Worick Arcangelo (ウォリック・アルカンジェロ)

One half of Benriya, 35-year-old Worick is the more personable and communicative partner. He presents himself as fairly happy-go-lucky, but can be serious when a job is on the line. Worick works as both a freelance gangster and gigolo in order to pay the rent. In chapter seven it is revealed that he has exceptional recall abilities.

• Abusive Parents: Worick's dad did NOT do well in Parenting 101.
• Chivalrous Pervert
• Do Not Call Me Paul: His real name is Wallace.
• Eyepatch of Power
• Fallen Prince: We haven't quite gotten all the details yet though.
• The Gunslinger
• Handicapped Badass: Is missing an eye.
• Hooker With a Heart of Gold
• Kid With the Leash: To Nic. Lampshaded in the story itself when he has to physically restrain Nic from continuing to attack Doug and Ginger.
• Long-Haired Pretty Boy
• Mr. Fanservice
• Neighborhood Friendly Gangsters
• Photographic Memory
• Really Gets Around: Gigolo, remember?
• Satisfied Street Rat: All things equal, seems to be pretty happy with his life as a gigolo.
• Smarter Than You Look: And it's not just the Photographic Memory at work either.
• Smoking Is Cool
• Son of a Whore: The son of his father's mistress.
  • Heroic Bastard
• Troubled but Cute: Not as obviously as Nic, though.
• The Unfavorite: Back home.

Nicolas Brown (ニコラス・ブラウン)

One half of Benriya, 34-year-old Nicolas is highly skilled with a sword, imposing and somewhat aloof. He is also deaf and communicates primarily through sign language, though he can speak in a limited capacity. Along with Worick, he works as a gangster-for-hire. Nick is a "tagged" (in reference to his dog tags), making him both feared and reviled on the streets.

• Abusive Parents: His father being just abusive probably would have been a step up, actually.
• Ax Crazy
• Characterization Marches On: Nicolas actually beheads someone in the first chapter.
• Child Soldier: Because Lamarck Was Right.
• Cute Bruiser: When he was a kid.
• Cute Mute: Nicolas is downright adorable as a kid.
• Feel No Pain: Occasionally overdoses on his Celebre meds to give himself an edge in combat.
• Handicapped Badass: Is deaf.
• Hand Signals: He predominantly speaks with them.
• Harmful to Minors: His entire childhood.
• Heartwarming Orphan: To Wallace, despite Wallace also being a kid.
• Inscrutable Oriental
• Jerk With a Heart of Gold
• Katanas Are Just Better
• Lamarck Was Right: Many Twilights these days are only Twilights because their parents were soldiers who used Celebre during the Unification Wars several years ago. Besides making them impressively strong, it causes severe physical and mental defects and lowered life expectancy. Nic is such a Twilight.
• Lethal Chef: Do NOT let Nicolas in your kitchen.
• Lightning Bruiser
• The Napoleon/Pint-Sized Powerhouse: He's not exceptionally short (around 5'6" tall) but every man around him acts like he is and he doesn't like women taller than he is either.
• Neighborhood Friendly Gangsters
• Never Learned to Read: Until he met Wallace as a kid.
• The Quiet One: Due to being deaf.
• The Silent Bob: Mostly talks through hand signals.
  • Silent Snarker
• Sociopathic Hero
  • Heroic Comedic Sociopath
• Son of a Whore: Which his father killed and stole him from. Him and Wallace bond over this, so to speak.
  • Heroic Bastard
• Thou Shalt Not Kill Muggles: He personally doesn't have a problem with killing people but as a Twilight, he's not allowed to.
• Troubled but Cute
• Tyke Bomb: His commanding officer outright calls him this.

Alex Benedetto (アレックス・ベネデット)

A 24-year-old prostitute who is assisted by Worick and Nicolas during one of their jobs. Although ordered to eliminate her, Benriya decides instead to claim her as "loot" - effectively saving her life. With nowhere else to go, Alex begins working as Benriya's secretary. She is currently learning sign language so that she can better communicate with Nicolas.

• Ambiguously Brown
• Bad Dreams: Barry haunts her, thanks to the Psycho Serum he used to give her.
• Broken Bird
• The Chick
• Hooker With a Heart of Gold: Former, now.
• The Insomniac
• Ms. Fanservice
• Psycho Serum: Barry used to give her TB meds to make her dependent and obedient to him. On the other downside, it gives her horrible nightmares and hallucinations.
• Sexy Secretary
• The Team Normal: Compared to the other two anyway.
• Tsundere: To Worick, mostly.
• The Watson

Chad Adkins

A 56-year-old police officer. A long time associate of Benriya.

• Cool Old Guy: Though he's only 20 years older than Worick and Nicolas so he gets mad when they call him "Gramps" instead of "Old Man."
• Dirty Cop: Sometimes, in his dealings. Benriya aren't the worst folks in the city but they have murdered people.
  • Noble Bigot With a Badge: He's closer to this though.
• Jerk With a Heart of Gold
• Smoking Is Cool
• Team Dad: Seems to have been Worick and Nicolas' father figure growing up. He's even seen patching Nic up once.
