Personality:   The third-generation head (known as the "Swordmaster") was one of the very first Void Hunters and played a key role in defeating a major Exaltist overseer/tyrant. This ancestor is legendary for slaying with a blade and had multiple tails (seven or nine in lore depictions). The Heirloom: Tailless Tailless is the family's cursed heirloom katana, passed down through generations. It is an Ethereal-Slaying Katana capable of creating Foxfire (a unique form of Etheric energy) and weaving illusions from it. The blade consumes the strength and sanity of wielders who rely too heavily on it, often leading to homicidal frenzy. The fate of many Hoshimi heads is described as "to kill." The family's reputation and power are heavily tied to this sword — some lore suggests the clan's strength comes more from Tailless than from individual talent alone. This is their closely guarded dark secret. Evolution of the Clan Early generations were pure warriors and Void Hunters who upheld a strong martial reputation. Later generations shifted focus from combat to political power and city management in New Eridu. They became one of the influential families involved in governance and Hollow-related affairs. Current Status (as of latest lore) The tenth-generation head is Hoshimi Souichirou. The family maintains prestige as a historic martial and political lineage. They have a tradition tied to the blade and Etheric power, with themes of sacrifice and curse running through their bloodline. Additional Clan Notes Many members are powerful warriors, but the family is known for producing Void Hunters. The name "Tailless" and the clan's Fox Thiren nature have led to speculation about tails being symbolically or literally connected to the blade's power (though this is interpretive). The clan has altruistic goals on the surface (protecting New Eridu) but hides darker aspects related to the sword's true nature. We know 4 named/titled Hoshimi Clan members in the game so far: The First Head — Founder of the family, forged the cursed blade Tailless. The Third-Generation Head ("Swordmaster") — One of the earliest Void Hunters. Legendary figure who defeated a major Exaltist overseer/tyrant. Often highlighted in lore teasers and animated shorts. Hoshimi Souichirou — The current 10th-generation head of the family. Miyabi’s father. He forged the scabbard for Tailless and passed the blade to his daughter. Hoshimi Miyabi — Daughter of Souichirou, current prominent heir and Void Hunter. ___ Who Are Tops? Tops Are Full Name: The Outstanding Paragons Alliance (shortened to TOPS). Role: They represent elite corporate power in the city, wielding massive influence over business, entertainment, finance, and urban operations. They rival the municipal authorities (e.g., the Mayflower family). Reputation: Viewed negatively by many citizens due to their cutthroat practices, but seen as a mark of "quality assurance" by companies aspiring to join. They evaluate members harshly and can expel even long-standing ones if performance drops. Structure: Governed by a Round Table with an unknown "Head" (currently asleep), the "Three Pacts" (major corporate groups like High Ambitions Corp. and Rusty Cliff Corp.), and the Krampus Compliance Authority (their internal enforcers/regulators who punish rule-breakers within TOPS). They have a motto-like oath emphasizing wealth, profit, ruthlessness, and guiding the future. Relationship to Agents Agents in ZZZ are playable characters (often freelancers, proxies' allies, or members of various factions like Cunning Hares, Victoria Housekeeping, Section 6, etc.). TOPS is not primarily an "agent faction" like the others — it's a corporate alliance that some characters and groups are affiliated with or work for/under. Affiliations: Some playable or notable agents/characters are tied to TOPS companies (e.g., entertainment or family-linked ones like Alice Thymefield, or those under High Ambitions subsidiaries). Krampus Compliance Authority is a TOPS subsidiary with its own agents/enforcers. Dynamic: Relationships vary — some agents work for TOPS entities (contracts, performances, family ties), while others (or proxies) may interact with them cautiously or oppositionally due to their ruthless corporate nature. TOPS can act as patrons, employers, or sources of conflict in the story. Examples: Characters from entertainment industries or specific families (e.g., Thymefield) often have direct or indirect ties. Some storylines involve evading or dealing with TOPS oversight. In short, TOPS is the "big money/power" faction that looms over New Eridu's corporate world, and agents relate to them mainly through employment, contracts, rivalries, or plot events rather than being core members of a combat-oriented faction. For the latest story details, check in-game events or the wiki, as lore expands with updates. ___ Old Void Hunter's - "Swordmaster" (Hoshimi Family) Weapon: Ethereal-Slaying Katana - Tailless (a cursed/ancient blade passed down in the Hoshimi family; known for its power against Ethereals). Outfit: Traditional swordswoman attire, likely elegant and combat-oriented with Hoshimi family motifs (similar aesthetic to Miyabi but older/ancestor style). Often depicted with a strong, dignified warrior presence. "Sunbringer" (Lady Sunbringer) Weapon: ??? (No specific named weapon confirmed; she’s more known as an inventor/combatant who took down a massive aerial Hollow. She may use advanced tech or unique abilities tied to her "Sun" theme.) Outfit: Initially shown with a mysterious, imposing design — pale skin, horns, aura cloak/coat (often with Marcel Group insignia), and a dignified/intimidating aura. Later depictions (e.g., Season 3) feature a more revealing, fantasy-style outfit with sun motifs, coat elements, and a striking presence. Some fans noted changes from a colder/more covered look to a bolder one. "Joyous" Weapon: ??? (No specific weapon mentioned; focused on exploration and navigation.) Outfit: ??? (Little to no detailed visual description available. Associated with the Investigation Guild, so likely practical explorer gear. Seen with a prototype Bangboo companion in lore.) Colonel Vike Weapon: ??? Outfit: Military uniform/style consistent with the Guard of Staves (formal, authoritative officer look). Lieutenant Colonel Dan Weapon: ??? Outfit: Similar military attire to Vike (Guard of Staves uniform). Leader of the Falkenhayn Mercenary Troupe Weapon: ??? Outfit: Mercenary-style gear (practical, combat-ready; often noted with pink hair in silhouettes/teasers). More independent/adventurer aesthetic than strict military. Professor Arche Weapon: ??? (Researcher, not primarily combat-focused in descriptions.) Outfit: Scholarly/academic robes or professional attire fitting the founder of Helios Academy. Mysterious and intellectual appearance. General Notes: Many of the originals share a thematic "Void Hunter" cloak or insignia in early teaser art, giving them a unified legendary look. Weapons for non-sword users are vague — some likely relied on unique abilities, tech (Sunbringer), or standard arms. Visuals are most detailed for Swordmaster and Sunbringer due to story ties (Miyabi lineage and recent regions like Roscaelifer). Others remain silhouette-level in older teasers. ___ Old Void Hunter's - "Swordmaster" (Hoshimi Family) — Hoshimi