Neu Family

     In General 
  • Happily Adopted: None of the Neu sisters (aside from Sophia and Olivia) are biologically related, but that doesn't make them any less tight as a family.
  • Quirky Household: In a home full of trained killers, mythical creatures, child prodigies, they definitely qualify.
     Merida 
Adopted at age seven, Merida is the oldest child of the Neu family.

Originally born to the wealthy Lauren family, Merida lived a pampered, sheltered life. That is until a horrific discovery about her family's legacy forced her to flee from home. Hounded by those loyal to her father, she would be rescued by Franklin Neu and become the first of many daughters he and his wife Allison would adopt. With nowhere left to go, Merida would dedicate her time and become a master of the sword. All for the sake of one day, bringing justice to her corrupt birth family.


     Taylor 
Adopted at six years old, Taylor is the second child of the Neu family.

After a massive fire burned down her home and claimed the lives of her parents, Taylor was rescued by a young woman who brought her to Franklin and Allison. With nothing but her father's notebook on biochemistry, she would forge a new life with her adoptive family. While running her own clothing store by day, she dabbles in her late father's work at night to find out what caused their deaths.


     Arie 
Adopted at six years old, Arie is the third child of the Neu family.

While growing up in an orphanage, Arie knew she was different from other children. She would often build gadgets and gizmos from stuff lying around and use them to gleefully torment the other children living there. Eventually, she built an exo-suit out of scrap and escaped the orphanage, but was later defeated by Franklin Neu.

Although he beat her easily, Franklin was impressed by her talents and decided to adopt her. It wasn't easy, but after some time, this problematic girl turned into a talented inventor who is not afraid to get down and dirty.


  • Awesome Aussie: One of her extras sets even lists some of the Aussie slang she'd use.
  • Gadgeteer Genius: She's been one for a long time. She even encountered her adoptive father after using an exosuit to escape her orphanage.
     Magilily 
Adopted at six years old, Magilily, also called "Magi," is the fourth child of the Neu family.

One evening, when Franking Neu decided to visit his favorite spot to view the sunset, he discovered a young girl unconscious at the base of a Yew Tree. She was wearing nothing more than old rags for clothes, and she had a strange pendant around her neck.

By the time she came around, Franklin asked her name, but she could only sputter the word "Magi." She had lost her memory and had no idea who she was, or how she wound up at the tree in the first place. Believing it to be fate, Franklin asked the girl if she would like to join his family. The girl gleefully accepted the offer, and she was introduced to the family as "Magi." She would later remember her full name, "Magilily," as her full one. Since then, she has grown into a lovable trickster with a penchant for spells!

Her bio can be viewed here.


  • Breaking the Fourth Wall: Being the fun-loving Magical Girl of the family, she's capable of this.
  • Childish Tooth Gap: While it may seem that way at first, that missing tooth is actually invisible, not gone entirely. This was the result of a spell gone wrong.
  • Magical Barefooter: She loses proper footwear in her prime form, though this differs Depending on the Artist. JStar draws her wearing mummy-like footwraps, while Raisha draws her totally barefoot.
  • The Nicknamer: She's terrible at remembering the UNITE agents' names. To her, Nicolia is "Angry Gurl," Joshua is "Agent Man," and Molly is "Crazy Chainsaw Lady."
  • Reality Warper: She can rely on cartoon physics as a defensive form of magic. However, this uses a sufficient amount of Mana.
  • Series Mascot: Jstar uses her as her official art persona and treats her as such.
     K'lynn 
Adopted when she was six years old, K'lynn, also referred to as "Kin," is the fifth child of the Neu family.

Originally a normal little girl, she was kidnapped by an organization known as Prospect Nomad. During her year of captivity, she was turned into a powerful and deadly killing machine. She would later break out and kill everyone who got in her way.

Now free, she was adopted by Frankin Neu and became part of his family. Her bio can be viewed here.


  • Big Eater: As a result of the enhancements on her body, she requires twice as much food as a girl her age. Her sisters sometimes use this to bribe her.
  • Gamer Chick: As the family's resident nerd, she consumes all sorts of media, video games included. Her profile describes her as mostly a Nintendo lover.
  • Soul Jar: The spirits of four children are trapped inside her Phase Energy Core. They serve as her Soul Arms and help out whenever they can. Or they'll push her out of bed when she sleeps in.
     Kai 
Adopted when she was six years old, Kai is the sixth child of the Neu family.

Born to the Malie family as the Kraekkaria's newest princess, she would inherit the power of the Heart Gem, a biological treasure capable of amplifying a Kraekkarian's power. As the elders of the Pacific Kingdom gathered one night, they received a prophecy of a snake-like being in possession of the gem, who would later destroy the planet. Because of this, Kai's parents hid her away from the kingdom, in case this creature decided to take the gem by force.

