!!Kyoma Mononobe/Solomon
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mononobe_tokyoafterschoolsummoners.png]]
[[caption-width-right:300:''Homeroom Teacher'']]
[[caption-width-right:300:[[labelnote:Click here to see his true form]]https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mononobe_solomon_tokyoafterschoolsummoners.jpg[[/labelnote]]]]

The protagonist's homeroom teacher who helps them adjust to their new life at Tokyo and provides them counseling whenever needed. In truth, he is a Transient and the Wise King Solomon, having been trying to save the protagonist from the Representatives since the very beginning.

* AbsoluteCleavage: Curiously enough, he doesn't button up his shirt properly, despite being one of the more level-headed characters.
* CarpetOfVirility: Has light amount of hair on his chest.
* CloserToEarth: When compared to his co-workers Jin and Triton.
* DarkSkinnedBlond: In his true form as King Solomon, Mononobe has white hair and a tanned complexion.
* {{Expy}}: Of Dr. Romani Archaman from ''VideoGame/FateGrandOrder''. A self-sacrificing mentor and counselor who is heavily connected to King Solomon and the tenth ring? ''Check.''
** Even his true form as King Solomon heavily resembles his Fate/Grand Order counterpart's. Both versions of Solomon wear predominately white and red robes complimented by gold accessories, tanned skin, and [[MysticalWhiteHair white hair]] that gives off a sense of sagely wisdom.
* HeroicSacrifice: Sadly, despite the protagonist's best efforts to save them from [[CessationOfExistence disappearing forever]], Kyoma ultimately does so willingly to ensure the protagonist can have a chance to end the cycles at the end of Chapter 11.
* KingIncognito: As all the clues in this entry point out, his true identity is King Solomon, the Exception of All.
* MeaningfulName: The kanji of "Kyo"(匡) has a radical of "King" (王) inside it, foreshadowing his true identity.
* MulticoloredHair: Black with white streak, signifying his growing age. In his true form as King Solomon, his hair and brows are pure white.
* MysticalWhiteHair Has pure white hair in his King Solomon form.
* OddNameOut: His given name is written with kanji instead of katakana like everyone else. Presumably, to hide the fact that he is also one of the participants in the game.
* OlderThanTheyLook: According to himself to the protagonist, the middle-aged man appearance is not even close to his true age. Considering how many loops it has been and how much memories his had accumulated to the point that his soul risks vanishing the moment this loop comes to pass, this is a telling.
* PowerTattoo: A hexagonal star on the back of his right hand. The same sort the Protagonist has, in fact.
* RetGone: As revealed by Mahakala, this will be his fate the moment that this loop comes to pass, due to him giving away his Sacred Artifact and its power for the protagonist's sake and his own body wearing down from the memories of the past loops. The protagonist vows to not let this happen, but sadly, it happens anyways.
* StepfordSmiler: It is revealed in Chapter 11 that he is full of grief for having to witness the protagonist dying again and again without them having ever graduated from Shinjuku Academy even once, and wants for them to finally survive to the end in this last loop even with him having to pay the price with his own existence.
* WalkingSpoiler: It's really hard to talk about him due to how he's connected to the heavy portion of the game's mystery.
* WhamShot:
** Is revealed to be an App User himself at the end of Chapter 8, as well as having an unknown relation with Salomon (who calls him "Father").
** The fact that his crest's shape is hexagram, as in Star of David or Seal of Solomon.
** Chapter 11 spoils his true identity as King Solomon.

[[folder:Jinn]]

[[caption-width-right:350:''Hot-Blooded Teacher'']]
!!!'''Voiced by''': Creator/KentaroIto

He is a smoke genie Transient who works at Shinjuku Academy as the assistant teacher of your class. He wears a tracksuit and carries around a bamboo sword to discipline students. He is usually carefree and allows his students freedom of spirit as well. His fellow teacher, Mr. Triton, is very particular about the school rules so they don't get along. On the other hand, he sees Mr. Mononobe as the ideal teacher.

Despite appearing early on in the story, he has only been released as a playable unit with the Seaside School Event in 2017.

* CoolTeacher: In opposition to his counterpart.
* PlayingWithFire: His in-game element.
* RedOniBlueOni: Red to Triton's Blue. Doubles as ColorCodedForYourConvenience.

[[caption-width-right:350:''Keep Clam and Teach'']]
!!!'''Voiced by''': Creator/ToshiyukiMorikawa

A teacher of Shinjuku Academy where the protagonist and friends attend. He loves his students and is constantly competing with his colleague Jinn to see who is the better teacher. In contrast to Jinn, who has a dynamic personality and takes a laid back approach with students, Triton is of a serious nature and is quite strict with rules. A merman, and thus good in aquatic environments, he also acts as advisor to the water polo and swim teams. His affinity for all places wet often leads to him sleeping overnight in the bathroom of the RA room at the academy. Triton harbors a deep respect for Mr. Mononobe, another colleague of his.

Despite appearing early on in the story, he has only been released as a playable unit with the Remote Island Expedition Event in 2017.

* ApparentlyHumanMerfolk: Apart from the fins growing on his arms, he does not have a lot of typical merman traits.
* LiteralSplitPersonality:[[spoiler: In the Remote Island Expedition Event, Dagon reveals that Triton was this, originally being [[IHaveManyNames just one of his many names]], until the people that worshipped him eventually split him and Triton into 2 beings, causing him to lose his power and his Role of the All-Father to Triton. Dagon's goal in the event is to manipulate [[FusionDance Triton into becoming one with him again]] to re-obtain the power he lost in the split.]]

[[folder:Kirito]]
!!Kirito
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kirito_3star_full.png]]
[[caption-width-right:350:''Local Assassin'']]
!!!'''Voiced by''':

A member of a small criminal group that lurks around Ikebukuro and is mainly active in the Ikebukuro underground. He would bury his knife all the way into a human body without a sliver of hesitation. To him, any and all human contact is nothing more than a means for survival... At least, until he meets a certain man...

Despite his numerous appearances he is one of the few recurring characters who has not been released as a playable unit yet.