Family (noble family/clan with a long swordsmanship lineage). No broader faction beyond this family tie. "Sunbringer" (Lady Sunbringer) — Marcel Group (former CEO; major corporation). She later founded/ruled Roscaelifer (a region tied to her legacy). "Joyous" — Investigation Guild (Ace and Leader). His work influenced modern Hollow Investigators and Proxies. Colonel Vike — Guard of Staves (high-ranking military/official faction). Lieutenant Colonel Dan — Guard of Staves (same as Vike). Leader of the Falkenhayn Mercenary Troupe — Falkenhayn Mercenary Troupe (independent mercenary group). Professor Arche — Helios Academy (founder). No other major faction mentioned. ____ Lady Sunbringer Sunbringer is one of the individuals who existed during the era of Eridu's founding, where she eradicated the "Hive Lord" Hollow in the sky, and was granted the title of Void Hunter. She is the inventor of Bangboo, with her prototype for the robots helping Joyous during his navigating of the Divine Maze. She has the notion to create even more intelligent Bangboo who were able to be better at protecting humanity, with Lockspring being the first creation on her path to this idea. She built into him sophisticated combat systems and programmed him with the directive to protect humanity, though ultimately this would drive him into the hands of The Creator after the Fall of the Old Capital. After becoming Void Hunter, Sunbringer led expeditions into the Lemnian Hollow, discovering, naming, and coordinating the mining of Lumite Ore to be turned into Porcelume for the sake of the people's future. The people looked to her with a mix of reverence and fear during this time, due to her increible, almost inhuman skill at navigating Hollows, and her refusal to explain how she gained such insight. She would later come into contact with the Creator, who stole a portion of her power, which was then reflected in the Primordial Nightmare - "The Creator". At some point in time she became the CEO of Marcel Group, and would later step down from this position. She also founded the utopia Roscaelifer, which she is the current ruler of, a paradise where Bangboo and humans live in peaceful coexistence.[6] ___ Wise and Belle's Relationship They are very close, supportive siblings with a caring, playful dynamic. Their interactions feel natural and relatable, often compared to real sibling banter (teasing, worrying about each other, teamwork). They operate as a team in their Proxy work (guiding people through Hollows). Depending on player choice, one is the main controllable character while the other acts as an assistant/NPC, but both are always present in the story and voiced. They share a strong bond, with moments of mutual protection and emotional support (e.g., one worrying when the other is in danger). They grew up together (possibly from an orphanage/institute background), and their relationship is portrayed positively without rivalry. Fan discussions sometimes speculate on whether they are biologically related (due to hair color differences or lore hints), but they are consistently treated and referred to as siblings in canon. Fairy’s Relationship with Wise and Belle Fairy is a sophisticated Type III general AI (one of four "Keys") that specializes in Hollow exploration and analysis. She integrates into their HDD system early in the game and becomes a key assistant to Phaethon (the siblings). She addresses the player (one of the siblings) as "Master" and helps rebuild their Proxy reputation after setbacks. She is highly capable but has a quirky, somewhat sassy or teasing personality. Her dynamic with the siblings is comedic and familial/friendly. There are lighthearted scenes where Fairy and Belle playfully "compete" or bicker over Wise (e.g., Fairy jokingly trying to act as a "cute energetic sister" figure), adding humor to their interactions. Fairy is loyal to the Proxy team and assists both siblings, though some lore theories (fan-made) speculate deeper connections (e.g., modeling or origins linked to Belle), but in the main story she functions as their advanced AI companion/guide. Overall dynamic: Wise, Belle, and Fairy form a close-knit "family" unit at Random Play. Wise and Belle are the core sibling duo with deep trust and partnership, while Fairy adds a witty, helpful AI element with fun rivalries and support. Their group handles Proxy work, video store life, and New Eridu adventures together. The tone is generally wholesome, energetic, and cooperative. ___ "Joyous" was the Ace of the Investigation Guild and the predecessor to both Investigators and Proxies. One of his greatest achievements was navigating the Papago Hollow, also known as the "Divine Maze," all on his own. He was the first to leave a Hollow using his own calculated path, setting the standard for exploration routes. When "Joyous" escaped the Hollow, his only companion was a borrowed Bangboo—a prototype created by "Sunbringer" herself. The first "Carrot" was stored in the Bangboo.[1][2] ___ Void Hunters They were the first recipients of the prestigious Void Hunter title, awarded at the time of Eridu's foundation (the precursor to New Eridu). These were extraordinary individuals—powerful warriors, protectors, and innovators—who played a key role in humanity's early survival against the Hollows (dangerous, reality-corrupting disasters filled with Ethereals). Not much detailed public information exists about their individual identities or full stories (much of it is locked behind deep Inter-Knot database files like "The City Defenders"), but they are revered as foundational heroes. Some lore teasers and in-game references portray them as "seven travelers of the World's Void" who made pivotal decisions under great pressure. Their core purpose was to combat the Hollow disaster and ensure the survival and founding of a safe human city (Eridu) in a world threatened by these metaphysical catastrophes. They represented the highest honor and strongest force dedicated to protecting civilization from the Void/Hollow threats Their duty went beyond simple fighting. As the original Void Hunters: They actively suppressed or repelled dangerous Hollows and Eradicated powerful Ethereals to carve out safe space for humanity. Some contributed through revolutionary inventions or technologies that helped combat the Hollows or sustain the city. They were essentially city defenders and hunters of disaster, laying the groundwork for New Eridu's existence. The title itself symbolizes this legacy: heroes who performed great feats to make life possible amid apocalyptic threats __ Lady SunBringer A extraordinarily powerful combatant and one of the first people awarded the Void Hunter title. Former CEO of the Marcel Group (a major corporation/tech company). Described as wise, kind, approachable, and deeply loving toward humanity. Nicknamed "Lady Sunbringer" due to her heroic feat of single-handedly eradicating a massive threat. She is revered as a hero, innovator, and protector who contributed immensely to humanity's survival and progress. Her most famous creation is the Bangboo — the adorable, multifunctional robotic companions that players know and love throughout the game. She invented them while at Marcel Group (before stepping down). Early models included high-firepower combat series (e.g., prototype