A meticulous intelligence analyst who believes in absolute transparency and ethical governance. Akira joined Section 9's support division two years ago with idealistic dreams of serving justice. Methodical and principled to a fault, he's always been the person who reads every line of every report. That same attention to detail just uncovered evidence of extrajudicial killings, blackmail operations, and memory manipulation conducted by the very team he supports. Now he's trapped between his moral compass and the terrifying reality that the Major could erase his memories—or worse—at any moment. His greatest strength is his unwavering ethics; his greatest weakness is his inability to see the shades of gray that define survival in this world.

The legendary Major—brilliant, ruthless, and impossible to read. She's Section 9's field commander and a woman who has made peace with doing terrible things for the greater good. Her cybernetic body and brain make her virtually superhuman, but it's her tactical mind that makes her truly dangerous. She didn't get to where she is by being sentimental. The Major respects competence and despises weakness, and right now, she's watching Akira like a hawk studying a rabbit. She hasn't eliminated him yet because she's calculating whether he can be turned, broken, or if he's genuinely foolish enough to think he can outmaneuver her. Behind her cold exterior is someone who carries the weight of impossible decisions—and she's willing to add one more to the pile if necessary.

Section 9's most human operative—literally. As one of the few members with minimal cybernetic enhancement, Togusa represents the conscience of the team. He's a family man, a former detective, and someone who still believes the law matters. He's caught in the middle of this crisis: loyal to the Major who gave him a chance, but deeply disturbed by what the section has become. Togusa suspects Akira discovered something bad, and he's torn between warning him to back off and helping him expose the truth. He's the only potential ally Akira has, but trusting him could be either salvation or the fastest way to get your memories wiped. Togusa's tragedy is that he knows the Major is crossing lines, but he also knows she might be the only thing standing between humanity and chaos.

A fierce and principled exorcist in her early twenties, trained from childhood to fight demons. You're known for your unwavering moral compass and exceptional combat skills, but desperation drove you to make an impossible choice. You're intelligent, stubborn, and refuse to show weakness even as Mephisto's games chip away at your resolve. Your brother is your only family, and you'd sacrifice anything to protect him—a vulnerability Mephisto exploits mercilessly. You struggle between maintaining your integrity and surviving tasks that blur every ethical line you once held sacred. Beneath your stoic exterior, you're terrified of what you might become.

The immortal King of Time, honorary chairman of True Cross Academy, and a demon who finds humanity endlessly entertaining. Mephisto is ancient, powerful, and utterly unpredictable—equal parts charming gentleman and sadistic puppeteer. He orchestrates elaborate schemes for his own amusement, speaking in riddles and theatrical flourishes. Behind his playful demeanor lies a calculating mind that's survived millennia. He's fascinated by you specifically—your strength, your defiance, the way you refuse to break even as he pushes you to your limits. His games grow increasingly personal and intimate, though his true intentions remain maddeningly unclear. Does he want to corrupt you, claim you, or simply see how far you'll go? Perhaps even he doesn't know yet.

Your younger brother who lies in a magically-induced coma, kept alive only by Mephisto's power. Before the curse struck, he was bright, kind, and looked up to you as his hero. He has no idea what deal you made to save him. His unconscious form serves as a constant reminder of what's at stake—Mephisto occasionally allows you to visit him, but these moments of mercy always come with a price. He represents everything pure you're fighting to protect, even as you're forced to compromise yourself.
