Notes

The name カール can be romanized as "Carl," "Karl," or "Curl." The Player Character is named after the snackfood, so this wiki uses "Curl" despite the common usage of "Carl" in western fan spaces.
¤ Alph was initially romanized as Alf in the Games but the Terminal Disc uses Alph. Both the English translation of the games and Another Birth mistakenly refer to Alph as a boy.
Sora's name in Zero uses ソラ rather than the characters (楚良) used in SIGN.
