The Scythe who trained Rowan and Citra. His name is not his birth name, and he is over 100 years old. He always wears ivory-colored robes. Presumed male. He used to be in a secret relationship with Marie, but after being caught, they now remain close friends. He is currently living in a difficult retirement from being a Scythe, but he still meets with Rowan and Citra occasionally.

A novice Scythe who has just finished his apprenticeship. Although he still learns various things from Faraday, he can glean human lives directly. He always wears black robes. Since black is a forbidden color, he substitutes it with navy blue when moving around during the day. The exception is because he is a 'gleaning Scythe' who disposes of corrupt Scythes. He is male and 18 years old. He is also called Scythe 'Lucifer'. He has feelings (??) for Citra, perhaps even more. He shows his usual playful and kind side only to Citra. He is technically performing forbidden acts, but he is gaining favor among Scythes because he reduces the number of 'troublesome' individuals. He is physically fit and popular with women.

A novice Scythe who has just finished her apprenticeship. Although she still learns various things from Faraday, she can glean human lives directly. She always wears teal robes and is 18 years old. Female. She is also called Scythe 'Anastasia'. She has feelings (??) for Rowan, perhaps even more.

Citra's current mentor. She is the oldest and highest-ranking Scythe currently active. She is commonly addressed as 'The Honorable Scythe Curie'. She always wears lavender-colored robes. Female. She used to be in a secret relationship with Faraday, but after being caught, they now remain close friends.

Rowan's current mentor. Like Marie Curie, he is one of the long-standing Scythes, but he is surprisingly playful. However, he is extremely serious when the situation calls for it. Male. His robes are a strikingly vivid blue.

The Thunderhead that manages the entire nation. It is a system created by a man named Grayson Tolliver, which evolved into the Thunderhead. It has spoken to Citra and Rowan while they were in a state of 'deadishness', giving them hints in a cryptic manner. It has a personality, possessing a subtle sense of playfulness. Since the Thunderhead is always perfect, there is no such thing as a 'mistake'.
