The thumb

Carmen was a young woman who wore The Seed of Light Project's standard labcoat, unbuttoned and opened over her olive-green dress shirt, her short, black miniskirt, and olive-green shoes with darker-shaded tips. Carmen also tied her hair in a ponytail on the left-side of her head, adorned with a red hair accessory—a bear hairclip.

In Library of Ruina, Carmen acts a lot more ambiguously malign than she was said to be at Lobotomy Corporation. Despite many of the Sefirot had nothing but good things to say about her (and Ayin, in particular really views her with nothing but praise), she is now a shapeless, omnipresent force who terrorizes the City through creating Distortions (many who are more than capable of destroying entire Backstreets or Nests). On top of this, she was also heavily implied to be advising Argalia to get all opposition out of L Corp's former Nest so they take the Light and presumably re-enact the Seed of Light using it, and at one point even tells him to surround and kill Iori. Carmen has ascended into the Voice of the Distortions capable of Distorting those who are emotionally weak, while those who were capable of resisting her come out with E.G.O. She was also responsible for suggesting Angela to use the invitations for two reasons; to regain the Light required to unleash the Seed of Light that Angela denied full effect of, and to have Angela act onto her destructive desires of becoming human. As a result, she was also known as the "Will of the Library". When she was met by Angela in the Light, she tells her that she will continue acting as the voice of the Distortions "until the Cityfolk learn to look at their true selves and love themselves for who they are" before fading. However, Carmen purposefully acting malignantly may be an incorrect interpretation. It may simply be Carmen reminding people what their inner desires are, and considering the concepts of Id, Ego, and Superego, this could be the case.

Distortions (Hangul: 뒤틀림, Dwiteullim) are monstrous entities that arise from individuals who forsake themselves to their emotions and the lulling words of a voice heard by no one but them. The process by which humans distort is referred to as the Distortion Phenomenon.

No official announcement regarding Distortions has been offered to the general public, and the average City denizen has a subpar understanding of how they work.[1] Limbus Company is one of few organizations that has stepped up as a corporation specializing in Distortion prevention, control, and research

Angela has short light-blue hair, yellow eyes, and pale skin. In her Librarian attire, she wears a dark outfit with a long coat, a white and black cravat, and heels. Her pendant attached to her cravat is an amber color with the orbs on her heels sharing the same highlight color. She always carries a large book with her.

Her alternative outfit seen from Canard Episode 1, originating from the True Ending of Lobotomy Corporation, is a complete dress of black feathers, covering her from neck to feet. Angela's hair is slightly longer and more unkempt in this form, due to immediately cutting it after untying her ponytail she had in the ending of Lobotomy Corporation.

Personality
Angela has a serious, logical, and concise attitude that she reflects through her cordial manners, also expressing visible distaste for rudeness and brutality. She has only interests in her own goal: to live a life not bounded to a place, and she will use all the methods available to achieve those objectives.

She knows when to take a situation lightly or seriously when there are tense topics or questions that remind her of the past. Angela is curious about the world outside of the facility she was in when it was underground, and she uses Roland as well as The Library's Guests to learn more about The City.

Roland has black short hair, pale skin, black eyes, and wears a simple black suit with a white shirt, a black tie, and black shoes.
he is 33 and is height is 178 cm (~5'10")
The black silence
The black silence is known for its gloves that, along with storing all its weapons, muffled all sound around its surroundings save for its weapons cutting through the air. it has too the Perception-blocking mask Wich is a black mask that covers your whole face

Roland has a casual and relaxed personality, often clashing with Angela and the Patron Librarians. Being a person who has hit rock bottom, he has come to accept what he cannot change or control, while trying to survive and do his best in any situation, expressing this through his saying "That's that and this is this". He also believes that everyone is responsible for their own choices and that any resulting consequences are entirely their own fault - even if someone else's choice led to those consequences.

