Name: Arturus Von Goldworth
Gender: Male
Species: Human
Agent Rank: S
Role: Defense
Element: Ether
Weapon: A holy Greatsword
The Von Goldworth family is a renowned Family business in New Eridu that usually sells jewelry… so their son Arturus was born into wealth from the start….however his parents had other plans on how to make him more useful for the family business… So from a young age he grew up more raised by Nannies than his own parents who were always out making more money… eventually as he was 14 and did star in some Commercials… trying to get his parents attention and make them proud… They did take him on a flight business trip as a reward for it… or more as in his parents' idea of keeping their son motivated to make more money for them… however their schemes didn't really go as planned… the airship they boarded got attacked by a cyber attack… and as all went in chaos in an last attempt to let their son survive it they dropped him off the ship into a hollow… he barely survived thanks to luck… and got found by some Agents in the hollows who got him back…
Here he was… almost 15… his parents both gone… Despite that he was still the Heir of the Von Goldworth enterprise… and he wanted to do something better with the money. His Nannies often let him watch TV shows and he noticed how that's to them he barely noticed the dread of the hollows… how the things he saw in the hollow… the Ethereals… despite them being scary… they also fascinated him.. He wanted to become one who could fight them… but also one that wanted to show people he could… so he asked his Manager who got him the gig to be the company's boss till he was old enough.
But working with his Manager they build up the entertainment company Saberline… born from Arturus' love of old Knight movies. As a startup to become the Protagonist he always wanted to be… the one who slays the biggest ethereals… at age 17 his first series was filmed… between hollows and New Eridu to make a sort of Romantic drama with Action to draw in several fans of his first show “King of the grail” The town thrived in the tragic story of the last Heir of the Von Goldworth family and how he is so charming as an actor… Arturus listening to things in media noticed how it did push him down from what was fun to him… how the masses didn't get him but thanks to his manager he learned how to deal with it… not to be swayed by the masses trying to push him down. He started to see the world his own way… mostly the good in everything he does… the pride in who he was and what he accomplished… living the daydream of a Hero… however this mindset made him also pretty avoidant to actual problems he had. So Arturus became who he is today… a handsome charismatic man who many people adore… but also has many scandals and critics follow after him… hailed as one of the current top actors hired for movies and shows… led by a prideful ego but sometimes oblivious to the people's bad intention him.. he may be a little spoiled but in core he still has a good heart… thinking the more Ethereals he takes out the more he can save the people… Good intentions led by a delusional mind who doesn't see the real picture…
However maybe his Fantasy driven mind is just what New Eridu needs to make it through

Birthday: 27th of July
Name: Lance Heatherville
Gender: Male
Species: Rabbit Thiren
Agent Rank: A
Role: Attack
Element: Ice
Weapon: Gun axe
Lance grew up not under the greatest circumstances… being formerly a little child on the Outer ring… mostly fending with other kids for the last bread crumbs of food… while his mom was out just living her own life not caring for her son and his father… fell victim to an accident in the oil fields… but Lance didn’t want to stay in the place… he felt that he deserved more… he often spied on other peoples places that had a TV and watched whatever those people looked at just to eventually start to build his own instrument out of some leftover junk and start to become a street musician… and to his luck he was quite successful… many lending him the money enough to save it up a little… to eventually hope to scrap enough for a trip to New Eridu… Eventually many got inspired by his singing… inspired by his ways to make their situation better themselves…. and so the kids who formerly fought with him for survival… got jobs themselves and granted him the opportunity to go there. But as he had hoped to finally realize his dream… he knew it wasn’t that easy.
Casting after casting, rejection after rejection… Lance's money ran thin even if he rented one of the cheapest little flats he could get in New Eridu… dreading if he returned to his birthplace without achieving anything… he went back onto the streets again… singing as usual, trying to get enough money to at least buy him a meal… as he ran into the one who pissed him off the most… Arturus… seeing his face plastered everywhere in the city made him particularly mad because of his reputation…. the opposite of him… a person who never had to work or strain his mind and body for anything… born rich and smothered by everything… he wanted to ignore him and just walk on but the Actor stopped him. “Didn’t you audition for this show at my studio?”
“Yeah and they rejected me, do you want to rub it in?”
“No actually.. I don’t think the role did fit you but… I know one that does…”
“I passed… I don’t like people pitying me.”
Arturus still didn’t let go of his wrist. “It wasn't a pity… you would be perfect for the role of the Antagonist… and hearing you sing is even better for that song I had in mind.”
Arturus manager handed him the business card but Lance moved on… just to come back to his flat… seeing a notice on his door… he had no other choice… even if he disliked the Actor… this was his only chance to survive again… and not disappoint the people who got him here… and so he went to the audition the next day… became part of Saberline…
He slowly rose up on even ground to the one who got him here… but also the one he will now call on his main Rival. Lance is pretty much determined to beat him one day… to become better than him to prove his own talents and how he went from nothing through hard work to towering above him. However he doesn’t have the best selfcare… hence he is barely getting any sleep and overworking himself… easily pissed off at things, quick to snap… but one thing didn’t change… his knack for music… and his dream to make it big… to prove everyone what he is capable of. Despite the defensive stance… There are ways to get him to soften up… by praise and patience.

