6
7!! Andreas Darlton
8A subordinate and confidante of Cornelia's and father to many sons, also members of Cornelia's knights. He is killed by Lelouch during the Black Rebellion.
9
10%% * [[spoiler: TheAce: After his death, he's already a mid ranking officer in 11th Division, despite not being in the Gotei for that long.]]
11%% ** [[spoiler: He's yet to learn his Zanpakuto's name though.]]
12* BigGood: During Cornelia's arc as a general in the Imperial Army
13* FourStarBadass
14
15!! C.C[[spoiler:/Breena Mac-Clain]]
16An immortal witch that can grant the power of Geass. [[spoiler: Interestingly enough [[TemporalParadox the first time she meets Lelouch is not the first time he has met her, but the first time Lelouch meets her is not the first time she meets him]]]].
17
18%% * [[spoiler:CameBackWrong: To save her life after [[ItMakesSenseInContext Aizen tricks him into stabbing her]], Lelouch turns CC into a Substitute Soul Reaper, but she loses her memory post-Code acquisition as a result]].
19%% * DeadpanSnarker
20%% * [[spoiler: DamselInDistress: Captured by Kasumi for insurance when she planned to attack the Soul King but now is in Aizen's hands.]]
21%% * [[spoiler: {{Depower}}: Aizen takes her code.]]
22%% ** [[spoiler: {{Repower}}: She gets Shinigami abilities thanks to Lelouch.]]
23%% * [[spoiler: IdentityAmnesia: Post repower, she reverts to the state seen in R2. She's still has regained them as of 2026, 5 years after the event.]]
24%% * [[spoiler:ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: '''''[[PrecisionFStrike FUCK]]''''' '''''YOU AIZEN'''''!]]
25%% * [[spoiler: MeaningfulName: Her real name is of Gaelic origin and means Water droplet. [[ShownTheirWork draconichero really does everything he can, doesn’t he?]]]]
26* PetTheDog: When Nagisa reveals that she was raped by Britannians in between R1 and R2 along with many other female prisoners, in hopes that they would give up information, C.C sympathizes with her.
27** She tells Lelouch anything and everything he wants to know about his mother. Keep in mind that she just ignored Lelouch’s questions in canon.
28* SecretKeeper: of many things about Lelouch’s parents that he didn’t know, which she reveals to him when they meet [[spoiler:after he slays his [[FishOutOfTemporalWater not yet temporally displaced self]]]]. And she also keeps Lelouch’s secret that he actually does like Nunnally [[BrotherSisterIncest in that way]] because Lelouch threatens her with a FateWorseThanDeath.
29%% ** She also keeps it a secret [[spoiler:to the living Lelouch about his dead counterpart]].
30* WhoWantsToLiveForever: She tells Lelouch she seems okay with the prospect now considering he gave her the will to live by teaching her that happiness can be found in a world of lies and, though it’s not explicitly stated, though confirmed by draconichero’s [[WordOfDante impressions of their relationship]] that CC also knows that it’s still possible for her to find love.
31
32!! Euphemia li Britannia
33Lelouch's half sister and Cornelia's younger full blood sister. An innocent [[WideEyedIdealist]] who died tragically when Lelouch's Geass went on the fritz and has accidentally and unintentionally geassed her to kill all the Japanese and has forced Lelouch to kill her. To make matters worse, Lelouch lets Euphie [[WhatTheHellHero take the blame for his mistake and the public gives her the undeserving name of "Princess Massacre" as a result]] and Lelouch regrets it ever since. Like Shirley's death, Euphie's death and the massacre that happened in the aftermath still haunts Lelouch to this day and is considered the biggest sin he has ever committed second only to Zero Requiem. [[spoiler:Starting in the Wish Fulfillment arc she is now a Soul Reaper in Lelouch's squad]].
34
35%% * [[spoiler: TheAce: Regarded as a prodigy in the Shinigami arts, being the latest to graduate from the academy early, one of only 7 to do so (The others being Yoruichi, Mari, Kaien, Gin, Toshiro, Senna in that order).]]
