Player Character

Your NerveGear-scanned avatar — one of 10,000 trapped players fighting through Aincrad's first two floors as a beta-era survivor.

7 known partners to compare before you leave town. Use weapon role and support value to cover your build's weak spots.

Story characters can change how the early Aincrad crisis feels, especially when your party crosses the same pressure points as the frontline cast.

The Black Swordsman appears during the early Aincrad arc — story NPC tied to the 10,000-player survival crisis, not the player avatar.

Fencer and early-floor survivor — rapier-style franchise identity with story presence during the death-game opening.
