Since Japanese personal pronouns tend to show insight on what characters think about themselves, does anyone know what the Riviera characters use?

To start off with, I know that Ein and Lina both use "boku", and Ledah uses "watashi". "Boku" is a pronoun generally reserved for boys and young men, although tomboyish girls sometimes use it as well. "Watashi" is the default polite personal pronoun, and is usually used by women (they don't have options other than "boku" and "atashi", which are generally used by younger people) and men with middle-to-high social rank who prefer to be polite.
