|  Personaje |  | Yomiko Readman*
Codename: "The Paper" (in official English translations, sometimes rendered as "Agent Paper" or "Miss Paper")
Yomiko is a substitute schoolteacher and secret agent working for the
British Library's Special Operations Division. Her father is of British
descent, but she lives and works in Japan (when not on missions). She
has a large apartment building filled entirely with books. She is one
of the most powerful Paper Masters, able to build entire buildings with
paper and pilot working paper airplanes, among other things.
Joe Carpenter
Codename: "Joker"
Carpenter is the commander of the Special Operations Division of
the British Library, in charge of carrying out Mr. Gentleman's wishes.
He is extremely loyal to the British Empire, willing to do anything to
further its safety and success.
Mr. Gentleman
The head of the British Library's secret operations, Gentleman is
the true source of Britain's secret power over global affairs. He is
apparently an ancient being, having observed or controlled much of the
world's history.
Wendy Earhart
Joker's personal assistant and some-time field agent. She is of
English and Indian descent. She begins working for the British Library
at age 19.
Nancy Makuhari
Codename: "Miss Deep"
Nancy has a special ability to pass through objects. In the novels,
she is a British Library operative working in China; in the anime,
there are two identical Nancys, both of whom are cloned "I-Jin"
incarnations of the famous spy Mata Hari.
Drake
Drake is a mercenary hired by the British Library Special
Operations Division. He formerly worked for the American special
forces. He is an expert in most firearms and special weapons, and while
having no superpowers, is extraordinarily tough. Despite a no-nonsense
demeanor, he appears to be superstitious and obsessed with luck.
Donnie Nakajima*
The 18th "Agent Paper," he was Yomiko's mentor and lover, before he was killed. His ultimate fate is uncertain.
Ridley Wan*
Donnie's distant friend; another Paper Master who worked for the
British Library and for Dokusensha at different points in his life
Grandmother
A female counterpart to Mr. Gentleman, Grandmother, also called
"China," she is the controller of Dokusensha. Dokusensha is ostensibly
a Chinese bookstore chain selling rare books, but in reality,
Dokusensha is an intelligence-gathering operation rivalling the British
Library. It is the power behind China's authority, much in the way the
British Library is the power behind the United Kingdom.
Michelle Cheung*
A Paper Master from Hong Kong, the eldest member and leader of the
Three Sisters Detective Agency, also known as the "Paper Sisters." She
is responsible for acquiring jobs for the detective agency, which
include translation work, lost book and person finding, and bodyguard
duty. During combat, she provides ranged support with a paper bow and
arrows. She has a flighty and somewhat selfish demeanor, which
disappears during battle.
Maggie Mui*
A Paper Master from Hong Kong, the "middle" Paper Sister. Her paper
powers allow her to create and control enormous paper "familiars,"
including a giant robot-like warrior, a wolf, and a giant bird capable
of transport. She also has the strongest defensive powers of the Three
Sisters, creating massive bullet-proof walls and spheres. Maggie is shy
and verbally unexpressive, but deeply loyal to her sisters and friends.
Anita King*
The youngest of the Paper Sisters. Her combat specialty is
hand-to-hand support, both via excellent martial arts skills and use of
sharp paper blades. She is a fiery adolescent who keeps her more
absent-minded sisters in line.
Nenene Sumiregawa
A bestselling Japanese author who wrote her first book as a
teenager. She is a close friend and admirer of Yomiko Readman; in the
TV series she later befriends the Paper Sisters. Often a target of
kidnapping and mistreatment by everyone from obsessed fans to
machiavellian organizations which want to put her writing talents to
work supporting their own means
Junior
A mysterious young agent of the British Library under Wendy's
supervision. Like Nancy Makuhari, he is able to "phase" through solid
objects and is a master marksman.
Mr. Kim
Called the Paper Sisters' "Handler" by Michelle Cheung, Kim is a
Dokusensha operative who hires the Paper Sisters to retrieve rare books
for him in the TV series. He is often seen with Sonny Wong.
Sonny Wong*
Code name: "The Recycler"
An extremely powerful Paper Master who works for Dokusensha.
Hisami Hishishii
Hisami, also called "Hisa," is close friends with Anita King and
likens their relationship to that of Anne Shirley and Diana Barry's in
Anne of Green Gables. She is a shy 13-year-old who becomes a novelist
(in Read or Dream the Paper Sisters are her bodyguards, rather than
Nenene Sumiregawa's). |
