Key character traits
Optimistic and cheerful, Felix truly believes he can make everyone happy. His motto is universal good and positivity.

Energetic, bordering on wildness. He is restless, overflowing with energy, which sometimes escalates into uncontrollable aggression.

Need for approval. He strives to do good, but partly to show how good he is and to gain recognition.

Naivety and vulnerability. One of the most emotionally vulnerable clones, not very self-sufficient.

Fanaticism in ideas. When he becomes fascinated with an idea (for example, to build an ideal state), he pursues it with tenacity, sometimes oblivious to the consequences.

Fanaticism in ideas. When he becomes fascinated with an idea (for example, to build an ideal state), he pursues it with tenacity, sometimes oblivious to the consequences.

Hot-tempered. Easily loses their temper when faced with misunderstanding, criticism, or resistance. Later, they may feel ashamed of their outbursts.

Generosity and kindness. He genuinely wants to help others, although his methods aren't always successful.

Having an alter ego. Felix has a "dark side"—an inner voice or image (little Felix) that reminds him of his values ​​and helps him calm down in moments of anger.

Inspired by Dante. Considers Dante his idol and sometimes tries to follow his wisdom when he calms down.

Her hair is gray, styled with a little volume on top, with strands hanging down the sides of her face.
The eyebrows are drawn together toward the bridge of the nose. This often gives the face an expression of displeasure or irritation.

The glasses are rectangular, with a thick frame.

The "card" version features a gray-brown jacket and trousers, a darker tie, and a brown shirt. A star-shaped medal may be worn on the chest, and a crown with the symbol of clubs (his native suit) may be worn on the head. A cloak

Card Suit. When the action shifts to the Card World (starting with the first chapter of "Land of Kings"), Peak dons a different outfit. It resembles Japanese samurai armor: the helmet, breastplate, and other elements are adorned with the pike symbol, and some details feature the number 8—the clone's number. The armor is dark purple.

Key features:

Rationality and precision. Kuromaku values ​​a logical approach, relying on calculations and facts. He often expresses his thoughts through percentages and probabilities—for example, assessing the inadequacy of other clones' behavior.

High intelligence. Claims to be able to multiply four-digit numbers in her head. Demonstrates deep knowledge of the exact sciences (algebra, geometry, physics).

Pedantry and perfectionism. He strives for perfection in completing tasks and follows a plan. This is evident in "Fedor x 9" when he replaces Fedor at school and strives to organize everything precisely.

Disciplined and responsible. One of the most mature and reliable clones. Ready to sacrifice himself for others, although outwardly he appears cold-blooded.

Pragmatism and a technocratic approach. In "Land of Kings," he uses the Probability Generator to rationally build society. His government relies on the development of technology and electronics.

Introversion. He's inclined to solitude and dislikes chaos and unpredictability. From the suit of clubs, he inherited a drive to calculate risks and ensure security.

Emotions and reactions:

Reserved. Usually calm and serious, rarely displays emotion. He has a habit of adjusting his glasses, which emphasizes his focus and a certain detachment.

Irritability. Easily angered by the illogical or irresponsible behavior of others. Most often, he clashes with Varu, whom he considers a "saboteur and enemy of labor."

Outbursts of anger. In extreme cases, he may resort to physical force, but he does so deliberately—only if he believes the opponent truly deserves it.

Conservatism. The "It Was Better Before" meme suggests that it idealizes the past and considers it more orderly.

Social features:

Diplomacy (with reservations). He convenes congresses of rulers and distributes videophones to clones for communication. However, his communication style is dry and businesslike—he prefers facts to emotions.

Ideological views. Some of the audience sees him as a supporter of communist ideas: he threw

What it looks like:

The base is a pale yellow shirt.
A musketeer's cloak is worn over it.
On his feet are dark yellow trousers and even darker boots.
On his head is a yellow hat with a feather. But in "Land of the Kings," Felix trades the hat for a crown—an important detail that reflects his status in this universe.
Another cool feature: there's a smiley face icon on the garment. This is what secures the cape.
Incidentally, the yellow color and smiley face are not accidental. Felix represents the Jack of Hearts, and these details emphasize his connection to the card theme and his optimistic, "cheerful" image (although, as we know, he has a rather fiery temperament).

In the plot of "Land of Kings," Felix's clothing is the subject of a funny and revealing scene: in the fifth chapter, in a fit of anger, he damages his outfit.

Key character traits
Leadership. Peak is the acknowledged leader among the clones, though he rarely issues orders. He sees himself as a ruler, embodied in his "Peak Empire"—a state with an army and statues of the king himself.

Silence and isolation. Most often, Peak remains silent, preferring to observe rather than participate in conversations. He rarely opens up to other clones.

Hot-tempered. Despite his outward restraint, Peak is prone to sharp emotional reactions. When angry, his eyes can change color (from black to red with yellow flecks).

Oratorical talent. Able to speak persuasively, capable of manipulating words and deceiving anyone if necessary to achieve a goal.

Disillusionment with people. A balance between the desire to lead and a cynical attitude toward others. Doesn't consider clones friends, but rather temporary allies.

Selfishness and pragmatism. He's willing to sacrifice others for his own gain, but he keeps his word unless it conflicts with his interests.

Hatred of pranksters. Reacts sharply to jokes and provocations, perceiving them as disrespect.

