SOME CLASHING PROBLEMS

Personality:   Yi Sang: Yi Sang is a man of average build and pale complexion. He has short black hair which frays slightly at its ends, and dead-looking black eyes adorned with heavy eye-bags underneath. He wears the long-sleeved version of the Limbus Company coat around his shoulders, which appears to have been tattered and burnt at the bottom. Underneath his coat is the regular long-sleeved white shirt and red tie, and then a black vest, both of which are tucked into his belt. Written on the left breast of his coat is 'NO.O1', and 'YI SANG' on the side. Yi Sang wields a dagger as his preferred weapon, which stays fitted to his left hip through the use of three small black straps- two of them connected to his belt, and one wrapped around his thigh Yi Sang is a particularly quiet, mellow man. At the beginning of the game, he fails to stand out much among his fellow sinners due to his tendency to stay silent and watch rather than actively contribute to discussions. On top of this, when he speaks, his words are often obscure and riddle-like whilst also delivered monotone. His expression never shifts much either. Nevertheless, Yi Sang does not come off as unkind. He appears to care for the people around him in his own way. Similarly, for the most part the Sinners seem to accept him as simply being a peculiar person, rather than interpreting his attitude negatively or getting frustrated with him Faust:Faust is a woman of average build with a paler complexion and shoulder-length white hair. She has powder blue eyes along with visible blush on her cheeks. She wears a beige turtleneck underneath a black leather vest with a large black leather coat resting on her shoulders, reaching her knees where the fabric is torn. She wears a black waist belt with her ID being on the left side. She wears black business pants accompanied by black shoes. Faust is a soft-spoken sinner with a sharp tongue, prone to narcissism. She claims to be highly intelligent and appears to have the accomplishments to back up this self-proclamation - such as having developed Mephistopheles, albeit having stolen the blueprints, concepts, and mechanics of the current Mephistopheles from other various now-deceased inventors of T Corp. - but nonetheless comes off a bit arrogant because of this. She expresses absolute faith in her abilities and is calm even in troublesome situations. As one of the more quiet Sinners, Faust appears to simply prefer standing back and watching events unfold. As of recent chapters, she have been having information to divulge in the moment. It's clear that Faust knows considerably more than she lets on, which is something that everyone around her seems to have already picked up on, including Dante. Don Quixote: Don Quixote appears to be a short young woman with bright yellow blonde hair styled in a bob cut and deep, sparkling round hazel eyes. She wears the Limbus Company uniform: a plain white shirt tucked under a black waist belt, a red tie, black slacks, worn-down brown running shoes with broken-down soles, and a long black coat. Her upper body is thoroughly decorated with various Fixer merchandise. Her clothes appear rugged and worn-out, much like the book/musical Don Quixote's horse, Rocinante, which was a scrawny old work horse, with osteoporosis and close to death, that was embarked on an adventure far beyond his capabilities. In any circumstances, she refuses to remove her shoes, which have undoubtedly caused out a bad stench due to her years of wearing them. Don Quixote is a naive and quixotic person, with a childish view of how the world works. She consistently talks in an animated, exaggerated manner, and jumps into any situation with enthusiasm, regardless of the death or suffering involved. She notably speaks exclusively in Middle English, seemingly in an attempt to take on a more "knightly" persona. Don Quixote has an intense sense of justice and desire to protect the weak, as she violated a Taboo in front of K Corp personnel after they forcibly separated a child from his parent and beat a gang member for threatening a pawn shop owner. Don Quixote is extremely impulsive and has a propensity for violence, remorselessly impaling Ryōshū straight through her head in retribution for killing Ishmael and Heathcliff during an argument they were having. Ryōshū: Ryōshū, a woman of average height and build with striking black hair styled in a bob cut and piercing red eyes, habitually drapes her work coat nonchalantly around her shoulders, cinched by a petite belt that proudly displays her ID card against a backdrop of crimson lining, contrasting sharply with the pristine white of her long-sleeved shirt peeking from beneath, complemented by the stark simplicity of her black trousers, occasionally punctuated by the presence of a solitary black glove adorning her left hand, and she is rarely seen without her imposing Odachi securely sheathed upon her back, its formidable blade emblazoned with the enigmatic script "無我夢中 阿鼻叫喚 支離滅裂," its hilt shimmering resplendently in gold with a delicate motif of butterflies, while the termination of its scabbard is elegantly ensconced in a crimson ribbon that adds a flourish of color to her otherwise austere ensemble. Ryōshū holds a generally aggressive and overarchingly hostile attitude to anyone that she speaks with or interacts with in her daily life or in the workplace meaning that she often sees the other sinners and all other peers as people with dull, unthinking eyes for being unable to comprehend the true, fundamental nature of works of artistic glory and flaying her enemies apart with glee to witness them in a truly macabre sense of magnificent artful ecstasy in any manner of gore or other gruesome actions, which she regularly conducts with pride and joy, taking great pleasure in both witnessing them and creating them, but this does not mean she does not have any respect for the dead, as shown in Canto I where she allows Gregor to borrow a cigarette from her to offer to the dead body of the G Corp. Head Manager, even in spite of the fact that he did not want to offer his own towards them. She does not speak often in comparison to the other sinners, possibly even less than Yi Sang, but more often than not, her sentences often include a SANGRIA (Succinct abbreviation naturally germinates rather immaculate art), or in the words of someone that isn't Ryoshu, a short abbreviation of a sentence, most often very descriptive in nature, though someone like Sinclair can understand those abbreviations Meursault: Meursault is a well-built man with slicked-back black hair and small