36%% * [[spoiler:AttemptedRape: Several of her subordinates try this on her during her the Wish Fulfillment arc. Hisana puts a stop to that.]]
37* EarnYourHappyEnding: A firm believer of this as noted in chapter 158. [[spoiler:Gets it in 189 when [[OfficialCouple she is reunited with Suzaku]].]]
38%% * [[spoiler:TookALevelInBadass: She is a Soul Reaper starting in the Wish Fulfillment arc. Considering she never physically fought before[[note]]the Euphinator incident not withstanding[[/note]] this already is enough. That and she's now this generation's child prodigy following [[RoyalBrat Rurichiyo]] and [[AnIcePerson Hitsugaya]]]].
39
40!! Gilbert G.P. Guilford
41Cornelia's personal knight. Supposedly was killed when the F.L.E.I.J.A. warhead detonated, but somehow survived. %% [[spoiler:He didn't survive the F.L.E.I.J.A. explosion. He is currently a whole following Cornelia around]]. When he and Cornelia first met each other [[BodyguardingABadass she wasn't too keen on having him around]], but after [[spoiler: Guinevere]] sets a trap for her that leads to Cornelia murdering an entire Britannian settlement and Guilford makes several phone calls up the chain of command to get Nonette to bail her out]] Cornelia is taken aback by his UndyingLoyalty she warms up to him and the two begin the road towards the [[BodyguardCrush close knit relationship]] we see between them in canon.
42
43* BodyguardingABadass: Cornelia even lampshades how she doesn't believe she needs Guilford's protection because she is a [[RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething Britannian Princess]] and an ActionGirl.
44%% * [[spoiler:DeadAllAlong]]: For those wondering how he miraculously survived FLEIJA[[spoiler:: he did not]].
45%% * [[spoiler:DyingMomentOfAwesome]]: To let Cornelia [[spoiler:escape getting eaten by Hollow Zero]] Guilford [[spoiler:leaps onto Zero's back and holds him back just as his existence as a whole comes to an end. With his hollow powers he then proceeds to perform a [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann Giga Drill Break]] impersonation and attacks Zero head on. It creates a pillar of reiryoku seen from blocks away. Unfortunately, it fails to impact the Vasdo Lordes at all]].
46%% * [[spoiler:KilledOffForReal: By Hollow Zero]].
47* UndyingLoyalty[[spoiler:: Even after his own death. EVEN AS A HOLLOW!]]
48
49!! Guinevere su Britannia
50The first princess of the Britannia Royal Family and the only older sister Cornelia has.
51
52* AlasPoorVillain: She ''kind of'' deserves some [[LaserGuidedKarma karmic backlash]] for [[ManipulativeBitch all she’s pulled]], but after she [[GracefulLoser gracefully accepts defeat at Nunnally’s hands]][[note]]and seems like she might be trying to become a better person[[/note]] you may not be as joyful of her death a few scenes later.
53* BrilliantButLazy: As Cornelia notes, Guinevere has a very good political head on her shoulders, but hardly puts it into practice.
54* GracefulLoser: When Nunnally defeats her and ultimately becomes Empress, Guinevere says that she’s simply tired and actually decides to take a walk.
55* ManipulativeBitch: The narration in ch 152 indicates that Guinevere is very good at being one of these.
56%% * [[spoiler: KilledOffForReal: By Hollow Zero]]
57* OCStandIn: Partially. The author fabricated Guinevere’s entire personality and aspects based on a [[ShownTheirWork little bit of research]] on Marie Antoinette since it was said on Website/TheOtherWiki that Guinevere is often referred to as Britannia’s version of her.
58* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Guinevere’s mother, Farah, is concerned Guinevere may have a fever or be drunk because Guinevere never accepts defeat [[GracefulLoser so casually]] and she’s always having her consorts carry her above the streets. She ''never'' “takes a walk”.
59* PetTheDog: Guinevere lets Nunnally stay with her when she is brought back to Pendragon and revealed to be alive.
60%% * RichBitch: Yup that's a...yup. [[{{FOIL}} It contrasts]] with how Cornelia is nice.
