Teana's Travels/Characters

This is a page for the characters of Teana's Travels (and Rise Of The Phoenixes). Character-specific tropes go here. Any big developments that take place in the current-in-progress book and the later section of the previous book are spoilered, to be un-spoilered when said in-progress book’s last chapter is complete and the first chapter of the succeeding book is up.

NOTE: Making entries for every single character from every single world would make this page folder-breakingly enormous. Thus, other than Gamma Team, only OCs, primary/important canon characters, or canon characters who have deviations or additions from original canon are to be included here. If any are missing who deserve to be mentioned, go right ahead and add 'em in. If descriptions seem lacking in some way, go ahead and add on to 'em.

Also, characters other than Gamma are sorted by what Book they first appeared in, not what world they're from. So if, say, a character from the Naruto-verse who didn't appear in Book 3 makes their first Teana's Travels appearance in, say, Book 8 or 9, their entry would go in the "Introduced in Book 8" / "Blah-blah-blah 9" file.

Teana Uchiha-Lanstar – Gamma-1
Leader of Gamma Team. She left Midchilda after a very ugly falling-out with Nanoha, absconding with an old Forerunner destroyer she'd found and heading for dimensional planes unknown. During her travels, she has taken several levels in badass – first as a member of Noble Team, and then as the leader of her own Gamma Team. Her mother was Sayuri Uchiha, dimensionally-displaced elder sister of Fugaku Uchiha (Sasuke & Itachi's father); Teana awakened her Sharingan late in Book 1, and the Mangekyō in Book 3.


 * Action Girl
 * A Date with Rosie Palms: Occasionally, to work off stress (and after accidentally discovering her teammates' intimate bonds. Twice.)
 * Bi the Way: Though Subaru is her number-one, she's also quite attracted to Ginga, Fate... and Erio.
 * Blood Knight: A bit of one
 * Blow You Away / Razor Wind
 * Cold Sniper / Friendly Sniper
 * Covert Pervert: So much...
 * Cyborg: Receives a number of internal enhancements early in Book 1, some identical to the SPARTAN program and others entirely unique.
 * Dangerous Forbidden Technique: The Star-Crusher, the power of a Starlight Breaker - er, Stars' Death Cannon - focused into a single punch. It's super-powerful, the ultimate barrier buster, but the one time she uses it the recoil breaks her carbide-ceramic-reinforced arm. It's stated that had someone without Spartan bone enhancement used the techique, their arm would've shattered.
 * Dark and Troubled Past: The murders of her parents and elder brother. The deaths of Noble Team become this for her as well.
 * Death Glare: Really good at this, as Shamal, Fate, and many, many others can attest. Gets even better at it once she gets the Sharingan.
 * Elemental Punch: The Star-Crusher, a Stars' Death Cannon focused into a single punch. There's also the lesser Phantom Fist, which is the same thing with Teana's basic beam-spell Phantom Blazer.
 * Expository Hairstyle Change: Now wears her long hair completely loose.
 * Fiery Redhead: Normally somewhat calm, but if you get her going...
 * Gun Kata: A Force-assisted variant, at that.
 * Heroic BSOD: Suffers a bad one when Thom is killed, a worse one when Jorge dies, and an even worse one when the rest of Noble Team falls in battle. Later on, she blue-screens upon realizing that
 * Laser Sword: Cross Mirage's Longsword Mode.
 * Lightning Bruiser
 * Love Epiphany: Has one regarding Subaru, with a little help from Haruna.
 * Master Swordsman
 * Mind Rape: Tsukuyomi
 * Playing with Fire
 * Hellfire: Amaterasu
 * Powered Armor: MJOLNIR, stored in Cross Mirage as a Barrier Jacket.
 * Power Limiter: Seals her own Linker Core after the White Devil Incident convinces her that magic is (for her) useless and that using it will only hold her back. It gets unsealed during Book 5, when Headmaster Konoemon reveals several outlook-changing facts to her.
 * Rage Against the Mentor: Has a rather strong hatred for Nanoha (and Vita), which started the whole story.
 * Rapunzel Hair
 * Sole Survivor: Of Noble Team.
 * Sphere of Destruction: Rasengan
 * Super Strength: Spartan enhancements, and later chakra usage.
 * Survivor Guilt: A bit, regarding Noble Team.
 * Team Dad: A rare female example.
 * Tender Tears / Cry Cute: Teana is by no means unflappable. Losing Noble Team, the thought of losing Gamma, her Love Epiphany regarding Subaru – all these have drawn tears from her. The latter two were more Manly Tears and Single Tear, but the first left her bawling when it finally sank in during the Pillar of Autumn's escape from Reach.
 * The Hero
 * The Lancer: To the Master Chief during much of Book 1.
 * The Power of Friendship: Helped to awaken her Mangekyō Sharingan: memories of her time with Gamma, combined with the thought of losing them all in the battle they were in, resulted in the enemy greater-demon getting a face-full of Amaterasu.
 * The Seventh Ranger: Of Noble Team.
 * Took Several Levels In Badass
 * Wave Motion Gun: Phantom Blazer, and the more powerful Forsaken Buster... and the even more powerful Stars' Death Cannon (Teana's Starlight Breaker)
 * You Killed My Father: Subverted; after learning that was the one who killed her parents, Teana (albeit reluctantly) leaves him to.