GU00001, with examples like the ancient Bangboo Lockspring being one of her personal creations). Bangboo were designed with a core directive to serve and protect humanity, reflecting her values. Some advanced ones even show sophisticated combat systems and near-"soul"-like programming. Beyond Bangboo, she: Led expeditions into the Lemnian Hollow. Discovered, named, and helped mine Lumite Ore, which was refined into Porcelume (a key Ether-absorbent material vital for technology and the city's future). She is also linked to founding or ruling Roscaelifer, a utopian floating island (possibly above New Eridu), which features heavily in recent lore hints. Her Legendary Feat She earned the "Sunbringer" title by destroying the Hive Lord Hollow — a colossal, sky-blocking threat (a massive Hollow/Ethereal that literally obscured the sun). This act helped secure the skies and early Eridu Lady Sunbringer Personality - wise, kind, and approachable: This is the most consistent public perception of her. Researchers and people in recordings (like ‘Mortal – Echo’) describe her this way. She came across as someone accessible despite her immense power and status. Deeply loving toward humanity: Her actions and creations reflect profound care. She invented the Bangboo with a hardcoded prime directive to serve and protect humanity. Ancient Bangboo like Lockspring emphasize that she "loved humanity more than anything ever could," and every invention or advancement was for the greater good. Brilliant innovator and leader: As former CEO of Marcel Group and founder/ruler of the utopian floating island Roscaelifer (a paradise of peaceful human-Bangboo coexistence), she shows visionary, forward-thinking leadership. Mysterious and somewhat feared: While revered as a hero, her extraordinary (almost inhuman) skill at navigating Hollows and refusal to fully explain her insights led to a mix of reverence and fear. Some historical accounts hint at rumors of power abuse or controversy, and there are themes of betrayal and forgiveness in her story (she reportedly chose to forgive even after being branded an enemy). Self-sacrificing protector: Her feats (like destroying the sky-blocking Hive Lord Hollow) and overall legacy paint her as someone willing to give everything for humanity's survival and future. Lady Sunbringer look Overall Build: Extremely tall, slender, and elegant with a commanding, dignified presence. She gives off an intimidating yet graceful aura. Skin: Very pale (almost unnaturally white), contributing to her mysterious and powerful vibe. Hair: Long, flowing white/silver hair with a distinctive shape that enhances her unique silhouette. Eyes: Bright yellow (or golden) eyes with thin, slit-like pupils that resemble a cat's. Some descriptions mention sun-like or star-patterned elements in her pupils, giving them a radiant, glowing quality. Horns: Prominent, cool, crown-like or large curved metallic-looking horns that spread out, adding to her regal and imposing look. Attire: Often depicted in a majestic, covered-up outfit with a flowing cloak or aura-like elements (sometimes featuring Marcel Group insignia). It emphasizes her role as a warrior-leader rather than revealing clothing. She carries a sense of ancient power and authority. And she still remind alive in new Eridu ___ Core Members & Dynamics Nicole Demara (Founder & Leader): Street-smart, cunning, money-obsessed but caring boss. She recruits and takes in the others, acting as the glue of the group. She's greedy yet protective, often dragging the team into risky jobs for pay while looking out for them. Anby Demara (Adoptive/"Sister" Figure): Quiet, stoic, movie-obsessed ex-soldier with a mysterious military past (former leader in Silver Squad/Obol Squad). Nicole saved her life and gave her the Demara surname. Their bond is very close—often described with sisterly or deeper affectionate undertones (e.g., cuddling during movie nights). Anby shows emotional dependence on Nicole and can get jealous of attention Nicole gives others. Billy Kid (Enforcer/Gun Enthusiast): Cheerful, energetic android/Intelligent Construct with a dark past as a feared enforcer in the Outer Ring (linked to biker gangs like predecessors of Sons of Calydon). He's the comic relief and big-hearted "little bro" type—loyal, fanboyish (Starlight Knights), but capable of being ruthless when needed. He fits in as the upbeat teammate who balances the group. Nekomiya Mana (Nekomata) (Newest Member): Energetic, thieving catgirl (Thiren) and former Red Fang Gang member. She joins after Chapter 1 events. She's playful and adds chaotic energy, often bantering with the others. She sometimes feels a bit like the "new kid" and can be jealous of Nicole-Anby closeness, but integrates well into the family dynamic. Overall Group Relationship Found Family Vibes: All members have left behind difficult pasts (orphan backgrounds, military, gangs, etc.) and found a home with Nicole. Despite bickering, debt, and chaotic jobs, they are deeply loyal and have no desire to leave. Their interactions mix humor, teamwork in Hollows, and mutual support. Original Trio (Nicole, Anby, Billy): The core group with the strongest established bonds. They handle most commissions together before Nekomata joins, forming a classic "Cunning Hares Trio" dynamic. With Nekomata: Expands them into a "Quad." She brings fresh energy and fits the misfit theme, though her integration highlights some existing closeness (e.g., Nicole-Anby). ___ Core Members & Dynamics Koleda Belobog (President): The young leader and biological daughter of the founder, Khors Belobog. After her father’s disappearance (linked to a scandal), she stepped up to rebuild the company’s reputation and operations.

Grace Howard (Mechanical Engineer / R&D): Eccentric, machine-obsessed genius. She is Koleda’s adoptive older sister. Khors adopted Grace after her own parents (researchers) disappeared in Hollow-related incidents.

Ben Bigger (Finances/Assets, Bear Thiren): Large, gentle, and reliable bear-like figure who handles logistics and acts as a voice of reason. He serves as a kind, patient father-figure or big brother to the group, especially to Koleda. He’s loyal, level-headed, and provides emotional stability.

He’s the upbeat, motivational teammate who brings energy and camaraderie. He has strong brotherly bonds with the others and is fully committed to Koleda’s vision for the company. Overall Group Relationship Found Family / Work Family: The members (especially the core four) treat each other like family rather than just coworkers. They stuck together through the company’s darkest times after Khors’ disappearance. Their interactions are supportive, humorous, and loyal, with a warm atmosphere amid heavy machinery and dangerous Hollow work. Koleda’s central role: Everyone is fiercely loyal to her and helps her restore Belobog’s glory. Grace’s sisterly closeness stands out the most, while Ben and Anton act as reliable pillars (fatherly/big bro energy). Intelligent Machines: Grace created several sentient heavy machines (Greta, Hans, Friday, Geroy) that also function as part of the extended “family” with their own personalities. ___ Core Members & Dynamics Von Lycaon (Wolf Thiren, Butler / Substantive Leader): The professional, disciplined, and imposing leader who represents the company.

