Re:Monster

Parabellum

The mercenary group founded by Gobrou; they are composed of various races and their respective evolved species. Gobrou tends to recruit survivors and rescuees without any other place to go; beyond professional connections.

• Gobrou (ゴブ朗)
• Formerly a human named Tomokui Kanata who was stabbed to death by a woman in the heart of a futuristic city, he is reborn as a bald-headed green-skinned goblin infant and given the name Gobrou. However, he still retains his intelligence (which is greater than that of other goblins) and memories of his past life, as well as the ability to absorb the traits of whatever he eats. He later evolves into a Hobgoblin (possibly the adult form of goblins; they are not only bigger, faster and stronger but also have hair)then into an Ogre before impregnating his wives.
• Though Gobrou impregnated his wives around the same time, their births happen at random; with their bodies rapidly adapting to third trimester state. All the births have to be C-sections (done by him, as only Gobrou has the medical knowledge) as they cannot deliver normally.
• Gobkichi (ゴブ吉)
• Gobrou's brood brother. Although larger than Gobrou, he defers to Gobrou's intelligence and is a devoted follower. With Gobrou's help, he also evolves into a Hobgoblin. He eventually evolves into a Crimson Ogre, which inconvenienced him due to his big frame being incompatible with his mate E until she became a Earth Lord.
• Gobmi (ゴブ美)
• A female goblin. She becomes part of a hunting trio with Gobrou and Gobkuichi and is devoted to Gobrou. Later, she also evolves into a Hobgoblin. She is Gobrou's only wife from the tribe, evolving into a superior vampire species; Gobmi has to wear special glasses to stop her charm from affecting everyone.
• Gobe (ゴブ江)
• Otherwise known as "E" or "Earthe" in the anime. She is Gobkichi's mate and works for the tribe's mining team. After Kichi evolved into a Minotaur, the two couldn't be intimate without fear of E getting hurt; this changed when she evolved to a similarly large Earth Lord.
• Hobsei (ホブ星)
• Otherwise known as "Sei", she is from the generation before Gobrou. Sei is partly responsible for Gobrou becoming leader of the tribe; having suggested the duel with Gobkin to avoid civil war. She evolved into a Spell Lord due to her dedication to magic. Sei is Sato's lover.
• Hobsato (ホブ里)
• Otherwise known as "Sato", she is from the generation before Gobrou. She evolved into a Blood Lord thanks to her thirst for battle. Much like Kichi, Sato isn't very bright; though she slightly has more common sense. Sato is Sei's lover.

Gobrou's lovers

Originally they were abducted by the older goblin generation for producing more children. Gobrou protected them, helping the girls put their skills to work; helping the tribe advance in technology and culture. They fall in love with him for his kindness, but demand "group attention" when they feel jealous just one of them is getting affection.

• The Redhead (赤髪ショート)
• The Redhead is the fourth of Gobrou's human wives, and the only one who is not a support class. She evolved into a special fighter class Noir Soldat by eating Monster flesh; however, her great power comes at the price of needing to eat said food regularly of she will risk her body deteriorating.
• She gives birth 100 days after the Twins.
• Her real name is "Rubeilla Walline"
• The Twins (姉妹さん)
• They are excellent cooks who help teach the tribe how to make human food; the sisters are also excellent seamstresses. The sisters give birth to Gobrou's first son and daughter respectively. They are the second & third of Gobrou's human wives.
• Their real names are Felicia and Alma Timiano.
• The Blacksmith (鍛冶師さん)
• She is often asked by Gobrou to help craft items and weapons; often inventing things Gobrou had in his old world. The Blacksmith makes upgrades to weaponry thanks to her fascination with spirit stones & is Gobrou's fifth wife.
• Her real name is "Emery Furado"
• The Alchemist (錬金術師さん)
• As her profession states, the Alchemist is often tasked by Rou to help craft potions and the like. She was the first of the five to fall for Rou; thanking him with a kiss for saving her from a goblin trying to rape her. She is the only one to birth a human child, unlike the others; though her daughter has a rare skill from birth.
• Her real name is "Spinel Fean"

Gobrou's children

Born to the human lovers of Gobrou, they are raised with love and kindness; being doted on by their parents. Their species tends to be random due to all the monsters Gobrou has absorbed.

• Aura
• Daughter of twin Felica. She is half-ogre, being one of the few hybrids to exist. Unlike her brother/cousin, she is hothead who loves a good fight.

• Argento
• Son of twin Alma. He is half-ogre, being one the few hybrids to exist. Unlike his sister/cousin, he is polite and thoughtful.

• Okinawa
• Son of the Blacksmith. He is an ogre with a kind heart, despite his large frame. He respects his elder siblings and looks up to Kichi as a role model.

• Nicola
• Daughter of the Alchemist. She is the only human child, but appears aware despite her age. When her mother is busy, Nicola is often looked after by her siblings.

• Rupushi
• Daughter of the Redhead. She is a jewel lord and the child, so far, who has had the longest gap between being born and conception; a full 3 month after her siblings.

Others

• Rubilia (ルービリア)
• Second Princess of the Sternbuild Kingdom. Naive, but with the inherited ability of telepathy, Rubilia seeks freedom after being under house arrest for years due to her power being so strong. As a result, she is an incredible pain in the butt; constantly bothering others and ignoring safety. She seeks to become queen one day, by using Gobrou's mercenary group as vassals to improve her reputation.
