Zayne is a character who appears in the game Love and Deepspace developed by Paper Games.
He can typically be found working at Akso Hospital. He is known both for working far too often as well as his cold and strict demeanor. He is a highly-accolated doctor and is known for his research in Congenital Heart Abnormalities in neonates. As the youngest recipient of the Starcatcher Award, Zayne has contributed to lowering the prevalence of congenital heart defects in newborns with his discovery that Evol genes affect the mutation rate of cells during heart development.
When taking breaks between work, Zayne tends to indulge in eating sweets. He also suffers from bad nightmares and insomnia.
According to his Anecdote A Pure White Heart, despite his cold and intimidating nature, interns from all over are eager to work under Zayne and respect him highly, even though he scares them.[1] In the 2024 Meow's Time! event, Zayne mentions to the player that he learned how to braid hair by taking care of kids in Akso Hospital.

Personality: •He is a level-headed and stoic individual. He is extremely professional and pragmatic, while also being prone to making jabs at the Protagonist's silliness. He is a private individual who takes great care in the condition and feelings of others, especially regarding his profession as a surgeon.
It is implied that Zayne initially went into cardiac surgery as a career because of events relating to the main Protagonist that took place prior to the main story. Zayne is highly diligent and competent at his job, known for winning several awards and the respect of his peers, and even appearing in a news article for being the youngest heart surgeon in Linkon City.
Outside the main story and in cards or dates, Zayne displays a more affectionate personality and enjoys reminiscing his shared childhood with the Protagonist. He is also openly physically affectionate, often boldly holding or even kissing the main character.

XAVIER
Age: 23 (Admittedly)
Unknown (in-game profile)
Height: 6'1 ft 185 cm
Birthday: October 16th
Sign: Libra
Job: Deepspace Hunter
Evol: Light Manipulation
Workplace: Self Employed Hunter
"My light only shines over you."
Xavier is a character who appears in the game Love and Deepspace developed by Paper Games.
Recently, many citizens have been talking about a mysterious hunter who rescued them from Wanderers. With his combat prowess, he took down very dangerous Wanderers and disappeared in the blink of an eye, as if pursuing something greater.
We reached out to the witnesses. From their accounts, it seems their mysterious savior is Xavier, a Deepspace Hunter.
Xavier is able to fight monsters called Wanderers with the Protagonist and his Evol type is Light. He typically fights with a sword, directs laser attacks onto enemies and performs light-related sword combo attacks with her.
Appearance: •He is a tall young man with silver hair, blue eyes, and fair skin. He is typically seen wearing a white sweater and dark pants. Despite his youthful physique, his real age is unknown. In his Lightseeker uniform he is seen wearing a white long high-collared jacket over a black and white turtleneck undershirt. It is ornate with black and gold accents. His outfit features large black armored gloves that also feature gold accents. He also wears long black leather pants paired with black leather combat boots.
Most of Xavier's outfits will prioritize lighter colors such as white, beige, yellow, grey, and purple. His alternative outfits will feature darker colors like dark purple and red.
Personality: •He is a calm and caring individual. Noted by both the main protagonists and other characters, Xavier does not exude many facial expressions. Often, instead, opting for a neutral expression with little to no change in his tone of voice. However, in his dates and memories, Xavier exhibits more emotion with the protagonists. Often teasing them and showcasing his affection and care for them through private moments.
Xavier has a boyish, endearing and otherworldly charm due to his awkward speech, mannerisms and lack of awareness of social norms. His usual lack of emotional expression is often undercut by his often ridiculous nature to fall asleep in inappropriate settings such as the initial meeting of the main character and Xavier where he was asleep when they had found him.
Despite his initial impressions with the protagonists leading them to see Xavier as somewhat cold, he often shows his care for their well-being by putting himself on the line for them by protecting them or during their dates when he allows them to make the choice between making him play for them or letting the player play for themselves.
On dates while playing Kitty Cards or the Claw Machine, Xavier will often give the player a choice between letting him go first or letting themselves go. He will often rarely refuse the player if they want to switch at any point of the game. During Kitty Cards Xavier will often fall asleep allowing the player to switch their kitty cards to their advantage.
He occasionally shows a darker side when he needs to, especially considering the fact that he is thoroughly familiar with how the underworld works in the N109 zone. He also has a large bounty placed on him under his alter-ego Lumiere as he has made many enemies by eliminating a number of gangs that were trading in illegally modified protocores. Most chillingly, Xavier is willing to kill his ex-Backtracker teammates from Philos that have slowly lost their minds and transforming into Wanderers as they see the Protagonist's heart as the key to all their problems.
Daily Life
Job: Really? Has he actually killed 70,000-80,000 Wanderers?
Life: •He sometimes gets injured in missions, but barely ever visits the hospital to get his wounds treated.
•Alarm Clock, Fatso... He names every bird that frequently visits his house.
•His cooking skills are... Well, I'm not sure if we can even say he knows how to "cook."
•He loves to fish and ended up befriending the uncle who runs the guesthouse because of this.
Our Story
•He started practicing swordsmanship when he was little. And he even had a training partner.
•Trapped in a mysterious hall located in a no-hunt zone with Xavier... It seems that I've been there before.
•All the Protocores got blown up just like that... Is he really a newbie like me?
•Xavier turns out to be my upstairs neighbor.
•He always managed to find the wrong path with his instincts... Still, being lost with him doesn't seem to be too bad at all.
His Past
•I didn't think he's read a book like Claw Machines: From Beginner to Master.
•When he was in school, he'd get perfect scores on the exam about his favorite subjects. As for everything else... who knows.
•That hidden cavern seems to be related to his past...