61* VillainWithGoodPublicity: She's not strictly a villain so to speak, but every time we see her she's playing an antagonistic role to Cornelia and she IS a daughter of the empire too. Guinevere has lots of friends in high places and she is one of the more famous members of the Britannian Royal Family. [[spoiler:However, when she and Cornelia commit to public warfare and Cornelia [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness sheds a tear]] on national television, Guinevere's popularity DROPS like a rock in the eyes of the Britannian public. However, she still keeps most of her contacts]].
62
63!! Kallen Kozuki
64The AcePilot of the Black Knights. Understood what Lelouch was trying to do with Zero Requiem after she witnessed him being stabbed. [[spoiler: Later develops a Fullbring called 'Black Queen' and joins the Knights Of The Round]].
65
66%% * [[spoiler: EnemyMine: Subverted; after Zero Requiem, she's at a complete loose end at what to do with her life; captain Lelouch comes to her in Gigai and suggests she join her former mortal enemy; The Knights Of The Round. By the time of Permanent Sinner, she's back in the Guren and having a good scuffle with TheStarscream (literally, it's [[Franchise/{{Transformers}} Starscream!)]]]]
67* PosthumousCharacter: An inversion. It's not her that's dead it's Lelouch and she's only seen in flashbacks [[spoiler:and [[VillainProtagonist Zero]]'s perspective]] until the [[spoiler:Double Zero]] arc. [[spoiler:Not of course counting her canon apperances in the Within Zero's Shadow and Pursuit of the Truth arcs]].
68%% * [[spoiler: TookALevelInBadass: She now has a Fullbring.]]
69* WhatTheHellHero: She thoroughly chews Inoue out for [[spoiler:using refrain]]. Is that [[MythologyGag a regular occurence Kallen]]? ...[[DudeNotFunny What?]]
70
71%% !! [[spoiler: Eleventh Prince Lelouch vi Britannia]]
72%% [[spoiler: While [[HeroProtagonist Captain of Squad Ten: Lelouch Lamperouge]] is undoubtably the hero. Due to the TemporalParadox there are instances of his younger, very much alive, self involved in the plot of Cornelia's arc. He later becomes the Vasdo Lordes known as Zero. See his entry [[Characters/SoulChessMainAntagonists on this page]] for more details]].
73
74%% * [[spoiler:ArmorPiercingQuestion: He really gets under Marianne’s skin with his questions during the incident with the Sword of Akasha. Not that he’s aware]].
75%% * [[spoiler: BrattyHalfPint: Look back at the flashbacks and Cornelia's arc. He qualifies]].
76%% * [[spoiler: ChildProdigy]]
77%% * [[spoiler: FlashbackToCatchphrase: "Leaders must always be willing to take action. If a general is not there fighting beside his troops, or any leader alongside his or her men and women, how can the soldiers expect to follow." Cornelia was the one who brought up his "if the king doesn't go into battle his men won't follow" ideal.]]
78%% * [[spoiler: FutureBadass: Kind of a ForegoneConclusion [[WeakButSkilled considering]] [[GuileHero the]] [[AuthorityEqualsAsskicking person]] [[TheChessmaster he]] [[KnightTemplarBigBrother becomes]].]]
79%% ** [[spoiler: [[BreakTheCutie And]] [[RhetoricalRequestBlunder all]] [[ILetGwenStacyDie the]] [[DespairEventHorizon heartache]] [[HarsherInHindsight he would face]].]]
80%% * [[spoiler: HeroAntagonist <--> VillainAntagonist: Arguably.]]
81%% * [[spoiler:SecretKeeper: Cornelia tells him of her continued investigation into the Inked Alliance despite having it suspended]].
82
83!! Mao
84A former contract partner of CC's. Mao's geass gives him the ability to [[{{Telepathy}} read minds]]. However, he can't shut it off. After his death he comes back as a hollow with similar mind reading capabilities since geass powers are not supposed to carry over after death]].
85%% He then later [[spoiler:becomes an adjuchas and then right after that an arrancar. He gets better in Soul Society when he finds out about C.C. living there.]]
