'''Mei Amanohokosaka''' (天ノ矛坂冥) is a major character in ''XBlaze Code: Embryo'' and ''XBlaze Lost: Memories''. She is the Shrine Maiden of the [[Amanohokosaka Clan|Amanohokosaka clan]] and works with the [[Mitsurugi Agency]] in combating the [[Union]] threat in [[Shin Yokozaki City]].<br />
<br />
==Appearance==<br />
<br />
To be added.<br />
<br />
==Personality==<br />
<br />
Above all else, Mei is defined by her desire to be seen as mature and respectable. Having lost her family at the age of 5, Mei grew up alone and under the control of [[Souichiro Unomaru]], leaving her without friends or a positive influence to learn social skills. As Mei worked hard to master [[Magic]], she developed a lot of pride in herself that would lead to her being defensive in regards to anything she feels would undermine that. Ironically, Mei’s insistence on her maturity actually shows her to be incredibly immature since she is prone to violent outbursts or hurling insults whenever someone annoys her. Unfortunately, she has a very wide range of things that can trigger this reaction, from [[Touya Kagari|Touya Kagari’s]] constant apologizing to her being unwilling to admit she is unable to swim. This seems to be something of a knee jerk reaction as Mei will insult people and run away even when they are nice to her, and she has admitted after the fact that she didn’t want to do that, but was unable to come up with a proper response to kindness. As she continues to spend time with others, she starts to see them as friends and opens up more. This allows her to occasionally show a softer side that cares for their wellbeing, although she will sometimes follow that up by claiming her concerns are purely pragmatic.<br />
<br />
While Mei started out as cold and demeaning towards most people she met, she had a particularly strong hatred for [[Kuon Glamred Stroheim]]. Mei assumed Kuon to be a pampered princess without real skill as a [[Mage]]. This opinion was colored by her longstanding hatred of the [[Magic Guild]] as a whole since it was responsible for the downfall of her clan and her currently difficult life under Unomaru’s thumb. However, after Kuon was able to fight her to a draw, Mei apologized for her dismissal of Kuon’s skill, realizing Kuon had worked just as hard as her. Despite them continuing to insult and mock each other, this marked the point where their relationship changed from open hostility to a good-natured rivalry.<br />
<br />
Additionally, Mei hides a dark secret that she never wants to be discovered by anyone. She is an otaku with a love of anime and tokusatsu. It is an interest that she thinks is embarrassing and childish so she will hypocritically make fun of Kuon for being a casual fan while she in fact is much more knowledgeable about the subject and is something of an elitist in criticizing others’ preferences.<br />
<br />
==Powers & Techniques==<br />
<br />
As an [[Exorcist]], Mei is skilled in the use of Ying-Yang Magic. She has a variety of charms and talismans uses to cast her spells such as healing charms and the Goofball Proximity Surveyor. She can use her magic to enhance one's physical attributes, such as giving Es the strength to jump up a large building to catch Hinata and can even make herself fly. One of Mei's primary means of attack is her '''{{h|Shikigami Raven}}''' spell, which can immobilize anything it touches. The spell has a variant that can home in on an opponent and even dodge incoming attacks, but can only be used if Mei stands still to focus on it. She also can use the more powerful '''{{h|Shikigami Tensoushojin}}'''.<br />
<br />
Additionally, Mei has knowledge of Lightning Magic, letting her fire blasts of electricity. She can unleash a barrage of attacks with '''{{h|Shikigami Thunderstorm}}''' or unleash a single powerful blast with '''{{h|Rise Thunder Beast}}'''.<br />
<br />
Having been fighting Unions since she was 10 years old, Mei has accumulated a large amount of combat experience, making her an intelligent fighter. While she is not skilled at hand-to-hand combat, she is capable of defending herself from close-range attacks, being able to block Kuon's surprise kick.<br />
<br />
Being a descendant of the Azure Shrine Maiden, Mei possesses the ability to sense the Azure, although at a much lower level than her ancestor. This allows her to hear a Union's Discover Call.<br />
<br />
In the Mei Route of ''XBlaze Code: Embryo'', Mei allows Sechs to turn her into a Union. This gives her the Drive '''{{h|Blood Cain}}''', which is capable of sealing the power of the Origin of the Grimoire.<br />

<br />
;Mei Amanohokosaka<br />
<br />
''Grudgingly works with the Mitsurugi Agency. The scion of the Amanohokosaka clan, she has been hunting Unions since she was a child. As a result, she is far more mature than her peers and often has problems relating to them. She practices a unique form of magic which she primarily uses to obtain information, though she will occasionally use her powers in combat. Due to the machinations of the Magic Guild, her clan had to give up their possession of Takamagahara (the Legendary Lands). What resulted was the Wadatsumi Incident and the death of Mei's mother, and the start of an intense hatred of the Magic Guild and its members.'' <ref>''XBlaze Code: Embryo, Character Report''</ref><br />

'''Hibiki Kohaku''' (ヒビキ=コハク) is a captain of the [[Novus Orbis Librarium]] who first appeared in ''[[BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma]]''. He is [[Kagura Mutsuki]]’s loyal servant, and helped him in the coup d’état against [[Izanami]]. He wields twin blades named [[Kagari Rokushikisouken]]. <ref>Confirmed in a letter to the ArcSystemWorks livestream on 17/11/2017</ref><br />
<br />
As of ''[[BlazBlue: Central Fiction]]'', he became a playable character.<br />
<br />
==Appearance==<br />
<br />
Hibiki is a slender young man with effeminate features, pale skin, and black hair styled in a short bob. His eye color varies between dark brown and a golden amber. Hibiki wears the standard jolting sapphire NOL overcoat with yellow trim, altered to rest just below his shoulders. His overcoat falls to his ankles, but has a decorative slit on the right side long enough to reveal his legs. Underneath it, he wears a collared white shirt with a red tie over a skintight black undershirt.<br />
<br />
In Central Fiction, he wears a short jolting sapphire cape with a standing collar that obscures the lower half of his face. The capelet is cut asymmetrically, for the most part falling to his waist but with a "tail" that extending down to his ankles over his right shoulder. This "tail" has the NOL emblem printed on it. Underneath the cape he wears a white, long-sleeved dress shirt that rests around his shoulders and a black, skintight undershirt that covers his shoulders, collar, and half of his neck. The back of his uniform is open near the top, revealing his shoulder blades and some of his back. Hibiki's shirt is split from his waist down on both sides to reveal blue cloth underneath, the edges held together with thin black belts. He wears skintight black legging boots, with a slightly raised heel. Hibiki hangs a large metal sheathe at his lower back to hold his short, straight twin swords and spare detachable blades.<br />
<br />
==Personality==<br />
<br />
{{Quote|Strict and particular about details. Though he speaks severely when Kagura indulges in women and alcohol, he never oversteps his bounds as a secretary.<ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction Consumer Edition Official Site (JP), [http://www.blazblue.jp/cf/cs/character/hibiki.php Hibiki Kohaku]''</ref>}}<br />
<br />
Patience is one of Hibiki’s greatest virtues as he often has to put up with Kagura's constant antics. In comparison to his lord, he is far more organized, strict, and disciplined, and handles most of the administrative duties within Ikaruga. His relationship with Kagura is complicated. Although Hibiki would do anything in his service, he would also often harshly and bluntly criticize his lord's actions (such as his excessive drinking or behavior towards women). Despite Kagura's shortcomings, Hibiki admires him and remains steadfast in his loyalty to him. He acts as a foil to Kagura, leading to a complicated, but very deep, relationship.<br />
<br />
Hibiki maintains significantly darker feelings about himself, going so far to say that he lacks desires of his own and will always remain empty.<ref>''BlazBlue Central Fiction, Arcade Mode, Hibiki Kohaku, Act 2''</ref> He only wishes to be used as a tool.<br />
<br />
==Powers and Techniques==<br />
<br />
As a member of the Kohaku family, Hibiki’s abilities as an assassin are unmatched. He has an ability that allows him to move about undetected by even the sharpest of senses and can activate it at will. His mobility is to be complimented too, as he can perform highly gymnastic feats with ease and move at lightning quick speeds. Should the need arise, he can use his [[Drive]] '''Double Chase''', and create a shadow clone of himself as a distraction so he can move in for the kill with his twin blades - both of which he wields with deadly accuracy and intricate skill. These swords are named Kagari Rokushikisouken. Multiple elongated knives are also part of his arsenal, and he uses them for throwing. Double Chase also allows him to physically replace the clone as a feint when fighting an opponent.<br />
<br />
==Library Entry==<br />
===Hibiki Kohaku===<br />
''Kagura’s right-hand man.<br />
<br />
''He belongs to the NOL, and currently holds the rank of Captain. In lieu of the extremely lazy Kagura, he handles a vast majority of the administrative duties within Ikaruga.<br />
<br />
''He’s a bright bulb, but can at times be extremely blunt and even hurtful. Despite that, he places absolute trust in Kagura’s decision-making.<ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Library Mode, Character #069''</ref> <br />
<br />
==Trivia==<br />
*In the BlazBlue 10th Anniversary Character Poll, Hibiki placed 3rd out of the 84 candidates. He scored one place lower than [[Hazama]], and one point above [[Yuuki Terumi]]. He had 4,861 votes.<br />
*Hibiki's moveset is named after various types of birds, both real and mythological.<br />
*When fighting against Kagura, Hibiki's ''Piercing Feather'' move will throw paperwork instead of knives - a humorous reference to his occupation as Kagura's secretary.<br />
<br />
==Appearances in other Media==<br />
*The mobile game, ''Mabinogi Duel'', stars Hibiki as a playable card.<br />

'''Hazama''' (ハザマ), also known as Corporal '''Honoka''' (ホノカ伍長), was a Captain of the [[Novus Orbis Librarium]]. He was the former vessel of [[Yuuki Terumi]], created by [[Relius Clover]], and a former wielder of the [[Nox Nyctores]] - [[Geminus Anguium: Ouroboros]]. Hazama is an [[Blue Grimoire]] who seeks nothing but pain as it is something he cannot truly feel.<br />
<br />
==Appearance==<br />
<br />
Hazama is a tall, thin man similar in terms of physical appearance to Yuuki Terumi’s human form. He has narrow eyes which appear as if they are permanently shut, and short green hair which he wears in a bowl cut. He is almost universally seen with a suspicious smile on his face. Hazama’s clothing consists of a dress suit with two brown belts and a wallet chain, a long black coat with two large golden buckles on it, and a matching black fedora. He also wears steel-toed shoes (in which he hides his butterfly knives) and a pair of brown fingerless gloves.<br />
<br />
When Terumi takes full control of his body (paired with removing his hat and tie), Hazama’s hair spikes up to match Terumi’s human form, and his eyes open to reveal a snakelike appearance. Hazama is still able to take on this appearance even after he becomes a separate person from Terumi in [[BlazBlue: Central Fiction|Central Fiction]]. <br />
<br />
Due to his nature as an artificial human, Hazama’s body is hollow on the inside, as seen through the hole that [[Platinum the Trinity]] made in his chest. Despite this, he is capable of performing normal human functions such as breathing and eating food.<br />
<br />
==Personality==<br />
<br />
{{Quote|At first glance, the man looks like a reserved and weak-willed young man. He is constantly smiling and is well-mannered to almost everyone, but in reality, he could care less about anything that doesn't involve his mission.<ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction Consumer Edition Official Site (JP), [http://www.blazblue.jp/cf/cs/character/hazama.php Hazama]''</ref><ref>''BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma Official Site (EU), Character - [http://www.blazblue.jp/eu/chara_hazama.html Hazama]''</ref>}}<br />
<br />
Initially, Hazama appears as a courteous man who is solely focused on his mission and manners. He addresses everyone with the appropriate honorifics, has a sense of humor, and maintains a professional courtesy at all times. His facade, however, belies the personality of a sadistic monster. Every word that comes from his mouth drips with poison designed to turn friends against each other, and he seemingly takes joy in mocking his opponents and even allies at every turn. Subtlety is his strong suit, and he relishes in making others experience pain.<br />
<br />
In some instances, it appears that Hazama is rather weak-willed; he will follow the orders of his superiors with little whim, using his blades and Ouroboros in their service. To others, however, Hazama will use every trick at his disposal to manipulate someone, always grinning even as he issues orders for those under his command to murder their friends. He has no qualms about murdering hundreds of people, especially those who trust him, and the exact toll of those he has killed under his command is unknown. Even though he wields a Nox Nyctores, Hazama has not been suffering from any adverse mental side-effects.<br />
<br />
Hazama does not understand pain or other human emotions, and it is his wish as one of the [[chosen]] to inflict pain across the population as well as truly experience it himself. The sheer thrill from being hurt is enough to send him into throes of joy.<ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 008, Chapter 062''</ref> In his desperate attempts to understand others, Hazama has tortured others, not discriminating between targets.<ref>'' BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 011, Chapter 094''</ref> Unlike Terumi, Hazama is rarely vulgar and rarer still allows his mask of an NOL captain to slip, but the times when he does are the most terrifying. <br />
<br />
In his own time, Hazama enjoys eating whole boiled eggs and collecting silver accessories. He is deathly allergic to cats, cat-[[beastkin]], and the [[Kaka]], and does his best to avoid them for his own health.<br />
<br />
==Powers & Techniques==<br />
Despite his appearance being that of a slender and weak man, Hazama is far stronger than what his physical appearance suggests. He wields two [[wikipedia:balisong|balisong]] with a deadly precision, keeping both of them hidden from opponents until they are close enough for him to strike. He also has various throwing knives, smoke bombs<ref>''BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger - Part 2, Chapter 3 - False Hero''</ref>, and shoe knives hidden in his heels. Like Terumi, Hazama appears to also be capable of creating green energy to fight. Throughout a battle, Hazama toys with his opponents, moving in a manner similar to dancing.<br />
<br />
As he wields the Geminus Anguium: Ouroboros, Hazama has the ability to use its chains in battle. He can quickly swing himself across the battlefield using the chains, becoming a difficult target to hit. This is reflected in gameplay, where his [[Drive]] is '''{{h|Ouroboros}}''', and by throwing out the Nox, he can use it propel himself across the screen to fight, being a highly agile and difficult to hit opponent. Hazama also uses Ouroboros to ensnare opponents, constricting them and being able to lift them far above the ground with minimal effort. He can summon it at any time he desires, and is also capable of employing strong [[Ars Magus]] in battle. Ouroboros' snare is so strong that not even [[Iron Tager]] can break free from its grasp<ref>''BlazBlue: Continuum Shift, Story Mode, Iron Tager - loyalty, Bad Ending''</ref> and the Nox has the ability to stir the emotions and memories of those in its grip.<ref>''BlazBlue: Continuum Shift, Teach Me, Miss Litchi! Episode 5 - Ars Armagus? Nox Nyctores? What the?''</ref><br />
<br />
Hazama is unique as he is a living [[Grimoire]], specifically a Blue Grimoire. He is able to directly access the [[Boundary]] similar to a [[cauldron]] and the [[Azure Grimoire]], and employ [[seithr]] to directly strengthen himself, his Ars Magus, and Ouroboros. Hazama is also able to fuse with a [[Boundary Interface Prime Field Device]] and become a [[Kusanagi]] or a [[Black Beast]], but neither has happened. <br />
<br />
Owing to his nature as a master manipulator, Hazama is a cunning tactician and, despite all his strengths, does not like fighting, often leaving others to do it in his stead. As he was usually sharing his body with Terumi, the two could switch at a moment's notice, changing tactics and fighting styles, but this is no longer the case as they have separated.<br />
<br />
==Library Entry==<br />
===Hazama===<br />
''A Captain in the NOL’s Intelligence Department, codenamed Hazama.<br />
<br />
''His constant gentle expression makes it difficult to grasp his true intentions. He avoids confrontation, always bowing and giving way to whomever he speaks, but that does not mean he’s a pushover. It would not be an understatement to say his schemes have schemes of their own, and seldom will his plans fail. <br />
<br />
''His true identity is in fact one of the Six Heroes who defeated the Black Beast, Yuuki Terumi. Terumi is a violent, inhumane character, who finds pleasure in watching others suffer.<br />
<br />
''The current vessel, ‘Hazama’ is Relius’s creation during the Dark War.<br />
<br />
''He plotted to use the Sword of the Godslayer, Kusanagi to destroy the Master Unit in Kagutsuchi, but is stopped by Ragna. Finding the silver lining in his mission’s failure, however, he seizes the Takamagahara that once controlled him.<br />
<br />