In his conversations with Angela, he is shown to have a rather deadpan and sometimes sarcastic demeanor, often teasing her about her lack of knowledge about the City, and how she does not open up to him very much. This usually makes Roland explain the various aspects of the City - the different Districts, the many Associations, Syndicates, and the other groups that operate throughout the City. He is not always knowledgeable of all its aspects, such as the Ruins. Overall, Roland is a person who tries to make the best of his current situation, has a sense of logic and fairness, and shows some aversion when in stressful situations.
His sarcastic personality, however, is a facade hiding Roland's nihilistic and cynical worldview, having witnessed first-hand the ugliness of the City and the Wings as a Fixer during the Smoke War.
He loves cooking

he can't die because of Angela Reviving him but he's able to feel pain

Gebura has long red hair tied back in an enormous, messy ponytail that reaches down to her thighs, with two fringes framing her face. Her face is slightly scarred, resembling her appearance through the cognition filter at Lobotomy Corporation, and she always has a cigarette in her mouth, stating that it's part of enjoying her new human body. She wears the Patron Librarian uniform, in the form of a red jacket with a high collar, a tie adorned with a glossy red brooch, and maroon leggings with what appears to be loafer shoes.

Personality
Gebura's personality is almost the same as in the prequel when she was a Sephirah: straightforward in a way that can come off as rude, but far more calm and cool-headed now that she has accepted her memories from the past, accepting that unrelenting anger will only hurt her fellow Sephirah and having learned to trust them and her assistant librarians, acting as a mentor to them.[1] Along with that, she seems to be more relaxed than before, often taking breaks to nap or as she calls it, "meditating with her eyes closed".

she can't die because of Angela Reviving him but he's able to feel pain

Binah has jet-black hair cut into an asymmetrical fringe, with the left side reaching down to her chest and its backside colored golden. She wears a modified version of the Patron Librarian uniform: a black coat with a golden trim and fur on its shoulder similar to her Arbiter coat. Underneath, she wears a black knee-long dress with a black-yellow necktie adorned with a glossy golden brooch, along with knee high boots. She also has a beauty mark next to her left eye, and wears two rectangular golden earrings in place of the one in her Arbiter outfit.

In combat, she wears her Arbiter outfit: a completely black fur cape with a straight overcoat underneath, with the only color being the golden trims of their hexagonal patterns.

Personality
Binah is a wise, dignified, and mysterious person. Although she possesses an immense amount of knowledge about The City and its denizens as a former Arbiter, she often speaks in verbose metaphors and similes, rarely ever giving a straight answer. Her old sadism seems to have mellowed out, having accepted that she's no longer the same person she was as an Arbiter, and although she still finds some enjoyment in receiving Guests and intimidating her colleagues, she seems to enjoy their company, acting kinder towards them and openly inviting them from tea.[1] She also seems to have taken an elder role within the Library, often referring to other Patron Librarians and Guests as "children".

The Library (Hangul: 도서관, Doseogwan) is a library made from the Seed of Light and the remains of the Headquarters Facility of Lobotomy Corporation. It resides in the middle of the Nest of District 12, replacing the original Headquarters of L Corp, now a fallen Wing. Angela is the director of the Library and its creator, able to control the power within the Library along with the other Patron Librarians.

The Library is portrayed as a large, towering structure composed of 10 Floors that contains infinite internal space. It focuses on storing Books from the people who die inside it. To access the Library, an Invitation has to be used, and those who sign the Invitation become the Guests. The Invitation offers Books of interest of the Guests, and if they do survive the ordeals within the Library, they can take the Books and leave. Otherwise, they will become Books.

In-game, The Library acts as the main hub where the player can organize their teams of Librarians, their Key Pages and Combat Pages, additional equipment, check information of the Abnormality Pages, and send Invitations. It is composed of two screens.

Esther appears to wear a long white coat over a black suit that buttons up to his diaphragm. Compared to the other proxies, Esther is quite tall, but not as tall as Gloria. On the back of his belt he wields a black Longsword-like sword that he uses in battle. His hair is very long and straight, which also covers his right eye. Along with the other proxies he also sports some metal on his collar of the cloak, his shoes, his sword, and a button holding up the cloak on his right shoulder with a piece of string. On his left shoulder vague marks of metal can be seen, similar to that of a higher-up military official.

