'''Tenjo Amanohokosaka''' (天ノ矛坂テンジョウ), commonly referred to as '''Lord Tenjo''', is one of the previous Imperator's of the [[Novus Orbis Librarium]], the leader of the [[Ikaruga Federation]], and a member of the [[Amanohokosaka Clan]]. She is the mentor of [[Bang Shishigami]] and [[Kagura Mutsuki]], and the mother of [[Homura Amanohokosaka]]. She was assassinated during the [[Ikaruga Civil War]] by [[Jin Kisaragi]].

==Appearance==
Tenjo has large, deep red eyes, and long purple hair. White skin, pale lips, and eyelashes the same colour as her hair - her eyelids look as if they could fall at any moment, and most would think she was beautiful. To Jin Kisaragi, she looks exactly like his sister, [[Saya]].

==Personality==
==Personality==
Tenjo is a gracious and dignified leader who wishes for nothing more than peace and tranquillity for not just her citizens, but also those that she meets. She loves Ikaruga and her people. Tenjo cares greatly for Bang and Kagura and deeply loves Homura. Her general demeanour betrays her motherhood as she is outwardly maternal with those she spends time with. Her kindness and leadership qualities inspired her citizens and the loyalties of Bang, Kagura, and [[Meifang Lapislazuli]] even years after her death - a death she showed no fear of facing.
Despite her positions as the former Imperator of the NOL and leader of the Ikaruga Federation, Tenjo despises violence. The Ikaruga Civil War weighed heavily on her conscience as she felt powerless to stop it and ultimately blamed herself for its start. True conflict makes her heart ache, but she enjoys sparring and the cultivation of technique.


She spoke with a dignified aura, using older words and showing no fear in the face of death. Tenjo cared greatly for her people and her child, Homura, and would go above and beyond for them both. Tenjo despised war and conflict, but ultimately blamed herself for the start of the Ikaruga Civil War, and blamed her own powerlessness.  
In her spare time, Tenjo likes looking at flowers and practicing her calligraphy; she wishes to have someone she can talk with about the latter. Her speech pattern is full archaic language and phrases.


==Biography==
==Powers and Techniques==
An [[Art|Arts]] user who practices in the use of Ying-Yang [[Magic]]. Tenjo uses charms to fight and is able to use them to combat opponents. She can turn these charms into knives, cause them to conjure pillars of fire or raise spiked earth from the ground. Tenjo can further use these talismans to conjure lightning or even lift herself up into the air, forming a barrier beneath her feet which keeps her levitated above the ground. As well as this, Tenjo is a strong user of [[Ars Magus]] as she has the ability to use both the [[Deus Machina: Nirvana]] and [[Phoenix: Rettenjo]], two [[Nox Nyctores]] level weapons.


Born to the [[Amanohokosaka clan]], Tenjo became the Imperator at a young age, and took on two students - Kagura Mutsuki and Bang Shishigami, with both becoming members of her personal guard. During one meeting with nobles, Tenjo grew sick of it, and decided to walk into the gardens of the household to relax. There, she met [[Meifang Lapislazuli]], the child of the lesser noble family. Kagura interrupted them, and Tenjo punched him over the head for being rude to her guest - [[Houichirou Hazuki]] did the same, and carried him away. Over the years, both Tenjo and Meifang grew close as they would sometimes spend days walking through gardens. <ref>''BlazBlue: Variable Heart, Chapter 14''</ref> The details are unknown, but the body Tenjo was in was a vessel she was possessing. At some point, she met a man with brown hair and they had a child together - Homura Amanohokosaka. She would regularly have meetings with the [[Duodecim]].
Tenjo has a weak body, and uses her mask as a filter for [[seithr]]. Despite her physical fragility, she has a remarkably strong [[soul]], remaining inside both the Rettenjo and then [[Kushinada's Lynchpin]], and is able to activate the latter. As her dreams were taken from her by Ragna, it is possible that even after death, she was still marked as one of the [[chosen]].


In the Ikaruga Civil War, a coup d'etat was performed that removed Tenjo from her seat of power by [[Hazama]], [[Yuuki Terumi]], and [[Relius Clover]]. She formed the [[Ikaruga Federation]], created an alliance with [[Sector Seven]] and the NOL declared war against her. At one point, they were winning the war, but Tenjo had wished to end the war without casualty; the [[Committee]] pressured for the war to continue, and she was forced to. Rumours had circulated at this time that she wore a mask to hide a huge scar over her face.

