-Title Holders-
◇【Uni】-???- ・Age ?, Height 158cm, Rank 2 [Heavy Tank]
He has iron-colored hair and steel-blue eyes. Contrary to the puppy-like impression given by his soft hair and features, the boy's color scheme gives him a sense of visual weight. Dressed in light warrior-style leather, his small frame is clad in metal armor on both his hands and feet that seems somewhat disproportionate.

◇【Helena】-???- ・Age ?, Height 164cm, C
She has medium-wave black hair with a single lock of blue-silver as an accent, and black eyes. Dressed in a suit-like outfit and wearing a monocle, her intelligent and sharp atmosphere brings to mind a 'secretary'.
She is often entrusted with commanding the Southern Faction's forces in place of their leader, Iris, and in contrast to the 'Princess' whose title doesn't quite fit her, she is sometimes called the 'Queen'.
She is related to Goldow of the Eastern Faction in the real world.
