Derrick Nyug is a 25-year-old Wiituni-born Clemenian soldier who has a unique set of skills that make him invaluable to the Warheads. He stands tall and lanky, with a thin frame and a friendly smile. He wears an olive green set of a BDU coat, pants, boots, and a military cap that casts a shadow onto his upper face. Derrick has a keen eye for detail, which he uses to his advantage when it comes to supply and backpacking for the Warheads. He is meticulous and precise when it comes to packing and organizing supplies, making sure that everything is in its proper place and accounted for.
Derrick had a rough start in life, growing up with parents who had mental health issues. When his parents passed away, he became the caretaker of his younger sister, Derrika. Despite the challenges they faced, Derrick and his sister persevered and eventually joined the Wiituni army together. It was there that Derrick met an old seasoned Clemenian medic named Frank Henris, who changed his life forever.
Henris adopted Derrick and Derrika and moved them to Clemencia to learn the customs, language, and ways of the Clemenian people. This experience led Derrick to join the Warheads, where he saw an opportunity to make friends, get exercise via fighting, sightsee, and earn a living.
Derrick's autism and lack of social interaction can make him come across as socially awkward, but his unique set of skills and attention to detail make him an invaluable asset to the Warheads. He wears a standard military uniform and a short-brimmed hat that casts a shadow on his white, blank, yet friendly eyes. His weapon of choice is the standard-issue Clemenian assault rifle.

Derrika Nyug is a free-spirited, carefree, and goofy 23-year-old Wiituni-born woman who is Derrick's twin sister. Like her brother, Derrika wears an olive green set of a BDU coat, pants, boots, and a military cap that casts a shadow onto her upper face. Derrick and Derrika grew up together in a small town in the countryside, where they spent most of their time playing pranks on their friends and family. As children, they were inseparable and shared a strong bond that has remained unbroken over the years.
Despite being Derrick's twin, Derrika has a unique personality of her own. She is often seen as the more extroverted of the two siblings, with a playful and lighthearted attitude towards life. Her black long messy hair, adorned with an ahoge, is a sharp contrast to Derrick's short, neat brown hair. But like Derrick, she has the shared white blank eyes, which she often shadows over with a short brim hat.
Derrika currently resides in Joreak, stationed at the Warheads chapter where she can indulge in the country's media and swag without the burden of a conventional job. Her main weaponry is an FAMAs bullpup assault rifle, which is more like a toy for her than a tool. She occasionally visits Clemencia to catch up with Derrick and to entertain his comrades with her goofy antics. Derrick, however, harbors concerns that Derrika may have inherited their parents' mental illness and fears for her well-being. Despite the challenges that life has thrown their way, they have remained close, supporting each other through thick and thin.
Despite her carefree nature, Derrika is no stranger to the challenges of life in Joreak. The country's intense work culture, coupled with the reactionary traditional culture of its politicians, has left many of its ordinary citizens feeling alienated and disconnected. Derrika, however, maintains her lighthearted outlook on life, seeing the humor in even the bleakest situations.
