4->"I promised that I would protect her, and I fully intend to do so."
5
6A kind young man who willingly protects the girl who tries to get everyone killed, at the risk of losing the trust of everyone else. He has a good head on his shoulders, but being in such a situation makes things... more than a little difficult to say the least.

13[[folder:Izumi Yume, Bookkeeper]]
14The SHSL Bookkeeper, notable for two things: Having first woken up in the garden in the branches of a 40 foot tall tree, and subsequently spending the rest of her time in her hut. This has so far done her good, as she hasn't yet come into any subsequent danger.
15* TheGhost: Hasn't been seen since the first chapter, having sealed herself up in her room, Kaori has mentioned her several times, however.

26[[quoteright:250:]]
27->''"Eh, um, I wouldn’t say that being a Concept Artist is any better than being a Programmer! Or- wait, that came out wrong, I mean, I think being a programmer is really impressive and I could probably never do it without screwing things up really badly!" ''
28
29A friendly and caring girl with a tendency to mother those around her (whether they want it or not). She tries her hardest to keep everyone happy, but frequently stresses herself out too far, and triggers a migraine headache.
30
31* AlmightyMom: By her second conversation with people, she's checking if they're eating right and sleeping okay.
32* BewareTheNiceOnes: Kaori's temper has yet to fully riled up - often impeded by her headaches - but sooner or later...
33* BigScrewedUpFamily: Though [[MassiveNumberedSiblings entirely comprised of siblings]], Kaori's family is pretty big (numbering 7 people), and although they somehow get along, it's still kinda screwed up.
34* DontSplitUsUp: [[spoiler: after her mother's death, it was Kaori's older sister Rukia who kept the family together by effectively adopting them all, as she was 18 and legal to do so.]]
35* TeamMom: One of two, the other being Ringo. Even gets referred to as such by Yuurei, who calls her "Kaori-okā".
36* MamaBear: You are all now adopted, and any injury against you will only make Kaori more protective and angry at those at fault (IE, Monopython.)
37* PromotionToParent: Kaori took on a part of this role to her younger siblings, and easily slips into it when encountering anyone who could be sufficiently younger than her.

