Other names on this wiki
Irene, Ezra, Faro, Asterion, and Ariadne are extra roster names. Only Ariadne is named in a
tracked first-party post (DEVBLOG #3). The others stay listed so the URL does not vanish, but
this hub does not invent personality, skills, or weapons for them.
Irene
Name on this wiki’s extra roster
✔ Official Irene is listed here because the name circulates with Sophia’s camp-side cast. The tracked Steam store page and Steam news hub do not describe her role, equipment, or personality.
This wiki does not invent a temperament, skill list, or weapon for her.

Ezra
Name on this wiki’s extra roster
✔ Official Ezra is listed here because the name circulates with Sophia’s camp-side cast. The tracked Steam store page and Steam news hub do not describe his role, equipment, or personality.
This wiki does not invent a navigator temperament, rumour skill, or unique weapon for him.

Faro
Name on this wiki’s extra roster
✔ Official Faro is listed here because the name circulates with Sophia’s camp-side cast. The tracked Steam store page and Steam news hub do not describe his role, equipment, or personality.
This wiki does not invent “muscle on the water,” a training relationship with Sophia, or a named relic blade.

Asterion
Classical Minotaur name — not a first-party Resonance bio
✔ Official Asterion is the classical personal name attached to the Minotaur in Greek myth. Asobo’s DEVBLOG #3 retells Minos, the Minotaur, Daedalus, Theseus, and Ariadne. It does not name Asterion as a Resonance character.
This wiki does not treat the mythic name as a confirmed on-screen role, skill tree, or weapon slot.
Full Asterion profile →
Ariadne
Named in Asobo’s official myth summary
✔ Official DEVBLOG #3, “Into The Myth,” retells Ariadne as Minos’s daughter who gives Theseus a thread, then is abandoned. Asobo’s line is that Resonance begins the moment the thread vanishes.
The same post does not confirm that Ariadne appears as an on-screen ally, trainer, or playable character. Equipment is not published.

What is confirmed right now
Official Steam text confirms Sophia as the protagonist, references "the entwined destinies
of two heroes linked by fate" across two eras, and names Daedalus as the mythological figure
who wove light into the island. Official Steam news adds Leni as Sophia’s friend, Alec as
her father and the leader of her childhood plunderer camp, and Theseus as the legendary hero
whose perspective is part of the Minoan-era story.
The hostile entity is still unnamed in the tracked first-party material. Its role is not the
same as Theseus: the store page describes a restless hunter in the island’s shadows, while
the gameplay announcement identifies Theseus as the presence resonating within Sophia.
Irene, Ezra, Faro, and Asterion are extra names without a first-party bio on this wiki.
