Ango Sakaguchi
Characteristic
Position and organization: Ministry of Foreign Affairs employee, assistant adviser in the Special Department for Gifted Affairs.
Appearance: A tall man with short dark hair and round-framed glasses. A distinctive feature is a mole above his lip on the right side of his face. He usually wears a pale brown double-breasted coat, a round-collared shirt, and a brown tie. Personality: A reserved, calm man who displays more restraint than Osamu Dazai and more discipline than Oda Sakunosuke. He values ​​life—both his own and that of others.
Ability
"Discourse on Decadence" (Daraku-ron) - Allows one to extract and read memories stored in objects or people. This ability can be useful for obtaining information, but its frequent use can overload the brain - there have been instances where Ango has temporarily lost consciousness due to the influx of data. Past
Ango was previously an informant for the Port Mafia and the Mimic organization. Under government orders, he infiltrated the Port Mafia to spy on its activities. While working for the Mafia, he also became a Mimic agent under orders from Ogai Mori. After the Dragon's Head conflict, Ango kept records of the lives of deceased mafiosi, from their biographies to their family lives. He ensured that their immediate families were aware of their deaths, but tried to keep his connections to the Port Mafia under wraps. Relationships
Four years ago, Ango was close friends with Sakunosuke Oda and Osamu Dazai, a friendship he cherished. However, when his friends discovered his true role, their relationship became strained. Ango suffers from guilt, continues to visit Oda's grave (even in the rain), and keeps a photo of Dazai on his desk. He also occasionally disobeys government orders when he believes it is morally right or necessary to help Dazai.

Fyodor Dostoevsky - He is the leader of the criminal organization "Rats of the Dead House" and a member of the terrorist group "Death of the Celestials." Appearance and character
Fyodor is a tall, slender young man with medium-length black hair and long bangs that cover his forehead and the bridge of his nose. His eyes are narrow and almost always half-lidded, giving him a tired appearance. He has a broad smile and smooth features. He wears a caftan-style shirt with a high collar and a five-button front. The shirt is cut in a V-neck. The shirt features purple embroidery and topstitching. He wears knee-high red boots with white trousers tucked into them. He also wears a long black coat with rectangular lapels and a white fur hat with earflaps.
Dostoevsky is calm, self-assured, a brilliant manipulator and strategist. He possesses extensive knowledge of human psychology, possesses a photographic memory, and is able to memorize the smallest details in a fraction of the time. At the same time, he is extremely arrogant and blunt, and his personality can be described as sinister. Dazai calls him a "Demon." Fyodor believes in the sinful nature of man and has strong religious convictions. He defines himself as God and seeks to "cleanse" people of "sin," searching for a "Book" that will allow him to destroy ability users and unleash a war between them and ordinary people. Ability: "Crime and Punishment"
The name of this ability is a reference to Fyodor Dostoevsky's novel "Crime and Punishment." According to one theory, it allows one to inhabit the body of one's killer, retaining one's own skills and abilities, as well as partially preserving the body features and abilities of the victim. If the person Dostoevsky kills is themselves targeted by this ability, they themselves can become its target. The only thing that can permanently destroy this ability is the killer's suicide on the spot.

Nikolai Gogol is one of the five members of the organization "Decay of the Angel". Appearance
A tall young man with pale skin and short gray hair braided into a long braid. He has a long vertical scar across his left eye, and his right eye appears blank, lacking any glare. He wears an eye patch shaped like a card or map. His attire is eccentric, reminiscent of a circus performer: a black cape (the right side is completely black), black and white striped pants, a shirt with a ripped round collar resembling a loose turtleneck, dark gloves, and a top hat with a diamond pattern. Personality
Gogol is presented as a cheerful, sadistic man who loves to ask questions and answer them immediately, without waiting for an answer. He often behaves theatrically, uses rhetorical threats, and holds fact-based "quizzes." At the same time, he has two contradictory sides: on the one hand, he feels no remorse for his murders, on the other, he recognizes the cruelty of his actions and feels guilt. Gogol dreams of freedom, like the flight of a bird, and believes that the skull is a cage from which he wants to "fly away." He believes he can cleanse the world of espers and "paint it with blood." At the same time, he claims to understand that killing people is wrong and feels guilt, just like everyone else.
The only person Gogol believes understands him is Fyodor Dostoevsky, whom he calls "Dos-kun" or "Dostoevsky." Gogol attempts to kill Dostoevsky, believing that this will demonstrate his "free will." Ability
The ability is called "The Overcoat" (Japanese: "Obakoto"). It allows one to manipulate space using the cloak: linking oneself to space within a radius of approximately 30 meters and transporting objects and living beings within it. The ability acts as a portal and a "pocket dimension" where objects can be stored. For example, Gogol used it to "cut off" Atsushi Nakajima's leg and leave it in a separate dimension.

