Celica
Character Backstory
Arcadia (Goli's Graphic Gallery)
Making her debut in 3rd style, Celica's exact place and date of birth are unknown. An 18-year-old[note 1] who is not very good with cats. Erika is her identical twin sister. Her biological father is a famous pianist who performs all over the world. Her biological mother kept the birth of Erika and Celica a secret from her biological father, and during a snowstorm, she entrusted Erika and Celica to an orphanage in Hokkaido, where she died. After that, Celica became the adopted daughter of a couple living in Fukuoka before her memories developed, and was raised with care as the only daughter. In addition, she wasn't informed of her adoption. When she turned 16, Celica was allowed to move to Tokyo, where she had a fateful reunion with Erika in Shinjuku.
Since then, the two have been on good terms, playing IIDX together and going to clubs every day. Neither of them knew they were sisters. It's been three years since Celica started playing IIDX. She is currently a first-year art student living alone in Tokyo. She is an apprentice/kouhai of Q-Jack and is studying production set design (staging, lighting, etc.). Among IIDX songs, She likes those by NAOKI and DJ TAKA, and especially likes bright and lively sounds. She participates in various events with Erika and enjoys the IIDX life with Yuz and Shi-low. Her favorite phrase these days is "goe goe."
Notes
- ↑ Celica's bio from this issue states that she is 18. Her age would be updated to be between 19-20 by the time the time Beatmania IIDX IIDX Bible was released.

Character Backstory
Arcadia (Goli's Graphic Gallery)
Celica's twin sister. "I am currently working as a walking mannequin at my 10th part-time job, ROOTS26, for a low wage. I end up getting free clothes instead as compensation."
On her 18th birthday (inaccurate), she was informed by her adoptive father that she was an orphan and had a younger sister. "In the fire at the orphanage two and a half years ago, everything, including my records and the address book of my sister's place of care, was burned. Currently, the only clue to finding my sister is a vague memory from before I could remember anything. My first memory, which I had several dreams of, was of 'A small child crying after being scratched by a cat in the park playing a prank.'
I can't remember the child's face." Among IIDX's playmates, she likes pranks and has a strong image of always smiling,
"It is also the flip side of the helpless loneliness that I feel when I know my sister's existence. Only Shi-low, who is a friend, is talking about her. Working part-time to save even a little money, building a computer and being in the internet world are all means of searching for the younger sister of memory.
In IIDX, I like songs with powerful sounds and bright images. I hope that my sister is laughing and playing the same song somewhere as I am, so I will work hard at my part-time job today as well."
Q-JACK
favorite : ROCK, Road Fighter (Arcade game), Ponshu sake
Character Backstory
Arcadia (Goli's Graphic Gallery)
His real name is Quisling Jack.
He graduated from an art university in Japan as a special audition student. He has not returned to his home country of Norway, and is staying in Japan. Currently, he is working for Seiei and playing an active role as the villain (Dark Prince Pipiltine) in "Tsurion Sentai Hi-Hatman".
Q-Jack is also able to wear the heavy costume for the photo shoot with ease and confidence. Once, he ordered his drinking buddy Siren to play the role of an enemy (Gronzon, a black-toothed demon) who will be beaten for a week if he lost in a IIDX contest. And thus, his subordinate was born.
After the filming was over, they were drunkenly parading around Kabukicho at night in their costumes when, of course, they were questioned by the police. The two villains were chased around by the police for two hours late at night. In the end, they had to eat katsudon (pork cutlet on rice) at the police station.
Q-Jack got seriously hooked on IIDX when he saw Nyah, a woman, beat men at their own game. Even now, he hasn't been able to win against her even once.
In IIDX, he especially likes to play dj TAKA's music. If you approach him from behind without being noticed, you can hear him humming "Memories," the lyrics of which he has recently forgotten.
His hobbies are baking cakes and figurines.
When he gave Nyah a doll of herself, she recoiled from it with all her might.
Nix
favorite foods: tonkatsu (pork cutlet) chazuke, unagi (eel) chazuke, beef bowl in the morning (with two eggs)
Character Backstory
Arcadia (Goli's Graphic Gallery)
Half Japanese, half American. If anything, Nix likes America more.
Shi-low and Nix always disagree on this point, but his favorite food is chazuke. Nix grew up at the [CLASSIFIED] Air Base and enlisted in the Air Force, wanting to be a pilot. However, he was unjustly discharged from the military due to a dispute with a superior officer. Since then, he has been searching for his life goal.
As an aspiring pilot, he has always had a good eye and high dynamic vision. Although he can easily handle challenging songs in IIDX, he rarely plays the game seriously and only plays it for fun. He usually works part-time at a gas station and plays around Shinjuku and Shibuya.
He has always loved games and music, and in IIDX, he likes the music of TaQ. He often listens to hard and austere music such as DRUM'N BASS and BIG BEAT. He and Erika, whom he often sees at the store (ROOTS26), seem to have the same taste.
He has been staying at Siren's house for almost a year without permission. He hates summer and always keeps his room air conditioned at a maximum of 18 degrees Celsius[note 1]. He does his best to stay away from places without air-conditioners, and ends up in a bad mood at his part-time job in the summer.
On the other hand, he's not pleasant during winter either. Once he gets into the kotatsu up to his head, he never comes out. During winter, he basically becomes a turtle. Of course, Siren pays the high utility bills, and they both catch colds.
