Main

 * Kai - the hyperactive yet both cocky and determined son of the Monster King who after being only seen as a weak link by his father, heads on a quest to become strong enough to beat him, slowly gaining more and more strength to prove himself to his father, being rather connected to fire itself, using it for most of his attacks.
 * Silver - a cynical and focused monster slayer who wants to prove himself as the best, reluctantly being convinced by Kai to join him due to Kai needing partners to help him train. He wields a blade and is extremely agile.

Supporting