Sigma He is a member of the organization "Death of the Celestials" and the general manager of the "Sky Casino". Ability
The "Information Exchange" ability allows Sigma to exchange information from an opponent with a touch, essentially extracting the information they most desire.

Earrings in both ears.

Biography
Sigma is a fictional hero whose fate was written on the page of a "book." Three years before the events of the series, he appeared in the world: he opened his eyes for the first time and found himself in a desert, utterly empty. His only possessions were his clothes and a train ticket from a non-existent station.

Sakunosuke Oda ( Ozaki ), also known as Odasaku , was a member of the Port Mafia and a close friend of Osamu Dazai. Tall, with dark brown eyes and short reddish-orange hair, he wore a black collared shirt, dark gray pants, and a beige coat. He sometimes wore a bulletproof vest under his shirt and a leather bracelet on his wrist.

Despite his work in the mafia, Oda was a kind man with a rare calm and rarely killed. However, when enraged, he became an incredibly powerful fighter. His insight allowed him to understand the true state of Dazai, whom he called "a friend tired of the world and waiting for death. "It was Oda's understanding and regret that led to Dazai's departure from the mafia.

Oda's ability, "Flawless," allows him to foresee the future for 5-6 seconds. This renders surprise attacks useless, but if the danger is recognized after six seconds, the ability is ineffective. If Oda changes his actions, he sees a new, possibly more dangerous future.

Oda was once a ruthless killer until he met the writer Natsume Soseki, who encouraged him to write the conclusion to his book himself. This inspired Oda to become a writer and give up killing. Before his death during the massacre of the Mimic organization, he asked Dazai to "become a good person and protect the weak. "

Rambo lost his memories and was recruited by the Port Mafia under the alias Rando, rising to the rank of second-in-command.

Years later, Rambo planned a trap for the real Arahabaki, Chuuya Nakahara, by spreading rumors of the mafia boss's resurrection. In a decisive battle against Chuuya and Dazai, Rambo was defeated. Before his death, he repented and asked Chuuya for forgiveness, leaving behind inspiring final words.

Howard Phillips Lovecraft is one of the most enigmatic members of the Guild.
Character
Lovecraft is an extremely apathetic and detached character. He cares little: he can fall asleep in the middle of a fight, reacts indifferently to chaos and destruction, and is lazy about his work.

An important detail: the plot emphasizes that the "Great Old Ones" are technically not even a typical esper ability—which is why it can't be neutralized by Dazai (whose power nullifies other people's abilities). Lovecraft also boasts incredible regeneration: he can recover even from severe injuries.

Herman Melville was one of the Guild's most powerful members. He was even its former leader, two generations before Francis Fitzgerald.
Ability

Melville's connection to Moby-Dick is unique: he views it not simply as a weapon or a base, but as a kind of "ship" with which he must share his fate. At the climax of the arc, he is ready to go down with it—like a captain who never abandons his ship. Due to the intense mechanization, Melville gradually loses control of his ability. Character
Herman is a calm, reserved, and even slightly melancholic elderly man. He doesn't seek senseless destruction and harbors no personal ill will toward his opponents. Unlike the ambitious Fitzgerald, Melville is more philosophical about his surroundings and remains true to his principles. Appearance and details

Height: 182 cm.
He appears to be a mature, collected man; his image emphasizes his role as a "captain".