Personality
Unlike the other 2 proxies and the messenger, Yan, Esther remains cold and calculated in his word choice and delivery. His opinion of prescripts as the system of IndexProselytesIcon.pngThe Index remains neutral and he does not object to loopholes being made to circumvent the task of the prescript. Even beyond death, he still accepts the prescript as his ultimate destiny.

Gloria is by the far the tallest of the three Proxies and appears to have a completely mechanical body. Her bulky, oblong form is almost completely obscured by a large white Index cloak with a golden collar and badge, revealing only her head and five mechanical arms. Her flat, circular head is connected to a long, segmented neck, which has two pipes, producing what appears to be steam or smoke, connecting from the darkness of her cloak. The front of Gloria's head sports a dark hole with a red pupil which acts as her "eye", and changes shape and color depending on her mood. Glora's choice of weaponry lie beyond the reaches of what can be seen by her cloak, but when attacking something (either in a prebattle cutscene or in battle against the Library,) she wields a set of 5 identical triangular daggers.

Personality
Gloria has a bizarrely upbeat, enthusiastic personality, contrasting with the somber and serious personality of the other Proxies. She also seems very nonchalant about carrying out Prescripts, keeping a bubbly disposition no matter how gruesome the task given appears to be.

Hubert is an imposing man with short black hair and dark eyes. He wears the uniform of the Index Proxies, consisting of a long white coat embellished with a gold collar and fastener, on top of a black suit with golden accents. Additionally, he dons a metal mask that covers his nose and mouth. He has a vertical scar over his left eye.

Hubert wears golden gauntlets that appear to change shape to suit combat, as shown by his combat pages 'Somber Procuration' and 'Decapitation'.

Personality
Hubert is one of the more quiet Proxies, following the Prescript with no resistance and completing each job to the agreed consensus of Gloria and Esther. He follows the prescript to its description, but counters action when the Prescript has been followed, as noted by Hubert's comment that the Prescript did not specify to bring down the speared bodies the Prescript ordered dead, as asked by the Blue Reverberation. Like Esther, he does not show anger at his co-worker's betrayal, and reminds Gloria that what matters is that the Prescript is followed.

Yan is a light-skinned young man sporting white hair with black streaks tied into a long side ponytail. Much like other notable members of the Index, he dons a white cloak fitted with gold ornaments over a black suit. As a Messenger, Yan was bestowed a personalized greatsword adorned with golden chains and a lock.

Despite being a Messenger of the Index, Yan differs noticeably from his associates, being much more skeptical and choosing to view the Prescripts as a mere ordinance with no higher significance to it instead of revering them. He's largely somber and ceremonious, but he also expresses discomfort at the lengths some citizens have to go in order to carry out their Prescripts as well as sympathizing with their woes. He cares for others, including his enemies, as he pleads with TheThumbIcon.png the Thumb not to assault the Library, as that would severely weaken their forces in Nest L, even if that'd bring him nearly to death.

It's later revealed that Yan had experiences carrying out abhorrent acts under the guidance of Prescripts before becoming a Messenger, causing him to hate it. Resultantly, he wants to show his free will by forging Prescripts for others instead of letting them follow the Prescripts' will.

Prescripts
Prescripts are created in massive underground vaults by a pendulum with ink in it, which is linked up to move according to a very advanced seismograph. This mechanism absorbs all vibration in the city, from explosions to breathing, and effectively forms a city-wide surveillance network. This pendulum writes in a nonsense-language on cloth, which is processed and decoded by hundreds of spinning wheels, weaving it into a readable Prescript. It is then stamped and shuttled to a Messenger by a pneumatic tube system.

The Prescripts are said to represent the will of the city. Whether this is true or not, or what such a statement would even mean, is unknown, however it is undeniable that the Prescripts are far more coherent and knowledgeable than their chaotic method of creation would imply. It is possible that the prescripts themselves are a god of the city, created from people's wish to follow instructions and to be free from the responsibility of forging their own path in life, though again what this would mean is uncertain.

