Note: This game takes place before Shining Force. The names from this game follow the first Shining Force game. Max was the main character in Shining Force. Hans was the first archer in the game. Bule was the dragon that was also in the first game. Anri was one of the Mages from Shining Force.
At the beginning of the game are two robots. they are called Adam and Chaos. These characters are from the original Shining Force game. Adam is a playable character in the original Shining Force, while Chaos becomes evil due to reprogramming.
When fighting the Boss of level 4, "Forest Of Another World", Michaela uses lightning spells just like in the first Shining Force game.
