1. #1Neo Arcadiaselective

   Keys: Arcadia, city

   Neo Arcadia is the last remaining inhabited city following the Elf Wars. Most of Earth's human population lived there until it was destroyed by the Ragnarok cannon, it's population spreading out in the aftermath. Was founded by the legendary "X", protected by the numerous Reploids that lived there as well. Was very human-centric, putting their needs above Reploids. The Neo Arcadian army was filled with mass production Pantheon Reploids, specialized unique Reploids, and the Four Guardians. Unbeknownst to most of the populace, it was led by Copy X rather than the actual X for some time, instituting more brutal policies and acting as Weil's puppet until being killed by Zero.

2. #2Weil Forcesselective

   Keys: Weil, Forces

   The "Weil Forces" is an informal moniker for Weil's personal army. It included mass production Variant Reploids, the Einherjar Eight as lieutenants, and Craft as their commander. While they have been mostly vanquished by Zero and the Resistance, some remnants remain around Area Zero.

3. #3Resistanceselective

   Keys: Resistance

   The Resistance is a faction made up of Reploids who had escaped from Neo Arcadia, formerly fighting against the brutal policies of Copy X in a guerilla war. The only human member is Ciel, their leader. Zero was resurrected by the Resistance and served as their strongest champion for the rest of the war against Neo Arcadia. With Arcadia's fall, however, they have dedicated themselves to securing a new safe place for humans to settle.

4. #4Caravanselective

   Keys: Caravan

   Caravan, like the Resistance, are a faction of refugees who had escaped from Neo Arcadia. Unlike the Resistance, they are made up of humans who had left after Weil and Omega were exposed. Chafes with the Resistance due to Zero killing Copy X, along with the natural tension between humans and Reploids. They live out of migratory tents, having settled near the Resistance and working together in Area Zero. Led by Neige.

5. #5X, Copy Xselective

   Keys: X, Copy

   X was a legendary Maverick Hunter who fought alongside Zero during the Maverick and Elf Wars. After the bloodshed, he founded Neo Arcadia and served as their heroic leader. Soon though, he disappeared from the scene and was secretly replaced by a body double, Copy X, who had a more ruthless outlook. Copy X was killed by Zero, however, leaving Neo Arcadia without it's leader.

6. #6Four Guardiansselective

   Keys: Guardians

   The Four Guardians were a group of four Reploids based off of X's DNA, serving as his loyal commanders. Sage Harpuia commanded the Strong Air Battalion (air force), Fairy Leviathan commanded the Deep Sea Squadron (navy), Fighting Fefnir commanded the Scorched Earth Squadron (army), and Hidden Phantom commanded the Cutting Shadow Squadron (intelligence unit). Phantom was killed by Zero shortly after his revival, however the remaining three continued to fight the Resistence until they aided Zero against Omega and subsequently disappeared into the explosion. Deserting Neo Arcadia, Harpuia, Fefnir, and Leviathan now travel as nomads helping displaced humans.

7. #7Dr. Weilselective

   Keys: Weil

   Dr. Weil was a politician and head researcher before the Elf Wars, urging for global control of all Reploids through brainwashing. When his plan was shot down by X, he kicked off the Elf Wars which claimed the lives of 90% of all Reploids and 70% of all humans. For his crimes, he was given an immortal body and locked away, but eventually escaped and took control of Neo Arcadia via Copy X. Copy X's death at the hands of Zero allowed him to take full control of Neo Arcadia. Ultimately, he tried to destroy Area Zero using Ragnarok, but was foiled and killed by Zero while the two fell into Earth's atmosphere.

8. #8Omegaselective

   Keys: Omega

   Omega was the original, psychotic Zero personality, with Weil transplanting him into Zero's body from the Elf Wars. He was referred to as the "God of Destruction" and was a maniac who loved to kill, being extremely adept and using all of Zero's old techniques from the Maverick Wars, such as the Power Geyser. Ultimately killed by the remaining Guardians and Zero in a last showdown. During the Elf Wars, Omega was active in a different body featuring much heavier armor.