She had planned to transfer her [[soul]] into the [[Nox Nyctores]] - [[Deus Machina: Nirvana]], but Relius stole it, and she was unable to do so. She went down to the basement of the [[Wadatsumi Castle]] and looked at the [[Kushinada's Lynchpin]] and [[Phoenix: Rettenjo]], taking the latter as she knew it was the last thing she could transfer her soul into, even if it meant living a life where she could not feel -
''She moves for the Ikaruga Federation to secede, but is met with opposition from other members on the committee who want to expand the Federation further using their advantageous position. As a result of their aggression, however, Sector Seven withdraws their support from the Federation, taking a neutral stance against them.''
anything. Tenjo transferred her soul, but remained in control of her former body, carrying herself out of the area. <ref>''BlazBlue: Spiral Shift - Hero of the Frozen Blade, Chapter 4''</ref>


Later on, Tenjo would give the Rettenjo, with her soul inside, to Bang, and issued for her ninjas to evacuate the castle, but Bang stayed by his mistresses' side. Jin Kisaragi stormed the castle using the [[Mucro Algesco: Yukianesa]], and fought Bang, leaving him permanently scarred, and froze the entire room using his '''Arctic Dungeon''' technique. Tenjo talked to Jin while Bang screamed for her to escape, but she stayed, and asked him to kill her and to fight against the "[[Hades: Izanami|death]]" that will be born. She threw a charm at him, baiting him to kill her - Jin used his ''Yukikaze'' technique and killed Tenjo's old body. Jin's memories were erased by Terumi, and Tenjo's old body was replaced by someone with a large scar on their face to match the rumours. <ref>''BlazBlue: Spiral Shift - Hero of the Frozen Blade, Chapter 6''</ref>
''After the destruction of the [[5th Hierarchical City of Ibukido]], the Federation make a valiant effort to hold their ground, but is eventually defeated by Jin Kisaragi's forces. Lord Tenjo's body is collected by [[Yuuki Terumi]].''


After the war had ended, Meifang desperately clung to the dream of making conflict extinct, all in remembrance of Tenjo's ideals; this would be done by making a [[Nox Nyctores]]. In her final moments, she saw a vision of Tenjo, and confessed that her true dreams were to just be by her side. <ref>''BlazBlue: Variable Heart, Chapter 18''</ref>
''Tenjo had acquired Kushinada's Lynchpin, and was attempting to nullify all the seithr in the vicinity. But realizing the nullification of seithr may increase the casualties of the war, she reconsiders this option.''

Bang finally came to realise that Tenjo's soul lay inside the Rettenjo he had been gifted years earlier. [[Rachel Alucard]] came to the realisation that there was another way to activate the Lynchpin without using [[Celica A. Mercury]]'s soul as the catalyst. Tenjo's soul was used instead, and the Rettenjo was hammered into the Lynchpin, stopping the flow of [[seithr]].

BlazBlue: Spiral Shift – Hero of the Frozen Blade

Tenjo Amanohokosaka (天ノ矛坂テンジョウ), commonly referred to as Lord Tenjo, is one of the previous Imperator's of the Novus Orbis Librarium, the leader of the Ikaruga Federation, and a member of the Amanohokosaka Clan. She is the mentor of Bang Shishigami and Kagura Mutsuki, and the mother of Homura Amanohokosaka. She was assassinated during the Ikaruga Civil War by Jin Kisaragi.

Tenjo was revealed for BlazBlue Alternative: Dark War on the 8th of July, 2021.

Appearance

Tenjo has large, deep red eyes, and long purple hair. White skin, pale lips, and eyelashes the same colour as her hair - her eyelids look as if they could fall at any moment, and most would think she was beautiful. To Jin Kisaragi, she looks exactly like his sister, Saya.

Towards the end of her life, Tenjo wears long white robes with red patterned lines running across it. On top of this she wears a purple robe, the same colour as her hair - both of these robes run down past her feet. On her head, she wears a small purple beret with multiple ornaments adorning it. She is last seen wearing a white mask with a red emblem near the eyes and nose; it covers her entire face.

As a child, Tenjo wore this same beret, and much smaller versions of the robes she would wear in adulthood. They seemed too big for her as a child.

Personality

Tenjo is a gracious and dignified leader who wishes for nothing more than peace and tranquillity for not just her citizens, but also those that she meets. She loves Ikaruga and her people. Tenjo cares greatly for Bang and Kagura and deeply loves Homura. Her general demeanour betrays her motherhood as she is outwardly maternal with those she spends time with. Her kindness and leadership qualities inspired her citizens and the loyalties of Bang, Kagura, and Meifang Lapislazuli even years after her death - a death she showed no fear of facing.

Despite her positions as the former Imperator of the NOL and leader of the Ikaruga Federation, Tenjo despises violence. The Ikaruga Civil War weighed heavily on her conscience as she felt powerless to stop it and ultimately blamed herself for its start. True conflict makes her heart ache, but she enjoys sparring and the cultivation of technique.

In her spare time, Tenjo likes looking at flowers and practicing her calligraphy; she wishes to have someone she can talk with about the latter. Her speech pattern is full archaic language and phrases.

Powers and Techniques

An Arts user who practices in the use of Ying-Yang Magic. Tenjo uses charms to fight and is able to use them to combat opponents. She can turn these charms into knives, cause them to conjure pillars of fire or raise spiked earth from the ground. Tenjo can further use these talismans to conjure lightning or even lift herself up into the air, forming a barrier beneath her feet which keeps her levitated above the ground. As well as this, Tenjo is a strong user of Ars Magus as she has the ability to use both the Deus Machina: Nirvana and Phoenix: Rettenjo, two Nox Nyctores level weapons.

As her dreams were taken from her by Ragna, it is possible that even after death, she was still marked as one of the chosen.