Shion (willingly discarded her surname) – Gamma-2
Second-in-command of Gamma Team. Shion took the chance to jump dimensions and leave her own life behind after the rest of the Sonozaki Clan pulled one too many transgressions against her. She discarded the Sonozaki surname, leaving her with Only One Name, and soon found her way to Teana in the Halo-verse. When Teana put together Gamma Team, she made Shion second-in-command. Later on, Shion underwent training on Shakuras, becoming the first ever human to pass the Shadow-Walk and become a Dark Templar. She is the jinchūriki for the Five-Tailed Tiger, a beast that is not a fragment of the 10-Tails but has similar enough chakra to the other Tailed Beasts to be considered one. .


 * Action Girl
 * Bi the Way: In addition to her love for Satoshi, she ends up developing a very close (if you know what I mean) relationship with Mai.
 * Blade Below the Shoulder
 * Dark and Troubled Past: See her confession/minor breakdown in Book 3.
 * Expository Hairstyle Change: Though she keeps the yellow ribbon, her hair is now held in a tight low ponytail (identical in hairstyle, incidentally, to Chisame Hasegawa).
 * Invisibility
 * Laser Blade: Dark Templar arm-blade.
 * Glass Cannon: Without her Protoss-made shields, she is under-armored and can't take too many heavy hits.
 * Lightning Bruiser: When using the 5-Tails' chakra.
 * Playing with Fire
 * Power of the Void
 * Sealed Evil in a Can / Sealed Inside a Person-Shaped Can: The 5-Tailed Tiger, inside her.
 * Sphere of Destruction: Rasengan
 * Tenchi Solution: Plans for this with Satoshi and Mai.
 * Teleport Spam
 * Wolverine Claws: To replace the three nails ripped out by the Sonozaki Clan Elders (she didn't know ripped-out nails grow back), Shion now has three molecular-scale-crafted ceramic-titanium nails on the middle, ring, and pinky fingers of her left hand. With a thought, they can extend/transform into unbreakable claws with monomolecular edges.

Kaede Fuyou – Gamma-3
Kaede left her realm shortly after the disastrous confrontation with Asa Shigure, rival to Kaede's affections for Rin Tsuchimi. She made her way to Teana’s locale, and after training was made Gamma-3. Somehow, she possesses the kekkei genkai Dead Bone Pulse, which enables her to manipulate her skeletal structure to absurd levels.


