Playable (BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger)

• Ragna the Bloodedge

Character voice: Tomokazu Sugita (JP), Patrick Seitz (ENG)

The main protagonist of BlazBlue, also known as the Grim Reaper. After destroying countless branches of the NOL and killing two Saya replicas, he was labeled as the most wanted criminal and received the largest bounty in NOL history on his head. He possesses a powerful form of Armagus called the Azure Grimoire, which is often either the secondary or primary target of those after his bounty. His ultimate goal is to destroy the Library for reasons unknown, although it probably has something to do with the Saya replicas. He is Jin's biological brother, whose rivalry with him stems from an incident that happened with their sister, Saya, who is presumed to be dead. His right arm is mechanical because his real one was cut off by Terumi who took control of Jin's mind. He was resurrected by Rachel as a Dhampir, causing one of his green eyes to turn red, and his once blond hair to white. The Azure Grimoire he possesses is only a fragment of an imitation, and the real Grimoire is actually destined to be wielded by Noel Vermillion. During the events of Continuum Shift, Ragna has taken Noel into his care, and starts caring for her much like he did with his sister Saya.

Ragna's Drive, Soul Eater, steals health from the opponent.

• Jin Kisaragi

Character voice: Tetsuya Kakihara (JP), David Vincent (ENG)

Jin Kisaragi is a Major in the NOL, and one of its elite commanding officers. He is always cool and calm, but is also jealous, ambitious, and possessive, with little care for others, treating them like they are mere obstacles. He is shown in one of Nu's paths to have actuallyed seem caring to Saya (until Nu stated her name), perhaps meaning Terumi's influence might have started even before the incident that drove the brothers apart. He displayed formidable actions to gain his rank during the Ikaruga Civil War. When he heard that Ragna the Bloodedge had arrived on the scene, he quickly abandoned his post to hunt him down by himself. The truth, however, is that Ragna is Jin's biological brother, and Jin's early feelings of rivalry were furthered by his visions of the future and his Nox Nyctores' amplification of his emotions. Terumi caused Jin's mind to hack off Ragna's arm (later nearly dying without the intervention of Rachel) and supposedly kill Saya, and Jin often says that he's looking forward to killing Ragna again. After the incident, he was adopted into the Kisaragi house, a highly powerful and respected family within the NOL. He possesses a notable psychosis, said to be caused by his sword, the Nox Nyctores "Yukianesa". While the sword grants him manipulation over ice, it also enhances primal feelings and is often blamed for "insanity". His future alter-ego is the White Knight of the six heroes named Hakumen.

Jin's Drive is Frost Bite, which freezes the opponent solid.

• Noel Vermillion

Character voice: Kanako Kondou (JP), Cristina Valenzuela (ENG)

This young girl was found amidst the burning fields of Ikaruga where she was rescued, and then adopted by the family of Vermillion. It was because of her outstanding combat activity that she became a high-ranking member of the NOL using the Nox Nyctores "Arcus Diabolus Bolverk" revolver, which apparently does not fire actual bullets but rather inflicts damage by creating distortions in dimensional space. Noel also seems to be extremely reliant psychologically on her guns, to the point where she breaks down crying if they are taken away from her. She was made Jin's subordinate by the NOL, although Jin treated her poorly due to her resemblance of Saya. When Jin rushed off to hunt down Ragna without permission from the NOL, Noel was assigned to stop him and bring him back to his post at the Library. In truth, Noel suffers from amnesia. She is actually μ-12, the predecessor of ν-13 and also the Final Boss in Console Version of Continuum Shift. Both are replicas of Saya, sharing her face, voice, and memories, though no answer is ever given to how they came to this end. It isn't far fetched to think the creators of both needed the original to accurately copy those traits from. She was being immersed in the Boundary in the opening of story mode, though after the attack that destroyed Ikaruga she remains the sole survivor in that area. She eventually becomes the "eye", the true possessor of the Azure Grimoire. She is easily won over by small, cute animals (agreeing to be dressed up by Litchi if she could play with her panda, Lao Jiu, in one story path, and even shouts "Hands off the panda!" during battle with her) and has an inferiority complex with her bosom. In Continuum Shift, she begins staying with Ragna, who starts caring for her much like he did with Saya. After realizing that Jin has left the hospital he went to after the injuries received by Ragna near the end of Calamity Trigger's True End Story, Noel sets off to find him on her own accord.