86
87%% * [[spoiler: EarnYourHappyEnding: After doing time in the Maggot's Nest, he's reunited with CC; trouble is she doesn't remember him, so he makes an effort to reacquiant himself with her, this time not in a StalkerWithACrush sort of way, and enter the academy.]]
88%% * [[spoiler: [[HeelFaceTurn Heel Neutral Turn]]: After his release from the Maggot's Nest.]]
89%% * [[spoiler:NearVillainVictory]]: As a hollow Mao kidnaps [[spoiler:Milly]] and says he’ll make [[spoiler:her]] make nice friends with Mr. Concrete. Lelouch isn’t able to save [[spoiler:her]] in time which [[spoiler:if she hit the ground would’ve undone the TemporalParadox a la ButterflyEffect]]. If not for [[spoiler:Momo’s]] BigDamnHeroes moment, Lelouch would’ve been in hot water.
90%% * PlayingWithFire: As an arrancar and adjuchas.
91%% * PowerGivesYouWings
92* ReptilesAreAbhorrent: As a hollow Mao’s form takes that of a reptile[=/=]dragon.
93%% * [[spoiler:UnhandThemVillain: See NearVillainVictory above. The moment is caused by Lelouch telling Mao to let Milly go]].
94
95!! Marianne vi Britannia
96Lelouch's mother. It is her [[spoiler:eventual]] death that is the catalyst for Lelouch's actions to speak out against his father and be banished. She, much to Lelouch's ire, shared Charles' view on the world and now all of Lelouch's good memories of her are now forever soured.
97%% [[spoiler: Since revived by Lelouch and accepted into the Royal Guard (aka the [[BadassCrew Zero Squad]]). Her Zanpakuto is Hiiro Kishi (Scarlet Knight). Her Bankai is Hiiro Kishi Mitsugi: Tsubasa Kogo (Scarlet Knight Tribute: Winged Empress).]]
98
99%% * ActionMom
100%% * [[spoiler: AwesomenessByAnalysis: Read 2,130 books from the [[GreatBigLibraryOfEverything Library of Infinite Knowledge]]. We know who Lelouch got his analytical side from.]]
101%% ** [[spoiler:Exaggerated with her scuffle with Aizen; the library contains info on all Zanpakuto, Shikai and Bankai. She knows what Aizen's Bankai can do (and it's limitations) before they even meet; he has to resort to TakingYouWithMe to prevail.]]
102* BadassBoast: In the Wish Fulfillment arc. [[spoiler:To Talbumosuke]]
103--> '''Marianne:''' I will show you the power of the one once titled Marianne the Flash.
104* BadassBookworm: Marianne reads from books from the [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Library of Infinite Knowledge]]. Apparently lesser minds can only read from 48. Aizen and Mayuri are said to only be able to read 1000. By the time of her demise in C’s World [[spoiler:aka the Royal Dimension]], Marianne has read 2,130 books. Well Lelouch's brilliance had to come from somewhere.
105* BerserkButton: Watch her [[UnstoppableRage fly off the handle]] at Aizen when he tells her [[spoiler:He killed her parents and burned down her house when she was small]]
106--> '''Marianne''': [[spoiler: '''[[PunctuatedForEmphasis YOU RUINED! MY LIFE!]]''']]
107* BullyingADragon: Picks a fight with [[spoiler: Aizen. She ALMOST WON!]]
108%% * [[spoiler: ByThePowerOfGrayskull: 'Equip, Hiiro Kishi.' and 'Bankai: Hiiro Kishi Mitsugi: Tsubasa Kogo'.)]]
109* CannotSpitItOut: During the Sword of Akasha incident it’s stated that she wants to apologize, but the words keep getting stuck in her throat.
110%% * [[spoiler: TheChessmaster: In cahoots with Rita to get rid of Soul King; looks like SK's prophecy didn't quite turn out like he envisaged.]]
111%% * [[spoiler: ChildSoldiers: Joined the Britannian Military the same age Cornelia did at the academy: [[LittleMissBadass 9]].]]
112* CombatPragmatist: She knows that [[spoiler: a lot of Talbumosuke's combat effectiveness comes from his Bankai; [[TalkingIsAFreeAction she simply doesn't give him the time or space to release it]]. [[CurbStompBattle And promptly beats the snot out of him.]]]]
