[HARRY AUGUST]
Lead Male (3 - 98)
"He's slim, earnest, remarkably unremarkable. Your average Joe." Harry is a Multi-Lifer, meaning he repeats his life with the memories of what happened previously, so each time he sets out to find a cure for his mother's cancer and to win over Jenny,
the woman he loves. He agrees to partner with classmate and fellow Multi-Lifer, Vincent, to find a way to make people immune to diseases until he realizes that Vincent's secret research is doing damage to the world. After Vincent marries
and kills Jenny, Harry teams with fellow Multi-Lifer Charity to get rid of Vincent by finding and killing Vincent's pregnant mother to save the world and let Harry live happily in his next life with Jenny.

[VICENT RANKIS]
Supporting Male (20 - 29)
"Dark, foppish hair, focused eyes, wryness mixed with a deep intensity." Harry's argumentative classmate and fellow Multi-Lifer, Vincent convinces Harry to join in researching a way to make people immune to diseases so that they can prevent
Vincent's brother and Harry's mother from dying. Vincent makes Harry promise not to let Jenny distract him from their mission. After nearly killing Harry and getting Myra to make him forget, Vincent hires Harry in his next life, marries Jenny and shoots her, but Charity and Harry kill Vincent's pregnant mother to stop him from returning and wreaking havoc on the world.

[JENNY TAYLOR]
Supporting Female (20 - 29)
"Hair wild, eyes alight with life." Jenny is a fellow sciencenstudent and admitted science nerd who falls in love with Harry and tires to pursue him when he's working with Vincent and not supposed to be distracted by her. When she marries him in one
life and he tells her about his condition, she takes him to a psychiatrist but tries to find him after she realizes he's right. Jenny marries Vincent, who shoots her, but after Harry and Charity get rid of Vincent Harry meets her on a train again and
sparks fly.

[CHARITY]
Supporting Female (60 - 69)
"Ethereal, silver hair, wise eyes." A member of the Cronus Club, she welcomes Harry and explains as much as she can to him. Charity thinks Harry has forgotten who he is and sets out to deal with Vincent on her own until she's pleasantly surprised to learn
Harry has been faking. After Harry finds out who Vincent's mother is, Charity disguises herself and pushes the pregnant woman off train tracks to prevent Vincent from returning.

[MYRA]
Supporting Female (30 - 39)
"Wearing all black. She looks cool, kick ass." Myra frees Harry from the dark room Agent Smith locked him and takes him to the Cronus Club. She turns out to be working with Vincent and, after helping him catch Harry, she injects him with the Forgetting serum.

[AKINLEYE]
Supporting Female (30 - 39)
"Tall, arresting." A member of the Cronus Club, Akinleye gives Harry a tour, introduces him to oldest member BALTHAZAR and tells him that Shakespeare perfected his writing as a Multi-Lifer. She can't get over the loss of a man and decides to go through with the process of Forgetting. Charity injects her, and she dies.

[BERNARD AUGUST]
Supporting Male (40 - 49)
"Kind, bespectacled." Bernard is Harry's adoptive father. Bernard gives his newborn son an engraved watch because the Augusts are notoriously late. When Alison is dying, he tries to get Harry it isn't his fault and there's nothing he can do to change this.
