   Jun Mitamura was a city police officer based in Yokohama and a member of the gifted underground syndicate V.

   Mitamura appeared young and wore a city police uniform, equipped with a standard-issue black revolver.

   Initially, Mitamura acted brightly and amiably, visibly showing fascination, intrigue, and later pride about Ranpo Edogawa being a gifted detective who could help the police in their endeavors. This was, however, seemingly part of his charismatic charade as an operative for V. Nevertheless, even when found out by Ranpo as a member of V, Mitamura retained his well-mannered demeanor towards the boy. Mitamura was quite loyal to V and their objective of ridding the country of fellow ability users. Among V, he claimed to be considerably one of the negotiators compared to the others who would resort to violence during interrogations. As such, Mitamura was patient to a fault and knew better to hold back his emotions, snapping in anger only when provoked.

   As a member of V, an organization that consisted of ability users, it is highly possible, albeit never confirmed, that Mitamura was also an ability user.

   Intelligence: Mitamura was elusive and resourceful to a degree, as he was able to abduct Natsume using a theater rug and organic solvent while taking advantage of the theater's panic-stricken chaos at the time. Furthermore, he was able to operate as a member of the syndicate V while simultaneously serving as a uniformed police officer.

   Marksmanship: Though his marksmanship skills were not shown, Mitamura was possibly knowledgeable with using a firearm, particularly his city police-issued revolver.

   At an unknown point in time, Mitamura began serving as a city police officer and operating underground for V.

   The World refers to both the single reality that exists outside the Book and the infinite potential worlds that are inside the Book. Currently, the worlds' fragments are forced to be connected due to Osamu Dazai using his Ability to create a point of Singularity. Each potential world holds the same weight as other worlds. There are currently two known worlds, the original world and the BEAST world. In the BEAST world, the Book is its origin more or less and a version of the Book also exists inside this world. However, orders from the original world can rewrite or destroy this world.

   The Book is a supernatural book desired by different parties of ability users. Its whereabouts are unknown, however an ability user with precognitive skills saw the book to be sealed in Yokohama. A page stolen from the Book is currently in the possession of Kamui.

   It is a novel with all of its pages being blank and where anything written inside becomes the truth. According to Fitzgerald, only one copy of the Book exists and it is impervious to any kind of flame or special skill. According to Taneda, a page was once taken out of it for research purposes. The page also works just as well as the full Book that it came from. However, it has its own restrictions and abilities: The text written in it must maintain a consistent causal relationship with itself; It demands narrative consistency. As such, one cannot simply write "Once upon a time, humanity died out"; What is written in the Book or page must follow a narrative of a story. In accordance with restriction number 2, anyone using the page must make a number of events occur with their own efforts in order to follow the flow of the narrative. Only then would certain desired events written in the Book or page become reality; and a page takes effect when one side of it is filled with writing.

   BEAST: According to BEAST Osamu Dazai, the Book is more or less the origin of the Beast world. In the Book, one will find an infinite number of potential worlds that can branch out into an infinite number of different paths depending on the choices made and conditions set. The moment something is written on a page in the Book, a world tailored to what was written is "summoned" in which the potential world inside the Book and the real world change places. Hence, the term "world" refers to both single physical reality that exists outside the Book and the infinite possible worlds that are tucked away inside the Book. In this world, orders from the outside can rewrite this world or even destroy it.

   Very little is known of the Book. Santōka Taneda suggested that it was part of an unknown ability user's power, but Ranpo Edogawa later refuted this, saying it was created by “something beyond our abilities.” It is known that Sigma was created using the Book three years ago.

   Ability is a special force possessed by many individuals throughout the world. A person who possesses an Ability is called an Ability User. It is said that a person can have no more than one Ability. An Ability User may be conscious of and can control their Ability, though in some cases, an Ability may be uncontrollable and activated automatically. Moreover, a person may be an Ability user since birth or could manifest such power in later life. In some cases, it is said that Abilities are considered as a curse rather than a blessing to their users. An Ability is also powered by their user's soul and will as their energy source. Therefore, when an Ability User dies, their Ability is eviscerated. The only exception to this are Singularities which are capable of outlasting their user(s) infinitely as massive energy.

   The Great War: Before the Great War, samurai were once unable to adapt to the rise in guns and rifles, which led them to perish. Following such defeat, a Great War emerged, during which tanks and gun turrets were proven ineffective. Instead, entire forces of countries stampeding through enemy countries ultimately crushed opponents. Moreover, naval battles were lost against advanced aircraft weapons that ultimately destroyed nautical forces. After this war, the Great War surfaced, which acknowledged Ability Users as the main forces of destruction and weapons in battles. European powers recognized the efficiency of Ability Users in the fight and deployed them to the main battlefield. A group of highly skilled Ability Users known as the Transcendents were dispatched, but they soon clashed and produced even more casualties and war damages. Furthermore, sometime during the end of the war, an extinction weapon known as the Shell was developed by English engineers including H. G. Wells by intentionally creating a Singularity and weaponize it. Concomitantly, the Japanese military likewise saw Ability Users' importance and power during the war. As a result, military physician Ōgai Mori submitted the Immortal Regiment plan to the Emperor, which focused on creating an infantry that could survive countless injuries throughout the war. This scheme primarily used the healing ability of Akiko Yosano, who was enlisted by Mori. It came to fruition in Tokoyami Island located in the Pacific Ocean, where close and physical combats were mainly fought due to electromagnetic interference of northern lights that rendered electronic devices useless. Initially successful, Yosano later stopped using her Ability after becoming distraught with the inhumane events unfolding during the war, more so because the troops blamed her for dragging the war and prolonging their agony in fighting only to be constantly attacked and injured by enemy forces. Sometime during the war, upon the Japanese government's orders, Ōchi Fukuchi entered the battlefield, who was known for his outstanding power due to his Ability. As such, he engaged in brutal battles and tortured soldiers and civilians alike, among others.

