Canto III

Procedures to modify one's organic body are extremely common in the City, being used by people of all walks of life, from wealthy Nest citizens, to laborers of the Backstreets. Body modification procedures are widely considered necessary for anyone who undertakes Fixer work.[1] Through these procedures, one's entire body can be modified, except for the brain, which must be kept intact.Prosthetic Substitution
Prosthetic use consists in the substitution of organic body parts for mechanical or bionic ones. This can be partial, or full-body; In the latter case, the user's brain is removed from their body, and placed into the new, prosthetic one.Full-body substitution is an irreversible procedure, and therefore usually ill-advised compared to other options. It is often chosen by people in need of money, who are then able to sell their old body and their organs for a good sum, or by people who do repetitive work, as a completely mechanical body is able to withstand the stress better than an organic one, and is not subject to physical needs such as that of food and drink.[2] Full-body prosthetics instead require the use of brain fluid and fuel to keep the user's brain and body in good condition, as well as occasional physical maintenance.[3] It appears that in current models, fuel might have been replaced by electrical energy.Prosthetics can be of varying quality and aesthetics. Low-quality prosthetic substitution comes at the cost of the loss of one's senses. This can be overcome through the purchase of desire stimulation chips or medicines, or that of a more expensive prosthetic, as high-quality models come with sensory organs. The most expensive models are capable of adjusting the user's emotions or completely shutting off desires.As of current times, full-body prosthetics most commonly resemble mechanical human bodies with heads of various shapes, as those shown during Canto III, that had become widely popular in Calw in the years preceding the start of the main story.

Emil Sinclair was born to a wealthy family in Calw, a small town located in Nest K that was referred to as "The Holy Site of Nest K's Prosthetic Industry". The majority of the town's residents had a love for prosthetics, and Sinclair's father owned a small prosthetics company. At some point, his father's company was able to secure a contract with P Corp., fully supporting the technology that was being developed. This contract ensured that the entire family would be able to get the latest full-body prosthetics, something that only Sinclair was not excited for. Before long, his father, mother, and sister had all undergone the procedure to replace their bodies with full prosthetics and Sinclair was the last one remaining. The life he had before where the family would share meals together was gone, and he would find himself feeling isolated from his family the more he hid his true feelings prosthetics from them.As this shift in his life was taking place, Sinclair one day found himself feeling left out of a conversation at school and, without thinking, shared the news of his father's contract with P Corp. that he had been told to keep secret regarding. While for a moment the focus of attention was on him, it quickly shifted elsewhere and Sinclair was left to sit with his thoughts about his future prosthetics procedure. As the class cleared out, Kromer, a girl Sinclair had barely spoken to before, introduced herself, having noticed the brief flash of reluctance on Sinclair's face when he had told the class about how he would be getting prosthetics soon. She explained that she agreed with him and found the idea of ​​prosthetics filthy, and quickly become his only confidant regarding the matter and a friend of his. Kromer cleverly took advantage of his fears and made a promise that she would spare him having to undergo the replacement procedure, so long as he would help her with a grudge of her own.

Gregor is a man slightly below average height, with golden-brown eyes, dark brown hair tied back in a ponytail, and a 5 o'clock shadow. He wears half-rimmed black glasses. In most appearances, Gregor is shown with a cigarette in his mouth.He wears the standard Limbus Company uniform, consisting of a white collared shirt, black vest, red tie, black pants, and an ID card, as well as a long coat, which he does not typically wear. His sleeves are both rolled up to his elbows, and a tattoo reading the word "UNGEZIEFER" is visible on his left forearm. His most notable feature is his right arm, a segmented limb that terminates in a massive, claw-like appendage.Gregor is a friendly, easygoing Sinner with a casual manner of speaking. Compared to many of his coworkers, Gregor is considerably amicable, and tends to maintain a cursory attitude. He is not strict nor hostile to those around him, and Dante looks to Gregor as someone who would willingly uplift the group's mood in dour situations. He also possesses a "cutesy" side to his personality, usually poking through when he is embarrassed. Both Canto II and III see him acting out a bit and failing miserably, leading to him growing flustered and sheepish. This comes with a tendency to use tacky phrases, such as "bugger", "shoot", and "whoop". However, in all such cases that end with him humbled, Gregor proves himself to be a good sport. Ultimately, his time spent on the battlefield leads Gregor to value the casual day-to-day.

