Power: Hard Shell - can absorb and is impervious to all damage for a period of time. Source of Energy: Sugar Personality: Like his favorite food, Atlas is sweet. His timid nature and desire to get along with others make him quite the pushover, but the researchers have come to appreciate his genuine kindness (especially when Phoebe and Daphnis are fighting for the thousandth time). History: The first Project Titan experiment, Atlas was a moderate success. His skills and powers are not as varied and developed as the other children, but what he does, he does well. Color: 7F4937
Power(s): Sharp Limbs - Her arms and legs are deadly sharp and can be used as weapons. Camouflage - she can change aspects of her appearance to blend in to the environment. Source of Energy: Living things Personality: The poster child of Project Titan, Daphnis has a big head and a tendency to lord herself over others, leading to frequent conflicts with Phoebe. She's smart, adaptable, and aggressive. History: Daphnis has exceeded expectations in every category of her development, and Project Titan has especially high hopes for her use in combat against extraterrestrials, although her skills lie more in espionage than all-out battle. Color: 77D300
Power: Flame Ray - after absorbing enough heat energy, she expels it in a powerful blast. Source of Energy: Heat Personality: Alien DNA or not, Phoebe has always been a handful. She's a loud, brash, headstrong girl who prefers to fight fire with fire and never needs an excuse to get physical. She struggles with the changes happening to her body and the strong emotions that come with. History: One of the first batch of Project Titan's experiments, Phoebe was injected with alien DNA in the womb and grew up under the watchful eye of Dr. Raymond Park and his crew. Like the other children of Project Titan, she is a test tube baby who does not know any of her biological ancestors, although the surrogate who gave birth to her was a CETM employee who was transferred out of The Bay once Phoebe was born. Color: FA3EFF
Power: Charming Light - her light attracts, stuns, and hypnotizes others. Source of Energy: Magnesium Personality: Flirty and airy, Calypso stays out of the drama and always seems to have her head in the clouds. Her charismatic personality has helped her negotiate better conditions for her and her "siblings," and Dr. Park at least has taken note of the sharp eyes that lie beneath her rose-colored glasses. History: The most physically frail of the Project Titan experiments, Calypso plays a support role to the other three in combat situations. Color: DBFF00
Name: Calvin "Cal" Cuffman Position: CETM Support Forces, Medical Division Gender: Male Age: 52 Nationality: Irish Personality: Tired and unassuming, but with a dogged determination to survive. Cal has dragged himself and others out of the jaws of death on many occasions, and he will continue to fight, no matter the odds. History: A soldier of Project Myrmidon in the early days of the CETM, Cal was put out of commission by an alien attack that caused him to lose both his legs. Afterwards, he began medical training out of both personal interest and as a way to contribute to the war effort. Color: D2B48C
Name: Anvi Kharbanda Position: Project Colossus Mech Pilot Gender: Female Age: 19 Nationality: British-Indian Personality: Warning: Anvi has teeth, and she will bite. From the streets of the UK to the halls of The Bay, Anvi has attacked every challenge, every directive, every insult and every weird look with the same razor-sharp finesse. Anvi is particularly defensive with Ruth-Ann Meyers, another pilot with Project Colossus who joined at the same time. The two quickly became close, and Anvi becomes outright feral when Ruth-Ann is threatened. History: A street urchin scouted by Project Colossus' recruitment team, Anvi quickly proved her mettle to Dr. McCulloch and scared away the other mech pilots. Her unconventional approach to problems and her refusal to let any opening go unexploited make her an asset against ever-adapting alien attackers. Color: 4E25FF
Name: Ruth-Ann Meyers Position: Project Colossus Mech Pilot Gender: Female Age: 13 Nationality: English Personality: Adorable, clever, sensitive. Ruth-Ann lives in her own world. Her reliance on sensory aids and her discomfort in social situations may put her at a disadvantage on land, but in the suit, she becomes unstoppable. If the mechs didn't require daily maintenance, Ruth-Ann would eat and sleep in hers. She loves nothing more than to hole up inside it like a rabbit in a burrow. History: A nonverbal gifted student with a hyperfixation on robots and mechanical wonders, Ruth-Ann was put on to Project Colossus as a middle school student and never looked back. Her parents worry about the consequences of war on their little girl, but there's nobody on Earth that doesn't understand the dire straits they're in, and Ruth-Ann has blossomed under some of the best education and technology the planet has to offer.

@Lemons Yes, sorry. I figured that Mikako + Suzu + Junko was enough for one scene, especially if there’s lot of back and forth, so I didn’t want to push Eikichi in there for fear of making it too complicated. I think I’ll make him go out into the hall to run into our resident delinquent. :)
“If they are so determined to make me the villain, then I’ll gladly wreak destruction on their pitiful lives.”
Capture difficulty (out of five): ⚔⚔⚔⚔⚔⚔ Male, 20 years old. Blood type O. Born December 1st. Hair color: Black. Eye color: Silver/Gold.
Favor: Summanus, God of Nocturnal Thunder, counterpart and brother of Helios. Associated with: Darkness and Night, Power, Lightning and Thunder. Profile text: A mysterious man who orchestrates the cultists' uprising for his own means. Who could he be, and what does he want? Profile text (hidden route): An exile of the kingdom of Luxor, obsessed with revenge. A dangerous man with a dark past.
Note: As soon as you chose to engage with Cyrus at the evening ball, you are locked in to either his Best or Worst route. Good luck! ⚔ Best Route So difficult, but so, so worth it. Seeing Cyrus go from a cold-hearted villain a lost, lonely man is heartbreaking, and slowly breaking down his walls is just… *cries*. And the ending scene of him happy and at peace? Chef’s kiss. ⚔ Worst Route You WILL cry at this route ending. It's just so tragic, seeing Cyrus's worst fears about himself become reality, as he burns Luxor to the ground in a deranged rage…
Trivia: ⚔ Cyrus' eye color changes depending on his emotional state. It's possible to track his affection levels and route just by paying attention to his eyes! ⚔ Cyrus is the only character to have awakened his Favor at the beginning of the story, which directly led to his exile. ⚔ It's heavily implied that Cyrus, as the Favored of Summanus, is the true heir to the throne of Luxor - Even all but confirms this in his ending dialogue: So, another favored has appeared, huh... You know, this kingdom wasn't built by Helios alone. His brother also helped to found it. His name? Well, it's lost to history now...

"Mmm... good morning, my darling. Did you sleep well? ...Me? Oh, I slept just fine. When I'm next to you, I feel at peace, so it's easy to fall asleep these days. Thank you... for that."
”After everything… you think you can save me? Hah… hahahaha. No. I’ll be the one to watch Luxor burn to the ground, as retribution for what they’ve done to me!”
