->'''Class:''' Air Support

* BattleCouple: Though they aren't a couple when they were still partners, Clarice has feelings for the Commander, and the Commander implicitly trusts her in return. [[spoiler:An alternate ending when you make the choice to run away with Clarice from Wade Bunard's conspiracy (and leave your AG trio to their fates as guinea pigs) has them [[CarChaseShootOut racing on a motorbike together while they're being chased by assailants]], acting closer to each other than ever.]]

!!! Zhimin

[[folder:[=QingYan=] Cheng]]

* GamerGirl: [[HiddenDepths For someone who's acts as a professional soldier and leader]], she has a love for video games.

* WhenAllYouHaveIsAHammer: She loves her cannons and is most often using them to blast away her problems.

In spite of the ever-threatening Puppets, precious few means of fighting them and the lack of Artery Gears at the time, the humans left on the Ground were able to band together and form an alliance to wage war against the Puppets. Though there is a council formed by human leaders, their war is dictated by an AI, the Head, also named Atlas.

* BitchInSheepsClothing: If it wasn't obvious that her SlasherSmile means bad things are about to happen, and she'd do it ForTheEvulz:
** She pretends to be an innocent medic new to the field that hates seeing unnecessary deaths. This is revealed to be a ploy to bug the Union’s Artery Gears.
** In Episode 3, she conspires with Grafframe to damage the relationship between the Union and the Frontier, and disrupt their plan to take out the Rift Octopus, leading to casualties amongst allied [=AGs=], and getting Mel sucked into a portal.

* ForWantOfANail: In the past, the Commander told her that they'd be sad to see her die. Though taken aback at that moment, she greatly appreciated it and wished that had they been "born in Autoluna, [she] might want to keep living."

* BoobsOfSteel: Has an inhuman strength despite lacking prosthetics to match her prominent chest.

A recent arrival who has joined the Union as the Commander's deputy officer. Though she does not have much experience in war, she makes up for it with a dedication and friendliness.

A stoic Melee-type Artery Gear meant not only to cut down Puppets with her twin swords, but also Puppetized [=AGs=]--if not traitorous [=AGs=] as well. And if she is reviled by everyone, then she sees no issue with it as a soldier to the core.

[[folder:Clarice '''(Unmarked Spoilers for Season 1!)''']]

* InadequateInheritor: The Commander is this to Lin. [=QingYan=] mentions that Lin wanted the Commander to be her successor, but the master herself refutes it since he only learned [[CripplingOverspecialization grappling techniques for human combat]].

* TheAce: The Commander is so skilled in battle planning that they earn the respect of the Union and Frontier fleets immediately during the prologue, despite how nothing else is known about them besides combat ability; this trait of theirs gets showcased in nearly every episode afterwards that Atlas comes to rate them highly for their unconventional tactics. When their past is explored in later main story episodes, he turns out to be pretty good for a soldier of Frontier, having been trained by martial artist Master Lin in his home country that he could have been her successor.

* BadassNormal: In a world where body modifications are virtually a requirement for fighting other likewise modified enemies, Master Lin stands out for making do with ''[[NeverBringAKnifeToAFistFight just her bare fists and footwork against a lightning-fast Artery Gear with a sword]]'' to a draw, [[WorthyOpponent making her opponent admit to her prowess]] [[labelnote:Spoiler]]In Episode 13, she fights Ivana, who admits only Alma gave her as much trouble.[[/labelnote]]. It's only fitting that a BadassTeacher like her could train the Commander to be one for all his more mundane traits.

[[folder:Lisa Autoluna]]

* BitchInSheepsClothing: Lisa Autoluna at first appears to be a kind, easygoing and dorky queen that is HopelessWithTech. [[spoiler:Then she lies to an entire population of humans at Sky Port, makes plans to forcibly turn humans into Artery Gears and send them to their deaths, and proposes a takeover of Frontier fleets to Atlas. Under her command, she constantly promotes false narratives of the Frontier and Union fleets and paints her nation as being superior to them. Her final plan is to take over the Ground and leave anyone who doesn’t fit her high standards to die.]]
* ForgottenFirstMeeting: [[spoiler:She actually met the Commander in secret before she became queen, as first seen in Episode 12, "Beyond Singularity III", then detailed further in Episode 13, "No Regret II" from her point of view. At the time, she used Fidel's name, and discussed about their [[ToBeLawfulOrGood philosophies on creating a utopia]] in exchange for helping the Commander get to Anna Autoluna. The discussion let Lisa [[HeelRealization see her ideas of a utopia were closer to nihility]] rather than [[LivingIsMoreThanSurviving one full of human spirit]], though unfortunately this passion was ultimately channeled into creating a utopia where she judges who's worthy of it.]]
* HopelessWithTech: Queen Lisa Autoluna is extremely bad at understanding technology. She accidentally sends an emergency call instead of a regular one, is unsure if others can hear her, and is unable to figure out how to disconnect. [[spoiler:Then in Chapter 10 when Clarice barges into the throne room and they get into a fight, the queen [[SubvertedTrope has no problem using the sensors placed around the palace to relay the Puppet Master's hidden position]] to her knight Isabelle. Clarice calls her out on the "I don't know much about electronic equipment" [[ObfuscatingStupidity façade]].]]

[[folder:Qingyan Cheng]]

* BoobsOfSteel: Has an inhuman strength despite being non-augmented to match her prominent chest.

* IWantGrandkids: Master Lin isn't biologically related to the Commander and Qingyan, and she doesn't say it this way, but the way she says, "Ahem, you two are making me impatient. Why don't you guys organize a banquet and make things official?" in Episode 13 carries the spirit of the trope.
* InadequateInheritor: The Commander is this to Lin. Qingyan mentions that Lin wanted the Commander to be her successor, but the master herself refutes it since he only learned grappling techniques for human combat.

* OlderThanTheyLook: At the very least, she used to be in a high-enough position to affect globally-related affairs of Zhimin before she retired, and speaks to the Commander and Qingyan like they're younger, if less experienced in worldly matters. Despite all that, she's an attractive woman seemingly in her twenties or thirties.
