!Revenants
Revenants are vampiric beings who are constantly thirsty for and drink blood. They have no memories of their human lives. If a Revenant goes without blood for a long time, he or she succumbs to bloodlust and becomes a Lost.
----
[[folder:In General]]
* BackFromTheDead: Revenants are more or less immortal beings, due to their vampiric nature. If they die, their body disperses into particles and then reforms, though the process can possibly cause memory loss. A Revenant can be killed permanently if the BOR Parasite, which is located inside their heart, is destroyed.
* BloodLust: A major problem for Revenants, who have to sake their thirst via human blood or Blood Beads, the latter of which are in short supply. Succumbing to their thirst for blood is also a sign that they are becoming a Lost.
* GasMaskLongcoat: Due to the miasma within Vein, Revenants are forced to wear gas masks, lest they are overtaken by bloodlust. Special mention goes to Mia, who wears a gas mask and with a long coat.
* HeWhoFightsMonsters: A Revenant that succumbs to their bloodlust becomes a Lost, the very thing they fight against. Gregorio Silva's war against Q.U.E.E.N caused the deaths of countless Revenants, as well as the birth of just as many Lost. The protagonist is on the verge of becoming one of the Lost themselves due to breathing in her miasma, thus forcing Jack to MercyKill them.
* KilledOffForReal: Despite being immortal, Revenants can be killed. If their heart - where the BOR Parasite resides - is destroyed, they will turn to ash. The Lost are exempt from this, as the BOR Parasite has bonded with them on the cellular level.
* OurVampiresAreDifferent: In the ''Code Vein'' universe, Revenants are humans who had to become bloodsucking creatures in order to adapt and survive the harsh conditions of the Vein. If they do feed on blood, they can become monstrous creatures known as the Lost, the result of a Revenant succumbing to bloodlust.
* ParasiteZombie: Of a sort. The Revenants all carry a parasite called BOR inside their hearts that allows them to constantly regenerate despite the parasite technically making them walking dead. The parasite however needs to be constantly fed or else it will start to erode both their body and mind, causing them to become Lost which are a more straight example of the trope.
* RedEyesTakeWarning: A Revenant's eyes glow red when using their Blood Veils. A few Revenants have red eyes normally, such as the Protagonist and Rui.
* ResurrectiveImmortality: The Revenants to an extent. The Lost and Q.U.E.E.N, however exemplify this trope the most, as they cannot be killed for good. The latter had to be [[SealedEvilInACan split apart into]] [[SoulJar different pieces and entities]] called Successors in order to be defeated. Even then, she is somehow still alive.
* WasOnceAMan: Every Revenant and Lost you encounter was originally a human who had to abandon their humanity following the emergence of the Thorns of Judgement. The Lost are Revenants that have fallen prey to their bloodlust, developing an insatiable thirst.

[[caption-width-right:350:Default look for female Protagonist]]

One of the remaining Revenants in the closed society of "Vein," AKA [[PlayerCharacter you.]] While wandering around Vein in order to survive and fighting against the bloodlust of becoming a Lost, you will encounter and work together with comrades in similar circumstances.
----
* AmnesiacHero: Not only do they start amnesiac due to being revived as a Revenant, they lose more of their memories after Jack has to MercyKill them. Their memories are also uncovered during the story, [[DarkAndTroubledPast with a lot of suffering to come from it]].
* BackFromTheDead: Somehow manages to survive Jack's MercyKill even after getting shot through the heart, the one weakness of Revenants.
* BadassLongcoat: Should you choose to wear either a Type Stinger or Type Ogre Blood Veil, the protagonist will wear one.
* CharacterCustomization: Plenty of choices ranging from your look, your weapons of choice, Gifts and your preferred playstyle with the different Blood Veils available.
* CoatCape: Courtesy of the Type Hound Blood Veil.
* FirstEpisodeResurrection: Twice over. While dying and resurrecting is another day at the office for a Revenant, narratively the protagonist was killed two days prior to the start of the game and wakes up as Operation Queenslayer is about to begin. They are then at the end of it seemingly killed off permanently by Jack after he shot them in the heart, only to resurrect an unspecified time later as usual.
* TheGift: They have the inexplicable and sought-after ability to revive Blood Springs, the source of Blood Beads.
* NewMeat: S/he joins Operation Queenslayer as a fresh soldier and is dubbed "Kid" by Jack.
* ResistTheBeast: After they get exposed to the miasma in the battle against Cruz, they manage to stay in control long enough to sucker-punch her in the belly, finishing her off. Unfortunately, Jack has to MercyKill them right afterwards.
* SoulJar: The protagonist is a Successor candidate, one capable of drinking Q.U.E.E.N's blood without turning into a Lost. Mido even goes on to refer to them as a "seed." And as being a Successor means you have a piece of Q.U.E.E.N infused into your body, the protagonist more than qualifies as this.
* WeaponOfChoice: Promotional screenshots shows the male Protagonist wielding a One-Handed Sword and equipped with the Type Ogre Blood Veil while the female Protagonist wields a Polearm and the Type Stinger Blood Veil.