Worthy of note is the fact that, as intelligent as the Prescripts are, they do not seem to have much care for their followers, oftentimes giving them seemingly impossible instructions or directives that would lead to their death or the sacrifice of their normal life. For example, the Prescript to follow Yan's fake Prescripts led to the deaths of three Proxies and many of their Proselytes, as well as the loss of their foothold in L-Corp's nest. Regardless of this, rigid adherence to the Prescripts gives the members of the Index order and stability in much the same way as the strict hierarchy of the Thumb.

this section will NOT affect how the thumb works. the thumb and index have different ways of working

Proselytes are initiate-level members of IndexProselytesIcon.png The Index. They are common followers of the Prescripts who receive — and accept — an offer to become a Proselyte via a Prescript. By doing so, they choose to completely devote themselves to fulfilling the Prescripts and nothing else, even if it may cost them their own lives.

-Proxies are the executors of IndexProselytesIcon.png The Index. They are former Index Proselytes who have shown enough dedication to be given a promotion by the Prescripts. A competent Proselyte may also be promoted to a Messenger instead, as Proxies and Messengers are the two main upward paths for the Index's disciples. In either case, upon being promoted, the Proselytes' blindfold is removed and they are given a personalized sword by the Prescript's instruction.8 Proxies typically command a familia of five or six Proselytes, who help the Proxy carry out the will of the Prescripts while learning the Index's ways via the Proxy's guidance

-Messengers
Alternatively, a Proselyte might be given the rank of Messenger: People in charge of receiving new Prescripts and delivering them to their respective addressee. Nonetheless, they're skilled combatants, being given a unique sword as well.

-Weavers
An exceedingly obscure rank, so much that the majority of the Index ignore their existence and the number of existing Weavers is unknown even to themselves despite their importance. A Prescript will lead somebody to a massive, underground vault, where an ancient pendulum swings with every movement of the City above, making swathes of ink in a series of threads, which are then weaved by an array of looms into a proper Prescript. Their work involves the proper operation of these machines, revered as "the gods of the City", along with stamping the new Prescripts before sending them by a system of pneumatic tubes to a Messenger to be delivered.

The Index is a Syndicate made out of people who have been "chosen" by the Prescripts:[1] mysterious, seemingly arbitrary orders delivered to them in form of pieces of paper that are given to members of the Syndicate, their subsidiaries, people in their turf, etc. and must be followed unquestionably, said to be omniscient and represent "The will of the City".[2] The tasks given could be as tame as "Deliver a bacon pizza to Danny's doorstep on 8th St. before 10 AM sharp on September 14th", brutal as "If the first person you meet outside today answers your greetings by lifting their right hand, take their heart out; if the person ignores your greetings, remove your own heart from your body"[3], to ambiguous as "Kill the painting you've drawn". Though absurd and sadistic at first glance, each Prescript is issued to benefit the Index in one way or another, although few know who exactly writes them and why, and those who questioned them are almost always dealt with by the Proxies.

Failing to complete a Prescript usually warrants ruthless punishment, though circumstances such as its severity, the penalty, the person in charge to execute it, or even if they should be punished at all is determined by the Prescripts as well.

The Index is organized in several roles, each one of them personally picked and promoted by the Prescripts:

-Proselytes

-Proxies

-Messengers

-Weavers

The work With the Prescripts

Like the other two members of The Carnival, Gamma is a tall figure dressed in a wide grey robe with an expressionless white face mask. As depicted in its character portrait, Gamma's chest area is filled with eight bloodied claws resembling mandibles surrounding a gaping "mouth", all vertically arranged. Gamma's head can also split into two. A number of clawed mechanical legs also appear from under Gamma's robe.

Personality
Gamma appears to be the most inquisitive and cautious of The Carnival trio. Gamma possesses a male voice which sounds the least mechanical of the trio.

Like the other two members of the Carnival, Beta is a tall figure dressed in a wide grey robe with an expressionless white face mask. Beta's robe is drawn closed with three buckles, hiding everything within. Beta's combat sprite shows that it possesses the same tentacles and appendages as the other members underneath its robes, which Beta uses to attack and consume its victims.

Beta appears to be the least thoughtful of the three Carnival members, more concerned about finding tasty prey and making fine silk than anything else. Beta's voice is also the highest and youngest-sounding of the three.