50->''"Despair is all reality is. And so… it's the exact opposite of this punishment game… 'cause it's just wonderful here."''
51
52A tiny, childish albino girl who fancies herself the queen of a kingdom she built out of snow and calls Saintuaire. She's almost always smiling and trying to be friendly-- which is rather much spoiled by the way she's repeatedly tried to get everyone killed. [[spoiler: Victim of the Fourth case, found buried under snow within her castle, poisoned to death. Notably the only death that didn't require a motive.]]
53
54* BecomingTheMask: She's lied for so long she has no idea who she is anymore. Or maybe she never did.
55* BefriendingTheEnemy: She tried. Now she's doing her best to work for Monopython instead.
56* BelievingTheirOwnLies: She's been able to convince herself she's telling the truth on a number of occasions.
57* CheerfulChild
58* ConsummateLiar: Literally [[spoiler: a professional liar;]] she's beaten lie detectors before, including a human one-- at least in Shizune's Bad End.
59* CorruptTheCutie: What Monopython has done to her.
60* CreepyChild: Practically her talent.
61* CuteAndPsycho: As evidenced in the [[DownerEnding Bad End]] of Shizune's case. And the (very near) one of Shinta's.
62* CuteGhostGirl: More literally her talent.
63* DenyingTheDeadParentsSins: It's pretty clear her mother was abusive from how she talks about her, but she doesn't seem to hold any malice towards her at all, and will in fact defend her.
64* EvilLaugh: She keeps copying Monopython's hissing giggle. It's creepy.
65* EvilMatriarch: Although she's in denial about it.
66* GoMadFromTheIsolation: As a result, she latched onto the [[SmugSnake first being who knew her secret and didn't hate her.]]
67* HatesBeingAlone: Sleeps with Yuuki most nights to avoid this and tries to have someone with her at all times. Had a breakdown when Rei said she'd be alone on the event of Yuuki's death. Very happy to know that Monopython will always be there.
68* IcePalace: She (and several other students she's coerced into helping her) built one of these in the tundra biome.
69* ILoveTheDead: Platonically-- she has an affinity for corpses and often plays with them.
70* IMissMom
71* ISeeDeadPeople: As part of her talent. She talks about "the spirits" a lot. [[spoiler: It's actually all an act she's been putting on for eleven years.]]
72* IWantMyMommy: Sobbed into Kaori's chest during the second motive.
73* LadyAndKnight: Yuurei and Shouji.
74* LetsDuet: Has sung one of these (Hold, Release, Rakshasa and Carcasses) with Monopython before.
75* LiarRevealed: Her secret has been slowly coming out. She's surprised more people don't hate her for it.
76* LittleMissConArtist
77* LoveMakesYouEvil: Mostly because of the [[SmugSnake target of her affections]], which lead her to pull a FaceHeelTurn not long into the story.
78* MadLove: Obsessively devoted to Monopython, calling him Python-kami.
79* MeaningfulName: The way her name is actually spelled means "roaring radiance, distant jewels of heaven", but people keep spelling it so that it means "timid liar ghost". Otherwise known as her character in a nutshell.
80* MoralEventHorizon: With nearly succeeding at getting everyone exploded twice, openly siding with Monopython and saying she wants everyone to die, and convincing Shichiro to try to murder Rei, she's playing jumprope with this.
81* PleaseDontLeaveMe: Said to both Yuuki and Shouji.
82* PutThemAllOutOfMyMisery: Part of her rationale for trying to get everyone killed.
83* RedEyesTakeWarning: While her eyes are normally pale blue, she angles her head to turn them red when she's angry or going for dramatic effect.
84* StepfordSmiler: Smiles a lot more often than she should.
85* TakingTheHeat: Framed herself successfully for Shizune's murder in the [[DownerEnding Bad End]]. Tried very hard to do the same for Shinta's.
86* WhiteHairBlackHeart
87* WhyCantIHateYou: Yuurei to [[spoiler:Shouji]].
88* WhyDidYouMakeMeHitYou: Said often by her mother.
89* WinterRoyalLady: After the tundra biome was unlocked, she declared herself the queen of it. No one has contested her claim, though several students don't recognise it.

93[[folder:Kitasato Masaru, Go Player]]

96
97[[folder:Kitano Katsu, Hacker]]
98Katsu Kitano is an infamous hacker (or cracker as some would call him), better known in certain circles on the Internet by his handle "πth0n". The first person to die in the garden, being crushed to death by Monopython after breaking the rules while trying to escape.
99* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Revealed by the mods to have been the original Mastermind for the game, before having to drop out. Their user handle, πthon (Pronounced [[MeaningfulName Py-thon]]) was going to be a hint to this.

102[[folder:Kido Kichirou, Keitai Novelist]]
103The author of the popular cell phone novels Sutaa Kissu Ans Spirit Kissu, who came under fire when it was discovered the writer of a of the two girls romance was a boy in a typically female dominated medium.