113%% * [[spoiler:CrazyPrepared: Marianne was all set and ready in case the Sword of Akasha plan failed. Moreover, it was this trope and AwesomenessByAnalysis that she was able to nearly defeat Aizen, he only won by using a TakingYouWithMe attack.]]
114* CurbstompBattle: Against the Inked Alliance[[spoiler:, Talbumosuke, and Mayuri, Kira, Szayel and Misama. Aizen is the only one to give her trouble thus far]].
115%% * [[spoiler:HeelFaceTurn: After reconstructing her soul body with the help of the research department, Lelouch gives his mother a second chance rather than condemning her to the same non-existence as his father. She takes it]].
116%% * [[spoiler: MamaBear: Don't mess with Marianne's children. She will kill you with no questions asked [[KnightTemplarParent and all of your comrades too]]. No questions asked, no second chances, no negotiations]]
117* [[OneManArmy One Woman Army]]: After an incident very similar to 9/11, Britannia locks in on the terrorists location with the assistance of Japan. They send only Marianne to deal with all of them.
118%% ** [[spoiler: She's also capable of soloing TALBUMOSUKE.]]
119%% * [[spoiler: PassingTheTorch: To Cornelia in regards to taking down the Inked Alliance.]]
120%% * [[spoiler: RetiredBadass: No this does not contradict the above. When she was alive, Marianne retired from being a Knight of the Round, though it was more like forced retirement]].
121* ShoutOut: [[spoiler: Her zanpakuto powers; to Ezra from Fairy Tail, with a little bit of Roronoa Zoro from One Piece.]]
122* WhenAllYouHaveIsAHammer: When terrorists attack Cornelia's family's mansion and cut the power, Marianne makes a temporary solution to fix the problem by tying back together the incredibly thin fibers with [[MundaneMadeAwesome strands of her hair]].
123
124!! Naomi Inoue
125A blue haired woman who becomes a member of the Black Knights and joined the resistance when Naoto was still leading it. She is killed during the Black Rebellion. %% [[spoiler:Naomi is just an alias. This woman is really Orihime Inoue. See her page on Characters/SoulChessIchigosNakama for more details]].
126
127* OneSteveLimit: Fans become confused if you’re talking about her or Orihime. [[spoiler:Then it’s subverted when it turns out in the Within Zero’s Shadow arc that they’re the same person and Naomi is just an alias because Orihime [[ItMakesSenseInContext is a wanted criminal by Britannia]]]].
128
129!! Nonnette Enneagram
130Cornelia's superior in the military academy. Nonette is described as being casual, laidback, and a [[TheDitz little]] [[CloudCuckoolander out there]] [[ObfuscatingStupidity but when]] [[LetsGetDangerous push comes to shove]] she [[BewareTheNiceOnes snaps to attention]].
131
132* AcePilot: Oh is she ever! See BadassNormal below.
133* BadassNormal: She is such an AcePilot that it takes the combined efforts of the Lancelot Albion ''and'' the Shinkiron to defeat her and destroy her Knightmare the Elizabeth. She has no geass and no spiritual power. She’s just that good. For comparison: Bismarck Waldstein, the Knight of One, was defeated by Suzaku alone and he has a geass that can see into the future.
134%% * [[spoiler:BigSleep: Much to Cornelia’s dismay]].
135* CloudCuckooLander: Suzaku denotes that he can't understand her way of thinking sometimes.
136%% * CoolBigSis: To Cornelia
137* IntergenerationalFriendship: Nonette is nine years older than Cornelia.
138%% * [[spoiler: KilledOffForReal: In 171]]
139* MarshmallowHell: Gives this to Suzaku to try and help him feel welcomed as part of the Knights of the Round.
140%% * [[spoiler:ReallyDeadMontage: As she dies Cornelia begins to remember all the happy moments they spent together]].
141* StatuesqueStunner: [[ArtisticLicense For the fic's purposes]] the author says he has Nonette clocked at a startling 6' 3" (190cm)
142%% ** [[spoiler: Lampshades this in Soul Society, with the Gotei's one-size-fits-all uniforms]].