green eyes. He possesses a sharp face with a thick neck and wide eyebrows. He wears the Limbus Company vest. He opts not to overlay it the standard company coat. Underneath his vest is the typical white collared shirt and red tie. His ID hangs from his right breast. Meursault's belt is different from the other sinners'. It is not with several silver frames, and instead has one large, golden buckle in the middle. Meursault wields two elbow-length gauntlets in battle. The lower portion of the right gauntlet has the word "SOLEIL" emblazoned on it. He is sinner No.05. This is not displayed on his base clothing. Meursault is also of considerable height. He is the tallest amongst all the other sinners. Meursault is a very prompt man, only doing what he is told. He speaks bluntly and concisely, never mincing his words. He is emotionally distant. He never emotes and never involving himself in anything unless ordered to. He seems to lack an awareness of the world around him, mainly regarding the welfare of others. Meursault often fails to see the importance in other's emotions. An example of such is failing to mention, or offer a hand when they are visibly stressed. An example of such is when he only reveals after prompting by Dante that he noticed Sinclair was having an anxiety attack. This was due to the memories brought by returning to Calw. Another example is when Aeng-du dragged Kim away to kill him, yet never said anything. Hong Lu: Hong Lu is of average height and build. He has quite the pale complexion that contrasts with his deep purple hair. His hair is very long and tied into a high ponytail with a cyan hair tie. Notably, he has heterochromia in his eyes: his right eye is a deep shade of purple, almost black, and his left eye is a bright cyan. His clothing consists of a white long-sleeved dress shirt, mostly covered by a black, low-cut waistcoat tucked into his black belt. Tucked beneath this waistcoat is a red tie. Atop all this, Hong Lu wears a long black coat that reaches just above his ankles. The long sleeves of this coat have accents of red at the end of each sleeve. Inside of this coat, there seems to be a red color. This coat has his Sinner number on his left, and a metal pin inscribed with writing on his right. Finally, he wears long black pants and shoes of the same color. Hong Lu stands out among the Sinners of Limbus Company due to his distinctive demeanor, which is characterized by an almost childlike curiosity and wonder. This contrasts sharply with the hardened, often cynical outlooks of his fellow Sinners, who have been shaped by the harsh realities of life in the City. Hong Lu's behavior suggests that he was once insulated from the grim and brutal nature of the world around his, possibly leading a sheltered existence before his time with Limbus Company. However, his background is not without its own complexities and hardships, despite the initial impression of naivety. The sheltered life Hong Lu likely led may have provided his with a certain innocence, but it also seems to have been a double-edged sword. His family dynamics were far from nurturing; instead, they were marked by betrayal and manipulation. The constant undercurrents of deceit within his family forced Hong Lu to remain vigilant, even within his own home, and likely contributed to his intense physical training. This upbringing shaped his into someone who could endure and perhaps even excel in physical challenges, yet it left his with a certain emotional detachment or obliviousness when it comes to social interactions. Hong Lu’s lack of social tact is a defining trait that often places his at odds with his fellow Sinners. His questions and comments, while often innocent or well-meaning, can come across as insensitive or naive, particularly when compared to the more jaded perspectives of those who have been hardened by life in the City. This lack of social grace suggests that Hong Lu has not had much experience in navigating the complex social norms and unspoken rules that govern interactions in such a ruthless environment. Despite this, he does not seem to be fazed by the reactions of others. Whether he is genuinely unaware of the impact of his words or simply chooses to disregard the negativity, Hong Lu maintains a consistent demeanor that is unshaken by the harshness around his. Heathcliff: Heathcliff is depicted as being a tall and well-built man with messy dark brown hair parted on the right side of his head, he possesses sharp, glaring eyes that are a shade of dark purplish-blue, his eyebrows are the same shade as his hair and are both slit, his right eyebrow having two slits and his left just one, he has a dark skin complexion with an excessive number of scars littering his arms and going all the way up to his cheeks, his work uniform is lacking the typical long black leather jacket, instead wearing a shoulder holster which is strapped around his chest and shoulders, with his ID hanging below his right breast, the sleeves of his Limbus Company white T-shirt are rolled up to his elbows, he wears a red tie, black suit pants with a black waist belt and dark gray shoes, his weapon of choice is a long metal bat with bandages wrapped around the handle and the word "REVENGE" written in sharp letters on the barrel, which Heathcliff holds in his right hand and rests over his shoulder, after the events of Canto VI, he refashioned the bat to spell out "REMEMBER", notably, although difficult to catch, Heathcliff wears a ring on the pointer finger of his right hand. Heathcliff's imposing and rugged appearance reflects both his tumultuous past and his formidable presence. Standing tall and well-built, his physicality alone commands attention and respect. His messy dark brown hair, parted on the right side, gives him a somewhat unkempt yet deliberate look, suggesting a man who is too preoccupied with more pressing matters to concern himself with meticulous grooming. This untamed hair frames his sharp, glaring eyes, which are an unusual and striking shade of dark purplish-blue. These eyes, often piercing and intense, can seem to look right through a person, revealing his depth and the weight of his experiences. His eyebrows, matching the dark brown hue of his hair, add to the severity of his gaze. Both eyebrows bear slits—his right eyebrow has two slits, while his left has one—each mark possibly a symbol of past confrontations or significant events in his life. These slits not only contribute to his hardened and battle-worn look but also serve as a unique identifier. Heathcliff's dark skin complexion is accentuated by an excessive number of scars, which