First is a tall man with a brown mohawk and goatee, along with light brown skin and eyes. He has a strong jaw and prominent nose. He wears and orange hoodie with grey lining over a black shirt with a blue collar. The sword at his hip has a pommel in the shape of a white fox head. Next to him is a creepy woman with long purple hair, pale skin, and elaborate whorling tattoos on her face. She has orange eyes with black sclera and no pupil. She has a choker with a round ruby in the middle and a red victorian-era ball gown. Next to her is a short woman with dark eyes and hair. She has brown skin and looks pensive. The hair at her temples is silver. She wears a pink poncho. Finally, a man with pale skin and mid-length dark brown hair wears a metal bucket-shaped helment with a baseball cap-style brim. It's blue with an orange, seven-pointed star on the front. He has prominent cheekbones and a cocky expression. His tunic is green with red accents, and he wears blue and gray armor on his arms.

In Gov’s Service

These season 1 characters showed us the perspective of the Church of Gov during the side stories In Gov’s Service and In Gov’s Service Again. 

Season 1 characters: Three people stand in front of the Church of Gov's logo: an orange star with seven undulating rays on a field of dark blue. On the left is Squall: a powerful-looking man with black skin. He has a moustache and a serious expression on his face, which is framed by a bright red headscarf. His flowing orange robe is worn open, exposing the massive star of Gov tattoo on his chest. He has more tattoos on his arms and hands. In his right hand, he holds a staff made of fire. He wears loose red pants and golden clawed gauntlets to complete his outfit. In the middle is Zora: a tall, buff woman with dark skin wearing a silver and gold headpiece with metal wings and a point in the center. She looks confident in her silver armor that is also etched with swirling golden patterns. She wears a white tabard with the seven-pointed star on it in gold, a brown belt with several pouches, and she carries a huge sword over her shoulder. The pommel is gold and has three points, much like her headpiece, and the hilt is black with gold inlay. On the right is Quanjoy: a slim man with a van dyke beard and a brown hooded shawl bearing the orange star logo on each shoulder. He has a simple brown tunic and grey trousers beneath, and carries a bow. He has a faint scar over his right eye, and his skin is the colour of sand. He looks like he's most at home out in the desert.
