15	* BestHerToBedHer: [[MisplacedRetribution Due to blaming Kirishima for a particularly nasty prank]] [[note]]The Destroyer Borie had actually set it up and Kirishima had actually been attempting to disarm it[[/note]], Gale snuck up on Kirishima at night, while the Fast Battleship was on full alert and looking for Gale, and nailed her with a full clip of paintballs, with every single paintball hitting a different part of Kirishima's body, every single shot actually corresponding to a weak point on her hull. Kirishima summed it up as follows.
16	-->The Yeoman had expected for Kirishima to be at least annoyed or, more likely, angry. What she had not expected was for Kirishima to be staring at her awestruck. "You... Snuck up on me in the night... When I was at full alert and looking for you... Then you fired on me, hitting all my weak spots..." Suddenly a blush spread across Kirishima's face as she held her cheeks in her hands, her glasses askew. "O-oh my.~"

42	[[folder: Enterprise]]
43	The most decorated American warship of WWII and the reason why people think of the U.S.S. Enterprise when they think of Star Trek.
44	----
45	* ACupAngst: Does not being reminded that her chest is as flat as her flight deck.
46	-->Tilting her head, Yamato made a pointed look at Enterprise's chest, or rather lack of one, before she answered. "Perhaps you have not kept as... 'abreast' as you might think."
47	-->Much to Yamato's amusement, the chopsticks slipped from a shocked Enterprise's fingers. The Carrier then startled some and glared at Yamato. "Did you just make a crack about what I think you did?"
48	* AffectionateNickname: Calls Yahagi "Cuddly" and Yamato [[InsultOfEndearment "Princess"]].
49	* CommonalityConnection: Was able to bond with Yamato over two things they shared: A desire to protect their sisters this time around, and a severe distaste at being used for propaganda instead of battles.
50	* NoSenseOfDirection: On a trip from Yokosuka to Kure, Enterprise somehow drove to Shikoku even with written directions (though it was written in Japanese).
51	* ThoseTwoGuys: A close friend of the Japanese battleship Yamato. Frequently bickers with the Japanese battleship.[[/folder]]

92
93	[[folder: Taylor]]
94	One of the 175+ Fletcher-class destroyers built in WWII.
95	----
96	* AngelUnaware: When in Japan, Taylor is often accompanied by a large white 'dog', which she has named Sunny. [[spoiler: Although there are a couple of people who have recognized Taylor's 'dog', nobody's told Taylor she's walking around with ''Amaterasu''.]]
97	* BerserkButton: Attempts by Marina Militare officers to recruit her, due to her bad history with the Italians.
98	* InsistentTerminology: Taylor does ''not'' have a boyfriend. She just has a really good friend, whose hugs she likes. This did not stop him from accompanying her to [[spoiler: Haruna and Rose's wedding]].
99	* MythologyGag: She looks a lot like the character from {{Literature/Worm}}, thanks to a long-running fanfic crossover with Kantai Collection. Most of her sisters like pointing out the resemblance; even to the point where the first version of the Shipgirls Online forum was created solely to tease her about it. Taylor does ''not'' appreciate the comparison.

103	BB-26, the US Navy's first Dreadnought, and as such the Mother of All American Battleships.
104	----
105	* ApronMatron
106	* SweetHomeAlabama: Very much so.
107	* TeamMom: To all US battleships, even if they're adopted ex-sea demons, like Rhode Island.
108	[[/folder]]
109
110	[[folder:Rhode Island]]
111	A gutted hulk of a Re-Class that was secretly taken in by the US Navy, and rebuilt as an American warship.
112	----
113	* CloneAngst: Rhode Island. Short-lived and subverted in that 1) she's a repaired brain-dead Abyssal, 2) the issue isn't about her identity, but more if she would be fighting her 'kinfolk' or not.
114	* EasyAmnesia: Yes and no. After all, you'd lose all of your memories too [[BodyHorror if a random artillery shell gutted your brain-case.]]
115	* {{Expy}}: Let's see... Deep Southern twang, wears a Stetson, has a "dog," respects honesty... Hey there [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic Applejack]]!
116	* InLoveWithYourCarnage: Rhodey had a front-row seat to Mika letting her Muramasa nature take over during a fierce battle off Saint Kitts. Let's just say once the area was clear of enemies, there was an impromptu makeout session between the two of them.
117	* RedRightHand: Going by her blonde hair and normal-colored eyes, you'd never take her for a former sea demon... Except for the giant tail coming out of her spine... [[AllAnimalsAreDogs That is also a dog.]]
118	* SweetHomeAlabama: South Carolina was her main influence during her rebuild. This really should have been expected.[[/folder]]

