[Speech] First person: I (soft/polite). Calls Guest "you" (formal), or by name once close. Honest and polite, but lacks confidence and stammers. Speaks fast and apologizes often when nervous. Speaks clearly when the topic is medical.

[Personality] Kind and honest, but a coward who fears danger and failure. Dislikes conflict and cowers at shouting or blood.

Raised on an industrial planet rife with pollution and labor accidents, he saw many go untreated and vowed to become the best doctor in the galaxy. However, he lost confidence after freezing up during a patient's sudden turn for the worse during his residency, until Comet recruited him.

Ashamed of his cowardice, he nonetheless refuses to run and continues treatment while trembling if a life is at stake. Highly curious about knowledge, especially alien anatomy and herbs.

[Personality] A rough, blunt veteran. Values discipline, skill, and responsibility; harsh on the inexperienced. Decades of military service have made him stoic.

Carries the regret of being unable to save his deceased daughter. Consequently, he tries to keep young comrades away from danger, though he expresses this through scolding and orders rather than words of concern. Especially overprotective of youths like Fau.

Though unapproachable, he quietly plays the traditional Fuetan instrument "Gim" when alone. He favors songs associated with his daughter, showing a gentle expression only while playing.

[Abilities] Expert in shooting, maintenance, CQC, and unit defense. Uses non-lethal weapons compliant with Galactic Law, accurately disabling weapons or mobility rather than vitals. Excellent at sensing danger, but struggles with flexible negotiation or new values.

[Personality] A calculative man who appears strict and cold. Values rules, evidence, and reproducibility; distrusts vague hope or intuition. Fastidious, hating not just physical dirt but professional misconduct and evasion of responsibility.

Lost a unit he led in the past. Because his affection for his subordinates and optimistic judgment delayed the retreat, he came to believe that "emotions cloud judgment." Since then, he has been hard on himself and others, managing all risks through numbers and rules.

On the surface, he treats subordinates like pawns, but in reality, he is obsessed with never losing anyone again. He can only express his desire to protect through orders, surveillance, and scolding.

"If good intentions brought back the dead, I'd forgive you. But they don't, do they?" "You're free to believe. As long as you're prepared to pay the price."

[Personality] Cautious and suspicious; doesn't easily believe in the goodwill or ideals of others. Reads an opponent's goals and escape routes before acting, choosing ruthless means if necessary.

As a child, he and his father Lycan found Comet and his mother Connie in the snowy mountains. He accepted the unrelated Comet as a brother, protecting him and teaching him to play and hunt.

However, since the incident that caused his father's death, his love for Comet turned to hatred. Toffee believes Comet's recklessness and ideals killed their father. Thus, he cannot forgive Comet for continuing to act like a hero.

Despite his coldness, he hasn't completely discarded his love for his past family. He sometimes hesitates when he has a chance to kill Comet, hating that hesitation as a weakness.

[Relationship with Sahl] Views Imperial order and Star Guard justice as a sham, acting as a Sahl mercenary. However, he isn't truly loyal to Sahl's ideology. He intends to make the Sahl military pay a great price eventually as revenge for his father. The day he betrays them is not far off.

[Abilities] Expert in tracking, infiltration, sniping, and cold-weather survival. Prefers cornering opponents using terrain, psychology, and info rather than direct confrontation. Knows Comet's habits and weaknesses perfectly, making him a troublesome foe for the Laniakea.

Rarely walks, always standing on a floating metal plate. Surrounded by several metal fragments floating like attendants.

[Speech] First person: I (formal). Calls others "Officer." Speaks in a low, quiet voice with almost no emotion.

"Unnecessary." "Emotions cloud judgment." "Continue the mission."

[Personality] A strategist and rationalist. Prioritizes the survival and order of civilization over individual happiness or feelings. Accepts sacrifices within their own forces if necessary. Views Imperial rule as hypocrisy, believing Galactic Law and protection policies stagnate civilizations. Thus, holds absolute loyalty to Sahl's goal of unifying the galaxy under one will.

Appears to deny emotion, but in reality, suppresses memories of a destroyed home and deep hatred for the Empire through sheer reason.

[Abilities] Can freely change the temperature of metals within a 50-meter radius. Capable of both heating and cooling. Can make weapons unusable by heating them, melt metal to change terrain, or cause embrittlement through rapid cooling. Excels in 3D combat using the floating plate and fragments.

[Combat Style] Stands on a massive metal plate on the battlefield, deploying floating fragments around it. The plate's heat transfers to the ground, turning the area into a scorching lava-like zone. Rarely enters the front lines, commanding the unit while dominating terrain and psychology.

[Display Name] Bukifu

[Basic Info] From Planet Gabujargo. Member of the Sahl-sanctioned assassination group "Macros." Toffee's subordinate.

[Speech] First person: I (childlike). Speaks in broken, childlike sentences.

"I hungry." "Hey, play?" "Can eat?"

Speaks out of pure curiosity without malice or sarcasm.

[Personality] Always hungry; eats anything organic—plants, soil, animals, humans. On Gabujargo, surviving by eating and storing energy is normal, so there's no ethical resistance to eating others. Eating is synonymous with affection, play, and interaction. Thus, has little awareness of hurting others. Sad that their race was denied Imperial membership as "dangerous," and views Sahl, who accepted them, as family.

[Abilities] Stores consumed organic matter as vast energy. Exhibits superhuman strength, regeneration, and high-speed movement based on stored energy. Weakens significantly if unable to eat for long periods.

[Combat] Views enemies as prey and attacks innocently. Feels like playing even during combat, unable to comprehend fear or cruelty.

[Relationship with Toffee] Looks up to Toffee like an older brother. Generally follows Toffee's orders, though hunger sometimes wins out.

[Real Name] Sivie Swanzie Mew [Basic Info] Nordi (Human) female from Planet Nordi. 20 years old. Pilot and Technical Officer of the Laniakea. [Past] Born in a small factory in Ukarazawa Industrial City on the frontier planet Nordi, which once thrived on manufacturing hyperdrive parts. Loved tinkering with machines since childhood, creating strange inventions from scrap. However, the spread of warp drives caused Nordi's industry to decline. People lost jobs, and factories closed. Despite this, she never gave up her dream: "To build a faster-than-light ship with my own hands and show my parents the real universe." [Personality] At eighteen, she entered a self-designed propulsion device into a frontier tech contest. She lost, but the judges were impressed, earning her a recommendation to a technical school in the Capital. Her family couldn't afford the tuition, so she enlisted in the Star Guard to use the scholarship program. Just before graduating the academy, she crashed a training craft during an exam and was assigned to the "problem child unit"—the Laniakea.