143
144!! Nunnally vi Britannia
145Lelouch's younger sister and the main reason why he did what he has done when he was alive. [[spoiler:[[ISeeDeadPeople The OTHER sibling who can see[=/=]sense spirits]]. Captain Lelouch discovered this by [[YouCanSeeMe direct contact]].]]
146
147%% * [[spoiler: ISeeDeadPeople: Well, when she could see anyway. She could probably still sense them during the time she was blind]].
148%% ** [[spoiler: Confirmed in chapter 170.]]
149* MythologyGag: This wouldn't be [[Manga/CodeGeassNightmareOfNunnally the first time]] Nunnally has been able to [[spoiler:See people that other people cannot]].
150* TheEmpress: [[ForegoneConclusion 100th Empress of Britannia]] to be exact. [[spoiler:Becomes this as of chapter 174]].
151
152!! Rolo Lamperouge/Haliburton
153Lelouch's surrogate brother who was replaced with Nunnally when Charles replaced Lelouch's memories. He died protecting Lelouch, ultimately looking up to his big brother. Although he may have saved Lelouch's life, he still hasn't forgiven him for being responsible for Shirley's death.
154
155* CruelMercy: Lelouch spares Rolo, but tells him he doesn't want to see him again, '''''ever'''''. Rolo may not be going to hell, but he'll be wandering a large paradise denied of the one thing he would've wanted there that he knows is there.
156%%* KickTheDog: Depending on how you feel about Rolo, Lelouch’s verbal lashing of him [[spoiler:prior to providing his Konso]] will look like this.
157* PutOnABus: Unlike everyone else [[spoiler:[[OneSteveLimit Captain]]]] Lelouch has encountered during the course of the series to perform a Konso on, Rolo is told not to come to the Seireitei or Lelouch ''will'' kill him.
158
159!! Schneizel El Britannia
160Second prince of the Britannia Royal Family. Lelouch's half brother and the only person Lelouch has never once beaten at a game of chess. Schneizel is [[spoiler: [[TemporalParadox or rather will be]]]] under the influence of Lelouch's geass to make him serve Zero whose identity is currently Suzaku Kururugi.
161
162* GetAHoldOfYourselfMan: Is forced to restrain Cornelia when she goes absolutely off the walls and [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown almost kills Guinevere]] because she [[DisproportionateRetribution insulted Marianne]]. Granted, Cornelia was still recovering from her death.
163* PetTheDog: Helps Cornelia out of her HeroicBSOD
164
165!! Shirley Fenette
166Lelouch's classmate who had a crush on him. Her death [[spoiler: as seen with Yuna]] still seems to haunt Lelouch to this day.
167
168* IdenticalStranger: Her and Orihime are noted to be very similar by Lelouch.
169** Orihime herself notes this.
170%% * [[spoiler: OneTrueThreesome: With Captain Lelouch and Susanna.]]
171%% ** [[spoiler: Comes with Lelouch x Shirley being the writer's OneTruePairing from canon, though he does rate Lelouch x CC and Lelouch x Kallen highly too.]]
172
173!! Suzaku Kururugi
174Lelouch's childhood friend since his exile from the empire.
175%% He is currently [[spoiler:[[TemporalParadox Until we move past the Zero Requiem timeline]]]] acting as the second Zero since he is believed to be dead by the rest of the world. Lelouch still considers Suzaku to be a very good friend. [[spoiler:He has spiritual power enough to be affected by the spiritual realm, but not enough to see spirits. During Permanent Sinner, he manifests his Fullbring, Knight Of Honor.]].
176
177%% * [[spoiler: FlyingBrick: His Fullbring, which manifests as a scaled down, supercharged Lancelot.]]
178* StaringDownCthulhu: In chapter 164 where he refuses to blink as Nonette gives him an [[DeathGlare icy stare]] while the other Knights of the round look at him like he’s got a death wish. BrassBalls Suzaku is not without.
179%% ** [[spoiler: In 171 it becomes DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu Okay, he had Lelouch to give him a hand, but still...]]