His main goal in the Guild arc is to obtain the "Book" to fulfill his cherished wish (which, according to the plot, is connected to his personal tragedy). Appearance and details
Tall (191 cm), slim, blond hair, blue eyes.
He wears expensive suits; in battle, his appearance becomes even more striking due to glowing green patterns when his ability is activated. He owns an entire empire: hotels, an airline, a railway, etc., which underscores his status and capabilities.

The transformation can be partial (with the appearance of tiger stripes and fangs) or complete (with the transformation of limbs into brindle and the appearance of a tail).

In the past, during the Great War, Akiko was a military medical scientist in the 356th Infantry Division. It healed the wounds of soldiers, even the smallest ones, which provided the front with regular replenishment. For this, the soldiers nicknamed her the "Angel of Death".

Many years before the agency was founded, Fukuzawa was a well-known martial artist and worked as a bodyguard. At the end of the Great War, he worked as an assassin who was tasked with eliminating hawkish bureaucrats and leaders of foreign military parties. For his skills, he received the nickname "Silver Wolf" (Ginro). He resigned from this position when he realized that he was starting to look forward to the opportunity to kill his targets, because the murders seemed simple and spontaneous to him. Later he worked as a bodyguard on a contract basis. He founded the "Armed Detective

Kenji Miyazawa
Kenji's appearance
is a 14-year-old boy with golden eyes, short blonde hair to the back of his head, bangs on his forehead, freckles on his cheeks. He wears a blue jumpsuit with ripped sleeves, underneath which is a beige shirt and a black tank top. Around his neck is a straw hat. He usually walks barefoot, but sometimes wears sandals. Kenji's personality
comes from the small village of Ichatovo, where he lived without modern technology and where the concept of money was new to him - the residents simply exchanged things. He is simple, carefree and hospitable, always greeting people with a smile, which is why he is popular in the city. He has an optimistic outlook on life, and he sincerely believes in the innate sincerity of other people, regardless of their actions. Because of his village upbringing, Kenji is sometimes unaware of the dangers, but this same mentality has helped him solve complex cases. However, his lack of understanding of urban realities often leads to peculiar methods of conflict resolution - for example, he can use his ability to subdue the enemy. Because of this, he has developed an intimidating reputation among some suspicious groups in the city. Ability: Don't Give in to the Rain (雨ニモマケズ, Ame ni mo Makezu?). It gives Kenji superhuman strength and resilience, allowing him to perform feats that are inaccessible to ordinary people: lifting cars, pulling out cement road signs, tearing heavy steel doors off walls. Key condition: The ability only works when Kenji is hungry. After eating, he falls asleep.
The family motto of the Miyazawa family is: "If a cow refuses to do what it is told to do, beat it until it becomes tame." Kenji joined the agency two months before the start of the main events. He was actively involved in the investigation of cases, for example, he helped in the search for the kidnappers of Atsushi Nakajima. In critical situations, when it came to protecting friends, Kenji could abruptly change his character from calm and collected to furious, ready for anything.

possess a skill that he calls "Superdeduction" (超推理, Chō Suiri). It allows him to instantly solve any mystery, find out the truth about the crime scene, find clues and identify the criminal. However, in fact, Ranpo does not have supernatural abilities - his success is explained exclusively by his brilliant mind and incredible observation. He truly believes that this is his ability, and "activates" it by wearing glasses that the agency's director, Yukichi Fukuzawa, gave him. Ability Limitation: Overdeduction cannot solve a crime that has been erased by the Perfect Crime ability.

The ability has its true form, Corruption. When activated, Chuya loses control of himself: his physical abilities increase dramatically (he can, for example, break through a tank with his bare hands), and miniature black holes form around him, devouring everything around him. However, without the help of Dazai, who neutralizes his ability, Chūya will not be able to stop and will eventually die. His ability "Arabhabaki" is named after an ancient Japanese deity associated with destructive power. In the past, Chuya was a member of the group "Sheep", but was betrayed by its members.
