An IG7 collaborator who is first referenced in Round 1, first contacted in Round 3, and first shown in the Round 4 leadup. She's been on their payroll for longer than most of the other characters listed here, yet knows a lot more than many of their Overseers and still hasn't been backstabbed -- probably because she's doing most of the backstabbing.

Mysterious forces beyond the Overseers' ken who alone hold the key to the Hold. They are responsible for funding the experiment and providing the Champions with various regains.

One of the Benefactors or someone above them. Their goal is to produce an Ultimate Champion and ultimate suffering, whichever comes first.

* CorruptCorporateExecutive: [[spoiler:Produces a hit show about murder that, unbeknownst to the viewers, isn't really fictional.]]
* ExactWords: E.P. will usually fall to this to keep control over a situation when offering things. Sometimes this is for gameplay reasons; for example, their late Round 1 conversation with [[spoiler:Xander, where he reluctantly agrees to kill Bolton only if they end the lockdown (which itself was a result of ExactWords) and don't pull from his home again]]. That would block a popular canon from application in future rounds, but the way they answer ensures that it remains mostly open.

* ManipulativeBastard: They'll offer anything to their pawns to get them to act, even if the terms contradict and especially if it'll result in broken bonds. (It's to the point that you might think all the ships dying is intentional on their part...)
* OnlyKnownByInitials: They only give their initials, even to their allies.