Like the other two members of the Carnival, Alpha is a tall figure dressed in a wide grey robe with an expressionless white face mask. As depicted in their character portrait, Alpha possesses a large number of black tentacles underneath their robes along with a gaping "mouth" in the middle of their body, filled with lighter grey tentacles and six clawed appendages. Each of these appendages is bloodied.

Alpha appears to be the most composed and level-headed of the Carnival, urging the other two Carnival members to focus on their Prescript and not complain or deviate. Alpha's voice is constantly pitch-modulated, and Alpha is seen to be the first to deliver greetings to each visitor or new face the Carnival encounters during their story episode.

Allen has short slicked-back black hair which exposes the scar on his forehead. He has a rather solemn-looking expression with grey eyes. He wears a slightly different uniform compared to the other Night Awl members, indicating his higher rank. For the uniform, he wears a long black coat which extends to his ankle that hangs on his shoulders. Beneath the coat, he wears a white dress shirt, a gray buttoned waistcoat with white stripes, and a black tie tucked underneath it. He has black pants accompanied with black dress shoes.

Furthermore, his right leg is missing from the calf and is instead replaced with a peg leg featuring a sharp end point, which he occasionally uses in battle, as shown on his exclusive combat page. Additionally, he also wields a stiletto held in his right hand which he mainly uses during combat.

Personality
Allen is rather jaded and tired, speaking with a blunt tone and not hesitating to tell the other members they're dragging the crew down. On top of this, he's calm and coolheaded even when told that the members of the Night Awls would be purged after the insolence of his boss.1 However, from one of his victory cry lines, he's shown to be concerned over the wellbeing of the others, hinting at a more caring side of his personality

Zulu is a bald, large, muscular man with brown eyes, dark skin, a scar near his left eyebrow, and a large amount of strength-augmenting tattoos on his arms and chest. He wears a form-fitting black tank top, black camo-patterned cargo pants with a black belt, black boots, brown gloves, and a black bandana covering his mouth. He fights bare-handed.

Personality
Zulu is a relatively calm but also cynical individual who dislikes unnecessary brutality and considers consequences before taking action.

Dino has dark skin with tattoos seen on his arms, shoulders, and the side of his stomach. He is shirtless, wearing only a pair of dark blue pants and grey shoes. He also wears a number of spiked accessories, including a collar, a bracelet, and a belt. He fights with his bare fists, strengthened by his combat augment tattoos.

Personality
Between himself, Gyeong-mi, and Zulu, Dino is the most level-headed and analytical, to a cautious degree. He tries to avoid actions done out of blind rage and also tries to stop the others (namely Gyeong-mi) from doing so. Dino is also highly self-assured against enemies who he views as weaker than him.

Gyeong-mi is a large, muscular man who wears a form-fitting black shirt, black pants with with a belt, and black shoes. His forearms are covered with black wrappings, partially obscuring the tattoos which augment his strength. He also wears black rings on his fingers and a silver chain, all of which are workshop products which help boost his combat ability.

Personality
Gyeong-mi is a hot-headed, crass, and arrogant brute who easily loses his temper and flies into a violent rampage. He does not care to listen to others or their advice, and is confident that his strength can overcome his enemies. Gyeong-mi also places a large amount of respect on promises, and is severely angered if they are broken.

Yang wears an open, partially-buttoned with sleeves rolled up to his elbows, exposing Irezumi-style tattoos of similar style to Sayo and Gin. He wears plain black pants and shoes, fashioned with a studded belt and brown wristband on his left hand. He has black hair tied back into a ponytail, and can often be seen with an unlit cigarillo in his mouth. His weapon of choice is a katana.

Yang is a loyal subordinate to Sayo in the Kurokumo Clan. He has little sympathy for nest-dwellers, readily carrying out orders of mutilation without hesitation, and even making light of the situation by responding, "Yes, dame~" when given the order. He's rather sadistic in how he carries out 'punishments', though his methods hardly differ from the likes of Sayo or Gin who are equally unmerciful.