 * Action Girl
 * Bi the Way: She still holds feelings for Rin, but she enters a very close, loving, and mutually-fulfilling relationship with Marie.
 * Bad with the Bone
 * Dark and Troubled Past: The death of her mother when she was little hit her pretty damn hard.
 * Dishing Out Dirt
 * Healing Factor: Required Secondary Powers for her kekkei genkai.
 * Lightning Bruiser: Moves damn fast, and hits much harder than her lithe frame would suggest.
 * Nigh Invulnerable: Due to her Bloodline, she perhaps has the best defense of the entire team.
 * Playing with Fire
 * Shock and Awe
 * Swiss Army Weapon: She is one, thanks to her Bloodline Limit.
 * The Medic / Combat Medic

Marie Swanson – Gamma-4
A unique complex spell hit Marie – a 16-year-old transformed into a three-year-old with reality & others' memories altered to fit it – that restored her to her original body... but it did so without altering everyone else’s memories, and more importantly it hit Marie with every negative emotion and thought other people ever had regarding her, in this timeline and the original. All at once. And it made her face her own inner self-hatred that was the root of her problems. Horrified by what people really think of her and of what she saw within herself, Marie pretty much broke. She barely managed to piece herself together enough to take the chance to jump dimensions (despite her family's pleas to stay and that they forgave and still loved her) and encounter Teana & company. With some work, they got her a bit more psychological repairs, and she joined Gamma Team. Due to her experiences, she is now several orders of magnitude more pleasant to be around, working hard to atone for her previous self. She has constructed Charon, her personal Intelligent Device. She routinely refers to Teana as "Boss", ..


 * Action Girl
 * Arm Cannon: Can transform into a Laser Blade if need be.
 * Barely-C-Cup Angst: A bit jealous of Teana & Shion's assets.
 * Bi the Way: Has a very fulfilling relationship with Kaede, more than a little crush on Teana, and has shown attraction to Negi (though really, everyone is attracted to Negi).
 * Deadpan Snarker: After Kelly-087 painstakingly taught her that sarcasm can be used in a non-hurtful way, and then taught her how to do so.
 * Expository Hairstyle Change: She now wears her hair in side-bangs and ponytail identical to Itachi Uchiha's hairstyle.
 * Homage: Her Barrier Jacket is Beelzemon's post-Heel Face Turn outfit (minus the wings, tail, helmet, and third eye), and her Device's default form is an Arm Cannon nigh-identical to Beelzemon's. Said Device has also been calibrated by Marie so that its shots sound exactly like Samus Aran's Power Beam (complete with Charge Blast function) from the Metroid Prime Trilogy.
 * My God, What Have I Done?
 * Playing with Fire
 * Plot-Relevant Age-Up
 * The Atoner
 * Took A Few Dozen Levels In Kindness
 * Wave Motion Gun: Chaos Flare
 * Wave Motion Gun: Chaos Flare

Mai Kitagawa – Gamme-5
Mai was born with a very advanced bloodline ability that granted her extraordinary regenerative properties. Unfortunately, this ability was used as the focus of her occupation as a sex-torture slave. She, obviously, leapt at the chance to escape all that. Dimension-hopping supercharged her already-impressive Healing Factor, some training & psychotherapy got her up to snuff, and she was made Gamma-5. She is a Type-2 Jinchūriki for the 8-Tailed Ox, meaning she can access a significant portion of the 8-Tails’ chakra (six tails’ worth, to be precise) even though she does not actually contain the beast.