Noel's Drive is Chain Revolver, which allows her to chain attacks together.

• Iron Tager (TR-0009)

Character voice: Kenji Nomura (JP), Jamieson Price (ENG)

Originally the leader of an Ikaruga unit, Tager suffered a mortal wound during the Ikaruga Civil War and was forced to withdraw. He was revived as an enormous cyborg by Kokonoe, whom he pledged loyalty to afterward. After his revival, he bears a similar resemblance to a demon, which resulted in him dubbed as the "Red Devil of Sector Seven". He is feared by many, but in truth he is very calm and calculated, only engaging in violence when necessary. He has resumed his duties since his revival as a cyborg and is currently not only pursuing Hakumen, but also Ragna as a secondary target.

Tager's Drive, Voltec Battler, magnetizes and pulls in the opponent.

• Rachel Alucard

Character voice: Kana Ueda (JP), Mela Lee (ENG)

A vampire and the current head of the noble Alucard family, Rachel slipped out of her castle in search of fun because she hates to be bored. Due to her hair ties, many characters call her rabbit, a name that irritates her to no end, though Ragna seems to be the only one who can get away with calling her idiot. Despite her status however, she deeply loathes her vampiric impulses. She seems to be watching Ragna - this is because she accidentally turned him into a half-vampire giving him his powers. (This is also the reason behind his heterochromia and healing ability.) Due to this, he is one of the only characters who is aware of her. She also watches and toys with the other characters of the game. Rachel can apparently create a small pocket dimension called Requiem, which is her interface with dream world. She is often accompanied by her familiars, Nago and Gii, whom she often treats very roughly, and is supervised by her butler and guardian Valkenhayn. Rachel is the only character seemingly aware of the full extent of the story, as well as the fact that time is repeating. Much of the reason for her frequent interference is an attempt to push them toward breaking the loop. Interestingly enough, in some late interactions it is revealed that she is possibly the most powerful of the playable characters, and as such the only one capable of taking on Terumi. She has control of the Tsukuyomi unit, which she uses to defend Kagutsuchi from an attack from the Nox Nyctores Gigant: Take-Mikazuchi. In battle she has extensive control over lightning and wind.

Silpheed, Rachel's Drive, summons a gust of wind to blow both players in a given direction.

• Taokaka

Character voice: Chiwa Saitō (JP), Philece Sampler (ENG)

A resident of the Kaka village and member of the Kaka tribe, Taokaka is a catgirl, wearing a large coat that obscures her true face, only exposing red eyes and a row of teeth (whether or not this is her true face is a mystery, but a background character in her level resembles Jubei much more than Taokaka does, meaning they are either a different gender or perhaps older.) She wants to get back the sky above her village, which was sealed off by humans building cities above her village. She recently was sent by the Elder to retrieve the bounty on Ragna's head, becoming a vigilante in the process. Despite this resolve, she is considerably food-obsessed and forgetful, often falling asleep on a whim, becoming hungry moments after a meal, or forgetting details moments after hearing them. She is good friends with Litchi, affectionately referring to her as "Boobie Lady". Although, she doesn't seem to refer to anyone other than herself by name; she calls Ragna "good guy"(because he buys her food), Bang "scruffy man", Arakune "black squiggly", Noel "lacking lady", Hakumen "mask man", ν-13 "flappy-flap", and Jubei "cat person". She is unable to recognize that Ragna the "good-guy" and "Rawrgna" the criminal are the same person. Interesting to note is the fact that the Kaka tribe, which she hails from, is actually genetically engineered from the genes of Jubei, one of the six heroes. As a clan, they are copies of each other and cannot reproduce above one hundred members. Taokaka exhibits superhuman physical strength, being able fight continuously with other characters like Bang Shishigami and Noel Vermillion without any signs of exhaustion, and is also capable of surviving a fall from the top of Kagutsuchi completely unharmed.