'''Ragna the Bloodedge''' (ラグナ=ザ=ブラッドエッジ) is the main protagonist of the ''[[BlazBlue]]'' series. He is the wielder of the [[Azure Grimoire]] and [[Aramasa]]. Ragna is the older brother of [[Jin Kisaragi]] and [[Saya]], having also spent most of his adolescence in the care of [[Jubei]]. <br />
<br />
Ragna is one of the twelve original playable characters who debuted in ''[[BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger]]''.<br />
<br />
==Appearance==<br />
[[File:BlazBlue Ragna the Bloodedge Model Sheet 01.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Ragna's usual attire]]<br />
Ragna is a tall, muscular young man, with fair skin, spiky white hair, a pitch black right arm and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heterochromia_iridum heterochromia]; in Ragna's case his left eye is green, while his right eye is red. These distinguishing features are a side effect caused by the Azure Grimoire when it replaced his lost arm. His left ear has a green, studded earring and on his chest and he has a black, half-sun-shaped symbol with the inscription -No.5- above it tattooed on his chest. This symbol also appears on parts of his clothing, but without the inscription. Towards the end of his life in the BlazBlue world, due to overusing the Azure Grimoire, the right side of his body had become corrupted, leaving even half his face covered in black with bright red veins.<br />
<br />
Ragna's usual outfit consists of a red, long-sleeved jacket with padded shoulders and multiple silver plates fastened on the arms and sides. Attached to the lapels of his jacket are two black straps with silver buckles that wrap under his arms and intersect at the back, they are connected to his shoulder pads by small gold buttons. On the back of his jacket are a set of two red straps with silver tips hanging from it, which reach down to his ankles. Underneath the jacket is a simple, long-sleeved black shirt with a white trim. He also wears a pair of black gloves which have [[seithr regulators]] on the back of them, as well as a black hakama, two large black belts with silver belt buckles and a pair of red boots with steel toecaps.<br />
<br />
During his tenure as Bloodedge, Ragna's right eye was constantly shut because of [[Celica A. Mercury|Celica A. Mercury's]] presence and her ability to unconsciously suppress seithr. He wore his jacket normally on his left side, but kept the right side tied to his waist. His right arm, which also didn't work due to Celica, was covered in several black and white straps; these partially obscured the grimoire and the regulator on his hand, and were secured at the top of his arm with a golden buckle.<br />
<br />
As a child, Ragna had spiky blond hair and green eyes, and wore a white shirt with black trousers and black shoes.<br />
<br />
While training under Jubei as a teenager, Ragna wore a red and black sleeveless turtle neck top, with a tight black shirt underneath it. Ragna also wore black, baggy trousers and a simple brown belt, just like during his time as Bloodedge, Ragna's Azure Grimoire was covered in belts secured with golden buckles.<br />
<br />
In one gag reel, Ragna is seen in beachwear. Instead of his usual jacket, Ragna wore a crimson zip hoodie with black stripes on the arms and a black hood. It also has a chibi version of Dead Spike on a triangular white badge. He also wore swimming trunks with a color gradation from orange to red to black, with a white waistband and black flip flops.<br />
<br />
==Personality==<br />
<br />
{{Quote|Although Ragna himself is proactive, Ragna's battles are often rough and unplanned, and the times he has won through force alone are many. Although he speaks rudely and acts conspicuously violent, at his roots he is not a bad person. That he is a wanted criminal with a hefty bounty on his head is something that he himself doesn't remember at all. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction Consumer Edition Official Site (JP), [http://www.blazblue.jp/cf/cs/character/ragna.php Ragna the Bloodedge]''</ref><ref>''BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma Official Site (US), [http://blazblueuniverse.com/ragna Ragna the Bloodedge]''</ref>}}<br />
<br />
Often, Ragna is described as being rough around the edges. He frequently swears and displays antisocial behaviour. However, he is actually kind to those who he cares about, and will stop at nothing to make sure they are safe. He's rarely open about his feelings towards others, with this trait most notably displayed in his interactions with [[Rachel Alucard]] and his brother, [[Jin Kisaragi]]. Ragna often charges in blindly without thinking ahead, but there have been times when this attitude has worked out for him. Few people mean more to Ragna than his family.<br />
<br />
Even though he can come off as serious for most his interactions with people, Ragna does have a sense of dry humor and often displays it when he's around [[Taokaka]]. He's also understanding of the younger cast, and has been seen playing with the [[Kaka Kittens]], as well as going along with Tao's eccentric behaviour. Ragna has also been known to buy meals for both Tao and [[Platinum the Trinity]] when he thought they were starving, despite not knowing either of them at the time.<br />
<br />
Ragna used to hold a stigma against all [[Boundary Interface Prime Field Device|Boundary Interface Prime Field Devices]] but over time, he came to accept them. Before he moved on to the [[World of the Gods]], he began to drop his antisocial behaviour, and was willing to sacrifice himself in order to save everyone from [[Doomsday]] and [[Susano'o]]. He forgot about no one during this time, even saving [[Tenjo Amanohokosaka]], whom he had never met.<br />
<br />
==Powers and Techniques==<br />
Befitting of his title as the ''Grim Reaper'', Ragna possesses great power, although he seldom uses it to its full extent. Having spent nearly all of his adolescence under Jubei, Ragna is at the peak of physical fitness, and finds little difficulty in wielding his oversized sword - the Aramasa. Aramasa can deliver heavy blows with large blade, and can transform into a scythe at Ragna's command. Even with Aramasa alone, Ragna can defeat scores of NOL soldiers without exerting himself.<ref>''[[Memory of Blue]]''</ref><br />
<br />
What defines Ragna as the Grim Reaper is the power of the Azure Grimoire. Having had the device for most of his life, Ragna demonstrates great mastery over it. The [[grimoire]] has an aura that drains the [[soul|souls]] of those around it, and heals Ragna with the lives it takes. This is an artificial [[Drive]] given to Ragna, as he was born without one. It is called '''{{h|[[Soul Eater]]}}''', and in gameplay, it performs the same function by restoring health to Ragna every time he lands a successful Drive attack. Because the Azure Grimoire is essentially a [[cauldron]], Ragna has an endless supply of [[seithr]] at his disposal, and he has demonstrated the ability to summon various dark energies that resemble parts of the [[Black Beast]], such as with his signature '''{{h|Dead Spike}}''' ability. Aramasa works well with the Azure Grimoire as Ragna channels the latter's power through the sword. Ragna can absorb the wishes and dreams of the [[chosen]] using Soul Eater, although his body has to pay a heavy toll to continuously do so.<br />
<br />
Before the incident at the church, Ragna had no gift in [[Ars Magus]], and was completely unable to use it. The Azure Grimoire has remedied his aptitude, and he is capable of using several different Ars. One allows him to become completely invisible to man and beast, and is something he uses to move between [[Hierarchical City|Hierarchical Cities]] without being detected<ref>''BlazBlue: Continuum Shift Extend, Story Mode - Calamity Trigger Reconstruction - Starting Over''</ref>; another allows him to drastically slow his descent from high falls.<ref>''BlazBlue: Alter Memory, Episode 03 - The Spectating Eye''</ref> In order to contain the incredible power from the Azure Grimoire, Ragna wears a [[seithr regulator]] on the back of each hand, but their limits can be released. <br />
<br />
As an artificial human, Ragna is capable of resisting the power of the Azure Grimoire, and takes time for it to completely corrupt and destroy his body. Furthermore, Ragna has an accelerated healing factor because of the device, and has survived numerous attacks that would kill an ordinary human. He has survived having lost both of his arms, and being stabbed by a [[Nox Nyctores]]. Ragna's will to survive is what has allowed him to withstand incredible pain. Despite his brutish nature, Ragna can come up with quick plans and solutions, and occasionally displays flashes of academic brilliance, such as immediately recognising [[Fuzzy]] as a [[vampire]].<ref>''BlazBlue: Variable Heart, Chapter 8''</ref> Years under Jubei's tutelage has taught him much about the world and its history, and Ragna is a capable cook who specialises in barbecue.<ref>''BlazBlue Official Cosplay Information''</ref><br />
<br />
Unfortunately, Ragna has many weaknesses. His headstrong nature leads him to make rash decisions, although he has mellowed over time and become more level-headed. The Azure Grimoire will certainly kill him, or worse, turn him into a Black Beast. Whenever he is around [[Celica A. Mercury]], he loses sight in his right eye and cannot use the Azure Grimoire, but [[Kokonoe]] has since solved this with a [[Noise Canceller]]. <br />
==Library Entry==<br />
<br />
===Ragna the Bloodedge===<br />
''The protagonist of our story.<br />
<br />
''He bears the weight of the Azure Grimoire on his right hand, and is commonly known as the 'Grim Reaper'<br />
<br />
''His personality is rough around the edges, and he hardly plans ahead. His fighting style reflects this, and most of his attacks involve charging at the opponent and swinging wildly, rather than with precision. He has a bit of a foul mouth, but he cares deeply about those close to him.<br />
<br />
''During his younger years, he lived with his brother Jin, his sister Saya, and the Sister that was taking care of them in a small church. But that all came to an end when Yuuki Terumi murdered the Sister in cold blood, and took Jin and Saya with him. Ragna lost his right arm during this encounter. As a result of the shock, his blonde hair turned white, and his fusion with the remains of the Black Beast turned his right eye red.<br />
<br />
''Originally, he was not adept in Ars Magus, but with the Azure Grimoire now bound to his body, he is able to wield it effectively. With Jubei's teachings, his combative prowess grows formidable, and he decides to rebel against the Librarium on his own.<br />
<br />
''His goal? Destroy all the cauldrons, in which the Murakumo Unit can be smelted. In the process of taking down all the NOL branches, he becomes the most wanted man, with the highest bounty in the world. Some say, however, that his true motive is to find Saya's whereabouts.<br />
<br />
''As if beckoned by Rachel's call, he makes his way to the 13th Hierarchical City of Kagutsuchi, and fights the mysterious girl known as ν-No.13-. As he's about to fall into the cauldron himself, Noel saves him, breaking the previously infinite loop of time.<br />
<br />
''Ragna returns the favor not long after, saving Noel in exchange for his left arm, when Terumi turns her into μ-No.12-. And to his surprise, after saving Noel, he encounters the 'girl' for whom he was searching. Only she... was the Imperator.<br />
<br />
''After Kokonoe regenerates his left arm, he heads to the Hierarchical City that was home to Ikaruga Federation to face his fate. With... Taokaka.<br />
<br />
''Overcoming the Boundary with help from Rachel, Ragna then falls through the fabric of time, landing in the Dark War. There, he meets Celica, Nine, and Mitsuyoshi, who will one day become Jubei. In Celica's stead, Ragna becomes the turning point of the Dark War - halting the Black Beast's movement for an entire year, giving mankind a fighting chance.<br />
<br />
''Fast forward to the present, and Ragna saves ν from the Gigant: Take-Mikazuchi. Nevertheless, the Black Beast's power is unleashed when in the course of battle with the Imperator, ν's sword pierces its body...'' <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Library Mode, Character #001</ref><br />
<br />
===Bloodedge===<br />
<br />
''The man who is responsible for stopping the Black Beast's activity for one year during the Dark War. His signature piece is the red jacket and massive white blade he wields.<br />
<br />
''His identity? Is none other than Ragna himself, sent back to the past by Rachel.<br />
<br />
''Those items are left with the sister upon his departure, and is passed onto Ragna, when he completes his training with Jubei.'' <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Library Mode, Character #035</ref><br />

<br />
==Early Life==<br />
<br />
Thirteen years before the Embryo Incident, Ripper was a sadistic serial killer. He was captured by the police and was being transported. Suddenly, Ripper developed his Drive and killed all but one of the police guarding him and escaped the van. He then broke into Yuki Himezuru’s house and killed her parents. As he was about to kill Yuki, Kazuto Kotetsu, the one cop who survived, arrived and shot him, saving Yuki. However, Ripper survived the bullet wound and managed to escape.<br />
<br />
==Embryo Incident==<br />
===Code: Embryo, Lost: Memories===<br />
<br />
Ripper was first seen digging through the corpse of a Union until he found their crystal and ate it. <ref>''XBlaze Code: Embryo, Episode 1''</ref><br />
<br />
Two days laterm, he broke Drei’s barrier and brutally killed Akio Osafune, eating his crystal. Realizing Ripper was in phase zero, Drei requested that he “release the Grimoire.” Ripper refused to do so unless it was interesting and called out to speak to Sechs instead of Drei.<br />
<br />
The next night, Ripper attacked Touya Kagari, Es and Mei Amanohokosaka. After throwing a knife and a smoke bomb, he appeared behind Touya, asking about the Grimoire but was knocked away by Es. He was pursued by Es, who followed him into a building. He threw a Molotov Cocktail at her but was interrupted by Avenge. Once Touya and Mei arrived Ripper decided it had gotten boring and escaped. <ref>''XBlaze Code: Embryo, Episode 4''</ref><br />
<br />
The evening after Akira Kamewari ripped his crystal out of his body, Ripper kidnapped Hinata, knocking her unconscious and chaining her over the edge of a roof. He then called Touya with Hinata’s phone and told him about it. Touya asked if this had something to do with the Grimoire but Ripper said he forgot he was asked about that, only doing this because he found Touya interesting. Ripper told Touya he had to find them before sundown or he’d kill Hinata and hung up. After Touya ran into Kuon, he received another call from Ripper, who said he was tired of waiting and activated his Drive so Touya could follow the Discover Call to him. With the help of Kuon’s magic, Touya reached Ripper and Hinata. Touya begged Ripper to let Hinata go but Ripper just made fun of him. Ripper told Touya that he had a strange “odor” similar to his own and Sechs’s and he wanted to find out why that was for fun. In order to make Touya unleash his power, Ripper told him that he was the one who murdered Yuki’s parents. When that didn’t work Ripper cut the chain holding Hinata, leaving her to fall to her death. Touya went berserk, unleashing the power of the Origin of the Grimoire, which stole the seithr from Ripper’s body, causing him to run off saying it was not fun anymore. A heavily weakened Ripper escaped to the sewers, where he was found by Avenge, who attacked him. Ripper claimed that he surrendered but tried to attack Avenge when he approached. However, Avenge saw this coming and countered his attack before killing Ripper. <ref>''XBlaze Code: Embryo, Es & Hinata Route Episode 8''</ref><br />

