• Saki (Manga),
• Kake Hina (Four-frame cartoon),
• Nosuke Otaki Rikko (Illustrator)
• Muraicchi Kisugae (Color)
By combining Japanese culture with the cultures of other countries, Yamamoto and his team were able to create images that turned each nation’s flag into a Samurai. Each one complete with unique powers and characteristics, from Russia’s snowflake warrior to Morocco’s sword-wielding lion!

A plunderer who filled the earth with fear and grief in the blink of an eye descends. Humans called them "Brigant".
The last hope of humanity in the face of an overwhelming threat emerged. A subjugation force dedicated to fighting Brigants, warriors wearing flag armor.
People call them **Flag Samurai**."

Martinez

"And the truth will set you free."

**Martinez** is the Flag Samurai of Dominican Republic.

## World Flags Official Website

Martinez.
A type who readily listens to various concerns and finds joy in resolving troubles, preferring dialogue for solutions and generally disliking violence. Consequently, he refrains from resorting to force, often using mysterious powers for healing and support in battles.

The six spears he carries on his back are skillfully manipulated through techniques, often becoming a formidable defense.

Surprisingly, in his baseball hobby, he is an exceptional home run batter, using his slender physique to deliver powerful swings with impressive rotation.

As a baseball enthusiast, he effortlessly claims the Home Run King title in casual baseball games (without special abilities) held by local enthusiasts.

There's a rumor that he resembles characters from a game popular among elderly couples from a long time ago, and Martinez seems determined to eventually try playing that game.

Nedved

"Truth wins!"

**Nedved** is the Flag Samurai of Czech Republic.

## World Flags Official Website

Always straightforward and never lies; attempting to lie causes his articulation to revert to baby talk, it is a mysterious trait.

Loves cultural pursuits like reading, theater, art appreciation, and classical music, adoring old cityscapes as an artistic soul.

When meeting someone with whom he clicks, he becomes quite talkative, and if he finds someone he gets along with exceptionally well, he cries out of sheer joy.

Utilizing his hobby of puppetry, he regularly stages performances within Babel Lab. During rehearsals, his Spartan guidance and the competitive spirit of the other samurais create an unexpectedly passionate and peculiar unity, contrary to the heartwarming style of the performances.

After finishing a performance, the samurais often express, "That was... our youth."

In battles, he demonstrates unparalleled strength in one-on-one combat rather than facing multiple opponents. Using his agility, he effortlessly steps into the enemy's space.

Chapman

"Without God's will, even the leaves of a tree would not blow in the wind."

**Chapman** is the Flag Samurai of Cuba.

## World Flags Official Website

Kind at heart, can't ignore someone in trouble, yet simultaneously a well-behaved libertine who loves freedom.

Has an odd but close relationship with Justin from America.

Unusually wields a saber among the samurais, but since he always carries it, it's a bit precarious.

The star-shaped gem on his left hand occasionally emits light even outside of battles, but he won't reveal why it glows.

Whenever it glows, he invariably stands up, leading everyone around to tease him as "C○-timer" (suggested by Kamamoto of Japan), but he has no idea what they're talking about.

Has a habit of walking around with a cigar-shaped sweet in his mouth when he finds one. Also, being a coffee lover, he enjoys treating others to his "Chapman Blend" coffee, for which he is particular about roasting methods, grinding, and brewing.

C4 Detonator and Explosives

The C4 Detonator and Explosives is a weapon which can be spawned through the Weapons tab of the Spawn Menu. When the detonator is picked up in VR, a C4 Explosive will spawn at the ammo spawn on the player. The C4 explosives stick to any non-terrain object. In VR, the player can simply drop the explosive. On flatscreen, the player can hold left click to see the trajectory of the explosive, and release to throw it, after which they can right click to explode it. When the player uses the detonator (trigger when holding it on VR, right click for non-VR) it will detonate all existing C4 explosives in the level. The explosives deal Large Explosion (2000-3000) damage when in the blast radius.
Hoplite

*“Hoplites were citizen-soldiers of Ancient Greek city-states who were primarily armed with dory spears and shields (hoplons), but also carried swords like the xiphos. They comprised the bulk of ancient Greek armies. Hoplite soldiers utilized the phalanx formation to be effective in war with fewer soldiers. The formation discouraged the soldiers from acting alone, for this would compromise the formation and minimize its strengths.”*

- The Cry of Athena Museum

Although it sounds like a kind of beer, the Hoplite is actually a Greek soldier. Hoplites, having a danger rating of 2/9, have strength in numbers. They have 700 health and 25 melee resistance. The Hoplite’s shield makes it more difficult to combat with melee than other units. Created by Mitchell Sturtevant.