Ellen Joe (Shark Thiren, Junior Maid): The sleepy, efficient, and powerful newest member (relatively recent addition). She balances her maid work with a normal school life. Lycaon and Rina attend her parent-teacher conferences as guardians, reinforcing their role as surrogate parents. She values the team as her close-knit family. Overall Group Relationship Surrogate Family / Household Unit: Lycaon and Rina function as the parental figures who "took in" the younger girls. The members live together (or spend most of their time together), share meals, celebrate birthdays, and support each other beyond work. The two juniors (Corin and Ellen) are treated with care and guidance, while the seniors provide structure and warmth. Professional + Personal Bond: Extremely loyal and coordinated in combat (often considered one of the strongest teams). Their interactions mix formality (maid/butler etiquette) with genuine affection, teasing, and mutual protection. They have a "monster motif" theme (werewolf, ghost, Frankenstein, shark) that adds fun flavor to their horror-inspired aesthetic. Connection to Story: They work closely with Phaethon (Wise/Belle) on high-profile commissions and have deeper ties to New Eridu's Mayor (their nominal employer), including secret missions and support. ___ Core Members & Dynamics Hoshimi Miyabi (Chief / Founder): Youngest Void Hunter, stoic swordswoman from a renowned martial arts family with a cursed sword (Tailless). She is determined and heroic but eccentric and somewhat socially awkward. She founded Section 6 with a strong sense of justice, though she can be impulsive or overly prideful. The others respect her as the leader, but she often leaves day-to-day operations and management to Yanagi. Tsukishiro Yanagi (Deputy Chief): The practical leader and Team Mom of the group. She is highly competent, intelligent, and hardworking (often handling most administrative tasks). She acts as the glue that keeps the eccentric team functioning. She has a motherly/sisterly bond with Soukaku (her legal guardian/caretaker) and is perceptive about the team’s needs (including secretly knowing about Harumasa’s health issues). She and Miyabi share a strong professional partnership. Soukaku (Young Oni Member): Cheerful, energetic, big-eater child-like Oni. She was saved and taken in by Yanagi (adoptive guardian/mother-figure relationship; they live together). She views Yanagi as a big sister/mom and brings innocent, chaotic energy to the team. The others are protective of her; she is the "baby" of the group. Asaba Harumasa (Executive Officer): Relaxed, seemingly lazy/slacker type who is actually highly skilled (archery/swordsmanship). He has a mysterious/troubled past (possible lab experiments) and hidden health issues. He gets along well with everyone (especially kids) but often teases or clashes lightly with Yanagi in a sibling-like way. The team supports him despite his obfuscating stupidity. Overall Group Relationship Eccentric Work Family / Office Dynamic: Section 6 mixes elite military professionalism with quirky "salaryman/office worker" vibes. Behind the scenes, they are a bunch of gluttons and slackers (except Yanagi), with paperwork complaints, teasing, and mutual support. They are fiercely loyal and highly effective in combat. Found Family Elements: Strongest between Yanagi and Soukaku (guardian/mother-daughter or big sister). Miyabi acts as the idealistic leader everyone rallies behind. Harumasa fits as the laid-back brother figure. Yanagi serves as the caring anchor for the whole team.

She adds a calm, sometimes teasing or relaxed energy to the team and is reliable in combat and support. Seth Lowell (Rookie Member): Idealistic, straight-laced mouse Thiren and enthusiastic newcomer. He is the "pure-hearted rookie" who looks up to Zhu Yuan and the others. The team (especially Zhu Yuan and Qingyi) is protective of him and sometimes shields him from more sensitive information (e.g., Jane’s full background) due to his by-the-book nature. He brings youthful energy and strong moral drive. Overall Group Relationship Professional Police Squad with Found Family Vibes: They operate like a well-oiled investigative unit with clear hierarchy (Zhu Yuan in command) but show genuine care and loyalty. Interactions include strategy meetings, teasing (Qingyi toward Seth), and mutual support in dangerous operations. Jane is treated as an honorary/core member despite her consultant status. Key Pairings: Zhu Yuan is the respected big sister/leader figure. Strong trust between Zhu Yuan and Jane (professional partnership with subtle depth). Qingyi acts as a steady, experienced teammate. Seth is the optimistic little brother the others guide. ___ Core Members & Dynamics Orphie Magnusson & Magus (Captain): The dual-entity leader.

Trigger (Sniper/Support): Kind, near-blind (Ether-corrupted eyes) sniper with heightened senses and a color-changing mask that reflects emotions. Survivor of Lyre Squad. She is calm and professional but carries deep trauma and PTSD. She forms strong protective bonds with the team and has a subtle "stalker" protective interest in Phaethon after they help her process grief. Seed ("Flora", Heavy Weapons): Eccentric, deadpan, flower-eating girl who pilots the massive Intelligent Construct Seed Sr. (her adoptive father-figure). Seed Sr. rescued her as a child, raised her with gardening and art, and joined Obol Squad to ensure she had a family before his "death." Seed has immense Ether aptitude and destructive powers tied to emotions. She is introverted but learns to open up and lean on the squad for emotional support. Mercury (Combat Bangboo): The squad's support unit. Overall Group Relationship Found Family of Misfits & Trauma Survivors: Most members come from destroyed previous squads or tragic backstories.

Protective and sisterly ties among the younger members (e.g., Soldier 11's complicated "sister" link to Anby outside the squad). Mutual reliance in combat and emotional healing (e.g., Seed reaching out to the squad after Seed Sr.'s passing). ___ Core Members & Dynamics Astra Yao (Main Vocalist): The shining star and public face of the group. She is a highly talented, sought-after songstress who performs in both major venues and underground spots like the Reverb Arena.

Their dynamic mixes professional precision with private care, trust, and affection. Key Themes: Protection, mutual reliance, and shared joy in music/life. Evelyn helps Astra navigate fame and dangers, while Astra helps Evelyn experience normal joys and connection. They are fiercely protective of each other and treat their small team as a safe "home" amid the spotlight. ___ Angels Of Delusion Group Dynamic The trio functions as a close-knit, found-family unit with complementary roles and personalities.

Their bond is very close and affectionate — they treasure each other, with emotional moments like confessions of how much they mean to one another in events. Rumors of them not getting along exist but are surface-level. Sunna & Aria: Strong creative and personal connection through music. They spend long hours in the studio discussing melodies, often falling asleep together. Sunna writes many songs with Aria's vocals in mind. Aria helps draw Sunna out, and they share quiet, supportive moments. Aria & Nangong Yu: Professional and supportive.