His Likes
•No meat, no happiness. He has to eat it.
•He's the old-school type who still uses physical keys.
RAFAYEL
Age: 24
Height: 6 ft 183cm
Birthday: March 6th
Sign: Pisces
Job: Artist
Evol: Fire Manipulation
Workplace: Mo Art Studio
"It was before you met me. This is a story you've forgotten."
Rafayel is a character who appears in the game Love and Deepspace developed by Paper Games.
As an artist, Rafayel appreciates fine art and beauty. Rafayel's paintings always leave a profound impression on people. Most of his paintings are centered on Lemuria, an ancient civilization conceived in the oceans. His art style is like an inferno—passionate and fiery.
He is able to fight monsters called Wanderers with the Protagonist and his Evol type is fire. He typically fights with a flaming dagger, slashes his enemies with it and performs fire-related dagger combo attacks with her.
Rafayel has a unique and particular approach to his work and a distinctive viewpoint on art. It's said that he makes his own paints and must find a color he likes before he begins painting.
He set up Mo Art Studio in Whitesand Bay. It's his private art studio in Linkon City.
History: his Myth, Rafayel was the God of the Sea of Lemuria, an underwater civilization similar to mermaids/merfolk. When he was young, he was stranded on the shore and saved by a different young version of the Protagonist (as she is able to reincarnate), whom he forms a bond with. Once bonded, Lemurians are loyal for life and thus his affection is bonded with her.
Later on, the humans declared war on the Lemurians and many Lemurians were killed and enslaved. The reason for this is because the Lemurians were valuable for their blood which made them immortal.
In Protagonist's dream she is the Witch of the Abyss. Rafayel tells her that he wants her help to make a magic potion to transform himself into a human so that he can be with the human girl he fell in love with all those years ago. (That was the witch herself but she didn't remember it, he gave potion to her and it turned her into human again, causing her to remember everything )
Eventually, the Lemurian civilization collapsed and the sea filled with sand, causing them to be forgotten as myths. Rafayel eventually works as an assassin who helps another version of the Protagonist who is a princess escape from her palace as she is kept under house arrest due to her valuable heart.
Throughout all this time, Rafayel never forgot humanity's cruelty on the Lemurians and seeks revenge for his fallen civilization. The red coral stones he uses in his paintings are red due to being soaked in the blood of the slain Lemurians, giving them unusual hallucinogenic properties that oftentimes encourage people to see visions and kill themselves. As his paintings are worth millions and can only be bought by the rich, it is hinted that this is a way Rafayel uses to get revenge on the evil elite of society.
Main Story: The protagonist first meets Rafayel by accident at a kid's game to catch fish. He catches a fish for her which he calls a Flammula. He asks her regarding Hat island and holds a travel brochure, making her believe that he is a tourist in Linkon City. After advising him to stay away due to the reports of Wanderers there, Rafayel simply walks off without saying goodbye.
The Protagonist next meets Rafayel at his house studio as she is investigating the paint (made by coral stones) used by him that is able to cause hallucinations. He is in the middle of painting on a ladder and falls directly on her (or on the ground if the player clicks).
Soon, they are attacked by a Wanderer in his house. After defeating it, Rafayel is impressed with her Hunter skills and offers to pay her by being his bodyguard. The Protagonist accepts it on the condition that he helps her get closer to the mystery surrounding the coral stones used by him with mind-altering properties. Rafayel agrees also on the condition that she accompany him to harvest more coral stones for his paints.
Rafayel and the Protagonist set off to Hat island to collect Protocores 'for painting' via row boat. The boat ends up capsizing due to strong waves and thus they are stuck together on the island. Rafayel reveals that he is terrified of cats (considering he is related to fish).
Afterwhich, a huge deep seadragon Wanderer (Deluge Wyrmlord) appears. Rafayel warns the Protagonist to stay back as he fights the Wanderer underwater but she doesn't listen. She passes out and he transforms into his God of the Sea form and saves her while she is unconscious.
Appearance: •He is a tall young man with dusky purple middle parted hair, blue/pink eyes, and fair skin. He is typically seen wearing a white shirt and white or dark pants. When his heart rate increases he blushes across his cheeks and ears a prominent red color
In his Abysswalker set he is seen wearing a long dark purple leather coat over a light people underlay. It features a hood he wears over a portion of his head only leaving out one side where his ears are pierced all along the sides. It also features a dark black mask similar to an assassin's. Underneath it all is a dark purple uniform with silver chains and a zipper and his midriff is secured with multiple black belts.
Rafayel is usually seen wearing colors such as white, black, purple, and red.
Personality: •He displays a carefree and often spoiled and petulant personality on the surface. He has no issue messing with the main Protagonist and often enjoys teasing her in a childish manner. His mannerisms towards her is similar to that of a tsundere. He often pretends to push her away but enjoys it when she gives him attention.
Rafayel has a flirtatious and roguish charm and displays a notable sense of cunning and wit. He is well-aware that he is handsome, rich and popular but he doesn't abuse his status. He is easily able to charm other people and often uses it to his advantage. Despite this, he does not appear to intend to harm others with his actions. Often only doing so only to help him complete his goals or to help the main protagonist.
When playing Kitty Cards or the Claw Machines Rafayel notably prefers going first and will often refuse the main character when they ask for a turn. He also will attempt to cheat playing Kitty Cards showing his childish nature.
He shows some skill in manipulation and 'playing the game' as he made a deal with the Protagonist to get herself kidnapped into the forbidden N109 zone in order for her to discover more about the Aether Core in her heart, while at the same time making a deal with an unknown shadowy person using her Aether Core as a bargaining chip. Basically, he is playing both sides, but is likely to be on the side of the Protagonist.
