There are many, many characters in Escaflowne, which may be one of the reasons why it's such a good show. Some of the names, as you will notice, are not linked. That is because the character has not developped enough yet. And while I can always go to a site to determine the kind of personality the character has, I'd rather make my own opinions. : )
Note: if you read anything that I have written about the characters offensive, please don't flame me. I describe these characters IMHO (In My Humble Opinion), and I'm not putting them down. Also, beware the spoilers.
