* DarkAndTroubledPast: Born as the result of Commodus having a short-lived affair with a farm girl before dumping her upon being bored with her. Sola was raised alone by her mother who would watch her waste away waiting for a man who didn't love her to come back for her. She learned to fend for herself living a quiet existence surviving off of what she grew in the garden and what she hunted. But it lasted until her father had need of her to use as a SacrificialPawn, being forced to do so and kept in chains until she realized the danger the people of the Empire faced before accepting the task.

* HiveMind: They are all linked together through the mind stream created by the [[HiveQueen Alpha Prototype]] with the original Prototype able of commanding other prototypes or taking direct control.
* MeaningfulName: They are called Prototypes because they were all prototypes to create the Alpha, who was to be apex of creating a superior hyper intelligent human to help them discover the secrets of [[TimeMachine Time Travel and Manipulation]] . The cloned Prototypes were based off of the original Prototype while all of them lead to the creation of the Alpha Prototype.

!Chigara Lynn Ashada

A genius inventor despite her young age and a survivor of the Diode disaster that destroyed her home. Her escape pod would end up arriving on Ryuvian Prime where she would encounter and befriend Asaga despite her status as royalty. A shy and modest inventor who has surprisingly modest life goals given her considerable intellect and capabilities as an inventor and engineer.

----

* AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: Appears in the same chapter as Asaga, long before events of the original game showing their days living on Ryuvia before the PACT invasion.
* GadgeteerGenius: Chigara is smart enough to create things like a [[MythologyGag Pasty Replicator]] and likely much more as long as she has the right tools and the parts.
* IWantToBeNormal: Despite her immense intellect and skills, Chigara could easily make a fortune with her inventions, but inspires to open a bakery and raise a family.

* SoleSurvivor: As far as Chigara knows, she believes she is the only survivor of Diode Catastrophe, in which her home along with much of the planet was consumed by artificial black hole in ExperimentGoneWrong. [[spoiler: Or so she believes]] .
* ThirdPersonPerson: Something Chigara does once in awhile especially if she is nervous, being emotions or drunk.

!!Diode

A research colony on the edge of the galaxy and far away from civilized space. To the galaxy at large it was home of the collection of the galaxy's most brilliant minds accomplishing such feats such as reviving a brain-dead patient and more creating astonishing new innovations, but that all came to an end when an experiment went horrible wrong as an artificial black hole consumed the research station and most of the plant leaving the planet ruined. Chigara was originally from Diode and assumed to be the SoleSurvivor, but the truth behind that tragedy is unknown to most of the galaxy.

----

[[folder: General]]

* MadScientist: All of Diode's inhabitants were this, but they had no sense of morality and restraint when it came to research. So much so that not even the New Empire or the most corrupt elements of any planetary government wanted nothing to do with them, and were content to leave them far away from everyone.

The Princess and next in line to the throne of Ryuvia being the descendant of the Holy Ryuvian Empire's rulers during its glory days. However, Asaga has no real interest in succeeding her father and becomes more interested in the exploits of the Black Knights and Zero. She is joined by her best friend Chigara, a genius inventor and sometimes the voice of reason.

* FieryRedhead: Emotional, tomboyish, outspoken and energetic, fits this to a T.
* GenkiGirl: The most emotional and energetic among the cast so far introduced.
* HeroWorshipper: Asaga is a big fan of the Black Knights and Zero, further inspriing her desire to be a Hero of Justice herself.

Except that is not [[HistoryWrittenByWinners what really happened]], the truth was, or at least assumed by both Lelouch and Sola herself, is that Sola's father the Second Prince, Commodus vi Ryuvia, murdered his father and older half-brother, the First Prince Hadrian, to seize the throne intending to blame it all on his other half-brother Crow Harbor. Unfortunately things didn't go as planned and Crow declared war beginning one of the bloodiest civil wars in Ancient Ryuvia's history with no clear winner in sight. Forced to use their deadliest weapon to end the conflict, but it required the sacrifice of a Royal Princess to activate. The true Princess of Ryuvia was unwilling to sacrifice herself, being too greedy and self-important to do so, managed to track down Sola who was used as a Scapegoat to active it in her place.

!!Ryuvia

A long time ago, Ryuvia was a GalacticSuperpower called the [[TheEmpire Holy Ryuvian Empire]] that once dominated the Galaxy at the height of its power. Possessing technology that was almost magical in nature that made their subjects view their Emperors as [[GodEmperor Gods]].

BUT, today Ryuvia is a shadow of its former self after their galaxy-wide Emperor collapsed following a series of violent civil wars caused by battles for successions, which nearly wiped-out humanity and sent the whole galaxy into a dark age. It did experience a resurgence during the Alliance-Imperial War, but the Solar Alliance backstabbed them after allying against the New Empire ensuring Ryuvia's continued decline losing their chance to return to the glory days they once had. All Ryuvia has is their capital called Ryuvia Prime ruled by the survivors of the Royal Family of the former galactic superpower.

* AbusivePrecursors: The Ancient Ryuvians and their Empire were this, not only did they enforce their rule upon the galaxy using their highly advance technology, but its implied that they wiped out all other alien races that could've competed against them or been a threat in the early founding of their Empire.
* TheEmpire: It was this during its golden years as the Holy Ryuvian Empire which ruled over the galaxy and its royal family was worshiped as gods. This all ended when a series of civil wars over the throne resulted in the Empire's collapse nearly destroying humanity in the process and sending the galaxy into a [[DarkAges Dark Age]].
* ResurgentEmpire: Ryuvia tries to be this during the Alliance-Imperial War, but the Alliance fearing a resurgent Ryuvia will become no better than the New Empire betrays their word to return their former territories becoming the Neutral Rim, reducing Ryuvia to a [[VestigialEmpire single backwater planet]] .
* VestigialEmpire: What modern Ryuvia has been reduced to with only its original capital of Ryuvia Prime as its only holding.