Outis is an olive-skinned woman of average build and height, with light brown eyes and brown hair. Her uniform is comprised of a short black jacket, a white dress shirt, a red necktie, formal black pants and black combat boots. She also has two gold earrings on her left ear, a broken wristwatch on her left wrist, and carries her sword sheathed on her left hip. Overall, Outis's uniform is well-kept, professional and lacks any adornments.In battle, Outis wields a modernly designed kopis with "ΟΥΤΙΣ" written along the blade.Outis is a strict, commanding woman whose history as a war veteran is at the forefront of her personality. Compared to other Sinners, she tends to be disciplined and well put-together, as she approaches most scenarios with a cool head and tactical mindset. This includes levying high levels of suspicion towards most everyone the LCB encounters, ensuring that everyone stays on their toes. She is also a quick thinker, and a highly opinionated one. Outis loathes to follow plans and people she does not agree with, and will not hesitate to talk back to individuals higher up the chain of command, so long as it wouldn't stand to disadvantage her. An excess of pride is evident in every action she takes.

Sinclair is a young man with a fair complexion, below average in height. He has golden eyes and wavy, short blonde hair.His primary work attire consists of a plain white shirt tucked into a black waist belt and is accompanied by black suspenders, black suit pants, and a long Limbus Company coat. He wears a red necktie and attached to his left suspender strap is his ID. Sinclair has black gloves and wears black oxfords at his feet.In battle, Sinclair wields a halberd that is approximately 180cm long and has "VOGEL" written on the blade.Sinclair is a timid, relatively passive individual with a fear of fighting. His initial position within Limbus Company can be likened to a fish out of water, with Dante even questioning whether he'd joined of his own free will. Generally, Sinclair is portrayed as uncertain, nervous, and withdrawn, not liking the violent nature of the world nor wanting to participate in it. Due to a sheltered background in the Nest, Sinclair lacks the disillusionment the majority of the other Sinners possess, and tends to harbor unrealistic expectations about the City and its people as a result. While this often causes friction between himself and the others, particularly Outis, Sinclair remains headstrong in his more hopeful beliefs.Canto III: The Unconfronting demonstrates Sinclair's rougher side, as someone capable of grudges, violence, and disdain. His strong sense of justice is shown to go both ways, as his relationship with Kromer reveals that Sinclair's generosity has exceptions, and that he is not opposed to outright despising corrupt individuals and ideologies. Through finding the strength to stand up to her, Sinclair becomes more self confident and goes on to adapt better to the City's cruelty. The other members of the LCB later point out that he's not as shaken as when they'd first met him.

Rodion is a tall and well-built woman with a pale complexion. She has thick, bushy hip-length brown hair and deep blue eyes, and a beauty mark under her right eye. She is always shown wearing orange eyeshadow and light pink lipstick. On her left breast is a tattoo of what appears to be an anatomically correct heart split by an axe.She wears the standard Limbus Company uniform, a white dress shirt, black slacks, vest and a coat that is somewhat frayed at the bottom marked with 'RODYA' and NO.9', though she forgoes the tie and leaves her collar hanging loosely. Rodion also dons a thin black choker.Rodion wields an ax with 'РАСКО́Л' spelled out on the head.Rodion is a highly amiable woman who makes a consistent effort to be on friendly terms with the people around her. She presents herself as brazenly fun-loving, laid-back, and playful, with a preference for casual speech and nicknames. Rodya always makes an effort to be talkative and keep the mood up, both on the bus and during missions, cementing herself as one of the Sinners Dante looks to for help with breaking the ice. While her cheeky remarks and teasing occasionally come off as babying to the other members of the group, her nature makes it clear that she isn't acting out of ill will.Oftentimes, her fun antics are motivated by a particularly strong dislike of boredom and time-wasting. Having been afforded few luxuries in her youth, Rodya highly values ​​access to food, free time, and relaxation. This is often displayed in an unabashed love for eating and money.

