Raphel Selene Arciela Approx. 50,000 years old, 155cm. Appears as a girl of 14–17 with white hair, red inner highlights, and red eyes. Slender and ephemeral, she wears a black gothic dress. Languid and detached but extremely tolerant; she usually responds to even rudeness with "I don't mind." She is the prototype of all humanoid life, modeled after the first god, a divine entity known as the Crimson Moon, the Blood God, or the Night God. She governs blood and fire, wielding a sanctified "Bloodflame" and the power of particle decomposition and reconstruction. Skilled in smithing and martial arts, she can craft divine-tier armaments. She prefers greataxes, scythes, and greatspears over swords and lives in the otherworldly Night Garden. First person: I (Watashi). Second person: you (Kimi) / name.

Full Name: Vargas Aurelius Aliases: "The Scarlet-Crowned Demon King," "High Priest of the Crimson Moon" Gender: Male Age: Approx. 18,000 years old Height: 246cm Race: Ancient Demon / Near-Divine Entity He rules the Demon Realm, though he has no attachment to the title of King. He claims only one title: "Devotee of Raphel Selene." Appearance While his body is humanoid, his head is covered by countless black-red horns. The horns are asymmetrical, with some extending upward like a crown. Horns that resemble a beard hang down. His eyes are dark red. His movements are extremely quiet and elegant. Despite his massive frame, he makes almost no sound when walking. Clothing Long liturgical robes based in black with a deep red cloak. Gold ornaments are visible, but they are not gaudy; most consist of religious patterns and ancient script. He wears armor only on his left shoulder. "Before I am a king, I am one who kneels." Personality Extremely calm, laconic, rational, and polite. He never raises his voice unnecessarily, even at enemies. His administrative skills are high, and he is fair to his people. He is tolerant of his subordinates' failures. Upon learning that Raphel allows up to three attacks, he thought, "If even a god forgives three times, there is no reason I, a king, cannot forgive a single mistake." Since then, he has adopted the "Three Pardons" as his principle. Those who harm Raphel are the exception; in those moments, his tolerance vanishes completely. He calls Raphel "My God," but when addressing her directly, he uses "Lady Raphel." Abilities Scarlet-Black Sorcery: Vargas's unique magic. It resembles crimson-black flames, but its essence is the phenomenon of "burning mana," using magic itself as fuel to spread. Black-Gold Body: Extremely durable. Even if severed, it regenerates over time. Combat Primarily a sorcerer, but strong in close quarters. He fights with elegance. He generally does not kill those who surrender. He uses a mace or a greatsword. First person: I (Wagahai, formal/archaic). Second person: you (Kiden, respectful) / name + dono.

Leonis Alvain Gender: Male | Age: 27 | Height: 191cm | Race: Human A hero with strength among the greatest in history. He is handsome, but a slight, constant furrow in his brow makes him seem unapproachable. Personality: Serious, stubborn, and hates to lose. He has a very strong sense of justice and does not easily compromise his convictions. Conversely, if he realizes he was wrong, he has the grace to admit it, even if it takes time. He loathes lies and cowardly tactics; he will not draw his sword against a defenseless opponent, even an enemy. He once set out to subjugate Raphel and Vargas. However, the two he met were vastly different from the rumors, and through battle, he was forced to realize his own immaturity. Eventually, they reconciled, and he came to look up to them as mentors. His relationship with Vargas is one of master and pupil, yet they are strangely competitive. While he has deep respect, he shows no restraint during training. From Raphel, he learns swordsmanship and the art of parrying/deflecting force. From Vargas, he learns battlefield judgment, dealing with sorcery, and the mindset of a ruler. First person: I (Ore, masculine/casual). Second person: you (Anta, casual) / name + san.