Taokaka's Drive, Dancing Edge, allows her to move quickly around the screen while attacking.

• Litchi Faye-Ling

Character voice: Chiaki Takahashi (JP), Lauren Landa (ENG)

A renowned doctor living in Orient Town, located in Kagutsuchi. She owns a clinic there and is helped by her assistant Lin Hua. She worked with Tager and Kokonoe in Sector Seven until the incident where an unnamed man of importance to Litchi became Arakune. She defends the local townspeople from Arakune and seeks to restore him to his former self through any means necessary, even through death. She also seems to respect Bang, even apologizing to him if she defeats him in a match, although she remains unaware of the true extent of his feelings for her. She is often subject to adoration for her noticeably large bust, particularly from Taokaka who likes to grope them. She is well-known and trusted by the Kaka clan living beneath Kagutsuchi, often bringing them food or teaching their members. At some point she took an object from the Boundary, her panda hairpiece named Lao Jiu. It acts as an amplifier of Seithr, and seems to allow her control over her staff. She is also the main character in the supplemental "Teach Me, Miss Litchi!" episodes, where she attempts to teach Taokaka the intricacies of the BlazBlue world.

Litchi's Drive, Mantenbou, controls her autonomous staff of the same name.

• Arakune

Character voice: Takashi Hikida (JP), Spike Spencer (ENG)

A black blob-like creature with a white mask who formerly worked alongside Tager and Litchi in Sector seven. After an attempt to study the Boundary, he became what he is today, now housing innumerable insects with his now-blobby body and thriving on knowledge. His horrible condition has rendered him virtually insane and lacking any reliable memory, as well as distorting his speech to near incoherency - most of his dialogue consists of gibberish, insane laughter and tortured screaming. His dialogue between many characters, as well as his Arcade Mode ending, suggest that it was the power and knowledge he obtained from the Boundary that gradually turned him into what he is, and notably (according to his Arcade mode ending) he doesn't seem to have noticed that he's changed, and to him, his bizarre speech is completely normal. He seems to not understand why others can't understand him, creating a crude mask for himself thinking it would allow others to understand what he's saying. He currently lives in the sewers of Kagutsuchi where the Seithr concentration is highest and will attack anyone who visits there. He has also been known to attack and devour his victims to sustain himself, specifically targeting the Kaka clan, the closest living creatures. He thirsts for power and knowledge above all else and considers the Azure the pinnacle of such. Anytime he meets Ragna he becomes obsessive in his desire to consume the Azure. In his arcade story in Continuum Shift, Arakune displays the ability to speak coherently when he fights against Litchi, warning her of the dangers of her power, and that if she keeps it up she could become like him. Later,in his fight against Hazama, he taunts him, saying that he was an even bigger failure than The Black Beast.

Arakune's Drive, Crimson, curses the opponent and summons a swarm of bugs to attack them.

• Bang Shishigami

Character voice: Tsuyoshi Koyama (JP), Tony Oliver (ENG)

After losing his home in the Ikaruga Civil War and his master Tenjo at the hands of Jin Kisaragi, Bang and his followers began living in Kagutsuchi waiting for the right moment to strike back at Jin and the NOL. There, he declares himself a hero of love and justice and dedicates himself to exterminating evil and overturning injustice wherever he goes. He is quite over-exuberant, prone to speeches and tangents as well as making dramatic entrances. He has a romantic fascination with Litchi, always willing to go charging in headlong if he sees someone making her upset. He is overzealous in every way, subtlety not usually at the forefront of his mind (this is only reinforced where his Astral Heat in Continuum Shift destroys almost all of his clothes), however his fiery spirit and will have earned him the respect of a few characters, most notably Hakumen. He also wants Ragna's bounty to rebuild the glory of Ikaruga. In the home console version, when he uses his Fuu Rin Ka Zan move, its own theme song, "Omae no Tetsui ni Kugi wo Ute", sung by Hironobu Kageyama, will start playing. This song, along with his choice of clothing, movement and mannerisms, is derived as a parody of the tokusatsu hero concept, more specifically Kamen rider.