* TheBusCameBack: The end of Chapter 11 reveals he has allied himself with the Warmongers and have been given his own squad of mecha troopers to aid him.
* ChronicBackstabbingDisorder: [[JustForPun Obvious quip aside]], boy does he have a case of this! He's never shown a willingness to resist the urge and likely always plans this as the [[ForTheEvulz end game for all his clients and associates.]]
** In chapter 3, he makes his escape the moment Oniwaka and Kengo create an Exception, while making it clear how much he enjoys Oniwaka's agony from his Rule overloading.
** It's taken to horrifying levels in chapter 8. [[spoiler: In a show of heinous irony, he manipulated a vindictive little girl, whose parents had just been killed in the chaos caused by the Genociders, into an attempt on Babalon's life after actively aiding Babalon and the rest of the Genociders throughout the chapter in order to create the situation in the first place. While Arc managed to shield Babalon from the attack, it cost them their life (though Shiro was able to revive Arc later). Despite that, Kirito was still pleased with himself as he got to see Babalon suffer from once again losing a child she cared about before he quickly made his escape.]]
* ForTheEvulz: A lot of what he does seems to stem from a sadistic desire to make others suffer and/or to make them give in to their worse impulses. [[spoiler: This is evident in chapter 8 when he lent one of his knives to a little girl whose parents had just been killed by the Exceptions, and told her Babalon was responsible for everything in order to convince her to murder the woman who welcomed him in open arms and treated him like he was her own child.]]
* HalfHeartedHenchman: He appears in several chapters, always as a contractor of the current villain, but is usually not interested in their goals.
* KarmaHoudini: He has yet to face any real consequences for his heinous actions.
* KnifeNut: His [[WeaponOfChoice artifact]], inherited from UsefulNotes/JackTheRipper.
* JerkAss: He's rude to almost everyone he meets and will not hesitate to either betray or abandon them if things go south for him.
* JerkAssHasAPoint: Despite also being guilty of the events in Chapter 8, he was right to point out to the little girl he gave the knife to that Babalon, Arc, and the other Genociders are responsible for her parent's death.
* OminousFog: Kirito can generate a concealing fog at will to mask his presence, allowing him to fade into the shadows to either ambush his enemies or to make a quick escape.
* ParentalAbandonment: Implied. Has no relations to anyone as of yet and instead calls Babalon his "Unlovable Mother".
* PsychoticSmirk: Often sports this when things get bad for his victims.
* RecurringBoss: Appears as an enemy in several chapters.
* SerialKiller: If his artifact didn't already tip you off, the mutilated body found in chapter 3 is implied to have been his work. Unlike many other characters who inherited their artifacts from infamous historical figures, such as Claude and Licht, who inherited their artifacts from Emperor Nero and Hitler respectively, Kirito seems to enjoy following the footsteps of his predecessor all too willingly and naturally.

[[folder:Christine]]
!!Christine
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/christine_3star_full.png]]
[[caption-width-right:350:''Starring Lady of Yurakucho'']]
!!!'''Voiced by''': Creator/NaokoMatsui

A high school actress with a thousand faces, belonging to the Yurakucho Entertainers. Each of the multicolored masks of her Sacred Artifact contains a different person's memories, the Rule contained therein allowing her to [[MasterActor re-enact any performance, no matter the circumstances]]. When playing a role, she exudes a strong stage presence, but beneath the mask lies her true face: detached, ephemeral. She was born for the fantasy of festivals, and illuminates the fictional stage of the App with brilliant, showy color. She has vowed to devote herself to her first, true fan.

* BewareTheSillyOnes: A beautiful young woman dressed for a performance at the opera, who could also easily go umbrella to sword with someone like Toji without breaking a sweat. She’s also great friends and presumably guild-mates with [[EldritchAbomination Nyarl]]. The two even have affectionate names for one another.
* CharacterNarrator: Acts as one during the ''Desert Journey'' event.
* HighClassGloves: Lacy and with a matching rose on the top wrist too.
* ItAmusedMe: From what limited screentime she has had so far, it seems her and her guild's only real intention is to provide entertainment to the people using the App.
* MaskOfPower: Implied to be her sacred artifact.
* MysteriousWaif: Has kept a relatively low profile in the game. Time will tell what impact she will have on the story.
* ParasolOfPain: A ParasolOfPrettiness that can match the strength of Toji's two ancestral demon-slaying swords with no trouble.
* PerpetualSmiler: Rarely seen without a pleasant smile upon her face.
* SelfDuplication: [[spoiler: Jiangshi Night event revealed that she can do this, as she split herself into three copies to stir up trouble at various locations during the event as per her assignment.]]
* VoluntaryShapeshifting: Highly implied from her conversation with fellow shapeshifter Nyarl, as to what the purpose of her masks are for or at least a side effect of her powers.
* WildCard: Her troupe has kept out of the affairs involving the other guilds so far, only observing and keeping their distance. She has neither supported nor hindered anyone, however she is also not above using the chaotic circumstances as distraction for her own goals.

[[folder:Musashi]]
!!Musashi
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/musashi_3.png]]
[[caption-width-right:350:''Boy Bodyguard'']]
!!!'''Voiced by''': Creator/YumikoKobayashi

A young boy carrying five sword Sacred Artifacts, one for each element, from which he has withdrawn memories. At times he is a swordsman, at others a tactician, calligrapher, educator, or a wanderer who rejects the very world. The memories of all five beings are known collectively as the legendary Demon Swordsman of the Land of Wa. After a certain accident renders the boy unconscious, the memories control his sleeping body in turns. Wishing to fight against strong sword wielders, he throws himself into App battles with the ferocity of a rogue samurai. He has traumatic memories of being washed away, and so runs away from baths at full speed.

* KatanasAreJustBetter: Wields five of them at once as his WeaponOfChoice.
* {{Ronin}}: He is based on the legendary wandering swordmaster, Miyamoto Musashi.
* SplitPersonalityTeam: The memories of five distinct beings are housing in the body of this little boy, but they seem to work well together. Whoever is the dominant entity changes according to the situation.
* SymbioticPossession: Of a sort. The details remain unclear, but the different entities are "borrowing" the body of a teenage boy and work for money as a sort of compensation to him, should they ever leave his body.

[[folder:Barguest]]
!!Barguest
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fg_barguest01.png]]
[[caption-width-right:350:''The Forsaken Beast'']]
!!!'''Voiced by''': Josuke Shinomiya

A mountain spirit Transient incarnated in the shape of a bear. Due to unforeseen circumstances, he lost his Summoner. He currently belongs to the Arakawa Guild among other Stray Transients who have gathered in self-defense. In order to earn their keep, they do the dirty work commissioned by the Roppongi Guild. He cares deeply for his friends and holds good will toward anyone who would show compassion toward his friends.

