Latest revision as of 15:27, 6 December 2015

In the Neptunia series, there are a hundred or so minor background characters known as Residents. They show up only via the Gamipic interface, accessible on the map screens to say an isolated few lines at various points through the story. Sometimes they talk about completely random subjects, but often their dialogue is relevant to the plot progression, giving an idea of what normal people that have nothing to do with the CPUs think of the goings-on. Many are references to other video games or companies involved in the video game industry.

It's worth noting that in Original, only Residents show up via Gamipic, while in Sisters and Victory, all the major characters appear via Gamipic too. The name Gamipic is not mentioned until the prologue of Victory (where Neptune sends This is a...what do you call it? A Gamipic text message.) but is then mentioned many more times throughout that game.

List

Eventually, there will be a complete list here, with pictures of everyone. Remember this list is only for Residents, so anyone who ever appears in an actual cutscene (or is Stella) won't be listed here.

Please keep this list in alphabetical order for obvious reasons. Still deciding whether Stella's Victory Scouts should be listed here or in a separate list.

Basilicom Staff (3)
Appears in Victory. Comes in various different color schemes depending on which Basilicom they work for. Although the Planeptune Basilicom Staff appears in actual cutscenes in Original, the Basilicom Staff in Victory never appear in actual cutscenes, so qualify as Residents instead.
Beep (3)
Has some epic red highlights in her otherwise green hair, and her (rather odd) name written on her cap... which somehow sits under her hair. Not sure what she does, though.
Cat (3)
A white cat that can stand on two legs and speak. Apparently wants to be a human.
Dangly (3)
Appears to be Deco's friend, as he/she states it's lonely without Deco or "1st-gen" Compa. Presumably, if Compa was around, she might have saved Deco's life.
Deco (3)
A person whose only purpose in Victory seems to be to die by an unknown cause. This death is later reported on by the Nepstation TV channel as well as mentioned by Dangly.
Deer Girl (3)
An adorable invader from the mountains. Complete with antlers.
Dengekiko (3)
Also known as Dengeki Lass in Sisters. I think this is another magazine reference. Need to check.

A guy with a helmet. Need to find out what's special about him.
Evil Kid (3)
A fat kid with a fat face and a fat backpack. Likes pirated software and hardware.
Famitsu-chan (3)
A lively blonde girl in a colorful dress. She is a reference to the real Famitsu magazine, and releases info about gaming every week.
Full Metal Chef (3)
A chef... no idea if a reference to anything with Full Metal in its name, though.
Game Critic (3)
A long black haired woman who states she needs to analyse things logically for the sake of the industry. Another game magazine reference.
Glasses Girl (3)
A seifuku-clad girl with opaque spirally glasses. Not sure what she does, though.
Gramps Monster (3)
An elderly guy who stands on two legs but has some kind of lizard tail, wings and unicorn horn. Gives the player a Plan almost every time he appears.
Home Security (3)
A guy in a military suit complete with helmet and visor. Said helmet has NEET stamped on the forehead area.

Another reference to a game magazine.
Kamraman (3)

An orange-haired guy with bandages on his head and right foot, using one crutch with his left hand/arm and a game console with his right. Constantly plays games while walking down the road, getting into accidents more often than not, hence his permanent battered state.