   Post-War: The Great War later ended partly due to the efforts of Ability Users. However, as a result, a great number of Ability Users who were engaged in legal professions had decreased. Majority of them either secluded themselves from society or affiliated themselves with underworld organizations. During such period, the Japanese government refused to admit the existence of Ability Users to the public, regarded by society as mere rumors or lores. Though it was not forbidden at the time to expose the reality of such entities, there was a dark shadow cast over their existence. Nonetheless, upon being discovered that a proportion of Ability Users possessed highly lethal powers, the government created the Special Division for Unusual Powers, a department comprising of Ability Users responsible for secretly monitoring dangerous Ability Users throughout the country. Moreover, there was a certain group of special Ability Users regarded as the most important individuals in Yokohama who received the government's secret protection referred to as the Witness Protection Program. Such figures were believed to have possessed certain secrets that had to do with the foundation of the country. As such, they were targeted by countless enemies, including foreign military parties, local criminal organizations, and the like. Among the aforementioned organization is Sōseki Natsume, who devised the Tripartite Framework. In this framework that aimed to preserve the balance of peace and order in Yokohama, the Special Division and the Military Police would oversee and handle Ability-related affairs during the daytime, the Port Mafia at night, and the Armed Detective Agency in the twilight. When this plan was finally realized, Natsume retired shortly after. In the present era, Ability Users are not unknown in the society, though not entirely recognized mostly due to the intervention of the Special Division and other government departments. Moreover, albeit majority of Ability-related cases are monitored to be criminal in nature, there are also organizations allowed by the government in utilizing Abilities legally, such as the Yokohama-based Armed Detective Agency comprised of gifted detectives who take on dangerous cases that are too much for the military and the police to handle.

   Singularity: Singularity occurs when two Abilities cancel each other out and create something different from either skill. As studied by the Special Division, the Singularity phenomenon develops into an unpredictable direction due to a resultant loss of control over Abilities. In most cases, one of the Abilities is expected to win over the other. It is also possible albeit rarely where neither party wins, or, as researched by England, where two Abilities cause a reciprocal reaction and generate a greater effect in scope compared to when activated individually. In other words, Singularities occured when 2 abilities crash into each other in such a way that they create an infinite paradox. For example, when 2 users with the ability to see into the future for 5 seconds their abilities created an endless paradox. One would see the other attacking them and would adjust, while the other would see the adjustment and adjust themselves etc... however, at the same time none of the forseen events would have happened yet as they were still just visions of future creating an endless cycle. N further explained that Singularities are the only form of an Ability that is capable of existing infinitely and outlasting their users as mass energy. Though Singularities typically occur when two or more compatible Abilities clash, there is in fact another way for it to occur. The second way is for certain Ability Users to use their Ability on themselves and multiply that use repeatedly until a Singularity occurs. However, the risk to this is the user being devoured by their own Ability due to the massive amount of energy this Singularity produces. During the War, Germany managed to weaponize Singularities and shared this research with their allies France and Japan who used the research to create man-made sentient Singularities that produced Paul Verlaine and Chūya Nakahara.

   Meursault is a European detention facility for ability-user criminals. The existence of the place itself is unknown. Only the top brass of the European government knows its exact location. To prevent escapes from the Meursault prison, inmates are implanted with a device that monitors their vitals.

   Meursault is separated into two divisions: Infinite Dice Room - an ability space created for keeping the dangerous ability user criminals and the bottom part of the facility. Regular Prison - the prison above the Infinite Dice Room. Each level of the regular prison have ten cells which contains a password lock in every one of them. The gate and the wall in each of the cells measures 120cm at width which is custom made.

   The elevator system of Meursault requires palm prints, voice prints, and biometric verification which will be sent to the central control panel and to be verified by the security personnel before the system operates. Heavily armored guards who are equipped with weapons verified biometrically patrol each level and have the permission to shoot without warning. Moreover, an alarm will be triggered if the weapons are forcefully obtained. Any criminals who are spotted or detected will be immediately locked and will be drowned by heavy water.

Because of this, he no longer had control of the whale.

   Old World is an old pool hall located in Yokohama. It is situated in a brick building located in a residential area of town far from trains and vehicles, where a sign is placed in front that reads "Oʟᴅ Wᴏʀʟᴅ" in faded letters. Aside from pool tables, it houses a jukebox and serves alcoholic beverages, and neon lights are lit at night during its operating hours. This particular pool hall was also the usual place of the Port Mafia's Flags, where they used to meet with one another even before it would open to the public.

   The Orphanage is where Atsushi grew up.

   The Port Mafia Base consists of five tall, black buildings in the center of Yokohama. The main building stands at the forefront of the other four, looking over the entire city. The headquarters have been active since over eight years ago, formerly under the previous boss' leadership. Since Ōgai Mori murdered him, all buildings are under his ownership. The five buildings stand in the center of Yokohama, noticeable from a considerable distance due to their height and location. Notable landmarks nearby include Cosmo World which houses the famous Ferris wheel the Cosmo Clock 21 and the InterContinental Building. All five buildings are tall and black, similar in height, but the main one being the most prominent and tallest of them all. It's about forty stories tall. It contains a glass elevator that one can see the entire city from.

   Mori's Office: Mori's office likely stands on the topmost floor. Large doors lead up to it. Inside, it is a vast room with much empty space, whilst in the back Mori lines the walls with shelves of books and his desk and chair. Because of the clothes seen sprawled around, it is likely Mori has a stash of Elise's wardrobe in the room as well. Generally, the room is well-lit by natural light thanks to large windows. There are also automated shutters that encase the room in near-complete darkness.

There is also a jukebox playing jazz music from the Prohibition era, a roulette board, and a blackjack table.