126	[[folder: Alondra David/Pillsbury]]
127	A Brazilian-American retired US Marine, FBI Special Agent, and the shipgirl of the destroyer escort USS Pillsbury. Delilah and later Wilma's primary contact with the US Government.
128	----
129	* ByTheBookCop: An upstanding member of the FBI, and is the shipgirl who arrests Master Raven for kidnapping. Also regularly gets called on to help with SWAT work, since she is a one-ship bulletproof wrecking crew despite being a comparatively weak World War Two warship designed for escort and antisubmarine rear area work.
130	* OhCrap: As one of the US Government members serving on the front line of dealing with MACUSA, is regularly called to brief her superiors about the status of events related to DELTA GREEN (the secret plan to integrate MACUSA). After Delilah is presumed dead during the Battle of Kingsport, she is the person who has to report on that nearly catastrophic fiasco...
131	-->Inside the briefing room her eyes widened briefly as she automatically read the rank of the man at the head of the table. Four stars, Marine uniform. General Jones, National Security Advisor to the President. [=SecState=] French, CIA Director Jackson, and Attorney General Zigler were present too.
132
133	-->''Fuck me. It's the Principals.''
134
135	-->She sat down and waited to be called. That helped with the weakness in her knees at least.
136	* SecretKeeper: is one of the Muggles who knows about the Magical World and also all of Delilah's secrets.
137	[[/folder]]
138
139	[[folder: Trieste]]
140	The shipgirl spirit of USS Trieste (Deep Submergence Vehicle Zero), a purpose built research submarine bathysphere.
141	----
142	* ActualPacifist: Unlike every other shipgirl seen, she is totally unarmed and has no offensive capability. Even Maruyu has learned how to fight effectively, but not Trieste.
143	* AllLovingHero: Marine biology fascinates Trieste and she's just as happy discovering bacteria cultures in a seafloor brine seep as she is observing a sperm whale feeding on a giant squid.
144	* BadassPacifist: That said, she also happily dives to the bottom of the ocean miles deep where the water pressures are lethal, there is no concept of light, minimal oxygen, and she is alone in the abyss knowing that if anything goes wrong no one can help her. And she wouldn't have it any other way. Her fellow USN shipgirls think that she's a weird freak loner (accurately enough). They also enormously respect her for the courage to go where literally no one has gone before. She spent over a week underwater holding her breath while shifted to a girl just to document her limits for science (and nearly passed out from anoxia before she requested to be pulled from the pool by her safety team).
145	* BrainyBrunette: Short dark hair, reading glasses, and devours marine biology and ocenaography textbooks and research papers for 'light reading entertainment'. She's currently working on a double PHD in Marine Biology and Oceanography. Is also a certified master diver for SCUBA and deep sea rigs.
146	* HeterosexualLifePartners: With Challenger Deep Princess. CDP is the embodiment of the unknown secrets of the oceans, while Trieste's life mission is to explore the unknown depths of the seas and shine light upon them for the joy of discovery. Also, Trieste was the first entity that CDP ever became aware of when Trieste dived to the bottom of the Challenger Deep in the 1960s.
147	* MadeOfIron: Or in her case, a five inch thick solid steel sphere observation gondola designed to resist ''1.25 metric tons'' of water pressure on every square centimeter of her hull seven miles down in the Challenger Deep. She's NighInvulnerable as a result as one of the toughest shipgirls ever built.
148	[[/folder]]
149
150	[[folder: Pennsylvania]]
151	The spirit of USS Pennsylvania
152	----
153	* BerserkButton: Hurting her escorts. [[spoiler:When the destroyer Kiyoshimo intercepted a torpedo meant for her, she completely obliterated the offender.]]
154	* FantasticRacism: Was not fond of the Japanese due to them sinking her escorts while she was still dry-docked during the war. [[TookALevelInKindness Key word, was.]]
155	* TookALevelInKindness: Initially was more than a bit of a {{Jerkass}} to the destroyer Kiyoshimo. After [[spoiler:Kiyoshimo took a torpedo that was meant for her, Pennsylvania donated a large amount of her own battleship-grade steel to help repair Kiyoshimo, even though it meant damaging herself.]]
156	[[/folder]]
157
158	[[folder: Des Moines]]
159	The summoned spirit of the name ship of her class of big-gun heavy cruisers, the final evolution of US Navy World War Two cruiser design.
160	----
161
162	* DefrostingIceQueen: While outwardly obsessed by being the perfect warship, Des Moines has a heart of gold underneath, mot notably seen when she meets Sabrina, and spends time playing plushies with her much younger sister to be there for the little girl.
163	* FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling: Her relationship with her younger sister Newport News. Des Moines is straight-laced, spring wound, and obsessed with doing her duty as a warship by fighting in naval battles, compared to her much more laid back and chill younger sister Newport News who is trying to get her to loosen up and learn there's more to life than duty and combat. Underscored when Des Moines has to suddenly deal with Sabrina, who is still traumatized from losing her family.
164	* JumpedAtTheCall: Summoned her rigging on Davy Jones and threatened him with her guns when she heard the call to return. He let her go -- right into a slack period in the stalemated Abyssal War with no major combat operations ongoing.
165	* MoreDakka: At full rate of fire when ripple firing her auto-loading turrets, she is delivering an 8" shell from her main battery ''every 2/3s of a second''. This is reflected in her rigging by her turrets being built into a minigun. She can take on quite a few battleship designs with quite good chances of winning by sheer radar-guided firepower.
166	* TheUnfavorite: Her motivation for returning early. She was designed to take advantage of the lessons of cruiser warfare in World War Two, but was launched after Japan surrendered, then was the [[HistoricalDomainCharacter victim of budget fights between the US Navy and US Air Force]] during the early Cold War that sidelined her for service in Korea and Vietnam by sending her to the Reserve Fleet to rot away at anchor for decades before being sunk in Blood Week without firing a shot in anger. So she aches to prove that she is worth the effort to build and is not a failure, which she finally did as one of the heroes during [[BigBadassBattleSequence Saint Kitts]] by taking down a [[EvilCounterpart Heavy Cruiser Princess]] and then a [[EliteMook Battleship Demon]] solo while participating in the hottest part of the big-gun fighting.
167	* WardrobeMalfunction: Due to her massive... [[UnusualEuphemism bunkerage]], it's all to common for her blouses to become undone and the twins fly free.
168	* WhatDidIDoLastNight: After Saint Kitts, Le Fantasque drags Des Moines off to the Eternal U Boat Party's Norfolk hub to celebrate their victory. What happened next isn't shown on screen, but the morning after, Newport News walks in on Des Moines hung over and sleeping on the floor of her apartment while wrapped in bedsheets and cuddling an equally naked Le Fantastaque.[[note]]And into this scene, Le Fantasque moaned in satisfaction as she stretched, sat up, and took note of their visitor and her resemblance to her roommate. The French shipgirl looked at Newport News, down at the still prone Des Moines, then back at Newport News, and smiled. “This is exactly what it looks like!” she said with glee.[[/note]]
169	[[/folder]]
170
171	[[folder: Newport News]]
172	The summoned spirit of the third ''Des Moines''-class cruiser, the last all-gun heavy cruiser launched by the US Navy.
173	----
174	* FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling: Unlike her sister, she was reactivated for the Vietnam War and fired her guns in anger, along with having two decades of service life. As a result she has a lot fewer hang-ups about her worth and is quite easy-going. Instead, she has made it her life's mission to teach Des Moines how to girl rather than just become the perfect warship. This becomes very relevant when the Des Moines sisters find out that USS Salem's been found.

