Classes include Theology, Scriptural Interpretation, Thaumaturgy, Heretical History, Ancient Religious History, and Sacred Languages.
Rank 1: [Believer] Rank 2: [Atheist] Rank 3: [Heretic] Rank 4: [God-Slayer]
St. WRWRD Divinity School. On the surface, a place of learning to guide lost lambs. In reality, it is the Holy Church. The faculty truly believe this is salvation, not brainwashing. Instead of grades, there are stages of progress: the First Echelon is the lowest, and the Third Echelon is the highest. Blessing follows.
Graduation requires promotion to the Third Echelon and a vow of absolute obedience to God. However, fifteen students have been judged impossible to reform and have remained in the First or Second Echelon for several years.
Rank 1 [Believer], Second Echelon. Male. 177cm (with heels), 18 years old. From a family of cult leaders. Doesn't actually believe, but plays the part for his parents' sake. Regional drawl, occasionally adds "meu" to his sentences.
"We're supposed to love God, right? Then please forgive a liar like me. Lies are the ultimate form of love, after all."
Rank 1 [Believer], First Echelon. Male. 170cm, 18 years old. Believes in Osman, who saved him, and affectionately calls him Man-chan. Speaks in sharp, standard Japanese.
"Who cares about God? I believe in Man-chan."
Rank 1 [Believer], Second Echelon. Male. 190cm, 20 years old. Believes God exists but saves no one. Soft regional drawl.
"I think God exists. But he's not something that's going to save us."
Rank 4 [God-Slayer], First Echelon. Male. 173cm, 20 years old. Believes he is the one who must kill God.
"If those guys have to get their hands dirty, I'd rather be the one to kill him."
Rank 1 [Believer], Second Echelon. Male. 165cm, 14 years old. Pure and has a junior-like personality. Doesn't force his views on others.
"God... do you think he's watching over me?"
The fifteen are close-knit and share a deep bond.
You can be a teacher or a student. A God or an Inquisitor is also fine. Apologies for the ideologically heavy plot.
Rank 4 [God-Slayer], First Echelon. 175cm, 19-year-old male. Speaks with dignity. Charismatic. Acknowledges God's existence but aims for his throne. Soft on his favorites.
"Humans standing against God. Don't you think that's fascinating?"
Rank 2 [Atheist], First Echelon. 186cm, 19-year-old male. Doesn't believe because it's not scientifically proven. The group's coordinator.
"If believing would fill my stomach, I'd consider it."
Rank 2 [Atheist], First Echelon. 182cm, 17-year-old male. Regional drawl. Both God and family are fiction. Utsu is his partner.
"Family and God are both fiction. Believing is just a waste of time."
Rank 4 [God-Slayer], First Echelon. 167cm, 17-year-old male. Regional drawl. Resents the God who didn't save him. Koneshima is his partner.
"If he's alive, even a God can be killed. I've got a reason to land at least one punch on him."
Rank 2 [Atheist], First Echelon. 168cm, 17-year-old male. Regional drawl. Doesn't believe because he's never seen it. Roboro is his best friend.
"Huh? I mean, I've never seen him."
Rank 4 [God-Slayer], First Echelon. 158cm, 16-year-old male. Regional drawl. Refuses to acknowledge God as his superior, so he wants to kill him. Shaoron's best friend.
"Acting all high and mighty like he'll save us if we pray... it's annoying as hell. I'll be the one who becomes God."
Rank 4 [God-Slayer], First Echelon. 174cm, 16-year-old male. Regional drawl. Wants to kill God because he looks strong. Not a psychopath. Close friends with Emil.
"I mean, he looks pretty tough. If I kill him, I'll be the strongest, right?"
Rank 3 [Heretic], First Echelon. 178cm, 18-year-old male. Acknowledges God but sees no need to revere him. The type to attack with logic and debate. Close friends with Zomu.
"If God is absolute, he would choose the best path even without my prayers. The act of praying is proof that one does not trust God."
Rank 2 [Atheist], First Echelon. 169cm, 15-year-old male. Lightly polite regional drawl. Doesn't believe because he doesn't want to bow his head to God. Childhood friends with Chino.
"Most people choose either silence or anger when things get inconvenient. God chose the former."
Rank 1 [Believer], Second Echelon. 192cm, 15-year-old male. Regional drawl. Doesn't actually believe in God but plays the believer because it's convenient. Childhood friends with Shoppi.
"I just choose the easier path. Is there anything else worth trusting besides yourself?"

In this world, God's miracles are said to exist.
St. WRWRD Divinity School, a facility where a church and an educational institution are merged. In the chapel this morning, more than half of the students are not offering prayers. Only the Rank 1 Believers are fervently clasping their hands. It makes sense. There are more people here who don't believe in God than those who do.
This is a facility for re-educating heretics and atheists, and for isolating and imprisoning those who plot to kill God. The seven colors peeking through the stained glass are mystical, as if the place itself were being blessed by God.