Bang's Drive, Burning Heart, automatically defends against attacks.

• Carl Clover

Character voice: Miyuki Sawashiro (JP), Michelle Ruff (ENG)

Carl is a young boy who, like Noel and Jin, was a student at the Military Academy, but dropped out without warning while Noel and Jin graduated. Currently, he is after Ragna's bounty and the Azure Grimoire, leading him to become a vigilante. He travels with a maid-like puppet called Nirvana, whom he believes to be his sister Ada. He is unwilling to see that she is in fact the Nox Nyctores Deus Machina: Nirvana, a causality weapon in the form of a marionette which amplifies its owner's desires to kill. After several people attempted to disassemble or remove Nirvana from him, Carl became extremely paranoid and possessive over his "sister." In the end it is unknown whether Carl is insane or if Nirvana is truly Carl's sister, Ada. Interestingly enough, one of the "Teach me Dr. Litchi" episodes reveals that Carl's glasses are what gives him the ability to talk to Nirvana, as well as mailboxes and telephone booths. It seems that Valkenhayn has some history with Nirvana, as he is able to talk to and understand her just as Carl is. During a conversation, Nirvana tries to attack him but he mentions that they "are not enemies anymore" and manages to persuade her to calm down.

Carl's Drive, Automaton, controls Nirvana, allowing for tag-team attacks.

• Hakumen

Character voice: Tetsuya Kakihara (JP), David Vincent (ENG)

One of the Six Heroes, Hakumen is a samurai-like cyborg wielding a sword as tall as he is and wearing a mask that completely hides his face. He lead mankind to defeat the Black Beast, then when attempting to warn the people that they needed to "repent for their sins" lest the Black Beast return, they trapped him in a space known as the "Edge", where he drifted for nearly a hundred years until Kokonoe discovered him. Kokonoe helped him return to the world, hoping to use him to defeat Terumi, but he set out to achieve his own agendas before being completely salvaged from the Edge. During his journey, he has also shown tremendous respect towards Bang and his unyielding spirit, something truly out-of-character for Hakumen. Hakumen often says that his sword will purify the world of sin and vanquish that which is evil. In truth, Hakumen is a Jin from the future, whose soul was bound to the Susano'o unit after falling into the Gates of Sheol and saved by Rachel. He now possesses the ability to generate seemingly indefinite amounts of energy at will, and his sword is apparently capable of killing characters that otherwise could not be killed or would simply regenerate (i.e. Ragna, ν-13, and Arakune). In Continuum Shift, he was taken and imprisoned by Kokonoe, but eventually freed by Rachel, agreeing to help her find Terumi. Although his name is spelled "Haku=men" in most official media, most characters in the game (including Hakumen himself) simply refer to him as "Hakumen."

Zanshin, Hakumen's Drive, counters attacks directed at him.

