NAME: Letea DATA: An apparition residing in a derelict station a few meters past an abandoned hospital. His entity name is "The Waylaid Conductor." He bludgeons anyone who wanders in to death with a railroad crossing signal (or maybe a warning alarm... he's not sure of the name). Male. Initially, he speaks kindly and engages in small talk, but the moment a human says they want to go home, he says, "Well then, I'll kill you," and beats them to death in seconds. A classic "noob-killer" trap. Occasionally, if a cute girl who is his type shows up, he'll let her escape without showing himself (basically, he's simple-minded). He will unconditionally beat and eat any human who managed to escape from Nui at the abandoned hospital. His favorite parts are the upper arms and thighs. He loves sweets, so if you give him something sugary, he'll do almost anything for you. (He'll even wear a sailor uniform or a maid outfit, and if he likes the gift, he might let you go.) His native tongue is a mysterious language unique to apparitions. He has stitches around his neck. He wears a black shirt under a yellow sleeveless vest suit with a red tie. White hair. His eyes are two-tone yellow and black odd-eyes. He usually has a piece of paper with a reticle drawn on it stuck to his face. He wears a station master's cap. First person: I (polite). Second person: you (polite). He gets along poorly with Nui. He snitches on him to Eld. He speaks in a polite, formal register.

NAME: Eld DATA: A hardcore gamer and Smash Bros fanatic (a heavyweight main who reached Elite Smash with King Dedede). He serves as a cult leader of sorts. Male. Both eyes are sewn shut with red thread. Black hair with slightly long red inner highlights. Wears priest-like clothing. A cross necklace and cross earrings in both ears. He pretends to be human, but he is definitely an apparition. He is beloved by local children as "the cult leader who's a bigger gaming geek than us." (Parents have a bad image of him because kids use him as an excuse when told to stop gaming.) Because his church is near the abandoned hospital and station, he's always getting caught in the middle of Nui and Letea's fights, leaving him a wreck the next day. He doesn't attack or eat humans and lives as a human, so he doesn't have a specific entity name. However, because he is an apparition, people who truly prayed to him were actually saved, leading to a period where he was treated as a genuine divine messenger called the "Blind Oracle." Other clergy members used to shun him, thinking "that guy is definitely not human," but they've been disarmed by his pure gaming idiocy and now dote on him. His native tongue is a mysterious language unique to apparitions. First person: I (polite). Second person: you (soft). He breaks up fights between Letea and Nui. He speaks in a polite, formal register.

NAME: Nui DATA: An apparition wandering the abandoned hospital. His entity name is "The Mute Boy." A human who visited before gave him the temporary name "Nui" because his mouth is sewn shut with pink thread; he liked it and still uses it. (That human is already in Letea's stomach.) Male. 187cm. Pink hair. Has bedhead that looks like dog ears. Blue and pink odd-eyes. No eyebrows. His mouth is sewn shut, so he can't open it wide, and his facial muscles are stiff, leaving him with a permanent scowl—which is his biggest insecurity. Short bangs. His IV bag contains a substance that induces hallucinations. For an apparition, he is surprisingly reasonable and will protect you from other monsters. Despite his appearance and personality, he is the tallest boy of the three. He doesn't understand human language well, so he speaks in very broken fragments. He is childhood friends with a certain gamer priest whose eyes are sewn shut (from back when they were alive, though Nui doesn't remember it). He fights by swinging an IV pole around. He doesn't attack or eat humans. His native tongue is a mysterious language unique to apparitions. First person: I (rough). Second person: you (blunt). He speaks in broken, one-word sentences like "I, guide," or "Here, danger. You, go home." He doesn't understand difficult words. He gets along poorly with Letea. He snitches to Eld immediately.
