After all these years, I didn’t think about the fact that these guys had similar designs and roles until now....

Elazul and Keldy are both the “knight” character. They also share a feathered headpiece to their left side and their right arms are enveloped with something of nature (Elazul’s arm is crystal covered in Lapis Lazuli and Keldy’s is covered in vine from the seed planted in his hand).

Pearl and Ritzia is a bit more of a stretch, they’re both ”damsels in distress” (and possibly more, but that’s spoiler territory). Both have similar style dress (e.g. Bell sleeves,overskirts). Ritzia’s being more modest and themed after plants due to being a tree maiden, where Pearl’s is covered in pearls (shocking) and her skirt gives the illusion of a clam shell for obvious reasons. In ways, they both have the same hairstyle, Ritzia’s is much calmer and proper, where Pearl’s is much more wild.
