The former boss of the Dead Rabbits, and a close friend of Heathcliff. Known as vigilantes in T Corp., the Syndicate brandished themselves with scarves tied to resemble rabbit ears.

His identity was later stolen by Erlking Heathcliff, who knew him as Matt in his original Mirror World.
|
Trivia:
- Matthew is mentioned in several Mirror Worlds, where he maintains his role as Heathcliff's former boss. His name presents some variation:
- In the World of the Erlking, Matthew goes by Matt;

Erlking Heathcliff, Disguised as Matthew
|
The younger sister of Linton Edgar. Little is known of her personality, yet Linton appears to care for her, though not enough for her to feel that he would give her his blessing to marry. Despite this, it seems said marriage was actually a cover-up for the reality that she was convinced or abducted into becoming a human dough used to summon Erlking Heathcliff into Limbus Company's primary Mirror World.
While she is not seen alive, her body features notably blonde hair, similar in color to her brother's, as well as similarly-colored clothing.
|
Trivia:
- Isabella is based on eponymous character of Emily Bronte's Wuthering Heights, who is similarly manipulated by Heathcliff, who uses her as a pawn in his plans for revenge.
- Edgar Family Butler Ishmael's Identity Story mentions Isabella to be Gregor's younger sister in the World of Wuthering Heights. In Edgar Family Heir Gregor's Identity Story, it is referenced that Wild Hunt Heathcliff had 'took [his] little sister and destroyed [his] family', implying Isabella experiences a similar fate in this Mirror World as in the one from the main story.

The younger brother of The Time Ripper. Born into squalor, the two lived with short days (as is common for District 20's lower class) and few accommodations. He focused greatly on convincing his older brother to quit the Yurodiviye and take a test for becoming a Grade 1 inventor. He gave his brother all but two of his hours of his day, to which the Time Ripper took the test and planned to meet him outside at a nearby clocktower. Unfortunately, the Time Ripper's brother's decelerated time meant he was unable to avoid a head-on collision with a car, killing him. His body flew through the air for 21 minutes, and was the catalyst for his brother's Distortion.

A Fixer of Fanghunt Office, first encountered as the Sinners made their way to the organized tent used to house the groups dismantling La Manchaland. He first confronted the Sinners at the entry, quizzing them on their Bloodfiend knowledge, only to attack in the belief that the group failed to understand the intracacies of Bloodfiend hunting. His outburst was ultimately stopped by his work partner Romero. The Office was later converted into Bloodbags and Bloodfiends by Dulcinea's faction, and both were killed, the unnamed Fixer being devoured.
|
|
|
A La Manchaland Bloodfiend who constantly repented to The Priest. While initially fine with the hemobars, insanity chewed away at him in the monotony of eating them.

While it's implied he—at least partially—survived this, his missing presence during the events of the Canto imply he is no longer living.

A Zwei Association Fixer that Sancho (memory-wiped within the lighthouse) read about during her years of solitude. In the book she read, he valiantly lead a faction of fighters against an unseen force. Sancho, after this reading, began writing her 131st letter to the Fixer.
The full story is left unknown; likewise, it is unknown if Aegis is simply a fictional character, or an actual famous Fixer.
|
Trivia:
- Aegis is named after the fictional shield Aegis, a mighty shield associated with the Iliad, used by both Zeus and Athena.
- This inspiration ties into his mentioned use of shields, as well as the imagery of the Zwei Association, known for their roles as personal guardians and hired 'shields'.
|
A peddler of Relics that frequently visited Don Quixote and his kingdom. He frequently scammed the man, blinding him with the prospect of mighty Relics associated with historical Fixers. One such case of his scams was selling a replica of the founding Fixer of the Hana Association's helm, which disappointed the Bloodfiend on realization of its status as fraudulent.
The peddler's frequent targeting of Don Quixote gave his children the idea of tricking their father with the Helm of Mambrino, a mystical Relic that'd allow them to bypass Bloodfiend filial impiety.
|
Trivia:
|