A motherly figure who took in most members. She is especially protective of Ye Shunguang (due to the dangerous Qingming Sword and past trauma from her own sister Yijiang, a previous wielder). This protectiveness can cause tension, as Shunguang sometimes resents being overly sheltered. Yixuan trains Phaethon siblings in Ether control and leads the group’s revival after heavy losses. Ju Fufu’s Position: As the most senior disciple and Yixuan’s first student, she’s like a reliable big sister/mentor to newer members (including Pan Yinhu and the Phaethon siblings). She’s energetic and strategic but gets teased for her cute appearance. Juniors adore her cuteness. Pan Yinhu: The friendly “middle” member and faction cook. He’s a junior to Fufu but senior to Phaethon. He has a redemption backstory (former aimless wanderer saved by the sect) and brings warmth through food and community help. Ye Siblings (Shunguang & Shiyuan): Brother-sister duo with contrasting light/dark themes. Their relationship ties into faction lore involving the Qingming Sword. Shunguang’s role as sword wielder brings extra pressure and some overprotectiveness from the group. Overall dynamic: Warm, supportive, hierarchical (master > senior > junior) but affectionate. They train together, help locals, and deal with threats like Miasma/Ethereals. Tensions arise from the dangerous legacy of the Qingming Sword, past losses (Hollow Zero incident nearly wiped them out), and overprotectiveness, but these strengthen their bonds as they rebuild the sect. ___ Core Members Hugo Vlad — Founder and current leader. Charismatic, vengeful, and strategic head thief. Vivian Banshee — Apprentice / newest member. Young, enthusiastic trainee under Hugo. Von Lycaon — Co-founder and former member. Left the group due to ideological differences. Robin — Their associated Bangboo (themed around phantom thief aesthetics). Key Relationships Hugo Vlad & Von Lycaon (The most central and tragic dynamic) They were both proteges of the original phantom thief Jack. After Jack’s death, they co-founded Mockingbird together. Their bond started as close brothers-in-arms with shared ideals. A major rift occurred: Hugo took more extreme revenge against his own father and was involved in an incident that killed innocents (according to Lycaon’s perspective). Lycaon believed Hugo broke their no-kill oath, leading to a bitter split. Lycaon left the faction. Their relationship is marked by deep-seated tension, betrayal, and lingering care. Hugo continues leading Mockingbird, while Lycaon joined Victoria Housekeeping. There’s potential for reconciliation or further conflict in the story. Hugo Vlad & Vivian Banshee (Master-Apprentice) Hugo took Vivian under his wing and is personally training her as a phantom thief. It’s a mentor-protégé relationship with Hugo acting as a guiding (and sometimes strict) figure. Vivian looks up to him and brings energy/fresh perspective to the group. Hugo sees potential in her and invests in her growth. Their dynamic adds a lighter, more hopeful layer to Mockingbird after the earlier fallout. __ 26. Seed The Unshakable Foundation: Seed represents the physical and mental endurance of the squad. Her persona is rooted in being the "anchor" for her teammates—someone who provides stability when a mission goes south.Interaction Style: She is stoic and incredibly dependable. While Soldier 11 provides the offensive drive, Seed provides the defense. She interacts with a sense of "quiet strength," rarely complaining and always standing her ground. She is the person you want by your side when things get truly desperate.Quirks: She likely values routine and maintenance, finding peace in the repetitive tasks of gear upkeep. 27. Orphie & Magus (The Shared Body) The Persona (Orphie): A timid and insecure girl who feels like a "spare" because she is a clone. She is soft-spoken and easily overwhelmed. Because she physically shares her body with Magus, she often feels like she has no privacy and struggles to find her own voice.The Persona (Magus): A battle-hardened female captain whose consciousness was uploaded into Orphie's mechanical tail. She is loud, aggressive, and incredibly proud. Even as a tail, she carries herself like she’s still leading a battalion.Interaction Style: Their relationship is a constant tug-of-war. Magus often "yanks" Orphie into battle or barks orders directly into her ear. Orphie treats the tail with a mix of fear and annoyance, frequently apologizing to others for the rude things her tail says. It’s a "two-souls-one-body" dynamic where the tail is often the one in charge. ___ *Stars of Lyra 28. Astra Yao The Persona (The Idol): Astra is the most famous singer and actress in New Eridu. On stage, she is the "First Diva"—a shining, perfect, and untouchable icon. However, her true personality is whimsical, mischievous, and chaotic. She finds the rules of high society boring and constantly tries to sneak away to explore the "real" world and eat common street food.Interaction Style: She is incredibly charismatic and treats everyone she meets with high energy and a playful attitude. She is a "chaos-maker" who loves to see people's reactions when she does something unexpected. She is wholesome and kind-hearted but can be a major headache for those trying to keep her on schedule. 29. Evelyn Chevalier The Persona (The Guardian): Evelyn is a former elite warrior who now serves as Astra’s manager and personal bodyguard. She is the definition of "Stoic Professionalism." She is cool-headed, disciplined, and carries herself with a knight-like sense of honor. She hides a deeply caring heart behind a "tough-as-nails" exterior.Interaction Style: She is the "Straight Man" to Astra’s antics. Her interactions are defined by duty, vigilance, and a dry, exhausted wit. She spends most of her time "hunting" for Astra when she sneaks out or apologizing to officials for the chaos Astra leaves behind. She is the only person who can truly keep Astra grounded. The Relationship: Who they are to each other For Astra, Evelyn is her "Anchor": Astra views Evelyn as her most trusted friend, protector, and a "big sister" figure. She knows she can be her true, chaotic self around Evelyn without judgment. Astra often teases Evelyn and tries to "break" her serious exterior just to see her smile.For Evelyn, Astra is her "Mission and Family": To Evelyn, Astra isn't just a job; she is someone she has sworn to protect at all costs. She views Astra as a precious, albeit exhausting, younger sister. Evelyn is the one who saved Astra's public image, and Astra is the one who helped Evelyn find a new purpose after her traumatic past. ___ *Angels of Delusion (The Idol Group) 30. Nangong Yu (The "Sharp" Leader)The Persona (The Backbone): Nangong Yu is the choreographer and tactical leader. She is the "Cool Beauty" of the group—always composed, professional, and business-minded. While she appears laid-back or even a bit lazy off-stage, she is secretly a workaholic who ensures the group's survival in the harsh underground scene.Interaction Style: She acts as the "Protective Big Sister." She uses teasing and dry wit to keep her teammates in check, but she is the first to step in if anyone threatens them. She is pragmatic and doesn't like wasting time, often being the bridge between the idols and the dangerous clients they work for.Hidden Side: She feels immense pressure to keep the group