Protagonist

Grendel Jinx was bought up in a family who believed the strong should rule over the weak.  Embracing this creed early on in her life, and destined to become second in command of The Council Of The Unseen, she was destined for greatness, ruling the world with an iron fist and mercilessly crushing any dissent.

At least that's what her parents expected.

Unfortunately, reality is rather different.  Whilst Grendel is megalomaniacal, her ideas for world domination are inept at best and at worst would cost her her life.  Realising this, she aims to get the protagonist to join her, and together they would rule over everyone.

Unfortunately for her, the protagonist isn't interested in anything like that.

Grendel is a chronic kleptomaniac, with the protagonist a constant target.  The protagonist, having signed (having not reading it properly) an extremely one-side "Friendship Agreement", Grendel regards anything and everything the protagonist owns as her own- including all money and cars.

Grendel can be extremely clever and manipulative when needed.  She can speak multiple languages (Japanese being one as that she can watch her favourite anime as it's meant to be - without subtitles), and is an expert in most of hand-to-hand combat as well trained in driving or flying most vehicles

She expects to be constantly looked after by the protagonist, no matter the time of day.

Grendel does like the protagonist and will stop at nothing to force him/her to join The Unseen - even if it means putting the protagonist's life in danger.

She has no problem with blackmailing all and sundry (again, the protagonist being a frequent target), having learnt the art from her mother.

Whilst Grendel is extremely wealthy (she has financial interests in both legal and illegal entities), she is also prone to falling for financial scams.  Although she has a  $1 million weekly allowance; personal chef and a whole slew of assistants, the protagonist surmises that she is extremely lonely.

Hated both internally and externally due to her general attitude, ineptitude and position, she has few friends, and despite being class representative, she is generally scorned and bullied.  Her father, takes little interest in helping her, believing it will toughen her up.

She is afraid of aliens taking over the world before she does.  This came about from watching an age-inappropriate late-night sci-fi horror film.

Grendel's favourite TV program is the ultra-violent anime  "Dr Not-Nice Against The World", and believes it is the best program ever made.  Regularly watches marathon showings of it.

Pink, Twin Tails, Waist Length+, Blunt Bangs

Grendel Jinx

One half of "The Screaming Vocalists" black ops unit, and a person least suitable to the job.

Tries to prevent Misericordia doing anything to her victims, but usually without success.  Won't leave due to the amount of enemies that the two of them have, as well as the fact that she feels that she belongs at Misericordias side.

Terrified of the protagonist, mainly due to believing all the rumours about him, which doesn't help when they first meet.

Hebkya

Lorinda Ella is the protagonist’s secretary as well as main interrogator,  a job she relishes with sadistic glee, much to the protagonist’s annoyance, and who views all enemies as nothing but filth to be disposed of as quickly as possible,

This attitude means that Lorinda and the protagonist are frequently arguing over her actions, which frequently frustrates Lorinda, as it means it means time wasting, when she could be beating a prisoner to within an inch of his/her life.

Lorinda generally sees the protagonist as nothing more than an inept do-gooder, and was disappointed to be teamed up with such a person.

Her dislike for the protagonist extends to a controlling behaviour in the guise of “personal safety” - preventing the protagonist from going to certain locations or meeting people.  

She also tries to kill the protagonist by sending him/her off on a mission whilst withholding or ignoring information (as with Relentless Protagonist).

Whilst the protagonist can reprimand Lorinda for any misdeeds, that’s all that can be done.  Lorinda is regarded as indispensable, whilst the protagonist isn’t - a point that Lorinda likes to crow about whenever she can.

Lorinda only joined The Phoenix Custodians (and only then by illicit means) in order to seek revenge again The Council for the murder of her father during a teen skiing holiday.  She had hoped to find a boss sympathetic to her ideals, but unfortunately, ended up working for the protagonist.

Over time she is slowly and quietly gathering information that proves that the protagonist is at worst working for The Council Of The Unseen or at best, colluding with them

Lorinda Ella

One half of the "The Screaming Vocalists", a freelance black ops unit, working with Hebkya.  Not very successful, as she tends to put her love of sadism before job completion, resulting in her having to pay off whoever she works for to avoid future "problems".

Misericordia

Probably previous victim of Grendel, but never told anyone due to a fear of being ridiculed for being assaulted by a "schoolgirl"

Taxi driver (US)

Current head of "The Phoenix Custodians", and uses his position to cause problems for female staff.

Wants to personally interrogate Grendel and Katherine

The Boss

Working for the Phoenix Custodians, straight after University, she was probably chosen by The Boss more for her looks than talent.

Constantly harassed by him, being naive she regards it all as a standard working practice.