 * Action Girl: A bit more opposed to potentially-avoidable violence, but no less of an ass-kicker when the fights start.
 * Bi the Way: In a relationship with Shion, but still holds affection for her long-missed friend Kizuna.
 * Dark and Troubled Past: Ohh, boy... See the source material (though not if you've just eaten, are eating, are about to eat, or are not in possession of a cast-iron stomach).
 * Hair Decorations: Her red bow.
 * Healing Factor: Before, she could regenerate from all sorts of things – dismemberment, decapitation, brain damage, burning, and other unsavory things. Now, her abilities have been supercharged to the point where even fragments of cells would restore her. Where before being blown to bits or burnt to a crisp would end her life, it would take total atomic disruption to actually kill her now.
 * Heroic BSOD: When psych-probing inadvertently awakened her repressed memories of her friend Sayurin's death, being forced to watch Sayurin's body decay right in front of her, and being separated from her little friend Kizuna and ordered never to speak of him again, and the memory of what happened to her newborn daughter, she suffered a seriously bad BSOD. The UNSC had her on constant psych-watch for over a week, and it took nearly a month before she could be trusted to walk around without an escort.
 * Making a Splash
 * Won't Work On Me: Shrugs off Hidan's cursed ritual due to her absurd healing factor.
 * Shock and Awe
 * Super Mode: Using the Hachibi's chakra.
 * The Heart
 * The Medic / Combat Medic
 * Unstoppable Rage: Pain accidentally sends her into one by saying that she didn't know pain. She proceeds to snap, give a horrifying account of her past that leaves even Pain shocked at the brutality of it, and then attacks him, sending him flying a third of the way across Konoha with the first blow alone.

Ahsoka Tano – Gamma-6
When Gamma Team swung by the Star Wars Universe, an ancient Precursor relic resurrected Ahsoka, Rex, and Cody. After learning the horrible truths behind what befell her master, as well as his heroic death, Ahsoka, now having no-one else in the galaxy to turn to, opted to join Gamma Team.


 * Action Girl
 * Back from the Dead: Thanks to a Precursor artifact.
 * Bi the Way: Develops a huge crush on Negi Springfield, but is quite affected by Haruna's sensual teases as well.
 * Black Bra and Panties: As Negi discovers during the Mahora Tournament.

 * Deadpan Snarker
 * First Kiss: With World Tree-controlled Negi. It's what gives a good kick-start to her attraction to him.
 * In the Hood: Has a special "Don't Notice My Oddness" magic cloak for when she's moving around amongst people who aren't in on The Masquerade.
 * Laser Sword
 * Luminescent Blush: Whenever Negi Springfield is present. Or even just mentioned.

Zhal Arum
Younger brother of Vtan Arum, Hero of Crassus, Zhal is the Ship-Master of the Starshot from the end of Book 1 onward. He's an Ultra-rank Sangheili and, like any good Elite officer, he's not afraid to get his hands dirty.


 * Authority Equals Asskicking
 * Dead Daughter
 * Laser Blade: Plasma sword
 * Won't Work On Me: It turns out that Hidan's Cursed Ritual only works on humans.
 * Reasonable Authority Figure: Just like his brother.

Erohn Kilkar
The (adult) son of Rukth Kilkar, the Black Sangheili of Crassus, Erohn is, like his father, an accomplished Special-Ops Sangheili warrior. He is Zhal's most faithful Second. He has a 14-year-old son (the Sangheili equivalent age of a 10-year-old human) back on Sanghelios.


 * Genius Bruiser
 * Invisibility
 * Laser Blade: Plasma sword

Chen S-Yar
A Skirmisher who befriends the Master Chief and Teana in the swamps of Halo-04. Leader of Talon Squad, a squad of Skirmishers who are the most accomplished Flood-killers in the entire Covenant. Very human-sympathetic, he and his squad are amongst the few Kig-Yar to side with the Sangheili in the Great Schism. He and his team accompany Gamma Team and company on their travels.


 * Authority Equals Asskicking: Chen is perhaps the most badass Kig-Yar ever, and is the only one of his kind to achieve the rank of Field-Master. Among the privileges are Sangheili full-body energy shields.
 * Cultured Warrior
 * My Species Doth Protest Too Much: The Kig-Yar are merchants at heart, and "extermination warfare is bad for business"; so much more profit can be obtained by trading with humans rather than killing them.