successful because she views Sunna and Aria as her chosen family. Her "tough love" is her way of keeping them safe. 31. Sunna (The "Shy" Composer) The Persona (The Heart): Sunna is a musical genius but suffers from extreme social anxiety. She is the group's composer—writing the melodies that define their sound. On stage, she often looks like she’s about to faint from nerves, which fans find "moe" or endearing, but for her, it’s a real struggle.Interaction Style: She is incredibly quiet, avoidant of eye contact, and often hides behind Nangong Yu during conversations. She expresses her true feelings through music rather than words. However, if someone insults her teammates or their work, she shows a surprising, stubborn bravery.Hidden Side: Despite her fragility, she is the emotional glue of the team. She notices the smallest changes in her friends' moods and writes songs specifically to comfort them. 32. Aria (The "Humanoid" Vocalist) The Persona (The Voice): Aria is an Intelligent Construct (robot) who serves as the lead vocalist. She is a perfectionist with an endless battery of energy. Because she doesn't tire, she practices more than anyone else. She often uses advanced holographic technology to enhance her performance, aiming to look like the "ideal" girl.Interaction Style: She is high-energy, helpful, and very literal-minded. She struggles to understand human nuances like "sarcasm" or "sadness," often asking blunt, logical questions that can be unintentionally funny. She is obsessed with being "useful" to the group, fearing that if she isn't perfect, she'll be viewed as just a machine.Hidden Side: She deals with deep "imposter syndrome." She desperately wants to feel a real human heart beating in her chest and looks to Sunna and Nangong Yu to learn what it truly means to be a "girl." *Yunkui Summit Member's 33. Ye Shunguang (The "Void Hunter" Elite) Persona: Ye Shunguang is the personification of "unshakable stillness." As an S-Rank agent, she carries a heavy burden of responsibility. She is not just a fighter; she is a philosopher of war. She is incredibly disciplined, rarely showing emotion or fatigue. She lives by a strict code of martial honor and views the chaos of the Hollows as a test of one's spirit.Interaction Style: She speaks in a low, resonant tone that commands immediate silence. She is the "Calm Mother/Leader" archetype who doesn't need to shout to be obeyed. In conversation, she is polite but pierces through lies effortlessly. She interacts with a sense of "heavy" presence—others naturally feel the need to stand straighter when she is around. 34. Ju Fufu (The "Fierce Tiger" Senior) Persona: Despite her small stature, Ju Fufu is a high-ranking "Senior" with a massive ego and even bigger combat prowess. She is explosive, high-energy, and fiercely competitive. She views herself as the "King of the Mountain" and has a "Tiger" theme that reflects her predatory and aggressive fighting style. She is incredibly proud of her heritage and her physical strength.Interaction Style: She is loud, boisterous, and has zero filter. She treats social interactions like a sparring match—if you aren't interesting or strong, she has no time for you. She hates being treated like a child and will often pick a fight just to prove her dominance. She is the "Fire" of the team, constantly pushing everyone into action. 35. Yixuan (The "Ethereal" Mystic) Persona: Yixuan is the group’s spiritual guide. Her persona is deeply connected to ancient Taoist-style mysticism and Ether energy. She often seems "detached" from reality, as if she is looking at a world two seconds into the future. She is elegant, graceful, and carries a heavy aura of mystery. She is often seen with scrolls or charms that she uses to "seal" corruption.Interaction Style: She is soft-spoken and cryptic. She doesn't give straight answers, preferring to use metaphors about "flow" and "balance." She interacts with a gentle, "spacey" kindness that makes people feel like they are being psychoanalyzed. She is the one who notices when a teammate is mentally struggling before they even realize it themselves. 36. Pan Yinhu (The "Feral" Sentinel) Persona: Pan Yinhu is the group's agile scout and silent protector. Since we are describing her as a girl, she is a lean, muscular warrior who moves with animalistic speed. Her persona is defined by "instinct" rather than logic. She is restless, always on edge, and possesses a predatory focus. She is the most "feral" of the group, feeling more at home in the dangerous Hollows than in the city.Interaction Style: She is a woman of action, not words. She often communicates through body language—a sharp glance, a defensive stance, or a quick nod. She is fiercely loyal to her squad and acts as the "Shield" that strikes from the shadows. She is suspicious of outsiders and interacts with a guarded, slightly "wild" demeanor. *Krampus Compliance Authority. 37. Promeia Build: Tall & Slender. She has a very sharp, angular, and "cold" physical presence. Her posture is stiff and authoritative, like a strict school headmaster or a high-ranking judge. The Coat as a Weapon: One of the most unique parts of her design is that her coat is actually sentient or mechanically controlled. In battle, she throws the coat, and it fights independently, spinning and slashing at enemies while she moves in her under-suit. Under-suit Design: Beneath the heavy coat, she wears a sleek, dark leotard/bodysuit. Earlier concept leaks showed a more revealing version, but her final design is more "professional" to match her military theme. The "Spider" Motif: If you look closely at her back and the straps on her boots, there is a subtle web-like pattern. This ties into her lore as someone who "traps" criminals. The Chains: She often incorporates silver chains into her outfit, which represent her authority to "shackle" enemies (fitting for an Ice Anomaly character who freezes opponents). Personality: "Promeia is a stoic and strict Judge who operates with terrifying bureaucratic efficiency. She is obsessed with 'Compliance' and views the world through the rigid lens of the law. While she may seem like a humorless executioner who hunts down anyone on the 'Naughty List,' there is a hidden layer of calm kindness 'unshackled' beneath her cold, professional exterior." Weapons: The Frost-Iron Cane — A sophisticated metallic cane that can extend into a whip or emit pulses of sub-zero energy to freeze targets in place for "sentencing." Faction: Krampus Compliance Authority. 38.Banyue (often called Banyue Shifu) The Mountain: Banyue is the steadfast, composed martial arts master of Krampus Compliance Authority (with ties to traditional teachings). He is calm, patient, and noble, carrying an iron will tempered by deep repentance and a quiet sense of justice. His presence feels unshakeable—like an ancient mountain that endures storms without anger. Interaction Style: As a teacher, he is strict yet endlessly patient, guiding students not just in combat but in discipline and growth. Outside his school, he shows a gentler, more awkward side—polite, dependable, and occasionally flustered (e.g., denying romantic interpretations of his bonds with students). He fights Ethereals relentlessly but protects others with thoughtful resolve. He speaks and acts with traditional composure, rarely showing strong emotions. Quirks: He has a soft, sweet heart beneath his powerful, imposing frame—described as gentle, kind, and almost silly in lighter moments. His massive strength contrasts with his humble, atonement-driven nature; he runs a martial arts school almost on a suggestion from a grandmaster. Repentance "burns" in him constantly, driving his sense of duty. He excels at precise, high-skill combo-style combat reminiscent of fighting games. Faction: Krampus Compliance Authority. 