Characters
The investigation has uncovered a number of individuals involved in the Niantic Project, some by choice, and others by circumstance.
These are the ones that have been found so far
They are split here in accordance to some sort of connection. These connections for a matter of simpler organization are done in reference to the first affiliation each of them had as many of them have shifted as the story moved along (example - characters that once were part of the Niantic project and are now part of one of the corporations)
For a list of Organizations, please refer to the Organizations page.
Quick Alignment Reference Guide and Project Diagrams. Please note this page refers to the “1218” universe unless noted otherwise.