<div>[[File:BlazBlue_Calamity_Trigger_Hakumen_Arcade_02.png|400px|thumb|right|Black Beast and Six Heroes]]<br />
The '''Dark War''' (暗黒大戦 ''Ankoku Taisen''), also known as the '''First War of [[Ars Magus]]''' (第一次魔道対戦 ''Daiichiji Madō Taisen''), was a world-wide conflict in which humanity, [[vampire|vampires]], [[beastkin]], [[Demi-Human|demi-humans]], and [[Kaka]] fought against the [[Black Beast]]. It started on January 1st, 2100AD and ended 10 years later on January 1st, 2110.<br />
<br />
The brutality of the Dark War led to the death of over half the world's population as well as the development of Ars Magus and the [[Hierarchical City|Hierarchical Cities]]. Scars left from the war are still felt across the world even 90 years after its conclusion.<br />
<br />
==Information==<br />
Several events prelude the beginning of the Dark War. Scientists [[Relius Clover]] and [[Shuichiro Ayatsuki]] partnered together with [[Yuuki Terumi]] to develop a [[Kusanagi]] which was to be used to kill [[The Origin]] and the [[Amaterasu Unit]]. During this time, Shuichiro developed the [[Kushinada's Lynchpin]] should their experiment fail. On December 31st, 2099AD, the experiment failed and a Black Beast was born instead within the [[First District]] - it killed Terumi's current host, devoured Relius, and grievously injured Shuichiro before escaping to the outside world. This is what the scientists and the world at the time believed. In reality, the Black Beast was actually a fused [[Nu-13]] and [[Ragna the Bloodedge]] that were sent back in time from December 31st, 2199AD to just before the [[Looping World]] begun. <br />
<br />
The Black Beast's first recorded appearance was in Kantō, Japan, and it annihilated the country's population. The United Nations held an international summit meeting shortly afterwards and concluded that the only solution that they knew was to obliterate the country using a '''{{h|nuclear attack}}'''.<ref>''BlazBlue: Phase 0, Prologue''</ref> These attacks failed to even scratch the Beast's hide and it went on to spread across the world. Before the nuclear strikes, some of the population was evacuated, including a tribe of cat-type beastkin that included [[Jubei]], [[Tomonori]], and Munefuyu. Jubei later allowed an unknown country to use his genes to develop the Kaka in an attempt to combat the Beast - the country was one of Beast's many victims. <br />
<br />
The [[Magister's City of Ishana]] was untouched by the Beast since no [[seithr]] entered the city's atmosphere. A woman called Konoe Mercury, the oldest daughter of Shuichiro, was appointed [[Nine the Phantom]] of the [[Ten Sages]]; she held absolute authority over matters concerning the Black Beast and Dark War in Ishana. [[Clavis Alucard]], the head of the [[Alucard Clan]] was aware of a student in Ishana called [[Kazuma Kval]], who was designed as a vessel for Terumi. The failures of Nine, Clavis, Tomonori, and Clavis' butler [[Valkenhayn R. Hellsing]] led to the resurrection of Terumi in 2106AD.<ref>''BlazBlue: Phase Shift 1, Chapter 6 - Night of Black Betrayal''</ref><br />
<br />
[[Celica A. Mercury]], the youngest daughter of Shuichiro, ventured to Japan to find her father in 2106AD. In February of 2200, [[Rachel Alucard]] sent Ragna back in time to the Dark War where he lost his memories and met Celica.<ref>''BlazBlue: Phase 0, Chapter 1 - Lost White''</ref> The two, alongside Jubei, Nine, and [[Trinity Glassfille]], found the First District and watched Shuichiro die after introducing them to the Kushinada's Lynchpin. The group refused to use it since it required Celica's sacrifice, and they were attacked by the Black Beast itself. Ragna threw himself into the Beast and managed to stall it for one year as he fought against a version of Nu that resided within it. It was around this time that Clavis passed away, making Rachel the new head of the Alucard Clan.<ref>''BlazBlue: Phase 0, Chapter 6 - Promised Azure''</ref><br />
<br />
Humanity and the world were given one year to find a way to develop something that could combat the Black Beast and end the war. Nine had already begun development on the fusion of [[magic]] and science before the war, and focused her efforts.<br />
<br />
When the Black Beast was defeated, it began to deflate, becoming the size and shape of a man - it was the Ragna that had become the Beast after being sent back in time. Hakumen personally saw to the death of the Beast, walking up to it and decapitating it with [[Interfectum Malus: Ookami]].<ref>''[[Innocent Black]]''</ref><br />
<br />
==Aftermath==<br />
[[File:BlazBlue_Central_Fiction_Story_Mode_37(A).png|thumb|left|250px|Dogs were one species mutated by seithr]]<br />
The seithr that was dispersed from the Black Beast's body flooded the entire world, suffocating areas in a lower altitude. Flora and fauna caught in the seithr were either killed or mutated; the immediate aftermath of the Dark War was arguably as destructive as the war itself. The Earth's ecosystem was destroyed, giving birth to new and never before seen creatures. The OLN merged with the [[Mage's Guild]] to become the [[Novus Orbis Librarium]], which established the [[vigilante]] system. Vigilantes were used to help secure the deadly world for the remnants of society.<ref>''BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger, Teach Me, Miss Litchi! Episode 3 - The Shorty and the Hard Guy''</ref><br />
<br />
Almost immediately following the aftermath of the war, Celica became a nun. Jubei and Nine erected [[Celica A. Mercury's Church]] over the site where the Black Beast died. Nine and Jubei were later married in the church and had a child together - [[Kokonoe]]. A short time later, Nine realised the truth of Looping World and the [[Prime Field War]], so she began the creation on the 11th [[Nox Nyctores]], the [[Corpus Sepulcro: Requiem]]. Terumi later destroyed Nine's happiness as Kazuma convinced Trinity to unbind the Mind Eater that had been applied on them. Terumi threw Nine into the [[Boundary]], citing her as knowing too much, and then threw Trinity in after her; Trinity, however, sealed her soul into [[Arma Reboare: Muchourin]] before her body's demise.<br />
<br />
[[File:BlazBlue Calamity Trigger Ragna the Bloodedge Story Mode 04.png|250px|thumb|right|Hierarchical Cities were constructed]]<br />
Both Jubei and Hakumen later fought against Terumi. Hakumen sacrificed himself to drag Terumi into the Boundary, killing Kazuma, and leaving Jubei and Valkenhayn as the only surviving members of the [[Six Heroes]]. Valkenhayn left society to tend to the [[Alucard Castle]] as Rachel went into a deep slumber, but remained in contact with Jubei.<ref>''[[Scarlett Rose]]''</ref><br />
<br />
Humanity, beastkin, and demi-humans moved onto the mountaintops of the world where the seithr had not settled. Using the basis of Ishana and Ars Magus, society created the [[Hierarchical City|Hierarchical Cities]], large NOL-governed cities with artificial environments designed for the remaining civilization to flourish. Some cities also survived the war, such as Shanghai<ref>''Litchi Faye-Ling Official Profile''</ref>, while other cities were created far from the NOL's grasp. Before having been thrown into the Boundary, Nine had released the cores of some of the Nox Nyctores, sealing [[Deus Machina: Nirvana]] underneath the [[4th Hierarchical City of Naobi]].<br />
<br />
Society greatly changed after the war. Although beastkin and demi-humans were accepted into human society, they were treated as less than second-class citizens - combined with a growing number of people who struggled to use Ars Magus over those who could, the new society ruled over by the NOL and their strict governing over [[Grimoire|Grimoires]] led to a growing friction between commoners and officials.<br />
<br />
Over time, certain parts of the world before the Dark War were forgotten. The United Nations, Japan, and nuclear weapons were largely forgotten by a society that came to heavily rely on Ars Magus. This led to the birth of [[Sector Seven]] as they remained true to science. The Kaka were also forgotten largely by society, being dumped into the bottom of the [[13th Hierarchical City of Kagutsuchi]]. [[Sorcery]], magic, the Mage's Guild, and the Ten Sages were also forgotten by society, and very few could use the two aforementioned arts; the availability of [[alchemy]], however, is debatable.<br />

<div>[[File:BlazBlue_Calamity_Trigger_Hakumen_Arcade_02.png|400px|thumb|right|Black Beast and Six Heroes]]<br />
The '''Dark War''' (暗黒大戦 ''Ankoku Taisen''), also known as the '''First War of [[Ars Magus]]''' (第一次魔道対戦 ''Daiichiji Madō Taisen''), was a world-wide conflict in which humanity, [[vampire|vampires]], [[beastkin]], [[Demi-Human|demi-humans]], and [[Kaka]] fought against the [[Black Beast]]. It started on January 1st, 2100AD and ended 10 years later on January 1st, 2110.<br />
<br />
The brutality of the Dark War led to the death of over half the world's population as well as the development of Ars Magus and the [[Hierarchical City|Hierarchical Cities]]. Scars left from the war are still felt across the world even 90 years after its conclusion.<br />
<br />
==Information==<br />
Several events prelude the beginning of the Dark War. Scientists [[Relius Clover]] and [[Shuichiro Ayatsuki]] partnered together with [[Yuuki Terumi]] to develop a [[Kusanagi]] which was to be used to kill [[The Origin]] and the [[Amaterasu Unit]]. During this time, Shuichiro developed the [[Kushinada's Lynchpin]] should their experiment fail. On December 31st, 2099AD, the experiment failed and a Black Beast was born instead within the [[First District]] - it killed Terumi's current host, devoured Relius, and grievously injured Shuichiro before escaping to the outside world. This is what the scientists and the world at the time believed. In reality, the Black Beast was actually a fused [[Nu-13]] and [[Ragna the Bloodedge]] that were sent back in time from December 31st, 2199AD to just before the [[Looping World]] begun. <br />
<br />
The Black Beast's first recorded appearance was in Kantō, Japan, and it annihilated the country's population. The United Nations held an international summit meeting shortly afterwards and concluded that the only solution that they knew was to obliterate the country using a '''{{h|nuclear attack}}'''.<ref>''BlazBlue: Phase 0, Prologue''</ref> These attacks failed to even scratch the Beast's hide and it went on to spread across the world.

[[Clavis Alucard]], the head of the [[Alucard Clan]] was aware of a student in Ishana called [[Kazuma Kval]], who was designed as a vessel for Terumi. The failures of Nine, Clavis, Tomonori, and Clavis' butler [[Valkenhayn R. Hellsing]] led to the resurrection of Terumi in 2106AD.<ref>''BlazBlue: Phase Shift 1, Chapter 6 - Night of Black Betrayal''</ref><br />
<br />
[[Celica A. Mercury]], the youngest daughter of Shuichiro, ventured to Japan to find her father in 2106AD. In February of 2200, [[Rachel Alucard]] sent Ragna back in time to the Dark War where he lost his memories and met Celica.<ref>''BlazBlue: Phase 0, Chapter 1 - Lost White''</ref> The two, alongside Jubei, Nine, and [[Trinity Glassfille]], found the First District and watched Shuichiro die after introducing them to the Kushinada's Lynchpin. The group refused to use it since it required Celica's sacrifice, and they were attacked by the Black Beast itself. Ragna threw himself into the Beast and managed to stall it for one year as he fought against a version of Nu that resided within it. It was around this time that Clavis passed away, making Rachel the new head of the Alucard Clan.<ref>''BlazBlue: Phase 0, Chapter 6 - Promised Azure''</ref><br />
<br />
Humanity and the world were given one year to find a way to develop something that could combat the Black Beast and end the war. Nine had already begun development on the fusion of [[magic]] and science before the war, and focused her efforts.<br />
<br />
When the Black Beast was defeated, it began to deflate, becoming the size and shape of a man - it was the Ragna that had become the Beast after being sent back in time. Hakumen personally saw to the death of the Beast, walking up to it and decapitating it with [[Interfectum Malus: Ookami]].<ref>''[[Innocent Black]]''</ref><br />
<br />
==Aftermath==<br />
[[File:BlazBlue_Central_Fiction_Story_Mode_37(A).png|thumb|left|250px|Dogs were one species mutated by seithr]]<br />
The seithr that was dispersed from the Black Beast's body flooded the entire world, suffocating areas in a lower altitude. Flora and fauna caught in the seithr were either killed or mutated; the immediate aftermath of the Dark War was arguably as destructive as the war itself. The Earth's ecosystem was destroyed, giving birth to new and never before seen creatures. The OLN merged with the Mage's Guild to become the [[Novus Orbis Librarium]], which established the [[vigilante]] system. Vigilantes were used to help secure the deadly world for the remnants of society.<ref>''BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger, Teach Me, Miss Litchi! Episode 3 - The Shorty and the Hard Guy''</ref><br />
<br />
Almost immediately following the aftermath of the war, Celica became a nun. Jubei and Nine erected [[Celica A. Mercury's Church]] over the site where the Black Beast died. Nine and Jubei were later married in the church and had a child together - [[Kokonoe]]. A short time later, Nine realised the truth of Looping World and the [[Prime Field War]], so she began the creation on the 11th [[Nox Nyctores]], the [[Corpus Sepulcro: Requiem]]. Terumi later destroyed Nine's happiness as Kazuma convinced Trinity to unbind the Mind Eater that had been applied on them. Terumi threw Nine into the [[Boundary]], citing her as knowing too much, and then threw Trinity in after her; Trinity, however, sealed her soul into [[Arma Reboare: Muchourin]] before her body's demise.<br />
<br />
[[File:BlazBlue Calamity Trigger Ragna the Bloodedge Story Mode 04.png|250px|thumb|right|Hierarchical Cities were constructed]]<br />
Both Jubei and Hakumen later fought against Terumi. Hakumen sacrificed himself to drag Terumi into the Boundary, killing Kazuma, and leaving Jubei and Valkenhayn as the only surviving members of the [[Six Heroes]]. Valkenhayn left society to tend to the [[Alucard Castle]] as Rachel went into a deep slumber, but remained in contact with Jubei.<ref>''[[Scarlett Rose]]''</ref><br />
<br />
Humanity, beastkin, and demi-humans moved onto the mountaintops of the world where the seithr had not settled. Using the basis of Ishana and Ars Magus, society created the [[Hierarchical City|Hierarchical Cities]], large NOL-governed cities with artificial environments designed for the remaining civilization to flourish. Other cities also survived the war, such as Shanghai<ref>''Litchi Faye-Ling Official Profile''</ref>, while others created cities far from the NOL's grasp. Before having been thrown into the Boundary, Nine had released the cores of some of the Nox Nyctores, sealing Nirvana underneath the [[4th Hierarchical City of Naobi]].<br />
<br />
Society greatly changed after the war. Although beastkin and demi-humans were accepted into human society, they were treated as less than second-class citizens - combined with a growing use of people who struggled to use Ars Magus over those who could, the new society ruled over by the NOL and their strict governing over Grimoires led to a growing friction between commoners and officials.<br />
<br />
Over time, certain parts of the world before the Dark War were forgotten. The United Nations, Japan, and nuclear weapons were largely forgotten by a society that came to heavily rely on Ars Magus. This led to the birth of [[Sector Seven]] as they remained true to science. The Kaka were also forgotten largely by society, being dumped into the bottom of the [[13th Hierarchical City of Kagutsuchi]]. Sorcery, magic, the Mage's Guild, and the Ten Sages were also forgotten by society, and very few could use the two aforementioned arts; the availability of alchemy, however, is debatable.<br />

<div>[[File:BlazBlue_Calamity_Trigger_Hakumen_Arcade_02.png|400px|thumb|right|Black Beast and Six Heroes]]<br />
The '''Dark War''' (暗黒大戦 ''Ankoku Taisen''), also known as the '''First War of [[Ars Magus]]''' (第一次魔道対戦 ''Daiichiji Madō Taisen''), was a world-wide conflict in which humanity, [[vampire|vampires]], [[beastkin]], [[Demi-Human|demi-humans]], and [[Kaka]] fought against the [[Black Beast]]. It started on January 1st, 2100AD and ended 10 years later on January 1st, 2110.<br />
<br />
The brutality of the Dark War led to the death of over half the world's population as well as the development of Ars Magus and the [[Hierarchical City|Hierarchical Cities]]. Scars left from the war are still felt across the world even 90 years after its conclusion.<br />
<br />
==Information==<br />
Several events prelude the beginning of the Dark War. Scientists [[Relius Clover]] and [[Shuichiro Ayatsuki]] partnered together with [[Yuuki Terumi]] to develop a [[Kusanagi]] which was to be used to kill [[The Origin]] and the [[Amaterasu Unit]]. During this time, Shuichiro developed the [[Kushinada's Lynchpin]] should their experiment fail. On December 31st, 2099AD, the experiment failed and a Black Beast was born instead within the [[First District]] - it killed Terumi's current host, devoured Relius, and grievously injured Shuichiro before escaping to the outside world. This is what the scientists and the world at the time believed. In reality, the Black Beast was actually a fused [[Nu-13]] and [[Ragna the Bloodedge]] that were sent back in time from December 31st, 2199AD to just before the [[Looping World]] begun. <br />
<br />
The Black Beast's first recorded appearance was in Kantō, Japan, and it annihilated the country's population. The United Nations held an international summit meeting shortly afterwards and concluded that the only solution that they knew was to obliterate the country using a '''{{h|nuclear attack}}'''.<ref>''BlazBlue: Phase 0, Prologue''</ref> These attacks failed to even scratch the Beast's hide and it went on to spread across the world. Before the nuclear strikes, some of the population was evacuated, including a tribe of cat-type beastkin that included [[Jubei]], [[Tomonori]], and Munefuyu. Jubei later allowed an unknown country to use his genes to develop the Kaka in an attempt to combat the Beast - the country was one of Beast's many victims. <br />
<br />
The [[Magister's City of Ishana]] was untouched by the Beast since no [[seithr]] entered the city's atmosphere.