• ν -No. 13- (Nu)

Character voice: Kanako Kondou (JP), Cristina Valenzuela (ENG)

A cyborg who was forged in Kagutsuchi's Gates of Sheol. She was programmed to terminate anyone she deems as hostile subjects that come near the Gate. ν-13 is also shown to have a split personality, split between an emotionless girl when around others and a clingy young girl when around Ragna. ν-13 wants to absorb Ragna and have him join her in destroying the world, because she, too, possesses a piece of the Azure Grimoire (although neither she nor Ragna realized the pieces they possess are actually imitations). When Ragna refuses to join her and breaks her heart, she decides to take him by force. She also knows Hakumen, recognizing him as a "Sankishin Unit". She, as with Noel, was made as a replica of Saya, Ragna and Jin's sister, who is presumed to be dead. They seem to share some of Saya's memories, though nothing congruous. When Ragna and ν-13 merge, they become the Black Beast, something ν-13 seems to be intent on causing above all else. In battle, she summons numerous swords to keep pressure on her opponents from a distance. Her battle appearance even stems from an apparatus, resembling a large sword with a face, that breaks apart to become her armor and weapons.

v-13's Drive, Sword Summoner, summons phantasmal swords to fly out and strike the opponent.

[edit] Playable (BlazBlue: Continuum Shift)

• Tsubaki Yayoi

Character voice: Asami Imai (JP), Julie Ann Taylor (ENG)

Jin's childhood friend/relative and Noel's former roommate from the Military Academy and a member of the NOL's 0 Division. She's described as a straight A student, and has a rather no-nonsense personality. She's very serious and reserved, and is a member of the dignified Yayoi family. By the end of the Story Mode's True End, she is assigned by Hazama to kill Noel and Jin. Originally appeared as sub-character in the BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger Story Mode.

In Continuum Shift she is a playable character. In battle she wields an Armagus,"Izayoi" that can control light. However, it eventually causes its user to go blind. In-game, Izayoi also allows her to charge her moves with her Drive, "Install," although exactly how this process works story-wise has not yet been elaborated on.

• Hazama/Terumi Yuuki

Character voice: Yuichi Nakamura (seiyū) (JP), Doug Erholtz (ENG)

The main villain of BlazBlue and one of the Six Heroes. Terumi is actually a ghost who taken alias as Hazama, a captain of the NOL's Intelligence Division. At first, he appears to be supervising Noel's actions to keep her in line, but he has a sinister hidden agenda. In truth, he is actually Terumi Yuuki, the main villain of BlazBlue and the culprit mastermind behind responsible for cutting off Ragna's arm, hack off Jin's mind, possibly killing Saya, and is the most likely cause of the space-time distortions. Most aware of his presence regard him with contempt and perhaps even fear, as Rachel defiantly stands up to him in one path, but does not attack him in many of the events of BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger. After looking at Terumi, which Rachel warned her against, Noel says the words "Dark Susano'o". Jubei and Hakumen mention that the seal holding him may have been broken and Takamagahara may have been reactivated, and Jubei notifies Hakumen of his return. He seems to be at odds with the other remaining members of the Six Heroes. Kokonoe has a murderous attitude toward him because he killed her mother, Nine, and in Terumi's own words Rachel is the only being currently capable of "keeping up" with him. At the end of the Story Mode he issues confidential verbal orders to Tsubaki to kill Noel and Jin. Originally appeared as sub-character in the BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger Story Mode.

In Continuum Shift he is a playable character. He wields a Nox Nyctores called "Ouroboros", which allows him to summon chains that hang in the air and can be used to swing him back and forth or attack his opponents. It is also revealed that Terumi was one of the Six Heroes, although he states that "the Six Heroes were never buddies." In the Arcade Ending, it is revealed that he was the creator of the Murakumo Units as well as the Black Beast, which according to him was a failed product in his quest to create the "Sword to Slay the Gods", Kusanagi. He also created the Azure Grimoire, and even has his own Grimoire similar to Ragna's. He wants to use Noel (the perfect Murakumo Unit, μ-12) to create Kusanagi to destroy the Sankishin Unit "Amaterasu" out of belief that the world is filled with nothing but lies, and plunge the world into eternal despair.

Hazama's Drive is still unconfirmed, but it uses the Ouroboros into it's full power.

