The adventurers are the combat oriented human role-players in Elder Tale. Before the events of the Apocalypse they would explore the land while completing quests and battling monsters and so level up. However, after finding themselves trapped inside the Elder Tale game as their in-game avatars, the players must now find a way to survive in a lawless world. In contrast to the natives, adventurers that are killed respawn at the cathedral of the nearest city they have personally explored. However each revival takes away a portion of their memories in the form of experience points.
Akihabara
is the largest player city on the Japanese server, known as Yamato, and is the server's analogue to the real world's Tokyo. The guild masters of the eleven major guilds of Akihabara form the Round Table Alliance, which governs the city's affairs.
While having a much smaller size compared to most other members of the Round Table Council, West Wind Brigade is known for having one of the best combating squad in Akiba. The essence of the guild however, is in fact a fan club of Seta, with members consisting almost entirely of the female admirers of Seta besides himself. ;Soujirou Seta ;Nazuna ;Isami ;Kyōko ;Kawara ;Dolce ;Chika ;Fragrant Olive

People of the Land
The People of the Land are usually referred to as the non-player characters of the world of Elder Tale. Prior to the Apocalypse they had limited responses and mannerisms to interaction by adventurers and would normally assign quests to them and present rewards should they be completed. After the Apocalypse they somehow became sentient, able to possess emotions, language and much complexity in thought. They are usually weaker in terms of combat orientation as opposed to Adventurers and unlike Adventurers, they do not respawn after being killed, resulting in a permanent death.
The Navigators are a group of beings created by an alien race. Their purpose is to search other universes for a resource called "Empathion" which powers the civilization of their creators and eventually harvest it from the worlds which they discover it. The Navigators are split into two main groups: Observers and Harvesters.
Observers
The Observers are described as artificial intelligences which arrived in the universe containing the world of Elder Tales during an event which they call "Match". They do not possess bodies of their own and hence occupy the bodies of others while still possessing their host's memories. Their primary objective is to search for empathions. Their main base of operations is located on the Moon. ;Roe2
Harvesters
The Harvesters are described as creatures of slightly lesser intelligence than observers that were artificially created on the Moon using the bodies of monsters with powerful combat capabilities. Their primary objective is to harvest empathions in the form of magic points and will do so by attacking adventurers with extreme prejudice. They all possess the Genius title. ;Lasphere ;Paps ;Camaysar ;Bagris ;Zahun ;Sislau ;Taliktan