[[folder: Icari Isidolde]]

!Icari Isidolde

A tough no-nonsense mercenary and assassin occasionally employed by Admrial Grey and recommended to the Black Knights to aid them in defeating Captain Kidd and his pirate fleet, before aiming to obtain and clean out his bank accounts of the funds PACT provided him with to weaken the Neutral Rim and remove the Black Knights as a threat. Noted to have a [[ItsPersonal grudge]] against PACT, which makes her more than willing to ally with the Black Knights to inflict as much damage upon PACT as she can for a tragedy she suffered as a child.

She doesn't join the Black Knights, but she does become an ally of the group and is more than happy to accept any jobs for them as along as she can hurt PACT.

----

* AcePilot: Despite using a Ryder with [[FragileSpeedster little armor]] , Icari is a skilled pilot wielding only machine guns as her only ranged weapons to deal with missiles and lightly armored enemies, Icari's anti-Ryder swords and speed allow her to come in close and decapitate enemy Ryders before they know what hit them rarely taking any damage despite her Ryder being lightly armed and armored.
* AmbiguouslyBi: Just as in her home game, Icari is still this according to WordOfGod.
* CloseRangeCombatant: Icari specializes in this, both as a Ryder pilot and outside of it. During the raid on Captain Kidd's complex she uses a katana against his men, which works well on enemies with personal forcefields justifying its use.
* CripplingOverspecialization: Both in gameplay and in story as Icari is a melee-focused Ryder combatant meant to get up close and personal to cut down enemy Ryders, while she lacks anything to destroy bigger than a Ryder since her swords cannot be used on ships in game.

[[folder: Admrial Harold Grey]]

!Admrial Harold Grey

One of the highest ranking military leaders of the Solar Alliance and Admiral of the Emerald Fleet, and also related to legendary Admrial Madeline Grey. He was among those to recognize the danger the newly formed PACT would become after it overthrew the New Empire, focusing on expanding its new military and arming themselves with the goal of [[GalacticConquest conquering]] the Neutral Rim before moving onto the Solar Alliance.


Knowing that Solar Congress and its president wouldn't act until its too late, he supported C.C.'s plan using his connections to get the personnel and equipment together to [[CrazyEnoughToWork bring back]] [[GodzillaThreshold Lelouch]] . Since then he has proven to be an ally to the Black Knights behind the scenes supplying them with intel, resources and the use of a certain mercenary. However, despite their good relations and alliance, Lelouch has remained understandably cautious knowing [[MeaningfulName Grey]] acts with the [[WellIntentionedExtremist best interests]] of the Alliance in mind.

* ChestOfMedals: Admrial Grey has his uniform covered in a number of medals, all likely well [[AuthorityEqualsAsskicking earned]] .
* FamousAncestor: Is descended from Madeline Grey, a legendary admiral and a key founder of the Solar Alliance making Grey and his family well-known and respected within the Alliance, especially just about every member of the family has served in the military.
* GenerationXerox: Grey and his family have all served in the Alliance military in one way or another since the founding of the Solar Alliance.
* MeaningfulName: Grey has his own shares of grey to his character, which some characters note is fitting.
* SouthernGentleman: His character design invokes this.
* WellIntentionedExtremist / UnscrupulousHero: Fitting with his name. Grey is [[PragmaticHero pragmatic]] and he is willing to do whatever it takes to win and secure the safety and future of the Solar Alliance. Lelouch is aware of this and is careful in his dealings with Grey while trying to be less dependent on the Alliance's support. Furthermore, Grey was the one who arranged the pirate attack on the space station that brought Lelouch back to eliminate witnesses and cover up his involvement knowing it would be a huge scandal. Then there is Icari who he makes use of to eliminate those beyond the Alliance's reach which raises some other questions about how far he'll go.

* DemocracyIsFlawed: At the time of its founding, the Solar Congress was very effective in working towards the best interest of their people and managing the resources from a hundred planets of class ten or more, rich with resources helping the Alliance enjoy enormous economic, military and technologic capabilities from these joint developments. BUT, this requires a staggering amount bureaucracy giving individual planets like Cera better infrastructure over the Alliance as a whole. Even worse, a string of weak presidents unable to unify the Alliance and Solar Congress has led to it being dominated more by public interest groups leaving people and worlds not part of the Core Worlds of the Alliance misrepresented.
* GalacticSuperpower: The Solar Alliance becomes this after winning the Alliance-Imperial War, where the New Empire would fall into decline over the next century, the Alliance would prosper. Currently its one of two superpowers in the Galaxy, with the other being PACT after Compact overthrew the New Empire.

!!Solar Alliance

An alliance of worlds centered around their capital called Solaris, which since defeating the New Empire during the Alliance-Imperial War. Despite being outnumbered, and rallied under the banner of the legendary Admiral Madeline Grey the remaining free worlds joined to fight back against the New Empire. Discovering an ancient Ryder, also gave the Alliance an advantage against the New Empire to capitalize on allowing for the return of Ryders to military use.

Following the New Empire's defeat at the Battle of Solaris, which stunned the New Empire. Taking advantage of uprisings and the rise of the newly formed Compact resistance movement, while the New Empire was faced with internal power struggles combined the Ryuvian Empire attempting a resurgence lead to the Empire's defeat and forced to sign the Treaty of Vespa to end the conflict so the New Empire could try and fail to address its internal problems until it was overthrown nearly a century later. Opposite of the New Empire, the Solar Alliance grew becoming a galactic superpower as a economic and military powerhouse. They are led by an elected President with most of its power and decision making handled by Solar Congress on their capital.
