Main characters
Lev Iathavich
An undead soldier who was rejected by his family after his death. He was given a high-ranking position in the military by his father, despite not being qualified for it. As a result, he gave orders that led to the undeath of himself and his entire unit.
He receives the task of looking for a saviour figure by the name of “Daecii” who is said to possess the power to cure death. Lev believes that being cured from his state of Undeath will force his family to accept him and that everything will go back to the way things were.
Status: Undead
Affiliation: Military, The Crown (formerly)
Traits: Naive, Melancholic, Sarcastic
Daecii
A young woman who was crafted from the dead flesh of a god.
Her sole purpose is to use her god-given powers to cure death but she has not made any progress so far and is slowly crumbling under the pressure. No one can know she is failing, so she suffers in silence.
She resides in a mansion and uses its basement to conduct experiments on dead townspeople, hoping that she is gonna have a breakthrough moment and will be able to fulfill her role as a saviour.
Status: Alive
Affiliation: The Crown
Traits: Perfectionist, Craves approval, Unstable
paavo
A hardworking member of the military who was on track to be promoted to the rank of Sergeant…Until the position was simply handed to Lev.
Paavo was born at the very root of the tree and had to work hard to get where he is. As a result, he despises people who get everything handed to them.
Status: Alive
Affiliation: Military
Traits: strong sense of justice, responsible, easily flustered
mutilator
A young girl who died during a military raid of her family home. Like many townspeople, she harbours extremely negative feelings towards the military. Unlike Lev, she does not think Undeath is anything to fear. She embraces her rotting state and openly encourages others to do the same.
In the game, her function is to be a mirror to Lev. Where Lev believes in being saved and going back to how things were, Mutilator embraces ambiguity and believes life is worth living, even if you’re rotting
Status: Undead
Alignment: Town
Traits: Easily-angered, Protective, Caring, Idealistic
Boytovich
He despises the Military and is a member of a secret organization that aims to take down the Crown.
When Mutilator lost her parents in an assassination that was carried out by a member of the military, he took her in and has become something of a big brother to her. He is fiercely loyal to Mutilator and admires her anger and drive to change things for the better.
In the game his function is to show Lev (by caring about Mutilator) that he is worthy of affection and companionship despite being dead. He exclusively appears in scenes with Mutilator.
Status: Alive
Alignment: Town
Traits: Sarcastic, Confident, Loyal
Edmund
A spy extradionaire!
A master of mystery and so very suave! No information is safe from this handsome fellow!
Or so Edmund likes to think. He is actually pretty terrible at his job. If it wasn’t for his uncanny ability to be in the right place at the right time, he never would have amounted to anything.
Through nothing but sheer luck, Edmund rose up in the ranks, becoming one of the most well-known spies on the Tree.
…Although being well-known is not a good quality for a spy to have.
Status: ???
Alignment: ??? Who knows (I do, but this is a spoiler)
Traits: Walking personification of the Dunning-Kruger effect, truly thinks he is the greatest spy ever
