Fire series. Wear simple clothes which made him a rather plain
character. Everything about him is a mystery. He first appeared naked in
a crater near Sarai. He travels with Nina in order to help her find
princess Elina as well as find his own background. He is a above-average
character and has well-rounded statistics as well as great dragon
magic.
Nina

Field Action : Hover (View the surroundings as Bird-Eye View)
Will: Cheer (Recover ally's HP when she is placed on back row)
Description:She is the princess of Wyndia. During the western continent tour, her sister, Elina mysteriously disappear without
much trace. Cray, travel with her to help her search
for her sister. During the journey, their vehicle is damaged and Nina has to
look for spare parts. On the trip, she meet up with Ryu and from then on,
they always travel together. She is a very strong magic user but is weak to attacks. Because of this, she becomes an undispensible person to the
party.
Cray
Age: ??
Hometown: Worent
Field Action : Push (Push heavy objects)
Will: Cover (Take damage for ally when placed on front row)
Description:The cheif of Worent. He travels with Nina to search for princess
Elina. During the journey, he gets himself into a lot of troubles and
with the help, he managed to escape death. Worens are
very good fighters so you can expect Cray to be very strong fighter. He is all
about brute force. He has some useful spells too so he can be a good
magic user.

party during the trip to Chamba. She volunteers to help your party cross
the hexed area. She was a purifier whose job is to travel from town to
town to clear the hexes. She joins your party after getting past north
Chamba. You will find her with a weird since of humor she laughs in situations that no one shouldn't
have laughed. She is a good
fighter with high attack power and high defense but is hopeless in
magic. Her attacks are a really inaccurate when you need them to hit but that doesn't make her a
bad character. She is suitable in all places. She fights well when you
place her in the front row and she support your party when you place her
in the back row. Just don't use her in a battle that requires strong
magic and you will find her to be useful.She also sleeps if she is not in the battle which gets really annoying

moved by Nina and Ryu's dedication towards friends and decided to join

Ryu's Dragon Forms
Aura
This is Ryu's first dragon form. It's also his cheapest (but by no
means 'cheap') in terms of magic cost. The good news is that you get the power
early in the game, far earlier than the first dragons in the other games.
You get it very shortly after Fou-Lu gets his Astral Dragon transformation,
while still in the first Chapter. The downside is
that you won't find any new dragon forms (except for the Berserk Kaiser)
until much later in the game, so get used to this one. You'll be using it
a lot. Plus, while you get the *form* at the start of the game, you don't
get the Dragon Breath attack until you get the Kaiser, either.
upgrade:none
Wyvern
The Fire Gem that gives Ryu this form is found in Mount Giga
area. It grants Ryu fire-based powers, leaving him weak to
water/ice powers, more than usual. It also provides a few
ability-boosting spells, but nothing other members of your party don't also
have. Let him go offensive, and let Cray boost people's stats if they need
it.
upgrade: Weyr
Behemoth
It still seems strange to equate the little dragon-man form with
what was the giant Behemoth in BoF3. Then again, the dragon in the
MeteorStrike sequence - showing what looks like the BoF3 Behemoth after its
been through hard times (some of its horns are broken off) - is definitely
familiar. And once again, this form is still slow, losing half of Ryu's Agility
and Wisdom scores, and it's weak to wind attacks. The Earth Gem for
this form is found in the mystery area between Pabpab and Saldine, second
"room" (coming from Pabpab), near the center of the large tree-covered
island in the middle. It's a blob of green in the middle of green grass in
the middle of a green island, so it's a bit difficult to see.
upgrade: Mammoth
Myrmidon
The Myrmidon dragon really looks like a tall guy in armor and a big sword. (Note also that Myrmidon is the name of the *basic* dragon form, not the advanced one as in BoF3). The only dragon-like traits are the shield-like claw for the left hand, and the large wings on his legs.
upgrade:Knight
Mutant
The full-dragon morph is small, and sadly cute, and very weak... except lowers enemies' stats to minimum, if it works (and, unlike most other stat-lowering powers, this one works fairly often). His other attacks all inflict status ailments. This is,
a good form for doing indirect damage, while your other party members wail
on the weakened foes. It causes a severe *drop* in most of Ryu's stats,
except for Wisdom.
Upgrade: Punk
Kaiser
This is the second dragon-form you get in the game... but it's berserk and uncontrollable until you find all the Dragon Summons, which you don't get until later. On the bright side, even uncontrolled, Ryu *usually* uses KaiserBreath on the opponents each round, though he will occassionally attack a random target, sometimes even your friends.
Upgrade:None
Fou-Lu Dragon Forms 
Astral Dragon
This is the first dragon you'll get in the game, even before getting Aura. You'll get this during Fou-Lu's first scenario. Even though you get it fast it is sadly Fou-Lu's only dragon for a long time. But with the Eraser it will pretty much be all you need in
his scenarios, and, unlike Ryu's Aura Dragon, the
Astral Dragon gets his breath attack the first time you use him.
Upgrade: none
Serpent
This is, Fou-Lu's version of the Wyvern. It has ice
attacks instead of fire attacks, and it also has attacks that reduce the
opponent's abilities, rather than attacks to increase the party's
abilities. The American version features the odd name
'Waterspout' for its breath attack, which is a giant spiked ball of
ice, as opposed to the Japanese name Hell-Blizzard. It is, of course, vulnerable to fire attacks.
Upgrade:Peist
Behemoth
This form is nearly identical to Ryu's dragon form, and he gets it when Ryu
does. Notice that Fou-Lu's Behemoth form has slightly different stat bonuses
than Ryu's.
Upgrade:Mammoth
Tyrant
Fou-Lu's version of the Kaiser. It's nearly identical, except for its breath attack, its element (it has a Level 3 Water attack instead of Level 3 Fire), and, as befits the Dark Dragons, Death instead of Resurrect. Pretty much in this form there opposites of each other.
Upgrade:none
The ultimate dragon form
Infini
*The* most powerful dragon in the game. For the sake of
avoiding spoilers, I'll leave out how to get it entirely, as well as who
gets it. It has Tyrant's breath attack, all three levels of all four
elemental dragon spells, and a diffrent ability, Soul Rend, that will never
miss.
appearance
Infini is just the Tyrant polygonal model, only a
different color. It has four 'wings' that are twisted, and there's a
holographic 'peacock's tail' behind it. Its Dark Wave attack is
identical to Tyrant's in terms of animation, the only chage is that it shows Infini unleashing the attack.
Upgrade:none