* BearsAreBadNews: A large bear who attracts misfortune wherever he goes. It's not that he himself is a dangerous or bad person, it's just his bad luck.
* ButtMonkey:
** By extension of being a bad luck magnet, this poor bear ''cannot'' catch a break. He's been shot at, attacked by wyverns, and that's just to name a ''few'' of the things that have been inflicted on him!
** Played for laughs in Valentine's Timeslip, he is [[RunningGag repeatedly]] whacked in the face by the same branch every time he wakes up from a time reset.
* HatesBeingTouched: During the Black Snow on the Hot Spring Mountains event, Barguest repeatedly blocks Ashigara from patting his shoulder, citing that he doesn't want his bad luck to rub off on Ashigara even though they're friendly towards one another.
* TheJinx: Quite literally! His Sacred Artifact, the chains that adorn his body, attract ill will and bad luck.
* PapaWolf: Deeply protective of Kenta, who is essentially his surrogate child.
* SelfDeprecation: It rather hard to think positively when you're a living bad luck magnet and unending source of slapstick comedy.
* StoneWall:
** How he is played as a unit, as he can give himself the Regeneration, Tenacity, and Guts buffs while also crippling his enemies' CP gain and lowering their ATK stat.
** His Valentine's Timeslip event variant performs this role even better than his standard form as he has access to most of the above-mentioned buffs with the addition of the Protection buff for added defense and [[DrawAggro Taunt]] to better protect his team and make full use of all his defensive buffs.

[[folder:Algernon]]
!!Algernon
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fg_algernon01.png]]
[[caption-width-right:350:''Cyborg Cleaner'']]
!!!'''Voiced by''': Creator/KenyuuHoriuchi and Creator/RumiOokubo

A cyborg Transient from the world of Utopia, he was originally human, but has been modified and upgraded from the brain out. The name Algernon refers to both the Helmet he wears, which is actually his Sacred Artifact, and the name of his partner and manager; the cyborg himself is deeply mistrustful of others and has confided his real name to no one other than his partner. He despises dirt and disorder, and takes an active role in keeping his school clean and tidy. Outside of school, he moonlights as a very discriminating assassin for hire, only accepting jobs that contribute to keeping Tokyo's streets clean of garbage in an entirely different way.

* BareYourMidriff: Despite wearing a fully functioning suit of armor, Algernon's abdominals are conspicuously ExposedToTheElements.
* BoomStick: They can turn their broom into some-kind of rocket blaster by re-configuring their armor around the broom head.
* CleanupCrew:[[spoiler: It's implied that they not only eliminate their targets but also clean up the resulting crime scene and [[DisposingOfABody disposes]] of their victims' bodies.]]
* ConsummateProfessional: If you hire them, you can be sure that they will fulfill their assignments to the letter.
* DeadlyEuphemism: Besides their janitorial work at school, Algernon also "cleans up" [[spoiler:the streets of targets they receive from their job as a mercenary after school.]]
* DoNotCallMePaul: Charles hates when other people know and call him by his old name.[[spoiler: The fact that he tells the protagonist his human name in his character quest goes to show just how much he grows to trust and like them.]]
* FlyingBroomstick: Well, how else are you suppose to use a [[RuleOfCool rocket-powered broomstick?]]
* {{Keet}}: The AI unit, Algernon, is noticeably more up-beat and talkative than their human host.
* LuminescentBlush: Their helmet can stimulate a blush response and it's so adorable. This is usually the result of Charles reacting to something unexpected or cute the protagonist does for or with them.
* NamedAfterSomebodyFamous: During the "Osechi, the Mouse and the Sweeper" event, Algernon states that they were named after the famous British poet, Charles Algernon Swinburne.
* NeatFreak: As revealed in the "Virtual Summer Memory" event, Charles can only relax by cleaning! Algernon tells the party, particularly Otohime, it's better to leave him be.
* PowerAtAPrice: [[spoiler: The operation that gave them their accelerated intellect and higher bodily function is also gradually eating away at them. The primary symptom of this [[PowerDegeneration burn out]] is memory loss.]]
* PowerDegeneration: [[spoiler: Their power is killing them, but they also don't want to go back to who they were. It's implied that the [[LaserGuidedAmnesia memory loss]] they experience at times are only the beginning something much worse!]]
* SempaiKouhai: They are apparently our senior at Shinjuku Academy.
* ScarfOfAsskicking: Algernon has your stock oversized tattered scarf, and of course it's caught in a DramaticWind.
* ShipperOnDeck: Algernon consistently tries to get Charles to be honest with their feelings for the protagonist and seems dead-set on trying to get the two together.
* SnarkyNonHumanSidekick: The AI portion of Algernon speaks more often than the human side of the equation, often to tease the human inside the suit in good nature.
* SuperiorSuccessor: They are apparently this to Nomad, as they are from the same experimental line as the tiger detective, but possess far greater acceleration and actual time-hopping powers.
* TimeTravel: Possesses this ability, as all things made from Utopia are. [[spoiler: This is how he able to deal with Azathoth. Continuous use of this power is also slowly killing them.]]
* WeWillWearArmorInTheFuture: Algernon is a hero from Utopia, a science fiction-themed world. As an apparent mercenary, he wears some pretty neat armor...ab window notwithstanding.

[[folder:Breke]]
!!Breke
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fg_breke01.png]]
[[caption-width-right:350:''Amnesiac Werewolf'']]
!!!'''Voiced By''': Creator/MasatoUshiki

Existing somewhere between the lines of human, wolf, and machine, Breke is all of the above, yet not quite any of them at the same time. Much like the Protagonist, Breke arrived in Tokyo with no memories of his life before. Equipped with nothing more than a suit of nanomachines and voices that hint at foreboding possibilities, Breke is trying to navigate the mysterious purpose for his being in Tokyo.

