Knight Sabers

PRISS S. ASAGIRI

Age: 19

Occupation: Lead vocalist of 'Sekiria'

 

Priss is the lead vocalist for a techno-grunge-style rock band called "Sekiria'. The group doesn't have a huge number of fans yet, but the ones they do have are fanatical and most of it has to do with Priss. She sings hard, bikes fast, and in her spare time joins the Knight Sabers to fight Boomers and GENOM.

 

PRISS' HARDSUIT

 

Priss' Hardsuit is specifically designed for the alley-style, hit and run fighting tactics she prefers. Her suit's main weapon is a set of "concussion gloves". These are essentially focused grenades or landmines on the ends of her arms, with which she beats against a Boomer until she can tear inside where its heart remains and destroy it from the inside out. Until Linna's arrival, Priss was the primary combatant of the team and it is her suit that is used in Linna's first test simulation.

 

LINNA YAMAZAKI

Age: 20

Occupation: Hugh-Geit Office Worker

 

The fourth and newest member of the Knight Sabers, Linna kicks off the 2040 story line by arriving in Tokyo and almost immediately making connections between the Knight Sabers and the rock singer Priss. Although she is employed at a Genom subsidiary company which manufactures Boomer parts, she has already grown dissatisfied with her lot in life. By the time we first meet her, she appears to be actively looking for a way to join the Knight Sabers.

 

LINNA'S HARDSUIT

 

Linna's hardsuit is a military green color accented with red and orange trim, and is extremely maneuverable. As the newest suit of the group, it has some of the most advanced features, including a pair of long, ribbon-like cutters that can slice through almost anything. This newness is a double-edged sword however, for it fails on its first mission with almost tragic consequences for its owner. Linna's suit also has armored gauntlets, but she does not carry the heavy artillery "concussor pack" that Priss' suit has.

 

NENE ROMANOVA

Age: 18

Occupation: AD Police Officer

 

As a computer operator and communications officer working in the information center of the A.D. Police, Nene is in a unique position to access, alter and even delete confidential files and police information that might be of interest to Sylia. This makes Nene extremely valuable to the Knight Sabers, although it is still unclear exactly why Nene has agreed to play double-agent when the possible repercussions could mean years in prison at the very least.

 

NENE'S HARDSUIT

 

Designed more for field support and data acquisition than for combat, Nene's hardsuit is an unusual pinkish-red and purple. Her weaponry includes a railgun that can shoot metal spikes into her opponents, armored gauntlets and an incredibly powerful computer system and scanner array that lets her handle almost any field intelligence operations required of her. Eventually her suit is upgraded with several automatic functions that greatly increase her ability as a fighter. .

 

SYLIA STINGRAY

Age: 24

Occupation: Fashion boutique owner

 

Officially, Sylia Stingray is the outgoing owner of the Silky Doll boutique and Lingerie shop, but behind that mask lies the brilliant and calculating leader of the Knight Sabers. The daughter of the late Dr. Stingray, the acknowledged creator of the 'A-jin', or first generation, of Boomer technology, she appears at first glance to be a cheerful and innocent, if rather sexily-dressed, young businesswoman. In truth, she is one of the world's top biochemists and engineers, and the leader of the most fearless fighting group on earth.

 

 

Other Characters

LEON MCNICHOL

Age: 24

Occupation: AD Police Officer

 

Tough, intelligent and completely full of himself, Leon is one of the best detectives in the ADP. Although he tries to play the Dirty Harry role whenever the opportunity presents itself, his bubble is constantly being popped by both his partner Daley and Nene. He is obviously very attached to Nene in a big-brotherly sort of way, even if he does burst a blood vessel every time she calls him Leon-poo. The girl who really makes his motor rev, however, is Priss. Although he at first comes on to her like she was a cheap bar pick-up, he slowly realizes that this is a woman who is his equal in every department.

 

DALEY WONG

Age: 25

Occupation: AD Police Officer

 

Leon¹s partner and aide-de-camp. The emotional opposite of Leon, Daley is more inclined to use his brains than his brawn and seems to be the only member of the ADP who¹s actively questioning the rather contradictory nature of their relationship with the Knight Sabers. Although Daley is gay, his friendship with Leon is completely based upon their working relationship and a big-brotherly affection.

 

MACKEY STINGRAY

Age: 15

Occupation: Assistant Mechanic

 

Mackey is Sylia¹s younger brother, a fifteen year old genius with a particular knack for modifying mechanical devices such as the Hardsuits. The antithesis of his sister, he seems to be more interested in having a good time than helping bring about the downfall of Genom. The Knight Sabers are just another way to have fun, especially since the team includes a potential romantic relationship in the form of Nene Romanova. Theoretically, she is only slightly his senior, but later in the series, evidence is unveiled indicating that Mackey may be much older than he looks.

 

NIGEL KIRKLAND

Age: 36

Occupation: Owner of K's Garage

 

Nigel is a mechanical genius who aids Sylia in designing and fabricating the Knight Sabers¹ gear and hardsuits. A quiet, uncommunicative individual, Nigel obviously doesn¹t agree with all of Sylia¹s methods, but he has his own reasons for aiding the Knight Sabers. Nigel and Sylia have a ³relationship², but it doesn¹t seem very romantic. Nigel also shares a different kind of relationship with Priss, who sees in him a kindred spirit.

MEISIO HENDERSON

Age: 79

Occupation: Sylia's Butler

 

Sylia's butler is an older man who cares for her as if she were part of his own family. He spends most of his time worrying about her being hurt, and often tries to talk Sylia out of the more dangerous courses of action.

 

QUINCY ROSENKROITZ

Age: 89

Occupation: President of Genom Corporation

 

Although he is a mere shell of a human being, kept alive by machines, Quincy Rosenkroitz is the most powerful man on the face of the Earth... and above the Earth as well, since his permanent home is Genom's geo-synchronous space station HQ. Reaching the pinnacle of success hasn't curtailed Quincy's ambitions, however, and the entire planet has become a chessboard on which he plays his game of global domination.

 

BRIAN J. MASON

Age: 38

Occupation: CEO of Genom Corporation

 

The ultimate corporate shark, Brian Mason is a man with a serious problem. Although he's ruthlessly worked his way into a position to take over the reins of Genom upon the death of his superior, he's now quite stymied by the fact that Quincy Rosenkroitz appears to have no intention of ever dying. For the moment, Mason is biding his time, waiting for the moment to strike. Although he occupies himself by trying to find ways to dispose of the Knight Sabers, his real objective is far more sinister and lies buried in the ruins of old Tokyo.
