Vale (ハイヂア村 Haidia Village) is a village situated at the  foot of Mt. Aleph,  and the hometown of several of the main  characters: The Venus Adepts  Isaac and Felix, and the Mars  Adepts Jenna and Garet,  as well as all their respective family members. It is the starting town of Golden Sun, and while departed from early in the game, it may  be revisted at later points in the game. From a story standpoint, it competes with Prox as the most  important settlement, and it is the  town the games' story both starts  off from and ends at. (Read more...)

Air's Rock is a dungeon-style location in Golden Sun: The Lost Age,  located in central Osenia, to the north of Garoh in the middle  of what appears to be a large desert. It is climbed up, delved into, and explored ultimately so that Sheba will obtain the important  Reveal Psynergy. It is notorious as the most enormous and time-consuming dungeon in the Golden Sun  series, even though it is explored relatively early in The Lost  Age. Playing through it can be postponed until later when Piers has joined the party, however. The name Air's Rock is a play on the real-world Ayers Rock, a large fold-mountain in the center of Australia  that all the Elemental Rocks resemble to a degree. (Read more...)

Alex is a Mercury Adept and major character in the Golden Sun series. While he is largely involved in the story, he has yet to be playable or even  fought in any game in the series, and has always remained an NPC. At many points, his motives and the reasons for his actions are mysterious,  and while he typically aligns himself with those that are viewed by the  main characters and the player as the villains, he always operates to  his own agenda, and never personally confronts the main characters in  battle. In spite of this, Alex is considered as one of the series' main antagonists. (Read more...)

Isaac is a Venus Adept, a playable character in Golden Sun and Golden Sun: The Lost Age, and a main character in the overall Golden Sun series. He is the silent protagonist and party leader of the original Golden Sun, and gains a speaking role in his appearance late in Golden Sun: The Lost Age as a co-leader of the game's extended final party. He returns as an NPC early in Golden Sun: Dark Dawn, where he has become husband to Jenna and father to Matthew. For being the most effective "main representative" of the Golden Sun series, Isaac serves a cameo role in the 2008 Nintendo fighting game, Super Smash Bros. Brawl. (Read more...)