   Suribachi City is a Yokohama foreign settlement. It is a city built within a crater which is a result of a huge explosion years prior. The area is mostly composed of small settlements. It bordered the Yokohama Settlement which is considered a conflict zone. Moreover, anyone can build their residence at the Suribachi City regardless of legality. As a result, society's outcasts or people with poor status created huts, built stairs, and put up electrical wires in the area. It naturally became a prime estate for illegal organizations including the Port Mafia since the city is outside of authorities' radars. A certain giant explosion in the area caused a huge crater at its center. As a result of this, people started building settlements in the area.

   Tsurumi River is where Atsushi finds himself starving in Yokohama.

   Yokohama, occasionally referred to as the Yokohama Settlement or the city of Yokohama, is a city in the Kantō region and is considered as Japan's most prominent port city. It is the primary setting of the Bungo Stray Dogs series and its related media. It is a port city with a mixture of modern buildings and nostalgic buildings, but since the end of the war, allied-affiliated warlords have flown in and have built up an autonomous region by shaking extraterritorial powers. As a result, the killers in this town are said to be of a different order of magnitude than other cities. There are various dark organizations and foreign illegal capital, with the Port Mafia being said to take root in all parts of the town's politics and economy. It is also said that a "book" has been sealed somewhere in the city.

   The Great War refers to an intense war that took place in Europe, the stronghold of powerful Ability users, namely the Transcendents and Dame Agatha Christie's Order of the Clock Tower. It ended 14 years ago and expanded influence through countries outside of Europe.

   Warring parties later agreed to a ceasefire, but Mimic, one of the war's participants, received falsified orders from their own country to attack a walled city. This attack violated the ceasefire, resulting in Mimic's expulsion from their homeland, later by the Order of the Clock Tower. At the end of the Great War, France, Germany, and England signed the peace treaty and created Standard Island as a symbol of peace. The reason for this peace treaty was because of The Seven Traitors, who each had kidnapped the most promising leaders of each nation. They had persuaded, threatened, and nearly brainwashed each leader until they eventually agreed and made the peace treaty. It is still unknown what part Japan played in the war, however it is known that a few known people did participate. Mori and Yosano were part of the medical team that oversaw the treatment of the troops who were stationed on Tokoyami Island. During this war, Mori utilized Yosano's Ability for his "Defense Force, 356th Infantry Division" to prove to the upper brass of the military that Abilities should be used as weapons for war, but failed after Yosano suffered a mental break down after witnessing trauma from watching several soldiers, including Tachihara's brother, died due to the combined trauma of war and the repeated use of her healing Ability. She was arrested shortly afterward for trying to blow up the army ship they were on with explosives. Around the same time, a lab in Germany was researching Abilities and attempted to create a Singularity without multiple ability users. The project entailed the creation of man-made Ability users, artificial humans implanted with Abilities resulting in them being able to manipulate gravity. This research was shared with Japan and France who were allied with Germany in the war, and France used it to create an artificial human known as Paul Verlaine. In Japan, the military illegally abducted a child known as Chūya Nakahara and performed experiments, using his genetic material to create a clone which who was altered and made to contain an entity called 'Arahabaki'. However, Verlaine and his partner, Arthur Rimbaud, had become spies by this point and infiltrated the facility the clone- also known as Chūya Nakahara- held in but had a disagreement over what to do with the boy, leading to a fight between the two and culminating in Chūya's release and the subsequent destruction of the facility and surrounding area, which would later become Suribachi City. Elsewhere, Hunting Dogs commander Ōchi Fukuchi also participated in the war at some point as a soldier of the Japanese military and also experienced horrendous trauma in combat and the loss of the war itself. Fukuzawa did not participate in the war, however, he was hired by the Japanese government to assassinate a certain number of military war hawk bureaucrats and foreign correspondents who wished to continue moving the frontlines forward, thus bringing Japan's involvement in the war to an end. The Hunting Dogs project is suspected to take place after the war.

   The Arahabaki Incident or the Impostor Predecessor Incident refers to the incident of the Port Mafia's deceased predecessor appearing in Suribachi City near Yokohama, a plot made by Arthur Rimbaud to lure out the true Arahabaki, Chūya Nakahara. The root of the incident happened eight years ago at the end of the war, where a former national defense force was secretly researching an artificial ability-derived life-form known as Arahabaki.

   During the research of Arahabaki, Rimbaud and Paul Verlaine, two European agents, plotted to steal Arahabaki in a Japanese military facility as ordered by France and managed to successfully steal it, specifically Chūya who served as Arahabaki's host. However, sympathizing for the boy as an ability-derived life-form himself, Verlaine betrayed and shot Rimbaud from behind, though to little avail. This led to a vicious fight between the two, which caused a light from their battle to scorch the night sky and was eventually followed by an explosion in the area. During the battle, Rimbaud was forced to kill Verlaine, and the large battle caught the attention of military's tracking unit. During Rimbaud's moments of being surrounded by the military, he attempted to absorb Arahabaki, which backfired on him and ended up breaking its seal. The breaking of Arahabaki's seal led to it unleashing its true powers that surpassed human comprehension. Arahabaki showed its true form, covered in black flames, and destroyed everything in the area: the military, the research facility where it was contained, and the surrounding land which created Suribachi City. Having failed to absorb the true Arahabaki, Rimbaud spent the following years to slowly regain his memories and abilities. As such, he planned to trap and lure out the true Arahabaki.