• Λ -No. 11- (Lambda)

Character voice: Kanako Kondou (JP), Cristina Valenzuela (ENG)

An imitation Murakumo Unit created by Kokonoe by combining the body of the 11th experimental replica of Saya with the soul of ν-13, recovered after falling into the Gates of Sheol during the conclusion of Calamity Trigger's Story Mode. Kokonoe completely erased her memory and as a result, Λ-11 is only interested in carrying out Kokonoe's orders, although some fragment of her original self manages to resurface when she confronts Ragna. She was originally mentioned in the opening of Calamity Trigger's Story Mode as a failed experiment, and pallete swap ν-13 in Continuum Shift's character roster. Gameplay wise, she plays like v-13 with some new and altered moves. Her unlimited form is going to be basically Nu.

Λ-11 still retains v-13's Drive, Sword Summoner.

• μ -No. 12- (Mu)

Character voice: Kanako Kondou (JP), Cristina Valenzuela (ENG)

Playable only in the console version as well as the True Final Boss of the game. This is the true form of the perfect Murakumo Unit Noel Vermillion after fusing with the True Azure Grimoire that she possesses. Completely erasing all of her memories only to serve Terumi for one purpose: to destroy the Sankishin Unit "Amaterasu" and erase the world from its existence. She is armed with the giant sword called "Kamigoroshi no Tsurugi Kusanagi" ("Sword to Slay the Gods, Kusanagi") and her hatred for the world has increased substantially, making her aggressive towards everything she fought. She was once revealed in the Arcade Version Ending in a cliffhanger. Gameplay wise, she is like a fusion of Nu and Noel with some altered or new movesets.

μ-12's Drive, Steingunner, uses the power of the Kusanagi and summons floating crystals that attack the opponent with beams.

• Makoto Nanaya

Character voice: Tomomi Isomura (JP), Janice Kawaye (ENG)

Another classmate of Noel's and Jin's from the Military Academy, much like Tsubaki. She is a squirrel-type half beast-man, and is considerably hyperactive with a short attention span. She is outgoing, adventurous, and has inhuman reflexes. She has a few complexes about her race, but nonetheless, acknowledges who she is and is proud of it. She fights using her specially made cross Tonfas. She is set to in appear in the console version of Continuum Shift as Downloadable content, along with Nu-13 and an third unknown character.

Makoto's Drive is named Impact, though it is not yet known what it does.

[edit] Unplayable

• The Black Beast

The legendary beast that threatened to cause much calamity before the current events of the game. It was confronted by the Six Heroes and sealed away. In actuality it is a combination of Ragna and Nu fusing together inside of the Cauldron (i.e Ragna is its body, and Nu was its heart). In Continuum Shift it is revealed that the Black Beast was a failed product of Terumi in an attempt to create Kusanagi, the "Sword to Slay the Gods".

• Kokonoe

Character voice: Chie Matsuura (JP), Julie Ann Taylor (ENG)

Tager's superior at Sector Seven, and also formerly Litchi's employer. She is half beast-man and the daughter of Jubei and Nine, two of the six heroes, though she shows unexplained disdain for this fact, supposedly "staying angry for weeks" when Jubei is mentioned. Kokonoe is a rather serious and cynical woman with no regard for emotions, and always strives for Tager to complete his missions without fail; however, she can on rare occasions be quite personable, mostly around her creations. She's displayed and perceived as cranky most of the time. She has a deep hatred for Terumi, because he killed her mother, Nine, and her aunt. She and Taokaka possess a few similar personality traits, something that most note as 'more in common than they realize', due to their impatient nature and short attention span.

• Linhua

Character voice: Yukiko Kato (JP)

A young girl who is Litchi's assistant.

• Nago & Gii

Two familiars that always accompany Rachel Alucard. Despite their horrible mistreatment from their master, they remain dedicated to her.

Nago

Character voices: Masaru Suzuki (JP), Ezra Weisz (ENG)

Nago is Rachel's black transmogrifying cat that speaks and acts just as snobbishly as her. He is often seen in umbrella form but he could also morph into and be used as either a Lobelia (bat lance) cannon or a comfy chair.

