Sundowner
"Sundowner"
A crazed young man with seemingly limitless tenacity. He keeps his past close and his fights only for himself.- Ax-Crazy: He doesn't have a shred of mercy; killing or letting others die so that he can advance through the Rings of Rebirth unhindered.
- Eyes Out of Sight: His eyes are constantly obscured by his messy light-blue hair.
- Guile Hero: Averted in a moral sense, as he's anything but heroic. He rarely uses weaponry and instead prefers to deceive others or trick them into killing themselves.
- Indy Ploy: From the looks of things, almost everything he does is improvised and in the moment.
- Obfuscating Stupidity: Sundowner acts aloof and carefree, even pretending he doesn't understand how things work most of the time. It's all a ruse. He does this to throw others off his track, making it seem like he's going to be one of the first to die.
- Only Known by Their Nickname: Currently his real name is unknown, but it doesn't stop others from calling him "Sundowner" due to his manic state of mind and restlessness.
- Slasher Smile: Dips in and out of this and a Psychotic Smirk, but his tactical bloodlust shows through his expressions.

- All Men Are Perverts: He's one of the perviest Reprobates, but keeps it well-hidden.
- Lovable Rogue: Comes across as one. He's really just a bad boy who loves the ladies and his goofy narcissism helps distance him from the far more evil characters in the series.
- Nice Guys Finish Last: Has this mentality towards other guys, but in more of a romantic sense rather than survival-of-the-fittest.
- No Historical Figures Were Harmed: Takes his namesake from the "Casanova Killer", Paul John Knowles.

"Neon Deon" (55th)
Deon (Codename: Neon Deon)

- No Historical Figures Were Harmed: His namesake comes from the American serial killer Darren Deon Vann.

Dennis Morin (Codename: The Moron)
- Born Lucky: His luck is the primary reason he's even still alive after several of the ordeals the Reprobates have faced.
- Droit du Seigneur: He believes it's his right to take what's his as the victor of several Rings of Rebirth, leading to him attempting to rape one of the Reprobates during a trial.
- Embarrassing Nickname: It can't get much worse than "The Moron". Sada calls him "Morokin", essentially the Japanese equivalent of the same insult.

- Entitled Bastard: His successes in the Rings of Rebirth lead to him devolving from an originally Endearingly Dorky guy to a hated prick that believes he's a king in the making. Everything he was denied in his previous life, he fully intends to take for himself in the afterlife.
- Evil Nerd: He's a bit chubby and kind of a giant dork, but his ability to rationalize betrayal and murder for the sake of his own survival (and in some cases just because he dislikes someone) makes him one of the most despicable Reprobates.
- Fat Bastard: His descent into debauchery and violence quickly results in him becoming this.
- No Historical Figures Were Harmed: His namesake comes from the serial killers Dennis Rader and Stephen Morin.
