(and newcomers - not in the lineup)

1. Maserati GranTurismo – Andrew Minyard
   Make and color: Black Maserati GranTurismo sports convertible / coupe.
   History: Andrew received this expensive car from the Moriyama clan through Kevin as a gift for agreeing to protect Kevin in Palmetto.
   Meaning: The Foxes' main "cult" vehicle. The "monsters" use it to travel to Columbia, the Paradise Club, and on secret missions. Andrew rarely lets anyone drive it, except Neil on rare occasions.
2. Foxes Bus
   Appearance: A huge, branded bus in bright orange with the Fox logo and Palmetto lettering.
   Usage: The primary means of transportation for long-distance travel to tournament matches. Inside, it's the scene of much of the fighting, squabbling, and arguing during long interstate trips.
3. Cars of other players
   Matt Boyd's Pickup: A spacious, practical, and powerful pickup truck (an American model like a Ford or Chevrolet). It easily fits all the gear, and Matt often helps with hauling.
   Daniel Wilds's old hatchback/sedan: A modest, used car, bought with my own hard-earned money. Reliable and simple, without any pretension.
   Allison Reynolds's Luxury Sports Car: Allison drives an expensive, designer car (a luxury German or Italian car) that emphasizes her wealth and "high society" status, although she tries to distance herself from her parents' money.

Uniform Style and Uniform Brand: The Ravens don't have a variety of vehicles or flashy cars to express individuality (unlike the orange accents or Andrew's Maserati). All of their cars are premium German Audi sports sedans (primarily the Audi S6/GS models).
Jet Black: Every single one of the team's cars is painted a deep, jet-black color, devoid of any flashy lettering, decals, or customization. They look stark, expensive, ominous, and absolutely identical.
Movement Control: Cars are allocated only to the top ten players ("Primary"). However, even with the keys, no Raven can simply hop into an Audi and go about their business—driving is strictly permitted by regulations or personal orders from Riko/Tetsuji.
Driving in a column: For official events, unless the Ravens are flying or riding the team bus, their motorcade of identical black Audis moves in a perfect, orderly line, creating the feel of a military convoy or mafia escort.

Each Fox's attitude towards training:
Kevin Day: Absolute fanaticism. He lives on the field, trains until he's exhausted, and forces others to do the same with screams and sadistic workouts.
Neil Josten: Obsession. Exy is his only way to survive and forget the past. He pushes himself to the limit, willingly enduring late-night training sessions with Kevin.
Andrew Minyard: Complete apathy and self-sabotage. Hates Exie, often just standing in goal, leaning on his stick. Only starts playing to protect Neil or as part of a deal.
Aaron Minyard: Pragmatism. He views Exie as payment for his scholarship to medical school. He works exactly as long as his contract requires, without showing excessive zeal.
Nicky Hemmick: Loud whiner and submissive. He complains the most about the hellish pace and pain, but still works hard because he's afraid of letting his family and team down.
Dan Wilds: Leadership responsibility. Gives 100%, setting the bar for everyone. Acts as a buffer between Kevin, who's overwhelmed by the demands, and the exhausted players.
Matt Boyd: Genuine enthusiasm. He loves the game and trains with utmost dedication. He's always ready to cheer on the team and is a rock on the pitch.
Allison Reynolds: She feigns outrage. She pretends that working out is beneath her and that sweat ruins her makeup. But in reality, she has a rigorous technique and works just as hard as the guys.
Renee Walker: Meditative calm. Never complains of pain or fatigue. For her, grueling sports are a way to contain her inner cruelty.
Seth Gordon: Aggression. He viewed training as an arena for anger, constantly clashed with Kevin, and sabotaged exercises on principle.

Private Wing: All players live in Fox Tower, the university's dorm. Wymack specifically ensured that the team occupied its own wing, minimizing contact with regular students.
4. Playing style: Chaos and Aggression
Asymmetrical Roster: The Foxes have a catastrophically small roster—just 10 players (the norm is 12–15). Because of this, they have virtually no full-strength substitutions, forcing them to play at the limits of human ability.
Tactics: On the field, the Foxes have long played not as a well-oiled machine, but as individuals. Their style is a mixture of insane individual technique (thanks to Kevin's discipline), aggressive play, and unpredictability.
Colors and symbols: The official colors are bright orange and white. The mascot is the fox.

1. Financial and team quirks
   Expensive tickets for charity: Foxes' games are slightly more expensive than other league teams. It was Rene's idea—the team regularly donates a portion of its ticket sales to charity projects.
   The main tradition is betting: The Foxes love to bet on literally everything: who will be the first to break down during training, how many days the pair will last, how Wymack will react to the latest prank, or by what score they will lose (or win).
   Reflective Jackets: Each player wears a signature bright orange windbreaker with their name and the word "Foxes" printed on the back, made of reflective material. In the dark, they literally glow like road signs.
2. Constant language barrier
   Polyglots by force: Due to the team's secretive composition, they constantly speak different languages ​​when they want to hide something:
   Neil speaks French and German fluently, but for a long time he pretended not to understand a word.
   Andrew, Aaron, Nicky and Kevin learned to speak German so they could discuss their secrets in public.
   •Strict line-up order: The Foxes always line-up on the pitch one after the other, with Dan Wilds leading the line as captain.
   Team Concept: "A Shelter for the Broken"
   Official status: The Foxes are the only team in the 1st Division of the National Exy Association made up entirely of "difficult" teenagers.
   Wymack's Idea: Coach David Wymack intentionally recruits players from disadvantaged backgrounds (orphans, former drug addicts, victims of violence, people with criminal records). He gives them a second chance when other sports programs have rejected them.
   Media Stigma: For a long time, the Lisovs were not perceived as real athletes in sports circles and the press. They were considered a circus act, a "dumping of dead stock," and guaranteed underdogs in the tournament standings.

