Religion

The religion of Expel and Nede is obscure, but fragments can be understood through statements and texts. Most deities listed below are worshipped throughout Expel, and may be characterized as part of a traditional religion of Expel. The town of Clik, however, worships the goddess Tria alone; the town of Mars has incorporated additional divinities into the traditional Expellian beliefs.

Non-Deities

 * Gabrie Celesta : A female angel who rules the Cave of Trials from Floor Thirteen. She is identified as a lawfully-aligned. Defeating her drops the Silver Trumpet, which may be used to summon Iselia Queen.

 * Priest : A servant of God. His real name is Marshall. A monotheist living and practicing in Arlia.
 * Puffy : A possible semi-deity, though her identity is obscure. Because she appears in multiple Star Ocean games, spanning hundreds of years, she seems near-timeless, and is able to parade through the Cave of Trials on her own, unhindered. In Star Ocean 2, she claims she is protected by a Weird Beast, although she easily survives in the Cave of Trials without it. Furthermore, after consumption of Mandrake, she is merely sickened when others would be killed.
 * Saint Triangle : A late master of Heraldry Arts. His principals (or "guidance") is called upon by Celine Jules in Star Ocean EX when she casts Firebolt. His name may be connected with the goddess Tria.
 * Xine : King of Demons on Expel. He rules from the peak of Lasguss Mountain and takes the form of a phoenix.