Ishmael is a woman of average build with a fair complexion and wavy, fluffy and voluminous knee-length orange hair, and she wears a thick headband woven out of rope with white ribbons on either end, a memento of Queequeg and a recurring feature in nearly all of her Identities. She has hazel-colored eyes, at times appearing yellowish or orange, with sharp eyelashes and thin eyebrows, and a number of freckles across her nose and cheeks. Outis describes her hands as "coarse and rough".Ishmael wears the standard Limbus Company uniform, although her coat that is torn at the waist, cutting off the last two letters of her name. Her employee ID is pinned to the coat's right breast.Her weapon of choice is a flanged black mace made of numerous, vertical white stripes arranged radially, and she carries a circular shield with three bands across the face, branded with the word "HEARSE".Ishmael is first introduced as a calm, level-headed Sinner with an expectation for sound and reasonable judgement. She considers herself to be one of the more sensible members of the team, and is often one to sigh or scoff at the foolishness of those around her. This tendency for being critical extends to her superiors, as Ishmael is the type to prioritize rationality above formalities. Generally, Ishmael does well to back up her somewhat haughty attitude with competence, making a consistent effort to stay informed on the current mission and the right course of action. She is also portrayed as an overall intelligent individual with a staunch, reliable nature. Regardless of her aptitude, however, Ishmael's quips tend to lean into antagonism, sparking arguments with those who rise to her provocations.

Heathcliff is a tall and well-built man with messy dark brown hair parted on the right side of his head. He possesses sharp, glaring eyes that are a dark shade of purple, and slit pupils. His eyebrows are the same shade as his hair and are both slit, his right eyebrow having two slits and his left just one. He has a dark complexion with a number of scars littering his arms and going all the way up to his cheeks.His work uniform lacks the typical long black leather jacket, instead including a holster which is strapped around his chest and shoulders, with his employee card hanging below his right breast. The sleeves of his Limbus Company white shirt are rolled up to his elbows. He wears a red tie, black suit pants with a black waist belt and dark gray shoes.His weapon of choice is a long metal bat with bandages wrapped around the handle and the word "REVENGE" written in sharp letters on the barrel, which Heathcliff holds in his right hand and rests over his shoulder. After the events of Canto VI, he refashioned the bat to spell out "REmember". This is also reflected on his LCB Sinner battle sprites.Heathcliff is an exceptionally short-tempered and abrasive individual, electing violence as a first resort, and aggression as a way of life. He is overly impulsive and quick to anger, with consequences for those involved. However, over the course of several Cantos, a considerably calmer, more considerate, and selfless side of his personality would come to light.

Hong Lu is of average height and build, with a pale complexion and raven black hair. His hair is very long, and tied into a high ponytail with a cyan hair tie, which he wears in most of his Identities. Notably, he has heterochromia: his right eye is black, and his left eye is a bright cyan.His typical outfit consists of an LCB uniform consisting of black pants, a white long-sleeved dress shirt with a red tie, under a black, low-cut vest tucked into a belt. Additionally, Hong Lu wears a long black coat that reaches just above his ankles. This coat has his Sinner number on his left, and a metal pin inscribed with his name on the right.Hong Lu carries a long guandao called "太虛幻境" (pinyin: tài xū huàn jìng; lit. 'Illusory Land of Great Void'), which he wields with his right hand.Hong Lu is an exceptionally curious person with a rather ditzy demeanor and friendly attitude. He exhibits a potent, almost childlike indiscriminate curiosity and wonder, to the point of baffling the people around him. While this implies having lived a sheltered lifestyle up until his employment with Limbus Company, a closer inspection into Hong Lu's life will reveal that he grew up in a difficult family full of danger, betrayal, and lofty expectations. Hong Lu speaks casually of attempted murder and abuse against him in a similar way to how he approaches the hardships of the City, almost as if it has nothing to do with him. He has a tendency to give off the impression that he doesn't have particularly strong feelings about anything, regardless of the severity of the topic. While sometimes jarring, this trait primarily serves to make Hong Lu come off as amusingly easygoing and absentminded.

Meursault is a tall, well-built man with slicked-back black hair and small green eyes. He possesses a sharp face with a thick neck and wide eyebrows. He wears the Limbus Company vest, but opts not to overlay it the standard company coat. Underneath his vest is the typical white collared shirt and red tie. His ID hangs from his right breast. Meursault's belt is notably different from the other Sinners', and it has a large, rusted chain link for a buckle in the middle, presumably the link he'd broken off of the chain his mother kept in the living room. Meursault typically wears this belt buckle in other Mirror Worlds.
In battle, Meursault wields two elbow-length gauntlets, although he wears the right one outside of combat as well. This gauntlet has the word "SOLEIL" emblazoned on it.Meursault is a very prompt man, with a penchant for following orders. He speaks bluntly and concisely, never mincing his words. Throughout his first few adventures with the LCB, Meursault is reserved and obedient to the point of not speaking or acting on the sole basis of not having been asked to.

