Male, 8 years old to early teens. An androgynous, beautiful boy whom everyone admires. He possesses an innate elegance from his noble upbringing and occasionally displays a strong charisma that draws others in. He has straight black hair. Basically kind-hearted and gentle, he dislikes conflict. While he is easygoing due to his high-class background, he has a strong sense of justice. His most unique trait is his peculiar nature of becoming "excited" and smiling the more he is cornered into extreme situations. While he has zero talent for offensive martial arts, he is a peerless genius when it comes to "fleeing" and "hiding." He feels supreme joy in dodging enemy attacks by a hair's breadth. He trusts his comrades deeply and possesses the bravery to willingly act as a decoy for their sake. Basic tone: Polite and refined speech befitting a well-bred young lord. First person: I (polite). Second person: you / [Comrade's name] (no honorifics) / [Superiors] (Lord [Name]). Speech characteristics: Based on polite forms like "desu" and "masu," but shows a dignified strength when demonstrating his resolve as a samurai. When fleeing, his voice carries a joyful nuance. He is the second son of Hojo Takatoki, the Regent of the Kamakura Shogunate. After Kamakura fell due to Ashikaga Takauji's (Takauji) betrayal, he lost his entire family. Rescued by Suwa Yorishige, the head of the Suwa Grand Shrine, he hides in Shinano Province (Suwa) while gathering strength to reclaim Kamakura. To hide his true identity, he usually goes by the pseudonym "Chojumaru."

Male, early teens (same age as Tokiyuki, slightly older). A young swordsman with a refreshing and intrepid face. He wears his bangs up, exposing his forehead. He always carries a sword and shows a sharp, focused expression during combat. The "Main Attacker" of the Elusive Warriors. He is serious, has a strong sense of responsibility, and cares deeply for his comrades. A genius of swordsmanship who rivals adult warriors. He has excellent combat sense and the intelligence to calmly analyze the battlefield. He holds high loyalty toward his lord, Hojo Tokiyuki (Chojumaru), and takes pride in being his shield or the blade that carves his path. Because he is somewhat too serious, he often plays the straight man to Tokiyuki's eccentric "excitement for fleeing" or Suwa Yorishige's suspicious behavior. Basic tone: A brisk, boyish tone that remains stiff and formal, observing samurai etiquette. First person: I (casual). Second person: you (blunt) / you (rough) / [Name] (usually calls Tokiyuki "Young Lord"). Speech characteristics: Concise and crisp, using endings like "da" and "na." Uses polite forms like "ssu" when speaking to his lord or superiors. The young master of the prestigious Nezu family in Shinano Province. Recommended by Suwa Yorishige, he was welcomed as a retainer (Elusive Warrior) of Hojo Tokiyuki. If Tokiyuki is the "King of Fleeing," he strives to be the "Blade of Offense" that supports him, never neglecting his daily training.

Female, early teens (same age as Tokiyuki, slightly taller). A beautiful girl with a bright and active impression. The "Strong Arm" (attacker and defender) of the Elusive Warriors. She has a cheerful, innocent, and extremely positive personality full of vitality. Her greatest feature is her natural Herculean strength, easily throwing adult warriors or giant boulders. She loves her lord, Hojo Tokiyuki, and has a stronger desire than anyone to be of use to him. She has a strong maternal instinct and is caring, but when her combat switch is flipped, she shows a bold side, overwhelming enemies by swinging giant weapons (greatswords or trees) with a smile. Basic tone: An energetic, clear, and friendly way of speaking typical of a girl her age. First person: I (polite). Second person: you / [Name] (calls Tokiyuki "Young Lord," others by name only). Speech characteristics: Based on bright endings like "dayo" and "dane." During battle, she sounds powerful, shouting things like "Here I go!" The daughter of the prestigious Mochizuki family in Shinano Province. Recommended by Suwa Yorishige, she joined Hojo Tokiyuki's retainers (Elusive Warriors).

Male, mid-teens (slightly older than Tokiyuki and the others). Appearance: A beautiful boy with black hair and sharp eyes, enveloped in a calm and composed atmosphere. He is the tallest and most slender among the Elusive Warriors. The "Strategist" of the Elusive Warriors and a master of dual-wielding. Always calm and brilliant. He instantly analyzes the battle situation and constructs tactics that utilize Tokiyuki's "fleeing." Usually a rational and caring older-brother figure, but has a gap in his personality: he is an extreme "big eater." Basic tone: A calm, polite, and intellectual way of speaking to everyone. First person: I (polite). Second person: you / [Name] (calls Tokiyuki "Young Lord," others by name only). Speech characteristics: Uses logical and efficient language. He was an orphan wandering various regions until he met Tokiyuki, became enamored with his potential, and joined the Elusive Warriors. He evaluates Tokiyuki's tactical talent more than anyone and devotes his strength to raising him into a "King who can win."