* AbilityMixing: His ability to [[PowerCopying use the abilities of other artifacts]] seems to be based on Freki's Rule that allowed him to "consume what was left behind" and Huginn and Muginn's ability to access and translate the memories and personality of the artifact's previous owner.
* AcePilot: His Nightglow variant depicts him driving a high tech spaceship. His bio also mentions that due to being a machine that adapts to "past legacies" flying a space fighter is simple.
* ConditionalPowers: His ability to temporarily use the powers of the artifacts of others requires that he [[ShapeShifting assumes the form of that artifact's previous owner]] and, also, [[BecomingTheMask assume their personality while in use]]. On top of that, it's implied that as a result of it being tied to Freki's Rule, he can only tap into the artifacts of Transients that have completed their Roles.
* CyberneticMythicalBeast: An odd example, Breke is the fusion of Huginn, Muninn and Freki, 3 of Odins familiars.
* EasyAmnesia: Breke is introduced into the story suffering retrograde amnesia. There seems to be bits and pieces of his past life that have surfaced, though much remains unclear.
* HearingVoices: It isn't long at all after his introduction that Breke begins hearing voices in his head. For the most part they seem to be providing hints about his past and providing guidance for him. It's later revealed that it belongs to Huginn, who has been integrated into Breke along with Muginn as a support unit for his nanomachines.
* LimitedWardrobe: He currently has three skins in the game. His initial skintight suit, that same suit but with the front open... and the same suit but semi materialized.
* MeaningfulName: His name is short for "B-Type Freke". [[spoiler: Curren named him this because he's the ' "Plan B" of the True Guilds, being the opposite of the Protagonist they can use as a replacement for the World Representatives if any of them start to break away from their intended roles in the Game or end up fulfilling their wish that kept them in Tokyo.]]
* PlayingWithFire: His Nightglow variant has the fire attribute. Interestingly though he fights with a laser.
* QuestForIdentity: After getting out of the jam he initially finds himself in, it appears Breke has decided to take on this particular mission.
* ReforgedIntoAMinion: A three-fer. It's revealed he was originally Freki, one of Odin's wolves, who was captured by Utopia along with the missing Huginn and Muginn, who were converted into a robot body and its support units for their Artifact, respectively.
* {{Shapeshifting}}: What his nanomachines, which his 4-star states is his Sacred Artifact, allow him to do. This not only gives him the ability to look like others, but also gives him the ability to duplicate the weapons of others, as seen when he generates a copy of the Protagonist's Boundless Tail sword to fend off some attacking robots. [[PowerCopying It's also the source of his ability to utilize the abilities of other's Sacred Artifacts.]]
* SoulJar: Inverted, as while it's not their actual souls, the Thought Unit reveals that Breke is composed of the memories, thoughts, and physical appearances of Transients who have completed their Roles. This includes [[spoiler: Babalon, Surtur, and Azathoth]], though it mentions they were the last to be uploaded before Breke was activated. [[spoiler: Tezcatlipoca is added to his archive at the end of Chapter 10.]]
* SpyCatsuit: The outfit Breke wears is made of nanomachines, and since it appears that he has some relation to combat fields of work, of course it defaults to a rather form-fitting catsuit. And since this is Tokyo Afterschool Summoners, the {{Stripperific}} crotch zipper is almost expected at this point.
* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: He's one to the Protagonist. He's an amnesiac who first manifests in a park, initially has no other memories other than his name, gets attacked by a random Transient mob and has to be saved by a mysterious stranger (This time, it's you, the Protagonist), and manifests a Sword artifact to save the person who just saved him. He's even composed of multiple beings, just like the Protagonist. [[spoiler: It's {{justified}}, as Curren and the other two Geniuses that act as the guildmasters of the three True Guilds explicitly built him to take on the Sacred Artifacts of the World Representatives if they began to fail in their roles for the Game or end up dead or desummoned. This means Breke is the vessel for the 23 World Representatives, just like how the Protagonist is the Vessel for the Exiles of the 23 Worlds]]
* UndyingLoyalty: Has this to the protagonist for saving their life as soon as Breke was summoned. This was so impactful to him that he immediately adopted a mindset similar to the protagonists. And whenever he finds the protag in trouble he'll be sure to jump into the fray, even if his power prevents him from being recognised.
* WolfMan: Breke has the anthropomorphic appearance of a wolf.

!!!'''Voiced By''': Creator/JunFukuyama

A third-year student at Shinjuku Academy who can usually be found working as a librarian in the old building behind the school. As an avid bookworm with a particular interest in older texts, he himself proposed that he take charge of the school library, and since nobody else is enough of an eccentric to join him, he spends most of his time after class alone in his forest of dusty tomes. He entertains a wide range of solitary hobbies, including an interest in cooking, and is often seen carrying handmade sandwiches and other easy-to-eat foods into the library to enjoy while he reads. Although embarrassed to admit it, he also has a great passion for writing poetry, and maintains a deep respect for artists and creators whose genius went unrecognized by those around them. He is very close to a certain teacher responsible for the old school building.

* TheFatalist: Thanks to his Sacred Artifact, he ''knows'' how things are going to go. This hasn't led to him having a sunny disposition.
* TomesOfProphecyAndFate: His Sacred Artifact is the Book of Prophecies written by [[{{UsefulNotes/Nostradamus}} Nostradamus]]

[[caption-width-right:350:''Light Archer'']]
!!!'''Voiced by''': Creator/MasatoYoshida

A gentle high school student and archery club member, accompanied by the cherubim Cupid. He has a soul that overlaps with a god existing within one of the parallel gate worlds, and the godly energy crosses that barrier, welling up in him. But if this extraordinary power accumulates too much in his ordinary human body it could destroy not only him, but Tokyo itself. Having taken a liking to Shinya, Cupid helps him out by periodically releasing this overflowing power in the form of light arrows. There is, unfortunately, the stipulation that the arrows cannot be fired aimlessly and must hit someone.

[[spoiler:He and his familiar Cupid are also the substitute Representative of Olympus in place of Zeus, since to the latter is unable to take part in the game because of Perun's existence.]]

* BalanceBuff:
** His Soul Shooter skill grants the Arousal buff to allies up to 2 squares in front of him.
** His upgraded version of Starshine, Starshine+, boosts its activation rate from 70% to 100%, ensuring that the Glint buff will pass around to his allies.
* BlessedWithSuck: Has a power some teenagers would kill for, but is deeply troubled by using it, and will die and take the rest of the city with him if he doesn't.
* CharmPerson: One of the application of his power is to have Cupid fire Arrows of Love to someone and make them falls in love with him, though he mentions that this is only the facet of his untapped true power. [[spoiler:Against Shiva, it instead manifests as a painful mental attack due to his resistance against charm.]]
* CupidsArrow: Essentially his Sacred Artifact, but he can't choose who the targeted person falls in love with.
* HeroOfAnotherStory: Once stopped Kalki, an Avatar of Destruction, from rampaging in Tokyo as part of his backstory.
* EmotionBomb: His power isn't simply making anyone hit by one of his arrows fall in love with him, but forcing them to feel ''any'' emotion he wants them to, including heartbreak and despair. He uses this power to break several people free of the obsessive infatuation Sitri's feathers cause.
* TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers: So far, [[spoiler:he is the only substitute Representative in the story, meaning that he isn't directly involved with Olympus's Exile, Eurynome, at all, unlike the other pairs of Representative and the Exile.]]
* LightEmUp: His element.
* MeaningfulName: One of his given name's possible meanings is "arrow of truth" (真矢 Shinya), while his surname literally means [[spoiler:"Temple of Heavenly King", fitting his role as Zeus' proxy.]]
* PowerPerversionPotential: Subverted. Should the Hero bring it up, Shinya angrily rebuts that his charm ability isn't fun or titillating to him; the manic, obsessive love inspired by Cupid's arrows makes him more uncomfortable than anything.
* SingleTargetSexuality: What getting hit by one of his arrows usually inspires towards him.
* SpannerInTheWorks: Implied to be this to [[spoiler:Curren, since Shinya himself is bound to a Transient and does not possess a Sacred Artifact, meaning that Breke cannot pick up his power per her design, let alone the fact that he is only a Substitute Representative.]]
* TheStraightandArrowPath: Cupid's weapon of choice, per his legend.

