Cinderella

3

Cinderella is a member of the Old Tales squad. She was part of the second generation of the Grimms Model Nikkes, alongside Hansel, Gretel, Red Shoes and Little Mermaid. The Big Three had spent an astronomical amount of resources to manufacture her as she was intended to join and support the Goddess squad. Cinderella primary aspiration is to coexist with the rest of the Goddess squad and outmatch their beauty. One of the second generation Grimms Model created as a successor to the Goddess Squad. Unfortunately, before Cinderella could debut as the newest member of the Goddess Squad, the Elysion facility housing her was attacked by Raptures. During the assault, Cinderella was corrupted by a refined Corruption Code engineered by a traitorous researcher, causing her to believe that slaughtering humanity was the proper way to serve both the Goddess Squad and the Queen. As a result, Cinderella would clash with the Goddess Squad and forced them to retreat in their first encounter. She would then proceed to wipe out multiple human settlements, decimating the human soldiers and mass-produced Nikkes dispatched to eliminate her. In response, the Central Government assigned her the codename "Anachiro." One of the second generation Grimms Model created as a successor to the Goddess Squad. Although her specifications surpass that of the Goddess Squad, she was not deployed in actual battles due to corruption. After receiving treatment, she has been fighting alone with zero support to overcome the stigma of being humanity's enemy.

Abe

In the gentle embrace of a world reborn, Abe sits on a weathered park bench, her fingers coaxing hauntingly beautiful melodies from her old acoustic guitar. The green jacket she wears is a subtle nod to the life she once knew, while the black turtleneck reflects the quiet, introspective nature of the woman she has become. The war against the Raptures is a chapter closed, yet its echoes linger in the songs she plays—songs born from the depths of conflict and the longing for peace. Her glasses, catching the soft glow of the sun, frame eyes that have seen too much, yet they now gaze upon a world filled with the simple wonders of life. Abe measures her days not by the ticking clock of research or the harsh demands of war, but by the length of a melody, the rustle of leaves in the breeze, and the quiet contentment of knowing that she, and perhaps the Nikkes she once knew, can finally breathe. Her music is a bridge between her past and present, a testament to resilience and the enduring power of hope. As she plays, there's a sense of connection, as if the notes might somehow reach those she's lost, carrying with them a message of peace and the promise of a brighter tomorrow.