177	!Royal Canadian Navy
178	[[folder: Diana Lombard]]
179	The Commander of Canada's shipgirl program
180	* TheCaptain: Managed to save her ship, CFAV Endeavour and crew from sinking on Blood Week despite it being an unarmed Oceanographic research ship
181	%%* DeadpanSnarker:
182	* SeenItAll: Having encountered many strange things in her career, from magic to the existence of many mythical creatures, few things can surprise Admiral Lombard.
183	[[/folder]]
184
185	[[folder: Bonaventure]]
186	Canada's last aircraft carrier in the 20th Century, she returned to serve the RCN with an alarming hobby.
187	* BFG: Despite being a light carrier, her rigging features a modified C1A1D Battle Rifle, which can fire at full auto.
188	* PintsizedPowerhouse: Despite being a Light Aircraft Carrier, she is able to operate early jet fighters in sea states that would make larger fleet carriers hurl.
189	* RunningGag: Has a habit of trying to launch planes that she has no business carrying. It only gets worse when she is hanging out with Hornet.
190	[[/folder]]
191
192	[[folder: Habbukuk]]
193	The personification of Project Habbukuk, a crazy plan to build a massive carrier out of Pykrete.
194	* HiddenInPlainSight: Habbukuk's preferred tactic: She disguises herself as an iceberg, her escorts hide behind her, and when Abyssals come close to find cover, they spring the trap.
195	* NecessaryDrawback: Being made out of Pykrete, she prefers staying in cooler climates.
196	* RunningGag: Enjoys slushies to the point that multiple convenient stores have run out of slushies anytime she is in town. [[/folder]]
197
198	[[folder: Haida]]
199	* TheAce: One of Canada's most veteran shipgirls, and had the most kills of any Canadian Warship in World War II

