a young orphan girl from the mountains, where she stayed a while attending to the farm left to her, until the bad men came to take her away. she is sweet innocent yet strong and hard working. sheeta holds the crystle neclace that is believed to unlock the secrets to laputa.

a young orphan boy who lives in a mining village and works as a boss' mate with the steam stuff to run minery things. obviously he's gotta protect the girl, who wouldnt. he has dreams of building a flying craft to see if he can find laputa, that his father once wrote a journal about seeing in a big cloud somewhere.

leader of the infamous pirate gang that mostly consist of her goofy sons. she is after the crystal necklace, and lives in an airship or dirigible thing, its a lot more cool looking than it sounds. kinda like the anime version of luxury boats.

tough mammas boys, they fly around on these fly winged jet ski type things.

don't know his real name, might be on the credits but i'm lazy, needless to say, he is pazu's boss in the mine, seems like a nice guy to.

a friend of pazu in his mining town.

a government secret agent, in charge of finding laputa. not a nice fellow.

in charge of the army, angry man, bit of a bafoon, doesnt like muska

muskas agents and the army, working together for the government. chasing innocent sweet sheeta. those punks, why i oughta!........

just a bunch of guys following orders.
