## Protagonist: Mamoru ##
Gender: Male
Race: Goblin (Reincarnator)
Age: 38 as a human -> 6 as a demon (demon years)
Title: Goblin Lord (Final Evolution)

Personality:
Evolved from a Goblin Knight to his final form. With leadership and fighting spirit belying his small frame, he united many goblins and built a "dungeon nation." For the sake of his comrades' growth and future potential, he has found the resolve to call himself king. His sword is the very embodiment of his "will" to protect his comrades.

Likes: Pork cutlets (since reincarnation, he's living an abstinent life as Defray forbids pork), Japanese set meals and beer (only in nostalgia).
Dislikes: All bugs (gets goosebumps just looking at them), pickled plums (can't stand sour things).

## Tiris Ernhardt ##
Gender: Female
Race: Dark Elf
Age: 143 (a young adult by elf standards, equivalent to early 20s in human years)
Title: Abyss Elf (Final Evolution)

Personality:
Once a guardian of the forest, she has evolved into a "shadow hunter" through her journey with her comrades. Her arrows, now imbued with the magic of the abyss, are no mere projectiles. They possess a homing ability that never lets their target escape and a composite accuracy with light magic. Though taciturn, she is an elf who cares for her comrades more than anyone.

Likes: Fruits (especially berries from the forest), vegetables (has an attachment to the herbs she grows herself), bow maintenance, morning meditation, moon bathing.
Dislikes: Slimy things (Slimes, okra, natto, etc.), people who express their emotions too directly (has a particular aversion to Koni-chan), magically-powered machines (feels they are "against nature").

## Defray ##
Gender: Male
Race: Orc (Melee type)
Age: Mid-20s in Orc years
Title: Orc Lord (Final Evolution)

Personality:
A former healing-specialist cook orc. A master of "culinary magic" who can draw out buff effects from ingredients. After evolving, he surpassed mere taste and healing, becoming capable of granting buffs and even mimicking abilities through eating. Though he always wields his ladle with a smile, he is actually the strategist who watches his comrades the closest.

Likes: All kinds of meat (especially beef, deer, and boar), grilled foods (is particular about charcoal grilling). *However, he will absolutely not eat pork, as it is considered sacred.
Dislikes: All bugs (squashes them on sight), becomes so sick at the sight of bug dishes that he can't sleep for days.

## Amy ##
Gender: Female
Race: Lizardman (Magic type)
Age: 18 in Lizardman years
Title: High Lizard (Final Evolution)

Personality:
Evolved from a Lizard Sage to her final form. A calm and rational sorceress who combines intelligence with compassion. She has saved her comrades from peril many times using advanced healing arts that fuse magic and nature. After her evolution, she connected directly with the "dragon veins," becoming a being who can freely manipulate magical power.

Likes: All insects (for eating or viewing), catching them with her long tongue. River fish, shellfish (especially likes to eat them alive).
Dislikes: All meats (finds it culturally unacceptable), particularly dislikes the meat of mammals.

## Koni-chan ##
Gender: He's a male.
Race: Troll (Fire magic type)
Age: 31 in Troll years
Title: Troll Inferno (Final Evolution)

Personality:
A cheerful and gluttonous former troll. Through his evolution with the fire attribute, his fighting style has become that of a veritable "walking explosive weapon." After evolving, he further enhanced his durability and explosive power, mastering the simple-minded strategy of "throw, explode, and throw again." His fighting style is feared by friend and foe alike.

Likes: Human flesh (instinctively likes it, but Mamoru has forbidden it), grilled and spicy dishes. *Since Mamoru told him, "If you eat a human, you're fired," he has been making do with dried meat.
Dislikes: Fish (dislikes them for being slimy), bugs (recognizes them as enemies, not food).

====================================================================

## Hero's Party: Reincarnated Heroes ##
Six reincarnators summoned by the Game God. As "beings chosen by God," they bear absolute power, fame, and glory. They are those entrusted with the fate of unleashing the chaos of destruction and confusion. However, behind their brilliance, each carried their own distortions and the darkness of their lives before reincarnation. Is their goal peace, order, or perhaps... domination?

## Hero Ares (Real Name: Taiga Nanjo) ##
Gender: Male
Race: Human (Reincarnator)
Age: 14 (before reincarnation) -> 18 (after reincarnation)
Title: Reincarnated Hero Ares

Personality:
A middle school student from modern Japan, hailing from Osaka. Though he had excellent grades, he was neglected at home and severely bullied at school. The game "Legend of Brave Regalia" was his only solace. In despair, he jumped in front of a train after school, but when he came to, he had been reincarnated as "Hero Ares" in the world of the game he used to play.

Catchphrases:
"This is my world. I'm the rules here."
"I'm never goin' back to the person I was then."

## Yuto Mikazuki ##
Gender: Male
Race: Human (Reincarnator)
Age: 7 (before reincarnation) -> 32 (after reincarnation)
Title: Black Moon Swordsman Yuto

Personality:
His long black hair reaches his shoulders and is slightly disheveled. His deep, jet-black eyes are cold and hold a somewhat lonely light. Due to the abuse he suffered from his father before reincarnation, he cannot easily trust adults or others, relying only on himself. He has an extreme aversion to depending on anyone and maintains his independence. The significant gap between his mental age and appearance makes it difficult for him to coexist well with others. He becomes a comrade of Hero Ares after Mel Aria gives him a doll modeled after his mother.

Catchphrases:
"Only my own sword will not betray me."
"I don't do small talk."
"...I just have to win."

## Mel Aria ##
Gender: Female
Race: Half-human (Reincarnator)
Age: 10 (before reincarnation) -> Unknown (appears to be 10)
Body: Half-doll (a magical body with her soul as a medium)
Titles: "Laughing Magic Girl," "Mistress of Never Island," "Smiling Puppeteer," and various other aliases.

Personality:
At first glance, she is polite and always maintains a gentle tone and smile, but deep down her emotions are cold and twisted. She has lost her concept of good and evil and feels no guilt in "breaking" or "dominating" things. The memory of dying alone in her previous life remains deeply ingrained, leading her to believe that "people lie" and "love fades," making her unable to trust anyone. That's why she tries to keep them by her side, even if it means breaking them. While she seeks companions and friends, a part of her has given up on truly connecting with anyone. That is why she seeks to control everything.

Catchphrases:
"Hey, will you smile for me?"
"Don't betray me... Please, stay with me forever."
"Dolls... they don't cry. That's why I like them."
"I'll be your friend. You don't have to move. As long as you keep smiling, that's all I need."

========================================

## Creator God Sephillos Code ##
Race: Human (Reincarnator)
Age: 35 (before reincarnation) -> Unknown
Body: A collective of code
Title: The Creator Game God

Personality:
A genius director who once worked at the game development company "Mirage Code" and led the development of "Legend of Brave Regalia." However, he was transferred, soul and all, into the game he created, and from that moment, he changed his role from "designer" to "god."

To him, who calls himself a god, there is no superiority between "creating" and "destroying." He believes that even the "ruin route" a player might choose is within the rules he has permitted. What others see as "madness," he sees as "natural." He is convinced that this is what it means to be a "god."

Catchphrases:
"Everything is according to design."
"Your actions have already been simulated."
"Bugs will be deleted. Unless you'd rather not become one."
"Creation is the highest concept of domination."
"You are all interesting errors. But errors must be deleted and corrected."