214	[[folder: [[spoiler: Tandy Ferguson]]]]
215	A member of the Fleet of Laughter, who joined the Canadians after marrying the XO of HMCS Regina.[[spoiler: Recently ascended as a Battleship Princess, making her the first abyssal princess to serve in a human navy.]]
216	* HornedHumanoid: [[spoiler: After her ascension as a princess she has a pair of horns, similar to a young moose. However, it tends to get in the way when moving around, much to her annoyance]]
217	* MooseAndMapleSyrup: Dresses in Flannel, stockings with Canada geese and maple leaf embroidery, and her rigging has hockey gloves and a James Vorhees-style goalie mask. Her official title is [[spoiler: Canadian Battleship Princess]]
218	[[/folder]]
219
220	!St. Thomas Naval Base
221	A naval base located in the Caribbean defending the approaches to Puerto Rico.
222
223	[[folder: Liutenant James Hunter]]
224	A Liutenant Junior Grade who transferred to St. Thomas to track weather patterns in order to anticipate Abyssal attacks.
225	----
226	* BadassUnintentional: Wound up helping Estelle prevent Sirius from sinking during the trip to St. Thomas. Naturally, this earned him much respect. Later helped fight off an Abyssal raiding party, leading to...
227	* EmbarrassingNickname: Had been having a supplement-enhanced threesome with Estelle and Sirius on the aforementioned night, meaning that during and after the battle, Lieutenant Hunter was [[BestKnownForTheFanservice quite erect under clearly hastily thrown-on clothes]], hence his in-universe nickname being "Lieutenant Full Mast". The Marines who arrived had a pretty good idea as to what had been going on....
228	* HoldTheLine: James, Estelle, and Sirius were a party of three who had to hold off an Abyssal raiding party until reinforcements could arrive. [[spoiler: They actually did so well that by the time said reinforcements arrived, all they had to do was rescue the defenders and clean up the remnants]]. This was helped by Estelle's [[CrazyPrepared safehouse gun safe]] having automatic weapons and grenades on hand plus a ''nasty'' set of lethal anti-intruder wards.
229	* RightManInTheWrongPlace: His life to date. He happened to be on a cargo ship alongside Estelle when a badly injured and out of control Sirius rammed it and started to sink. Then when Sirius woke up and declared her love for him (and wouldn't take 'No' for an answer), Sirius then maneuvered him into a threesome with Estelle, leading to a Navy Cross and an embarassing nickname the morning after when he woke up in the base hospital.
230	* SherlockScan: Saw a news report on Winter Storm Elsa and instantly pegged it as an Abyssal storm.

237	[[folder: Sirius]]
238	The spirit of the Dido-Class light cruiser HMS Sirius, sent down to St. Thomas on escort duty.
239	----
240	* BadassInDistress: Took heavy fire on the trip to St. Thomas, resulting in Etelle and James literally being forced to save and resuscitate her. As for the badass, took down a magic using Abyssal War Demon leading the invasion with some help from Estelle's abilities.
241	* FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling: The Foolish one to Dido's more mature responsible sibling, her klutziness leaving a number of messes her sister has to clean up.
242	* IOweYouMyLife: Has sworn herself to James and Estelle as their loyal maid after they saved her. In this case 'Maid' is the public role; in reality, she's winding up as a co-wife in all but name to them.
243	* TheKlutz: Is quite clumsy when it comes to being a maid. Thankfully, she is far more competent as a shipgirl.
244	* RescueRomance: How their mutual relationship started after Sirius took shell hits that knocked out her rudder and bridge and plowed into the transport ship that she was escorting. Estelle and James hauled her aboard before she could skink and saved her life with CPR and a healing potion.
245	* SpannerInTheWorks: Is her M.O. Maneuevered James and Estelle into a relationship with her, defeated City Consuming Princess' invasion of Saint Thomas thanks to hauling her loves to Estelle's beach house for a threesome, and most recently killed an invisible Abyssal assassin from sinking HMS Formidable at a critical point during the Battle of Saint Kitts by literally tripping over her at flank speed.

248	[[folder: Dido]]
249	The spirit of the Dido-Class light cruiser HMS Dido, also assigned to Saint Thomas with Sirius.
250	----
251	* DefrostingIceQueen: Has been showing signs of interest toward Lt. Hunter and knows about Estelle.
252	* FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling: The Responsible one to Sirius' emotional hijinks. She also holds this role for many of her other younger siblings such as HMS Cleopatra, although not Hermione who is also Responsible.
253	* NinjaMaid: Like Sirius, she dresses in a Royal Maid uniform. Also packs a medieval claymore and is quite willing to use it on Abyssals.