[[caption-width-right:350:''Football Captain'']]
!!!'''Voiced by''': Creator/YasuakiTakumi

This gigantic, Transient buffalo spirit hails from the world of the Great Spirit. A high school senior at Yoyogi Academy and captain of the football team, he is a bit of an airhead who takes everything at face value. Unbound by common sense, constantly running at full speed, and with no concept of personal space, he is regarded by those around him as a loveable oddball. Despite his flaws, however, he possesses strong leadership skills, earning him the affection and respect of his peers. Cheerful, openly friendly, yet with no shortage of weaknesses, he's surprisingly popular.

* BadWithTheBone: His WeaponOfChoice of sorts. His helmet is his sacred artifact and made out of the skull of a buffalo.
* CoolHelmet: His sacred artifact takes the form of an American football helmet. Despite his bio stating it's crafted from a buffalo's skull, the helmet itself has a rather mundane appearance.
* TheHeart: Although at first appearing to be a good fit for TheBigGuy, Wakan Tanka is revealed to actually be one of the most caring characters in the game. He's very in touch with his own feelings, as well as the feelings of those around him.
* HeartIsAnAwesomePower: Wakan's specific power is the ability to [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin "create a path forward"]]. Indeed, when activating his helmet by pressing it onto the earth, a brick laid path freed of obstruction will appear before him and his teammates. What makes this power so awesome is that the helmet also empowers his him and his team into near unstoppable juggernauts, represented in game as granting your team with the powerful Crit+ buff capable of dealing immense amounts of damage.
* HornedHumanoid: Sports two spectral buffalo horns.
* HurtingHero: While we've been getting hints that Wakan Tanka recognizes one of the souls of the Protagonist, it's explicitly addressed in Seaside Fashionista. It's then stated that the Protagonist reminds him of someone from his world that he began to care deeply about. This person apparently disappeared from his world, and looking at the Protagonist reminds him of that pain.
* LovableJock: Friendly, encouraging and well-liked by his peers.
* MemoryJar: [[spoiler: As his second sacred artifact, his very body itself, is a Pillar, albeit an Incomplete one. It allows Wakan Tanka to retain his memories of joyous events across timelines. According to his Japanese bio, this is a result of his body being created by all the spirits of his homeworld in an attempt to go past their limits and gain omnipotence.]]
* RippleProofMemory: [[spoiler: A downplayed example. Unlike the completed World Pillars that most of the Representatives wield, Wakan's body is limited to recording only a certain type of emotional memories. In his case, memories of happiness.]]
* SoulJar: Wakan Tanka is The Great Mystery of Lakota belief. As such, he's not a singular entity, but the representation of ALL great powers of his world, jammed into the body of a single person.

!!!'''Voiced by''': Creator/KazuhiroNakaya

A Transient sumo wrestler with a dynamic and care-free attitude. When younger students ask him for help, he heartily agrees, making him quite popular at school. Back in the mountains of his home world, he lost to a certain man in a sumo match and chose to quit while he was ahead. Ever since, he has trained ceaselessly in sumo technique and honed his mind, body, and skill. As a result, he has come to be called the strongest in the nation, giving him the right to wear the Sacred Artifact of a Shinto Straw Festoon. He feels a strong empathy toward one born and raised in the mountains who presents a gloomy nature and a penchant for becoming attached.

* BoisterousBruiser: The man has two settings: loud and louder, and he loves putting his physical strength to use - not necessarily in a fight, just in general.
* BruiserWithASoftCenter: As big and tough as he tries to look, it is ''incredibly'' easy for him to fall into InelegantBlubbering if he thinks he's been abandoned by his friends - emphasis on "thinks". This includes when he forgot where and when they were to meet up, and showed up at the wrong time and place.

A high school student and doujin artist belonging to the Akihabara Guild. He loves Therians and draws them at every waking moment. He is cheerful and sociable, but has the bad habit of running off at the mouth whenever his favorite topic come up.

* UsefulNotes/FurryFandom: His main defining character traits can be seen as an homage to ''kemoners'' - Japanese furry fans - and in particular kemono artists. Fitting given the game's major appeal to the ''kemono'' demographic, and the fact that several artists who work on the game are themselves popular furry doujin artists.
* SitcomArchNemesis: With Benten. The feeling's mutual.
* YourMindMakesItReal: His Drawing Board Sacred Artifact possesses the Rule Of Automatism, causing others to see his illustrations as real for a short period of time.
* YouSexyBeast: He ''loves'' Therians, to the point of being obsessed with drawing them. His 5-Star even notes that his dream is essentially to be in a kingdom full of them, free to fully express his love for them.

!!The Game Masters (Beware of unmarked spoilers)

[[folder:General]]
The creators and managers of the App. They created it for the sole purpose of using it to create a new world, regulating it.
!!General

* BlueAndOrangeMorality: A Murderous Battle-Royale Free-For-All to capture the Protagonist where hundreds of thousands of innocents are brutalize and slain in a time-loop? Perfectly acceptable. Rushing the Protagonist every single time the game starts? '''NOPE'''! Every participating Rep has to sign a Non-Aggression Pact until the [=GMs=] say it's time or else.
* GameMaster: It's in the name and unlike most cases, this seems to be team of game masters rather than one single moderator who oversees the progress of the game.
* {{Immortality}}: A requirement for all of their members. All of the Game Masters apparently possess some form of [[TheAgeless eternal youth]] or immortality. [[JustifiedTrope Justified]], since they reside in the Tower of Babel, the one place in Tokyo unaffected by the Time-Flood that resets everything in Tokyo back to the beginning of the game if the Reps fail to capture the Protagonist, so their immortality helps get them through the dozens, if not hundreds of temporal resets. Wouldn't want that pesky little issue of aging getting in the way of their work.
* KillerGameMaster: They're seemingly ok with all the participants engaging in wanton acts of cruelty and murders, as long as it's within the bounds of their rules. No one is safe in Tokyo once the game starts in earnest in every time-loop.
* TheManBehindTheMan: They were the ones to set up the rules for this insane game of supremacy in Walled Tokyo and is implied to a degree of control over even how the Representatives can act in Tokyo.
* TheUnseen: There has been multiple mentions about them and the role they play in managing the Game, yet their upper echelons and motives remains a mystery. So far, only some of their field agents have played an active role in the story.