9. #9Zero, Legendary Reploidselective

   Keys: Zero, Legendary

   Zero, sometimes called the "Legendary Reploid", was a hero who fought alongside X way back during the Maverick Wars. He went into stasis so his body could be researched for information about the Maverick Virus, which led to the creation of Cyber Elfs. When the Elf Wars were kicked off by Weil, X brought Zero back in a replica body and the two fought valiantly to bring it to a close. Zero was put back into stasis but was lost. A century later, Ciel tracked down and revived Zero to be the Resistance's trump card. He devoted himself to the organization's survival, protecting innocents and fighting against Neo Arcadia even with Copy X at the helm wearing his old friend's face. He had awoken with amnesia, but since he never talked about his past it was left up for debate how much he eventually remembered. Zero was short spoken (with the occasional cocky quip here and there) and very action oriented, leaving the thinking to Ciel as he cut through hordes of enemies. Even up to his death on Ragnarok, stopping both it and Weil for good, he never considered himself a "Hero". Used the iconic green beam sword, the "Z-Saber".

10. #10Cielselective

    Keys: Ciel

    Ciel is the leader of the Resistance and a prodigy of a scientist despite her young age. In truth, it was her who had created Copy X, living with the guilt of necessitating the Resistance and creating a monster that hounded them for years. She led research on new Cyber Elfs and eventually secured a solution to the energy crisis in the form of the Ciel System. Had a crush on Zero and still holds out hope for him even after watching Ragnarok burn up in atmosphere.

11. #11Rouge and Joanselective

    Keys: Server, Joan, Rouge, operator, server, Trans, transfer

    Rouge and Joan are two operators working for the Resistance. Rouge is the more serious of the two with Joan being slightly livelier, though still professional. They often bicker and criticize each other about work, but together they manage the Trans Server system for the Resistance while sending operatives out into the field. The Trans Server allows people to be teleported from one place to another via satellite uplink. It requires standing on the central Transfer Platform to send people away, though can retrieve people from anywhere so long as they were sent using the same platform. The Resistance Transfer Room is stored within a large cargo truck.

12. #12Neigeselective

    Keys: Neige

    Neige is a human woman, leading the exodus Caravan. Originally, she was a reporter and frontline journalist with a penchant for getting up close and personal. This was a habit that led to her almost being killed by a Maverick she was investigating, only to be saved by Craft. The two had a romantic relationship for some time, but she was disgusted by his service to Weil, the man who she would later lead escape from. She is sharp and perceptive, still carrying her camera with her for documentation purposes. Despite her old feelings, she's thankful that Zero killed Craft to stop his vile attacks.

13. #13Craftselective

    Keys: Craft

    Craft was a militant, if honest, Reploid who served as the commander of the Einherjar Eight. He suffered from depression and was thoroughly disheartened by the state of the world, only serving Weil due to his status as leader of Neo Arcadia. His love for Niege and her rebelliousness spurred him to change Ragnarok's target at the last second, instead firing the beam into Neo Arcadia. This kills a vast number of civilians, though many still evacuate and it fails to kill Weil himself. Craft himself is then killed by Zero, who he entrusts to go on and vanquish Weil for good.

14. #14Ragnarokselective

    Keys: Ragnarok

    Ragnarok was a large space station secretly built by Weil's Neo Arcadia. It's purpose was to eradicate Area Zero via orbital laser bombardment, leaving Neo Arcadia as the only habitable area and securing Weil's grasp on world power. Instead, it destroyed Neo Arcadia under Craft's instruction and was then destroyed by Zero along with its creator. As it fell from the atmosphere, both Zero and Weil met their demise. It's descending form was visible from Earth, with many watching as it burned up in reentry.

15. #15Area Zero, Eurasia Colonyselective

    Keys: Eurasia, Area, Area Zero

    Area Zero is a lush, habitable locale that both Caravan and the Resistance are trying to settle, hoping for it to flourish into a new hub for human life. It is the location of the Eurasia Space Colony which had crashed during the Maverick Wars, it's habitation control module having nurtured the life around it over a century. It is the primary destination for most refugees following the destruction of Neo Arcadia.

16. #16Reploidselective

    Keys: android, Reploid

    Reploids are androids that have been created in the human image, capable of sapience and free will. Most sentient life on Earth are now Reploids following the Elf Wars, outnumbering humans about 2:1. They have unique personalities and can grow as people, setting them apart from Mechaniloids.

17. #17Mechaniloidselective

    Keys: Mechaniloid, mecha

    Mechaniloids are robots created for various purposes. While they are usually made in various shapes such as standard machines or animals, some are even built in a humanoid configuration. They lack the ability to perform outside of their programming and are not capable of true sentience or thought, unlike Reploids. Extremely numerous, most "wildlife" are Mechaniloids, however normal animals still very much coexist with them.