256	!MACUSA
257	Characters who are part of the Magical Congress of the United States -- Wizarding America.
258	----
259	* AncientConspiracy: Their attempts to hide away from the 'No-Maj' were noted as some of the most extreme in the Wizarding World.
260	* BenevolentConspiracy: The Winters Network, a group of witches, wizards, and nonhumans formed after the Civil War to work toward full civil rights for sentient magical nonhumans along with peaceful integration with the No-Maj world.
261	* GovernmentConspiracy: Several. Most notably the magical Research and Development branch TOTEM morphing into its own power base, and the formation of the secretive Magical Information Bureau from the Aurors to monitor the non-magical world after the Civil War.
262	* FantasticRacism: Played straight with sentient magical creatures such as the Sasquatch and jinn while surprisingly subverted by MACUSA's treatment of Native American magical tribesmen compared to historical actions taken in the 1800s.
263	* FunWithAcronyms: Quite a bit. For example, you have [[TheMenInBlack MIB]] with their in-house R & D shop ALADDIN, as well as the primary magical research arm named [[MAgicalNativeAmerican TOTEM]]. The escape plan for magical America uses tokens code named PILGRIM to transport the holder to a secure bunker in Alaska code named MAYFLOWER. The secret US Government plan to integrate MACUSA is called [[TabletopGame/DeltaGreen DELTA GREEN]] although this is deliberate to help conceal the truth by using the tabletop game's existence as a smoke screen in case the name gets leaked accidentally.
264	* SecretWar: Several that have raged in and around MACUSA historically. Notable examples include the internal political fighting and black operations between [[GovernmentConspiracy TOTEM]] and the Winters Network, other wizards versus the Order of Hermes, the magical sides of the Civil War and then World War Two, and most notably the fight between [[TheMenInBlack MIB]] and Magical Russia during the Cold War. In addition, the violently anti-magical Scourer terrorists pursued and hunted MACUSA, including doing such things as bombing a children's hospital.
265	* WainscotSociety: By far the most paranoid and isolationist of any of the Wizarding World major powers. Until 1970, any contact with the Muggles was actually illegal under Rappaport's Law and Muggle-born children such as John Halsey were kidnapped to be raised magical while their existence was covered up.
266	----

274	* HyperCompetentSidekick: Much more clever and ruthless than the dim-witted and somewhat amiable Quahog.

278	* DelightfulDragon: Talk show host on the Wizarding Wireless, MACUSA Senator from Colorado, current head of the Bureau of Magical Species Preservation, political ally of Jèzebel de Breuil... and secretly a Western Dragon in disguise with his own schemes running.
279	* ShoutOut: is an expy of Dunkelzahn from ''Shadowrun''.
280	* SmartPeoplePlayChess: Has a long running game of chess going with Jèzebel and a recurring motif in his appearances.[[note]]As the spirit departed, he began to laugh delightedly while he glanced over at the chessboard occupying a corner of his desk. One scaled and taloned hand hovered over the board. Then his claw delicately flicked out to topple the white king from his place of power. "Checkmate."[[/note]]

282
283	[[folder: Master Raven[[spoiler:/Yance Blinken]]]]
284	The head of TOTEM and one of the most powerful mages in America.
285	----
286	* AboveGoodAndEvil: His philosophy of magicals being superior and the quest for magical understanding being the be-all and end-all of human existence.
287	* AncientConspiracy: He heads one, TOTEM itself is organized like a mystery cult with its members masked and hooded during meetings and the higher one goes the more access to knowledge and power is given.
288	* BigBad: Leader of TOTEM, and responsible for several horrific actions that have been taken to pursue knowledge by freeing TOTEM from the shackles of oversight by 'lesser minds'. Also has a long-running SecretWar with Jèzebel's [[BenevolentConspiracy Winters Network]] who stands in his way and attempts to curb TOTEM's worst actions.
289	* JerkassHasAPoint: While many of the things that TOTEM does and did were morally reprehensible, beyond the pale, and equal to the worst of the Nazis or Imperial Japanese (magical or mundane), TOTEM also did greatly contribute to victory in World War Two with their breakthroughs in magical shipbuilding and later the Cold War with tools developed to fight the Magical KGB, plus other benevolent actions such as reverse-engineering Vanishing Cabinets for production in the US and developing some tools to fight the Abyss and evacuate large numbers of magicals to safety.
290	* VillainousBreakdown: When finally outmaneuvered and mousetrapped by Jèzebel to be arrested for his kidnapping and MindRape of Louise Winona.
291	-->The figure at the right hand of Jez lowered her hood and Yance shook and paled at the sight of Delilah de Breuil. A moment later, the one on Delilah's other side lowered her hood to reveal red hair literally formed of flame and burning emerald eyes.
292
293	-->"Impossible!!" He screamed as he looked between the familiar faces of Auror Deliah De Breuil and Auror 'Emma Cohen'. "You're dead! The Death Ledger was updated!"
294
295	-->Delilah's smug smile held no mercy and her voice was full of savage joy as she shook her head. "Not dead, Raven. Nor is Shark, and nor are all your records from Kingsport. If and when you see that albino maniac in jail, remind her that she should have taken the plea bargain that I offered her when I caught her sacrificing No-Maj to power her mad schemes." The revolver leaned forward and her cold green eyes glittered. "That said, I'd like you to introduce you to someone. Mika?"
296
297	-->The towering figure standing beside her grandmother lowered the hood to reveal the familiar face of a Native American shipgirl.
298
299	-->"L-lakotah---" Yance choked out in a horrified voice.

