He is the firstborn son of the Christel clan, and the first vampire to nearly defeat Extremar Thanatos during the E3 war. A serious warrior, he is the agent sent to quell threats that have the danger of disrupting the entire universe. Pretty lazy outside of fighting, and will take long naps when he isn’t on duty. Fights using the Lance of Longinus, the spear that pierced Christ as he hung on the Cross. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/693ab0ede3d90b5ce511b878/5f5b2deb-0a34-4f3c-93dc-852f638c8f8a/2+Charity+Christel.jpg Meet The Cast The Goddess of Wishes. She is the first wife of Elohim, the Most High God, and the spiritual mother of both Jehovah/Jesus and Lucifer Morningstar. While she is totally devoted to helping her Husband govern Heaven, she doesn’t have as much patience and tolerance for His sinful creations as He does. Even so, she does her best to answer the prayers of all who worship God. Some also call her the Goddess of Covenants, because she will grant impossible wishes if you do a favor for her first. Fights using a traditional knight’s sword and shield. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/693ab0ede3d90b5ce511b878/56786b18-4bc7-4007-a9d2-53bf6034a3cc/4+Summer+Christel.jpg Meet The Cast The entertainer of the Christel family, she doesn’t participate much on the front lines of the E3 war and spends her days cheering up the soldiers who serve instead. Even so, she can still handle herself if she does find herself in danger. Known as a heartbreaker, because while she has courted many boys and girls throughout the years, she still hasn’t settled down with anyone. As such, she has been rejected for several positions in Heaven she would otherwise be qualified for. Fights using luck based magic featuring the card symbols of hearts, diamonds, clubs, and spades. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/693ab0ede3d90b5ce511b878/d9f751e2-365b-4f9c-8c75-ce625e59dce5/5+Scar+Christel.jpg Meet The Cast Known as the Witch Hunter, Scar Christel is a long-ranged specialist who is deployed to eliminate high value spellcasting targets. Among the children of Cato, she is the most easygoing, and is a woman who loves a good party when she is off duty. One of the wives of the vampire Redfield Strife, she also has a special hatred for devils, and is more than happy to take any job when the forces of Hell are involved. Fights using a high caliber sniper rifle cannon, one she can wield with a single hand due to her vampire strength. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/693ab0ede3d90b5ce511b878/fc30a4c1-a66f-4d60-83fc-87a85deb432d/6+Sion+Christel.jpg Meet The Cast While she is one of the most powerful vampires in the universe, Sion Christel is one of the few demigods who has not taken a side in the E3 war. While she loves to spar, she despises killing and so is a conscientious objector. Even so, as the threat posed by Extremar grows, she finds her personal convictions challenged, with Sion wondering not just if she will need to fight, but what kind of monster she will become if she does indulge her vampire instincts. Fights using a combination of her fists and energy attacks she can fire from her hands. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/693ab0ede3d90b5ce511b878/3d508b81-05fc-4058-b7f2-b1dcb3c0d751/7+Sylvester+Jayden.jpg Meet The Cast Once seen as the most promising of the children of Cato, perhaps even capable of defeating Extremar, Sylvester was kidnapped by her twin brother and tortured for several years before she was rescued. Left physically and mentally broken, Sylvester was turned into a cyborg to save her life and restore her strength. Swearing an oath, the mercenary Sylvester Jayden vows that she will know no rest or joy until Extremar Thanatos and Roas Christel are both defeated. Fights using metal rods that she can extend and retract via holes in her cybernetic arms. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/693ab0ede3d90b5ce511b878/c6c8ffea-f903-4011-809a-b7c0387e79cb/13+Roas+Christel-Malai+Chor.png Meet The Cast Born Roas Christel, he is the twin brother of Sylvester Christel. The black sheep of House Christel, he rebelled against his family and Heaven as a teenager, defecting to serve Extremar Thanatos. During the war, he pretended to repent and invited his twin to a parlay meeting, one that turned out to be a trap. His actions caused him to not only be marked as a dangerous enemy to Heaven, but forced Extremar to cast him out from his army. Now operating his own Mercenary company, Malai Chor is considered one of the most dangerous men in the universe after Extremar Thanatos. Fights using gravity magic. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/693ab0ede3d90b5ce511b878/1cf399fc-ecc4-413b-a504-cea27a7f9f7b/8+Sherry+Christel.png Meet The Cast Known as the Ice Queen due to her dry personality, cold pragmatism, and mastery of ice magic, Sherry was next in line to become the Goddess of Money when her father Cato disappeared following the Battle of Tempus Finis. Therefore, she was appointed as Master Kolob III following the resignation of William Luck. As the Shadow of God, she serves as Elohim’s right hand and is above all other gods in Heaven. She wields her power and authority well, but despite her new position she still has the worst sense of humor in the universe. Fights using ice elemental magic. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/693ab0ede3d90b5ce511b878/cca65a44-4e74-49d2-a3c7-913b8ad83274/9+Albert+Christel.png Meet The Cast Son to both the Christel and Oda clans, Albert rejected both of his bloodlines when he decided to become a super villain. At least, that’s the cover story for this ninja who infiltrated the ranks of Extremar’s army. He is actually a double agent who serves as a spy, remaining loyal to Heaven despite the bounty on him. Even so, he finds it harder and harder to maintain his double life, especially as he is forced to commit more heinous deeds to maintain his cover as an enemy of the gods. Fights using ninja tools. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/693ab0ede3d90b5ce511b878/f75087af-80e4-4f60-931e-06a022d970ed/10+Adrian+Christel+edit.jpg Meet The Cast The only elvish son of Cato, Adrian had a troubled youth operating as the famed outlaw and thief, Gil-go-rath. When his first wife got killed in a robbery, he decided to leave his life of crime behind and repented of his misdeeds. His life didn’t calm down, and he’s had his shares of ups and downs, but now he is content living out his days as a rancher. Well, when he isn’t busy working as a bodyguard to his wife, the Queen of Sicta, and fathering the three kids he’s had across three marriages. Fights using revolvers that fire elemental bullets. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/693ab0ede3d90b5ce511b878/5300d3fc-7280-492b-a428-43df352c0cf0/11+Alvin+Christel.png Meet The Cast The smartest kid among the children of Cato, Alvin is the principal designer of the Centurion combat armor, a piece of equipment that allows even mortal humans to fight on the level of vampires. While initially a devoted servant of Heaven, his wife had an affair with one of Extremar’s lieutenants, causing him to go on a suicidal rampage out of revenge. Captured by the enemy, he vanished from the war for several decades, only to reemerge out of the blue. While loyal to Heaven once more and happily remarried, what happened during his missing years is a story he is keeping to himself for now. Fights using floating robot orbs that fire laser projectiles. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/693ab0ede3d90b5ce511b878/3c5d3ece-0116-4593-8aa7-f3990ad628b0/12+Sabrina+Christel.png Meet The Cast The youngest daughter of Cato, she is the only daughter in the Christel family to defect and serve Extremar during the E3 war. However, after visiting a possible future where Extremar won and destroyed the universe, Sabrina came back in time and returned to serving her family and Heaven. Using her knowledge of the future and Extremar’s army, Sabrina Christel was placed in charge of Heaven’s military faces towards the end of the E3 conflict. Despite her young age, her commanding presence and impressive tactical ability has earned her respect from even the oldest gods of Heaven. Fights using a calvary saber and a magical caplock pistol. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/693ab0ede3d90b5ce511b878/40284888-656c-4608-a05a-92b94c595aa8/19+Extremar+Thanatos.png Meet The Cast The main antagonist of The Mercenary’s Saga. Extremar is a younger brother of Elohim, the Most High God. Despite serving faithfully for thousands of years, the Council of Heaven refused to allow Extremar to join their ranks as God. Seeking power, Extremar left Heaven and started a rebellion, igniting what is now known as the E3 war. The war soon approaches an end, for Extremar has discovered a weapon he believes can kill even God, though he needs 13 years to charge up the ultimate weapon. Fights wielding his Twin Axe Head Sword, Divideca. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/693ab0ede3d90b5ce511b878/f9cf4f0f-7722-45b7-a4dc-11996114e808/14+Gorlon+Godur.png Meet The Cast Gorlon was once the Archangel King of Nova Daear, but after a thousand years of rule he came to despise the dark elves that he ruled over. Ordering their genocide, Gorlon was killed, stripped of his titles, and locked away in Spirit Prison. However, Extremar Thanatos offered him a chance to come back to life if he served him as a lieutenant, and so he was appointed as the Shadowlord of Anorta. Fights using a Warhammer infused with earth and fire magic. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/693ab0ede3d90b5ce511b878/c762f456-ce25-4e92-822e-662a88e81cec/25+Monkod%2C+King+Of+Hell.png Meet The Cast The first man of Anorta, Monkod decided to turn against Heaven and allied himself with Hell after being killed by his former wife Saeda. Becoming a Mandevil, a human who has fused their spirit with a devil, he used his newfound power to conquer Hell for himself. Wanting to make use of his immense power but also fearing what he would do if set loose, Extremar has given Monkod control over the planet of Anorta, which the mandevil rules through the use of Monkod’s Folly, a miasma that makes it impossible for anyone on Anorta to die as long as his curse covers the land. Has a huge scar from where Saeda struck him down. Fights using devils he summons from Hell. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/693ab0ede3d90b5ce511b878/11df92e4-4bc3-4635-9f56-1e63c15d332a/22+Nitas+Vaid.png Meet The Cast Nitas Vaid’s life was doomed the day she was born. Losing her mother in childbirth, her father proved to be emotionally unstable, switching from loving to abusive with the flip of a coin. When her father was executed by the state when she was still a child, she was kidnapped and sold into prostitution. Roas Christel eventually found and turned her into a vampire, appointing Nitas the Yellow Alligator, the Bisexual Hero of the Blades of the Revanchist. A mid-ranking member in the organization, she continues to fight with the hope of winning the love of her master, Roas. Fights using twin laser pistols and wind magic. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/693ab0ede3d90b5ce511b878/392c34d8-c363-494c-887d-9507b865643e/20+Joseph+Patrick+Banks+edit.png Meet The Cast A young boy was killed in an accident involving a VR headset when he was ten. However, instead of going to Heaven, his spirit was taken into the virtual world. Uncovering the secrets of cyberspace, the spirit of Joseph Banks fused with his brother, Patrick Banks, to create Joseph Patrick Banks. While the two brothers share control over the same body, their combined intelligence and power makes them one of the most powerful psychics in the entire universe. Fights using psychic attacks. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/693ab0ede3d90b5ce511b878/abc52f5c-dfa9-4e52-abbd-53284fceec12/23+Naum+Nikodim.png Meet The Cast A former general for the Soviet Union, he was sold out by his government to Heaven at the end of World War II due to war crimes committed during his service. Executed by the gods, his hatred for them and ferocity in war made him the perfect candidate to become a Shadowlord for Extremar Thanatos. Showing a ruthlessness that intimidates even Extremar, he has since risen to become the tactician and general commander for Extremar’s armed forces. Fights using artillery strikes and soldiers that he summons to attack for him during battle. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/693ab0ede3d90b5ce511b878/b39bbef0-76c4-46fe-9097-a10d0be218d9/21+Geon+Orden.png Meet The Cast The former head of the Ricianlor Mercenary Tribe, a dangerous group of assassins working for Extremar Thanatos. Despite his impressive skills, Geon and his tribe were wiped out by the vampire Emmiranda Nela during the E3 war. Brought back to life originally as a Shadowlord, Geon grew to resent the control Extremar Thanatos had over him. Reaching out to Heaven, Geon brokered an amnesty deal that allowed Heaven to free him from Extremar’s control. However, he still doesn’t love the gods either, so Geon Orden now rules a kingdom for all who wish to live as their own masters without worshiping any master or deity. Fights using a bow with magically created arrows. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/693ab0ede3d90b5ce511b878/16598d0a-4cbb-4c77-a073-c9dc362bed17/16+Amon+Heathcliff+edit.png Meet The Cast A former special forces agent for Heaven, he was a powerful wizard who protected England and guarded some of Heaven’s most important secrets. He eventually realized that the archangel Sigurd Severan had manipulated his memories as part of the job, and when he went to recover his true memory, Sigurd killed him. Extremar sensed an opportunity, and so Amon Heathcliff was brought back to life as the Shadowlord of England. Fights using magic infused boxing punches. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/693ab0ede3d90b5ce511b878/8545b741-cb9e-4192-b734-764dd9c7df9d/18+Mordred+Alucard.png Meet The Cast Originally the son of King Arthur and the witch Morgan Le Fey, Mordred cast a spell on himself before his final battle with his father that would allow him to reincarnate into new bodies that meet certain conditions. After several failed reincarnations, Mordred has finally been reborn in a body more powerful than his original form, for he has been reborn as the son of Dracula. Now known as Mordred Alucard, he has not only made himself a huge empire, but serves as a Shadowlord of Extremar Thanatos, the man who defeated his last incarnation before this one. Fights using the cursed great sword, Clarent. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/693ab0ede3d90b5ce511b878/9cb6f880-175e-4293-9799-d7ee7a99554c/15+Spark+Thanatos.png Meet The Cast The Robber Barons, Extremar’s private council, conducted experiments to try and clone their master should he ever die during the E3 war. Called Project Respark, the most successful subject was a demon cat girl who was removed from her mother’s womb and grown in a vat, being treated with Extremar’s blood and magical power until maturity. When she emerged, a special mind controlling gem was placed on her forehead to turn her into the Robber Baron’s perfectly obedient agent. While she can’t match Extremar’s intelligence, in large part due to her mind controlling gem making her rather ditzy, experimentation has given Spark even greater magical power than what he can wield. Fights using metal-based magic. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/693ab0ede3d90b5ce511b878/4d78826b-f80c-4c31-b5df-b5a97a7b4162/27+Cato+Christel+edit.png Meet The Cast The founder of Clan Christel, the most prestigious vampire family to fight in the E3 war. Cato Christel is the God of the Void, wielding dark magic more effectively than any other being in the universe. He fought Extremar Thanatos during the Battle of Tempus Finis, repelling the invaders from Heaven. However, doing so left him cursed, resulting in his current half-dead form. He now wanders the universe, both to undo his curse and to do his part to stop Extremar Thanatos before it is too late. Fights using darkness magic and his spiked tail. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/693ab0ede3d90b5ce511b878/42ebbf6a-a0bd-4d85-9f21-8202400cd093/29+Martha+Zhan.png Meet The Cast The daughter of Hades and Persephone, Martha Zhan was born with so much power, Extremar Thanatos cursed her with blindness. Despite her disability, she continued to train as a vampire warrior and, shortly before the Battle of Tempus Finis, managed to break her curse. Fending off Extremar during the Invasion of Heaven, Martha Zhan has been appointed as the Arch Mercenary of Heaven, the first to ever win that title. Now seen as the best hope the universe has to stop Extremar Thanatos, she goes from battle to battle across the universe, taking on impossible odds and always prevailing no matter what fate throws at her. Fights using a Combat Cross, a silver whip with spikes that fits into a cross she carries. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/693ab0ede3d90b5ce511b878/0c859278-75f6-4081-8ed9-a09db058cb2d/24+Day+Vice+edit.jpg Meet The Cast The son of William Luck and Jessica Rose, Day Vice defected with his mother once she divorced Master Kolob II. Extremar originally saw him as a bonus, but Day Vice proved so capable, he soon wound up being appointed as Day’s right hand man, the second-in-command of Extremar’s rebellion. Using the secrets shared with him by the Shadow of God, Day Vice has actually managed to kill several gods during the E3 conflict, cementing him as the universe’s greatest Sharpshooter. Fights using his magically changing rifles and teleportation magic. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/693ab0ede3d90b5ce511b878/988a64c6-c34f-4ddb-a2a5-96d8fa9f208d/28+William+Luck.png Meet The Cast Master Kolob II, and main narrator for The Mercenary’s Saga. William Luck was once seen as the golden child of Heaven, perfectly appointed to be the Shadow of God. However, following his divorce with his first wife, the damage caused by his son Day Vice, and failing to prevent the invasion of Heaven by Extremar’s forces, William was encouraged to resign from his position. To make up for his failures, he now serves as an Author of Record for Heaven, all while he carries out plans of his own so he might restore his reputation. Fights using familiar spirits, the souls of warriors who have become legendary heroes. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/693ab0ede3d90b5ce511b878/bc67499d-b4fc-4f3b-ad1b-ca6c29b25595/30+Milly+Schafer.png Meet The Cast The driving force behind The Mercenary’s Saga. Milly Schafer was the wife of Extremar Thanatos, but divorced him once she realized the evil growing in his heart. To stop the threat posed by him, Milly created the FTV virus, which turns mortal humans into vampires. Appointed Goddess of War after she married William Luck, she commanded Heaven for much of the E3 war until she seemingly killed herself under mysterious circumstances. However, Milly continues to pop up throughout the universe with no explanation, leaving both Heaven and Extremar to wonder what she is really up to.