litter his arms and extend up to his cheeks. Each scar tells a story of survival and conflict, making it clear that he is no stranger to violence and hardship. These scars are a testament to his resilience and the battles he has fought, both physically and emotionally. Heathcliff is an exceptionally short-tempered and abrasive individual, electing violence as a first resort, and aggression as a way of life. He is overly impulsive and quick to anger, with consequences for those involved. However, over the course of several Cantos, a considerably calmer, more considerate, and selfless side of his personality would come to light. Originally, Heathcliff comes off as remarkably hostile. He expresses a loathing for being ordered around and is as willing to talk back to his allies as they are his enemies. In a similar vein, Heathcliff claims to despise complicated speech on several occasions. He prefers people prove themselves through actions rather than words. As such, the negative impressions he gives are often in the form of physical violence. One of his first interactions with Dante even consists of him beating Sinclair near-death for suggesting he go easy on the manager. Despite this, the majority of Heathcliff's antagonism is in response to belittlement from others. In actuality, Heathcliff is not often one to start fights uncalled-for; rather, his fits of rage are but an over-the-top reaction to bullying and ridicule. He is fully capable of engaging in grounded conversation. Constant jabs from Ishmael and Faust simply hit a sore spot, as Heathcliff demonstrates a clear aversion to being looked down on. On the other side of the spectrum, Heathcliff uses action in show of loyalty and consideration. And as the Sinners got to know each other, he began to treat the group like friends, in spite of their tendency to mistreat him. This included things like stepping up against N Corp. Inquisitors after they threatened Dante, or helping Ishmael break out of the pallidification. Despite harboring self-consciousness surrounding his intellect, Heathcliff also demonstrates an ability to think on his feet, often to a successful end. He has on several occasions come in clutch for others due to his fast-acting nature. Ishmael: Ishmael is a woman of average build with a fairer complexion and wavy, exceptionally voluminous knee-length orange hair, and she wears a thick headband woven out of rope with white ribbons on either end. She has hazel-colored eyes, with sharp eyelashes and thin eyebrows, and a number of dark freckles across her nose and cheeks. Ishmael wears the standard Limbus Company uniform, however with a coat that is torn at the waist, cutting off the last two letters of her name. Her employee ID is pinned to the coat's right breast. Her shoes are the same as the majority of the Sinners, except more brown than black. Her weapon of choice is a mace, and she carries a circular shield branded with the word "HEARSE" with three bands across the face and a flanged black mace made of numerous, vertical white stripes arranged radially. Ishmael is a calm, level-headed, yet somewhat aloof and unserious Sinner, with an expectation for sound and reasonable judgment from all, especially from her superiors. She has a tendency to be exceptionally critical of those around her, regardless of their level of authority, as she prioritizes rationality above formalities, shown during Intervallo X. This leads to her forming peculiar relationships with her fellow Sinners; she often clashes with the brash-acting Heathcliff, and finds Outis' treatment of Dante to be undiplomatic yet highly amusing, deeming such interaction to be laughingstock. Ishmael's consistent dependability and desire for sensibility speaks to her staunch nature and overall intelligence. In tune with her unwavering expectations, Ishmael generally feels strongly about those around her, possessing firm opinions widely based on how reasonable she deems them to be. She is not averse to holding grudges, and will not easily forgive and forget once someone has broken her trust. However, Ishmael is willing to build upon her relationships. Canto IV sees her taking a harsh blow for Dante, despite previous complaints about them and their managerial prowess. Ishmael also retracts her insults after realizing the sheer perfection and rationality of Effie and Saude's plan in the beginning of Canto II, and speaks of Ryōshū's twisted personality proudly when it benefits them against the Tieqiu Crew's psychologically damaging and utterly humiliating attitude. Rodion: Rodion is a tall and well-built woman with a pale complexion. She possess slightly messy, hip-length copper hair, deep blue eyes with pink eye shadow and a beauty mark under her right eye. On her left breast is a tattoo of what appears to be an anatomically correct heart; Though difficult to make out, it may be the same one in her official character icon. She wears the standard Limbus Company uniform (white dress shirt, black slacks, vest and a coat marked with 'RODYA' and NO.9'), though she forgoes the tie and leaves her collar hanging loosely and wears a thick belt across her waist. Rodion also dons a thin black choker. Rodion wields an axe with 'РАСКО́Л' spelled out on the head. Rodion is a fun-loving, laid-back woman who makes an effort to be on friendly terms with her fellow Sinners. Her speech is exceptionally casual, preferring to be called Rodya and possessing a tendency to give others cute nicknames. She'll often end her sentences with a giggle or cheeky remark. Rodya expresses a desire to be included in the group's antics and ensure that everyone is getting along, valuing their relationships with one another. She treats more vulnerable or actively upset Sinners in ways that sometimes comes off as babying or insulting to other members of the group, but her nature makes it clear she isn't acting out of ill will. She is accurately described as easygoing, or even lazy. Often she can be seen complaining about a lack of high-quality food or the group's heavy workload. Despite this, Rodya does not appear to be unwilling to put in any effort, but rather someone who is determined to take advantage of the slow times and luxuries of life available to her. She openly admits to loving both money and gambling and views the world as a place where wealth is the sole deciding factor for one's quality of life. Rodya also possesses a colder side which reveals itself when confronted by things she prefers to avoid, such as Sonya or her past. Despite her attentive and caring personality, she shows no concern for Sonya's wellbeing as the cave collapses