18. #18Cyber Elfselective

    Keys: Elf, Cyber

    Cyber Elves are a development made off the basis of the Sigma Virus. They take the form of pure energy in the physical world and are essentially sentient computer programs. They are capable of imbuing Reploids with various extra powers, however doing so kills the Cyber Elf. As such, they are one-time use and considered unethical to exhaust. Capable of interacting with Cyberspace, which serves as both an afterlife and parallel world of sorts for technological beings. Due to their presence as energy, humans cannot interact with or see Cyber Elves, unlike Reploids.

19. #19Maverickselective

    Keys: Maverick

    The "Maverick" term had previously been applied to Reploids or Mechaniloids who had gone berserk and become dangerous threats due to various factors such as the Maverick (or Sigma) Virus, malfunctions, or even free will, necessitating removed by Maverick Hunters (whom both X and Zero were a part of). Now, it has degraded into a blanket political term pasted on any who oppose Neo Arcadia regardless of if they are human or Reploid.

20. #20Ciel Systemselective

    Keys: energy, Ciel, System

    The Ciel System is a revolutionary new technology created by Ciel and the Resistance researchers. It essentially has solved the perpetual energy crisis, using a Cyber Elf to generate massive amounts of renewable energy beyond what the population of both humans and Reploids could possibly use. Despite Ciel wishing to share, the destruction of Neo Arcadia means only the Resistance and Caravan have access to it for now.

21. #21Sage Harpuiaselective

    Keys: Sage, Harpuia

    Harpuia was the leader of Neo Arcadia's air force (Strong Air Battalion) and was one of the Four Guardians. He served as the group's leader and was rivals with Zero, continuing to fight him despite occasionally lending a helping hand here or there off the record. For example, it was Harpuia who had delivered Zero to the Resistance base after her had been heavily damaged. For a short point, he was even the leader of Neo Arcadia before Copy X was resurrected at Weil's hands. Has a buried masochistic streak and a begrudging respect for both Zero and the Resistance. Still active as an independent mercenary.

22. #22Fighting Fefnirselective

    Keys: Fefnir, Fighting

    Fefnir was the leader of Neo Arcadia's ground forces (Scorched Earth Squadron) and one of the Four Guardians. He served as the main assault unit's commander and was a very fierce combatant, characterized by his love of fighting and stalwart patriotism for Neo Arcadia. Fefnir didn't hide his love of battle and took joy in every fight where he'd clash with Zero, viewing him as a spirited rival. Even though he was sometimes ordered to use underhanded measures, he never took pride in it and always wished to have a fair, drag out brawl. Still active as an independent mercenary.

23. #23Fairy Leviathanselective

    Keys: Leviathan, Fairy

    Leviathan was the leader of Neo Arcadia's navy (Deep Sea Squadron) and one of the Four Guardians. She served as a specialist unit who was deployed to areas where her water specialization would be advantageous. While it took her longer to realize it than Fefnir, she also enjoyed the thrill of fighting Zero and eventually developed into a one-sided crush against him. A bit of a sadist, Leviathan cared little about "retiring" other Reploids other than using it as a fun pastime. Often would watch her siblings bicker back and forth, sometimes stepping in to playfully fan the flames. Still active as an independent mercenary.

24. #24Hidden Phantomselective

    Keys: Hidden, Phantom

    Phantom was the leader of Neo Arcadia's intelligence forces (Cutting Shadow Squadron) and one of the Four Guardians. He specialized in subterfuge and reconnaissance, using his ninja abilities to blend in and infiltrate areas in addition to setting up traps. He was characteristically cautious and calm, not letting his emotions get the better of him though he was relentless in stamping out traitors. He was well respected by those under his command, but was ultimately died in his first engagement with the revived Zero during the start of his time with the Resistance. Still lingers as a Cyber Ghost, though only occasionally comes into contact with his siblings.

25. #25Einherjar Eightselective

    Keys: Eight, Einherjar

    The Einherjar Eight were a special squadron under the command of Craft, each working to destabilize and destroy Area Zero. Secretly, their mission was actually to buy time until Ragnarok could be completed. Zero had defeated every one of their members, however they left scars on both the land and among the Resistance and Caravan.