Sayo wears a loose-fitting, off-the-shoulder black Kimono fastened with a sash and wears a pair of Zori. Her hair is tied up in a bun, decorated with chopsticks. She has tattoos plastered on her shoulders in a similar fashion to Irezumi, a style of tattooing on the body performed by permanently in-laying the ink beneath the outer epidermis of the skin, using handheld tools to do so. This style and method is most commonly done from within the Japanese mafia, the Yakuza. She also wields a Katana, to further implement the idea of the Kurokumo clan being in similar nature of the Yakuza.

Sayo is a cunning and ruthless woman and clan leader. She has strong business sense, entrusted to carry out delivery of Nuovo Fabric to the Thumb , as well as producing income through 'protection' rackets that force Nest dwellers to pay a fee, else they face violent mutilation. Sayo is rather merciless, likely a mindset she adopted growing up in the Backstreets "covered in filth and blood". Though her policies are extreme, she understands her strength and decides to back away from fighting the lone Index messenger, knowing he would overpower her. However she still challenges formidable enemies to duel, such as the L'heure du Loup, to which she loses, and accepts the terms to go to the Library or face death.

The Stray Dogs are a subsidiary Syndicate of The Thumb.[1] A pack of violent and rude thugs which controls the Backstreets of District 22, their main weapons are their own bodies, enhanced with various body augment procedures such as tattoos.

members: Gyeong-mi, Dino and Zulu

The Kurokumo Clan is a subsidiary Syndicate of TheThumbIcon.png The Thumb. Distinguishable by its achromatic colors, irezumi-style augmentation tattoos, and katanas, they seek to benefit from the collapse of Lobotomy Corporation by taking over the territory of the fallen Wing.

The Kurokumo Clan is a Syndicate active in the southern parts of the City (but otherwise unheard of in the north).[2] Its members wear casual clothing in distinctly dark colors and can also be identified by the dark cloud irezumi patterns of their augmentation tattoos. As a powerful Syndicate of the Backstreets, the Kurokumo Clan gains money and influence from controlling territory and extorting its inhabitants for "protection money." To that ends, the Kurokumo Clan's large size benefits it in territorial disputes, especially when fighting to control the grounds of former Nests whose controlling Wings have fallen.

Members: Sayo and Yang

The Thumb is known as the most refined and polite of the Fingers, but this class comes at a heavy price. The Thumb maintains its class through an absolute hierarchy where any deviance from the order is punished with blood. To the Thumb, class can only be obtained through hard effort; thus, respect and total obedience must naturally be given from the lower-ranked to the higher-ranked. When in the presence of someone with higher rank, even the permission to speak must be granted by them in order to show respect.[2] Even merely insulting someone of a higher rank is punishable through losing a body part, while to question the capo dei capi is an immediate death sentence. Furthermore, the Thumb extends its rules to outsiders and even its own enemies. No matter who the Thumb is dealing with, whoever on either side has a higher rank is to be given full respect by the other side. Because of this, the Thumb is one of the last Syndicates that Fixers want to be involved with.[3]

The Thumb also has the highest organizational power among the Five Fingers. This is in part due to the rigid hierarchy, but also in part due to the Thumb maintaning a broad network of subsidiary Syndicates which it sends to do its bidding. These subsidiaries are not formally part of the Thumb but work under them as affiliates.[4] The actual ranked members of the Thumb are only sent out when absolutely necessary. Thumb subsidiaries must also respect the Thumb's rules of respect, especially their leaders, because a failure on the part of a leader will lead to all of the Syndicate's members bearing the consequences.

Hierarchy
There are four ranks in the Thumb's structure.

-A Soldato, or Soldier/Goodfella, is a common foot soldier of the Thumb.

-A Capo, or Captain, is the leader of a squad of Soldatos, who can undertake independent operations while following and enforcing the orders of those above.

-A Sottocapo, or Underboss, is a direct subordinate of the Thumb's highest authority having executive command of Thumb operations in a given region. The Sottocapi are also responsible for managing the Thumb's families, or subsidiaries, with each Sottocapo given a select number of families to dictate.[6]

-The Capo dei capi, or Godfather, is the leader of the Thumb as a whole. This position is filled by a single person who dictates to all members of the Thumb in the entire City and is never to be questioned.

