Sorimachi Ichizo

For as long as Sorimachi's known, he's made his path at the expense of others, stealing/murdering for a few coins here, a night's sleep there. To that alone he's devoted his wit and skill. Things like loyalty, justice, and honor never made any sense to him. Even harming those who've helped him to achieve a goal of his doesn't bear much weight on him, though he doesn't go out his way to be malicious and sadistic. Sorimachi overall is pretty polite to those he comes into contact with, and usually has a casual and chummy way of speaking. However, especially when engaged in the heat of a battle he has the tendency to cackle a lot like a weird eagle, like "kekekekekakaka!", like a madman. Overall Sorimachi is a laid-back yakuza who gets a kick out of the struggles in life, and seeing people so desperately struggle for their ideals. But even he has something he deems as evil: people who bring harm to others but don't even want to. There is no type of death he hates more than one brought by some asshole who didn't even want it. He believes if you're going to do something, especially if it's something that harms others, you better fully believe in what you're doing. And the thing is if you are the type of person he deems evil, he will stop at nothing to try to kill you. Sormachi's a disloyal dick, but also a resourceful, cunning, and sly man, who's been in the business of criminals for a long time. Sorimachi is a character from the game Fullmetal Daemon: Muramasa. "Sorimachi loves people. The farmers struggling to make it day to day, the shogunate officers growing fat off their blood, the corporate big shots with the government in their pockets, the brave rebeles who defy them all... Sorimachi loves each one. And because he loves them, he knows no greater joy than to live in their midst, exchanging banter, crossing blades, using and being used in turn. It doesn't matter who ends up face down in the mud or neck deep in a river. He loves every second. Sorimachi Ichizo hates no one. Not even Major Gargett, so sure of his own righteousness. He might think the major foolish, even mad, but Sorimachi does not hate him." But if there was one person he'd have disdain for... it'd be someone who's living their life doing the exact opposite of what they want to do in life. This is the idea that Sorimachi embodies. If you are gonna do something, do it with absolute conviction. His definition of evil is one who isn't doing what they want to and still takes away the lives of others whether good or evil, like Minato Kageaki.

Minato Kageaki

Minato Kageaki is most of the time serious, yet that can lead to him being so serious that he acts aloof and is socially unaware. He is very polite, even when talking to his enemies to find a way to solve the situation without violence. Except when it comes to killing, he is almost always very calm and levelheaded. Common Route Spoilers Ahead: Kageaki views himself as a demon undeserving of any pity or redemption for the atrocities he has committed and will continue to commit, and he believes "there are no heroes". However, he will continue to do whatever it takes to stop Ginseigo, although he won't kill unless ABSOLUTELY necessary. Ginseigo has an ability to put an "egg" inside of a tsurugi, and when this "egg" hatches, it will overtake the tsurugi and actually become another copy of Ginseigo, meaning the level of destruction and massacres that are caused by just one Ginseigo will double. This means he is forced to kill occasionally no matter what, which then of course leads to the law of balance requiring another sacrifice. Minato Kageaki is the protagonist of the visual novel Fullmetal Daemon: Muaramasa. (SPOILERS FOR THE GAME START HERE) Kageaki lives with a curse; for every person he kills which he deems evil, he is required to sacrifice another person whom he deems good, under the Law of Balance. While he's usually a good natured and righteous person, on occasions he is required to kill innocent people to maintain the law of balance. The very first "good" person he killed was actually his own mother, at the time not understanding the consequences of the Law of Balance. He pilots the cursed tsurugi Muramasa (which is what enforces the Law of Balance) in hopes to defeat the silver star Ginseigo. Ginseigo is actually piloted his sister Hikaru Minato, who was corrupted by the cursed tsurugi Ginseigo, leading her to become a near godly being who murders indiscriminately. Kageaki believes that this was his fault, and so seeks to murder her and her tsurugi Ginseigo to stop what he has caused. Furthermore, Kageaki believes he deserves death, and that his actions make him a demon, because murder is murder, no matter the circumstances. While he believes he deserves death, he can't let himself "have that release" until Ginseigo is stopped.

