Chip is Zip's younger brother. He wears a tattered green hooded cape, dark clothes, goggles, and a mysterious black box he carries everywhere. No one knows what's inside. Zip constantly tries to get rid of his tattered hood, to no avail. Chip lives with Zip and Edward. Lana from the restaurant tries to befriend him through food—she's curious about what's in his box.

Princess ∆lice — Time Princess

∆lice is the embodiment of Time itself in the Time AU. Her origins are unknown even to the Guardians: she always evades questions. No one knows what she's capable of. ∆lice never ventures outside—she lives in the innermost chambers of the Londinium Clock Tower, reading books alone. She has no intention of harming anyone and attacks only if her peace is disturbed.

Appearance: Short, tousled brown hair with an ahoge. A white princess tiara and a black bow on the left side. A white blouse with gold buttons, a brown corset that laces up the back, and a short brown jacket with gold details—one white sleeve with ruffles. A layered skirt: the top layer is dull blue with black ribbons and bows, the second layer is dark blue with a slit in the front, the third is beige with a black border, and a white petticoat underneath. A gold cage bra is worn in the back. Long lace stockings, black Mary Janes.

Semi-transformed form: Same blouse—torn, unbuttoned, sweat-stained. Jacket and corset missing. Neck and ankle shackled. Two-layer skirt: torn light blue and dark dirty, beige intact. White stockings, badly torn. One shoe missing. Long black tail with a spiked spine. On the back are spikes with a gradient from black to gold, one wrapped in bandage. Ahoge also with a gold gradient.

Personality: Reserved, passive until disturbed. Avoids contact. Deadly to enemies and to those who enter her room in the Chalice Tower. Her backstory is hidden. The Guardians ask, but she remains silent. Oliver is obsessed with her, but she does not reciprocate. Miss Grace is not afraid of her, Miss Sasha is. Bunny ∆lice is a gift from the Guardians.

Skell, Ruby, and Riley are three citizens of Londinium whose lives become intertwined with the Rebellion and the Factory in their own ways.

Skell is a newspaper delivery boy at Engel's factory. Lower class. He wears an unbuttoned shirt with rolled-up sleeves, black overalls, black boots, and a shoulder bag filled with newspapers. He has shoulder-length black hair, black horns, and two white stripes on the left horns. He has thin, stick-figure-like limbs, pointed fingers, and one visible wing. Skell took the job because Engel was desperate—later he regretted it, but he stayed: there are almost no other newspaper delivery boys at the factory. He had outstanding debts, was kicked out of his home, and ended up on the street. Then he met Oliver and arranged to live in the Mutiny's safehouse. Skell is not a real recruit, just a homeless person who was given a roof over his head. He has a bicycle, rented from Engel. He hates his job.

Ruby is a middle-class advertising agent for the P&L fashion house. She wears a white shirt with puffed sleeves, a ruby ​​jabot, a long green skirt, and black boots. Her head resembles an early-generation television: one eye is a sound wave, one antenna is bent, and her hair is short. She shouldn't exist: televisions weren't invented in 1895. It's her strange appearance that attracts attention and clients to P&L. Ruby distributes leaflets and knocks on the townspeople's doors. In reality, she prefers working as a kindergarten teacher. She doesn't get along with Cubby, her co-worker, and Ruby was hired later.

Riley is a former newspaper factory worker and now a Mutiny recruit. She has long white hair in a ponytail, oversized glasses, a wide grin, a thin frame, shorts, a newsboy cap, and black gloves. Hyperactive, chaotic, and unpredictable, she's obsessed with Robbie, the Mutiny's mechanic and inventor, from whom he constantly hides. Riley joined the Mutiny specifically for him. Her factory skills make her useful, but her behavior creates chaos. She lives next door to Robbie.

Engel is the manager of the Londinium newspaper factory. High class. Green trousers, black shoes, a brown vest with a tail, a coat with a fur collar, and glasses. The heir to wealthy parents who died of illness—he was indifferent to their deaths. He has worked at the factory for nine years and was promoted after the old manager left. He hired Claire, who worked for him for a year. He is friends with Abby: he turned down a job and recommended Claire and Skell. When Claire joined the Rebellion, Engel forbade her from publishing materials about Oliver and ∆lice. She disobeyed, and an article about the Time Princess was published. The LPPD brought Engel in for questioning and forced him to remove all the materials. He worries about the employees, although outwardly he seems indifferent. He is the man between the police and the Rebellion, whose factory has become an unwitting mouthpiece for the truth.