Name: Gawyndia Driselle
Gender: Female
Species: Axolotl Thiren
Agent Rank: A
Role: Support
Element: Physical
Weapon: Umbrella with Paint bombs
Gawyndia grew up usually closed off in her room drawing pictures… She wasn’t interested much in the outside world. Despite that there was eventually one thing driving her out of the safety of her room… and that was a hollow coming closer and closer to her home, having to be evacuated with her family… despite that looking at it from afar… it had something beautiful about it to her… the colors were unlike anything she had ever seen before… and so moving into her new home after this she started to draw much more colorful drawings than just the monochrome paintings she did before… growing interested in street graffiti… however eventually someone discovered her outside while drawing on the walls of New Eridu… but not for her talents as an artist… but because she seemed perfect for a commercial they wanted to do. She wanted to refuse but her parents who were looking for her spotted her and butted in… how it was a great opportunity for her to make some new experience and get out of her house without getting caught by police because of this “Vandalism”.
Reluctantly Gawyndia agreed… mostly just to get her parents to shut about her hobby… Eventually becoming a young star featured in several commercials for different products.
She only did these gigs so her Parents wouldn’t throw her out and she still had a place to do her art in secret. But as she was 18… and had means to leave her parents she got the offer from Arturus to join his Agency… At first she wanted to refuse it but then she heard about them going into the Hollows as part of the job too… mostly the Manager brought it up and this caught her curiosity… She did ask him to get away from this cute childhood image brought upon her as she was a kid star and so… they had a deal.
Nowadays she still is pretty quiet when not on TV but pretty blunt and direct when her fellow actors get into trouble or do something wrong. She is basically throughout hollow missions the one who instead of the manager will make sure they come back in one piece. She tries to stray away from her cute Image to seem more like a mature, elegant lady… but you can see her slip in some childish behavior at times… after all she never had a normal childhood and this is the time her parents can't butt into her decision anymore. In Arturus show she is playing a role of a friend to the character he plays… one that does help him with his love interests.

Birthday: 16th of December
Name: Percy O'Donnel
Gender: Non-Binary
Species: Lion Thiren
Agent Rank: S
Role:Stun
Element: Ether
Weapon: A huge Mace known to make enemies topple
Coming from the outside of New Eridu, even further than the outer Ring, Percy was aware of the issues with the hollows pretty early… However, since they were a kid also listened a lot to their parents' words… “Stay strong… don’t fear it… no matter what happens… keep up this smile of yours.” And it were words that kept them going and believing eventually they will have some peace… despite the scary experiences of some of the hollows being this close… they were also fascinated by them… daydreaming on stories while sitting in a car for most of their young life… until eventually they finally arrived at New Eridu… finally in peace… finally able to build up a life… even if it was hard at first with their parents having to get jobs first and them saving up but eventually… They set up a simple life where Percy could just walk the streets and daydream while going to school. But even then there were people who did want to ruin their smile… who were somewhat creeped out that despite them telling about all they saw they could smile like that… Eventually Percy became slightly the outcast in their school. Except for one person… that actually said they had potential as a comedian… and should likely try to join some of the auditions in town…
Percy mostly didn’t take it seriously but thought it was a funny idea to just try… and was surprised they actually got a small role in an upcoming show playing a comic relief… because of this stunt they actually got more accepted in school… even if it was for the wrong reasons but… Percy didn’t know better.. They never had friends before… Many just basked in their short fame just to drop them again…
But they never lost their first friend who just believed in them… who encouraged them… however eventually their friend grew sick and couldn’t really guide them much…
Percy was lost on what to do… eventually their daydreams and lack of paying attention got them too close to a Hollow before they got stopped by Pubsec officers… Just to see someone come out they recognized… an actor they have seen a lot on TV before… Arturus who saw them looked at them but also recognized the face from their little appearance… Percy and Arturus started chatting… mostly on how the Lion Thiren wanted to help their sick friend with Medicine money… hoping to see them recover… Arturus was touched by the concern Percy had for their only friend and offered them a space in their show… and so Percy joined Saberline as well… Even if they are a bit of an airhead, they do match some of the Leaders Delulu but also often have to be watched out for by Gawyndia… Still they are one that always pushes up the group when they feel down… and does seem a bit too eager to take out Ethereals… having fun swinging their mace. They are the newest member so out of the 4 they are still the rookie.