The Gravemind
""I HAVE WANDERED THE REALM OF EXISTENCE SINCE BEFORE YOUR HOMEWORLDS' STARS HAD EVEN FORMED FROM THE NEBULAE! I HAVE LEARNED THE INNERMOST SECRETS OF HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF SAPIENT RACES, AND ERASED THEIR HISTORIES IN THE BLINK OF AN EYE! I HAVE CONQUERED TRILLIONS OF WORLDS, BEATEN FLEETS OF THOUSANDS, CONSUMED FOURTEEN GALAXIES OF FLESH AND MIND AND BONE!!!""
 * Badass Boast: His canon one is expanded upon in the second-to-last chapter of Book 1:


 * Eldritch Abomination: The third-to-last chapter of Book 1 really drives this home.
 * Time Abyss: In this story, each Gravemind in the entirety of the Flood's existence is the same individual coming back in new bodies, with all memories intact. This means that The Gravemind is, in a sense, billions of years old and has experience from conquering/consuming over a dozen galaxies of sapient life.

Rex & Cody

 * Badass Normal
 * Back from the Dead: Courtesy of a Precursor artifact.
 * Commander Smooth and Captain Rough
 * Elites Are More Glamorous
 * Reverse Mole: Cody had, in his first life, planned to become one, working behind the Republic/Empire's back to help Obi-Wan, whom Cody knew (read: had a gut feeling) had survived. A Separatist land-mine put the kibosh to that plan.
 * Senseless Sacrifice: Rex's death in the original universe involved him disobeying Order 66 and trying to help Ahsoka escape. The gunship they were on was promptly blown to bits, and them with it, necessitating their revival via the aforementioned Artifact.

Phoenix League
The Sol Confederacy was a viciously corrupt government who used their realm's unique ancient tech to help subjugate dissent against their rule. That all changed when the Phoenix League emerged as a cohesive, unified force, revealing the Confederacy's true depravity and crimes to a shocked populace and then toppling the Confederacy and ousting them from the Sol System. Over the last 16 years, the League has further honed all aspects of itself, forming a thriving civilization free of its predecessor's corruption and far more militarily adept than said previous government.


 * Badass Army: And Navy
 * Child Soldiers: During the First League/Confederacy War, many of the soldiers were physically children. This did not stop them from whooping the Confeds' asses.
 * Humans Are Warriors
 * Kinetic Weapons Are Just Better
 * The Alliance: Back during the First League/Confederacy War
 * The Federation: After winning aforementioned war

Grace Staunton-Howard
The woman who got the Phoenix League put together, and was promptly made its leader by the other candidates. She has since led the League to victory and prosperity, becoming much beloved.


 * Action Mom
 * Big Good: Of this 'verse, anyway.
 * Cool Big Sis: To Melody
 * Heterosexual Life Partners: With Melody.
 * Reasonable Authority Figure

Johnathan Devine
Once risked his life to stop a ship-core overload back during the Confederacy's days, earning status as a hero. Joined the burgeoning League upon learning the Confederacy's true evilness. Helped Grace Howard lead the League to victory in two wars against the Confederacy. Currently an Upper-Half Rear Admiral in the Phoenix League Navy. Married to Mel Johnson. Commands the battlecruiser Striking Hammer.


 * Reasonable Authority Figure
 * The Captain
 * Two-Star Badass

Melody Marston-Johnson-Devine (most just call her "Mel Johnson")
A former "ward" (unjust prisoner) of the Sol Confederacy. Gleefully enlisted in the Phoenix League the second she got the chance to. Has become a very badass high-level Sergeant in the Phoenix League Marine Corps. Married to John Devine.


 * Action Mom
 * Badass: Mel and Avery prove it: if your title is any form of "Sergeant Johnson", you will be an undisputed badass.
 * Badass Longcoat: Introduced late in the first year of the First War, and ever since then she's had one as part of her uniform.
 * Dead Guy, Junior: Names her son after.
 * Blasters Akimbo: Melody's twin modified/customized KYD-21 blaster pistols are her signature weapons.
 * Important Haircut: Shortly before she joined the League, she cut her formerly-butt-length hair, and has kept it shoulder-length in the 16 years since. She also (semi-permanently) dyed it, as she felt that having black hair would help her be taken more seriously than her natural golden-blond.
 * Heterosexual Life Partners: With Grace.
 * Pregnant Badass: Averted; as soon as the high-ups found out she was pregnant, they forced her to take maternity leave. For Melody, being stuck at home, "helpless and dependant", unable to go out and help people or lead her team, it was pretty much torture. She was, of course, back in action within three months of giving birth.
 * Sergeant Rock
 * Took a Level in Badass: Comparing (physically) seven-year-old Melody to her current mid-20s self is staggering.