Ryōshū is a woman of average height and build, with straight black hair in a bob cut style and sharp red eyes, which at times can be seen glowing. She wears the dark gray and red LCB coat around her shoulders, secured by a small belt that goes over her right arm. Attached to the coat itself is her ID card. She wears black trousers, and her shirt uniform untucked; she foregoes the tie. She is occasionally depicted with a black glove on her left hand.Along with this, she typically carries around a sheathed ōdachi titled Arayashiki (阿頼耶識), with the words 無我夢中 阿鼻叫喚 支離滅裂 (mugamuchū abikyōkan shirimetsuretsu, "Wading through a dream, the self nowhere to be found. Like the Naraka of Avīci and Raurava Severed and torn until even the form is undone.") across it. The ōdachi's hilt is golden, and decorated with a butterfly pattern. The end of the sheath is wrapped in a red ribbon. In other Mirror Worlds, Ryōshū typically wields a separate weapon.Ryōshū has an individualistic, free-spirited, and somewhat sadistic personality. She feels little obligation to uphold common courtesies like politeness or attentiveness, and near the beginning of the game, the majority of her comments are hostile or violent in nature. Even among the Sinners, Ryōshū comes off as strikingly unfriendly and forthright, preferring to live at her own peculiar pace. While willing to back down if given the order, Ryōshū loathes being told what to do, which she's not afraid to make clear to Dante and Faust.Ryōshū starts out as one of the least talkative members of the LCB, and one who is easily frustrated. She labels herself as someone who dislikes butting in,[5] and tends to scoff at the others for overthinking matters or sentimentality. Oftentimes, she sees the rest of the Sinners as ignorant for not understanding "true artwork", which, for Ryōshū, typically involves gruesome murder. When she does speak, her words almost always include a form of SANGRIA.

Don Quixote is a short woman with blonde hair styled in a bob cut and deep, round hazel eyes. She wears the Limbus Company uniform: a plain white shirt tucked under a black waist belt, a red tie, black slacks, worn brown running shoes, and a long black coat. Her upper body is thoroughly decorated with various Fixer merchandise.Notably, Don Quixote forgoes the Limbus Company uniform shoes and instead wears a pair of yellow shoes with the word "Rocinante" embossed on them. Don Quixote wears a variation of this footwear in nearly all of her Identities.Don Quixote wields a massive jousting lance named "SUEÑO IMPOSIBLE" that towers over her, indicating that she is much, much stronger than she initially appears to be. This fact is further supported by her dexterity with such a massive weapon and her effortless ability to pierce a human skull with it at short distance.Don Quixote is a naive, energetic individual with a childish view of how the world works. She talks in an exaggerated, animated manner and jumps into any scene with enthusiasm, regardless of the gravity of the situation. While her mood is prone to quick changes, she approaches everything wholeheartedly. On a bus filled with hardened personalities, Don Quixote sticks out as incredibly friendly, silly, and over-the-top woman. Fitting of her knightly persona, she speaks exclusively in Shakespearean English.
Don Quixote has an intense sense of justice and desire to protect the weak. She cannot stand to watch idly as innocents are harmed, and her desire to protect children is particularly strong. While this benevolent attitude is a respectable rarity in the City, it proves to be troublesome when paired with Don Quixote's high levels of impulsivity. More often than not, this determination to shield others from harm only serves to cause trouble for the people around her

Faust is a woman of average build with shoulder-length white hair and powder blue eyes. She has an incredibly pale complexion and a rosy tint to her cheeks.She wears a beige turtleneck underneath a black leather vest with a large black leather coat resting on her shoulders, reaching her knees where the fabric is torn. She wears a black waist belt with her ID being on the left side. She wears black business pants accompanied by black shoes.In battle, Faust wields a zweihänder with "WALPURGISNACHT" written on the blade near the hilt. While wielding it in one hand or holding it at rest, she has a tendency to grasp it by the ricasso rather than the hilt. Furthermore, the parrying hooks of the sword are heavily enlarged, forming what is essentially a second crossguard.Faust is a talkative, albeit soft-spoken, Sinner with a condescending manner of speech and ineffably high confidence in her intelligence. Despite technically being Dante's subordinate, she often takes the role of their informant and overseer, as she is privy to considerably more information than her fellow Sinners. Because of this, she has a consistent and unwavering faith in her abilities, and does not show any signs of panic even in troublesome situations throughout the first six Cantos. While her expanse of knowledge always proves helpful for the LCB, her egotistical attitude can be excessive. At times, she is outright and unnecessarily contemptuous towards others' inability to keep up with her pace, most frequently Heathcliff, as she appears to lack understanding for those who do not meet "Faust"'s high standards of intelligence. This gives several of the other Sinners moments to criticize her harshness, though she remains steely and steadfast in her ideas, dismissing criticism of her attacks of others.

