Characters

  • Nemo
The captain of the Nautilus II and son of the original Captain Nemo. He is calm and collected, chivalrious, fearless. Though he does have a bit of a weakness when it comes to the opposite sex, due to the fact he's had very little exposure to them at sea. Like his father before him, he has sworn never to set foot on land until every man is free from tyranny.
  • Camille Pierpont
The daughter of a noble family, she is saved by Nemo after falling in the ocean when the Nautilus II attacks the ship sent to sink it. Camille might both become a member of the crew as long as she is a "prisoner" aboard the Nautilus II and also she might become a love interest for Nemo and a rival for Sarah Wakely. Though it is also possible that Sarah hitting Camille with throwing knives during their first meeting has caused the tension that now exists between the two.
  • Sarah Wakely
Sarah is the ship's medic aboard the Nautilus II and a lethal shot. She is also a possible rival to Camille for Nemo's affection. However, for some reason she also ended up attacking Camille from the start with throwing knives something that obviously did not sit well with Camille. One important thing to note is that she is the daughter of the infamous killer Jack the Ripper.

Nemo's Butler and close friend. Conseil is very knowledgeable about sea life, and fascinated by sea life too, he is also a master chef. It is possible that he is the same Conseil from Jules Verne's novel.

  • Napoleon IV

The current despot ruler of the French Empire. His father, Napoleon III had dealt with Captain Nemo Senior and in the end, managed to slay him and sink the Nautillus I. He considers Camille's father as useful, but keeps him at arm's length, due to Bertrand's less than shining heritage.

Famous quotes containing the word characters:

    What makes literature interesting is that it does not survive its translation. The characters in a novel are made out of the sentences. That’s what their substance is.
    Jonathan Miller (b. 1936)

    Philosophy is written in this grand book—I mean the universe—
    which stands continually open to our gaze, but it cannot be understood unless one first learns to comprehend the language and interpret the characters in which it is written. It is written in the language of mathematics, and its characters are triangles, circles, and other geometrical figures, without which it is humanly impossible to understand a single word of it.
    Galileo Galilei (1564–1642)

    Waxed-fleshed out-patients
    Still vague from accidents,
    And characters in long coats
    Deep in the litter-baskets
    All dodging the toad work
    By being stupid or weak.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
