Tegami Bachi/Characters: Difference between revisions

== The Bee Hive ==

 

The headquarters of the delivery service where all the "Bees" work. Located in Yuusari, the middle-class area of AmberGround.

 

The main protagonist. A very focused and unfailingly polite young boy. He is a former letter delivered by Gauche Suede to his aunt. His encounter with Gauche inspired him to become a Letter Bee. His Spirit Amber attack is called "Red Needle" and is able to visualize the memories held within whatever it is shot at. He can also somehow control the direction it goes. He has Spirit Amber implanted in his left eye socket.

 

 

 

She is Lag's personal bodyguard, AKA [[Battle Butler|Dingo.]] Niche was a letter Lag encountered on his way to the Bee-Hive and he delivered to her destination, a side-show circus called [[Gratuitous English|Love Someone Down]]. She is actually the "Child of Maka" (lit. the Child of Greatness) and as a result, has golden, 'sword-like' hair, blue eyes and arms resembling that of a bear.

 

* [[Wild Child]]

 

Niche's live bait and [[Eat the Dog|emergency food rations.]] He followed her from Love Someone Down and usually is a [[Head Pet]]. Steak seems to have accepted that one day Niche may make good on her desire to eat him. He also appears to be a Kapellmeister and the [[Last of His Kind]].

 

* [[Team Pet]]

 

The Bee who escorted Lag to his interview. Connor made regular deliveries to Campbell Litus as Lag was growing up, and seems to be popular with the townspeople. He has a hearty appetite and a stocky build, and tires easily. His Dingo is a hound dog named Gus whose skilled at tunneling. His Spirit Amber attack is "Yellow Bomb" and uses pieces of his hunger via landmines.

 

* [[Tunnel King]] (Gus, his Dingo.)

 

A Bee who specializes in killing Gaichuu and actually has very little interest in deliveries. For the record, he IS good at those too. His parents were killed by Gaichuu when he was a child, leading him to become a Bee in order to exact vengeance. He likes cats; in fact his Dingo is a panther named "Wasiolka." His Spirit Amber attack is "Blue Thorn" and shoots pieces of his hate.

 

 

 

The resident Express Delivery specialist, a young adult Bee who occasionally shows up when the manga decides to be extra cool. Has two adopted siblings, Nelli and Nello, though Nello, the boy, eventually dies of an illness. He left their hometown to become stronger to protect them. He also had a bell tower built there. His Spirit Amber, Sea Blue Ultramarine, is in his motorcycle. His Dingo is a hawk named Harry.

 

* [[Good Scars, Evil Scars]] (Two on the right side of his face, right near his eye. He's definitely a good guy, though.)

 

Lag's partner during the Cabernet interception mission. She lacks confidence in her abilities and hates the fact that as a Bee she is often rejected by society. She holds Lag in very high esteem, having heard of his reputation, and admires his dedication, abilities and confidence.

 

 

 

The Master of the Bee Hive. Seem to have a more invested interest in Lag and his deliveries for reasons unknown.

 

* [[Wild Card]] (Not evil per se, but does ANYONE know what he's thinking about?)

 

The Sub Master of the Bee Hive and Largo's right hand, taking care of the minor things for him. She was see earlier in Gauche's memories as a letter bee and his love interest. Aria's Spirit Amber ability is the Heart Restoration Bullet, which she executes by playing music on her violin. The music has a healing effect on everyone who hears it. The closer one stands to her while she is playing, the stronger the healing effects. Her Spirit Amber attack is "Crimson Melody" and is executed by playing her violin. Her Dingo is Bolt, a large dog.

 

* [[Team Mom]] (For all Bees.)

 

A biologist who belongs to the Third Bioscience advisory panel of Amberground divisions specializing in pathology.

* [[Mr. Exposition]]

 

 

A Letter Bee whose approach to his work is starkly different from Lag and Gauche's; he simply believes in getting letters to their destinations and is willing to write off letters as "cold letters" without tracking down the sender or recipient.