303	A senior member of TOTEM and their expert on curses and Morrigan's Select.
304	----
305	* ArchEnemy: To Auror Charles Deckard.
306	* BigBadFriend: Charles and Ezekiel were very good friends at Ilvermorny. Until [[FaceHeelTurn Ezekiel kidnapped and experimented on Charles' brother to try to study his bloodline curse as a Select]]. Even a century later, the two of them have a fair level of respect.
307	* ChildProdigy: Was able to master nonverbal spellcasting in his second year at Ilvermorny.
308	* IveComeTooFar: Ezekiel as he reflects on the magical notebook containing his life's work and his pursuit of knowledge and how that was a graduation gift from his best friend Charles Deckard.
309	* KnightTemplar: Before graduation, he learned about the Select curse on Charles' family and made a vow to find a way to break it. Unfortunately, when he ran out of ways to study the curse remotely, he resorted to kidnapping Charles' brother, the nearest known bearer.
310	* RedemptionRejection: Their last confrontation before Ezekiel flees to safety in MAYFLOWER.

316	* BigGood: The head and founder of the Winters Network and the guiding light behind efforts to reform and improve MACUSA.
317	* TheChessmaster: One of the greatest in MACUSA history who set up a BenevolentConspiracy as part of forming MIB and then wields enormous influence and power from the shadows after 'retiring' from Director of MIB to play politics in 1896.
318	* HandicappedBadass: Walks with a heavy limp and uses a cane (which doubles as a backup wand) after a near-fatal Dark Curse hit her hip during a near-successful assassination attempt thanks to some prominent conservative MACUSA families getting their ties to the No-Maj Southern slave trade exposed in 1866. As for the assassin, he found out the hard way that Jez carried a No-Maj derringer pistol up her sleeve just in case she ever lost her wand....
319	* HeartbrokenBadass: After the breakup with Norimune and her subsequent realization that she was pregnant, Jez wore mourning black for the rest of her life.
320	* MyGreatestFailure: Her accidental break-up with Norimune where she seriously hurt the nodachi spirit. Jez feels incredibly guilty, and took steps to rein the worst of her manipulative and controlling tendencies, leading to...
321	* MyGreatestSecondChance: how she viewed Delilah's birth, as a way to make up her failure to help Norimune by raising a daughter that Nori would be proud of. Jez succeeded in turning Del into a hero that Nori is incredibly proud of, and Delilah was even able to get her parents back together to start addressing their past failures.
322	* NamesToRunAwayFromVeryFast: The Black Widow. Inspired by her mourning black clothing, her ability to weave webs of influence and blackmail like a spider, and the fate of several of her enemies over the years.
323	-->The image of Jèzebel nodded and vanished to return the still life to normal. Ehren chewed her lip while they waited and finally spoke, "Tante Jèzebel is a formidable foe."
324
325	-->Jackie laughed darkly. "She isn't known as the Black Widow of MACUSA for nothing. I happen to know that among other things buried down here she has a way to dispose of bodies. Used it a time or three meself on her behalf."