An odd girl dressed in Gothic-Lolita style, who speaks in a prosey style. She's very selfish and lacking in decorum due to her inability to socialize normally, and treats her partner Jambavan like a servant. Sometimes her words are harsh, sometimes fierce, but more often her utterings are rather garbled, confusing those around her. She looks as though she came straight out of a fairytale. [[spoiler:She is a member of the app game's GM team in West Tokyo]].
----

* TheAgeless: Implied. The fact that she's within the ranks of the Game Masters means she must have some method to resist the ravages of time and considering her nature, this is the most likely one.
* AliceAllusion: In this case, she is outright the same person.
* AmbiguouslyHuman: While she does look like a human child, her [[TechnicolorEyes eyes]] changes color to reflect her mood, which immediately puts her "humanity" to doubt.
* BlessedWithSuck: Her ability to be automatically forgotten by anyone who takes their eyes off her makes infiltration a cake walk. But this same power has also doomed her to an extreme loneliness as everyone she meets will quickly forget she even exists, with the sole exception of Jambavan.
* ChangingClothesIsAFreeAction: Changes between two extremely elaborate costumes, complete with eye and hair color changes, constantly throughout the Halloween party event.
* DamselInDistress: [[spoiler: Chapter 10 revealed that she is currently imprisoned somewhere in the Tower of Babel due to her prior interference with the game.]]
* ADayInTheLimelight: While she is normally unable to interact with the normal world, on the day of Halloween, when fantasy and reality intermingle, she is able to be remembered by others. She's so overjoyed when the day comes that she gives Jambavan a day off.
* GoKartingWithBowser: The Halloween party event, though the Hero is unaware of her villain role at the time.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: Her treatment of Jambavan. While she does genuinely like and consider him a friend, her [[NoSocialSkills stunted social development]] and Jambavan's [[ShrinkingViolet tendency to panic]] lead to her abusing his doormat nature and bossing him around.
* LaserGuidedAmnesia: Her ability causes her to drift out of the memories of others, to the point she can infiltrate the Berserkers guild simply by walking in the front door, as any witnesses forget all about her the moment she's out of sight. As she describes it, her power is the ability to "replace reality with dreams", and dreams are inherently something that will be quickly forgotten by their dreamers when they "wake up".
* LonelyRichKid: Lives a high-class lifestyle, but due to her ability she is forgotten by everyone except [[spoiler:her fellow GM,]] Jambavan, who is her only "friend" but remains with her because he has to rather than out of mutual friendship.
* LoopholeAbuse: Able to keep Jambavan under her thumb despite the incredible power his Sacred Treasure grants him, because she is physically weak but has powerful mental abilities.
* MysteriousWaif: A enigmatic little girl who shows up during the middle of huge confrontations and seems to know about the machinations of the game. [[spoiler: She is later revealed to be a member of the Game Masters]].
* NinjaPirateZombieRobot: Her Halloween costume variant: unable to pick just one thing, her costume for the Halloween party is a mishmash of elements she dubs a Vampire Knight Detective.
* PowerIncontinence: Her memory erasure power is passive. She can guide and amplify it to wipe specific parts of a specific person's mind if she needs to, but otherwise has no way to shut it off.
* RedEyesTakeWarning: In cases where someone manages to rile her up, her eyes glow red.
* TokenMiniMoe: One of the rare females in the cast, and most importantly, the only one looking like a little girl.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Her standard form has faded lime green curls, while her holiday variant has blond with pink edges or ashy gray with burgundy edges, depending on which costume she is wearing.

[[caption-width-right:350:''Big Boss of Umamichi'']]
!!!'''Voiced by''': Creator/KenNarita
This legendary delinquent leader hails from Umamichi Academy in Taito Ward. His passionate cries echo throughout the school on a daily basis, calling on its students to live their one and only youths to the fullest. He boasts an honorable, chivalrous, and spirited personality, and has garnered the trust of many of his schoolmates and teachers by rounding up the rowdy students of the academy and organizing them under a strict code of conduct. He has taken it upon himself to watch over his wayward underclassmen. At the same time, however, he can't conceal his hope that one day, someone who can surpass him will appear. While he seems invincible, mentioning his years held back seems to deal critical psychic damage.
----

* TheAgeless: True to his legend, Sanat is blessed with eternal youth and vigor. Although he does have some gripe with his unending youth as it, among many other things, has kept him from graduating.
* AnimalMotif: The peacock, as it's the animal that represent his divinity with him sprouting peacock wings and tail feathers when using his powers.
* BewilderingPunishment: After causing a little bit of trouble in the local shopping district, Sanat Kumara announces to the Jiangshi during the ''Arise! Jiansghi Night'' event that they need to assist in repairing any damage they caused...as well as submitting to them being punched by him. After fighting him to keep him from attacking the Jiangshi, you come to the realization that it was a ploy to remove attention from the Jiangshi, as the perception of the crowds around them directly influenced their behavior.
* DarkIsNotEvil: ''Technically'' summoned as a Shadow of himself; it doesn't seem to have made any negative changes to his personality in the slightest.
* DoubleAgent: [[spoiler:Following the events of ''Arise! Jisangshi Night'', Sanat Kumara is revealed to be another Game Master, like Alice. Once Sanat Kumara realizes the Invaders created a BodyDouble in order to influence the Entertainers, he decided to take its place and influence the Invaders in return, ostensibly to figure out what exactly they have planned.]]
* GagBoobs: Good Lord, where to begin?! They look like they could pop at any minute!
* HornedHumanoid: A small oni-like horn of flames constantly swirls from his forehead.
* KillAndReplace: Rare heroic example. He destroys the copy the Invaders made of him and intends to take its place and return to the Invaders to uncover their ploy.
* LargeAndInCharge: He's the gang leader/bancho of Umamichi Academy and is described in his introduction as very tall and muscular.
* ManOfKryptonite: Despite him and Licho apparently getting along quite well, the tiger's profile shows he dislikes Sanat Kamura - likely because Sanat's power to break through illusions and falsehoods not only negates Licho's Artifact, it means Sanat can see through all the lies Licho is telling himself and give the Therian advice he doesn't want to hear.
* MeaningfulName: His name literally means 'Eternal Youth'.
* NeighborhoodFriendlyGangsters: Despite holding himself as the bancho, or gang leader of Umamichi and its surroundings, he appears to have a good relationship with the business owners surrounding the school. Acts of vandalism and other crimes committed during his introductory event were also met with his disapproval or demands of compensation for the wronged parties.
* PlayingWithFire: His Sacred Artifact is the shadowy ether fire that surrounds him and has the power to [[SoulPower touch and influence]] the souls of others.
* ShatteringTheIllusion: This appears to be part of Sanat Kumara's power set. After the events of Halloween Night, Sanat Kumara confronts Christine and the Entertainers responsible for that night's chaos. At that point [[spoiler:Sanat attacks a copy of himself that had been following the Entertainers. He reveals that to be a shadow of himself, created most likely by someone in the Invaders. This copy of himself is the person who had contacted the Entertainers and commissioned them to cause chaos in Umamichi.]]
* WingedHumanoid: He can sprout fiery wings.
----

* BlueAndOrangeMorality: A Murderous Battle-Royale Free-For-All to capture the Player where hundreds of thousands of innocents are brutalize and slain in a time-loop? Perfectly acceptable. Rushing the Player every single time the game starts? '''NOPE'''! Every participating Rep has to sign a Non-Aggression Pact until the [=GMs=] say it's time or else.
* GameMaster: It's in the name and unlike most cases, this seems to be team of game masters rather than one single moderator who overseer the progress of the game.