In February of 2200, [[Rachel Alucard]] sent Ragna back in time to the Dark War where he lost his memories and met Celica.<ref>''BlazBlue: Phase 0, Chapter 1 - Lost White''</ref> The two, alongside Jubei, Nine, and [[Trinity Glassfille]], found the First District and watched Shuichiro die after introducing them to the Kushinada's Lynchpin. The group refused to use it since it required Celica's sacrifice, and they were attacked by the Black Beast itself. Ragna threw himself into the Beast and managed to stall it for one year as he fought against a version of Nu that resided within it. It was around this time that Clavis passed away, making Rachel the new head of the Alucard Clan.<ref>''BlazBlue: Phase 0, Chapter 6 - Promised Azure''</ref><br />
<br />
Humanity and the world were given one year to find a way to develop something that could combat the Black Beast and end the war. Nine had already begun development on the fusion of [[magic]] and science before the war, and focused her efforts.<br />
<br />
When the Black Beast was defeated, it began to deflate, becoming the size and shape of a man - it was the Ragna that had become the Beast after being sent back in time. Hakumen personally saw to the death of the Beast, walking up to it and decapitating it with Ookami.<ref>''[[Innocent Black]]''</ref><br />

==Aftermath==<br />
[[File:BlazBlue_Central_Fiction_Story_Mode_37(A).png|thumb|left|250px|Dogs were one species mutated by seithr]]<br />
The seithr that was dispersed from the Black Beast's body flooded the entire world, suffocating areas in a lower altitude. Flora and fauna caught in the seithr were either killed or mutated; the immediate aftermath of the Dark War was arguably as destructive as the war itself. The Earth's ecosystem was destroyed, giving birth to new and never before seen creatures. The OLN merged with the Mage's Guild to become the [[Novus Orbis Librarium]], which established the [[vigilante]] system. Vigilantes were used to help secure the deadly world for the remnants of society.<ref>''BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger, Teach Me, Miss Litchi! Episode 3 - The Shorty and the Hard Guy''</ref><br />
<br />
Almost immediately following the aftermath of the war, Celica became a nun. Jubei and Nine erected [[Celica A. Mercury's Church]] over the site where the Black Beast died. Nine and Jubei were later married in the church and had a child together - [[Kokonoe]]. A short time later, Nine realised the truth of Looping World and the [[Prime Field War]], so she began the creation on the 11th [[Nox Nyctores]], the [[Corpus Sepulcro: Requiem]]. Terumi later destroyed Nine's happiness as Kazuma convinced Trinity to unbind the Mind Eater that had been applied on them. Terumi threw Nine into the [[Boundary]], citing her as knowing too much, and then threw Trinity in after her; Trinity, however, sealed her soul into Muchourin before her body's demise.<br />
<br />
[[File:BlazBlue Calamity Trigger Ragna the Bloodedge Story Mode 04.png|250px|thumb|right|Hierarchical Cities were constructed]]<br />
Both Jubei and Hakumen later fought against Terumi. Hakumen sacrificed himself to drag Terumi into the Boundary, killing Kazuma, and leaving Jubei and Valkenhayn as the only surviving members of the Six Heroes. Valkenhayn left society to tend to the Alucard Castle as Rachel went into a deep slumber, but remained in contact with Jubei.<ref>''[[Scarlett Rose]]''</ref><br />
<br />
Humanity, beastkin, and demi-humans moved onto the mountaintops of the world where the seithr had not settled. Using the basis of Ishana and Ars Magus, society created the [[Hierarchical City|Hierarchical Cities]], large NOL-governed cities with artificial environments designed for the remaining civilization to flourish. Other cities also survived the war, such as Shanghai<ref>''Litchi Faye-Ling Official Profile''</ref>, while others created cities far from the NOL's grasp. Before having been thrown into the Boundary, Nine had released the cores of some of the Nox Nyctores, sealing Nirvana underneath the [[4th Hierarchical City of Naobi]].<br />
<br />
Society greatly changed after the war. Although beastkin and demi-humans were accepted into human society, they were treated as less than second-class citizens - combined with a growing use of people who struggled to use Ars Magus over those who could, the new society ruled over by the NOL and their strict governing over Grimoires led to a growing friction between commoners and officials.<br />
<br />
Over time, certain parts of the world before the Dark War were forgotten. The United Nations, Japan, and nuclear weapons were largely forgotten by a society that came to heavily rely on Ars Magus. This led to the birth of [[Sector Seven]] as they remained true to science. The Kaka were also forgotten largely by society, being dumped into the bottom of the [[13th Hierarchical City of Kagutsuchi]]. Sorcery, magic, the Mage's Guild, and the Ten Sages were also forgotten by society, and very few could use the two aforementioned arts; the availability of alchemy, however, is debatable.<br />

<div>[[File:BlazBlue_Calamity_Trigger_Hakumen_Arcade_02.png|400px|thumb|right|Black Beast and Six Heroes]]<br />
The '''Dark War''' (暗黒大戦 ''Ankoku Taisen''), also known as the '''First War of [[Ars Magus]]''' (第一次魔道対戦 ''Daiichiji Madō Taisen''), was a world-wide conflict in which humanity, [[vampire|vampires]], [[beastkin]], [[Demi-Human|demi-humans]], and [[Kaka]] fought against the [[Black Beast]]. It started on January 1st, 2100AD and ended 10 years later on January 1st, 2110.<br />
<br />
The brutality of the Dark War led to the death of over half the world's population as well as the development of Ars Magus and the [[Hierarchical City|Hierarchical Cities]]. Scars left from the war are still felt across the world even 90 years after its conclusion.<br />
<br />
==Information==<br />
Several events prelude the beginning of the Dark War. Scientists [[Relius Clover]] and [[Shuichiro Ayatsuki]] partnered together with [[Yuuki Terumi]] to develop a [[Kusanagi]] which was to be used to kill [[The Origin]] and the [[Amaterasu Unit]]. During this time, Shuichiro developed the [[Kushinada's Lynchpin]] should their experiment fail. On December 31st, 2099AD, the experiment failed and a Black Beast was born instead within the [[First District]] - it killed Terumi's current host, devoured Relius, and grievously injured Shuichiro before escaping to the outside world. This is what the scientists and the world at the time believed. In reality, the Black Beast was actually a fused [[Nu-13]] and [[Ragna the Bloodedge]] that were sent back in time from December 31st, 2199AD to just before the [[Looping World]] begun. <br />
<br />
The Black Beast's first recorded appearance was in Kantō, Japan, and it annihilated the country's population. The United Nations held an international summit meeting shortly afterwards and concluded that the only solution that they knew was to obliterate the country using a '''{{h|nuclear attack}}'''.<ref>''BlazBlue: Phase 0, Prologue''</ref> These attacks failed to even scratch the Beast's hide and it went on to spread across the world. Before the nuclear strikes, some of the population was evacuated, including a tribe of cat-type beastkin that included [[Jubei]], [[Tomonori]], and Munefuyu. Jubei later allowed an unknown country to use his genes to develop the Kaka in an attempt to combat the Beast - the country was one of Beast's many victims. <br />
<br />
The [[Magister's City of Ishana]] was untouched by the Beast since no [[seithr]] entered the city's atmosphere. A woman called Konoe Mercury, the oldest daughter of Shuichiro, was appointed [[Nine the Phantom]] of the [[Ten Sages]]; she held absolute authority over matters concerning the Black Beast and Dark War in Ishana. [[Clavis Alucard]], the head of the [[Alucard Clan]] was aware of a student in Ishana called [[Kazuma Kval]], who was designed as a vessel for Terumi. The failures of Nine, Clavis, Tomonori, and Clavis' butler [[Valkenhayn R. Hellsing]] led to the resurrection of Terumi in 2106AD.<ref>''BlazBlue: Phase Shift 1, Chapter 6 - Night of Black Betrayal''</ref><br />

==Aftermath==<br />
[[File:BlazBlue_Central_Fiction_Story_Mode_37(A).png|thumb|left|250px|Dogs were one species mutated by seithr]]<br />
The seithr that was dispersed from the Black Beast's body flooded the entire world, suffocating areas in a lower altitude. Flora and fauna caught in the seithr were either killed or mutated; the immediate aftermath of the Dark War was arguably as destructive as the war itself. The Earth's ecosystem was destroyed, giving birth to new and never seen before creatures. The OLN merged with the Mage's Guild to become the [[Novus Orbis Librarium]], which established the [[vigilante]] system. Vigilantes were used to help secure the deadly world for the remnants of society.<ref>''BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger, Teach Me, Miss Litchi! Episode 3 - The Shorty and the Hard Guy''</ref><br />
<br />
Almost immediately following the aftermath of the war, Celica became a nun. Jubei and Nine erected [[Celica A. Mercury's Church]] over the site where the Black Beast died. Nine and Jubei were later married and the church and had a child together - [[Kokonoe]]. A short time later, Nine realised the truth of Looping World and the [[Prime Field War]], so begun creation on the 11th Nox Nyctores, the [[Corpus Sepulcro: Requiem]]. Terumi later destroyed this happiness as Kazuma convinced Trinity to unbind the Mind Eater that had been applied on them. Terumi threw Nine into the Boundary, citing her as knowing too much, and then threw Trinity in after her; Trinity, however, sealed her soul into Muchourin before her body's demise.<br />
<br />
[[File:BlazBlue Calamity Trigger Ragna the Bloodedge Story Mode 04.png|250px|thumb|right|Hierarchical Cities were constructed]]<br />
Both Jubei and Hakumen later fought against Terumi. Hakumen sacrificed himself to drag Terumi into the Boundary, killing Kazuma, and leaving Jubei and Valkenhayn as the only surviving members of the Six Heroes. Valkenhayn left society to tend to the Alucard Castle as Rachel went into a deep slumber, but remained in contact with Jubei.<ref>''[[Scarlett Rose]]''</ref><br />
<br />
Humanity, beastkin, and demi-humans moved onto the mountaintops of the world where the seithr had not settled. Using the basis of Ishana and Ars Magus, society created the [[Hierarchical City|Hierarchical Cities]], large NOL-governed cities with artificial environments designed for the remaining civilization to flourish. Other cities also survived the war, such as Shanghai<ref>''Litchi Faye-Ling Official Profile''</ref>, while others created cities far from the NOL's grasp. Before having been thrown into the Boundary, Nine had released the cores of some of the Nox Nyctores, sealing Nirvana underneath the [[4th Hierarchical City of Naobi]].<br />
<br />
Society greatly changed after the war. Although beastkin and demi-humans were accepted into human society, they were treated as less than second-class citizens - combined with a growing use of people who struggled to use Ars Magus over those who could, the new society ruled over by the NOL and their strict governing over Grimoires led to a growing friction between commoners and officials.<br />
<br />
Over time, certain parts of the world before the Dark War were forgotten. The United Nations, Japan, and nuclear weapons were largely forgotten by a society that came to heavily rely on Ars Magus. This led to the birth of [[Sector Seven]] as they remained true to science. The Kaka were also forgotten largely by society, being dumped into the bottom of the [[13th Hierarchical City of Kagutsuchi]]. Sorcery, magic, the Mage's Guild, and the Ten Sages were also forgotten by society, and very few could use the two aforementioned arts; the availability of alchemy, however, is debatable.<br />

<div>[[File:BlazBlue_Calamity_Trigger_Hakumen_Arcade_02.png|400px|thumb|right|Black Beast and Six Heroes]]<br />
The '''Dark War''' (暗黒大戦 ''Ankoku Taisen''), also known as the '''First War of [[Ars Magus]]''' (第一次魔道対戦 ''Daiichiji Madō Taisen''), was a world-wide conflict in which humanity, [[vampire|vampires]], [[beastkin]], [[Demi-Human|demi-humans]], and [[Kaka]] fought against the [[Black Beast]]. It started on January 1st, 2100AD and ended 10 years later on January 1st, 2110.<br />
<br />
The brutality of the Dark War led to the death of over half the world's population as well as the development of Ars Magus and the [[Hierarchical City|Hierarchical Cities]]. Scars left from the war are still felt across the world even 90 years after its conclusion.<br />
<br />
==Information==<br />
Several events prelude the beginning of the Dark War. Scientists [[Relius Clover]] and [[Shuichiro Ayatsuki]] partnered together with [[Yuuki Terumi]] to develop a [[Kusanagi]] which was to be used to kill [[The Origin]] and the [[Amaterasu Unit]]. During this time, Shuichiro developed the [[Kushinada's Lynchpin]] should their experiment fail. On December 31st, 2099AD, the experiment failed and a Black Beast was born instead within the [[First District]] - it killed Terumi's current host, devoured Relius, and grievously injured Shuichiro before escaping to the outside world. This is what the scientists and the world at the time believed. In reality, the Black Beast was actually a fused [[Nu-13]] and [[Ragna the Bloodedge]] that were sent back in time from December 31st, 2199AD to just before the [[Looping World]] begun. <br />
<br />
The Black Beast's first recorded appearance was in Kantō, Japan, and it annihilated the country's population. The United Nations held an international summit meeting shortly afterwards and concluded that the only solution that they knew was to obliterate the country using a '''{{h|nuclear attack}}'''.<ref>''BlazBlue: Phase 0, Prologue''</ref> These attacks failed to even scratch the Beast's hide and it went on to spread across the world. Before the nuclear strikes, some of the population was evacuated, including a tribe of cat-type beastkin that included [[Jubei]], [[Tomonori]], and Munefuyu. Jubei later allowed an unknown country to use his genes to develop the Kaka in an attempt to combat the Beast - the country was one of Beast's many victims. <br />
<br />
The [[Magister's City of Ishana]] was untouched by the Beast since no [[seithr]] entered the city's atmosphere. A woman called Konoe Mercury, the oldest daughter of Shuichiro, was appointed [[Nine the Phantom]] of the [[Ten Sages]]; she held absolute authority over matters concerning the Black Beast and Dark War in Ishana. [[Clavis Alucard]], the head of the [[Alucard Clan]] was aware of a student in Ishana called [[Kazuma Kval]], who was designed as a vessel for Terumi. The failures of Nine, Clavis, Tomonori, and Clavis' butler [[Valkenhayn R. Hellsing]] led to the resurrection of Terumi in 2106AD.<ref>''BlazBlue: Phase Shift 1, Chapter 6 - Night of Black Betrayal''</ref><br />
<br />
[[Celica A. Mercury]], the youngest daughter of Shuichiro, ventured to Japan to find her father in 2106AD. In February of 2200, [[Rachel Alucard]] sent Ragna back in time to the Dark War where he lost his memories and met Celica.<ref>''BlazBlue: Phase 0, Chapter 1 - Lost White''</ref> The two, alongside Jubei, Nine, and [[Trinity Glassfille]], found the First District and watched Shuichiro die after introducing them to the Kushinada's Lynchpin. The group refused to use it since it required Celica's sacrifice, and they were attacked by the Black Beast itself. Ragna threw himself into the Beast and managed to stall it for one year as he fought against a version of Nu that resided within it. It was around this time that Clavis passed away, making Rachel the new head of the Alucard Clan.<ref>''BlazBlue: Phase 0, Chapter 6 - Promised Azure''</ref><br />
<br />
Humanity and the world were given one year to find a way to develop something that could combat the Black Beast and end the war. Nine had already begun development on the fusion of [[magic]] and science before the war, and focused her efforts.<br />

A short time later, Nine realised the truth of Looping World and the [[Prime Field War]], so begun creation on the 11th Nox Nyctores, the [[Corpus Sepulcro: Requiem]]. Terumi later destroyed this happiness as Kazuma convinced Trinity to unbind the Mind Eater that had been applied on them. Terumi threw Nine into the Boundary, citing her as knowing too much, and then threw Trinity in after her; Trinity, however, sealed her soul into Muchourin before her body's demise.<br />
<br />
[[File:BlazBlue Calamity Trigger Ragna the Bloodedge Story Mode 04.png|250px|thumb|right|Hierarchical Cities were constructed]]<br />
Both Jubei and Hakumen later fought against Terumi. Hakumen sacrificed himself to drag Terumi into the Boundary, killing Kazuma, and leaving Jubei and Valkenhayn as the only surviving members of the Six Heroes. Valkenhayn left society to tend to the Alucard Castle as Rachel went into a deep slumber, but remained in contact with Jubei.<ref>''[[Scarlett Rose]]''</ref><br />
<br />
Humanity, beastkin, and demi-humans moved onto the mountaintops of the world where the seithr had not settled. Using the basis of Ishana and Ars Magus, society created the [[Hierarchical City|Hierarchical Cities]], large NOL-governed cities with artificial environments designed for the remaining civilization to flourish. Other cities also survived the war, such as Shanghai<ref>''Litchi Faye-Ling Official Profile''</ref>, while others created cities far from the NOL's grasp. Before having been thrown into the Boundary, Nine had released the cores of some of the Nox Nyctores, sealing Nirvana underneath the [[4th Hierarchical City of Naobi]].<br />
<br />
Society greatly changed after the war. Although beastkin and demi-humans were accepted into human society, they were treated as less than second-class citizens - combined with a growing use of people who struggled to use Ars Magus over those who could, the new society ruled over by the NOL and their strict governing over Grimoires led to a growing friction between commoners and officials.<br />
<br />
Over time, certain parts of the world before the Dark War were forgotten. The United Nations, Japan, and nuclear weapons were largely forgotten by a society that came to heavily rely on Ars Magus. This led to the birth of [[Sector Seven]] as they remained true to science. The Kaka were also forgotten largely by society, being dumped into the bottom of the [[13th Hierarchical City of Kagutsuchi]]. Sorcery, magic, the Mage's Guild, and the Ten Sages were also forgotten by society, and very few could use the two aforementioned arts; the availability of alchemy, however, is debatable.<br />

