== Supporting Characters ==
=== Histoire ===
The Oracle of Planeptune. Prior to the start of the game, she left in order to re-open the gate connecting the Hyperdimension and the Ultradimension. Due to the inferior specs of the Ultradimension's Histoire, opening the gate could take up to three months. As a result, she likely won't be back home for some time.
=== IF ===
A Guild Agent, and friend to both Neptune and Nepgear. She is currently away due to a long-term mission from the Guild, requiring her to regularly change residencies for the time being.
=== Compa ===
A nurse-in-training and friend to both Neptune and Nepgear. She is currently away due to work.
=== Dr. Prower ===
A mechanic specializing in air travel. He was hired by Planeptune's Basilicom to facilitate the creation of airships that can take people from the mainland to the surrounding islands near Planeptune.
=== Anonydeath ===
An enigmatic hacker from the Ultradimension with an extreme obsession for Noire. Stuck in the Hyperdimension due to the closing of the gate, he has taken up residence in Lastation. In an attempt to win over Noire, he assists the CPUs in thwarting the plans of the Order of Rebirth.
=== Financier ===
Blanc's chamberlain. She assists in the re-opening of the Hunter's Guild and advises the CPUs of their various facilities.
=== Rock* ===
An ex-Maker from the PC Continent currently working as a Guild Agent. She is a master marksman and information gatherer, but her blunt and violent personality makes it difficult for other Guild Agents to get along with her, and often leads to compromised missions. Suspecting that she is being deliberately given mundane assignments in order to keep her behavior in check, she abandons her post and joins Gold Third in gathering information on the factions threatening to overthrow the CPUs.
== Antagonists ==
=== Honryuu ===
The leader of the Freebooter Gang. Unlike other criminal syndicates, such as the now-defunct ASIC, whose operations consist of illegal manufacturing, counterfeiting and distribution with the goal of diverting Share Energy away from the CPUs, Honryuu's gang appear to be engaged in criminal activities for the purpose of personal gain and profit. Currently, the specifics of their goals and motives are unknown.
=== Warechu ===
Former mascot and member of ASIC. Unable to adjust to a life of honest work, Warechu returns to the criminal underworld, joining Honryuu's gang. His previous experience in dealing with the CPUs has proven beneficial to their operations.
=== The Order of Rebirth ===
An antireligion organization whose goal is to replace the CPUs as the rulers of Gamindustri. By highlighting and emphasiszing the CPU's mistakes and inadequacies in governing their nations, they hope to recruit members across the whole region to their cause and convince them that the Order is better suited to lead. To this end, they have even resorted to hacking and theft to obtain any evidence they can use to paint the Goddesses in a negative light.