Lizzie is the co-owner of P&L, a fashion house and atelier. High class. A green blouse with white puff sleeves and ruffles, a mermaid skirt with ruffles, a bow tie with a P&L pin, a bow in a hair bun. The designer draws the outfits, and Petunia sews. P&L started as a school project and has grown into an upper-class enterprise. She employs Ruby (advertising) and Cubby (custom orders). Oliver is their most regular client.

Petunia is the other co-owner of P&L and a dressmaker. Black turtleneck, two-tone jacket, green frill, buttoned skirt, and ballet flats. A former poor girl, her friendship with Lizzie is her greatest achievement in life. She only wears ballet flats—heels are uncomfortable. Her outfit is prettier than Lizzie's: she made it as a birthday present, one of her best pieces. Petunia sews from Lizzie's designs.

The trio are ordinary upper-class citizens, neither rebels nor police. But each is drawn into the events: Engel through the factory, and Claire, Lizzie, and Petunia through the rebel clients.

Claire, Abby, and Lana are three Rebellion recruits recruited by Oliver and Zip. All three are lower-class, broke people promised riches in exchange for their service. Their story is the darkest part of the Time AU plot.

Abby is a shoeshine boy by trade. His appearance: a loose white shirt with a black cord down the middle, his hair pulled back into a ponytail, brown pants, black shoes, and a dirty rag slung over his shoulder. He's deeply in debt, and Oliver promised him a fortune to join the Rebellion. Abby is cowardly, timid, anxious, but desperate: his debts left him no choice. Oliver sent him and Claire to steal a key from Miss Bloomy's watch shop. The alarm went off. Bloomy stabbed Abby with the keyblade, severing his right forearm—the very hand he used to hold the key. When they were cornered, Abby rushed to protect Claire, but was impaled on the blade and shot in the stomach. His attempt to save her was in vain.

Claire worked for Engel, the manager of the Londinium newspaper factory. Her appearance isn't described in detail on the wiki, but she's an ordinary lower-class girl recruited by Oliver for hard work: tracking and gathering information. Oliver hired her along with Abby, Lana, Bubble, and Kevin. It was Claire and Abby who were sent to steal the keys, and both were killed by Miss Bloomie. Claire suffered the same blow from the keyblade as Abby, but to the head. Miss Bloomie was fined for the "inhumane and unjust" method of murder, despite legally being entitled to lethal force.

Lana is a cook at Zip's restaurant. She wears mittens, a long green dress with a white petticoat, and a green apron. She is lower class, like Abby and Claire. One of Zip's recruits in the Mutiny, she cooks for the trio—Oliver, Zip, and Edward—as they discuss business at the restaurant table. Lana is talented in the kitchen, and it is she who feeds the entire Mutiny. Oliver initially planned to send her along with Abby and Claire, but she ended up staying at the restaurant—and this saved her life. Abby and Claire were pawns, whom Oliver abandoned to their deaths without hesitation. Lana survived only because she was more needed in the kitchen.

Oliver is the leader. Twenty-eight years old, ankle-length white hair in a ponytail with a bow, black horns. Green vest, white shirt, brown fur-lined jacket, knee-high boots. A wealthy snob and manipulator, obsessed with ∆lice—but with no real feelings for her. Obsessed with hygiene, which in the Victorian era equaled status. It was he who came up with the plan: to exploit rumors of the Time Princess for profit. He sent Abby and Claire to get the key—both died. He doesn't care about mercenaries; he uses them as tools. He infiltrated the Clock Tower using chronomancy. The LPPD is actively searching for him, but Mr. Demi respects him as an equal.

Zip is the Rebellion's second-in-command. She has two-toned hair: black on the left, white on the right, with an ahoge. She wears a multi-layered caplet with a bow and an olive green dress with white stripes. She is a high-status citizen, but dresses simply. She owns a restaurant—the Rebellion's unofficial headquarters, where the trio discuss business over Lana's meals. Snobbish, sharp-tongued, but devoted to her loved ones. Fiercely protective of her own. Reserved in her emotions. Chip's older sister. She recruited Abby and Claire on Oliver's orders—and their deaths are on her conscience. She is the glue, the heart of the Rebellion.

Edward is an inventor and Zip's partner. Spiky white hair in a ponytail, horns, steampunk goggles, black limbs with sharp fingers. A vest with brass buttons, suspenders, and boots with a metal plate. An aristocratic rebel from an industrial family who has chosen his own path. Confident, playful, charismatic. He defuses tension when Oliver pushes. Lives with Zip and Chip. Provides the Rebellion with technical prowess.

The trinity complements each other: Oliver is the brain and purpose, Zip is the heart and connection to reality, and Edward is the hands and technology. They are bound by childhood, trust, and a common cause, but their motives are different: Oliver craves power and ∆lice, Zip is loyal to her friend, and Edward is loyal to Zip and his inventive spirit.