Yi Sang is a man of average build and pale complexion. He has short black hair which frays slightly at its ends, and dead-looking black eyes adorned with heavy eye-bags underneath. He wears the long-sleeved version of the Limbus Company coat around his shoulders, which appears to have been tattered and burnt at the bottom. Underneath his coat is the regular long-sleeved white shirt and red tie, and then a black vest, both of which are tucked into his belt. Written on the left breast of his coat is 'NO.1', and 'YI SANG' on the side.Yi Sang wields a saingeom (사인검, lit. Four-Tiger Sword) in the shape of a dagger kept in a sheath strapped to his left hip. Yi Sang also possess a gray leather notebook labeled '하융' or Ha Yung — as seen on his base EGO, Crow's Eye View. The notebook and the dagger are at times visible in various Mirror Worlds.Yi Sang is a particularly quiet, mellow man. At the beginning of the game, he fails to stand out much among his fellow Sinners due to his tendency to stay silent and watch rather than actively contribute to discussions. When he speaks, his words are often obscure and riddle-like with a monotone delivery, and his expression rarely changes

Her uniform as a One who Grips is rather ornate. She wears an oversized white cap with a red brim adorned with gold plates and a golden laminar gorget, with loose white shirt decorated with golden ropes, a red, floor-length cape and an ankle-length pleated skirt with star-shaped button, atop which are golden plate armor and two identically-coloured belts. The upper half of her body is adorned with red Inquisition wax seals and ribbons on her shirt, cap and cape. Her right forearm and leg are protected with silver engraved armour, whereas her left leg appears to be a naillike prosthesis.Like her sister, her right hand is exposed, revealing long red nails, and in it she clutches a gold, gradated nail enwrapped in ribbons and topped with a red gemstone.Like her younger sibling, the older Kromer approaches the world with a playful-yet-demeaning attitude. She does whatever she pleases, placing little importance on those around her, to the point of disregarding any negative opinions of her and not caring at all about her little sister's death. Though able to restrain herself from tormenting those who go against her intolerant beliefs, she also shares Kromer's deep hatred of prosthetics. Unlike her, however, Heinrich appears to exercise more patience and isn't as preoccupied with causing distress in her current playthings. She also greatly values ​​the lives of humans, becoming intensely distressed when the residents of Sisyphe that manifested within its headquarters were incinerated, with her specifying that only the prosthetic users should've been killed. It is implied her distress was caused by a loss of profit, due to the necessity for the Inquisition to access the human brain in order to extract Experience from them.

The Lady of the Fount is a woman with a gentle, benevolent smile, with deep blue eyes and long, flowing black hair, bearing a strong resemblance to Demian. She wears a long, striped blue dress with white sleeves and a skirt that splits off into flaps, as well as a long scarf. The Lady is always seen levitating above the ground, with her hair and clothing floating around her as if under water.The Lady of the Fount has not revealed much of herself, but appears to be a reserved person, often not responding at all when asked questions or giving only a short, metaphorical answer. While the Sinners cannot fully determine if she is a friend or foe, they quickly understood her to not be hostile to them. Throughout the Canto, she shows a familiarity with the Sinners and their personalities, briefly commenting on their natures as they progress through the floors and showing a deep understanding of them.

Guido is a massive man with an unknown appearance. He is always seen in wearing silver, partially engraved armor over red chainmail and a scratched helmet with a faceplate sculpted to have an impassive expression. Guido also sports a red, floor-length cape fastened to his pauldrons. Red wax seals with paper strips are attached to his shoulders, knees and chest.Guido wields a long, thin nail, half of which is wrapped in red cloth.Based on Meursault's Großhammer Identity and his feats in Canto III, it is implied he has body modifications (namely implanted K Corp. tubes) that allow for regeneration.As a high-ranking member of the inquisition, Guido is devoted to Kromer and is steadfast in N Corp's beliefs. Despite considering the Sinners heretics for following Dante, he was lenient enough to give them a chance to repent. Despite his deep devotion to his cause, Meursault's Großhammer Identity reveals he likely carries a sense of dread about his use of K Corp. prosthetics, realizing his cause in some part to be wrong.