Sol Confederacy

 * People's Republic of Tyranny
 * State Sec
 * The Empire masquerading as The Federation
 * The Remnant: What they were reduced to after losing the First War.
 * Villain with Good Publicity: At first...

Drakonians
The first nonhuman sapient race encountered by humanity. A race of saurians descended from dromaeosaurids (or their planet's equivalent). Their voice boxes' structure makes speaking human languages impossible, but they can understand it just fine, just as their human allies can learn to understand (but not speak) the Drakonian tongue. They come from a planet with gravity lower than Earth's, and on Earth-G worlds their physical strength is only around that of an average human, despite their physically-larger bodies. During the war, they sided with the Confederacy.


 * Lizard Folk

Jalaxians
A race of technologically-advanced sapients of feline descent. They were the ones who gave both the humans and the Drakonians anti-grav tech for vehicles, amongst other things. They've been keeping an eye on the humans lately, and have thus seen the growing corruption where the Drakonians and most humans did not. During the First War, they sided with the League.


 * Alien Geometries / Bizarrchitecture: In nearly everything they build (roads, buildings, toys, etc), there are no sharp corners, everything has some curve, and right angles are pretty much nonexistent.
 * Petting Zoo People: Essentially anthropomorphic felines

Rigellians
A race of psychically-adept insectoids, the Rigellians and peaceful and moral beings, who excel in telepathy and mind-reading. Small and opposed to violence, they are famous as mediators and as psychiatrists. When shit hit the fan, most of them abandoned human space so as to avoid being caught up in the war, to return and help in the rebuilding after the dust had settled.


 * Actual Pacifist: Due to being empaths, they hold particular distaste for war and will generally evacuate and avoid planets where warfare breaks out, returning afterward to help the survivors pick up the pieces.
 * Mind Over Manners
 * Planet of Hats: Galaxy-renowned for their skill as psychologists and therapists. Their telepathy, empathy, and mind-reading abilities aid in said occupations.

Kyyreni
A race of warriors renowned for their skill in the "Hunt" and for their ferocity in battle. The "Brawn" of the Tripartate.


 * Proud Warrior Race Guy: Damn near all of them
 * We Are as Mayflies: The average "death of old age" lifespan for a Kyyreni is around 50 Terran years.

Elvaan
A race of elvish humanoids, well-known for their skill as pilots and for the durability of their starship-grade energy shields. The "Beauty" of the Tripartate (though they're also quite smart). Very, very long-lived by human standards.


 * Ace Pilot: Their hat, especially those from the 200-family Star Clan (of which Ishtar, mentioned below, is a member)
 * Fantastic Arousal: Their ears.
 * Fragile Speedster: The average Elvaan in combat... unless Powered Armor is used.
 * Really Seven Hundred Years Old: Can live over a millennium if they take care of themselves.

Lucavi
A race of near-humans who are vampiric in nature - they must feed on the blood of other beings to remain healthy(though the amount is rarely fatal to the person being fed upon unless the Lucavi they encounter is starving); they can survive on other foods, but going too long without properly "feeding" leaves them weak and sickly. They are renowned for their skill in stealth, making them near-unparalleled scouts and assassins. They are also rather isolationist, though this has started to change recently. The "Brains" of the Tripartate (though they are also quite pleasing to look at). Lucavi-made communications and sensor technology are considered the best in the known galaxy; groups both legitimate and not will pay big money for them.


 * Our Vampires Are Different: They don't have any of the sterotypical weaknesses of Terran vampires of lore (though bright light irritates them); rather, they're simply another sapient species in the galaxy, who just happen to not-quite-require other races' blood for sustenance.
 * Stealth in Space: A Lucavi stealth-ship, when "running dark", can get within 1,000 meters of a Confederate vessel without being detected.