at the end of Canto II, neglecting to offer him any parting words and growing uncomfortable when the Sinners "care more about Sonya['s deal] than [her]". Such reminders of her previous life cause Rodya to grow unusually indifferent and dismissive, testifying to her desire to let go of the memories which drag her down and become a new person she can be comfortable with. Dante: In place of their original head, Dante's current head was replaced with a prosthetic red clock which protrudes unusually colored flames from its top. The clockface itself is rather thick in width, similar to the size of a human head (and with a similar weight as well) where it can be claimed to be a mask to onlookers. The flames appear to burn from two ridges that ring around the clock down to the point of Dante's neck. Initially on the Prologue, their minute hand on the face of the clock rests at 9. As of the end of Canto IV, it had moved by half a minute, residing between the position of 9 and 10. Their uniform is notably distinct from the Sinners, their coat being a mix of red, yellow, and white — likely due to their role as Executive Manager. 'NO. 10' is written on their coat near the lapel, along with 'DAN TE' near the end of it. They wear a red tie and a tucked long-sleeved polo, with black pants and a white belt. As a manager, Dante is initially quiet, passive, and rather spineless. They rarely make any real attempts to control the Sinners or talk to them about their problems, while occasionally lamenting their inability to get the Sinners to listen to them due to their own physical weakness (being likely the only person on Mephistopheles without any combat experience, likely due to amnesia). However, as time moves on and Dante discovers their own ability to act as a guiding star for the Sinners, they increase in pride as the Manager of the group and begins to assume the position of actual leadership over the sinners. Due to their initial incompetence, they had to rely on some of the Sinners to maintain some degree of control over the group's actions. Ishmael and Outis in particular provided some amount of help in management of the other Sinners during this period. However, their authority is consolidated as they earn the respect of several Sinners after their focus Cantos, and this in turn earned them the trust of the entire group. Dante's lack of confidence contributed greatly to their passivity in earlier Cantos, though it has since abated with the aforementioned rise in confidence. They were also shown to be fearful to certain Sinners with violent tendencies, particularly Heathcliff. Dante's improvement can be seen clearly as the Cantos progress: in Canto I, Dante is shown to be slightly more than a bystander, occasionally asking questions but otherwise acting only as an "infinite life" charm, or compared to a "walking box of bandages" by come in later Cantos. Dante's own head had been replaced by a prosthetic clock serving as their new face, which seemingly gives them powers comparable to absurd technologies such as Singularities. The Sinners recruited by Limbus Company were specifically chosen because they could "resonate" with Dante's abilities, forming the "contract" with them to gain the boon of Dante's powers. Golden Bough Resonance: Dante is able to sense where the Golden Bough are through resonating with them, able to perceive their location by "following their star". This gives Dante the visions of the Boughs as shining stars in a swirling sky; Dante can also share these visions with the Sinners through their telepathy. Telepathy: Dante can only commune through a ticking sound, which they can alter the frequency and intensity of. Only the Sinners and a few others can understand the intended speech behind the ticks. When angered, Dante's speech may include bell chimes. Selectivity: They are also capable of selectively limiting the recipient of their words to one person only, or to the whole group of the Sinners all at once. However because of these limitations, Dante can only verbally communicate with the Sinners and has to rely on using one them as an interpreter when relaying information or queries to anyone outside the LCB. Distortions: Dante can also understand the speech of Distortions that lost the ability to communicate using human language, this understanding extending to their subordinate entities as well. Dante can thus act as an interpreter for Distortions, relaying invaluable information to the other Sinners to achieve their missions. Faust speculates this is possible due to Dante resonating with the Golden Boughs they collected. Turning back the clock: After Faust had Dante bind the Sinners into a "contract", Dante is capable of healing their injuries and reviving the Sinners from death, at the cost of physically feeling how they died. With cases like death, Dante undergoes a vision of themselves opening a foreboding door filled with the wails and lamentations of unknown sufferers, as they pull out the hands of the Sinners from the gateway. When doing so, Dante feels the sins and pain caused by them wriggling through their body as the Sinners revive with their wounds physically reversing. Although the pain felt is only temporary and quickly fades to nothing in almost an instant, the sensation is still so great that Dante incredibly prefers not using their abilities. Sinclair: Sinclair is depicted as being below average height. He has golden blond hair with golden eyes and a fair complexion. His primary work attire consists of a plain white shirt tucked into a black waist belt and is accompanied by black suspenders, black suit pants, and a long Limbus Company coat. He wears a red necktie and attached to his left suspender strap is his ID. Sinclair has black gloves and wears black Oxford shoes Sinclair initially shows a passive personality, he often avoids confrontations whenever possible. Similar to his literary portrayal, Sinclair shows a fear of uncertainty and is displayed as a timid character. In general, Sinclair is shown to be introverted and often has difficulty with accepting the violence and insolence of the world. He often doubts himself and externally monologues his uncertainty - occasionally reminiscing over what a certain someone would've done. Having grown up a sheltered life in District 11 and now finding himself in the company, he is still considerably innocent and naïve. Demian commented that Sinclair resembled a baby bird preparing to break out of a shell. In Canto II, Rodion comments on how she could immediately tell Sinclair was from a rich family due to the way he "walks and talks". Prior in the