Heroine Roster

S

Snow White

Confirmed

Dwarven pickaxe bruiser — the squad's anchor

RoleHeavy bruiser built around the dwarven pickaxe; her slow, charged swings break enemy stances and punish armor.
WeaponThe pickaxe excels at breaking guards and interrupting boss wind-ups when charged attacks land on openings.
Best ForBeginners: her combo routes are the most forgiving, and steady light chains keep the style meter climbing.
Pro TipLearn two of her branch routes before anything else — every attack opens new combo paths.
S

Red Hood

Confirmed

Aggressive rushdown — the wolf of her own story

RoleRushdown fighter who trades defense for speed; dodge-heavy play keeps her momentum bar full.
WeaponHard-hitting grapple routes and dashes let her chase stragglers and weave through shadow-wisp packs.
RiskLow base HP — two hits from a night Warden end the run, so mobility is her real defense.
Pro TipHer speed makes her the strongest night-phase clearer; keep her potion supply high via the Greenhouse.
A

Rapunzel

Confirmed

Long-range specialist with living hair

RoleRanged control fighter; her hair attacks have "a mind — and a mouth — of its own".
WeaponThe hair whip fights from a distance, making her the safest pick for learning boss patterns.
StyleHighest skill ceiling of the starter trio — positioning and stamina management decide her damage.
Pro TipHair Sweep is an escape tool, not an opener — her kit is built for single-target control.

Fairy Godmother

Rumored

Kidnapped in her teaser — playable ally or rescue mission?

StatusSeen only in her kidnapping teaser; whether she joins the rebellion as a playable heroine is unconfirmed.
RoleRumored as a magic user — community speculation puts her in a support or ranged niche.
StoryHer teaser raised the question of who dares rescue her; story updates may answer it.
Pro TipFollow dev teasers — Mass Creation has confirmed the roster grows alongside the rebellion.

Squad Synergy

Core

Freeze, rushdown and ranged control in one team

ComboMid-combo heroine swap lets you chain Snow White's heavy hits into Red Hood's dashes without dropping the chain.
ElementsSnow White's freeze sets up burst windows while Red Hood keeps pressure on chilled enemies.
CoverageRapunzel controls space from range while the melee pair closes in — three roles, one squad.
Pro TipPick heroines whose routes complement rather than duplicate — variety is what feeds the style meter.

Snow White is the most forgiving starting pick thanks to her steady pickaxe combo routes. Red Hood rewards aggression, while Rapunzel suits players who like controlling space from range.
Is Fairy Godmother playable?+
Unconfirmed — she appears in a kidnapping teaser, and Mass Creation has not said whether she joins the rebellion as a playable heroine or a rescue target.
Can I switch heroines mid-run?+
You pick one heroine per run, but the mid-combo swap mechanic lets you tag in teammates during combat without dropping the chain, extending combos indefinitely.

Permanent upgrades and hub renovations are shared across the roster, while each heroine keeps an independent skill tree and romance route.

Quick Tips

💡

Start with Snow White — her pickaxe combo routes are the most forgiving way to learn branch combat.

💡

Charge the pickaxe only on openings; the wind-up leaves Snow White vulnerable against fast foes.

💡

Keep Red Hood moving — her momentum drains when she stands still, so dash between attacks.

💡

Learn one route per heroine before grinding tier lists; two routes each cover most encounters.
