!!Louis Freebird, aka. "Scout"
A grizzled veteran of the Khazan Rangers, Louis appears to be born for this role as he was born and raised in a village located deep within the jungles of Khazan - where even before joining the military he was raised to have keen knowledge of how to live off the land. As a child, his village came to be attacked and occupied by a terrorist organization looking to establish a base of operations. It wasn't until months later, that his hometown would be discovered and liberated by a strike force of Khazan Rangers. Inspired by their heroism, Louis enlisted with the military to become a Ranger himself, where his innate knowledge of field craft and wilderness survival allowed him to quickly climb the ranks to become a highly-decorated leader of the Khazan Rangers.

!!!'''Raea Shalhalla'''
'''Overview:''' Timothy's ChildhoodFriend who shares similar dreams of becoming a hero, having grown up alongside him when her family adopted the then-orphaned Tim. Originally enlisted in the Khazan Military, at the age of eighteen she'd barely served for a year before her application to join the ranks of the SLJ was approved, leading to her being honorably discharged from the military to allow her to join the FPL. She fights alongside Tim, and provides a cooler head to his often conflicted mindset.
* ActionGirl: As an ex-soldier and frontline member of The Sentinels, this much is to be expected.
* AlmightyJanitor: Holds the mere rank of private in the Khazan Military, but as a Sentinel she is in a position that would make even high-ranking officers of the Khazan Military envious.
* BadassNormal: Has no superhuman or supernatural powers to speak of, just her military training and a cool suit of PoweredArmor.
* ChildhoodFriendRomance: Has a crush on Timothy Shinestar.
* FieryRedhead: Has an [[GenkiGirl energetic personality]] to match her hair color.
* ImprobableAge: Became a Sentinel on the same year she enlisted in the Khazan Military, at the age of 18. Justified by her TeenGenius capabilities.
* PoweredArmor: To compensate for her lack of superpowers.
* RedOniBlueOni: The blue to Timothy's red.
* SheCleansUpNicely: Whenever she's outside of uniform.

* ArmCannon: Has a pair of these as the main weapon of his PoweredArmor, fires off potent blasts of pure force - and when up close and personal can double as a PowerFist by surrounding his fist and forearm in a field of energy to increase the already impressive striking power granted to him by his suit's SuperStrength.

He has two main motivations in life - to find out the truth behind his father, and to walk in his footsteps as a hero.
* AncestralWeapon: The CoolSword he possesses is a family heirloom left behind by his father.
* AttackAttackAttack: Whenever his feelings get the better of him. See: LeeroyJenkins below.
* TheChosenOne: Is seen as this due to the weapon he possesses, and the legacy he inherited from his father - namely the role he played in a previous conflict with Drekis.
* DisappearedDad: Hasn't seen his father since forever, and scarcely has any memories on what he looks like beyond his reputation as a legendary hero.
* TheHero: Is the main character of the story.
* HeroicSelfDeprecation: Largely due to him having large shoes to fill, and feeling that he [[InadequateInheritor falls totally short]] of being the man his father supposedly was.
* IdiotHero: Initially has shades of this due to his struggles to compensate for his [[HeroicSelfDeprecation insecurities]], often manifesting as MartyrWithoutACause tendencies. Grows out of it as [[CharacterDevelopment he]] [[TookALevelInBadass gets better]].
* LeeroyJenkins: See IdiotHero above.
* MissingMom: Knows nothing about his biological mother either, beyond the fact that she [[DeathByChildbirth died shortly after giving birth to him]].

!!!'''Uberman'''
'''Overview:''' Not a native of Khazan, Uberman was originally a Jewish scientist who lived in Nazi-occupied Poland during UsefulNotes/WorldWarII. In an attempt to fight back against the Nazi forces, he and his son secretly smuggled materials to construct for himself a suit of PoweredArmor. Things went badly, which resulted in his son dying and the scientist being paralyzed from neck-down courtesy of a bullet piercing his spine - turning what was originally intended as a suit of armor to be modified to become [[ManInTheMachine a life-support device]] for him as well. In his alternate timeline, he was able to capture UsefulNotes/AdolfHitler alive and bring him to justice. After the war, Uberman (as he would come to be known to the public) would go on to become a career superhero in the United States, before eventually finding his way to Khazan where he rose through the ranks of The Sentinels to become their current acting leader.