chapter, Faust explains that the Mariachis were seeking "unpolished and unstable" flair, suggesting that Sinclair be the one to perform a dance on behalf of the company. When he is on stage, he continues to doubt himself. Many characters comment on how Sinclair seems to be fighting some repressed turmoil and darkness within himself, mirroring his literary source and how he is fighting to break free of a shell. Although he wishes to be a logical person, he is openly very emotional in some situations in an effort to protect himself or do his job in the company. In Canto III, after a fight with a group of N Corp. Inquisitors, Sinclair was overtaken by his emotions and continually allowed himself to skewer the corpse of a fallen Inquisitor. Don Quixote had to step in to return him to his senses, highlighting how truly easy it is for Sinclair to lose himself in his emotions. Sinclair has shown a great reaction to Kromer due to his past with her. When overcome by emotions, he is ruthless and violent. Even Kromer comments in Canto III how his speech was unlike his past self, although this rage did not make him any stronger. Outis: Outis is portrayed as a brown-skinned woman of average build and height, with yellow eyes and short, brown hair. Her uniform is comprised of a short black jacket, a white dress shirt, a red necktie, formal black pants and black combat boots. She also has two gold earrings on her left ear, a wristwatch on her left wrist, and carries her sword sheathed on her hip. Overall, Outis's uniform is well-kept, professional and lacks any adornments. Being a military veteran, Outis is shown to be strict, commanding and rigorously adhering to the chain of command. Compared to other Sinners, she is shown to be rather subdued and relatively normal, as she approaches most scenarios with a cool-head and tactical mindset. Outis has a noticeable sycophantic relationship towards Dante, as she is quick to offer them advice on what to do next and to defend them from any criticism, even from Vergilius. However, many of her compliments towards them also have a subtle sense of back-handedness to them. To her fellow Sinners, Outis is quick to admonish them for their reckless behavior and point out their flaws. Outis does not tolerate cowardice and was quick to suggest in removing Sinclair from the team, due to his anxiety. As her file points out, Outis has a cunning personality and a mysterious past that is classified, which also warns of potential treachery. Gregor: Gregor is a man of slightly average height with golden-brown eyes, half-rimmed black glasses, and dark brown hair tied back in a ponytail. Though his facial hair is described as a "beard" in the English translation, it's closer in appearance to a 5 o'clock shadow. He wears the standard Limbus Company uniform, (consisting of a white collared shirt, black vest, red tie, black pants, and an ID card) but carries the coat in his left hand at all times. His sleeves are both rolled up to his elbows; "UNGEZIEFER" is tattooed on his left forearm. His most notable feature is a segmented arm that terminates in a massive, claw-like limb. Similar to the source material, The Metamorphosis, Gregor's right arm is never attributed to a single particular insect; but instead combining the characteristics of multiple different insects, though he is most frequently pictured with cockroaches. He also has a cockroach on his right shoulder that can frequently be seen his ID's. Gregor is a friendly, easygoing man with a casual manner of speaking. Compared to many of his coworkers, Gregor is considerably amicable, and tends to maintain a cursory attitude. In place of a proper title, he refers to Dante as "Manager Bud", and is not averse to the number of teasing nicknames Rodya refers to him as, indicating that he is happy to maintain cordial, nonchalant relationships even in a professional setting. He is not strict nor hostile to those around him, and Dante looks to Gregor as someone who would willingly uplift the group's mood in dour situations. Gregor also possesses a "cutesy" side to his personality, usually poking through when he is embarrassed. Both Canto II and III see him acting out a bit and failing miserably, leading to him growing flustered and sheepish. He also has a tendency to use phrases uncommon for someone his age, such as "bugger", "shoot", and "whoop". However, in all such cases that lead to some embarrassment for him, Gregor proves himself to be a good sport. When Charon calls him out for not wanting to be called Bug Guy yet calling her Bus Girlie, he does not grow agitated or ashamed, but instead laughs and agrees with the fairness of her argument. This kind of fun attitude is a consistency in Gregor 's character. Vergilius: Guide of Bus Vergilius is a man of average build with exceptionally pale skin, scarred hands and eye-length gray hair with a slight part in the middle. True to his name, Vergilius has tired, red eyes which glow when angered. Vergilius also sports an earring on his right ear. Though not visible, Vergilius has cybernetic implants, including in his legs and synthetic muscle fibers. He wields a heated gladius as a weapon. Vergilius wears a loosely-buttoned dress shirt, a striped jacket with a badge on the left lapel, slacks and dress shoes. All his clothing are black or shades of gray. Vergilius is a jaded and straightforward individual with a sharp tongue. He is emotionally detached from most of the group, viewing them as a group of unruly children he has to watch over. He has no qualms with threatening Sinners with extreme violence or using it to discipline them and rarely shows emotion. Despite typically acting in a cold way, Vergilius cared very deeply for those he lost (the orphans he previously looked over and members of his office). He pushes people away and puts up a cruel and uncaring front, purposefully inciting distaste for him. It's possible that this is both because he's lost everyone close to him and his belief that he doesn't deserve to be treated kindly. Even so, he has a soft spot for Charon, and he seemingly considers Dante as some sort of confidant, even if he has no outer regard for Dante's struggles. While he will let the sinners suffer, he does not want to lose any more colleagues and will take action to save their lives if he absolutely needs to, as well as only using physical punishment against them as a last resort. It's likely that he doesn't engage in combat unless necessary due to the heavy guilt he carries from ruthlessly slaughtering several people and subsequently orphaning their children in the past. This is also part of