- Camille

Camille is a debt collector whose zeal for for capturing her debtors led her to join the Toran Liberation Army. Her dedicated pursuit and skill with her spear made her become known as "Camille the She-Devil". During the Gate Rune War, she was assigned to collect debts accumulated by Gremio, who had not had the opportunity to pay them off due to the exiling of the McDohl household from Gregminster.

After pursuing him for two months, Camille chanced upon Gremio in a bar in Kaku and tried to get the money out of him , but Viktor intervened. He told her that they did not have the money at the moment, but would get it to her as soon as they could. She agreed to join with Tir McDohl and his group until they could afford to pay back their debt. Camille brought up the debt at the first sign of peace, after the settling of Toran Castle, but Tai Ho shot her request down citing her "being a bore ." Reluctantly, Camille kept the matter quiet for the remainder of the war; it is unknown if she ever collected the debt.

Camille became close to Gremio during the Gate Rune War and was deeply affected by his death at the hands of Milich Oppenheimer. She stayed with the Liberation Army following this event, serving as a soldier throughout the war. After the Toran Liberation War ended, Camille became the lancing instructor of the Republican Army and one of the Six Great Generals of the Toran Republic. Over a decade later, Camille was assigned the position of an Honourary General of the Toran Republic in recognition of her service.

Trivia

 * If you choose to execute Milich Oppenheimer, Camille will undertake the role of executioner, out of vengeance for Gremio's apparent death . Ironically, her vengeance will prevent Gremio from being resurrected... by making a complete game impossible.
 * Camille's weapons (Garm, Fenrir, Loki) get their names from Norse mythology. Garm was the giant wolf that guarded Hel, Fenrir is another giant wolf who was actually the son of Loki, the Norse God of mischief. They are all interrelated because of the side they fight on during Ragnarok, the final battle that would end the world, according to Norse mythology.
 * Camille is one of the very few characters whose castle dialogue will change following Gremio's death.
