Neverness to Everness features a diverse cast of playable characters, each with unique abilities, backgrounds, and roles in the story. Characters include humans and Espers - individuals with supernatural powers and often distinctive physical traits.
Character Attributes
Each character is associated with one of six attributes in the Esper Cycle: Light, Zero, Curse, Dark, Soul, and Image. Combining adjacent attributes in combat triggers powerful synergy reactions.
Espers
Espers are humans who have developed supernatural abilities. Throughout history, as Anomalies integrated into the world, some humans adapted to possess these powers. Espers may awaken their abilities at birth or develop them later in life.
Many Espers have supernatural characteristics such as animal ears (Nanally), horns (Sakiri), wolf-man traits (Skia), or vampire features (Fadia).
Eibon Antique Shop
The Eibon team serves as the player's primary allies. Members include Hotori (owner), Nanally Coluccus (electricity/Anti-Gravity), Sakiri (support with Kiroumaru), Adler (defensive tank), Edgar (helper), Daffodil (security), and Taygedo (Oddity restorer).
Bureau of Anomaly Control
The Bureau employs numerous Espers. Notable characters include Mint from CSU-2 (dual blades, tornado transformation), and ETD-4: Captain Baicang (Incantations/martial arts), Skia (shadow wolf-man), Fadia (vampire with tombstone), and Lacrimosa (construct summoner).
Other Characters
Additional confirmed characters include Zero (protagonist), Jiuyuan (driver), Merula (crow-themed, likely S-class), Haniel, Alphard, and others who appear in trailers and promotional materials.
Oddities
Oddities are supernatural creatures that coexist with humans in Hethereau. Some, like Taygedo, are gentle and work alongside humans. Oddities require resident permits from the Bureau to live in the city legally.
