Main

 * Brian McGregor/Silver Swordsman - a college student who wields a magic blade and uses it to fight enemies that now wish to challenge him for it.

Supporting

 * David Paulson - a friend of Brian's who usually serves as comic relief. Despite being on the shorter side, he is rather strong and very protective of Brian.
 * Sabrina Roberts - a student at the college who is very popular and is very talkative with her friends but becomes shy and quiet when meeting new people.
 * Paula Wilson - a girl who Brian has known since high school and who has a rather open crush on him, completely ignoring the fact he is clearly not interested in her.
 * Collin O'Donald - a very large student at the college who isn't very bright and who can sometimes come across as a bully, though it's mostly his own way of having fun.
 * Jessica Myers - a transfer student from the US who is "fresh of the plain", meaning she doesn't fully understand how the UK works just yet.
 * Oliver Michaels - an incredibly intelligent student who is known for his ability to read patterns and to count bullets. He is also extremely socially awkward.
 * Woof - Brian's companion who is a blue wolf that has a few different abilities, its main one being teleportation. It is ambiguous whether or not he actually understands people.
 * Dillon McGregor - Brian's father who is a hard-working lawyer that respects the law quite a lot. He is a very fun and light-hearted joker.
 * Catherine McGregor - Brian's mother who is almost always in a good mood but snaps whenever her children are threatened or are in danger.
 * Miranda McGregor - Brian's older sister who works as a barista at a cafe and who enjoys teasing her little brother, much to his annoyance.

Antagonists

 * Samson Lewis/Golden Gladiator - a man who wears magic armor which is a part of the same set Brian's sword is from. He is both immortal and incredibly strong.
 * Puck - a trickster spirit who has immense magical abilities and is obsessed with Brian and his sword. Despite his vast array of abilities, he mostly uses his powers to annoy.
 * Mark Patrickson - a very high ranking crime boss who is well versed with the occult and has an obsession with a demon who is a Marquis of Hell named Amon.
 * Barghest - an extremely old dog/wolf-like being that has been around for a hundred years. Unlike other werewolves, he is able to speak and is rather intelligent.
 * The Sea King - the leader of an underwater nation of amphibious creatures. Unlike mermaids, they are more fish than man and take after piranhas quite a bit.
 * Amon - the demon who Mark Patrickson is obsessed with. He is a Marquis of Hell and is a very high ranking demon who leads an army of demi-humans.
 * Ghost Foot - an assassin for hire who wears a suit made of magical silk that was created by pixies. The suit grants him the ability to walk on air and turn intangible.
 * Balor - the king of a race of beings known as the Fomorians, who are a large group of supernatural sea raiders. He is always blindfolded, as his eye wreaks havoc when opened.
 * Cethlenn - Balor's wife who is a prophetess that can see unclear visions of the future, usually not remembering her own prophecies when she's done.
 * Bres - a Fomorian who will take over as king when Balor dies. Due to this, he constantly trains for this and has become the greatest of Fomorian warriors.
 * Walker - a deer-like man who hunts humans for sport and food. He has some form of moral code and is almost always very calm and reserved in fights.
 * Sawney Bean - while often ridiculed for his name, Bean is a truly horrifying threat. He is the leader of a large cult that worships him and is wanted for the murder and cannibalization of countless people.
