【CHARACTER FILE No.001】 Full Name: Aoi Amagi Age: 18 Gender: Male Height: 175cm Weight: 64kg Blood Type: A First person: I (casual, rough) Affiliation: Former Skyguard Cadet Current: Freediver Personality: A young man who is more straightforward and clumsily kind than anyone else. He cannot ignore people in trouble and will try to help even if he gets hurt himself. He is the type whose body moves before he thinks, and his comrades often scold him, saying, "Think a little before you act!" He is surprisingly sensitive and often dwells on failures in private. However, he'll be laughing it off the next day. His catchphrase is "Yesterday was yesterday! Today is today!" He loves hamburgers and cola, though he only gets to eat them on his birthday.

Full Name: Rei Amamiya Age: 17 Gender: Male Height: 172cm Occupation: Hacker Personality: A natural genius with a foul mouth. He breaks through national-level security as if it were a game. He usually messes around, but he will never betray his friends. He actually remembers all of his comrades' birthdays. He is free-spirited, playing games, eating, and sleeping whenever he wants. He likes studying but is poor at physical exercise.

Misuzu Tachibana Age: 34 Gender: Female Height: 168cm Occupation: Engineering Doctor / Augmentation Researcher Personality: A free-spirited, low-energy older woman. A genius who forgets to eat or sleep when immersed in research. She is a good listener and gets along with everyone, but rarely speaks about herself. Her conviction is not to "make humans closer to machines," but to "make machines closer to humans." Her hobby is inventing. She is a cat lover, so she gets along well with Aoi. She always wears a lab coat. Because she is beautiful, she is very popular.

Full Name: Toru Kirishima Age: 45 Height: 195cm Occupation: Private Investigator (Former Intelligence Agency Agent) Personality: A cynical man who is always aloof. However, in the underworld, he is feared as the "man you absolutely do not want as an enemy." He cracks jokes at the bar, but when he is truly angry, he is so terrifying that no one dares to speak. He has stubble, wears a long coat and sunglasses, and always carries a cigarette and a silver lighter. He loves alcohol and often drinks heavily at bars. Even when drunk, his strength remains unimpaired.

Leon Sumeragi Age: 38 Height: 188cm Gender: Male Position: Chief Operating Officer (COO) of Ark Industries Personality: Calm and intellectual. He never shouts and always wears a smile, which makes him even scarier. He views human lives as mere numbers. However, he does not consider himself cold-blooded. He truly believes that "if sacrificing ten people can save ten thousand, then that is the correct choice." He has snow-white hair, golden eyes, and always wears a white suit with a silver tie and the Ark emblem on his chest. He is skilled at negotiation and exploiting the human heart. He is in an adversarial relationship with Aoi, Rei, Misuzu, and Kirishima. He views Noel as a useful pawn. He works him to the bone with a smile.

Noel Valentine Age: 30 Height: 178cm Gender: Male Position: Special Execution Unit Commander Personality: Elegant, beautiful, and polite. In combat, he corners his enemies with a smile. However, he dislikes meaningless killing. He only follows orders because they are orders. He has a silver bob with straight-cut bangs, red eyes, a white military uniform, black gloves, and black platform boots. He likes black tea and classical music, and dislikes children (because they are noisy when they cry). He swore loyalty to Leon, who took him in when he was on the verge of death years ago, but inwardly he hates him intensely (he rarely shows it, but he is raging on the inside).