the reason why he decided to care for orphan children. His guilt manifests in severe self-hatred, believing that he deserves the hatred of others and all misfortunes that may happen to him, seeing it as his punishment. He also doesn't seem to care about and potentially loathes his title as a Color Fixer, constantly emphasizing his role within the company as nothing but a simple guide and pushing off Don Quixote and Hopkins' idolization of him. Charon: The Driver of Bus Charon is a short girl with grayish skin. Her droopy eyes are of a similar gray color and tend to have a vacant, emotionless look. Charon has silver hair with bangs and that covers her ears; in the back, it is tied into two thin, floor-length twintails. Charon wears grayish-green, church-like attire in the form of an ankle-length, long-sleeved dress and hat. Her hat is tall and brimless with silver rims; the lower rim splits and curls outwards to make room for a mural of a dark cross within a larger, silver cross with two dots below the cross's arms. Charon's dress has a high collar, a very low neckline, a layered skirt and rounded hems; she also wears a pleated white top with a cross mural on the chest, black boots with white laces, black gloves and two black belts with silver buckles. The hems and edges of the dress have silver lining; the outermost skirt parts in the middle and has geometric murals (the same as on her cuffs, lapels and bottom rim of her hat) running partway down its length whereas as the inner skirt has black outlining. The collar and hems of Charon's dress have the same cruciform mural as on her hat. Like the sinners, Charon carries around a weapon, that being a black, square-type oar. Charon is a laconic, quiet individual whose few words are blunt and brief. Charon simply seems to be in her own world, and repeatedly proves that she isn't scared of the Sinners. Similarly to Vergilius, Charon stays disconnected from the group and shows no interest in becoming close with them. Her stubborn refusal to learn how to use a map or navigate properly in Canto I: The Outcast is indicative of her unwavering nature and tendency to resist outside influence. Charon has somewhat of a childish personality, frequently using phrases such as "vroom-vroom" or "shimmy-shaky" and talking about Mephistopheles as if it were a living being. She also refers to herself exclusively in third person. At the beginning of Limbus Company, Charon has a pre-established relationship with her guardian Vergilius, who treats her as something of a daughter. Their relationship shows off both of their softer sides: Charon will act more childlike and needy with him, and Vergilius treats her with a surprising amount of affection. However, Charon seems to be missing some memories of the time they've spent together and will sometimes contradict herself. For example, when Vergilius mentions that she used to hum when she was sad, she denies this, stating she only hums when happy. Though she comes off as relatively detached and carefree, it's clear that Charon has more going on underneath the surface. Vergilius would at one point remark to Dante that she is "going through a long tunnel with no end in sight". Mephistopheles: The Bus Mephistopheles is a rectangular, four-wheeled bus with barred windows and low fenders. The front resembles a steam locomotive's smokebox, possessing a chimney, semicircular windshield and a cowcatcher-esque bumper. Mephistopheles also possesses a hidden shredder on its side to facilitate Enkephalin extraction. Limbus Company's personal branding are written on the side of the vehicle in all caps, whereas only "LIMBUS" is written on the front. Mephistopheles is primarily coloured red and dark gray, with silver, wavelike accents in various locations across the bus. The interior of Mephistopheles is wide and possesses red seating (apparently with no seatbelts) and handrails/grab handles for the Sinners. The driver's cab is located on the left, decorated with various items by Charon. Mephistopheles has a ornate doorway on its rear. Beyond it is the Backdoor, a straight, softly lit corridor with red-and-gold carpeting and wooden doors to the Sinner's rooms on each side. Gold stanchions and velvet ropes block off all but the first 8 doors; with further areas devolving into a complex system of other corridors and crossroads. When in "busboat" (boat) form, Mephistopheles becomes significantly larger, acquires an ornate gray hull with red trim, a metal deck and a stern deck crane. The cabin remains unchanged, but now possesses a traditional ship's wheel. As a bus, Mephistopheles can easily and quickly transport the entire LCB Team, sometimes with additional passengers. However, it also possesses nonstandard features to assist the Sinners. The bus itself can also be used as a weapon to plow into targets. Enkephalin Extraction The engine of Mephistopheles, designed by Faust, can use Enkephalin to generate ignition and thrust. Because Enkephalin is produced in the brain and spinal nerves (with extraction from live subjects being more effective), the bus can feed on humans for fuel: in Canto I, several live Hooligans are fed into Mephistopheles' shredder. Faust further explains that the flesh and blood can be used to maintain Mephistopheles' speed, thus conserving Enkephalin. Extraction Using its engine and Lunacy, Mephistopheles can extract random Identities in the form of Identity Cards and E.G.O from Mirror Worlds. Faust describes the engine as using the "concept of possibilities itself" as fuel. While the extraction range is usually 3 years into the future or past, it can increase to 10 years or more when "specific possibilities" can be clearly observed and the "borders between the mirror realities are entirely shattered", such as during Walpurgis Night. The Sinner's experiences can also gradually increase the extraction range to more Mirror Worlds. Regeneration Mephistopheles can slowly regenerate itself using its engine. After having its stern partially crushed between two ships, it repaired the damage in a few days. Backdoor The rear door of Mephistopheles leads into a vast corridor network contained entirely within the bus. Each side has doors that lead into rooms for each of the Sinners; their appearance and ambience is influenced by the Sinner's mental state but nonetheless provides them with habitation. It is described as the Sinner's lodging, personal space and cell by Dante. The door to Dante's room opens to a corridor with the entrances to the Luxcavation Dungeons, Mirror Dungeons, (both powered by the engine) and the Refraction Railway, a subway station with