The Legion
Tim Finch
Tim Finch
"I’ve already learned from loss enough to know... that’s not a sacrifice worth making.''
The Legion’s newest recruit. Prior to joining, he had been living out of a duffel bag for a decade.
- Big Brother Instinct: He had a close relationship with his younger brother Jonah. His failure to prevent Jonah’s death may have been an impetus to leave home.
- Cool Big Bro: It would not have seemed unusual to Tim for Jonah to ask him to attend his baseball ball game in place of their mother nor would it be unusual for Tim to be able to mentor Jonah on the importance of teamwork and giving everyone a fair chance.
- Dark and Troubled Past: It is revealed that he had a difficult relationship with his mother who eventually had him committed into a mental institution. His younger brother Jonah had passed away 10 years before the start of the series.
- Determinator: Seeing a gun pointed at Maya, He manages to wrest himself free from two SARS agents to jump in front of it. He will stop at nothing to save his charges. This also serves as his Fatal Flaw.
- Fatal Flaw: No matter how bad the odds are, his desire to save lives will lead him to put himself in harm’s way.
- Nice Guy: An overall affable, patient, and compassionate person in contrast to Nolan’s often gruff, sometimes insensitive demeanor.
Lucy Graves
Lucy Graves
"I know we forget to say these things when we should. But we don’t forget them, and we don’t forget you.''
- Nice Girl: She is the cheeriest of the group and the most open with her emotions.
- No Social Skills: She is rather awkward in her interactions with Tim early on. Later, she is seen in sheep pajamas talking on the phone with him.
Marianne Graves
Marianne Graves
"Ugh, I hate leash laws. They’re so degrading.''
Prior to the start of the series, she is killed and her soul bound to the body of a dog. She is Lucy Graves’ older sister.
- Animalistic Abomination: Her unbound form
- Back from the Dead:
- Big Sister Instinct: She is very protective of Lucy, pushing back on Thalia’s insistence on rushing into battle with a demon“If you’re determined to repeat my mistake then you leave Lucy out of it”
Thalia
Thalia
"I know we don’t have the high ground on this one. However we play it, we’re going to need to charge up and meet it on its grounds. I’d prefer for it to not also be on its terms.''
The Legion’s combat specialist. She is decisive and unhesitant when it comes to battle. She is mysteriously protected from demonic corruption that is yet to have been explained. She had known Tim prior to the series and was the one who recruited him.
- Action Girl: Adept at combat, she is often at the front line of battle
- Dual Wielding: Her weapons of choice are the two swords she carries on her back
- Hero on Hiatus: She is sidelined in chapter 5 after being impaled with her own sword by demonically possessed Nolan
- Hot-Blooded: She has a tendency to be this way when it comes to rushing into battle even when she may be outmatched.
Nolan
Nolan
"I’ll handle it on my own.''
The Legion’s stealth expert. He is fiercely independent to a fault.
- Hero on Hiatus: He is sidelined in chapter 5 after sustaining nearly fatal injuries
- Religious Bruiser: He is a devout Catholic
Oded Dow
Oded Dow
"I don’t care.''
The Legion’s arithmancer and shot-caller. He keeps his secrets well-guarded and does not get along with the others.
- Dark and Troubled Past: This is heavily implied by his furtiveness towards the other members of the Legion and by his reaction to seeing his framed photo of him and his lost Lenore
- Jerk Ass Woobie: He is rude and uncaring towards the rest of the Legion but you can’t help but feel sorry for him seeing how happy he looks in his wedding photo and how far he had fallen to become the desperate and cold man he is now.
- Mission Control: With the exception of an operation in chapter 3 that he has kept from the other members of the Legion, Oded has stayed on the sidelines deploying the others and calling the shots