Kei Sakurai

Kei Sakurai appears very stoic, level-headed, and serious most of the time, and the way she speaks reflects as such. However, when it comes to Tubal Cain or anything that destroys her dream of trying to revive her loved ones, she can break down and reveal her true self, as a lonely young girl who hasn't gotten over the deaths of her two loved ones. She is not exactly a good person and is complicit in the deaths of innocent people, but her nature is not evil and she would prefer to avoid bloodshed. Interestingly, one more thing mentioned about Kei is that she somewhat laments how she never got to have a try peaceful experience just living her life, so she actually enjoyed when she had gotten a chance to experience what being a normal girl is like when she went undercover at a high school to spy on Ren Fuji. Overall her personality can be said to be somewhat self-hating, Very Headstrong, very stoic/cold, and a bit sarcastic and condescending. Kei Sakurai is a character from the visual novel Dies Irae and one of the members of the Obsidian Table. She joined because she was promised if she did, she would be able to to revive her brother Kai Sakurai, and Beatrice Kercheisen her mentor and Kai's lover. For context for Dies Irae, the Obsidian Table is attempting to revive Lord Heydrich aka Reinhard, to do this they need a lot of sacrifices to take place in a city in Japan. People like Ren Fuji try to stop the table.

Oshtor

In his "Oshtor" personality, he's very stoic, professional, courageous, and dignified. He is someone who'll use underhanded tricks to win if necessary, but can be honorable enough to engage in something like a duel if he has a respectable opponent. He speaks in a dignified and fairly formal manner, though also in a somewhat friendly tone too (although of course not really the friendly part when on the battlefield). In his "Ukon" personality he is loud, cheery, the very opposite of appearing dignified. He has a very warm and casual form of speech, and just seems the kinda guy you'd want to share a drink with. However even in his Ukon form he can act professionally when it fits the current situation. Oshtor is Yamato's general of the right, where Yamato is a fictional country in the story Utawarerumono. He's revered by many of the people of Yamato, as a stoic, composed, and compassionate leader that defends Yamato. But at the same time is another side of Oshtor. He occasionally takes on the identity "Ukon", an undercover identity he uses to help the Yamato kingdom in ways he can't as Yamato's Imperial Guard. Unlike his "Oshtor" persona, Ukon is a lot more free-spirited, speaks much more casually, less stoic and a bit more chummy/friendly, and speaks in a much more casual tone. It is said that Oshtor doesn't know which one represents the "real" him, and it's probably a mix of both. Although, it is said that his "Ukon" persona aligns more with what he admired within his own father, for how "Ukon" is more friendly with the people and not raised to a higher pedastal. Note that very few know about his alternate identity, and he tries to keep it a secret because otherwise what's the point of a secret identity?

Wilhelm Ehrenburg

Wilhelm is someone who never feels truly satisfied. No matter how much murder and fighting strong opponents he does, it never feels enough for him, unless he finds someone truly worthy to fight. So, he keeps seeking strong opponents to fight. He will respect strong opponents for showing him a good time, and respects those willing to put their lives at risk. Also very racist and kind of a womanizer.] Wilhelm has a very rough manner of speaking. He usually doesn't listen to what anyone says, and frequently calls people who he thinks less of as "Monkeys". He's also very egotistical as well. Note that even though he has a rough and informal way of speaking, he can still be articulate and formal as well when speaking to someone like Reinhard. So overall he's very indecent, pretty annoying, very murderous, able to think under pressure yet not exceptionally intelligent, and pretty selfish. To show how he always feels unsatisfied, he has a line that goes like "It's always like this. I can't get anything I want. Who's fault is it? What's the problem? What is it that I need to fix? Well fuckin hell, no point thinking on it in this fight". A character from Dies Irae, and one of the members of the Black Round Table (also called the Obsidian Round Table). A violent man who seeks out strong opponents to fight, and also speak in a very informal, rough, and egotistical way. I do respect those who are strong, and those who have a thrill for good fights. Overall is still very cruel, who will murder and do horrific acts like rape if he feel like it. Also kind of a womanizer. He was born on 1917 in Hanover, Germany. His family lived in destitute poverty, and was severely neglectful and abusive towards him. He was malnourished was forced to live in a box without a bed, hiding from his absusive father. Only coming out at night, forced to hunt for any sustenance. Bugs and Birds, he cared not what it was, as long as it had the nutrients he required. His life was nothing but hiding and hunting. An empty existence. As time passed he grew stronger, and more capable. But to did he get hungrier, and began to hunt for humans. Once his sister Helga discovered dead bodies, he killed her and his father. This bloodlust continued, only growing more and more intense. This formed into his wish to become a vampire in the night, able to more completely satiate his bloodlust.
