In The Game, there were special characters that were exiled from their world due to one reason or another. The exiled characters were removed from their world and were given the role of Wanderer, someone who is not tied to a specific place. In some form, the exiled were banished from their respective worlds by someone associated with or the representatives themselves. The souls of the exiles were coalesced by unknown means into a vessel we now know as the Protagonist. Though not readily apparent, those people who have special abilities to sense more are able to tell, usually as a vague feeling, that there are multiple souls in the Protagonist. The game often describes the souls within the Protagonist as resembling dragons.
Exiles
Listed here are the exiles that have been mentioned or alluded to in the main quest, events, character quests, and summopedias:

Exile: Susanoo
Rule: To cut authority
- A god in Japanese mythology, Susanoo-no-Mikoto is associated with the seas and storms. He is the brother of Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi.
- Amaterasu often describes the protagonist as her brother and, in a way, Tsukuyomi too but he sees that the Protagonist isn't his brother, rather they merely house his soul.
- Tadikarao identified Susanoo inside the Protagonist via scent and describes him as being a delinquent that terrorized their village so much that their elder sister could no longer leave the house.
- This mirrors the Japanese tale where Susanoo, in a fit of rage after being defeated, caused Amaterasu to flee the heavens and hid inside a cave refusing to get out, plunging the world into darkness and chaos. Tadikarao was one of the gods to get her out, where his job was to open up the cave Amaterasu hid in.
- Susanoo was described to have disappeared into the ends of the far off plateau.

Exile: Yoshitsune
Rule: To cut distance
- A legendary figure in Japanese history, Minamoto no Yoshitsune was a military commander of the Minamoto clan of Japan in the late Heian and early Kamakura periods.
- Multiple characters in-game have noticed Yoshitsune inside protagonist but the more prominent is Oniwaka, also called Benkei, a loyal and strong retainer of Yoshitsune.
- Shino mentions that the Protagonist's ability to cut through distance was similar to his beloved, which is Fusehime from the Japanese epic novel Nansō Satomi Hakkenden, but closer to the "source". This is due to speculation that Fusehime may have descended from Yoshitsune's bloodline. This is also why most of the Hakkenshi feel a strong sense of duty towards the Protagonist as it is in their blood to carry out the job their family was tasked with.

There, along with his retainer Benkei, would teach the Ainu people how to hunt, fish, and other useful skills. Yoshitsune would then be called Okikurumi.
- Being bestowed a sacred sword on him from the god of parenting, Aynurakkur would call upon his father's thunder through the sword, annihilating the evil deities in the realm of darkness. However, getting disappointed with the corruption among the people of Kamui Kotan, aged Aynurakkur eventually disappears from there, leaving the people in regret.
- There are number of stories that speak about the origin of Aynurakkur. He is said to be the son of, variously, the elm tree, thunder, the sun, or Pakor-kamuy, the god of plague.
- Korpokkur calls the Protagonist as a child of the dragon, to which he explains that those were attributed to thunder in his world of Kamuy Kotan. A thunder god in Ainu mythology, Kanna Kamui was also depicted as a dragon and together with the spirit of an elm tree, bore Oyna-kamui.
- Outside of Korpokkur, Kimun Kamui tells the Protagonist how they smell similar to a hero from his world that had set off on a journey with a sacred sword in hand along with a helmet and armor. Kimun Kamui says that his pelt if made into armor, would be kept as a precious and noble item, and asks again if the Protagonist knew nothing of what he was talking about but still suggest they might have been a famous hero.
- Horkeu Kamui, a trainer for heroes in his world, was adamant about the Protagonist being the one that would wield a sacred sword that would cut Kamuy Kotan's stagnation held only by the heroes of his world.

Rule: To cut gap
- The exile from this world is Lugh, God of Sun and Light, and Balor's grandson. Lugh was fated to be killed by his grandfather but was incidentally thrown into the ocean, where in some accounts a Leanan Sidhe familiar of his father saved him. He was then raised by Manannán.

- The rule to cut the "gap" might be closer to being able to hit at something's weakness or "gap" in their defense as Balor's weakness was his eye which was pierced by a shot made by Lugh with his sling.