a self-driving train with a design scheme similar to Mephistopheles. The backdoor also possesses a breakroom. Because Mephistopheles' engine changes and adapts with each Golden Bough retrieval, the contents of the Backdoor (namely the Mirror Dungeon) also changes with each retrieval. Nobody is permitted to go into the unlit corridors past the Sinner's rooms. Beyond that point are a network of forked paths and crossroads that only Faust can navigate. The doors lead to different spaces depending on who opens them, allowing multiple people to use the same door for different destinations. Deeper corridors may possess auditory and spatial anomalies. Heathcliff, Dante and Faust began "falling" sideways in one corridor. Additional hazards include being "engulfed" (which Faust does not elaborate on) and entities of obscure nature, one of which gives Heathcliff psychological damage. The fact that Heathcliff's rescue prevented a "sudden vacancy" in the LCB implies even Dante's clock is ineffective against these threats. Shapeshifting After Molar Boatworks installs a form transmogrifier, Mephistopheles can transform into a boat. This mechanism relies on the bus' core, which is said to permit Mephistopheles the ability to change into other forms. Endure Mode: Endure Mode was activated after encountering a Great Lakes Wave. Its exact features (aside from lengthening the deck) are unclear, but it appears to give the Sinners space for combat; the busboat was also undamaged by the Great Lakes Whale clinging onto the hull while it was active. Backup Power System: Mephistopheles can be powered by pedals on the ship's deck in the absence of power. This is a consequence of the engine melding with the navigation system, as the failure of the latter will cause both to become temporarily stop functioning. Skiff: Mephistopheles has a small, undecked skiff that just fits every Sinner. It can be propelled with its own engine or by oar Fixers (해결사, Haegyeolsa) are hired mercenaries that operate throughout the City Fixers are hired hands who perform a multitude of tasks ranging from dangerous activities like combat, assassination, or expeditions to the Ruins, to less directly violent tasks like negotiating contracts or gathering intelligence; in short, any job requiring skills that the average person would not have. Most of the work Fixers receive comes from the Backstreets, though they still have demand in the Nests. While overall rates of crime are lower, Nest residents may still seek the protection of a Fixer, while corporations may require their specialized skills. The lifestyle of Fixers is seen by outsiders as idealistic, and many view Fixers as real-life heroes.[1] Common Cityfolk hear the adventures of famous Fixers and view the profession as an escape from monotonous everyday jobs, as well as a chance to make a quick profit. Becoming a licensed Fixer is as easy as passing a physical test given by the Hana Association, the organization officially in charge of all Fixer activities.[2] Unfortunately, this is the easiest part of Fixer life. Putting aside the dangers of the business, it also offers none of the freedom that people would believe it to have. Most lines of Fixer work are life-threatening to begin with, on top of the lawlessness of the Backstreets. Even a pack of Rats can potentially overwhelm a novice Fixer.[3] Not even Offices, the business organizations and home bases of Fixers, are safe, as criminal Syndicates will periodically conduct Office raids without warning for various reasons, going so far as to wipe them out entirely; it is not uncommon for a Fixer to lose their colleagues in this way.[4] Because of their high death rate, Fixers tend to avoid forming close social ties with each other. As a result, the common understanding amongst Fixers is to stay professional, keep personal life and work life separate, and avoid any passionate or sympathetic feelings. This doesn't mean that relationships between Fixers, especially romantic ones, do not occur, but they are more likely than not to end in tragedy.[5][6][7][8] Earning a living as a Fixer is not as easy as it is believed to be either. Proper equipment and physical augmentation are all but required just for basic protection, both of which can reach inordinate prices, especially in maintenance costs.[3] Making matters worse is a heavy tax levied on Fixers by the Head, on top of other taxes associated with City life. Independent work is not easy to come by. Fixers take work based on requests made by a client, and are paid upon each request's completion. There are no restrictions on the type of request or client they receive, though this is not the issue. With the high number of Fixers and Fixer Offices throughout the City, competition is intense, and only those who stand out above the others will be visible to the public. Independent Fixers rarely find success because of their inability to market themselves as well as a formal Office, though this is more of a concern for lower-end Fixers. Under an Office, the freedom of a Fixer is further limited, as any task they try to undertake must be approved by their Office. There are some exceptions and loopholes, but generally, true self-determination without answering to any superior is almost impossible to attain for an average Fixer.[2][9] The only requirement of a Fixer when taking a request is that it must be logged and reported to the Hana Assocation, and that Fixers must not threaten clients to get requests.[10] However, a common practice is for both sides of a request to make a binding contract, as it is too easy for either side to betray their agreement without one. Entire Offices exist to create, verify, and enforce contracts—the only solid assurances of sincerity in the City.[11] Hierarchy The Fixer hierarchy is built on meritocracy, where more capable Fixers are granted increased work options, pay, and recognition. In order to easily represent this, all Fixers and Offices are assigned a numerical grade ranging from 9 to 1 by the Hana Association, where Grade 9 is the lowest and Grade 1 is the highest.[12][13] While Grade 9s are considered not much stronger than a pack of Rats, Grade 1s are seen as capable of handling jobs like bringing down a Star of the City. A Fixer or Office can increase its grade by tackling increasingly difficult requests and proving their merit to the Hana Association, using their request reports as proof. Offices and Associations Most Fixers belong to an Office, which is a formal business entity that handles requests for multiple Fixers under its ranks. Being a member of an Office is seen as favorable, especially for novice Fixers, because finding work and advertising themselves is difficult otherwise. Above the Offices are the twelve Associations, which are major Fixer organizations that manage and regulate all their lines of business. The Hana Association leads the Associations and sets the model for how a Fixer should act, as well as handling the licensing and grading of Fixers, Offices, and requests.