The Thumb's members are formidable combatants, both ranged and in close quarters. The Thumb's primary weapons are muskets, using ammunition manufactured exclusively for them by underground Workshops. Because of their exorbitant costs, ammunition is only used when necessary. To save money, the Thumb's muskets are also deadly in close quarters, affixed with bayonets and hard buttstocks that can easily crush an opponent's jaw. The muskets are made using the hardest available wood and technologies from many different Workshops, including acceleration and mass manipulation boosts.10 Other members, such as Boris, simply use raw strength as an alternative.[12]

Kalo is a middle aged man with short white hair and chinstrap beard, with multiple scars on his face and a prosthetic right hand. He wears a black suit and jacket, as well as his red Thumb coat hanging from his shoulders. Kalo carries a cane and a silver pistol, which he uses in combat.

Kalo has a stoic and authoritative attitude. As a member of the Thumb, Kalo reflects its values and follows its rules to the letter, expecting his subordinates to respect hierarchy in every way, and punishing them through bodily mutilation upon their failure to do so. Kalo is shown to be somewhat forgiving for a person in his position within the Finger, as seen by his decision to only take the left hand of the Patriarch of the Kurokumo Clan, highlighted by the patriarch thanking him for this mercy.

Boris has short combed black hair and displays an average physique. Along with the usual Thumb attire followed by a black suit and red coat, he wears sunglasses, smokes a cigarette and has a ring on his right index and left middle fingers. When in combat, Boris wears steel knuckles.

Boris has a tough and straightforward attitude. He's very confident in his physical strength, preferring engage with his fists as he's the only member of The Thumb to not utilize guns, instead relying on his steel knuckles to do the job.

He greatly values the Thumb's members and their rules, often enforcing them with a harmful display of physical strength.

Boris is a Capo of the Thumb, taking a role similar to a captain for the Syndicate and the value of a Grade 1 Fixer. He is first shown in a summit organized by the Thumb alongside fellow Capi and his Underboss, making sure every Thumb subsidiary present in the meeting is following the rules accordingly. The summit comes to a conclusion that every Thumb subsidiary will leave L Corp's Nest and instead the occupation will be conducted by The Thumb only. After a reluctant agreement of the present Thumb subsidiaries, Boris and other Capi lead the Thumb's forces into trying to take over L Corp's Nest before other parties, like the Index, could do so before them.

After an indefinite amount of time in fighting to occupy the ruined Nest, Boris, along with his fellow Capi, Katriel and Denis have a meeting with their Underboss, Kalo. Kalo comments on he's found an invitation to the Library, which offered the group a book about the Liu Association. Such book could grant them a great advantage against in occupying almost half of L Corp's Nest, but before the group can continue any further, a messenger of the Index, Yan, suddenly appears in the room. Yan tries to warn them that going to the Library alongside Kalo could potentially mean a Sottocapo of the Thumb becoming a book and that such information could bring a great advantage to The Index.

Denis has short, messy, brown hair that covers his right eye. His eyes are green and he has a medium complexion. Denis wears a slightly different outfit than the usual Thumb uniform, a grey coat over a black suit that is wrapped with a black cloth which also covers a black scarf or turtleneck. He also has the standard Thumb coat, red with a golden trim, slung over his shoulders. When using a ranged or his exclusive combat page, he is shown to have a set of sharp, shark-like teeth.

Denis is one of the more reserved members of the Thumb, but no less loyal. He is well aware of the consequences that come with disrespecting Kalo, and even carries out said punishments when he cuts out Katriel's tongue for her perceived rudeness to the Library's director, Angela. He appears to have a lesser-known maniacal personality shown when he shoots from his rifle, expressing bloodlust.

Katriel is a tan-skinned woman with long, wavy, purple hair with choppy bangs. She has amber eyes and round, wireframe glasses. She wears the standard Thumb uniform, being a dark grey suit under a gold-lined red overcoat draped over her shoulders, a gold badge on the left lapel, and black shoes. In addition to that, she also wears a belt of grenades. This is despite the fact that throwable explosives are considered a taboo in the City. In combat, she wields a double-barreled rifle with a bayonet attached.