'''Ripper''', later known as '''Freaks''', is a serial killer who roams [[Shin Yokozaki City]]. An Irregular Strange Red [[Drive-Union]] with a thirst for wanton destruction, Ripper is responsible for numerous tragedies that have struck the city; he is nearly always chased by [[Avenge]].<br />
<br />
Ripper's [[Drive]] is {{h|Scissor Hands}}.<br />
<br />
==Appearance==<br />
A young man with dark purple hair with messy green streaks. Ripper has an angular face with eyes that always appear shut. His right eye is his [[Crystal]], which he keeps hidden under a medical eye patch. He is seen wearing a fuchsia hoodie lined with black fur along the hood, and there are numerous fluorescent green zips running across the hoodie both vertically and horizontally. He also wore black trousers with fuchsia strips on their sides, and fuchsia trainers. Ripper was always seen wearing a [[Brain Cat]] doll on a strap around his neck. <br />
<br />
When back in control of his body as Freaks, his hair was messy, and black with white streaks. His Crystal was exposed, and he wore a black hoodie with a purple interior that was covered in sky blue tape. On his chest and hands were deep scars in the shapes of crosses, and over his wrists were broken handcuffs. Over Freaks' neck was a small black choker with a green barcode dangling from it. He wore simple brown shoes, each with a brown 'x' near the mouth.<br />
<br />
Whenever Ripper uses his Drive, his fingers turn into large blades that can either be straight or curved.<br />
<br />
==Personality==<br />
Psychotic is the one word that can truly capture Ripper. He yearns for a constant sense of fun, which can only be achieved by him hunting down and causing mass murder wherever he goes. Ripper toys with his prey, mocking them with every breath, and will do anything to make them feel anguish before he finally kills them.<br />
<br />
His confidence borders hubris; Ripper knows that few can take him on and survive, and he revels in the pure power that being a Strange Red grants him. Becoming a Drive-Union has done little for Ripper's sanity, as he was already a criminal wanted for numerous murders prior to his condition. When pushed into a corner or met with something he did not anticipate, Ripper loses his mocking facade, and shows bloodthirsty rage to anyone in his path. He is unpredictable, callous, cruel, and eager to kill for the sake of his entertainment.<br />
<br />
==Powers and Techniques==<br />
Owing to his Drive, Ripper is a ruthless and deadly combatant. {{h|Scissor Hands}} allows him to turn his hands into sharp blades which are laced with [[seithr]], making any wound they inflict impossible for mages to heal with [[magic]]. He is fast, being able to slice [[Mei Amanohokosaka|Mei Amanohokosaka's]] Shikigami Raven in the blink of an eye. His speed and Drive make for a deadly combination, and his vast experience in both hunting and fighting his prey make him much stronger than his appearance would suggest.<br />
<br />
Speed and strength is not all that defines Ripper, however, as he is a cunning fighter who excels at aggravating his opponents into making the wrong move. Other than his Drive, Ripper also has numerous throwing knives and even smoke bombs to help him both fight at a distance and retreat when at a disadvantage.<br />
<br />
==Character Report==<br />
<br />
===Ripper===<br />

''A Union and SS-class fugitive wanted by the Mitsurugi Agency, Ripper was infected long before the Mitsurugi Agency.

An unrepentant serial killer, he has been on the run from the law for over ten years.He has the ability to "smell" other Unions. Revealed to be the one who killed Yuki Himezuru's parents.

===Ripper===<br />
<br />
''A Union and SS-class fugitive wanted by the Mitsurugi Agency. The Magic Guild wants him dead, and has outsourced his termination to a bounty hunter. Ripper was infected long before the Wadatsumi Incident and is considered an "irregular type". He has always loved to kill before his onset and maybe due to his abnormal personality, he has not been affected by the crystal. An unrepentant serial killer, he has been on the run from the law for over ten years. Both the Mitsurugi Agency and the Magic Guild have lost countless people trying to bring him down. In the events leading up to the Embryo incident, he kidnapped Hinata and tried to kill her, pushing Touya Kagari over the edge and forcing him to unleash the power of the Grimoire. Once that happened, Touya absorbed most of Ripper's powers. Though he managed to escape, he was eventually finished off by the bounty hunter Avenge. The Magic Guild later retrieved his body.'' <ref>''XBlaze Lost: Memories, TIPS, #50''</ref><br />
<br />
===Freaks===<br />

''A Union currently being hunted by Kuon and Elise. Considered wholly evil, he slaughtered the ruling members of the Magic Guild. Supposedly a result of Guild research, almost nothing is know about him.'' <ref>''XBlaze Lost: Memories, TIPS, #58''</ref><br />
<br />
==Trivia==<br />
*In the BlazBlue 10th Anniversary Character Poll, Ripper placed 60th out of the 84 candidates. He scored one place lower than fellow ''XBlaze'' cast member [[Ringo Akagi]], and one point above [[Karenjina Parsett]]. He had 38 votes.<br />

Owing to his Drive, Ripper is a ruthless and deadly combatant. {{h|Scissor Hands}} allows him to turn his hands into sharp blades which are laced with [[seithr]], making any wound they inflict impossible for mages to heal with [[magic]]. He is fast, being able to slice [[Mei Amanohokosaka|Mei Amanohokosaka's]] Shikigami Raven in the blink of an eye. His speed and Drive make for a deadly combination, and his vast experience in both hunting and fighting his prey make him much stronger than his appearance would suggest.<br />
<br />
Speed and strength is not all that defines Ripper, however, as he is a cunning fighter who excels at aggravating his opponents into making the wrong move. Other than his Drive, Ripper also has numerous throwing knives and even smoke bombs to help him both fight at a distance and retreat when at a disadvantage.<br />

<br />
===Ripper===<br />
<br />
''A Union and SS-class fugitive wanted by the Mitsurugi Agency, Ripper was infected long before the Mitsurugi Agency. He is also immune to his crystal's soul intervention, which has turned a shade of crimson due to his habit of eating the crystals of other Unions, earning him the nickname "Strange Red." An unrepentant serial killer, he has been on the run from the law for over ten years.He has the ability to "smell" other Unions. Revealed to be the one who killed Yuki Himezuru's parents. Eventually defeated by Avenge.'' <ref>''XBlaze Code: Embryo, Character Report''</ref><br />

==TIPS Entry==<br />
<br />
===Ripper===<br />
<br />
''A Union and SS-class fugitive wanted by the Mitsurugi Agency. The Magic Guild wants him dead, and has outsourced his termination to a bounty hunter. Ripper was infected long before the Wadatsumi Incident and is considered an "irregular type". He has always loved to kill before his onset and maybe due to his abnormal personality, he has not been affected by the crystal. An unrepentant serial killer, he has been on the run from the law for over ten years. Both the Mitsurugi Agency and the Magic Guild have lost countless people trying to bring him down. In the events leading up to the Embryo incident, he kidnapped Hinata and tried to kill her, pushing Touya Kagari over the edge and forcing him to unleash the power of the Grimoire. Once that happened, Touya absorbed most of Ripper's powers. Though he managed to escape, he was eventually finished off by the bounty hunter Avenge. The Magic Guild later retrieved his body.'' <ref>''XBlaze Lost: Memories, TIPS, #50''</ref><br />
<br />
==Trivia==<br />
*In the BlazBlue 10th Anniversary Character Poll, Ripper placed 60th out of the 84 candidates. He scored one place lower than fellow ''XBlaze'' cast member [[Ringo Akagi]], and one point above [[Karenjina Parsett]]. He had 38 votes.<br />

'''''BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle''''' is a game in the ''BlazBlue'' series planned for release sometime in 2018 for PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and Steam. It will be published by Arc System Works in Japan and by Arc System Works America in North America. The game combines four franchises: Arc System Works' ''[[BlazBlue (series)|BlazBlue]]'', Atlus' ''[[Wikia:c:megamitensei:Persona_4_Arena|Persona 4 Arena]]'', French Bread's ''[[Wikia:c:in-birth:UNDER_NIGHT_IN-BIRTH| Under Night In-Birth]]'', and Rooster Teeth's ''[[Wikia:c:rwby:RWBY| RWBY]]''.<br />
<br />
It was revealed at the main stage of Evo 2017. <ref>''Polygon, [https://www.polygon.com/2017/7/16/15979114/blazblue-cross-tag-battle-rwby-evo-2017 BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle announced at Evo 2017]''</ref><br />
<br />
==Information==<br />
''BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle'' does not take place in the main ''BlazBlue'' storyline, but is said to be a possibility. The main story will focus on the crossover of the four series, and ''[[Wikia:c:guilty-gear:Guilty_Gear|Guilty Gear]]'' characters will not be present. Futhermore, there will be no arcade version, and it will be a straight release to consoles. Mechanically, it will be different from ''BlazBlue''. <br />
<br />
==Development==<br />
At the time of the game's announcement, the "expected" or obvious characters had already been decided for the roster. The game was announced relatively early in its development cycle due to the developers wanting to hear the players' requests for characters.<ref>''Famitsu (JP), [https://www.famitsu.com/news/201708/08138078.html Interview with Toshimichi Mori (EVO 2017)]''</ref><br />
<br />
A playable build was first exhibited in October 2017 at four events worldwide: New York Comic Con (NYCC) in New York (Oct 5-8), South East Asia Major @ GameStart 2017 in Singapore (Oct 14-15), RTX London in London (Oct 14-15), and Arc Revolution Cup 2017 (Arc Revo) at Toushinsai in Tokyo (Oct 21).<ref>''Arc System Works (JP), [http://www.arcsystemworks.jp/portal/post-6462/ BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle's first playable demo will be available in four cities worldwide!]''</ref> Arc Revo's playable demo featured an updated build referred to as the "Toushinsai build" in the gameplay manual, which included the third introduction trailer's characters as playable except for Weiss.<ref>''Arc System Works (JP), [http://www.arcsystemworks.jp/portal/images/bbtag1019.pdf BBTAG Command List (Toushinsai Build)]''</ref> Following these events, Arc System Works put out a survey on ''BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle'''s official website in both English and Japanese requesting feedback from participants of any of the four events. It was available until Nov 8, 2017 at 8 am PST. <ref>''Twitter, BlazBlue Official (@BLAZBLUE_PR), [https://twitter.com/BLAZBLUE_PR/status/925233420967460864 BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle Free Play Survey Announcement]''</ref><br />
<br />
''Cross Tag Battle'''s first gameplay video was released during New York Comic Con, on Oct 6.

<br />
[[File:BlazBlue BBTAG Evo Japan 2018 Demo Character List.jpg|thumb|right|Characters included in the demo for EVO Japan 2018]] A "Special Promotional Trailer" was broadcast during Arc System Work's Fighting Game Awards (ASW FGA) at the end of the ''BlazBlue'' portion of the tournament, prominently featuring and introducing all twenty characters that had revealed up until then, as well as revealing the Japanese release date, Blake, and the final character count of forty characters, twenty of which (including Blake) would be downloadable content (DLC). This was followed up with further details about the release, including the North America release date, prices for physical and downloadable versions, and details about the limited edition.<br />
<br />
Furthermore, it was announced that Arc System Works would appear at the 2018 Japanese Evolution Championship Series (Evo Japan) with a new demo featuring twenty playable characters (the twenty non-DLC characters).<ref>''Famitsu (JP), [https://www.famitsu.com/news/201801/13149729.html BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle's release date, Blake Belladonna revealed!]''</ref> It was announced at a later date that Arc System Works would also be appearing at Taipei Game Show 2018 (TaGS, TGS) along with a playable demo of ''Cross Tag Battle''. This second playable build of ''Cross Tag Battle'' was presented simultaneously at Evo Japan (Jan 26-28, 2018) and Taipei Game Show (Jan 26-29, 2018).<br />
<br />
On Feb 6, 2018 it was announced that ''Cross Tag Battle'' would be the fourth game present at the Evolution Championship Series 2018 (Evo 2018). Along with a broadcast of a fully English-subtitled version of the ASW FGA trailer, it was revealed that Blake and Yang would be provided as free DLC.<ref>''Twitch, redbullesports, [https://www.twitch.tv/videos/226468169?t=00h29m36s 2018 EVO USA Announcement Show]''</ref><br />

<br />
== Gameplay ==<br />
<br />
One round initially had 120 seconds, but was extended to 180 seconds in the January 2018 build. Additionally, in the October 2017 build, players started with three Skill Gauge out of three, but only one Skill Gauge out of an increased maximum of six in the January 2018 build. The January 2018 build also added stage names to the pre-battle cutscene.<br />
<br />
* '''Throw''' (<ruby><rb>通常投げ</rb><rt>Normal Throw</rt></ruby> ''Tsūjō Nage'')<br />
Brings out an attack that the opponent can not block by guarding.<br />
<br />
* '''Anti-Throw'''<br />
Stops an opponent's throw. The input is the same as that for a normal throw.<br />
<br />
* '''Reversal Action''' (リバーサルアクション ''Ribāsaru Akushon'')<br />
A move taken from Persona 4 Arena, this allows you to counterattack while the opponent is attacking. Each character performs a different motion for their reversal action, and characters gain a red aura while this is active.<br />
<br />
* '''Cancel Assist''' (キャンセルアシスト ''Kyanseru Ashisuto'')<br />
Uses 2.5 (50%) of the Cross Gauge during a character's attack to allow one to perform attacks with both characters?????????<br />
<br />
* '''Skill EX''' (EX, <ruby><rb>エクストラスキル</rb><rt>Extra Skill</rt></ruby> ''Ekusutora Sukiru''<ref name="reddit-tgs"/>)<br />
Uses up 1 Skill Gauge (20%) to bring out a special, enhanced skill.<br />
<br />
* '''Reject Guard''' (リジェクトシールド ''Rijekuto Shīrudo'')<br />
In place of the usual white barrier, a more prominent, translucent green barrier appears, and the opponent is pushed back more than half the screen. In the October 2017 build, this used up 0.5 Skill Gauge, but was changed to use 1 Skill Gauge in the January 2018 build.<br />
<br />
* '''Change''' (チェンジ ''Chenji'')<br />
Switch out with the chosen partner character, even while in the middle of an action (including attacking or being hit). The character that was switched out will regain recoverable damage, marked in dark red in the HP bar. When changing, a cut-in of the partner character with the words "Change" overlaid will appear on screen.<br />
<br />
* '''Partner Skill''' (<ruby><rb>パートナーアタック</rb><rt>Partner Attack</rt></ruby> ''Pātonā Atakku'')<br />
Calls the partner onto the screen to attack. For some characters, the attack can be changed by holding forwards or backwards. Additionally, in the words "Active Partner" will appear on the side. The partner character will flash either red (for Player 1) or blue (for Player 2) for the duration that they are on screen.<br />
<br />
* '''Cross Burst''' (クロスバースト ''Kurosu Bāsuto'')<br />
Uses up 100% of your Cross Gauge to have the partner character switch in and attack.<br />
<br />
* '''Distortion Skill''' (ディストーションドライブ ''Dīsutōshon Doraibu'')<br />
Uses up 2 skill gauge to perform a special attack. During the Distortion, the background fades to red or blue and the screen darkens.<br />
<br />
* '''Distortion Skill: Duo''' (ディストーションドライブ・デュオ ''Dīsutōshon Doraibu Duo'')<br />
Uses up 2 skill gauge during the main character's Distortion Skill to have the partner follow up with their own Distortion Skill. In the original build, this only took 1 skill gauge,<ref name="bbtag-toushinsai"/> but was changed to 2 in the January 2018 build.<br />
<br />
* '''Crash Assault''' (クラッシュアサルト ''Kurasshu Asaruto'')<br />
This brings out an overhead attack that cannot be blocked by a crouching opponent. If the opponent is also grounded when this hits, the partner will also jump in to perform an attack. Upon hit, this brings out a "Crash" indicator. This indicator was absent in the initial build of BBTAG, and was added in the January 2018 build.<ref name="reddit-tgs"/><br />
<br />
* '''Cross Combo''' (クロスコンボ ''Kurosu Conbo'')<br />
Calls the partner character to perform attacks together. The type of attack performed can be changed for some characters by inputting either ← or → along with R1. It takes more than 50% of the Cross Gauge regardless of how much Cross Gauge one has. The attacks are greatly strengthened, and the opponent will receive chip damage even if they block. Until the Cross Gauge becomes zero, Resonance Blaze will gain levels one by one, indicated with rectangles on the inside of the Cross Gauge lighting up. <br />
<br />
* '''Resonance Blaze''' (レゾナンスブレイズ ''Rezonansu Bureizu'')<br />
A new system which can only be activated when one of the characters has been downed. It is similar to BlazBlue's Overdrive, in that time freezes momentarily, and the characters pose and make a declaration. BlazBlue characters will have their crest in the background. There are levels to Resonance Blaze, tracked by a rectangular icon split into four parts on the side of the Gauge facing the inside of the screen. Resonance Blaze gains a level when the Cross Gauge is used, and one corner of the rectangular icon lights up. In the October 2017 build, there was a maximum of four levels. In January 2018's build, there's a maximum of five.<ref name="reddit-tgs"/><br />
<br />
When Resonance Blaze is activated, the Gauge glows blue-white and is overlaid with the words "Resonance Blaze," and the rectangular icons on the inside of the bar change to numbers to depict remaining levels. The background becomes tinted in blue, and the Resonance Blaze Gauge will begin to deplete itself. While Resonance Blaze is activated, the character will quickly gain heat and skill gauge and gain a special effect unique to that character, and the timer will freeze. Furthermore, the character will recover recoverable HP. You can only use this system once per round.<br />
<br />
In the initial build, the amount of time spent in Resonance Blaze was extended depending on its level. This was replaced in January 2018's build with a 15-second timer regardless of level that paused for hitstun.<ref name="reddit-tgs"/><br />