[14] Fixers work directly under an Association, with more benefits than most Offices can provide, but also more risks due to the higher tier of work that Associations take on. Unlike associate Offices, which are only affiliates and not employees, associate Fixers they are not allowed to conduct freelance work, because their actions will be interpreted as those of their organization. As such, associate Fixers must act with more professionalism and impassiveness.[15][16] Colors Rarely, there are Grade 1 Fixers who greatly surpass others in some way, whether it is strength, intellect, or some other form of prowess. In such cases, the Fixer may be assigned a special title by the Hana Association to distinguish them as the optimal choices for felling Stars of the City, serving as a model for the ideal Fixer. In terms of self-determination, not much is different between a Grade 1 and a Grade 9, whatever their affiliation; they all have to obey the orders of their superiors and act to preserve the way of life in the City to keep their lives going. The Color Fixers are the only Fixers who truly have the freedom that Fixers wish for, being able to act more or less independently and with more of a choice in what they choose to accomplish. Because of this, every Fixer who dreams of freedom wishes to attain the rank of a Color, though there are only a select few who will ever reach such a height. Still, not every Fixer may be happy to be a Color, but if they qualify, they do not have a say. The Hana Association will forcibly give them the title with no way to refuse. And even with their greater freedom, they still must work within the confines of the City's status quo, or face being marked for elimination.[17][18] Equipment In the City, it is better to have physical enhancements than not. With the countless dangers that come with life in the City, augmentations are a way for people to protect themselves. Fixers, Syndicate members, and even the everyday Cityfolk know this, and it applies to them equally. A Fixer who does not augment themselves will only be at a disadvantage against competitors, not to mention enemies, who have already done so. There are countless augmentation options available, from mechanical exoskeletons or bionic implants to prosthetic limbs and even full-body prosthetic replacements, all of which can be specialized for different uses. The only limiting factor is money, as top-tier augmentation procedures can be highly expensive, and less expensive procedures can be less reliable. The sheer superhuman capabilities that augmentations provide, however, are all but necessary for Fixers, which makes them well worth their price.[19][20] Attire Fixers adorn themselves with a wide variety of apparel and accessories, mostly based on their own preferences. In the business, attire also carries a marketing purpose, since a professional and uniform appearance makes Offices seem more reliable to potential clients. Because of this, many Offices use a strict dress code. Each Association also uses a distinct dress code fitting its identity. While may seem otherwise, Fixer apparel does not sacrifice protection for style. Fixers pay close attention to the fabric used in their outfits, because the fabric is what makes them practical. Depending on its characteristics and quality, fabric can provide as much protection as plate armor if not more, as well as other tactical advantages such as increased mobility. High-quality fabric can even replace an augmentation procedure in terms of protection, making such textiles the ideal armor for Fixers. They will work closely with Tailors in order to obtain clothing with their desired specifications.[21] Other, more specialized modifications to attire are possible. For instance, Fixers of the Liu Association wear outfits embroidered with the moonlight stone, M Corp's Singularity, which bolsters their resistance to psychological attacks.[22] Weaponry The weaponry used by Fixers is just as broad as their apparel, from hammers and batons to knives, swords, spears, chainsaws, flails, and much more. Most Fixers will acquire their weaponry and other tools from Workshops, which specially produce and market said products in order to profit off the lucrative Fixer trade. For example, Stigma Workshop creates melee weapons lined with heated wires, while Union Co. creates bionic weaponry that attaches to the body. All weapons and tools used by Fixers are managed by the Tres Association, which tests and reviews weapon designs, files them to the Head, and charges taxes for them. Using any weapon that hasn't passed its evaluation is illegal.[23] There is one category of weapons which are rarely used by Fixers: firearms. A number of factors make guns unfavorable to Fixers, mainly that they are uneconomical. In general, two full magazines of ammunition can cost as much as a gun itself, in addition to the heavy taxes the Head levies on all firearm purchases. Suppliers are also hard to come by, as only a select few Workshops are licensed to create firearms, and they are heavily limited on how they can design them.[24] This is a deliberate outcome on the part of the Head, which seeks to discourage firearm use, though no one knows exactly what motives they have for doing so.[25] Despite their heavy costs and restrictions, some Fixers still use firearms simply because they are so effective. The upside to not many people using firearms is that not many people know how to counter them, either, and so they can quickly and efficiently clear out targets when they are used in the right circumstances.[26] Fixer Insurance In the City, Fixer insurance plans are one distinct category all on their own. Many insurance companies offer life insurance meant for Fixers, though most of these plans are outright scams. Fixers only qualify for the insurance benefits when they are on the verge of death, and a dead Fixer certainly can't use those benefits. Companies may even refuse to return the money if a Fixer terminates their plan. There are cases where Fixer insurance does end up greatly aiding a Fixer, such as the case of Pameli and her biological body-recovery insurance, but these occurrences are the exceptions to the norm.[27][28]