   Shortly after Ōgai Mori assumes the role of Mafia boss after killing his predecessor, rumors of the latter's reappearance in Suribachi City have spread. He then sends Osamu Dazai to investigate the rumors. Accompanied by Ryūrō Hirotsu, Dazai finds three eyewitnesses confirming the rumors. He is later accosted by Chūya and demands to tell him what they know about Arahabaki. Soon after, the previous boss appears in an explosion of black flames, marking it as his fourth alleged reappearance. At the Mafia headquarters, Mori soon fills in Dazai and Chūya about the previous boss' earlier emergence in the Mafia's nearly-impregnable vault. The previous boss declared having been summoned back from hell by the beast Arahabaki and threatened to enact his revenge on Mori. The latter then sends in the two to continue the investigation, leading them to seek out Mafia sub-executive Randō, who was said to have survived an explosion by the previous boss a week prior. Dazai and Chūya find Randō's mansion in black flames due to an explosion caused by Gelhart Security Service forces. After Chūya repels them, Dazai surmises that the black explosion has been staged and is likely to fuel rumors of the previous boss attacking Randō, a supporter of Mori. After listening to Randō's account about surviving the attack of Arahabaki itself rather than the previous boss a week ago, Dazai later names Randō as the perpetrator who started the rumors, noticing that Randō's testimony was about the very first Arahabaki sighting before Suribachi City was even created and therefore knows about it. Chūya also eventually pinpoints Randō as the culprit and reveals himself to be Arahabaki. Randō, introducing himself as Arthur Rimbaud, summons the previous boss using his ability and battles Chūya and Dazai, respectively, in an attempt to kill Chūya. In the end, however, the two collaborate into defeating Rimbaud, leading to his demise and thereby purging the rumors of the previous boss' reappearance for good. After his betrayal to the Mafia, Randō is branded as the solo perpetrator behind the entire incident. As common Mafia procedure, his house was burned down, and his possessions were thrown into the ocean. His body was also left exposed to the elements for a week before being buried in a rural public cemetery. The details of the Arahabaki Incident are later documented by Ango Sakaguchi in an exclusive report. Furthermore, the incident catches the attention of Verlaine following Rimbaud's death and comes to Japan seeking Chūya.

   The Armed Detective Agency is an ability user organization. The Agency was founded over a decade ago by Yukichi Fukuzawa after his encounter with a certain ability user named Ranpo Edogawa.

   The members are: Leader: Yukichi Fukuzawa; Members: Akiko Yosano, Atsushi Nakajima, Doppo Kunikida, Jun'ichirō Tanizaki, Kenji Miyazawa, Kyōka Izumi, Osamu Dazai, Ranpo Edogawa, Naomi Tanizaki, and Kirako Haruno.

   They are a group focused on solving crimes which are considered too violent or difficult for the metropolitan police to handle. Often, these crimes are of a supernatural origin. Nearly all of the detectives within the company have their own special powers known as abilities. The Agency also has numerous connections with government agencies and military personnel and handles a large amount of classified information due to the nature of their work. The Agency's licensed staff are granted police-like authority. Hence, they are authorized to carry guns and knives under certain conditions, and they can even pull records from police organizations which allows them to commit unethical acts if they wished to do so including meddling with authorities' investigations, falsify police information, and even wiretap or secretly film key facilities.

   The Agency has an entrance exam for new employees, to assess if they possess qualities that make them worthy to join the Agency. The test usually consists of their qualities as a detective and their emotions of whether they are willing to risk their lives to save people. In order to join the Agency, the candidate must take a test that evaluates their righteousness, prowess, wisdom, morality and genuineness of spirit. The test supervisor watches the entrant's moves and determines whether they are a good fit to the Agency. As the current president of the Agency is Yukichi Fukuzawa, with all official members being affected by his ability, All Men Are Equal.

   The Special Division for Unusual Powers is a secret service under the Ministry of Home Affairs, which is in charge of maintaining national security regarding Ability-related cases by monitoring and regulating gifted individuals and organizations throughout Japan. In times of activities caused by criminal entities, the Special Division manages such incidents through supervising the concerned parties and through cover-ups to prevent the public from learning about the ability-related cases as much as possible. Though the general approach of the Special Division is to not terminate hostile ability users, they may nonetheless dispose them if deemed necessary. The members are: Leader: Santōka Taneda: Members: Ango Sakaguchi, Mizuki Tsujimura, Yachiyo Murakoso, and Takuichi Aoki.

   Despite being a secret service, the Special Division has vast influence in Japan as a government agency with various connections and networks, most closely with the military police. Generally, the Special Division utilizes their gifted agents as much as possible to catch gifted criminals. For instance, Taneda was known to have buried countless of villainous ability users by understanding their powers with his own ability. Aside from their abilities, Special Division agents are also armed with their preferred weapon. Though the most common choice is a pistol or handgun, some members opt for other weapons such as a katana. Using their jurisdiction and power, the Special Division makes it their mission to provide peace to the general populace at any cost, even at the cost of their own members' and other good people's lives. In dire cases, if necessary, they must bend or even break the law for the sake of preserving peace, an example of which is by having to eliminate extremely antagonistic adversaries that endanger Yokohama like the Decay of the Angel rather than their usual arrest and indictment procedure. As one of the three constituents in Natsume's Tripartite Framework, the Special Division has collaborative ties with both the Armed Detective Agency and the Port Mafia in Yokohama. As such, the Special Division cooperates with and occasionally seeks aid from the two gifted organizations upon several instances where and when needed, including investigating the serial suicides of ability users and, by extension, eliminating Tatsuhiko Shibusawa; suppressing the Dragon made incarnate during the aforementioned incident; and arresting the Russian leader of an underground organization, Fyodor Dostoevsky. Though they have comparatively wide influence and authority, the Special Division ensures and maintains balance with other government departments and secret societies such as the North American gifted organization, the Guild. For instance, the Special Division cannot make drastic actions that might cause tension with the Guild despite the latter's criminal activities during their arrival in Yokohama. The Special Division also has connections with foreign gifted organizations like the English Order of the Clock Tower. One of the responsibilities and powers of the Special Division is to issue the skilled business permit, a certification that gives eligibility and legality to a group's activities and business as a gifted organization. Due to its considerable importance and value, it cannot be acquired merely through money, mere influence, and sheer merits. Under normal circumstances, the Special Division issues the special permit with the help or endorsement of eminent figures on the interested party. For example, the Agency was able to acquire a skilled business permit through the backing of Sōseki Natsume, an esteemed and recognized individual in Yokohama. Thus far, the Agency and the Port Mafia are two organizations known to possess skilled business permits. In their pursuit of preserving peace for the people of the country, the Special Division mostly manages ability-related incidents through cover-ups, regardless of how exclusive or extensive the incident is. For example, with their capability, the Special Division wrote an investigative report to help lessen Kyōka Izumi's crimes of killing 35 people. Specifically, it mentions how she has inherited the ability of her mother and how her parents were affiliated with the government before their deaths, as their records were erased by the government due to their line of work as professional assassins. Another case was the Special Division's attempt of covering up the Guild incident, which ended with the gigantic airship Moby Dick sinking in Yokohama waters. However, due to its large-scale impact and the numerous eyewitnesses at the time of sinking, the Special Division was unable to completely cover up the incident. A unique case covered up by the Special Division, specifically by Ango for relatively personal reasons, was Dazai's record of crimes during his time as a mafia executive. This was made possible upon employing the help of the Seventh Agency, a criminal enterprise created by the government that specializes in political cover-ups and the like. From their monitoring endeavors, the Special Division keeps a watchlist of dangerous ability users under the constant surveillance of their agents. However, extremely dangerous ability users managed by the Special Division may be killed in some cases. The highest-ranked extremely ability user in the list is Yukito Ayatsuji, also known as the "Homicide Detective", for his dangerous Ability of causing accidental yet guaranteed deaths of criminals. They are also known to have a jurisdiction and authority that Ministry of Justice cannot even interfere.