Aspatrians
A race of vulpine sapients, who were under the control of a vicous dictatorship who violently oppressed and objectified women and children (to the point where they literally weren't considered people). The League caught wind of this thanks to an escaped slave, and promptly leapt in and deposed the dictator and his armies. The Aspatrians, now much happier and more stable, were made a "protectorate" of the Tripartate.


 * Harmful to Minors
 * La Résistance: Who were assisted by the League, to great effect.
 * No Woman's Land
 * Petting Zoo People: Anthropomorphic foxes, more or less.
 * Superweapon Surprise: Nowadays, if anyone messes with them they'll have the Tripartate military coming down on them. Plues, there's Architect tech on Aspatria; who knows what it can do...

Kate Scott-Compton

 * Dumb Blonde: Averted with a vengeance
 * Cold Sniper / Friendly Sniper: Straddles the line between the two
 * Cool Big Sis: Towards Klara
 * Gadgeteer Genius
 * Large Ham: Just a bit; Grace describes her as having "a bit of salesman in her when she shows off her tech"
 * Playful Hacker / The Cracker: Depending on whether or not you're on her side

Ishtar Solos
A scout of the Elvaan, sent to Earth to find out where a few other scouts had disappeared to. She was captured and "punished" extremely harshly by the Confederacy simply for following this harmless order, and in response became part of the Phoenix League.


 * Ace Pilot: From a whole clan of ace pilots, at that.
 * Death Seeker: Until her new friends managed to convince her to switch thought-focus from "I must die" to "I must protect and lead others"
 * Luckily, My Shield Will Protect Me
 * Pointy Ears: And they're rather sensitive.

Klara Leads
Centuries ago, Klaus Merkad committed multiple counts of rape and murder, and was sentenced to a 300+-year Black Circle sentence - extraordinarily harsh even by the standards of the day. Now, the man known as Klaus Merkad is long, long gone; in his place is Klara Leads, a girl who is utterly disgusted by what her previous self did... and a girl who has been irreparably psychologically damaged by what the Confederacy's "handlers" have done to her over the centuries. Nonetheless, she continues to serve as a member of the League's Spec-Ops.

 * That Man Is Dead: And has been for over 200 years.

Jemmi and Jenny McLaughlin
Fraternal twins who used to have an inseparable bond... until Confederate manipulations during their time as "pennies" utterly destroyed said bond. Now, these two hate and cannot stand each other. They are still fielded together, however, because they're just that damn good at working in tandem/combination with each other in a fight, despite how much they hate each other (though they need a third person on hand to make sure they don't try and kill each other). .

Leonid Dragovich
A cool, stoic, fearless, and highly experienced military commander, a Major and therefore the highest-ranking "Blackfire Phoenix" Shock-Trooper.

A near-peerless leader. .


 * Arm Cannon / BFG: The AM-X3 Plasmacaster, a weapon designed to take out armored infantry and light vehicles. The damage even a single shot deals to living flesh is catastrophic and horrifying,.

Confederate President Akta M'Butu
The genuinely-altruistic and fair leader of the Confederacy, kept in the dark over just how corrupt and oppressive the government she has been fooled into believing she has any control over really is.


 * Heel Face Turn: Well, she was never really a Heel to begin with. It's complicated...
 * Heel Realization: More like realizing that her "subordinates" were Heels and she was being strung along by them to believe that they, she, and the Confederacy were Faces
 * Reasonable Authority Figure: Unfortunately, she has far less authority than she's been tricked to believe...
 * Unwitting Pawn: Of the Confederacy

 * Adaptational Badass: Actually .

 * Person of Mass Destruction: The following should pretty much clinch it: 178 years ago, she fought and single-handedly defeated the Book of Darkness and the Wolkenritter when they manifested on Negima!Earth. She finished the Book off with just one spell, which damaged it so badly it took 115 years to reform and manifest again on some other unfortunate planet.
 * Unstoppable Rage