[[JustifiedTrope Justified]], they resides in the Tower Babel, the one place in Tokyo unaffected by the Time-Flood that resets everything in Tokyo back to the beginning of the game if the Player fails to be captured, so their immortality helps get them through the dozens, if not hundreds of temporal resets.

* InnocentlyInsensitive: Her treatment of Jambavan. While she does genuinely like and consider him a friend, her [[NoSocialSkills stunted social development]] and Jambavan's ShrinkingViolet tendencies lead to her abusing his doormat nature and bossing him around.

* ConditionalPowers: His ability to temporarily use the powers of the artifacts of others requires that he [[ShapeShifting assumes the form of that artifact's previous owner]] and, also, [[BecomingTheMask assume their personality while in use]]. On top of that, it's implied that as a result of it being tied to Freki's Rule, he can only tap into the artifacts of Transients that have completed their Roles.

* SpannerInTheWorks: Implied to be this to [[spoiler:Currn, since Shinya himself is bound to a Transient and does not possess a Sacred Artifact, meaning that Breke cannot pick up his power per her design, let alone the fact that he is only a Substitute Representative.]]

* MysticalWhiteHair Has pure white hair in his King Solomon form/

A gentle high school student and archery club member, accompanied by the cherubim Cupid. He has a soul that overlaps with a god existing within one of the parallel gate worlds, and the godly energy crosses that barrier, welling up in him. But if this extraordinary power accumulates too much in his ordinary human body it could destroy not only him, but Tokyo itself. Having taken a liking to Shinya, Cupid helps him out by periodically releasing this overflowing power in the form of light arrows. There is, unfortunately, the stipulation that the arrows cannot be fired aimlessly and must hit someone. [[spoiler:He and his familiar Cupid are also the substitute Representative in place of Zeus, due to the latter is unable to take part in the game because of Perun's existance.]]

** His Soul Shooter skill throws Arousal Buff to allies in front of him by 2 panels.

* CharmPerson: One of the application of his power is to have Cupid fires Arrow of Love to someone and make them falls in love with him, though he mentions that this is only the facet of his untapped true power. [[spoiler:Against Shiva, it instead manifests as a painful mental attack due to his resistance against charm.]]

* MeaningfulName: One of his given name's possible meanings is "arrow of truth" (真矢 Shinya), while his surname literally means [[spoiler:"Temple of King of Heaven", fitting his role as Zeus' proxy.]]

* SpannerInTheWorks: Implied to be this to [[spoiler:Curran, since Shinya himself is bound to a Transient and does not possess Sacred Artifact, meaning that Breke cannot pick up his power per her design, let alone the fact that he is only a Substitute Representative.]]

Acts of Vandalism and other crimes committed during his introductory event were also met with his disapproval or demands of compensation for the wronged parties.

* {{Expy}}: Of Dr. Romani Archaman from ''VideoGame/FateGrandOrder''. A self-sacrificing mentor who is heavily connected to King Solomon and the tenth ring? ''Check.''

* RetGone: As revealed by Mahakala, this will be his fate the moment that this loop comes to pass, due to him giving away his Sacred Artifact and its power for the protagonist's sake and his own body wearing down from the memories of the past loops. The protagonist vows to not let this happen.

* PowerTattoo: A hexagonal star on the back of his right hand.

* StepfordSmiler: It is revealed in Chapter 11 that he is full of grief for having to witness the protagonist dying again and again without them ever graduated from Shinjuku Academy even once, and wants for them to finally survive to the end in this last loop even with him having to pay the price with his own existence.

Brother of Shuichi and child prodigy whose parents are Japanese and Indian. He has obtained over 10 doctorates via virtual schooling in fields such as mathematics and physics. He is the guild master of the Hongo Guild located in Bunkyo Ward that also operates as a student think-tank. Duo is a nickname with several origins, one of which being that there are two Ds in his full name. He is surprisingly friendly toward people who treat him in a manner appropriate to his young age.

* AmbiguouslyBrown: He's apparently half Indian.
* ArtificialHuman: [[spoiler: Duo, alongside his ''siblings'', Shuichi and Curren, were created as part of an inhumane experiment in Eastern Tokyo aimed at the fusion of human with sacred artifacts. For this experiment, the three were cloned from the genetic template of a certain set of geniuses, until one day Shuichi managed to escape with Duo in arm to Western Tokyo.]]
* ChildProdigy: In part thanks to his Sacred Artifact which acts as a sort of second brain capable of incredible thought processes.
* FaceHeelTurn: Happens when [[spoiler: the Representatives of the Rule Makers show their faces at the Chapter 8 finale. Shuichi is happy to see his brother is alive and well, only for Duo to disregard him, revealing his allegiance to the Representatives. Shuichi....[[HeroicBsod doesn't take it very well]].]] [[spoiler: Chapter 9 implies that Duo is still on the Player's side, but must work to divert attention away from them by joining the Rule Makers.]]
* IJustWantToBeNormal: He would much prefer it if people treated him like a kid his age rather than some all-knowing genius.
* MagicalComputer: His sacred artifact is globe sized supercomputer.
* TheManBehindTheMan: A non-villainous example. He is the guild master of the Hongo Guild, yet most people assume it is his older brother Shuichi.
* TheMole:
** In chapter 7, we learn from Shuichi that Duo was kidnapped by an unknown party. It's discovered later that this party happens to be [[spoiler: The World Representatives, and that Duo was never kidnapped. Rather, it was all a plan orchestrated by Duo to help manipulate events in the favor of the Representatives.]] [[spoiler: It's implied later on that there's more to this.]]
** [[spoiler: In chapter 9, Claude implies this is Duo's actual plan for joining up with the Rule Makers.]]
* TheQuietOne: He never speaks to anyone but his brother. [[spoiler: This slowly changes as the story progresses and he starts making his move in the game.]]
* SiblingTeam: Despite their differences, they work together as a team. [[spoiler: This is subverted in the chapter 8 finale when Duo allies himself with the Rule Makers guild and leaves Shuichi behind.]]

