In addition to the canon characters, this story features the following:
[[foldercontrol]]
[[folder: American Division Agents]]
These men (and one woman) are members of a special section of the North American Mages' Alliance, which itself was forged in the early years of the 20th century to stop the infighting that had plagued the various mage associations of North America. The section these agents belong to is responsible for swiftly undergoing dangerous magic-related violence suppression missions all over the world, from taking care of rogue mages to providing security at treaty signings to missions as simple as investigating suspicious behavior.
!General Tropes Relating To All Members
* CombatPragmatist: They all show varying levels of this.
!Max Linell
He is the big, scary, ugly lead [[OriginalCharacter oc]] of Still Waters 1. Easily misunderstood, his initial appearance leaves those he meets with the wrong impression, but when he finally meets up with his quarry...
* BigBrotherMentor: He plays a role like this for Akira.
* BrokenBird: A rare male example.
* CoolSword: He collects them; his most commonly used is a greatsword almost as long as he is tall.
* CoveredInScars: He is covered in scars from years and years of dangerous, near suicidal missions as revealed during Yuuna's [[{{Fireballs}} fireball]] attack on him in Chapter 16. May invoke a little FridgeBrilliance when you realize that he's always wearing long sleeved shirts or light jackets, even in the middle of summer.
* DeathGlare: His default expression when he's annoyed or deep in thought.
* FaceOfAThug
* FishOutOfWater: Max is clearly one of these from the very first chapter.
* GutturalGrowler: His voice is deep and very rough sounding.
* MisunderstoodLonerWithAHeartOfGold: Comes across as extremely creepy in the first chapter; it isn't until people talk with him that the truth comes out.
* PlayingWithFire: Max's elemental ability
!Oscar Marshall
The man in charge; he leads the section Max and the others belong to. What is his interest in Akira...?
* [[spoiler:CruelAndUnusualDeath]]: And how! [[spoiler: Having the water sucked from your body would be a horrible way to die]].
* FatBastard
* GreenThumb: He uses plant magic.
* KickTheDog: It starts when he [[spoiler: slaps Akira for not being comfortable with him invading her personal space]] and goes on from there.
* TentacleRope: Via vines and roots.
* WouldHitAGirl
!Marlin
The leader of the group sent to find out what's taking Max so long to finish his mission. A skilled veteran, he has been all over the world, surviving dangerous missions of all sorts. An old friend of Max, he feels he is starting to get too old for field missions.
* BadassNormal: He is considered to be this in-story, though he doesn't get a chance to show off.
* CoolShades: He wears a pair of sunglasses everywhere, even inside, and rarely ever takes them off.
* GameBreakingInjury: He suffered one that leaves him a shadow of his former self relatively early in the story at the hands of [[spoiler: Max and Akira]].
!Guy Sculler
One of the few remaining original members of the group, he grew alongside fellow orphan Max and always viewed him as his rival.
* BadassLongcoat: He is one of the few in the series capable of pulling this off.
* BlowYouAway: Guy's elemental ability
* CantCatchUp: Compared to Max, a fellow agent whom he considers his rival.
* TheDragon: To Oscar Marshall. The main reason he's doing this is to get a chance to fight Max.
* {{Flight}}: One of his skills as an air elemental.
* FragileSpeedster
* OhCrap: Guy's reaction when Eva finally shows up.
* TheResenter: He was always jealous of Max's skills and power, made even worse by the fact that Rikki always liked Max more than him. Everything comes to a head in chapter 20.
* [[WhiteHairedPrettyBoy Silver Haired Pretty Boy]]: He resembles Dante from DevilMayCry.
!Nilren Riggs
Hacker, information gatherer, and general NonActionGuy of the group; he provides the others with the information they need to move ahead with their plans.
* PlayfulHacker
* TheSmartGuy: He handles strategy and planning for the group.
!Arvel
Somewhat AxCrazy member of the group, he just likes to make things burn.
* BadassLongcoat: Deconstructed (it's inconvenient, refuses to properly billow in the wind, threatens to tangle around his legs from time to time, and receives at least one bullet hole), Invoked (he wears it because he thinks it makes him look like the badass he wants to be), and Discussed by characters in-story. Arvel's ability to wear a longcoat is a pale imitation of Guy's even though his is much more expensive and arguably of higher quality, but it tends to come across more as 'ridiculous' than 'badass' when he wears it.
* FlamingSword: In his case, a sword made of fire.
* GreenThumb: He uses plant-based magic in addition to fire magic.
* [[KickTheDog Kick The Teacher]]: He knocks down Nijuin (the fat mage teacher) in front of his daughter, cusses at the cute little girl when she tries to get him to stop, and kicks the fallen teacher in the stomach as he tries to crawl between them. It is only the arrival of Guy that stops the situation from escalating into something worse.
* PlayingWithFire: He prefers fire magic because it's easy to blow things up.
* PyroManiac
* SmugSnake: Egotistic, arrogant, and, perhaps unusually for this trope, quite strong.
* TooDumbToLive: At one point, he makes a comment about wanting to fight '''''Eva'''''.