The King contacted his most trusted ally from the surface, Franklin Neu, and entrusted the custody of his daughter to him. But one day, the young princess will return home to protect it from the impending threat.

Her bio can be viewed here.


  • Clueless Dude Magnet: She is very oblivious to the attention she gets at her school. Even when guys are flirting or leaving "random" gifts for her, she brushes these off as friendly gestures.
  • Mind-Control Music: She's capable of this, often hypnotizing passersby by accident.
  • Our Mermaids Are Different: Unlike mermaids in most media, Kai can slither around like a snake on land.
  • Ship Tease: There's been some of this between her and Lucas.
  • Sirens Are Mermaids: Complete with the hypnotic voice.
  • Water Is Womanly: Fitting for a mermaid princess. She's even part of her school's swim team and uses hydrokinesis.
     Sony 
Adopted at age six, Sony is the seventh child of the Neu family.

Born in the mythical realm of Elysium, Sony is a creature known as a Shadow Beast. But unlike others of her species, who only seek death and destruction, Sony was raised as a slayer of her kind. After a battle with the king of the Shadow Beasts, Shazquar, Sony was brought to Earth and was adopted into the Neu family. Unfortunately, the Shazquar has returned and aims to destroy the human world with his legion of reborn Shadow Beasts.


  • Little Miss Badass: She's only twelve years old, but most of her time is spent slaying vicious Shadow Beasts.
     Sophia 
Adopted along with her twin sister Olivia at four years old, Sophia is the eighth child of the Neu family (older than Olivia by 2-3 minutes).

She and her sister hail from Yorivir, a world consumed by war between the technologically advanced Kardroveans, and the elemental-wielding Ussureans. The war forced them to flee to Earth, where Sophia would discover a love of cooking, conjuring all sorts of mouthwatering food and cuisine using her fire abilities.


  • Playing with Fire: Although she has yet to be seen using this in a combative scenario, she possesses powerful fire-wilding abilities.
     Olivia 
Adopted along with her twin sister Sophia at four years old, Olivia is the eighth child of the Neu family (younger than Sophia by 2-3 minutes).

She and her sister hail from Yorivir, a world consumed by war between the technologically advanced Kardroveans, and the elemental-wielding Ussureans. The war forced them to flee to Earth, where she would discover an affinity for animals and wildlife. She possesses the ability to manipulate wind, which she uses in tandem with her martial arts.


     Franklin 
The patriarch of the Neu family.
     Allison 
The matriarch of the Neu family.

UNITE

     In General 
     Nicolia Kansa 
Born with a silver spoon in her mouth, Nicolia's parents arranged her to be married to the son of another wealthy family. The two were happily engaged, but during a trip to Eastpoint, Maine, thousands would be killed in a clash with two shadow beasts, including Nicolia's fiancé. His death resulted in the two families falling out, and Nicolia's father disowning her. With nowhere left to go, she would enroll as a UNITE agent and become a hardened, well-respected warrior to avenge her fiancé. Her talent and reputation earned her the nickname "The Knightess of Chicago."

Her profile can be read here.


  • Closet Geek: Despite her no-nonsense attitude, she loves anime and dramas.
  • Elemental Powers: Nicolia wields a jewel on her left hand known as the "Quantum," which allows her to channel the power of the elements into many forms. When drawn from a source, the element is stored in the gem, which can be unleased at any time. The only downside is that it has to be charged periodically.
     Joshua Faithlight 
Joshua Faithlight was born in Eastpoint, Maine with a strong interest in mythology and legends. When he was seventeen, his home fell during a Shadow Beast's attack, and his parents were among the many casualties. The event inspired Josh to join UNITE's Enforcer program, where he would befriend Nicolia. Unfortunately, while receiving spinal augmentations to become a full-fledged warrior, complications arose that demoted him to the Agency Corps. However, his knowledge on mythical beasts would see him rise the ranks and reunite with Nicolia, which would bring him into conflict with the Neus.

His profile can be read here.


     Molly Lancaster 
Molly is the head of UNITE's xenobiology branch, Lab 3. As a graduate from a renowned medical school, and a prodigy in medical science, Molly was seen as the perfect candidate. After Joshua asked for her help to investigate Project Kin-Lynndis, she's taken an interest in the project's history.

Her profile can be read here.


  • Ax-Crazy: Molly is sadistic and enjoys the misfortune of others. She also loves the sight of gore anything visceral. Even in her job, examining bizarre lifeforms UNITE agents come across, she doesn't even give them proper anesthesia before working on them.

     Allana Ares 
The director of UNITE. So far, no artwork or profiles of her have been created yet.
