Alright.

Madason and Seliph are royals who didn't get the luxury that came with their title and lineage, starting their adventures as relatively down-to-earth heroes (as opposed to many of the destined and chosen heroes of their franchise) due to the actions of their father. Both also stand out for their affinity with animals (specifically, Madason's relationship with Saber and Seliph being a Mounted Unit unlike every other lord character in the series).

Both their journey is centered around vengeance for the fallen, and have a very personal grudge against cloaked bishops associated with dark cults. For all intents and purposes, their journey mimicks that of their late father, with the key distinction that they succeed in what they intend to do and thus get to be king at the end.

Interestingly enough, Madason puts heavy emphasis on magic, and yet has many weapons he can pick up and use, not unlike Arvis; who is a major cause as to Seliph's vengeance quest in the first place. Fittingly enough, Seliph is sort of an anti-mage in gameplay, primarily wielding the divine sword Tyrfing that makes him a mage-killer.
