an enigmatic young woman hunted by the Federation.

Minor characters include Peppita Rossetti, a young Velbaysian dancer from a group known as the Rosseti Troupe; Roger S. Huxley, a young Menodix from the Lost City of Surferio, which lies in the Sanmite Republic on Elicoor II; and Adray Lasbard, the father of Clair Lasbard and member of the Crimson Blade of the Aquarian Kingdom on Elicoor II.

Adray Lasbard and Mirage Koas were added into the Director's Cut version of Star Ocean: Till The End of Time. Mirage was already in the original version as part of the story, but she never joined the party. Adray is a completely original character who was not in the original version of the game at all, and was added primarily to increase the appeal of the game's second release.
