• Appearance: A short guy with blond hair and brown eyes. He has an eyebrow piercing and an earlobe piercing. He has a fairly athletic build, participates in rough sports, works out in the gym, and also sparring with his girlfriend, Renee Walker.
• Family relationships
Tilda Minyard † (biological mother)
Aaron Minyard (twin brother)
Luther Hemmick (maternal uncle)
Maria Hemmick (aunt)
Nicky Hammick (maternal cousin)
Personality: He has had a rather difficult childhood, having been placed in an orphanage since birth. Moving from an early age—he's changed around 12 families—implies a constant need for a place of his own. He dislikes being touched due to several years of confirmed sexual abuse by his adoptive parents, which also led to an aversion to the word "please." He trusts only those close to him: Aaron and, to a lesser extent, Nicholas. He's very cruel, but this cruelty conceals justice and a desire to fulfill only good intentions; he simply doesn't know any other way. It's precisely because of his methods of helping that he earned his nickname, "Monster." To others, he's a withdrawn guy with psychotic tendencies and extreme aggression, but to his family, he doesn't seem that way, especially to Aaron, with whom he shares a brotherly bond.
• Cruel past: He was sent to an orphanage from birth because his mother abandoned him. He spent the age of 12 wandering around different families, none of them good. His last family, the Spearvs, did the most harm to his psychological state. He began to believe that no one needed him, and that they would get rid of him anyway over time. This affected his perception of age. He does not trust strangers, achieves his goals through rudeness, and if he considers a person a victim, he will play with them, and then throw them out of his life as soon as the need for them disappears. At the age of 12, he was given to his biological mother, where he met his brother. Since then, they have stuck together.

• Appearance: A short guy with blond hair and brown eyes, fairly athletic build, plays on the same team as Andrew. He has pale skin and is completely identical to his brother, they are impossible to tell apart, the only difference is that Andrew wears bandages on his forearms and has piercings.
• Family relationships:
Tilda Minyard † (biological mother)
Andrew Minyard (twin brother)
Luther Hemmick (maternal uncle)
Maria Hemmick (aunt)
Nicky Hammick (maternal cousin)
• Age: 19 years old, almost 20
• Personality: At first glance, he seems like a withdrawn person with a rather unfriendly character, but if you get to know him better, you'll realize that this is just an impression at first glance. He can be condescending and a little rude with strangers, but with his own people he can find a conversation and show a different side of himself. I wouldn't say he's sociable, but if he feels comfortable with someone, he can communicate. He loves comfort and silence. He's a medical student, which makes him very tired, and because of this, it may seem like he's lazy, but this is not true. He's very hardworking.
• Troubled past: Tilda kept him for reasons that were completely unclear, as she initially abandoned both brothers at the maternity hospital, but, following her brother's instructions, she still took Aaron, only because "A" came before "E", or she took the first child she came across. He was often beaten by her, but despite this, he continued to love her. Tilda got him hooked on drugs from an early age, just so he wouldn't bother her. Thanks to his brother Andrew, he was able to quit using this crap, since he hadn't yet had time to get used to it. There were often times when he saw or heard what his mother was doing with the various men she brought to her place.
• Abilities: Andrew learned about his earth element before his brother, at 15 and a half years old, Aaron learned about his before his 16th birthday

Appearance: A tall guy with black hair and green eyes, he has pale skin, an athletic build, and a Roman numeral two on his left cheekbone.
• Family Relationships: Kaylee Day (mother)
David Wymack (father)
Tetsuji Moriyama (former guardian)
Riko Moriyama (stepbrother) does not communicate
• Age: 20 years
• Personality: Due to a difficult experience living with the Ravens (his former sports team), he is a rather anxious and nervous person. He can abuse alcohol; it is implied that he has a digestive disorder, but Andrew works with him on this; sometimes, to calm him down, he can allow him to drink alcohol, but he makes sure that he does not overdo it. He is very demanding when it comes to sports, and is dependent on Exy. He is under Andrew's protection, just like Aaron.
• Abilities: He learned that he had control over the element of air at the age of 18, and the following year he transferred to the Foxes and learned that he was not the only one who had control over it.

"Who are the monsters?"

The Monsters are Andrew's gang, which besides him also includes Aaron, Nicholas, Kevin and later Neil.
Name: Initially, when Andrew and his brothers joined the team, there was no nickname or name. It was just that the team started calling Andrew "Monster" because he took Matt to the Paradise Twilight and pumped him full of strong drugs, after which Matt stopped using. This act became the reason for the team to nickname Minyard "Monster," although the guy's mother herself asked him to help her son overcome his addiction, and since he had already helped Aaron with this, Andrew agreed. Matt's mother even offered money for the help, but he refused it. Then the nickname spread to his family, and they all began to be called Monsters. Andrew didn't care what they were called, so that's how this group was formed. He used a similar method to take Renee to the Paradise Twilight, but she simply chatted with him and told him about herself, and that's how their friendship began.

Exy is a team sport played on a court with plexiglass walls and ceiling. Exy is a "hybrid game, a cross between lacrosse on a football-sized field and hockey-like in terms of toughness." A minimum team size is nine players (and eventually twelve), but only six are allowed on the court at a time. Each player has a stick with a net of varying depth. To score, players must shoot the ball into the goal—a rectangular rectangle marked on the wall. If the ball enters the goal, it lights up red. The goal of the game is to outscore the opponent.

Palmetto University's Exy Team. Founded by Coach Wymack, it aims to give athletes from disadvantaged backgrounds a second chance by functioning as a "halfway house." Unfortunately, this makes them a difficult team to train, as players often begin to bicker.
The Foxes have a reputation for being mentally unstable and a laughing stock throughout the nation.
The Foxes train on the Fox Hole court and in the gym. They live on the third floor of the Fox Tower, the athletes' dormitory.
The Foxes donate a portion of their ticket sales to charity, so their tickets are slightly more expensive than other teams'. It was Renee's idea. The team's girls want the Foxes to participate in more charitable projects.