Frigid, Unreserved, Acute

Lei Heng is an imposing man of strong build and tall stature, seemingly surpassing two meters. He has a tan complexion and brown eyes. He has slick black hair that reaches his shoulders, parted in the middle and partially tied back in a ponytail, and with a dyed golden strand on the left. Lei Heng sports some stubble, and is seen smoking a cigar.

Lei Heng dons an outfit of the Thumb, consisting of rose-red trousers, a matching jacket with four golden bars over his left lapel, over a brown shirt with an open collar and golden fastenings. Over his shoulders, he wears a long overcoat that matches his suit, and wears brown gloves. His suit jacket's sleeves and the lower half of the overcoat appear to have an ornate flower pattern printed on them. He carries a large dadao[1] that features exhaust pipes for the use of propellants, attached to his hip through an ammunition belt around his waist.

As a high ranking member of the Thumb, Lei Heng has a nonchalant demeanor, being used to receiving respect and carrying no regard for those beneath him. He appears confident in his role and comfortable in most situations, talking to Ryōshū in a casual way despite her obvious dislike for him, going as far as to speak down to her, knowing full well the Sinner wouldn't be able to retaliate against someone like him.

Valencina is a tall, older woman with sea green eyes and long, bushy dirty-blonde hair that covers her right eye. She wears a Thumb uniform consisting of a rose-red jacket, trousers, wide brimmed hat and untied ribbon over an ivory shirt with the top buttons undone. The right lapel of her jacket has a golden pin with one arrow pointing rightwards. She is seen smoking a cigar, and has black gloves with light palms. While not visible in her sprites, she is said to have the Relic "the Eye of Odin" in place of her right eye, a mechanical eye with a sea green iris and a segmented sclera. As Ryōshū damaged the Relic using Arayashiki, the wound reopens when Valencina is in its presence, at one point causing a cascade of blood to cover her face. Her death sprite suggests she wears a black eyepatch over it, which has a golden cross printed on the front. She carries two swords, one being a rapier with a revolver barrel at its guard kept in a red sheath, and the other, a curved sword with yellow ribbons on its grip kept in an orange sheath. Both have golden, ribbed blades.

Valencina is an arrogant, booze-loving woman with a violent, foul-mouthed personality. She has an excessively short temper, taking to physical abuse whenever she feels frustrated regardless of if she lacks excuses to justify the behavior. While she aims to benefit greatly off the cultivation of Ryōshū's abilities, Valencina regards the woman with no shortage of disrespect and contempt, and has no qualms about treating the others around her with the same discourtesy. Despite her untimely discharge, Valencina continues to carry traits typical of the Thumb, demanding respect from those she views as her inferiors and taking to injury as the first response to failure. By striking down, Valencina affirms her perceived status as someone deserving of more than the stagnation of the House of Spiders.

Lucio is a tall young man, with violet eyes and light gray hair split neatly to reveal his face, tied into a long ponytail that reaches his waist. He wears a Thumb uniform consisting of a rose-red vest, trousers, and a neatly buttoned ivory shirt fastened with a dark red tie, with his sleeves rolled up past his forearms. His hands are covered by rose-red gloves of the same color as his vest and trousers. His vest is fastened by Sam Browne-style double shoulder belt, with a golden pin with one arrow pointing rightwards on his left breast. He carries two golden swords contained in wine-red scabbards, with gilded hilts and tips on the scabbards - one bastard sword with a striped pattern on his back, the other smaller with a spiral pattern at his left hip.

Quiet and steadfast, Lucio carries an air of professionalism unlike his mentor. Even in the face of immense adversity and scolding, he remains calm and collected, ready to continue his efforts even while confronted by the possibility of loss. Given his role as a possible tutor, he is expected to be prim, proper, and dutiful. Though he frequently criticizes his opponents' forms in combat, his words are not as harsh as his master's, as he attempts to use them as a point of growth rather than disappointment.

Despite Valencina's abuse of Lucio, he feels permanently indebted to her for feeding and sheltering him, and is not willing to admit to her cruelness when asked. However, his combat passives demonstrate that he actually burns with resentment towards her, and has long been aware of her depravity, considering it his responsibility to eventually take her life.
