Saya's Friends and Family
The series revolves around Saya Otonashi, a seemingly ordinary high school student who lives with her adopted family and secretly guarded by her Chevalier, Haji (Hagi in the English translation). Her adopted father, George Miyagusuku, is a veteran of the Vietnam War and was entrusted with Saya by David's father. Her elder brother, Kai, was a star athlete, while her younger brother, Riku, is a kind and smart boy, though shy.
Red Shield (Goldschmidts)
An organization formed to combat the Chiroptera, the Red Shield was founded by the descendants of Joel Goldschmidt, the man who originally found Saya and Diva and unleashed the Chiropteran menace into the world. Most Red Shield members are culled from survivors of Chiroptera attacks, and all possess a trinket with an embedded Chiropteran crystal. The Red Shield's greatest enemy is Diva, and her Chevaliers. Red Shield is responsible for Saya's protection and well-being, using her as a weapon against the Chiroptera.
Cinq Flèches Group (Goldsmiths)
The Goldsmiths are a branch of the Goldschmidt family dedicated to protecting Diva; all their family members are Diva's Chevaliers. They control the Cinq Flèches Group, a powerful and influential conglomerate, with the ultimate goal of creating a world of Chiroptera for Diva's future. The family crest of five arrows (Cinq Flèches) and the names of the brothers are modeled after the family of Mayer Amschel Rothschild. One member of the Goldsmith family, Solomon, falls in love with Saya, and thus breaks ties with Diva, being the only Chevalier to do so.
The Schiff (Shifu, Sif)
An unstable balance between Chevaliers and Chiropterans, they are prototypes for the Corpse Corps, pseudo-Chevalier soldiers created from Diva's blood by a group of scientists under the sponsorship of Amshel Goldsmith in Khirbet. Although they have similar regenerative abilities, the Schiff eventually die from an attribute they call the “Thorn,” an affliction that causes their bodies to gradually crystallize. As imperfect beings, direct exposure to sunlight will cause them to spontaneously combust. Unable to attain Diva’s blood (the only supposed cure for the “Thorn”), they gradually die off; Lulu is the last Schiff that survives by the end of the series.
Diva
Saya's twin sister is the story's main antagonist. She provides the Delta67 (derived from her blood) which is used to transform people into Chiropterans. When she was born she was kept in an isolated tower as part of an experiment. Because of that she hated Joel, such that when Saya freed her she slaughtered him and the people at his birthday party. Her isolation left her childish and socially inept as well as ignorant of the moral ramifications of her actions.