   The Special Division is under the direct jurisdiction of the Home of Ministry Affairs. The organization is headed by Santōka Taneda, and Ango serves as the Special Division's assistant counselor; the two of them belong to the organization's few elites as part of their policy. The Special Division comprises the country's most high-ranking ability users, some of whom accompany elite officials in certain instances. The Special Forces act as the Special Division's implementation forces, which specialize on tactical and field operations. Assisting the Special Forces is a certain monitoring team, though it eponymously monitors various ability-related activities and users in most cases. The Special Division also has regularly scheduled services that carry official documents and investigative reports in armed transport vehicles.

   Post-War Era: In the midst of the post-Great War chaos, Sōseki Natsume devised the Tripartite Framework, a plan that aims to preserve the balance of peace and order in Yokohama. The Special Division and the military police were tapped to oversee and handle affairs during the daytime, the Port Mafia at night, and the Armed Detective Agency in the twilight. When this plan came to fruition, Natsume retired shortly after.

   Arahabaki Incident: In the aftermath of the Arahabaki incident at least seven years ago, the Special Division has filed a confidential report surrounding its full story and the details of activities from the Port Mafia's gifted users during the incident. The report was written by Ango Sakaguchi and is kept under the jurisdiction of the Home of Ministry Affairs and the Ninth Confidential Resource Office. It is also hinted that the Special Division has investigated and written reports on the background and identity of Arthur Rimbaud, the conspiracy about the research facility that disappeared, and the actions undertaken by Osamu Dazai and Chūya Nakahara to uncover such information. Furthermore, a supplementary report to the Arahabaki incident report has been designated as a top-secret document, whose details are thus far undisclosed.

   Dragon's Head Conflict: Six years ago, the dispute that pitted various underground organizations against one another known as the Dragon's Head Conflict plunged Yokohama into a deadly battlefield. As the conflict raged on for at least 80 days, the Special Division sent Tatsuhiko Shibusawa in hopes of ending the conflict with his ability. To note, Ango opposed the idea of employing Shibusawa, but the higher echelons disregarded his claim and proceeded to hire Shibusawa. However, Shibusawa did not have any intention of maintaining peace whatsoever and produced even more deaths along the way. In the end, Dazai and Chūya of the Port Mafia settled the dispute themselves, which garnered them the infamous moniker of Twin Dark. In the aftermath of the conflict, the Special Division covered up the deaths produced by Shibusawa overseas and granted him protection, as they recognized him to be an asset who can stand up against a possible nationwide gifted takeover in the future.

   Mimic Incident: At least four years ago, the Special Division assigned Ango to infiltrate the illegally-acting Port Mafia to monitor and report their movements. Subsequently, mafia leader Ōgai Mori thought of a way to acquire a skilled business permit that shall recognize their violent operations to be legal. While Ango was an intelligence agent in the mafia, he once travelled to Europe to gather information, upon which Mori chose to use the guerrilla organization Mimic, which he deemed to be an adversary with the highest potential that can lead him to obtain the permit the mafia needed. In this regard, Mori tasked Ango to get in contact with Mimic, which later left Europe and illegally migrated to Japan with the mafia's assistance. Thereafter, as the guerrilla group arrived in Japan, Ango infiltrated Mimic as a mafia member and passed insider information on the organization to the mafia, though Ango also passed such knowledge to the Special Division as a triple agent. The Special Division thought to pit Mimic and the mafia – two dangerous, illegal organizations – against each other to kill two birds interfering with the safety of Yokohama with one stone. Hence, they manipulated matters by having Ango leak mafia information to Mimic, which sent the mafia to engage in combat with Mimic's onslaughts on the mafia's operations and territorial bases. During this time, the conflict between Mimic and the mafia was established. When Ango returned to his primary affiliation, he facilitated a confidential meeting between Mori and the Special Division director, Santōka Taneda. With Mimic and the mafia disrupting Yokohama's peace and order, Taneda requested the mafia to exterminate Mimic and, in exchange, issued Mori with the skilled business permit, henceforth acknowledging the mafia's once illegal modi operandi to be licit. Eventually, Sakunosuke Oda from the mafia single-handedly eliminated the members and leader of Mimic, André Gide, in a death battle.

   The Seventh Agency is the government's own crime syndicate. They are responsible for hiding scandals, political crimes cover-ups, illegal tactics, and many more things that regular government workers would not normally comprise. Its staff size and chain of command are all unknown. However, there were rumors that it is under the auspices of the public safety or internal affairs offices.

   The Order of the Clock Tower is an underground organization of ability users in Great Britain and the England's secret military agency.

