- Name: Honda Yuri
- Age: 22
- Gender: Female
- Appearance: It's a natural look.
- Personality: It can be argued that Yuri is something of a difficult partner to work with for those expecting a more... professional attitude. She's overall quite laidback with regards to danger, can be terribly flirty towards her teammates, and has a self-confident satisfaction in her powers that often pushes into smugness. Even when it doesn't, the thoughtless and effortless use of them for minor tasks can irritate those who were born without them or have much more focused abilities.
- Brief Backstory: Both of Yuri's parentes were in APSU, which makes her occasional claim of having been conceived in a Ghost Zone possible, albeit one would think that it's unlikely. Whatever the exact truth, her mother was serving up until that stage, and perhaps it was inevitable that the child of two psychics would inherit psychic powers of her own--or maybe the story is true and that has something to do with it? It's not like anyone could see, or test.
Her father wound up moving into a command post when she was young and Yuri grew up confident that she would, in fact, end up joining--something almost unavoidable with a combat-viable power and contact with the suppression unit. - Esper Power: Psychokinesis. It is, arguably, the broadest description of physically interacting psychic abilities that can be observed but it lacks the inherent affinity in its various subtypes; the power, perceptive abilities, and mental strain to emulate beyond the most rudimentary and beginner applications of more specialised disciplines is far beyond Yuri's talents. What she does get is an ability unrestricted by material, or more succinctly in practice: telekinesis. The limits themselves are hazy and situationally driven, needing to factor in such things as an object's existing velocity, whether it's a matter of fighting gravity or just inertia, the number of items being affected (a particularly drastic limit), and how difficult it is to get a grasp of the target itself--if it's not a solid or liquid, that's a lot more complicated. In terms of raw mass, she can throw cars about with some strain, although Yuri's preferred party trick is actually to stop bothering with cups and plates.
- Equipment: Yuri's Neural Link Weapon is a set of shurikens, though this is more as a backup for that rare situation when there is absolutely nothing in the area which does the job more efficiently. They're light, compact, and best of all don't need to worry excessively about orientation or getting close to the enemy! Her usage of equipment is otherwise effectively minimal.
- Skills: None relevant; she likes building models, saying they're a good exercise of fine control.

- Name: Akagawa Reina
- Age: 17
- Gender: Female
- Appearance: Standing at under 152 cm, Reina is a very short girl.
- Personality: A highly temperamental girl befitting her esper power. Hotly aggressive to her enemies, and yet seemingly cold and derisive towards allies, Reina is not the easiest person to work with. She has a low tolerance for anything she sees as fooling around, and has a sharp and sarcastic tongue and tendency to mock others who she seems as foolish. However, she is also extremely dedicated to her duty as an APSU operative. Her stubborn nature is both an asset, as she will refuse to relent when assigned an objective, and yet also a problem given her habit of disagreeing with others. Even when Reina has taken a liking to someone, she is unlikely to admit to that fact and is instead liable to try and cover up any affection she feels. Still, she is highly driven and success-minded and these are undeniably assets when it comes to her performance as a combatant. Additionally, her attitude towards Phantoms is highly aggressive, and while this is perhaps an asset as well it is also something of a blindspot if she becomes too angry, her usual intelligent approach to combat taking a back seat to her emotions. She has a soft spot for small animals and enjoys sweets, and does not handle embarrassing situations well.
- Brief Backstory: Born to parents with the same esper power, it was undeniable that Reina herself would have it as well. Naturally possessing an esper power from birth, she was trained even prior to becoming part of the APSU by her father in their family's art of swordplay. This was a long-held tradition, the Akagawa family having trained its heirs in such a manner for as long as their history was recorded. Both of her parents were APSU operatives as well, and it was treated as a matter of course that Reina would be scouted to become an operative as well. It was not long before she entered formal training as a part of the agency that her parents were attacked while on a mission, her father killed and her mother rendered comatose. Shocked, the situation naturally delayed her entrance into the APSU. But soon, she reapplied with renewed vigor, determined to both follow her parents' footsteps and avenge them by killing as many phantoms as possible.
- Esper Power:
- Pyrokinesis: Reina's psychic abilities lie in the capacity to ignite and manipulate fire. Provided there is enough flammable material, either in the air or in the form of a physical object, Reina can catalyze the ignition of fire. From there, she is capable of manipulating it freely within a range of up to fifteen meters from herself. These flames can be used as projectiles, to set enemies on fire, or to envelope her Neural Link weapon in flames. She can also produce small explosions, or concentrate intense heat into a thin, cutting 'beam' of intensely hot fire capable of searing through armor and even metal if given enough time. Reina is considered among the top pyrokinetics in terms of her current capacity with her abilities.