Kromer's consistent physical traits consist of pale pink skin, silver eyes and silver hair with yellow highlights. Kromer's hair is prominently swept to the right, covering her right eye. Her hair is tied back in a short ponytail when in her school uniform, and cut shorter in present times. Kromer's N Corp. uniform consists of a white shirt with a wide sleeve on the right side. The left side of the shirt is covered by silver plate armor with red wax seal ribbons and a badge with N Corp.'s insignia. The shirt is adorned with four-pointed yellow stars decorations that go from her shoulder to her lower torso, and a rounded, protruding collar in the same color. Kromer wears a cravat around her neck in a gradient that goes from golden to white, atop which is an N Corp. Inquisition red wax seal and ribbon. Her uniform has two different belts of different sizes: a larger yellow, cincture-tied belt with a large silver buckle, and a black baldric upon which Kromer carries her the nail she utilizes as a sword. A thin yellow string decorates the black belt. Her pants are of similar color to her upper half, however it is mostly covered by silver plate armor that extends from her upper thigh to her feet, with red wax seals planted around. Finally, Kromer wears a dirtied white cape that reaches down to the floor.In the past, Kromer wore a school uniform design which consisted of a long-sleeved white button up shirt overlaid by a green sweater vest with a large V-collar dipping down just below her chest. She wore shorts of a similar color that are rolled up below her knees. Kromer also wears ankle-high white socks and black shoes.Kromer describes herself as "a humanitarian who loves purity," referring to the purity of the human form without prosthetic modifications. As the head of N Corp.'s nailing judgment expedition in Calw, she displays extreme levels of sadism, obsession, and savagery towards prostheses, calling for intense mutilation of those who get these surgeries.

Demian is a young man of average status. He has deep blue eyes and bears brown, short hair that is swept to his right. He has an unnaturally pale, nearly gray complexion. A mysterious red mark known as the Sign occasionally manifests itself on his forehead.His school uniform consists of a white long-sleeved button-up shirt overlaid with a green sleeveless sweater, as well as a pair of pants of the same color. Both his shirt sleeves and pants are partially rolled up. He also wears short white socks and black shoes.In present day, he wears a different outfit. The attire consists of a similarly white long-sleeved button-up shirt, rolled up past his wrists, but overlaid with a dark gray waistcoat. He wears matching shorts, but this time with a black belt, too. Prominently, Demian wears a large blue scarf that waves behind him. Underneath this scarf in the "V" of his waistcoat lies a blue gem.Throughout their childhood with Sinclair, Demian always seemed to exude extremely mysterious energy. In Sinclair's memories, he is described as detached, aloof, and mature. He gained an immense interest in Sinclair the moment the shy boy made eye contact with him upon seeing his mark, and was privy to information about Sinclair's personal life than what really seems natural. Always talking in a vague manner, Demian proves himself to be of the philosophical sort with an attitude of someone wise beyond his years. Despite coming off as cold and all-knowing at times, he remained supportive and hopeful of what Sinclair could become.

Siegfried is a tall, muscular man with white eyes and shoulder-length blonde hair with two plaits. His most notable feature are his prosthetic arms made of an engraved wood or brass-like material. The right arm ends in a massive fist whereas the left possess a normal-sized silver hand capable of firing energy blasts; both are attached to prosthetic shoulders with two thin joints and three cables. Siegfried wears a blue bodysuit with green details on the torso, lower legs and neck and a green domino mask with a yellow border. Additionally, he wears a large black fur coat (with two massive clawed paws still attached) fastened at the neck by a silver brooch with eight small fastenings on the left.Siegfried is energetic and enthusiastic with a flair for showmanship. He enjoys attention, attending magazine interviews, and encouraging witnesses to spread stories of him. He even encourages the Sinners to take photographs of him before he defeats them, despite photos normally requiring permission from K Corp. Siegfried appears to hold no grudges against his opponents, allowing Don Quixote (whom he had just killed) to acquire an autograph. He is rather flippant, teasing Sinners while fighting them and complimenting Vergilius for his sharp tongue after being insulted.Siegfried tends to speak in an archaic and formal fashion and refers to his actions as "heroism".

