From leftmost to rightmost:

SU BEI <333 A boy given knowledge they're a disposable background character in a potentially failing, bad-ending manga vows to survive by using audience expectations to manipulate the world. (MGTS = Manga Guide to Survive -> A Guide for Background Characters to Survive in a Manga). He's clever, independent, but gleefully avoids the hassle the manga's protagonist go through, but ends up ropes in anyway. i love him so much.

SETH THORN <33333 A game developer with a fatal disease is transported into a world with terrifying gates/dungeons, and given a system that promises a cure if he obeys. He has the soul of a sadistic jester, got proposed to by a conductor if you squint, and is trying very hard not to cackle at people's suffering. Hobbies including gaslighting his coworkers and only tolerating the existence of his childhood friend. (HGAS = Horror Games Aren't Scary -> Horror Game Developer: My Games Aren't That Scary). my fav freak slowly transforming into a powerful, gleeful monster.

SEO GIO <333 A painter who ends up inside a magical portrait as the world changed, just trying to vibe leisurely and make friends. Unbeknownst to him, though, he has the distinct demeanor of a hopefully well meaning eldritch being going "pspsppsps" towards humanity, while insisting he is a regular guy. No one believes him. (TDP = The Dungeon Painter -> The Artist Who Paints the Dungeon.) imagine gio's in a slice life anime and everyone else is a slowburn horror story. once wrote a letter to his fav employee and it teleported into that guy's house and was utterly unknowable in any language.

THE ASCETIC <3333 A gamer pushed into the body of a npc from a game he just completed, forced to play a convincing, kindly, but otherworldly cult leader. He grows his fanbase, tries to untangle himself from enemies, and is convincingly a somewhat eldritch/godly being in a human skin-suit trying to help others. He thinks everyone is are obsessive weirdos, who should stop believing shit he says. Try killing him and witness the EYES start appearing from his blood! You are Known. You are Seen. You Are seen. You Are Seen. (WCL = Wise Cult Leader -> The Life of a Wise Cult Leader)

THEO LISTOEL <333 Bound into a body of a sickly noble's son, Theo must progress the game he's been entrapped in, impacting the lives of the characters he's known so well. He's given the one ability of Writer, able to write reality with the low, low cost of concerning everyone he knows by bleeding profusely from his eyes and mouth, collapsing, and somehow being vaguely son shaped to a demon king. Peak father-son + friendship dynamics to me. (WNPC = Weakest NPC, Surviving as the Academy's Weakest NPC)
