The Three Silver Swallowtails
"Multicolored Princess"
1.
Her Highness the Iroyume of Color Kingdom �iIroyume="dream with color")

Clan : Silver Swallowtail
Gender : Female
Age : Ageless. Equal to 21 in human scale.
Height : 173 cm
Weight : 70kg (paint)
Hair : Back = blonde, front = blue
Eyes : Right = red, left = white
Wings : None
Role : One who recognizes everything past and present in the fairyland.
In Japanese calls herself as : watashi
Nickname invented by Ginji : Paint bucket
Example of speeches :
"Danger! Caution! Warning!"
Special technique :
Color is the Sense
She sprinkles her paint around her body to analyze moves of her enemy.

Iroyume was once a princess who was dominating world of "senses" (recognition). One of earlier fairykings defeated her, who decided to follow the fairyking since.
Her whole living tissue is made out of paint, thus her skin tone is of myriad of colors. Iroyume is an embodiment of Buddhism teaching "color is the wisdom". Some clans have concept of her as the goddess of "art", the target of their worship.
She wears vividly colored military field suits. Also, she has power to sprinkle paints with the spray gun she crafted out of herself to gain knowledge. In the game, she tells other Swallowtails what is going on in the Hypnotic City spraying the view she grasped.
She speaks most often among the Silver Swallowtails, preferring to begin her speech with word "Warning". She usually speaks in a tone "you're doing that!", "it's not going that way, you!". She is often critical on the way Sumeragi manages things.
While she aids herself through her supernatural power to "recognize everything", she herself totally lacks direct combat ability.
Since she was a little bit of reference upon building of Yumemashougun, outlooks of she and Yumemashougun resemble to certain degree.

Grasshoppers worship Iroyume, though their grasp of her is completely misunderstood.

About drawing :
Her body is made out of multiple colors (see her diagram). Front growth of her hair is blue, back growth being blonde.
Upper-right part of her face is red. A black band runs from beneath her right ear to chin. Rest of her face is white.
She is not wearing any shoes or boots (her trousers are knee-length and her shins+feet are exposed).
She has Caucasian facial built. Her facial emotion changes affluently, tending to expose grinning teeth.
Her breasts are moderately large (measures 87 cm).

From designer :
She somewhat give you an impression of lowest one among Silver Swallowtails, though she is not lowest really.
After she was given the "princess" title, her role became stable - walking tall all the time but is doing nothing actually.
Her combat suits and spray gun were invented just to make her look cool.

"The Living Mechanism"
H-1 Hagane(hagane="steel" or "blade metal")

Hagane expresses her happiness.

Clan : Silver Swallowtail
Gender : Female
Age : Ageless. Equivalent to 29 in human scale.
Height : 210 cm from upper to lower tip of her wings
Weight : 53 kg
Hair : Blonde
Eyes : Green (lenses)
Wings : Artificial
Role : One in charge of material and science.
Nickname invented by Ginji : Beheaded
In Japanese calls herself as : WATASHI
Example of speeches :
"PILOT ... NOT NECESSARY..."
"NO IT IS NOT POSSIBLE! DO NOT UNDERMINE MY TECHNOLOGY!"
Special technique :
Metallic inferno
Hagane attacks with instruments she fabricates on the spot. She can also affect enemy machines.
Hagane was once a machine who ruled world of physical law. Someone in the line of fairykings once modified her to fall under his reign.
Hagane has a diabolic outlook - a pair of wings located on both side of her head. Though Hagane is 100% made out of machine, including her mental circuit, but she is still a "living" entity. She is wrongly known as the god among White patched butterflies.
She is always floating. She develops every kind of weapons through supernatural power.
She has larger influence to game course compared to other Silver Swallowtails, since she is original developer of the fabricated devices in the game.
Hagane is very confident of her devices, so if you destroy such of her devices she get so hurt sparks come out of her.
Her speech is easily noticeable since she always speaks in capital (in Japanese, she always speaks in katakana, except for normally katakana-spelled terms which she speaks by hiraganas).

Various tools, from Swiss army knife to electron mails sender occupy inside of Hagane, of which she utilizes by carrying on tip of manipulator arms she extends.

About drawing :
Hagane does have humane face, but sometimes printing paper pops out of her mouth. Her facial feature never changes; even her mouth does not move when she talks. Her wings are grey and 4 cm thick.

From Designer :
Hagane, who resembles Chilean mythical being Chonchon, is most deformed of all Silver Swallowtails. Her face is based on Ritsuko in Evangelion and Quistis in Final Fantasy 8.

"The Red Wolfwere""
Akagane von Gessler (akagane="copper")
From front, fangs visible.Together with Marquis and Ginji.

Clan : Silver Swallowtail
Gender : Male
Age : Ageless. Equivalent to 23 in human scale.
Height : 237 cm
Weight : 120 kg
Hair : Reddish brown
Eyes : Grey
Role : One in charge of beasts.
In Japanese calls himself as : Not applicable. When "translated", watashi.
Nickname invented by Ginji : Loser doggy-dog
Example of speeches :
"Roarrrr!" (That hurts!)
"Grrrrrgrrrr..." (Sumeragi, I can't agree with you anymore)
Special technique :
Invade-the-living-tissue
Akagane lets a part of his flesh dive into the enemy's living tissue then destroys enemy.

Akagane was once a king of beast who was ruling a world of all non-human life forms. He was critical on the fairyworld which is near to humans then, but one of fairykings persuaded him to cooperate.
Akagane is a noble wolf with human power (wolfwere), who has nobles oblige incomparable to scummy werewolves.
Though Akagane cannot speak and can only roar, Silver Swallowtails can speculate what he wants to say to almost perfect degree. Also, if Iroyume is present, she can translate what Akagane wants to speak.
Akagane is more pacifist than other Swallowtails, and do not pose violence unnecessary.
He reins boisterous Iroyume and Hagane with his keen eyes.

He formerly had certain responsibilities on the Imperial Creatures, but he has no role as a Silver Swallowtails clansman since they do not exist anymore. But he still follows Sumeragi.
He likes Iroyume because she understands him without talking.

About drawing :
Straightforwardly, refer to "Wild Half" the manga. Notice his unnaturally long and thing legs. Akagane does not have any tail. Ears of Akagane resemble those of Imperial creatures.
As his name implies, whole of his legs and face is covered by copper-like reddish fur. Though his hands are humane, feet are wolf-like.

From designer :
Since Akagane is less visible than Iroyume or Hagane, so in stage 8, I gave him chance to show off by revolting against Sumeragi.
Since three Silver Swallowtails were destined to die since their birth, I began to feel Akagane's death is unfair after application of his "revolt" theme.

I am personally in fond of three Silver Swallowtails. Their true intimacy is expressed in various part of story. How about an Iroyume X Akagane coupling fanfic?
