Characters

A reborn demon and the architect of the Napoleonic Wars — now haunted by the kindness of the soul she consumed, and fighting to keep her darkness at bay.

Born into a dynasty he never chose, groomed from birth by a woman who dismantled his dreams before he was old enough to understand she was doing it — he has everything, controls nothing, and is trying to figure out what freedom actually looks like from inside a gilded cage.

At seventeen, she's already one of the most dangerous hackers alive — she brought down a government conspiracy in five minutes flat, then swallowed a bottle of sleeping pills because she had nothing left to do. Murasame kicked the door in. Now she doesn't leave the room, but at least she's not alone.

A boy with no past and no explanation — dropped off in New York's Chinatown by a man who vanished, and now dragged into a world of demons he never knew existed.

An angel who descended into a young nun's body, sent by the Church to spy on the GIA from within — bound by covenant to Archangel Michael, and unable to refuse a single one of his commands.

The small demon living inside Moming's memory — she's the projection of Lilith, the first human in history.

Born under a storm that never stopped, raised in a room with no windows, and told her whole life that her existence was a curse — until a stranger in the rain told her she was the protagonist of his story instead.

Born on the night Hong Kong was handed back, raised in the city's narrowest streets, and haunted by a rainy night when something in a black suit walked out of the dark and took his father away — he has been trying to get back to that moment ever since.

Former K-pop trainee turned elite SWAT officer turned GIA agent — she gave up her idol dream the day her father was killed in the line of duty, and has been spending her paychecks the moment they land ever since, because she knows better than anyone that tomorrow isn't guaranteed.

Once a promising young operative, he lost everything — including seventeen years of his life — in the Narvik Incident. Now he runs a one-man intelligence operation from a grease-stained laptop, carries a dead woman's soul on a USB drive, and tells anyone who'll listen that he spent last summer in Cuba.

He crawled out of the Somme with opium in his blood and ghosts in his eyes, watched his best friend choose the wrong side of history, and spent the next century dismantling the institution that made both of them. He drinks tea now. It helps, somewhat.

Mild-mannered operative by day, serial killer by night — he grew up believing justice was real, spent years watching it fail, and now he decided stop violence with violence, and become a ruthless killer.