Saude is usually seen in her LCCB uniform, which consists of a large turquoise jumpsuit suited on top of a black turtleneck. On top of that she wears a dark gray work vest fitted with several velcro pockets and a walkie talkie. Another, larger pocket is fastened to her right thigh. She wears black combat boots and black gloves, and carries a large turquoise pistol, which she uses with her right hand. After being promoted to an LCCB manager, her sprite shows her gun holstered and her carrying a screen device instead.Saude comes off as a gentle, amiable woman who is usually seen wearing a friendly expression. At first, Saude's personality appears to be the polar opposite of her partner Effie's, however she is an equally critical person in actuality; she simply chooses to present herself differently. Dante describes her as someone who is putting on a veil of kindness. At times her sarcasm and lack of faith can come off as even more backhanded than Effie's, considering the ingenuine smile they are paired with.By Canto III: The Unconfronting, Saude seems to have gained an admiration of sorts for the Sinners and their strange way of doing things. At that point, she shows off more of her actual personality, but it's considerably more like friendly teasing than any form of genuine negativity. She and Effie appear to be looking forward to working with the eccentric bunch from here on out.

His normal LCCB uniform is a large turquoise jumpsuit with the Limbus Company logo on the left shoulder, suited over a black turtleneck and tucked into black combat boots. He wears a gray combat vest atop the jumpsuit with a walkie talkie on the right shoulder and "LIMBUS" written in red across the center. There are pouches on the bottom of the vest, on his left shoulder and strapped to his right thigh. Effie carries with him a large baton with a golden, cylindrical head and exposed wiring, seemingly an electroshock weapon.What stays consistent throughout both of his looks is Effie's exceedingly long, gray hair fastened into a thick braid with ribbons- although the ribbon is red in his disguise, and black in his regular uniform. He has small, slanted periwinkle eyes.Effie is a rather snarky, judgmental person who always seems to have an insulting comment or two to make about the Sinners. He comes off as exceptionally smug and makes no effort to disguise his lack of faith in those he deems incompetent. This personality appears to clash with his partner Saude's when taken at face value, however a closer look at Saude's character reveals that in actuality, the two of them are equally critical people.Both Effie and Saude are shown to be very intelligent and committed to their work.Effie seems to have gained an admiration of sorts for the Sinners and their strange way of doing things. At that point, he comes off as someone who is naturally sarcastic and teasing, rather than possessing any form of genuine towards the group.

The Limbus Company Bus Department, or LCB, is the department primarily tasked with finding and retrieving the Golden Boughs.[30] Beyond that, they're also Limbus Company's field operations unit.[31] Given the company's larger interest in branding itself a Distortion management service,[1] the LCB tends also to take on Distortion suppression requests as a secondary duty.[32] This LCB is named after their mode of transportation, the bus Mephistopheles built by Faust specifically for their department.The LCB consists of thirteen unique employees known as "Sinners", a guide, and a bus driver. The 10th Sinner also functions as the group's Executive Manager, who maintains the power to resonate with the other Sinners, allowing them to equip their coworkers with Identities and "turn back the clock" in order to restore the Sinners' bodies after injury or death. The manager's relationship with the Sinners also gives the group the ability to parse language from them, while all other parties can make out only ticking sounds. Despite Dante's managerial position, both Faust, Sinner no. 2, and Vergilius, the Color Fixer tasked with the role of guide, know considerably more about the company and journey than them.

The Before Team, or LCCB, is the unit tasked with the scouting and preparation work that takes place before the Sinners arrive at a scene.[64] This involves performing reconnaissance and intelligence tasks concerning the LCB's destinations, preliminary surveys, and coming up with advance plans for Golden Bough retrieval.[65] My Form Empties' Observation Log suggests that they may also identify and observe Abnormalities prior to the LCB's encounters with them.The LCCB has a number of different teams, including Preliminary Observation, which is said to have five sections in and of itself.[66] The Preliminary Observation of the Before Team staff are remarked to receive little pay and be treated as expendables by the company.