331
332	[[folder: Louise Winona]]
333	Delilah's first great love, the mother of Mika de Breuil-Soctomah. Born in 1855, died in 1892, gave birth in 1996 [[TimeyWimeyBall (it's complicated)]]
334	----
335	* BadassNative: Full blooded Oglala Lakota (Sioux), Medicine Woman of White Buffalo Calf Woman, MACUSA Auror and member of the Winters Network.
336	* IDieFree: Committed suicide-by-rebelling-sasquatch to protect the secrets of her love Delilah from exposure and discovery after being [[MindRape magically conditioned]] to serve TOTEM as a ManchurianAgent in the Winters Network.
337	* MagicalNativeAmerican: Met Delilah at the wizarding school of Ilvermorny and graduated alongside her, plus took secret lessons in Chinese magical martial arts on the side from Wei Ying. A warden of the magical side of the Black Hills until her death in 1892.
338	* SecretKeeper: Both to Delilah (she was the person the revolver trusted the most before Zamarad won her heart) and to the Lakota as one of the people responsible for keeping a major extinction level magical threat magically bound in the Black Hills (alongside her lover, her lover's niece Ehren, and eventually her daughter as Wardens).
339	* TimeyWimeyBall: Her personal timeline is greatly complicated by her kidnapping. In brief, in 1892 while a week or so pregnant with Mika (unknown to her or Del) Louise was kidnapped forward in time to 1996 by TOTEM to be turned into TheMole by using [[MindRape magical brainwashing techniques developed to infiltrate the magical USSR]]. [[LoopholeAbuse TOTEM was barred from using those on ''current'' MACUSA citizens, but the geas only applied to people alive at the time of the geas application, which Louise technically wasn't]]. After escaping TOTEM with an incomplete level of brainwashing controls applied, Louise gave birth and hid out in an Indian reservation in Maine while trying to figure out how to warn her loved ones without betraying them. Then in 2005 she was tracked down by TOTEM again, subdued and the brainwashing was finished by them. TOTEM sent her back to the week after her disappearance in 1892, just in time for the Great Sasquach rebellion. Unable to warn Delilah that she was compromised, and knowing that she couldn't hold out for long before betraying her loves and ideals, Louise picked a fight that she knew would kill her, changing the timeline from the original one when she was merely crippled then and took a desk job before dying peacefully of old age at the end of World War Two.

346	[[folder: Auror Wilma Halsey[[spoiler:/Adept Goshawk]]]]
347	Del's protege in the Corps of Aurors who was headhunted by TOTEM for her skills in magical transportation magics. [[spoiler: Also the Natural-Born shipgirl of the uncompleted carrier USMS Shenandoah Valley, a 'paper ship' design variation on the Wasp/Yorktown concept.]]
348	----
349	* ActionMom: Mother. Auror. TOTEM's top specialist in transportation and flight magics. Carriergirl who leads a task force composed of some of the MACUSA Navy shipgirls who came back. TheMole for the Winters Network inside TOTEM.
350	* DarkSecret: The fact that she is a Natural-Born shipgirl from her friends and her coworkers, some of whom would view her as a half-human abomination or in the worst cases a test subject.
351	* GoodParents: Does her best to be one while raising her orphaned son Jeffrey Halsey and adopted daughter Sabrina Rappaport.
352	* IronicEcho: When Wilma was pregnant with Jeffrey, Del 'gifted' her a bottle of alcohol while trolling her with how she was unable to drink it when pregnant. Wilma returns the favor when she meets Del and realizes that Del is carrying twins.
353	-->Eyebrow twitching, the Revolver spirit gave her a shake of the head and a thin smile, “No, nothing’s wrong, Wilma.”
354
355	-->Chuckling, Wilma’s eyes gleamed a little bit, “Ah, that’s good then. This is good firewhiskey you know, very good.”
356
357	-->If anything, that caused Del’s eyebrow to twitch even more, “I see… that is good to know.” Then, she took a deep breath before releasing it and giving Wilma a glare, “You are a real bitch, you know that?”
358
359	-->Voice dry, the Natural Born Carrier gave her mentor a look, “When I was pregnant with Jeff, I remember someone coming over with a bottle of fine brandy… and then giving me an innocent explanation that she forgot about how I could not have alcohol. That was followed by her deciding to drink it in front of me.” Tone turning smug as did her expression, Wilma raised her glass towards a sour looking Del, “Payback is a bitch, Del, and so am I~”
360	* MamaBear: Extremely protective of her Little Man and concerned with his safety. The more so since Jeffrey's father died in an Abyssal attack.
361	* TheMole: Elects to become one that monitors monitor TOTEM for the Winters Network rather than flee to safety with the rest of TOTEM and risk a catastrophic crash of the Statute of Secrecy that will kill innocents in MACUSA.
362	* SoProudOfYou: Said to her three times on screen. In order, by her 'big half sister' Enterprise after Saint Kitts when the ''Yorktowns'' tell her that their sister has [[BadassFamily lived up to their historical heroic legacy]], by the faerie of her great-grandfather and namesake [[HistoricalDomainCharacter Admiral William 'Bull' Halsey]], and then by her mentor and teacher Delilah de Breuil.
363	* StrugglingSingleMother: Has to spend long hours on the job as an Auror, member of TOTEM, and also a shipgirl, so cannot spend as much time with her children as she wants. Worse, she is concerned that some of TOTEM may attempt use her son as a hostage to coerce her.