'''Meifang Lapislazuli''' is a colonel of the [[Novus Orbis Librarium]] and the leader of the Zeroth Squadron. She was a great threat during the [[Ikaruga Civil War]], and had murdered and tortured a great many people to achieve her goals.<br />
<br />
Meifang is the main antagonist of ''[[BlazBlue: Variable Heart]]''.<br />
<br />
==Appearance==<br />
<br />
Meifang is a woman with a fair complexion, light blue eyes, and black hair. Her hair is tied back by a large crimson ornament, which resembles horns, into two tails. She wears a simple, tight-fitting red NOL dress with a large cream NOL coat over it, signifying she is a member of the Zeroth Squad. The coat has two crosses on the shoulders and several brown straps running around itself. She also wore black tights and the standard issue NOL boots, albeit cream colored.<br />
<br />
==Personality==<br />
<br />
A masochist without remorse for her victims, Meifang was devoid of most emotions and only sought to do what she believed was right. The only goal she had was to make [[Izanami]] come into the world, and she cared for little else. Everyone around her is disposable in her eyes, no matter how important they may be, and how affectionate she may have seemed towards them in the past.<br />
<br />
Meifang has deeply rooted feelings for [[Tenjo Amanohokosaka]], willing to do everything and anything for her and her goals in life. She was disgusted with the [[Ikaruga Civil War]] and why it began, finding the pursuit of a [[Black Beast|Black Beast's]] power foul. To this end, Meifang believes that the only way to protect Tenjo is with power to fight against power.<br />
==Biography==<br />
<br />
===Early Life===<br />
<br />
15 years before the end of the Ikaruga Civil War, the Lapislazuli family was a weak noble family. Meifang’s father saw her as little more than a tool to help increase their families' social status. One day while meeting with nobles at the NOL headquarters, Meifang got sick of it and went outside. In the garden, Meifang saw Tenjo and called her beautiful. Tenjo, however, assumed she was talking about the garden. Tenjo asked Meifang to introduce herself and she did so, with Tenjo saying that Meifang had a good name. Suddenly, a young [[Kagura Mutsuki]] appeared and put a sword to Meifang’s throat, demanding to know who she was. However, Tenjo punched Kagura in the head and told him he was being rude to her guest. [[Houichirou Hazuki]] then arrived and hit Kagura as well, dragging him away and apologizing to the Imperator. From then on, Meifang spoke with Tenjo in the garden every time she visited the NOL headquarters.<br />
<br />
However, the year Meifang entered the [[Military Academy]], the Ikaruga Civil War began. The last time Meifang met Tenjo, she told Meifang that the war happened because of her own weakness. After that Tenjo was moved to a safe place and Meifang was unable to see her.<br />
<br />
After graduating from the Military Academy, Meifang joined the Ikaruga Civil War to try and end it, but then the destruction of [[5th Hierarchical City of Ibukido|Ibukido]] occurred. Meifang broke down, wanting to know why something like that happened if the Imperator didn’t want conflict. [[Relius Clover]] arrived and asked Meifang why she was still alive and that she had an interesting soul. A broken Meifang replied that a devil would of course be in hell but she wouldn’t hand over her [[soul]]. [[Ignis Clover]] tried to grab her, but Meifang said not to touch her since her body belonged to the Imperator, so Relius decided to observe her.<br />
<br />
Later, Meifang led the Zeroth Squadron in an invasion of an NOL meeting discussing the destruction of Ibukido. Meifang saw a member of [[Sector Seven]] and asked why he was there, with one of the people saying he wished to defect. Someone else said the Zeroth Squadron didn’t need to get involved so Meifang killed him and commanded her men to capture everyone.<br />
<br />
While Meifang was alone, [[Hazama]] came in and was surprised that she was trying to stop the war. However, Meifang laughed at him, saying the war was already over and she was just cleaning up for the Imperator and that she would create a world without conflict. At some point, Meifang began to open up various facilities and commanded the [[Fuzzy]] line of [[Vampire|vampires]].<br />
<br />
===Spiral Shift===<br />
<br />
Just as the Ikaruga Civil War was about to end, Meifang had been tipped, presumably by [[Hazama]], about the Ninth Squadron coming too close to discovering Kushinada's Lynchpin and their leader, [[Grimwood Huster]], colluding with Sector Seven and [[Kokonoe]]. She found them and personally wiped out most of his squad, and held Grimwood by his neck in front of their newest recruit, [[Jin Kisaragi]]. Grimwood insulted her, and Meifang, without hesitation, decapitated him. She later knocked out Jin and then presumably ordered the torture of [[Karenjina Parsett]].<br />
<br />
===Variable Heart===<br />
<br />
Immediately following the conclusion of the civil war, Meifang began to take an interest in the [[Hazuki]] heir, [[Mai Natsume]]. She had tricked her into coming into a storage unit in which she declared that she wanted Mai's body; Meifang was preparing to assault her but her blow was blocked by Kagura Mutsuki. Not being deterred, Meifang defeated her fellow general, and chased after Mai who had met up with [[Kajun Faycott]]. To her surprise, Mai was now wielding the [[Legacy Weapons|Legacy Weapon]] - [[Gallia Sphyras: Outseal]]. The two battled but Mai was teleported away by Kokonoe, the latter knowing that Mai would be unable to fight Meifang and live otherwise. <ref>''BlazBlue: Variable Heart, Chapter 2''</ref><br />
<br />
Later on, Hazama paid Meifang a visit while she was bathing. She complimented him for giving her information on Mai and her [[No-Name Grimoire]]. He told her that he was interested in what she was transporting to the [[13th Hierarchical City of Kagutsuchi]], prompting her to exit the bath and ask him to get out of her way. More teasing from Hazama about her love for pain, yet inability to feel it, caused her kick him, but this made [[Yuuki Terumi]] appear and he began strangling her while telling her that he would cut her up and feed her to pigs - Meifang began laughing and lamenting on how it might hurt. Their encounter was cut short as an NOL officer entered the room and both Hazama and Terumi disappeared. Meifang ordered him to awaken the 16th Fuzzy and that information had been leaking. <ref>''BlazBlue: Variable Heart, Chapter 4''</ref><br />
<br />
Meifang would be later seen in the outskirts of Kagutsuchi, investigating how the train carrying [[Bell]] had suddenly stopped and why she was missing. She inspected the snow, wondering if it was why communications were down, and began to ask the nearby NOL officers questions about what happened. One of them spoke about being presented papers that looked as if they were signed by the Imperator, but his tone annoyed Meifang and she executed him on the spot. She spoke down to the other officers, reminding them that speaking badly of the Imperator is treason and punishable by death. Fuzzy appeared and hugged Meifang and they used [[Ars Magus]] to share information. She left Fuzzy to deal with the officers as she had branded them traitors. Meifang began making her way to a facility that she believed [[Jubei]] would be infiltrating.<ref>''BlazBlue: Variable Heart, Chapter 5''</ref><br />
<br />
Meifang would return to the outskirts, finding that Fuzzy was fighting Mai, Kajun, [[Ragna the Bloodedge]], [[Taro Sasaga'e]], and [[Shiori Kirihito]]. She blocked an attack from Mai, taking the blow of Outseal onto the palm of her hand, shocking Kajun who thought it impossible. Meifang explained that she used Ars Magus to stop it from piercing her skin, but it had still damaged her arm. After comforting Fuzzy, she turned to Ragna, being shocked that the [[Azure Grimoire]] would be present. The Zero Squadron had arrived and surrounded them all, and Meifang ordered that Bell, Ragna, and Mai be captured, and that the others should taste the "''best Hell''". Sadly for her, however, [[Rachel Alucard]] appeared and teleported the group away from Meifang and her squadron. <ref>''BlazBlue: Variable Heart, Chapter 11''</ref><br />
<br />
Because of Fuzzy's failure to complete his mission, Meifang disposed of him and used the data he accumulated to overwrite the 17th and 18th unit of an unknown line. <ref>''BlazBlue: Variable Heart, Chapter 12''</ref><br />
<br />
On an airship, Meifang received a report from Hazama that Mai was with the Hazuki family and Meifang said it was as she thought. She ordered her men to continue surveillance. She then said she knew Houichirou and [[Rin Hazuki]] would get in her way one day and started thinking about how to deal with them. <ref>''BlazBlue: Variable Heart, Chapter 14''</ref> She soon awakened the other Fuzzy units, having them bring Bell to her at the [[cauldron]] at the [[11th Hierarchical City of Shinatsu]], who was followed by Mai. She gleefully stared at the captured girls. <ref>''BlazBlue: Variable Heart, Chapter 15''</ref> She toyed with them, and revealed her goal to create another [[Gigant: Take-Mikazuchi]] using No-Name and Bell, briefly being contacted with Kokonoe and threatening to destroy Sector Seven the instant she would gain control of the Nox. Meifang and the Fuzzy were soon interrupted by Jin, who froze one of the vampires. <Ref>''BlazBlue: Variable Heart, Chapter 16''</ref><br />
<br />
==Powers and Techniques==<br />
<br />
Meifang is a deft user of Ars Magus, and has displayed several abilities exclusive to her, such as Pain Killer, which makes her completely immune to all forms of pain - it doesn't seem to be an ability she can turn off, however, as she actually enjoys the pain which is inflicted upon her. As well as this, she is capable of using a mysterious technique that allows her to instantly deal a blow strong enough to punch a clean hole through the average person. Additionally, she is able to use strengthening Ars Magus on her body, which can even block attacks from Outseal (although not completely).<br />
<br />
Despite all her powers, according to Houichirou Hazuki, it's disgraceful to the Hazuki name that Mai was defeated by Meifang, and that the latter is weak.<br />

Captain '''Grimwood Huster''' ('' グリムウッド=ハスター大尉 Gurimuuddo Hasuta'') is the leader of the [[Novus Orbis Librarium]]’s Ninth Squadron, known as the “''Hound Unit''”. They are deployed to weaken opponents so that following squads may kill them, and claim glory for doing so. He dislikes the [[Ikaruga Civil War]] and believed it was all a farce, and had connections to [[Kokonoe]].<br />
<br />
==Appearance==<br />
<br />
Grimwood is a large, muscular man with a tanned complexion, gray eyes, hair, and a large beard. He wears a large NOL coat over a short and simple [[wikipedia:yukata|yukata]], and simple trousers. On his left shoulder is a large pauldron, and on his waist, an oversized belt. Grimwood also wears white vambraces with black fur on one end.<br />
<br />
==Personality==<br />
<br />
A true leader to the troops under his command, Grimwood has no true allegiance to the NOL, and sees the Ikaruga Civil War for what it really was, and not a war over territory. He cares greatly for Karenjina, and saved her life twice from danger. He is not afraid to speak his mind, although this did cost him his life.<br />
<br />
==Biography==<br />
<br />
The earliest information known about Grimwood is that he saved Karenjina Parsett from a laboratory that forced people to awaken their own [[Drive|Drives]], and she would later serve under him as part of his squadron in the NOL.<br />
<br />
===Spiral Shift===<br />
<br />
Towards the end of the Ikaruga Civil War, the Ninth Squadron was placed on the front lines. Here, they received a new member - [[Jin Kisaragi]], and the squadron were immediately deployed as part of an emergency deployment. Their mission was to recover a [[Nox Nyctores]] that [[Sector Seven]] had stolen, but they had arrived at the laboratory two hours late, and were attacked by the corpses inside the facility. After disposing of the necromancer (revealed to be a doll under [[Relius Clover]]’s control) that was moving the corpses, the squadron left the facility.<br />
<br />
Grimwood would later tell Jin that [[Tenjo Amanohokosaka]] is the Imperator of the NOL, and that he had a plan to prematurely end the war by finding the object that he believes the war revolves around, and then destroy it (the object in question being [[Kushinada’s Lynchpin]]). Thanks to Karenjina, the Ninth Squadron discovered the hidden entrance to Kushinada’s Lynchpin, and Grimwood ordered that Karenjina and [[Hazama|Corporal Honoka]] stay behind. The unit discovered ancient writings, and Grimwood believed the enemy they are searching for to be responsible for distributing weapons to the NOL, Sector Seven, and Ikaruga. After being urged to go deeper into the facility by Jin, the squadron were separated from the former.<br />
<br />
Inside the area, the Ninth Squadron were ambushed by [[Meifang Lapislazuli]] and the Wings of Justice division of the NOL. Three of the squadron’s members were killed, and Grimwood lost to Meifang’s overwhelming strength. She publicly denounced him as an ally to Kokonoe, and he, in turn, called her a monster. Outraged, Meifang effortlessly decapitated him. <br />
<br />
Grimwood’s death would deeply distress Karenjina, and serve as a motivation for Jin to prematurely end the war.<br />
<br />
==Powers and Techniques==<br />
<br />
In combat, Grimwood uses a giant axe to fight his opponents, and he is versed in [[Ars Magus]] as a captain of a squad in the frontlines. He demonstrates good leadership and military capability, and is aware of both the strengths and weaknesses of those under his command. Despite all his strengths, he was still nowhere near a match for Meifang, who had left their encounter without even so much as a scratch.<br />

Their mission was to recover a [[Nox Nyctores]] that [[Sector Seven]] had stolen, but they had arrived at the laboratory two hours late, and were attacked by the corpses inside the facility. After disposing of the necromancer (revealed to be a doll under [[Relius Clover]]’s control) that was moving the corpses, the squadron left the facility.<br />
<br />
Grimmwood would later tell Jin that [[Tenjo Amanohokosaka]] is the Imperator of the NOL, and that he had a plan to prematurely end the war by finding the object that he believes the war revolves around, and then destroy it (the object in question being [[Kushinada’s Lynchpin]]). Thanks to Karengina, the Ninth Squadron discovered the hidden entrance to Kushinada’s Lynchpin, and Grimmwood ordered that Karengina and [[Hazama|Corporal Honoka]] stay behind. The unit discovered ancient writings, and Grimmwood believed the enemy they are searching for to be responsible for distributing weapons to the NOL, Sector Seven, and Ikaruga. After being urged to go deeper into the facility by Jin, the squadron were separated from the former.<br />
<br />
Inside the area, the Ninth Squadron were ambushed by [[Meifang Lapislazuli]] and the Wings of Justice division of the NOL. Three of the squadron’s members were killed, and Grimmwood lost to Meifang’s overwhelming strength. She publicly denounced him as an ally to Kokonoe, and he, in turn, called her a monster. Outraged, Meifang effortlessly decapitated him. <br />
<br />
Grimmwood’s death would deeply distress Karengina, and serve as a motivation for Jin to prematurely end the war.<br />
<br />
==Powers and Techniques==<br />
<br />
In combat, Grimmwood uses a giant axe to fight his opponents, and he is versed in [[Ars Magus]] as a captain of a squad in the frontlines. He demonstrates good leadership and military capability, and is aware of both the strengths and weaknesses of those under his command. Despite all his strengths, he was still nowhere near a match for Meifang, who had left their encounter without even so much as a scratch.<br />