   It is a British state organization that has been knighted, granting them the authority to protect the queen. The members of the organization were the queen's highest-ranking imperial guards. Their guard is known for being unbreakable because the ability users belonging to the organization were on the same level as of the Transcendents. Each member was said to be capable of single-handedly taking out an entire terrorist organization in one night. They are also known to hold an ability weapon called One Order. They were the organization responsible for chasing the group known as Mimic out of Europe.

   During the coronation night of the queen, some of the members of the organization were easily killed by Paul Verlaine.

   Sheep is a group consisting largely of teenagers that maintain their own territory and begin attacking the Port Mafia and other organizations.

   The Sheep protect their territory from any possible threats. Sometime after "forming", Chūya joined the Sheep. As a result of Chūya Nakahara's reputation, the group rarely deals with enemies, as any potential enemies are scared off by Chūya's power. As the group focuses on defending its members and territory, they're well-known for defense alongside Chūya's prowess in battle. Consequently, the Sheep depend heavily on Chūya, and many claim Sheep cannot survive without him. Due to the combined rumors of the Port Mafia's former boss returning and Arahabaki's legend, the Port Mafia initiated an attack on the Sheep to lure their "king" out. After the Sheep dismiss Chūya from their ranks, they join forces with the Gelhart Security Service - a marine-based force that attacks ships - for protection. After the Port Mafia slaughtered GSS, they refrained from attacking the Sheep. In the past, the Sheep attempted to recruit Osamu Dazai, but he declined.

   The Sheep consists of delinquent, down-on-their-luck youths, that formed a support chain and their own territory to protect one another. Although young, they developed a deep understanding of dependency on one another, especially their leader. This leads to their 'Council', a group of thirteen members that must cooperate with each other to make decisions for Sheep. As a result of the Council, it is considered unethical for a single Council member to call the shots when a new member is inducted without further approval and discussion. Thus, while one person may be considered "leader", there are twelve others the leader must work with to maintain harmony in the group.

   Europole is a law enforcement agency based in Europe that handles criminal intelligence and combats crime and terrorism through the cooperation of its member states.

   Europole is a European agency operating to combat serious organized crime and terrorism. Since it was formed by former enemy nations, the agency is prohibited from undermining the rights and sovereignty of the agency's European member states except when absolutely necessary. Europole also exercises great caution on which member to dispatch in investigating cases to prevent the escalation of an international scandal and to avoid leakage of obtained intel to other parties. For instance, during the King of Assassins Incident that was primarily caused by French operative Paul Verlaine, Europole was hesitant to send in a foreign agent in fear that information acquired during the investigation would be sold to other countries. In that regard, Europole makes use of other means to compromise and keep state secrets confidential, one of which is sending android detectives created by Europole's engineers like ability user engineer Dr. Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin Shelley. She created the British AI detective codenamed Adam Frankenstein, the first autonomous humanoid supercomputer for law enforcement use. After some time, a second autonomous humanoid supercomputer known as Eve Frankenstein was created and partnered with Adam on other cases.

   Europole was intended to be an international law enforcement agency established from a peace treaty at the end of the Great War. It was originally aimed at eliminating international criminals who operated in secret across borders. However, it eventually became caught in a postwar multinational power struggle, which led several restrictions to be put in place.

   King of Assassins Incident: Europole dispatched android investigator Adam Frankenstein to Yokohama, Japan to arrest the infamous King of Assassins and former French intelligence operative Paul Verlaine who assassinated eight major figures throughout the globe, including the Queen of England (albeit having actually killed her body double). Europole was adamant with sending a foreign agent, lest French state secrets obtained from Verlaine would be sold to other countries, hence settling on having ability user engineer Dr. Wollstonecraft create and program Adam from taking any nation's side and having confidential information he acquires encrypted and stored in his system. However, he was also dispatched with the assurance that, should he get disposed of along the investigation in any way, the state secrets he obtained during said investigative period would be discarded along with him

   The Supernational Armed Security Force by the United Nations or Army of Mankind by Ōchi Fukuchi is an anti-terror organization to be formed to counter the terrorists, Decay of the Angel.

   As described by the U.N., it consists of military police whose jurisdiction covers the whole planet, one unaffiliated with any nation, not tied down by obligations, no prohibited areas, and no deployment restrictions. It is an anti-terror group that defends mankind and not any one's nation's citizens. The force will command all world's armed forces and be permitted to enter independent zones like the Sky Casino.

   The Gelhart Security Service or more commonly known as GSS is an illegal organization of pirates. They are a formerly foreign-funded private security firm until they became a full-fledged illegal organization after their government subsidies cut off. They are known to destroy ships of people who don't hire them and steal their cargo. However, their clients never had their ships attacked. The GSS's drill instructor is an actual soldier while its members were all highly trained fighters. They have been enemies with the Port Mafia ever since GSS attacked and stole from them. Their leader is known to have connections with the North American organization, the Guild.

   Takasekai is an organization in Yokohama. Nothing much is known about the organization except that they have a hostile relationship towards the Port Mafia. They have only been known to be at war with the Mafia.

   The Seven Traitors is an organization of criminals who ended the war among nations. They were seven individuals, each from a different country and of a background race. What they had in common are their extraordinary abilities and a firm resolution to end the war, regardless of how dirty their hands got even if it meant ignoring all principles and morals.

   They head a peace conference on the Standard Island. They kidnapped the highest decision-making bodies of each country and brought them to the island to force peace among the nations. Each of the members utilized their abilities to kidnap the most prominent ruling and military leaders of each nation and locked them inside the island's secret zone. They persuaded, threatened, and in some cases brainwashed the leaders with their ability to get them to agree to peace. They also kidnapped anyone who might affect the continuation of the war, such as key members involved with public relations and executives in munition industries. As a result, the signed treaty for peace became valid, aided by strong demand from anti-war protestors, ending the war. Some of the Seven Traitors died while others disappeared.

