* DependingOnTheArtist: Out of all the characters in the game, Minogame was perhaps hit by this trope the most with depictions of their physical traits varying wildly as to just how masculine or feminine they look. As a simple example, the initial art for the game portrayed them as having small breasts while art for the much later Steam release showcased them with a clearly masculine torso.

Added DiffLines:

* MechanicallyUnusualFighter: She's the only character to have multiple loadout options that are all different from one another (the closest would be Deadliar whose Mistletoe can be set to either lock position relative to himself or to the whole screen, but it changes nothing else about his loadout). If each of those loadouts were separate characters then they would take up more than half of the player character roster!


Added DiffLines:

* UnlockableContent: She is not available until the player completes Segments 1 through 4.

The official Steam page refers to Minogame as "they": https://store.steampowered.com/app/1067720/Hellsinker/


An artificial, immortal god-like being created by an unnamed organization and worshiped as an actual god by said organization. He was confiscated by the Graveyard after a group led by Deadliar raided their headquarters. To him, manipulation of Sol and Luna is as natural as breathing. While capable of being mounted with a Misteltoe, it will generally exert extreme stress on them. The most notable case is when he tried to mount with Kagura, where the resulting backlash caused such severe damage to her that she was forced to be put in the armor of an Elder Misteltoe. He has refused any Misteltoe since then.

Minogame is a wide area nuker, specialising at dealing heavy damage to multiple targets. He also focuses on comboing his attacks with each other to generate even more damage. His discharge is Azure Lotus.

* TrappedBehindEnemyLines: Was part of the first mission to the Cardinal Shaft and almost reached the core but the mission failed and he was trapped.

One of the earlier Misteltoe models. Despite that she has been constantly upgraded in order to keep her on par with newer versions. Having clocked over 50000 workhours with Deadliar, she is unlikely to accept a new master. At times it seems as she is the one commanding Deadliar instead of the intended command setup. Has gained a somewhat sharp tounge over the years thanks to Deadliar's influence.

Her playstyle focuses on high damage to single targets at close range as well as area denial using Saraga-maru.