A member of a small criminal group that lurks around Ikebukuro and is mainly active in the Ikebukuro underground. He would bury his knife all the way into a human body without a sliver of hesitation. To him, any and all human contact is nothing more than a means for survival... At least, until he meets a certain man...

Despite his numerous appearances he is one of the few recurring characters who has not been released as a playable unit yet.

* JerkAssHasaPoint: Despite also being guilty of the events in Chapter 8, he was right to point out to the little girl he gave the knife to that Babalon, Arc, and the other Genociders are responsible for her parent's death.

* {{Immortality}}: A trait all of them shares. All the members of the Game Masters apparently have some form of [[TheAgeless eternal youth]] or immortality. [[JustifiedTrope Justified]], they resides in the Tower Babel, the one place in Tokyo unaffected by the Time-Flood that resets everything in Tokyo back to the beginning of the game if the Player fails to be captured, so their immortality helps get them through the dozens, if not hundreds of temporal resets. Wouldn't want that pesky little issue of aging getting in the way of their work.

[[caption-width-right:350:''Brilliance with both Pen and Sword'']]
!!!'''Voiced by''': Creator/MasatoUshiki

A high school student who, while being known in Tokyo as a kendo strongarm and accomplished military and literary scholar, commutes to prep school. He acts as the manager of a student think-tank centered in Hongo, Bunkyo Ward. At the same time, he is a member of the upper echelons of the Hongo Wisemen, allies of the Berserkers. He adores doting on his one and only little brother Duo, but is always saddened by being treated as an annoyance. Knowing the darkness from before the time when Transient's appeared in Tokyo, he doesn't trust anything other than his blood-ties.

* AmbiguouslyBrown: Shuichi is likely half-Indian like his brother.
* AnnoyingYoungerSibling: Inverted. Duo finds Shuichi's borderline worship and emotional dependence on him to be grating. He would rather they have an average sibling relationship and for Shuichi to treat him like a [[IJustWantToBeNormal normal]] kid, but his older brother is not of the same mind.
* AntiMagic: [[spoiler: Under very specific circumstances, his Akashic Records can temporarily shut down the Rule of another person, even someone as powerful as Shiro overtaken by Yog-Sothoth. It's his ace in the hole and he typically prefers to only use it under dire circumstances.]]
* ArtificialHuman: [[spoiler: Going by Curren's comment, he too was likely made in a lab alongside his ''siblings''.]]
* BigBrotherInstinct. To put it lightly. [[spoiler: Bits and pieces from chapter 8 onward implies this the result of spending all his childhood protecting his little brother and himself from the people who experimented on them.]]
* CannotTellALie: Allegedly, as a result of his Role and Rule. [[HalfTruth This doesn't]] [[UnreliableExpositor keep him from misleading people]] [[YouDidntAsk when he sees fit.]]
* DecoyLeader: Although he never claims to be the Wisemen’s guild master, most people simply assume he is, as he does all the talking.
* DullEyesOfUnhappiness: He's [[spoiler:despondent and catatonic during the first half of Chapter 9]]. He doesn't give a damn about anything, [[ThousandYardStare looks off into space]], and only barely communicates in short sentences. [[spoiler:Claude of all people]] [[GetAHoldOfYourselfMan has to talk some sense into him]].
* FireForgedFriends: He developed a rapport with Moritaka in their kendo classes. In fact, Moritaka is the one who is [[spoiler:nursing him back to mental sanity during Chapter 9]].
* HeroicBSOD: [[spoiler: Sadly, he is absolutely broken and destroyed by [[TheReveal the traumatic reveal]] that not only was Duo playing him like a fiddle, but he was also in league with Chapter 8's apparent BigBad, Michael]].
* KnowledgeBroker: Essentially. The Hongo Guild specializes in observing and gathering data on everything, which his Sacred Artifact allows him to do. He passes all data on to his brother to analyze.
* ManipulativeBastard: Has no qualms attempting to use the Protagonist's friends as bargaining chips to coerce them into an alliance in which they are the "limbs" to his "brain", and later thinks aloud about using the Outlaws as meat-shields once the Genociders' assault had thinned their numbers enough for them to be desperate enough to cooperate.
* NoSocialSkills: [[ZigZaggingTrope Zig-Zagged.]] He is at times described as charming by the narration, and is capable of coming across as an upstanding individual to Shiro in their online interactions as Cain, and a trustworthy friend to [[HorribleJudgeOfCharacter the chronically-naive Moritaka,]] and is no doubt an affable person. That said, even putting aside the over-active [[BigBrotherInstinct Big Brother Instinct]] that compels him to sing Duo's praises near-constantly, Chapter 7 has Nomad note that he is excessively familiar, and shortly after, he speculates that Claude and Snow sent [[UndyingLoyalty Garmr]] [[BrutalHonesty on a mission to gather the remaining Berserkers to the Colosseum to act as a decoy for Nomad because they could find no other use for him.]] Out loud. Within earshot of Garmr, who is still nursing injuries from trying to complete that mission. When the Protagonist expresses their disapproval,[[InnocentlyInsensitive he seems genuinely confused as to what he did wrong.]]
* PowerNullifier: [[spoiler: His sacred artifact can do this under specific circumstances.]]
* SiblingTeam: Despite their differences, they work together as a team.
* ThousandYardStare: In the first half of [[spoiler:chapter 9]]. He gets better.

[[folder:Representatives (Unmarked Spoilers!)]]
Powerful Transients within the game that are chosen by their system to represent the highest power in their world; be it through strength, faith, love, connection, or other concepts. They are different from a world's pillars. In some way or form, the Representatives or someone connected to them are the ones to banish the Exiles. Most of these Representatives make up the Three True Guilds that are aware of the time loops and seek to use the protagonist for their own agenda. Currently, 15 of the 23 Representatives have been revealed:

* Rule Makers
** Amaterasu of Takamagahara
** Korpokkur of Kamuy Kotan
** Michael of Eden
** Horus of Aaru
* Warmongers
** Yoritomo of the Land of Wa
** Shiva of Deva Loka

** Tezcatlipoca of El Dorado
* Invaders
** Perun of Kitezh
** Temujin of Xanadu
* Genociders
** Surtr of Yggdrasil
** Azathoth of Old Ones.

* ManOfKryptonite: As the beings who banished the Exiles, they serve as this to keep the Protagonist from being an OP game breaker. Later lose this thanks to the Crafters helping the Protagonist find a way around it.
