13 Kamen Riders
The 13 Kamen Riders (13人の仮面ライダー, Jūsannin no Kamen Raidā?) are the central characters of the series. Thirteen Card Decks (カードデッキ, Kādo Dekki?) were created for thirteen Kamen Riders. They make Contracts with monsters from the mysterious Mirror World (ミラーワールド, Mirā Wārudo?), a parallel dimension opposite to our own in which only the Kamen Riders can exist. The Riders draw on their monsters' strength in exchange for feeding them the life force of the creatures they destroy. The creator of the Advent Cards (アドベントカード, Adobento Kādo?) has only one rule: that there can be only one Kamen Rider. The others must be killed, and the sole victor will be granted a single wish, which leads to a conflict known as the Rider War.

Delight makes all of the one mind,
The riders upon the galloping horses,
The crowd that closes in behind....”