* AttackAttackAttack: Uses Gifts that increase attack power and decrease stamina consumption, which allows the player to attack much more often.

A former soldier and Revenant. After the Great Collapse, the birth of the Revenants, and the Q.U.E.E.N. Project, he took command in order to save mankind.

* BadassLongCoat: He wears a long trench coat with an enormous fur lined collar.
* BigDamnHeroes: Shows up to even the odds during the Protagonist and Jack's fight with Cruz.

* OffingTheOffspring: It's unknown if Gregorio is aware of it or not, but Q.U.E.E.N. is his daughter. As she is a threat to not only humanity but to Revenants in general, he has no choice but to eliminate his own child.
* RousingSpeech: Delivers one during the start of Operation Queenslayer.
* ShadowDictator: Subverted in the fact that he isn't controlling things from behind the scenes. Following Q.U.E.E.N's defeat, Gregorio had more or less imposed a dictatorship, forcing humans to become livestock under the guise of "protection" while imposing taxes in the form of Blood Beads.

* BareHandedBladeBlock: Performs one against Jack when they fight during Operation Q.U.E.E.N. Slayer.
* BattleAura: She is constantly surrounded by a blue glow. This is because her body emits miasma; the concentrations around her are so high that it becomes visible to the naked eye.

* CompleteImmortality: Like the Lost, she can't be killed permanently due to being the ultimate revenant. The only way around this was to fuse her bodyparts with various individuals with high affinity for it called successors.
* InstitutionalApparel: Even long after her escape, Cruz still wears the hospital gown she wore when she was still being used as a test subject.
* MySiblingWillLiveThroughMe: More like my ''kind will live through me.'' Cruz is immortal like the rest of the Lost, but she was defeated by being split apart into pieces called God Arcs. As the cast soon learns, however, Q.U.E.E.N is ''very'' much still alive, due to her pieces being infused with the Successors.
* NiceJobFixingItVillain: What Rui believes after he discovers that [[spoiler:Karen had become a Successor]]. Q.U.E.E.N, despite being sealed into God Arcs, is the reason why Blood Tears are being produced in the first place. He even goes so far as to consider them to be Q.U.E.E.N's tears. The irony is not lost to him.
* PoisonousPerson: Not only does she emit miasma, her blood is toxic. Causing Revenants who drinks it to become lost. The rare few capable of drinking her blood and surviving are sought after for their potential to become successors.
* SealedEvilInACan: Even though the Protagonist managed to injure her, she wasn't killed. Instead, the Revenants had to split her body into pieces. Some of those pieces have been infused into Revenants called Successors. Among them is [[spoiler:Rui's sister, Karen]].

----
* EvilSoundsDeep: He has a deep and foreboding voice with a slight metallic echo.
* MadScientist: He is notorious for conducting inhumane experiments on test subjects. He is not even above using himself as a test subject.

While dying and resurrecting is another day at the office for a Revenant, narratively the protagonist was killed two days prior to the start of the game and wakes up as operation Queen-slayer is about to begin. They are then at the end of it seemingly killed off permanently by Jack after he shot them in the heart, only to resurrect an unspecified time later as usual.

* SupernaturalGoldEyes: The only character so fair in the game with gold colored eyes.
