Protagonists

    Lelouch 

Lelouch Lmaperouge/Lelouch vi Britannia, Eleventh Prince of Britannia, Seventeenth in line for the throne

One of the two main protagonists of the story.
  • Adaptational Badass: In canon, Lelouch's only personal combat skills amounted to some training with guns, and while certainly having an admirable physique, he was absolutely pitiful in physical activity, being outrun by numerous characters in attires that heavily limited their movements. Here, Lelouch is a Tenno, with all the physical benefits that entails.
  • Child of Two Worlds: Lelouch is the child of Britannian Royalty on his father's side and Orokin Aristocracy/Dax through his mother's. While nothing is currently stated, all evidence implies that he is closer to his mother's side of the family.
  • Composite Character: To the Operator from Warframe.
  • Experienced Protagonist: Has already been fighting in the Origin System for years by the time the events of the story take place. Word of God is that he and Nunnally have gone through every single story event and quest up to this point in Warframe (including the Deadlock Protocol) except for Operation Scarlet Spear. Later dialogue implies this was amended to be sometime between Scarlet Spear and Orphix Venom.
  • Foil: To C.C. - both are humans who gained a special power (A code for C.C., Power of the Void for Lelouch) by another being, and were subjected to horrific experiments due to this. But while C.C. tends to willingly isolate herself from others, Lelouch instead chose to retain his bonds with others (and has a power that literally depends on his bonds with others - his warframes, to be exact).
  • The Older Immortal: Ironically, he's this to C.C. - the Code Bearer implied to be from France during The Hundred Years War, putting her maximum age at around 535 years, while Lelouch is implied to have spent millennia in the Origin System, albeit most of that time being spent in stasis.
  • The Stoic: Lelouch has his moments. Among other things, he tends to react with muted annoyance when in the presence of the Man in the Wall. His comments, though, confirm that he still sees the Man in the Wall as terrifying - he's just gotten used to his intruding at odd times.
  • Troll: Lelouch goes out of his way to mess with his elder half sister Guinevere (who is scared of ghosts) by launchin an assault on her with Sevagoth. She ends up in the middle of a small puddle due to fear.
    Nunnaly 

Nunnally Lamperouge/Nunnally vi Britannia, Eighty eighth in line for the throne

Lelouch's sister.
    C.C. 

C.C.

An immortal, green haired girl.
    The Man In The Wall 
A Humanoid Abomination from Warframe, implicitly connected to the Tenno's powers.
  • Adaptational Explanation: Currently, the Man in the Wall's motivations are unknown in Warframe. Here, Word of God and the story indicates he has the same motivation as The Outsider from Dishonored - he likes to give power to others and see how they act.
  • Foil: To C.C. - both are unfathomably powerful figures who offer supernatural powers to Lelouch, but their reasons for doing so and actions toward Lelouch are fundamentally differet. C.C. is a Really 700 Years Old girl who was given a Code of Immortality and wants to progress Lelouch's powers so he can eventually take her powers and die, while the Man in the Wall is a Humanoid Abomination that gave Lelouch power to see how Lelouch would use it. While C.C. (at least in canon) moves Lelouch to isolate himself from others to avoid suffering for both parties, the Man in the Wall encourages Lelouch to bond with his warframes to unlock the full potential of his powers.
  • Humanoid Abomination: His primary form is a humanoid shadow, but he can also take the form of any human touched by his powers, albeit with eyes that look like galaxies.
  • O.O.C. Is Serious Business: Canon and this story have the Man in the Wall as normally being a passive figure. However, when C.C. forms her contract with Lelouch, he gets noticeably active, first demanding that C.C. leave Lelouch's mindscape, and then give her a very clear warning that there will be consequences if C.C.'s actions bring harm to Lelouch.
  • Outside-Context Problem: His powers are completely unknown to the Code Geass universe, and its implied they are directly interfering with C.C.'s bond to Marianne.

    Ereshkigal 

Ereshkigal Kingsley

Lelouch's maternal grandmother, and an Orokin Executor.
  • Good Parents: Well, she raised Lelouch and Nunnally after they were brought over to the Warframe universe, and given that he has nothing bad to say about her, it can be assumed she was a good parent.
  • Religious and Mythological Theme Naming: She's named after a Mesopotamian underworld deity.
  • Revenge: Ultimately, this is why she is helping Lelouch - she's outlived all of her offspring (Marianne excluded, not that Eresh knows this) and thus desires to protect her grandchildren... even if that means avenging the slights made against them.
  • Token Good Teammate: By virtue of being the only Executor to show any amount of empathy.
  • Unexplained Recovery: Despite being an Orokin Executor, she somehow managed to survive The Purge the Tenno enacted against the Orokin and is still alive in the present day.