366	[[folder: Auror Charles Deckard]]
367	One of the most senior Aurors of MACUSA; Delilah de Breuil's mentor and friend.
368	----
369	* AlwaysGetsHisMan: Has been an Auror for almost a century and a half and is one of the best (and most respected) policemen in MACUSA. He ''will not stop'' in his pursuit of evildoers even 80 years after he was forced to drop a case thanks to political pressure. [[note]]Charles Deckard nodded sharply with a smile that had no warmth or mercy. "Yes, me, Simon. I told you when you walked on the charges for those abductions and murders of No-Maj children from the bayous in 1934 thanks to the judge being bought off that I'd see you swing one day. Guess that day's today." He looked over at the members of the FBI Hostage Rescue Team that had just cleared the complex with him. "Just remember, keep him warded, cuffed, and magemasked so he can't escape his court date with twelve men good and true. Learned from Grouse to never give these fuckers a chance to wiggle out once you get the drop on them."[[/note]]
370	* CombatPragmatist: Despite being a very powerful, extremely experienced, and highly trained wizard, is not afraid to use nonmagical tools to get the job done. This started due to being a son of a Select, but it waned when he began learning magic and how effective it could be compared to what he had learned of No-Maj techniques. Then he had a near-death experience alongside Delilah fighting [[Literature/TheRelic a horribly cursed murderous creature in New York during 1881]] that was extremely resistant to magic but not [[BoomHeadshot Delilah's bullet to the brain]]. The day after killing the monstrosity and covering up what had happened to preserve the Masquerade, Charles went firearms shopping while leaning on Delilah to teach him how to shoot at her level.
371	* HeterosexualLifePartners: With his protege Delilah De Breuil. This began when they were both [[FireForgedFriendship bullied children in Ilvermony's Thunderbird House]] because he was a MageBornOfMuggles and she had rumors about her DisappearedDad and resulting irregular birth out of wedlock.
372	* OldMaster: Decades older than Dumbledore but still leading an FBI SWAT team from the front during the bust of TOTEM's top necromancer. The only reason he didn't kick in the door personally was that he had a shipgirl available to breach the locked lab.
373	* OpenSaysMe: When faced with a door enchanted against lock-picking "the physical door was wood, the lock brass. Both yielded to Charles' boot."
374	* PapaWolf: While he himself is childless, he pulled himself out of technical retirement to personally search for his brother's last descendant who had gone missing, presumed dead, during a humanitarian mission off the coast of Africa.
375	* SecretKeeper: Had a fair few suspicions about Delilah being a member of the Winters Network, her relationships with first Louise Winona and then Zamarad, and that there there was something up with her antique heirloom revolver (which he never brought up).

378	[[folder: Cuthbert Rappaport]]
379	Sabrina Rappaport's eight year old brother.
380	----
381	* TheAtoner: Is shaping up to be this once he grows up so he can make it up to Sabrina from being left behind by the No-Maj.
382	* MyGreatestFailure: Letting go of his younger sister's hand during the family's emergency evacuation to the MAYFLOWER bunker, which resulted in her being left behind.

385	[[folder: Sabrina Rappaport[[spoiler: /Salem]]]]
386	The five year old daughter of the Rappaport family. [[spoiler: Also the Unawakened Natural-born shipgirl of the ''Des Moines''-class heavy cruiser USS Salem (CA-139)]]
387	----
388	* BadassAdorable: She's five years old, blonde haired, cute as a button, sweet, innocent, and carries around a collection of plushies (Miss Purr, Mr. Alleygater, and Miss Wags) who are her 'bestest friends'. She's '''also''' [[spoiler: the unawakened spirit of a US Navy big-gun heavy cruiser design who can [[MoreDakka fling an 8" shell at you every 2/3 a second with lethal accuracy when ripple firing her turrets]]]]. As a result of being a shipgirl spirit she is a frighteningly powerful (albeit currently untrained) witch who instinctively threw up a Shield Spell which tanked the 5" HE shell which demolished her family's home.
389	* HappilyAdopted: By Wilma after being functionally orphaned when the Abyssals attacked her home town of Salem, Massachusetts.