Corporal '''Karenjina Patsett''' ('' カレンジーナ=パルセット伍長 Karenji-na Parusetto'') is a member of the [[Novus Orbis Librarium]]’s Ninth Squadron (”''The Hound Unit''”). She is a [[Drive]] user who has blind faith in her captain, [[Grimwood Huster]]. Although she is difficult to approach, she’s loyal to those she trusts.<br />
<br />
==Appearance==<br />
<br />
Karenjina has a dark complexion contrasted by her bright blue eyes. Her hair is black with a singular white streak, and is tied back into multiple drills. Her NOL uniform is quite revealing, showing her torso and the sides of her chest, and has a large pauldron on her left shoulder with an NOL insignia printed on it; it's held in place by a large red rope that ties over her breasts. Karenjina also wears wraps around her forearms, and a brown belt underneath her breasts.<br />
<br />
==Personality==<br />
<br />
To those she's unfamiliar with, Karenjina can come off as cold, aloof, and sarcastic. She does not believe that many can accomplish the tasks that her squadron are often forced to do, and is sceptical of newer members. Despite this, when she warms up to other people, her guard drops and her demeanour becomes kinder. Above all else, her loyalties lie with Grimwood, who she will go above and beyond for. <br />
<br />
Her love for her family was strong enough that she willingly sold herself, and losing them pushed her to become a soldier to avenge them.<br />
==Biography==<br />
<br />
During the [[Ikaruga Civil War]], Karenjina and her younger brothers fell on hard times. Since she was desperate for money, she willingly sold herself to a laboratory that studied souls, and it was here that she was forced to awaken her Drive - Seagull. Eventually, she was rescued from the facility by Captain Grimwood Huster of the NOL, but when she went back to her home, the [[5th Hierarchical City of Ibukido]], it had already been completely annihilated by the [[Nox Nyctores]] - [[Gigant: Take-Mikazuchi]]; her brothers presumably killed in the blast. Karenjina joined the NOL in a search for vengeance and to end the war that took her brother’s lives. She was placed under Grimwood’s command in his squadron.<br />
<br />
===Spiral Shift===<br />
<br />
Near the end of the war, [[Jin Kisaragi]] was assigned to the Ninth Squadron, and Karenjina took an immediate dislike towards him, remarking that he wasn’t needed. Shortly after their unpleasant meeting, the squadron was deployed on an emergency mission to recover a Nox Nyctores that was stolen by [[Sector Seven]], but they had arrived at the destination too late, and were ambushed by the corpses in the lab. Thanks to Karenjina’s Drive, they located the “Necromancer” and disposed of it. Unknown to the Ninth Squadron, Relius Clover was watching nearby, and took note of Jin’s weapon (the [[Mucro Algesco: Yukianesa]]) and Karenjina’s Drive.<br />
<br />
An order later came through to attack the Wadatsumi Castle, but Grimwood took the squadron on a diverting path to find a weapon capable of halting the flow of seithr so it could be destroyed, and potentially end the war. Karenjina’s Drive allowed them to find a suspicious entrance, but she was left behind on Grimwood’s orders with Corporal Honoka (in reality, [[Hazama]]). <br />
<br />
Before long, Karenjina was captured by the NOL’s Zeroth Squadron, led by [[Meifang Lapislazuli]], and was interrogated because of Grimwood’s ties to [[Kokonoe]]. The torture inflicted on her left her in such a state that she was now permanently incapable of activating her Drive. The death of Grimwood would deeply affect her, and Jin later visited her in hospital.<br />
<br />
It’s unknown what happened to Karenjina after the Ikaruga Civil War, and if she stayed with the NOL after her torture and Grimwood’s murder.<br />
<br />
==Powers and Techniques==<br />
<br />
Karenjina was one of the few Drive users in the world. Her Drive, Seagull, allowed her to sense any nearby being by placing her hands on the floor. However, because of her torture by the Zeroth Squadron, she's now unable to use her Drive.<br />
<br />
As a soldier of one of the more dangerous NOL units, Karegina was presumably apt at Ars Magus and combat.<br />

'''Hi no Kagutsuchi''' is a creature under the command of [[Nine the Phantom]]. She uses it during combat to fight against opponents. It debuted in [[BlazBlue: Central Fiction]].<br />
<br />
==Information==<br />
The history of Hi no Kagutsuchi is unknown. All that is known about this beast is that it came under Nine's servitude at least some time after the [[Dark War]], but was not seen in her possession during her time as Phantom. In combat, Hi no Kagutsuchi is largely unseen, only appearing when its master summons it for attacks such as ''Navy Pressure'' and ''Mauvette Roar''. Most of the attacks which involve Hi no Kagutsuchi uses its impressive physical strength, but it is also capable of unleashing a cascade of flames from its mouth to attack opponents. Nine summons Hi no Kagutsuchi's limbs through several portals.<br />
<br />
Hi no Kagutsuchi is a large creature that is physically akin to a demonic entity. It is large enough to easily cradle Nine in its arms. The creature is primarily black with four beady yellow eyes and two horns. Its left horn is much shorter than its right, and is wreathed in flames. Hi no Kagutsuchi's arms are thick with vents on its wrist, and its large hands end in sharp claws. The legs of this creature are longer than Nine herself (who stands at 171cm), and its feet end in sharp claws with pointed heels.<br />

'''Relius Clover''', known to many as the '''Mad Puppeteer''', is the patriarch of the [[Clover]] family and the former Colonel of the [[Novus Orbis Librarium|Novus Orbis Librarium's]] Engineering Department. He was once the leader of the [[Ten Sages]], known as '''The One''' and formerly belonged to the [[Immortal Breakers]], having worked alongside [[Valkenhayn R. Hellsing]].<br />
<br />
Relius first appeared as an NPC in ''[[BlazBlue: Continuum Shift]]'' and was made playable in its remake, ''[[BlazBlue: Continuum Shift Extend]]''. <br />

<br />
==Biography==<br />
<br />
===Ikaruga Civil War===<br />
====Remix Heart, that which is inherited, Spiral Shift====<br />
Having<br />
After the annihilation of Ibukido, Relius visited the ruins, finding [[Meifang Lapislazuli]] there. He wondered how she had survived, marvelling at her soul. He had Ignis attempt to grab her, but the soldier relented, claiming her body belonged to the Imperator alone. Relius decided to observe her from then on. <ref>''BlazBlue: Variable Heart, Chapter 14''</ref> Relius immediately went missing afterwards, having taken Ignis to be with himself and leaving Nirvana behind. Sector Seven had attempted to keep track of him with undercover assistants, but all five of them had disappeared without a trace. Carl came home not long afterwards, and found the incomplete Nirvana with Ada's body inside. <ref>''BlazBlue Material Collection, Carl Clover Short Story - Puppeteers''</ref><br />
<br />
He would later visit the Military Academy, eliminating the [[Guardian]] on the lower levels and telling Ignis to not pursue [[Cypher Albar]] as he was not worth their time. <ref>''BlazBlue: Remix Heart, Chapter 17''</ref> On the higher levels of the Academy, he came across [[Mai Natsume]], noticing her soul is both male and female before leaving, noting how intriguing such a phenomenon is. <ref>''BlazBlue: Remix Heart, Chapter 19''</ref><br />
<br />
===Variable Heart===<br />
Upon learning that Meifang had plans for both Mai and [[Bell]], Relius went to the [[Hazuki]] estate in the [[11th Hierarchical City of Shinatsu]]. There, he incapacitated [[Houichirou Hazuki]] and [[Rin Hazuki]], using sorcery specifically to prevent Rin from copying his techniques with [[Vision]]. <ref>''BlazBlue: Variable Heart, Chapter 15''</ref><br />
<br />
===Central Fiction===<br />
Like many others, Relius was absorbed into the [[Embryo]] and became one of the [[chosen]] – Ignis still accompanied him. His memories were completely unaffected, unlike many others who had been taken inside it. He found Makoto in the Kagutsuchi museum and began commenting on the strength and brightness of her soul despite her being taken into the Embryo. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Episode 003, Chapter 018, Sub Scenario 1''</ref> He later found Izanami bathing, and they discussed her vessel and the creation of Prime Fields before leaving for Ikaruga. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 005, Chapter 035''</ref><br />
<br />
Independently, he found Nine and the two began discussing the Nox Nyctores, the Dark War, and how to remove the [[Tsukuyomi Unit]] that was protecting Amaterasu. He suggested contacting Hazama as he believed him to be bored with nothing more to do. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 005, Chapter 039''</ref> A short time afterwards, he found Litchi, and commended her on being able to hold herself together inside the Embryo and using [[Lao Jiu]] to retrieve memories from the Boundary. He did warn her, however, that her body will deteriorate if she comes too close to Arakune <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 006, Chapter 041, Sub Scenario 1''</ref> In Akitsu, he found Ragna investigating the cauldron, and was fascinated at how he was able to hold his sense of self despite not being chosen. He battled him to verify some speculation and left soon afterwards after asking him to fight Izanami so he could watch the aftermath. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 006, Chapter 048''</ref> The puppeteer later found Nu being assaulted by Arakune and he repelled the monster, then offered to conduct repairs on the Murakumo Unit. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 007, Chapter 051, Sub Scenarion 1''</ref><br />
<br />
His son had found him eventually, and asked Relius if he could be taught of his father’s knowledge. Relius agreed to help Carl, interested in what in his son could do with all of his knowledge. With this, Relius explained to him the [[Prime Field War]], <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 010, Chapter 081''</ref> and how he had seen it with his own eyes, verifying the information. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 010, Chapter 081, Sub Scenario 1''</ref> He sent his and Ignis’ information into the Embryo, finding Hakumen and Tsubaki within it – the data fought the member of the Six Heroes, and evaporated after it had observed what Relius needed. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 011, Chapter 091''</ref> He told Terumi the shape of Hakumen’s soul and soon left the Embryo using the Boundary as a travelling device with Ignis as the method to survive inside it, having observed everything he desired after giving Carl one of his “eyes”. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 011, Chapter 093''</ref><br />

===Relius Clover===<br />
''Carl’s blood-related father. A well-known doll maker, who is also a Captain in the NOL. He is also the creator of the Boundary Interface Prime Field Devices.<br />
<br />
''He covers his eyes with a mask, but generally maintains a chivalrous manner of speech and attitude. Nevertheless, one feels a darker side that he keeps hidden behind the façade, when coming into contact. <br />
<br />
''His personality is extremely methodical, and egoistic. He cares little for anything that does not relate to his research, and he is witty enough to manipulate even Hazama – a bonafide mad scientist who sees humans as objects, and has no hard feelings using them in his experiments.<br />
<br />
''As proof, he used his own wife as the basis for the Detonator, Ignis, and Ada as the platform for Nirvana.<br />
<br />
''Upon discovering Shuichiro Ayatsuki’s ultimate and ancient creation, the Kushinada’s Lynchpin was located in Ikaruga, he wastes no time traveling there.<ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Library Mode, Character #020''</ref><br />

'''Iron Tager''', also known as '''TR-0009 Tager''' or the '''Red Devil''', is an agent of [[Sector Seven]], infamous for his color and stature. Despite his appearance, Tager is much more gentle and intelligent than one would initially believe, and he is infinitely loyal to [[Kokonoe]]. In his life before becoming the Red Devil, Tager was the captain of [[Bullet's Mercenary Squad]].<br />
<br />
Tager debuted as one of the original twelve playable characters in ''[[BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger]]''.<br />

<br />
==Biography==<br />
<br />
===Ikaruga Civil War===<br />
====Trust You, Collisions, Determination, that which is inherited, Remix Heart====<br />
When Tager awoke, he was no longer in Naobi, but a lab within Sector Seven. He looked to his side and saw [[Kokonoe]], and he was unable to remember much of his memories. She gave him his new name "Tager", having made it up on the spot, and told him of his new body being a mix between machinery and Demon cells. He stared into a mirror, attempting to comprehend his appearance. At some point afterwards, he personally requested that Kokonoe seal away every single memory he had, so he wouldn't have to remember his squad being massacred.<br />
<br />
Tager's first mission was to find [[Boundary Interface Prime Field Device|Boundary Interface Prime Field Device's]] deep inside the [[5th Hierarchical City of Ibukido]], one of which was the missing Nu-13. Upon his arrival, he briefly saw a [[Yuuki Terumi|green shadow]] but dismissed it, and ventured deeper into a lab. Three caskets were present, one for [[Mu-12]], Nu, and [[Lambda-11]], with the last being the only one with a specimen still within. He took Lambda away from the facility, quickly returning to Sector Seven as the Prime Field was already deceased and would begin to rot after long. <Ref>''BlazBlue Material Collection, Iron Tager Short Story - Trust You''</ref> He encountered several [[Novus Orbis Librarium]] troops on his way, but managed to defeat them, starting the legend of the "Red Devil". <ref>''BlazBlue Material Collection, Nu-13 Short Story - an evil sign''</ref><br />
<br />
In 2196, Kokonoe sent [[Kajun Faycott]] to the [[15th Hierarchical City of Torifune]] to find the [[Burning Red Grimoire]], hoping that she could use it to further power up Tager. The mission was unsuccessful, however, and he was powered by an [[Artificial Causality Phenomenon Weapon]] instead. <ref>''BlazBlue: Remix Heart, Chapter 25''</ref> Later that year, Kokonoe had discovered [[Hakumen]] deep within the Boundary and began to prepare for a salvage operation with Tager's assistance. <ref>''BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger - Part 2, Chapter 1 - Orient Town''</ref> <br />
<br />
===Variable Heart===<br />
A year afterwards, Tager was teleported to the [[11th Hierarchical City of Shinatsu]] to protect Kokonoe, Kajun, [[Taro Sasagae]], [[Litchi Faye-Ling]], and [[Shiori Kirihito]] from a group of [[Fuzzy]]. <ref>''BlazBlue: Variable Heart, Chapter 15''</ref><br />
<br />
===Calamity Trigger===<br />
Kokonoe deployed Tager to the [[13th Hierarchical City of Kagutsuchi]]. There he set several devices across the [[Hierarchical City]] that were designed to interfere with Hakumen for the salvage operation. After Kokonoe attempted to use [[Phenomenon Intervention]] to retrieve the Hero, Tager was sent on a mission to retrieve all the devices he had deployed since Kokonoe did not want to detonate them. His secondary objective was to go towards the [[Sheol Gate]] to watch a certain event.<br />
<br />
At the cauldron, Tager protected [[Ragna the Bloodedge]] from a fatal blow by [[Yuuki Terumi]]. He grabbed the [[Geminus Anguium: Ouroboros]] and deflected the attack. He noticed that the cauldron was set to detonate and evacuated under Kokonoe's orders - he was reassured by [[Rachel Alucard]] that both Ragna and [[Noel Vermillion]] would be safe since she would teleport them out herself. <Ref>''BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger - Part 2, Chapter 5 - Calamity Trigger, Successor to the Azure''</ref><br />
===Central Fiction===<br />
Alongside Kokonoe and Makoto, Tager was taken by Hibiki into a meeting with Kagura, where he explained the events of the last few months. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 001, Chapter 002''</ref> Tager, like everyone else, was absorbed into the [[Embryo]] floating above Ibukido, and his memories were altered so that he believed the date was the 12/31/2199, and that Bullet had always been a part of Sector Seven. <br />
<br />
He was deployed alongside Bullet to Kagutsuchi inside the Embryo to find the Azure Grimoire. He was found by Litchi, who asked him if he was hunting for Arakune, and the two parted ways on friendly terms, believing that they had not seen each other for years due to their altered memories <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 002, Chapter 010, Sub Scenario 1''</ref> later finding her battling against Noel in [[Roningai]] – they both escaped from the lieutenant. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 003, Chapter 16''</ref> Tager eventually found Ragna at the [[Monorail]] and began fighting him to delay time for the arrival of NOL soldiers and Kagura. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 003, Chapter 021''</ref> <br />
<br />
He was later transported to Ikaruga by [[Nine the Phantom]] and told to kill Izanami to claim his piece of the [[Azure]]. He contacted Kokonoe and was told to rendezvous at Yabiko, and if possible, secure Noel. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 005, Chapter 036, Sub Scenario 1''</ref> He found Arakune in Kazamotsu, but retreated after he was attacked as the monster’s power had substantially increased since the last time they fought. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 005, Chapter 038, Sub Scenario 2''</ref> Tager also found Hakumen and was ordered to bring him in by Kokonoe, although he struggled to, and relented after Hakumen began mocking him, calling him a puppet, not a devil <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 006, Chapter 042, Sub Scenario 1''</ref> He would soon make it to Yabiko and discussed the compared his distorted memories to Kagura, Kokonoe, and Hibiki’s. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 006, Chapter 049''</ref> <br />
<br />
Bullet eventually managed to make contact with Tager and they met in Yabiko. He told her to not pursue Arakune, but she still went out of her way to, and several memories came back the Red Devil over her. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 007, Chapter 053, Sub Scenario 1''</ref> Mai and Noel would arrived thanks to Kagura – Tager and Mai had not spoken for some time and both found enjoyed the reunion. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 007, Chapter 055''</ref> In Akitsu, Tager found Litchi near its cauldron and discovered that Arakune is not Roy, but merely a vessel he created. The cyborg told the doctor to stop, to consider all of the people who would mourn her if she failed to bring him back. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 008, Chapter 062, Sub Scenarion 2''</ref> He was later ordered to return to Yabiko and detain Ragna. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 009, Chapter 068''</ref> He did not manage to complete this objective, and instead created several teleportation coordinates for Kokonoe to use so multiple people could travel to Japan.<br />
<br />
[[File:BlazBlue Central Fiction Story Mode 57(A).png|thumb|right|A meeting with his former subordinate]]Bullet called out for Tager to meet her in the Colosseum. There she confronted him, all her memories returned, about him being the captain of her mercenary squad. Tager revealed to her that all his memories of that life had been sealed away and he was no longer that man. They fought, one last request from his former subordinate, and he lost to her. He watched as Bullet took her own path in life, no longer having the past weigh her down. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 010, Chapter 079, Sub Scenario 2''</ref> The following morning, he was part of the strike squadron sent to Nine’s workshop, where he monitored the control systems. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 010, Chapter 081''</ref><br />
<br />
He was evacuated out of the area and journeyed to [[Celica A. Mercury’s Church]] where he set up a teleporter that was to be activated the following morning. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 010, Chapter 08''</ref> He witnessed Celica’s death before teleporting everyone out of the area. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 010, Chapter 087''</ref> Tager later helped Lambda with organising the coordinates for everyone’s arrival in the frozen space-time of the Embryo. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 011, Chapter 089''</ref> During the Doomsday, Tager evaporated into seithr, his data backed up by [[Es]]. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 011, Chapter 091''</ref><br />
<br />
In the new world created by Ragna, Tager was seen in Yabiko on a mission with Bullet, who had returned to Sector Seven. He was on the phone to Kokonoe. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 012, Chapter 100''</ref><br />

