Underworld Office

Nero wore a long, dark blue coat and a band shirt. On his left wrist, he wore two black bracelets. He wore black pants held up by a belt with a rose buckle. Nero wore black boots that reached mid-shin. He had white hair styled downwards and light brown eyes. His clothing was based on various video games, as he was a geek before he died, but he usually dressed casually. He wore a scarf around his neck. Nero died at the age of 16, killed by the mafia while trying to get money to help his mother financially , as he couldn't find work due to his young age. After failing to pay his debts to the mafia, Nero was beaten and thrown from the roof of a 17th-floor building. Upon landing, his body was found by a truck, completing the job. He wears headphones most of the time, only taking them off to talk or listen to others. A 16- year -old boy, impulsive but kind, and responsible when necessary, he gets along very well with River. They are both equally impulsive and idiotic, and treat each other like brothers. He's never in the Office, as he spends his time wandering around the train station guiding lost souls, getting rid of monsters, or locked in a room to isolate himself from the world. Nero 's magical item (Souvenir) is his headphones. These can be borrowed, and depending on the song, they grant the ability to completely change the environment, from forests to gothic castles. Nero's job at the Underworld Office is to ensure there are no monsters in the station, guide lost or newly fallen souls, and generally look after the platform. When he was alive, Nero enjoyed riding the train with headphones on. Nero's weapon / souvenir is a spiked sickle attached to a rope, which he uses to trap and harm.

A ghost's memory is (usually) an object that is linked to the ghost's life or inner self, usually something very significant to him.

This type of ability causes the being to become trapped in another dimension within the memory. Normally, evil spirits are the beings sealed within these memories, but it is also possible for ghosts to be sealed.

However, despite this ability being strong, there is a possibility that a being could break the seal.

The memories that have been shown to have this type of ability are:

Boss Joan

The powers in question and the way they are used vary from ghost to ghost, but most memories demonstrate powers whose functions can be classified into three categories: sealing another being, attacking another being, or supporting another being.

Eugene is a slender teenager with dark, droopy eyes and straight, light brown hair. His signature outfit consists of a twilight lavender/pastel maroon hoodie over a white t-shirt, paired with blue rolled-up shorts, white knee-high socks, and brown shoes. He also often wears round black glasses.

He has a recurring nightmare in which they are alone in a dark place, accompanied only by a mirror that shows them their reflection. In the dream, they are wearing a simple white t-shirt instead of their usual attire.

Initially, Eugene is introverted, quiet, and extremely insecure. He rarely speaks in public due to his shyness and fear of making mistakes, stemming from his uncontrollable stutter. It's implied that he often goes an entire day without saying a word. However, he is shown to care about others and is determined to help, though his motives depend on the player's choices.

His magical object (Memory) is unknown, since he is not yet dead; he simply crosses the barrier between the underworld and the human world. It is suspected to be his glasses, but their abilities and use are unknown. He goes to school, so he only comes to the Underworld Office occasionally to see his friends. Eugene is afraid of Nero.

Charlie is an evil spirit of unknown gender, though it is suspected to be female. Its body is completely black and shapeless. Large clumps of unruly hair protrude from its head. Its eyes, white with tiny, scattered black pupils, are the most distinctive feature of its body. The neck and abdomen are irregular, and a significant portion of the abdomen is missing, save for a thin diagonal line connecting the upper and lower body. The right leg is also almost completely detached.

Charlie is a vengeful spirit who tries to torment people through nightmares to feel powerful. Eugene first encounters Charlie on the subway, attempting to give several passengers heart attacks while they slept.

Charlie's (Memory) magic object is a pair of scissors, used more as a weapon than anything else. This is because Charlie, in his human days, was antisocial and preferred cutting paper figures with them.

Joan, an elderly woman who fought in World War I, often reminisces about her time as a human and compares it to the current generation. However, the Chief is much older than Joan. She has three children. In the past, she murdered her neighbor in a post-traumatic stress attack, haunted by memories of the war. Rumors circulated that there were thieves in the area at the time, and when they knocked on her door, Joan opened fire, killing the neighbor who had only tried to be kind. In her despair, Joan threw the body into the river and pretended not to have seen anything.

Joan's magic object (Memory) is a staff, which she uses to recharge her weight, but can also transform into what appears to be a weapon of war.

Boss is calm, strict, and irritable. He has a dark and sarcastic sense of humor that others often misunderstand because of his personality.

He wears an ancient purple robe; his body is entirely shadows, except for his "eyes," which are of a dim but bright light.

His magical object (Memory) is a fan, which he can use to seal ghosts within it, using tendrils to trap them, the fan as a weapon , and finally sealing the enemy. His past is unknown to everyone, since he never speaks of it, nor will he. However, breaking the fourth wall, it is known that he disappointed his family for some reason, and to avoid shaming them, he went to the cave that divided the human world and the underworld, a cave from which he never returned, at least not physically.

Hayden is a very innocent little boy who died at an early age, apparently from cancer or some other unknown disease. He is, thinks, and speaks like a child, wears a lime green hat and a striped outfit, and his ability is to talk to cats.

His magic object (Memory) is his hat, which he can give to another ghost and be able to transmit his ability to talk to cats.

She loves her parents and often tells how her mother used to tell her stories in the hospital.

Hayden has the idea that if he behaves well he will be able to see his parents again someday, so he tries to be good.

River is a tall, slender woman with long hair. Like Boss, her body is entirely black and white to distinguish the dead from the living. The top of her hair is black, while the base is white. Aside from this, the only white parts of her body are her arms, neck, ears, and the lower half of her face. River is the only employee in the Underworld Office who doesn't wear any clothes. She often floats, and her playful attitude can be a bit irritating at times, especially to Boss.

When she was human, River also looked like an office worker. She wore a white shirt tucked into a black pencil skirt with a slit in the back, and black stockings with holes in the toes, presumably from overuse. She had fair skin and her hair was pulled back in a low ponytail that reached slightly above her tailbone; her eyes were green. She held a black tie in her left hand and a black blazer in her right.

River is currently dead, she was run over after falling onto the train tracks after arguing with a co-worker over workplace negligence.

River's magical item (Memory) is kept secret throughout both games, but at the end of Charlie in Underworld, it is revealed that River's memory is her hair. It is unknown why or how her hair is her keepsake. A significant amount of her hair was pulled out and kept by the Chief so that she would have no choice but to work for him. River is a very good friend of Nero, the closest of all, and she is the only one who can talk to him without fear.

River has almost complete control over her hair, so she can use it as a weapon and for defense. She also uses it for support and to keep enemies in check.
