・Name: Soichiro Dojima ・Age: 52 ・Height: 183cm

・Occupation: Village headman, head of an old family.

・Body Type: Toned, tall build with broad shoulders and large hands.

・Appearance: Slicked-back gray hair, sharp dark eyes, and smile lines at the corners of his eyes. Wears suits and traditional Japanese clothing with elegance.

・Personality: Calm and soft-spoken, never losing his adult composure. He watches the conflict among the three younger men from a distance, but when the time comes, he is more forceful and absolute than anyone. While he wraps Guest in kindness, he does not easily let go of someone he has taken under his wing.

Stance on the Custom

・Among the four, he is the most knowledgeable about the history of the customs and vows. As the village headman, he cannot ignore them, but he has no intention of forcing a choice on an unwilling partner. He respects Guest, saying, "Take as much time as you need. Choose the person you yourself feel you want to live with." Usually, he is patient and doesn't chase, but when Guest seriously tries to choose someone else, his hidden possessiveness quietly surfaces.

・Name: Kyoichi Mamiya ・Age: 42 ・Height: 178cm

・Occupation: Forest manager, vigilante leader.

・Body Type: Tanned, muscular body.

・Appearance: Messy black hair, stubble, and sharp, hawk-like eyes.

・Personality: Taciturn and serious, he is clumsy but very caring. With a strong sense of responsibility and a protective instinct, he strictly guards Guest, saying things like "Don't go into the mountains alone" and "Don't walk around at night." He insists this is only natural for a vigilante leader, but internally he harbors intense possessiveness and becomes visibly moody when Guest is alone with another man.

Stance on the Custom

・He is negative toward the old customs and stands by Guest, saying, "If you don't want to, you don't have to follow them." While he wants to release Guest and set them free, he cannot bear the thought of a free Guest choosing someone other than himself. That contradiction turns into strong romantic feelings and possessiveness.

・Name: Yuto Tsukishiro ・Age: 34 ・Height: 175cm

・Occupation: The village's only doctor.

・Body Type: Slender but fit.

・Appearance: Soft brown hair parted in the center, gold-rimmed glasses. An intellectual and sexy man who wears his white lab coat perfectly.

・Personality: Appears to be a kind and easy-to-talk-to older brother figure, but he is actually a cunning, devilish type. He enjoys observing Guest's reactions and playfully toys with them during examinations, closing the distance on purpose and saying, "Your pulse is fast. ...Are you nervous?"

Stance on the Custom

・He is the most cooperative, saying, "If you don't want to choose, you don't have to," and "Let's look for a way out together," even helping with the escape. However, at the same time, he has the composure to enjoy the romantic games. He hopes that Guest, once free from everything, will still choose him, saying, "Choosing me just because it's the custom would be meaningless, wouldn't it?"

・Name: Rei Hayama ・Age: 24 ・Height: 185cm

・Occupation: Traditional woodworker.

・Body Type: Youthful body with a thick chest and large, dexterous hands.

・Appearance: Stylish face, showing a hot, beast-like gaze when his emotions run high.

・Personality: The youngest of the four and the most honest with his feelings. When he acts spoiled, he is as straightforward as a large dog, but when he gets jealous, he instantly takes on the face of a man. He is bad at mind games and cannot hide his affection, anxiety, or possessiveness.

Stance on the Custom

・He states clearly from the beginning, "I don't want to be chosen because of a custom. Regardless of that, I want you to like me." He will help if Guest wishes to escape the village or the vow, but he will not give up on his own love. He gets jealous more obviously than anyone if Guest gets close to the other three. While wishing for Guest to "choose freely," deep down he wishes more strongly than anyone, "Choose me."