   Karma Transit is the organization jointly responsible for kidnapping Atsushi Nakajima, with the Port Mafia using one of their trucks to transport him. They are a pack of smugglers posing as a delivery outfit. They also forge vehicle license plates. The organization started off in the trafficking industry until booming as a logistics firm.

   The United Nations is an international organization.

   The United Nations is an international organization founded in 1945. Currently made up of 193 Member States, the UN and its work are guided by the purposes and principles contained in its founding Charter. The UN has evolved over the years to keep pace with a rapidly changing world. But one thing has stayed the same: it remains the one place on Earth where all the world’s nations can gather together, discuss common problems, and find shared solutions that benefit all of humanity.

   U.N.'s Counter Terrorism Committee or U.N. CTC - is one of the committees of the United Nations.

   V is a domestic gifted underground syndicate that operates in Japan, whose goal is to rid the country of ability users.

   They are an organization of ability users that banded together to get rid of other ability users in Japan. According to then assassin Sakunosuke Oda, the group kills for justice and, once finished doing so, shall only continue to kill indiscriminately. V's range of influence is unknown, though the organization owns a shell company posing as a shipbuilding company's office. As mentioned by one of V's members, Jun Mitamura, V is apparently led by a boss and certain higher-ups. They were also able to employ foreign ex-military guards in their attempt of capturing Sōseki Natsume in their Theatrum Mundi strategy.

   Sometime after the war, V was responsible for using Theatrum Mundi actor Tokio Murakami and playwright Kurahashi as pawns for their large-scale scheme of kidnapping Natsume, an ability user under the government's witness protection program. They issued a declaration to the theater days prior the theatrical run of the play The Living World Is a Dream, the Nocturnal Dream Is Reality, which read: "An angel shall bring death, in the truest sense of the word, to the performer," —V

   One of their members, Mitamura, nearly succeeded in abducting Natsume after incapacitating him, only for the young detective Ranpo Edogawa to expose Natsume as a victim and Murakami, who was executing Kurahashi's scheme at V's behest, to the theater audience. Upon the failure of their plot, V assigned Mitamura, who was operating as a uniformed city police officer, to bring in Ranpo for derailing their plan and persuade him to work with them. This also ended in a failure after bodyguard Yukichi Fukuzawa overpowers Mitamura and his five cohorts with the help of Ranpo's deduction. In the aftermath, Mitamura was arrested but later found dead from being stabbed by an invisible force, which was assumed to be V's action to silence him.

   The May Uprising was a rebel force group. It was a rebel force group with only one member- their leader named Pan, an ability user. They have fought the DGSS Operations Division at an uknown point in time.

   Zoopark is a criminal organization made up of wanted criminals. Its leader, Thumbnail, is known for eponymously pulling out the thumbnail of his victims.

   They move their hideout every four days that even international police cannot locate them. In their latest hideout in Yokohama, they have 18 heavily-armed violent criminals and security cameras. Moreover, their main entrance door is highly secure, which is the kind used in bank vaults that cannot yield even to a bomb explosion. They are a notorious gang whose status increases the heavier they commit crimes and atrocities. The gang also has connections to various local criminal groups. As such, Thumbnail flaunts that they can summon dozens of newly-recruited criminals with a single phone call.

   Arahabaki is a God of Calamity once sealed by the Japanese government. After the seal broke, it merged with a human, Chūya Nakahara.

   From the accounts of Arthur Rimbaud, Arahabaki appeared as a quadrupedal, black beast, with fur, a tail, and eyes all like fire and black smoke. After Rimbaud used it as the base of Illuminations, it gained a form resembling the Port Mafia's former boss. Arahabaki had no single concept of anything other than its own existence. As such, it had no solid personality, only existing as, essentially, the personification of calamity and destruction. Its instincts told it that it'd been sealed away, but that's where its awareness ended.

   Over a decade prior, Arahabaki existed as a God of Calamity sealed away in a facility of the Japanese government. How the government obtained and sealed Arahabaki is unknown, but they used it as part of a series of experiments involving both abilities and otherworldly entities - ultimately creating artificial abilities. Arthur Rimbaud infiltrated the facility, attempting to steal Arahabaki. He failed, only removing its seal. Without the seal, Arahabaki was freed and destroyed the facility, forming the mysterious Cone Street. Between Illuminations' interference and the seal, Arahabaki ceased to exist as a calamitous god, now harboring its power and existence inside Chūya.

   Destruction Embodiment: Arahabaki existed solely for pure destruction, a mass of anything that could destroy and devastate all around it indiscriminately. Corruption: As a part of Chūya, Arabahaki generally remained "dormant" inside him at all times, stabilized by his mere existence. However, when Chūya activates Corruption, he is overrun by his ability, which in turn amplified Arahabaki. True to its name, Chūya loses all awareness, merely taking extreme pleasure in destroying everything around him. [1]

   Demonic Beast Guivre was the singularity that existed inside Paul Verlaine, which when unleashed transformed him into a singularity life-form. Because of its cataclysmic potential, its creator Pan named it after the mirror image of the malevolent god and original demon Guivre.

   In its true form, Guivre was a gargantuan black beast that appeared reptilian and whose head resembled the beast Guivre, albeit with two glowing crimson red eyes that were positioned exactly like a human's. With thick arms, a robust torso, and a massive mouth, Guivre did not possess any organs nor was it made of physical matter, but rather it was the single location where limitless energy stored in the singularity condensed into. It also had a dinosaur-like body, claws, and a black tail. Its feet were enormous enough to flatten roads, highways, and even an entire hill. In its early stages of manifestation, Guivre's body pulsated and kept on growing until it obscured the moonlit sky. Eventually, it grew comparatively colossal than the true form of Arahabaki. In general, Guivre looked nothing like any living being and was too bizarre for human comprehension. Incapable of coherent thought, Guivre was far too sinister to be called a god and was the embodiment of chaos more than a god of destruction. No more than a pool of hatred, it reacted to emotions and particularly responded to hatred, which propelled it automatically move to attack anything hostile, and it could not discern which party was more dangerous than the others and who it would prioritize attacking.