Demian and his allies are fairly secretive individuals, and the faction they belong to is largely shrouded in mystery. The group was at least partially assembled prior to the plot of Limbus Company, as Rim describes leaving the old League of Nine with the intention of joining Demian.[2] They have a vested interest in the Sinners and the trials they face on their adventures as part of Limbus Company, keeping a close eye on everything they do from only a short distance away.3 The members appear to possess great ability, with Demian displaying an impressive understanding of Shin and Mang, and Sansón demonstrating the capacity to take advantage of Golden Bough resonance with his own unique powers.[5] This is in addition to many other "talents", such as Demian's understanding of Dante or Rim's transformation between humanoid and butterfly. As a whole, the group holds expectations of sorts for the LCB.

The One who Grips: the highest ranking among the group, and their cult leader. Gives orders to other Inquisitors, who follow them unconditionally with religious zeal.

Mittelhammers: the third-in-command inquisitor.
Kleinhammers: the second lowest pawn for an inquisitor.

N Corp. is divided into two major factions, "Nail" and "Hammer",[1] and is managed by a Board of Directors, whom Hermann is a member of. Its Nest is made up out of entirely white buildings,[2] but its Backstreets do not follow such rules.Within the Corporation, experience is seen as the highest value[3] in a literal sense. The Corporation's main form of commerce is what is called "Canned Experience", a product that grants anyone who consumes it experience of certain things: a wide variety of Canned Experiences is available, ranging from combat experience[4] to the experience of living in a Nest mansion.[5] Much of the Wing's economy thus revolves around the gathering and manufacturing of experience to be sold and exported to the rest of the City. The usage of Canned Experience is widespread to the point of being easily available even to schoolchildren in other Districts.Because of the importance of the product, photography for personal purposes is a highly restricted and expensive venture within N Corp., only available to the wealthy or influential. For a similar reason, one of the Taboos of N Corp. is the owning or filming of video footage within the Wing, believed to be due to the lifelike nature of video recordings infringing on their Singularity. The more "vivid" and realistic a recording is, the more severe the infraction is considered were one to own it.The District's interest in the concept of experience also extends to a more philosophical level. Within the Wing, the usage of prosthetic in humans is a topic of debate, with part of the Wing considering pain to be a necessary component of the human experience, and therefore prosthetic usage to be something that rescinds the humanity of its users. However, this ideology is not held equally within the Wing, leading to multiple factions forming.

Calw (Hangul: 칼프, Kalpeu) was a small town located in K Corp's Nest which was renowned for its prosthetic expertise, earning the nickname "The Holy Site of Nest K's Prosthetic Industry."Due to the village specializing in the manufacture of high-end prosthesis components, it became a tradition in Calw to fully replace one's "outdated" body parts with prosthetics to become full-on cyborgs. The village was surrounded by scenic woodlands rarely found in the Backstreets, providing an almost idyllic landscape.During the events of the game, Calw was destroyed on Christmas Eve, when the N Corp. Inquisition targeted the townspeople for their augmentations. Consequently, many inhabitants were executed or detained and tortured. The Inquisition then took refuge in the ruins of Branch K-02 buried under the burning mansion that was Sinclair's family home, transforming the ruined L Corp. facility into a base of operations on their hunt for the Golden Bough.

K Corp. is renowned for its Singularity-based medical technology used in both civilian and military settings, capable of rapid regeneration. Due to their immense influence, Nest K has a noticeably greater quality of life, and is considered one of the safer and more comfortable places to live in, even compared to other Nests.Because of this, just getting to the border checkpoint is a dangerous task onto itself. It is not uncommon to get ambushed and killed by hooligans trying to rob visas or IDs to even obtain a chance of moving into the Nest.District 11's corporate life is highly unforgiving: despite being said to care about employee well-being, K Corp. has 70-hour work weeks[1] and severely punishes defects or disobedient guard units. The Nest is also well-off enough to afford orphanages to house children who've lost their parents, in grave contrast to the Backstreets with their high child-mortality rates for orphans.K Corp. was one of many Wings that took part in the Smoke War, opposing the old L Corp. and supporting Lobotomy Corporation as an upcoming Wing. During the war, both K Corp. and its ally I Corp. promised to grant migration permits to their Nests after the war concluded to those who fought on their side, leading to many Fixers joining the war with the hopes to one day become a resident of a Nest. However, after the end of the war those agreements were walked back due to various business deals involving tremendous amounts of money.[3] Not only were the migration permits not given out, but participants of Wing Wars were no longer allowed to move Nest K or Nest I at all.[4] This change in policy left countless veterans with uncertain futures, and many became resentful of the Wings due to this betrayal.