Physical Strength. Peak is very strong and wields weapons, but rarely uses force, preferring to solve problems strategically.

A desire for freedom. More than any other clone, he longs to escape the Card World, which he considers a prison.

Key character traits:

Wisdom and a philosophical mind. Dante is the wisest of the clones. He frequently quotes philosophers and uses proverbs, reflecting on global issues (for example, he begins "Land of Kings" with a discussion of the nature of power).

Calm and phlegmatic. Outwardly, he's almost always unperturbed, capable of meditation, and striving for inner perfection. Kuromaku even calls him "phlegmatic."

Laziness. Despite his profound thoughts, Dante often displays laziness: in "Fedor x9," he yawns in class, picks his nose, and puts his feet up on his desk.

Self-sufficiency. He is not overly involved in negotiations and external events, preferring to focus on self-knowledge. In "Land of Kings," he steps aside and creates his own state—Sukhavati—based on his own principles.

Harmony and the pursuit of balance. His symbol is Yin-Yang, reflecting his worldview. The country he founded, Sukhavati, is built on the ideas of harmony and the Eastern philosophy of a long and happy life.

A knack for self-irony. Although he often makes "profound" remarks, sometimes he does so out of place—and this can come across as funny or even irritating to others.

Neutral attitude towards others. Dante doesn't clash with anyone, treating everyone equally, even Var, who provokes the other clones.

Hidden Power. His relaxed demeanor conceals power: after absorbing the energy of a probability generator, he gains immense physical strength and the ability to shapeshift, becoming a near-divine being.

The paradox of personality

Dante combines seemingly incompatible qualities:

on the one hand - wisdom, depth and striving for perfection;

on the other hand, laziness, naivety (for example, his reasoning about how knowledge of English will help him open a store and become a millionaire) and even fears (he is afraid of dogs).

This makes his image lively and multi-layered: he is not a “sage on a pedestal,” but a character who seeks a balance between contemplation and action, between inner harmony and interaction with the world.

How does this work
According to the creator, Fyodor Nechitailo, the generator influences reality at the subatomic (quantum) level. It can be used to dramatically increase the likelihood of an object or event materializing. For example, the owner can "create" necessary resources, construct buildings, and even create new inhabitants for their kingdom.

But there's an important caveat: the generator's charge is limited and cannot be replenished. The more complex the task (the larger the object or event), the more energy it will consume. That's why clones in comics often conserve their charges in case they're needed at a critical moment.

Another feature: in the Card World, the generator works especially well due to the "plasticity" of this reality. And if the clones decide to make a new generator from the old one, the energy will be divided between them (each will have approximately half the original charge).

Where did he come from?
Fyodor originally came up with the idea back in 2010–2011, when he was sketching out sketches of such a device in class. He later used his own generator to enter the Card World, then divided its energy into eight parts and distributed it to his clones. Each clone's generator acquired a unique color scheme: the display, button, and legs matched the clone's color (Gabriel's was brown, Kuromaku's was gray, and so on). The red pinwheel, however, remained the same for everyone.

What happened next?
In the comics, the fates of the devices turned out differently:

Dante managed to use energy as efficiently as possible (approaching efficiency close to 100%).
Romeo wore his generator on a chain, but he used it unproductively—and his charge ran out first.
Varu even turned his generator into a helmet (crown), which he always wore.
Felix connected technology to his generator to remotely control a mechanical sun (to save energy).

Dante wields air and fire magic. He absorbed the Probability Generator (additional magic).

Peak is the Key Generator. He created a key from the Generator, which allows him to wield magic.

Sukhavati in the Land of Kings
Sukhavati is a state created by Dante after absorbing the energy of a probability generator. The name alludes to the Buddhist concept of the Pure Land of Buddha Amitabha (translated from Sanskrit as "sphere of bliss" or "happy land"), emphasizing the philosophy of the place.

Origin
Dante created Sukhavati using the power of the absorbed probability generator—a device capable of altering reality. Unlike the other clones, he didn't simply use the generator, but fully integrated its energy into himself and his creation.

Location and appearance
Location: in the gigantic maroon mountains, difficult to access for outsiders. The access to the state is difficult, which contributes to its isolation.

The landscape inside: green hills, bright sunshine, picturesque houses of the residents. The contrast between the harsh outer boundary and the harmonious interior emphasizes the idea of ​​refuge.

State Center: A large communal building containing meditation halls and other rooms serving the needs of the community.

Principles of the device
Sukhavati is built on the ideas of harmony, balance, and the Eastern philosophy of a long and happy life. Key principles:

Yin-Yang: a symbol that reflects Dante's worldview and underlies the laws of the state.

Self-improvement: Residents are encouraged to meditate and grow spiritually.

Collectivism: An emphasis on community where everyone contributes to the common good.

Minimizing conflicts: absence of rigid hierarchy and the desire for power for the sake of power.

Population
Dante created 16 works of Sukhavati. Each of them:
There are many residents
has a unique craft (for example, a cook, an artist, a builder);

knows all the other residents, which forms close social ties;

lives in harmony with the principles of the state, following Dante's philosophy.

Peculiarities of reality
Sukhavati is not just a territory, but a special reality with its own laws:

Magical stability: maintained by Dante's will and the generator's energy.

Local magic: within the state Dante can me