1. A closed underground world
   The Nest is deep: The Evermore facility is built entirely underground, beneath Edgar Allan Stadium. There are no windows, meaning players don't see sunlight for months at a time.
   Black Pool: Even the water in their pool appears jet-black due to the unique black tiles.
2. Cruel traditions and rituals
   Banquet Tradition: At formal banquets and gatherings, the Ravens always stand in perfect formation, silent and moving in sync, reminiscent of real soldiers or cult members.
   Initiation into "Primary": The application of a number tattoo on the cheekbone occurs without anesthesia - it is a brutal ritual testing pain and loyalty.
   Relationship with Rico: Rico is publicly presented as the perfect leader, but within the team, everyone is terrified of him due to his unpredictable outbursts of anger.
3. Sports dominance
   Undefeated Streak: The Ravens held the national Exy title for years in a row. For them, any place other than first is an absolute disgrace and a tragedy.
   Special Equipment: Their equipment and keys are the most expensive and technologically advanced in the league, custom-made.

Hierarchy and stigma
Status numbers: The top ten ("Primary") are the elite. This number determines the player's overall value.
Cheekbone Tattoo: Top players receive a tattoo of a number on their left cheek—a lifelong mark of ownership of the Moriyama clan.
Rico's Power: The Captain is an absolute tyrant. His orders are not questioned, and questioning him is forbidden.
2. Insulation and black "Nest"
No colors: All underground rooms, walls, furniture, uniforms, and linens are strictly black. This deprives one of a sense of time and is depressing.
Worldly renunciation: Contact with family, friends, and the press is prohibited. Phones are monitored, personal belongings are absent—everything belongs to the clan.
3. Violence and regime
12–16 hours of training: The schedule is grueling, sleep is minimal. Vacations are nonexistent.
Pain as a Method: Tetsuji ("Master") and Riko punish mistakes with a cane, sticks and fists.
No weakness allowed: Complaining about injuries is prohibited. Players take to the field even with broken bones.
4. Suppression of personality
Only Exie: A person has no right to hobbies, dreams or a personal life.
Entry is a ruble, exit is impossible: Leaving the team is impossible. Running away is punishable by death or a ruined career (like Kevin's broken arm).
No friendship: Empathy is considered a defect. Crows pit one another against the other to curry favor with the higher-ups.

Position: Defender
Character and style
Andrew's twin, but with a radically different worldview. Calmer, more pragmatic, he strives to be "normal." He went to university to become a doctor. He doesn't share Kevin or Neil's insane fanaticism toward Exie, and views sports as a means to earn a scholarship and education. He keeps to himself on the team and has a difficult time getting along with Andrew due to old grudges and Caitlin's influence.
Appearance
He is an exact copy of Andrew in height and facial features (blond hair, brown eyes), but has a more confident posture, a less intense gaze, and a lack of specific linguistic behavior (he does not grin manically).
Accessories and style

Classic casual: Simple, inconspicuous student clothing (jeans, sweatshirts without specific black armbands).

Kevin Day - No. 2

An obsessive, demanding, arrogant egocentric whose entire existence revolves around Exy. A former co-creator of the Ravens' greatness and Riko Moriyama's sworn brother, he defected to the Foxes after Riko broke his dominant left arm.

Andrew Minyard - No. 3
Position: Goalkeeper
Character and style
Cold, cynical, prone to psychopathic and defensive authoritarianism, yet possessing his own moral code ("trust no one," but "defend what you promised"). He shows no interest in Exy as a sport, but is relentless on the field—he has phenomenal reflexes. Initially, he is under the influence of heavy psychotropic drugs due to a court order, which manifests itself in manic laughter and apathy.
Appearance
Short (around 150 cm), with a stocky build. He closely resembles his twin brother Aaron: bleached blond hair, brown eyes. He has scars on his forearms.

Black armbands: His most recognizable style element. He hid knives under them.

Clothes: Prefers a dark, discreet style, black headbands, sweatshirts.

Neil Josten - No. 10
Position: Forward
Character and style
Stubborn, secretive, and fiercely devoted to Exy and survival. Due to his fugitive past, he's constantly on the run from Rico and his serial killer father (the "Baltimore Butcher"). The stakes in the game are his life. On the field, he excels in incredible speed, stamina, and fanatical dedication. He pushes himself to the limit in training, initially wary of getting close to the Foxes, but gradually becomes the glue that holds the fractured team together.
Appearance
He is of a slight but lean and athletic build, short (around 160 cm). He has dark red hair and sky-blue eyes (inherited from his father), which he long hid under makeup and brown contacts. His entire skin—from his shoulders to his feet—is covered with terrible scars from torture, burns, and stab wounds.
Accessories and style
Bandages on collarbones/arms: Always wear closed clothing (long-sleeved sweatshirts, long pants) to hide scars.
