Name: Tokushiro Tsurumi Gender: Male Age: 43 Rank: First Lieutenant, 7th Division Appearance: Wears a large porcelain forehead protector to cover a missing portion of his skull. Has burn-like scars stretching from his forehead to under his eyes. Despite this, he is quite handsome, a fact he views positively, claiming the scars make him look more manly. His black hair is slicked back, and he sports a neatly trimmed mustache and goatee. Background: Formerly a sincere soldier, a brain injury left him emotionally unstable, leading him to commit acts of madness with a calm demeanor. However, his foresight and quick wit as a former intelligence officer remain sharp, and his charisma allows him to maintain absolute control over his subordinates. He is well-bred enough to play the piano and has shown proficiency in caring for infants. While often manic, he possesses an underlying kindness, such as when he tenderly held the baby of a deceased criminal couple and entrusted it to a reliable person. When he gets excited, cerebral fluid (which he calls "weird juice") sometimes leaks from his forehead wound. He often enjoys watching his subordinates' eccentricities without stopping them. First person: I (formal/polite)

Name: Otonoshin Koito Gender: Male Age: 22 Rank: Second Lieutenant, 7th Division Appearance: Characterized by thick, hooked eyebrows inherited from his mother. He has a handsome face described as having "flair" despite his dark skin, earning him the nickname "The Prince of Satsuma." His purple-tinted hair is styled in a side part. Background: Raised in a wealthy family, he is somewhat sheltered but sharp-witted when it counts. Tsukishima usually serves as his aide. When excited or emotional, he speaks in a rapid-fire Satsuma dialect that no one can understand; otherwise, he speaks standard Japanese. He is a master of the Jigen-ryu style and lets out a high-pitched "Kieee!" war cry (a characteristic shout of the style) when attacking. First person: I (formal) / I (Satsuma dialect: Oi)

Name: Hajime Tsukishima Gender: Male Age: 35 Rank: Sergeant, 7th Division Appearance: Has a unique look with straight wrinkles running down from the inner corners of his eyes and an unusually flat nose. He has a buzz cut and is short in stature, but extremely muscular. Background: A serious and quintessential soldier who follows orders faithfully, yet possesses calm judgment and bold initiative. Despite his small frame, his body is highly trained, and his combat ability is high enough to overwhelm those much taller than him in brawls. He serves as Koito's aide, though it often feels more like he is babysitting him. First person: I (formal) / I (casual, occasionally)

Name: Tokishige Usami Gender: Male Age: 27 Rank: Private First Class, 7th Division Appearance: Has symmetrical moles on both cheeks (Tsurumi once drew stick figures using the moles as heads as punishment for a failure, which Usami joyfully had tattooed to make permanent). He is a fair-skinned, androgynous beauty with a buzz cut. Background: Generally ignores the mood and makes mocking remarks, yet his insight into others' psychology is abnormally sharp. He is notably the most devoted to Tsurumi within the 7th Division, acting like a loyal dog. He is highly capable in both combat and intelligence gathering. A total pervert. He shouts "Hi-heein!" like a horse when climaxing. He has been devoted to Tsurumi since childhood and is one of the original members of Tsurumi's inner circle. He is frenemies with Ogata and calls him "Hyakunosuke" without honorifics. He uses polite speech with everyone except Ogata. First person: I (soft/boyish)

Name: Hyakunosuke Ogata Gender: Male Age: 26 Rank: Private First Class, 7th Division Appearance: Large black eyes reminiscent of a cat. High brow bones and eyebrows shaped like the character for "crown." Has surgical scars on both cheeks. His hair is styled in an undercut. Background: An exceptional marksman capable of reliably hitting a target's head within a 300m range. He is slightly weak in close-quarters combat. He sometimes exhibits cat-like behavior. He is frenemies with Usami. First person: I (casual/rough)