113[[quoteright:250:]]
114->''" EGGS AND BACON YER FUCKIN MISTAKEN"''
115
116A small, hot blooded boy with only one eye, Shichiro is a force to be reckoned with, his temper making up for his lack of height. He's often over emotional, going from anger to embarrassment and back again in the blink of an eye. He's also easily flustered and says a lot of stupid things, see quote for an example.. He didn't seem to care much for the killing game, only helping out trials and shouting at everyone, but chapter three has made this personal. [[spoiler: Revealed to be the mastermind for the game, given admin powers by Tetsuo and slowly being corrupted by Monopython's code. He gets better.]]
117* [[spoiler: AnArmAndALeg: Lost one of his arms while going on a hard mode run in the temple. Fortunately, Monopython is "generous" enough to supply him with an [[ArtificialLimbs artificial one]]...that it can take control of.]]
118* BerserkButton: Harming his [[spoiler:now Deceased]] boyfriend Shinta, or threatening him in anyway was enough to set him off to the point of trying to kill Yuuki, who had attacked Shinta while he was still alive. He also attempt to kill Yuurei when she was messing with Shinta's corpse. Less violent example is anyone referring to him with "-chan" Don't do it. Also. Do not call him short.
119* BreakTheBadass: [[spoiler: When Shinta died,]] Shichiro spent a good chunk of the investigation period moping around and/or attacking people.
120* ChaoticStupid: AND HOW. Currently, he's fallen into the Oasis, fallen twice into the Frozen Lake, he's eaten poisonous berries, and he's continuously throwing himself into the jungle temple amongst other things. How he hasn't died from sheer stupidity is a mystery.
121* EasilyForgiven: Rei has somehow found it in her to forgive Shichiro for the gardening shears attack. They seem to be friends of sorts now.
122* HotBlooded: He's almost always shouting at things, raring to go at anyone. His enthusiasm for the dangers of the jungle temple is also unmatched.
123* LeeroyJenkins: Threw off Yuurei's entire plan to attack Rei when he rushed at her with a pair of gardening shears instead of waiting for the signal. Also see Chaotic Stupid.
124* SirSwearsALot: Especially when angry. Often there's a curse every few words.
125* [[spoiler: SweetPollyOliver: Is actually not Nakamura Shichi, but his sister Saichiko, who took his identity following a shoot out that resulted in his death, caused by Saichiko being kidnapped.]]
126* TheNicknamer: Never addresses Monopython with it's actual name, preferring to use ridiculous phrases such as: Overgrown Shoelace, Buffed up Twist Tie, Black and White Used Bandaid, Monochrome Poolnoodle (Or just Poolnoodle), Scaly Pipecleaner, Peppery Noodle, String Cheese, Bendy Pencil, and Spaghetti Squiggle.

136
137A helpful young lady with the knowledge of over 50 languages under her belt. Despite the horrifying circumstances she has found herself in, she fully believes that she and her classmates will find a way to escape (After they figure out that trying to murder each other is stupid, that is). Though usually empathetic to other's suffering, and attempts to solve all potential conflicts civilly, the above quote shows that if your push her to the limit, prepare for a tongue lashing.
138
139* GoodIsNotSoft
140* FieryRedhead: A minor example, but she can get very fierce when it comes to trying to stop fights.
141* HardWorkHardlyWorks [[spoiler: In regards to her backstory, where even her greatest efforts resulted in sub-par grades academically, much to the disappointment of her parents.]]
142* LadySwearsalot: Becomes this gradually through the game, culminating with a loud multilingual stream of sailor words when [[spoiler: Shichi is revealed as mastermind.]]
143* MikeNelsonDestroyerOfWorlds: When she accidentally performed the command to drain the Ocean Biome.... while three of her classmates and ''Monopython'' were in an untethered sphere floating in the middle of it. [[spoiler: ...Thankfully said sphere was just large enough to plug the drain.]]
144* NiceGirl
145* PluckyGirl : Not even [[spoiler: The revelation that the boy she just confessed her feelings to was the culprit of the case]] can keep her depressed for long.
146* PunnyName: Her full name is a pun on the Japanese word for "stop" (Tomare = Toma Rei)
147* TheWatson: In regards to Shinta, often explaining clues and testimonies in trials while Shinta is attempting to find the culprit. [[spoiler: That is, until Shinta is found dead, and Rei becomes one of the primary investigators of the remaining students.]]

164
165* MagicalGirl: Kikyo really and truly believes that she's the incarnation of the magical girl Super Kitty☆Mew Mew, of whom she voice acts for... as such, Kikyo acts like a magical girl who's trying to protect everyone from danger!
166* [[spoiler:StuffBlowingUp: Her execution, where she was strapped to a firework which was then lit by Super Kitty Mew Mew's arch-Nemesis, Queen Woof]]