- Equipment: Reina's Neural Link Weapon is a Type-45 Anti-Phantom Blade 'Masamune', specifically the Pyrokinesis model. A sharp blade modeled on the work of the swordsmiths of the distant past. A specific model under the general series of Anti-Phantom blades, it is equipped with an special ignitable surface allowing the blade itself to be coated in flames without need of another source of ignition. The edge of the blade is extremely sharp and effective at piercing through phantoms.
- Skills: Reina is highly capable with a sword, having been taught in her family's own school for that purpose. She is a uniquely terrible cook, to the point where it could potentially be considered and offensive skill.
Name: Kei Koizumi
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Appearance: Kei is taller than the average, being 5'7, and the outfits she wears tend to hide the toned body underneath. She has light green eyes, keeps her long black hair in a ponytail and her mouth is often seen with a soft smile. She wears a formal suit while on-duty. But on closer inspection, there are minor flaws. Her hair isn't perfectly combed, her suit has wrinkles, and Kei always seems to forget to tuck her shirt in.
Personality: Kei is a cheerful and sociable girl, a byproduct from not experiencing many hardships in her life. But as her joining the APSU would indicate, she couldn't stand idly by, especially when she has the means to protect others. She wants to try her best to help others, and treats everyone in a friendly manner. That doesn't mean she's a complete idealist, but she believes one should try as much as they can, knowing how bad things can wind up being. And despite her kind manner, she enjoys a bit of banter, although she only teases others as a response.
Brief Backstory: Born in a peaceful area with no phantom activities, Kei faced no dangers growing up. But while the people around her preferred things to stay the same, she wanted to help those in more dangerous regions. Unfortunately, that opportunity came faster than expected as her district was attacked by Phantoms. As Kei tried to help evacuate people out of the newly made Ghost Zone, she herself was attacked, which inadvertently awakened her hidden esper powers. By the time the APSU arrived, they found a badly-wounded Kei, her injuries recovering by themselves. Since then, Kei has joined the APSU by her own volition (although her doting parents say otherwise), eager to support the efforts against the phantoms.
Esper Power: Biokinesis - The ability to manipulate life itself using one's mind. While Kei hasn't grasp the full potential of her power, she's able to manifest it in several ways. One way she uses it is healing others. She can mend the wounds of others, although it requires concentration to use, as well as body contact with either her own body or the neutral link weapon she carries. The other active use is sensing other forms of life, allowing her to find phantoms and anyone else through obstacles or debris.
Additionally, Kei's own power affects her subconsciously. Her own body has slowly altered itself to become more stronger than the average, and she can regenerate wounds much faster than she can actively heal. Perhaps due to this, she's somewhat resistant to other esper powers beneficial or not, and she can damage Phantoms barehanded if need be.
Equipment: Kei's Neural Link Weapon is a shield. Due to her own body essentially being an anti-phantom weapon, Kei prefers something to protect herself with. Due to the wireless link, she can heal others through the shield itself, although it's not as potent as if she was healing them herself. Additionally, she carries a medical field kit.
Skills: To assist her abilities, Kei has gotten training as a medic. It's useful in cases where she can't concentrate on using her powers.
Name: James Wilkinson
Age: 21
Gender: Male
Appearance:
Personality: James is usually quiet and watchful but is prone to periods of high energy if something catches his attention. He jokes that doppelgangers stole his sense of humor but in reality he likes to keep a tight leash on his outward presentation. This attitude continues in his approach to combat, showing his enemy only what he wants them to see while setting them up for a situation with no escape.
He opens up more to those that he trusts, but that trust can be a difficult thing to earn. James tends to avoid people but not out of a general disinterest in them, he undervalues the quality of his own company.
Brief Backstory: James had a relatively safe upbringing well away from any phantom zones. The first manifestation of his esper power was the sudden appearance of an identical twin during his childhood, eventually growing to a handful of identical boys. Even with this oddity, his parents raised him normally but he grew quickly into a loner that tended to avoid others much of the time.
Eventually as he grew older the military expressed interest in his ability but after training it was proved that he was unable to expand his limit of doppelgangers past 5. Disappointed but determined to put him to use and possibly grow their ties with the agency, James was loaned to the APSU.
Esper Power:
Equipment: James carries several Immobilize Dagger Neural Link weapons. Left in a target, these blades will hinder or outright stop its movement. These are cheaply massed produced and do only marginal damage but their utility in combat can greatly shift the odds and make destroying the core much easier.
Skills: James enjoys photography, particularly taking photos of everyday scenes featuring the people he knows.

Esper Power:
Doppelganger: This handful of largely disposable clones are indistinguishable from Jame's real body, even to Phantoms. As such they are also no more powerful than a regular human. Instead they give him greater flexibility in combat and allowing him to use riskier strategies while keeping himself safe. Upon receiving damage that would cause the death of a natural human being the Doppels will dissolve and can be reformed almost immediately in close proximity to James.