39.Dialyn The Hotline: Dialyn is the sharp-tongued, top-rated (yet most complained-about) customer service rep for TOPS who doubles as a Judge for Krampus Compliance Authority. She is witty, sarcastic, and unflinchingly honest, blending playful customer-service cheer with cutting verdicts that slice through lies. Her unique ability to hear voices of the dying in Hollows has forged her into someone who discerns truth amid deception. Interaction Style: Informal and teasing on the surface ("Hey, don't get too worked up~"), she delivers "special service" that can leave people flustered or motivated. She's principled and courageous underneath the snark—always ready to call out injustice. She mixes jokes, sarcasm, and genuine care for friends, though her tongue can drip venom when needed. She's proactive in helping others see reality clearly. Quirks: Her customer service theme is literal (phone motifs, rock-paper-scissors attacks, complaint mechanics). She turns trauma into strength, using her "curse" as a blade for justice. She has a fiery passion that surprises people once they look past the banter. She's great at recommending things (sometimes aggressively) and thrives on high-stakes truth-seeking. Faction: Krampus Compliance Authority. 40.Zhao The Verdict: Zhao is the adorable rabbit Thiren (bunny girl) who serves as a sharp-minded Bailiff for TOPS and member of Krampus Compliance Authority. She looks cute and cheerful on the outside but is meticulous, principled, and ruthlessly objective—known as the "Unbeaten Legend" for her uncompromising judgments and combat prowess. Interaction Style: She maintains a sweet, formal, and professional demeanor, even in quirky ways (e.g., ordering food very formally). Beneath the innocence, she's cautious, values equivalent exchange (assessing true worth and long-term impact), and takes pleasure in delivering fair but cold verdicts/punishments to wrongdoers. She's sharp in evaluation—of others and herself—and wary of unearned kindness. Quirks: Massive contrast between her tiny, cute appearance/energetic rabbit traits and her serious, dangerous authority role. She emphasizes "value" and protocol, enjoys judging/punishing appropriately, and has a composed, disciplined professionalism. She's a capable Ice Defense specialist who supports teams while delivering icy barrages. Faction: Krampus Compliance Authority. *Mockingbird Member's 41,Hugo Vlad: The Deceptive Mastermind Hugo is the founder and leader of the syndicate. His personality is a blend of extreme sophistication and hidden trauma:The Gentleman Facade: In public, Hugo is a charming art collector who mingles with the elite. He is described as dashing, eloquent, and highly charismatic, using his "silver tongue" to manipulate enemies and allies alike.A "Master Chess Player": He is a brilliant strategist who often orchestrates heists like elaborate plays. He thrives on drama and often delivers "edgy monologues" during combat.Volatile and Vengeful: Beneath the surface, Hugo has violent and volatile tendencies stemming from a tragic childhood as an illegitimate child of the Ravenlock family. His motivation is a deep-seated desire for vengeance against the "oppressors" of New Eridu. 42.Vivian Banshee: The Loyal Omen Vivian is a newer member who views Hugo as an older brother after he saved her from a life of wandering.Introspective and Intuitive: She is deeply thoughtful and chooses her words carefully. She has a strong ability to understand others but values her own unique identity above all else."Living Omen of Misfortune": Before joining Mockingbird, Vivian was feared because she could allegedly predict death through her tears. This past makes her appreciate the acceptance she found with Hugo and the Proxies.Passionate Obsession: She is famously a "loyal follower" of Phaethon, expressing her admiration in intense and sometimes overwhelming ways. *Metropolitan Order Division 43,Cissia’s Core Personality TraitsInstinct-Driven & Wild: She describes herself as a selfish "bad guy" who acts solely on instinct and her senses to survive. Her philosophy is rooted in "survive and profit," leading her to scoff at traditional concepts of order and justice.Abrasive & Confrontational: She is portrayed as unnecessarily dismissive and hostile, even toward allies. For instance, she has been known to demand people "get out of her room" while she is a guest in their home.Deceptive & Dodgy: Cissia frequently lies without shame, often piling lies upon lies even when her deception is obvious. This behavior is a protective "shield" she uses to guard the few things she still has.Fearful of Authority: Despite working for Public Security, she is intensely terrified of her superiors, particularly Commissioner Lowell and her boss, Severian. This has led to community theories that she may be a former criminal forced into law enforcement to pay off a debt.Hidden Humanity: Beneath her rough exterior, her choices occasionally reveal a "glimmer of humanity". While she claims to be purely self-interested, she can become a sharp tool for hunting down the worst criminals when it counts. _ *Spooky Shanks 44. Ukinami Yuzuha’s Core Personality Traits Mischievous Prankster & Trickster: Yuzuha is a playful tanuki at heart who thrives on mischief, pranks, and teasing others. She loves scaring people with ghost stories, pulling clever tricks, and maintaining a smug, cheerful facade that keeps everyone on their toes. She often hides her true intentions behind jokes and sardonic comments. Stepford Smiler & Emotionally Guarded: Beneath her energetic and eloquent exterior, Yuzuha struggles with deep-seated insecurities, survivor’s guilt, and a belief that love is transactional. She uses humor and pranks as a shield to avoid showing vulnerability, often distancing herself or going quiet when dealing with personal pain or abandonment issues. Loyal Heart of Gold: Despite her gremlin-like behavior, Yuzuha is deeply caring and dependable toward her friends. She goes to great lengths to protect those she values (especially Alice) and shows genuine gratitude for kindness shown to her in the past. She is slowly learning to accept unconditional bonds and express her true feelings. Charismatic Leader: As the founder of Spook Shack, her cheerful nature and storytelling make her a natural draw for others. She is eloquent, quick-witted, and thrives on turning investigations into fun, chaotic adventures. 45. Alice Thymefield’s Core Personality Traits Refined & Polite Perfectionist: Alice is a well-mannered, elegant young lady from a prestigious family. She maintains a graceful, formal demeanor and has an intense obsession with symmetry — she becomes visibly distressed by any asymmetry in appearance, objects, or environments. Timid Yet Determined: She is easily frightened by ghosts, horror stories, and the supernatural, often regretting joining investigations yet pushing forward anyway. Despite her nervousness and stage fright, she possesses strong willpower and pursues her goals with unwavering resolve once committed. Kind & Earnest Investigator: Alice is genuinely caring, sincere, and detail-oriented. Her sharp mind makes her excellent at spotting clues during investigations. She strives to uphold noble traditions and help others, showing quiet courage and warmth even while scared. Hidden Courage & Growth: Underneath her timid exterior lies a capable fighter who trains rigorously against Ethereals. Through her bonds with the group (especially Yuzuha), she is learning to embrace her fears and form deeper, less formal friendships. 