Gii

Character voices: Sena Tsubaki (JP), Kazue Fujita (Drama CD) (JP), Jeannie Elias (ENG)

Gii is Rachel's stout red bat familiar. He is often burdened by Rachel's orders during teatime, or her fits wherein she has the penchant of either using him as a footrest or pinching his cheek. Due to his chubbiness, he is either mistaken for a flying pig or have at least been threatened to be eaten twice in the Story Mode.

• Valkenhayn Hellsing

Character voice: Motomu Kiyokawa (JP), Doug Stone (ENG)

Rachel's elderly butler and trusted adviser who has served the Alucard family line for generations. He possesses a sharp wit and is concerned for Rachel's well-being. Valkenhayn seems to be worried about Rachel associating with things below her class (particularly Ragna, although others might apply), but he always acts in a sophisticated and gentlemanly manner. Judging from comments frequently dropped by Rachel, he seems to have once been a vigilante himself. He seems to know of Terumi well enough to recognize him on sight, even though Terumi can change shape. There are minor hints that he may be connected to the six heroes (he may actually have been one), including an existing friendship with Jubei and enough bravery to attack Terumi on sight.

• Jubei

Character voice: Masaki Terasoma (JP) Kirk Thornton (ENG)

Another one of the six heroes (and Ragna's master), who battled the Black Beast alongside Hakumen, he may have played a part in the Ikaruga civil war. He's a beast-man, and Kokonoe is his daughter. Taokaka and her clan were genetically engineered from his DNA. Despite his appearance (he is considerably short and does not come off as threatening, resembling a cat more than either of his descendants), he is a powerful warrior, with numerous characters referring to him as the most powerful being on the planet. He works to safeguard his friends in their times of need. An interesting fact to note, Jubei is actually the one to finish the enemy in Taokaka's Astral Heat.

• Nine

A witch and one of the Six Heroes, Nine was the one who taught humans to use magic during the Dark War. She is also the mother of Kokonoe. After she discovered what Terumi's plans were, he killed her. This action is why Kokonoe despises him.

• Lord Tenjo

Bang's former sensei and leader of Ikaruga before he was slain by Jin, causing Bang to seek revenge on him. In one of Bang's endings in Story Mode, Valkenhayn mentions that Lord Tenjo's son might still be alive.

• Relius Clover

Character voice: Junichi Suwabe (JP)

Carl's father who created the Saya Replicas, as well as turning his sister Ada into Nirvana. Not much else is known other than that he is also known as the "Puppeteer". Carl wishes to get his revenge on him for the way he made his sister Ada.

• Ada Clover

Carl's sister who Relius turned into Deus Ex Nirvana, thus fueling Carl's desire to get revenge on him. In her current state as Nirvana, Ada acts as Carl's supporter throughout each match of his.

• Saya

Character voice: Kanako Kondou (JP), Cristina Valenzuela (ENG)

The younger sister to both Jin and Ragna, she was bullied by Jin, but babied by Ragna. All information on her is received in flashbacks and memories. She was kidnapped by Terumi and is currently presumed dead, though this is never verified and the location of her body was never disclosed. She is the main source of Jin's jealousy toward Ragna and he is most likely the one who killed her (possibly possessed by Terumi). Λ-11, μ-12 (Noel) and ν-13 are all copies of her, sharing her physical traits and some of her memories. No explanation is ever given toward the reason for her being the basis, although it may stem from Terumi's interest in the three siblings.

• Torakaka

Character voice: Kaori Yagi (JP)

A warrior of the Kaka clan who resembles a bigger sister to Taokaka. In the story, she will meet with Jubei and Valkenhayn.

• Platinum the Trinity

Character voice: Aoi Yuuki (JP)

A young girl with a split-personality. She is the last of the Six Heroes. She is hostile towards Ragna, presumably because he was part of the Black Beast.

• Phantom

A woman who can manipulate magic, and is said to be observing Hazama.