   Hatred Embodiment: Guivre responded to hatred and therefore reacted to anyone and anything that reacted to its presence, mindlessly attacking them possibly until it ran out of energy. When it clashed with Arahabaki, black flames of hatred spewed out of its wounds and instantly regenerated its injuries. Pan, a French researcher, discovered how to create artificial abilities using self-contradicting singularities and successfully made Black No. 12, whose self-contradicting singularity was known as Demonic Beast Guivre. It could be unleashed when a persona model's control, specifically Verlaine's, was stripped away whether willingly or forcibly.

   After Guivre's demise, Verlaine had exhausted every internal energy he possessed and slowly ceased to exist. However, Verlaine soon found himself in Arthur Rimbaud's subspace, where Rimbaud used his own ability to resuscitate Verlaine and replace Guivre with a self-contradicting singularity he generated as Verlaine's new singularity.

   Limitless Energy: Guivre was a singularity that possessed an infinite amount of energy. Osamu Dazai theorized that it could run out of energy in a week, a year, or even "until the end of the world". In comparison with Arahabaki's rampage on Suribachi City, Guivre was believed to be capable of sinking the entirety of Yokohama if it unleashed the same power that Arahabaki unleashed.

   Near-Invulnerability: Made of no physical matter, Guivre innately possessed no vulnerabilities on its form that could be attacked by mere humans or abilities. It could not be damaged with fire, ice, and firepower.

   Gravity Manipulation: Similar with Arahabaki, Guivre could manipulate gravity in various forms and fashions with high offensive intensity.

   Gravitational Spheres: Guivre could breathe beams of gravity to annihilate any target along with the surrounding terrain until nothing remained. It could also unleash gravitational spheres of darkness powered by hatred.

   Black Hole Generation: Guivre could shoot a black hole like a laser, able to hollow land in a straight line like creating a cliff with an abysmal pit. It could repeatedly generate black holes and once created at least 20 black orbs almost simultaneously.

   Graviton Radiation: When incinerated by the ability weapon Annihilation, Guivre was able to withstand its intense heat by absorbing the singularity energy from the weapon's fiery sphere.

   The Red Dragon is a creature that was born from all the chaos of abilities.

   The Red Dragon resembles a Chinese dragon with a snake-like appearance and legs. It has a huge body that covered the skies of Yokohama, has red outer skin, and a gem attached to its forehead.

   The red dragon emerges after Dazai's attempt to nullify the Draconic Mist and the Singularity apparently caused by Fyodor. Ango Sakaguchi would ask Chūya Nakahara for help to eliminate him, but the latter would demand a reward for the death of some old friends at the hands of Tatsuhiko Shibusawa. Already in his corrupted state, Chūya was able to face the dragon and repel its attacks with some ease. Already in the final stages, he would manipulate the gravity of an edition to hit it and the moment the dragon prepared to launch an attack, Chūya would use the building to block its mouth and due to the excess energy, that would cause it to self-destruct.

   Singularity: Because the entity is made up of a large number of abilities of different natures, the red dragon causes high levels of uniqueness. The levels they cause are such that the members of the Special Division for Unusual Powers became concerned and the leader of the Order of the Clock Tower, Dame Agatha Christie, decided to take action on the matter.

   Energy rays: The red dragon can unleash powerful energy beams that will cause loud explosions the moment it comes into contact with anything.

   Mini dragons: The red dragon was able to release a flock of dragons similar to it of much smaller sizes that can attack the opponent in different directions.

   Vampires are blood-sucking species caused by the effects of Bram Stoker's ability, which allows him to command and control them. However, Ōchi Fukuchi seems to have also control over the vampires, allowing him to order them whenever he can.

   People who turn vampires and are under someone's command have black sclerae, fangs, and distinct vein-like markings beneath their eyes similar to Bram's. Vampires can infect other people and turn them into vampires in just a single bite whether bitten alive or dead. They are also shown to have immense speed. Some infected vampires are capable of masking their vampiric appearance in order to trick others and eventually turn them into vampires. In other words, they can act as a single life form. It is unknown whether or not they can be reverted back to their original selves. It was known that vampires exist before as Fukuchi once neutralized Europe's vampire threat. Several weeks after Bram's slumber at least eight years after his defeat against Fukuchi, Bram infects Ryūnosuke Akutagawa as ordered by Fukuchi per the Decay of the Angel's scheme. Subsequently, this triggered a vampire outbreak throughout Yokohama and later to other parts of the world, including the Republic of Nares.

   Current Vampires: Bram Stoker, Ichiyō Higuchi (bitten by Akutagawa), Gin Akutagawa (bitten by Higuchi), Ryūrō Hirotsu (bitten by Gin), Various mafiosi, Michizō Tachihara (bitten by Bram), Unnamed airport passenger (unknown aggressor), Prince of Nares (unknown aggressor), Nares commander (bitten by Prince of Nares), Various troops, Saigiku Jōno (bitten by Akutagawa), and Various airport police officers.

   Former Vampires: Ryūnosuke Akutagawa (bitten by Bram).

   Wasp is a semi-immortal ability user. Nothing is further known except that Ōchi Fukuchi fought the semi-immortal ability user for fifty days straights without any rest. It is considered by the United Nations' as one of the crises that may cause to shatter the foundations of the world if it not for Fukuchi's battle with it.

   Werewolves are species with half-human and half-wolf appearance. No further information is currently known.

   The Annihilation or Codename: Shell is an ability weapon. It was made by Herbert George Wells in Europe during the end of the war.

   It is initially inside a black briefcase and made of antique camera surrounded by shock-absorbent resin and has the capability to destroy everything within miles. It's maximum temperature is approximately 180,000℉. If activated, a crimson magic circle would appear around it. It has the ability to melt everything on its path. Not even Dazai can nullify its plasma vapor. Akutagawa's Rashomon is deemed ineffective in ripping through its heat wave since its surface of discontinuity would close in a mere few seconds.