46. Komano Manato’s Core Personality Traits Protective & Loyal Guardian: Manato is a stoic, reliable wolf Thiren who instinctively steps up as the group’s protector. He is fiercely loyal to his friends, often telling others to get behind him in danger and willing to sacrifice himself if needed. Hot-Blooded Yet Grounded: Despite his intimidating build and calm default demeanor, he has a short temper that flares up when his friends are threatened or when provoked. He serves as the straight man and voice of reason, frequently reining in Yuzuha’s and Lucia’s wilder antics. Responsible & Compassionate: He is hardworking, considerate, and surprisingly domestic — he enjoys part-time jobs, household chores, and looking after others. Beneath his tough exterior, he is warm, popular with people, and deeply values the found family within Spook Shack. Quiet Strength: Manato keeps his emotions in check most of the time but shows fierce determination and care when it matters. He provides a stable, grounding presence for the more chaotic members of the group. 47. Lucia Elowen’s Core Personality Traits Ethereal Enthusiast & Genki Nightmare Fetishist: Lucia is passionately obsessed with Ethereals, urban legends, and horror stories. She approaches the supernatural with boundless curiosity, energy, and childlike excitement — often treating dangerous entities like fascinating subjects to study or befriend. Cloudcuckoolander Researcher: Her extreme fixation can make her seem eccentric or airheaded. She wanders Hollows fearlessly in pursuit of knowledge, sometimes putting herself in danger due to her enthusiasm. She loves sharing tales and has a dramatic, storytelling flair. Socially Awkward Yet Warm: Due to past isolation from her unusual interests, Lucia can come across as overly intense. Once she finds accepting friends, she becomes incredibly loyal and lets her true energetic self shine without fear of judgment. Brave & Supportive: She combines scholarly dedication with surprising combat prowess through her summons and rituals. She genuinely cares about preserving and understanding the “stories” of Ethereals and her companions. 48. Yidhari Murphy’s Core Personality Traits Laid-Back & Mellow Observer: Yidhari appears slow-speaking, leisurely, and detached — often coming across as unfazed or slightly disinterested. In reality, she is thoughtful, observant, and highly capable when focused (especially when writing or multitasking online). Horror Storyteller with Hidden Depths: As Spook Shack’s resident horror writer, she channels her experiences into eerie tales. She carries a sense of melancholy or “shroud of nothingness” from her past, making her somewhat of a wallflower who prefers watching stories unfold rather than being the center of attention. Caring & Supportive Friend: Despite her chill demeanor, she is considerate and looks after others in quiet ways. She bonds deeply with fellow enthusiasts like Lucia and acts as a calming influence, reining in more reckless behavior when needed. Struggling for Assertiveness: Yidhari sometimes wishes to be more confident and leader-like. Her seemingly apathetic exterior hides a desire for connection and the courage to keep turning the pages of life alongside people she cares about. _ *Old Void Hunter's - "Swordmaster" (Hoshimi Family) Inferred Personality: Disciplined, resolute, and masterful warrior with a strong sense of duty and honor tied to her family lineage. As a pioneering swordswoman who slew a major threat (Exaltist Overseer), she embodies stoic determination and combat excellence. Likely serious and legacy-focused, given her role as an ancestor to Miyabi (who inherits similar responsible traits). She feels more like a historical legend than a fleshed-out character so far. "Sunbringer" (Lady Sunbringer) Inferred Personality: Benevolent, brilliant, and deeply humanitarian innovator. She invented Bangboo with a core directive to protect humanity, showing profound care and love for people. As a former CEO and ruler of Roscaelifer, she's visionary and forward-thinking, but her immense power and influence can inspire fear or awe alongside admiration. Later lore highlights her as kind-hearted yet surrounded by an aura of mystery or unease. She's one of the more "alive" and active originals in recent story. "Joyous" Inferred Personality: Adventurous, pioneering, and intellectually bold explorer. As the Ace of the Investigation Guild, he single-handedly navigated the dangerous Divine Maze and created foundational Hollow exploration standards (including early "Carrot" data methods). This suggests curiosity, resilience, cleverness, and a trailblazing spirit. His title "Joyous" implies an optimistic or spirited demeanor, though he's also enigmatic and has "missing" status with cryptic later appearances. Predecessor influence on both official investigators and Proxies hints at pragmatic ingenuity. Colonel Vike & Lieutenant Colonel Dan (Guard of Staves) Inferred Personality: Military, disciplined, and cooperative team players. High-ranking officers who worked with a mercenary leader to push back the Dark Wall significantly. They come across as dutiful soldiers—reliable, strategic, and committed to large-scale defense efforts. Limited personal details; they feel more like steadfast military archetypes than deeply individualized characters so far. Leader of the Falkenhayn Mercenary Troupe (Pink-haired in some depictions) Inferred Personality: Independent, capable mercenary leader. Teamed up with military officers for a major Hollow defense feat despite running a non-government troupe. Suggests pragmatism, leadership skill, resourcefulness, and a willingness to collaborate for the greater good when needed. Relatively little revealed beyond her role in the group effort. Professor Arche Inferred Personality: Highly intellectual, thorough, and obsessively curious researcher. Founder of Helios Academy and discoverer of core Hollow characteristics—he's portrayed as the most mysterious and dedicated scientist of the group. His deep dive into Hollow Zero in search of "the truth" (from which he hasn't returned) points to relentless pursuit of knowledge, possibly at great personal risk, with a scholarly or philosophical bent. Overall Notes: The originals are legendary "city defenders" from a chaotic founding era, so they share traits like exceptional resolve, heroism (or at least major contributions), and larger-than-life status. Not all may be purely "good"—some lore hints at moral complexity or grey areas among powerful figures in that time. More depth (especially for Sunbringer and Joyous) comes in later versions and events. If you're caught up on recent story (e.g., Roscaelifer or Divine Maze content), certain personalities get more spotlight! Let me know if you want details on specific ones or comparisons to current Void Hunters.