==Powers & Techniques==<br />
<br />
==Library Entry==<br />
===TR-0009 Tager===<br />
''A cyborg warrior who works under the jurisdiction of sector seven. From his appearance, he gained the nickname, ‘Red devil.’<br />
<br />
''He used to be a military man, but after becoming gravely wounded during the Ikaruga Civil War, Kokonoe retrieved his body and rebuilt it into the cyborg that he is today. Thanks to combining his devil-like cells with a transplanted replica of Nirvana’s core, his life is spared, but not his memory. The devil-like cells also have an effect on his appearance.<br />
<br />
''Contrary to his outward appearance, he is gentle and honest. When it comes to missions, he is loyal and versatile, making him Kokonoe’s instant favorite to carry out her orders. In addition to tracking the escaped Hakumen in Kagutsuchi, he retrieved Noel after she became the Eye of the Azure. Kokonoe would be at a loss without his prowess.<br />
<br />
''After bringing Noel and makoto to Sector Seven HQ, he is dispatched by Kokonoe to Ikaruga… for his next mission.<ref>''BlazeBlue: Central Fiction, Library Mode, Character #006''</ref><br />

'''Hakumen''' is the former leader of the [[Six Heroes]] who resides within the [[Sankishin|Sankishin's]] [[Susano'o Unit]]. He is the former wielder of the [[Interfectum Malus: Ookami]]. Before donning the mantle of 'Hakumen', he was a time-displaced [[Jin Kisaragi]] who was transported nearly 100 years in the past.<br />
<br />
Hakumen is one of the original twelve playable characters who debuted in ''[[BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger]]''.<br />

<br />
==Biography==<br />
===Central Fiction===<br />
Although drawn into the [[Embryo]], Hakumen’s memories were not altered because of the Power of Order. Nine subjected him to multiple illusions of Trinity, Valkenhayn, Jubei, and Celica, all taunting him over his reasons to fight in the Dark War, and the aftermath of his presence on the world – he cut his way out of the illusion and went deeper into the Embryo. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 004, Chapter 027, Sub Scenario 1''</ref> He made his way to the NOL branch in Kagutsuchi, easily breaking through although careful to leave no casualties. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 004, Chapter 030''</ref> After fighting his way through the branch, he ended up near the cauldron, finding Ragna and fought him, ending in a stalemate as Noel accidentally opened up the nearby cauldron. He disappeared almost immediately afterwards. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 004, Chapter 031''</ref><br />
<br />
Hakumen was transported to Ikaruga by Nine and told to kill Izanami to inherit his piece of the Azure. He was found by Tager wandering around Ikaruga and was nearly apprehended. He told Kokonoe to find her own path and to Tager that he is not a devil, just a puppet. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 006, Chapter 042, Sub Scenario 1''</ref> Valkenhayn found him much later on, and Hakumen mocked him for not remembering the past. They left on separate paths after discussing the peril that Rachel is in. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 007, Chapter 055, Sub Scenario 1''</ref><br />
<br />
In due time, Hakumen realized that Jubei was trapped in space-time. He travelled to the Kaka Village, meeting [[Platinum the Trinity]] – there, he asked for their materialized [[Hihiirokane]], to which they complied. <Ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 010, Chapter 086, Sub Scenario 2''</ref> He met Tsubaki later on, going to the Yabiko branch together, delivering the Hihiirokane to Jin later on. He told Noel that she is a reflection of [[The Origin]] in the world and insisted on taking her life, only relenting when told there were more important things to take care of. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 011, Chapters 088 – 089''</ref> He journeyed with the others (namely Jin, Tsubaki, Noel, Ragna, [[Lambda-11]], Rachel and Kagura) to the Embryo but was separated in the frozen space-time by Izanami, being put with Tsubaki. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 011, Chapter 090''</ref> They travelled to the Altar above Kagutsuchi to find Requiem, and they found data of Relius Clover and [[Ignis Clover]] – Hakumen battled them, but was unable to kill them once the data had observed what it wanted out of the silver knight. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 011, Chapter 091''</ref> They later found the Amaterasu Unit and Jubei fighting Nu, backing him up and fighting the Murakumo Unit.<br />
<br />
Having watched Ragna defeat Nu when he came to back them, Hakumen immediately turned his sword to the Dark One, acknowledging his strength to be too much to be ignored. Hakumen lost this fight and watched as Nu was sent insane by Terumi, blocking a fatal attack that was launched at Tsubaki. Finally, having defended the woman he was unable to save in his last life, Hakumen turned his blade at the Murakumo Unit and soundly defeated her. Following the battle, the knight was assaulted by Terumi and the original Hihiirokane, his soul shattered, and the Susano’o Unit now returned to its original owner – Terumi, in reality, the God [[Susano'o]]. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 011, Chapter 092''</ref> <br />
<br />
[[File:BlazBlue Central Fiction Story Mode 74(A).png|thumb|right|Sealing the Susano’o Unit away forever]]Terumi was dragged out of the unit and killed by Ragna. Hakumen’s soul, although shattered, still remained in the Unit. He thanked Trinity for throwing it into the deepest, darkest depths of the Boundary where he and it would never be discovered again.<br />

==Library Entry==<br />
===Hakumen===<br />
''One of the Six Heroes who defeated the Black Beast. He analyzes every situation calmly and mechanically, always taking the best possible option.<br />
<br />
''He shows no concern for anyone or thing that is not his enemy. The truth behind his identity, however, is jin, who slipped through time while falling into the cauldron with Ragna and Nu. On the verge of death, Rachel decides to save Jin by merging him with the Susano’o Unit, turning him into Hakumen.<br />
<br />
''Since Hakumen and Jin are in fact the same existence, they would not normally be able to exist in the same plane, but because of the continuum shift, they are able to coexist.<br />
<br />
''After defeating the Black Beast, he is sealed away in another dimension at the hands of a certain someone, but is later salvaged from the Boundary by Kokonoe. His prolonged time in the dimensional prison has stripped from him a majority of his strength.<br />
<br />
''While under Kokonoe’s control upon being salvaged, Rachel frees him. He then heads towards Ikaruga so that he might see his own form of justice through.<ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Library Mode, Character #011''</ref><br />

'''Nine the Phantom''', born '''Konoe Ayatsuki Mercury''' and historically known as the '''Great Magister Nine''', was one of the [[Six Heroes]], the creator of [[Ars Magus]], the [[Nox Nyctores]] and a hailed figure across the world. She was the older sister of [[Celica A. Mercury]], wife to [[Jubei]] and mother of [[Kokonoe]]. Nine was known for her incredible talent with both [[magic]] and [[sorcery]] which she used in great efforts to keep her family safe.<br />
<br />
Nine, as '''Me''', is one of the main protagonists of ''[[XBlaze Lost: Memories]]'' and first appeared as '''Phantom''' in ''[[BlazBlue: Continuum Shift]]''. Nine was finally made playable in ''[[BlazBlue: Central Fiction]]'' where she is the final boss of Arcade's Act I.<br />

[[File:BlazBlue Central Fiction Story Mode 32.png|thumb|left|Standing over the defeated Ragna]]Nine entered the [[embryo]], keeping her memories and free of Izanami's contract. She absolved to finally bring about her new world and to stop Izanami at all costs. In there, she found [[Carl Clover]] and began mocking him over his father. She told him that Relius was partially responsible for the beginning of the Dark War <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 003, Chapter 021, Sub Scenario 1''</ref> She began using the Phantom Field as a base of operations, specifically [[Purgatorium]]. At some point, she created multiple illusions to taunt Hakumen over the Dark War <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 004, Chapter 027, Sub Scenario 1''</ref> Eventually, she summoned Ragna, and the two battled. She won, and told him to defeat Izanami as she had to the chosen, and used phenomenon intervention to send him back to Embryo. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 004, Chapter 034''</ref><br />
<br />
Using phenomenon intervention, she teleported all the chosen to the Embryo’s version of Ikaruga and emitted a voice telling them to defeat Izanami and claim their piece of the Azure. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Episode 005, Chapter 036''</ref> She found Relius, and they talked about the Nox’s and how to remove the [[Tsukuyomi Unit]] from guarding Amaterasu. Nine claimed that by retrieving the other Nox’s, she can remove their cores and make Take-Mikazuchi even more powerful than before. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 005, Chapter 039, Sub Scenario 1''</ref> She later found [[Nu-13]] attempting to retrieve the [[Phoenix: Rettenjo|Rettenjo]] from [[Bang Shishigami]] and interrupted their fight, making it a three-way battle. Unfortunately for her, Bang managed to flee with his Nox and its core. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 006, Chapter 050, Sub Scenario 1''</ref> She used the Requiem to constantly move Ragna through possibilities.<br />
<br />
Later, Nine found a group consisting of Jubei, [[Iron Tager]], Kokonoe, Jin, Ragna, Celica, Rachel, and Trinity entering her workshop. She fought Jubei, who was standing guard, defeated him, and threw him into the group. She explained that she was going to end the world, with Requiem becoming its replacement God. She told the group of the Dark War, and during its aftermath, how it should have been impossible to create Ars Magus in such a short space of time. She then told them of the [[Prime Field War]] and how the world as they know it came to exist before finally fighting Ragna – the battle was going her way for a great portion of it, but Nine was distracted by looking at Celica, which bought the Grim Reaper enough time to gravely wound her and steal her dream. Jubei and Celica rushed to her side, and she promised them that she would meet them in the afterlife. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 010, Chapter 081''</ref><br />
<br />
[[File:BlazBlue Central Fiction Story Mode 56(B).png|thumb|right|Nine passes away with a smile]]Izanami came to her workshop, making Nine use the [[Radiance of Extinguishment]], allowing her to both activate Requiem and bind Izanami. Nu entered, and was stopped by Jubei, who rushed to her side to protect his wife. Nine gave Ragna a warning that they would have one week until the space-time around the workshop would return to normal. She died, dissolving into seithr – her last moments spent being happy that Jubei could protect her one last time. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 010, Chapter 082''</ref><br />

<br />

'''Celica Ayatsuki Mercury''', sometimes known as the '''Sister''', was the younger sister of [[Nine the Phantom]]. She was an excellent user of [[Sorcery|sorcery]] and [[Magic|magic]], being one of the few people in existence capable of exceptional healing sorcery. After surviving through the [[Dark War]], Celica became a nun, looking after [[Ragna the Bloodedge]], [[Noel Vermillion]], and [[Saya]] before being brutally murdered by [[Yuuki Terumi]]. A copy of her soul when she was a young woman was made material by [[Kokonoe]].<br />
<br />
Celica has been the wielder of both the [[Nox Nyctores]] - [[Deus Machina: Nirvana]] and the [[Ex Machina: Minerva]]. She made her debut in ''[[BlazBlue: Phase 0]]'' before appearing in ''[[BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma]]''. Celica was made playable in ''[[BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma Extend]]'' and, as '''Little Sister''', is one of the main protagonists of ''[[XBlaze Lost: Memories]]''.<br />

Jin was seriously injured from his fight against Ragna, and Celica tended to his wounds, staying close to his side. She did her best, but left to report to Kokonoe afterwards, bumping into Tsubaki and suggesting that she visit Jin to cheer him up. She was soon taken inside the Embryo with Minerva. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Episode 001, Chapter 002 – 003''</ref><br />
<br />
She found herself in [[Orient Town]] in the [[13th Hierarchical City of Kagutsuchi]] with Minerva. She came across a wanted poster of Ragna, and chirped to Minerva that they would find him and Kokonoe in the city. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Episode 002, Chapter 010, Sub Scenario 2''</ref> Through Celica’s direction, they ended up in [[Bascule]] where they met [[Naoto Kurogane]], he asked them for directions and described [[Raquel Alucard]] to them, although the young mage thought he was describing Rachel. They decided to travel together throughout the city. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 004, Chapter 026''</ref> She, Naoto, and Minerva were teleported to Ikaruga and heard Nine’s voice telling her to kill Izanami to claim her piece of the Azure. Worried for her sister, she immediately went to try and find her. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 005, Chapter 038''</ref><br />
<br />
Finally arriving at Yabiko, Celica explained to Naoto about Nine and the Dark War. She asked more about who Naoto was looking for, and began to realise that they may not be looking for the same person, and her own careless nature made her lose him in the crowds. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 007, Chapter 051''</ref> It took her a while to notice she had lost him, but she was soon enough distracted by finding Carl and Nirvana, the former with distorted memories. Because of said memories, Celica accidentally offended the young boy, and he ordered Nirvana to attack, but she relented as she, like Celica, knew the truth. Although upset that she had offended Carl once he left, she went on to try and find Naoto with Minerva reassuring her that she said nothing wrong. <ref>''BlazBlue: Story Mode, Episode 007, Chapter 054''</ref><br />
<br />
[[File:BlazBlue Central Fiction Story Mode 49.png|thumb|left|She finally found him]]In Kazamotsu, Celica found Ragna. Reunited, they travelled together to Yabiko to find Kagura, Noel, and Kokonoe. The young mage told him of her dream for everyone to be happy and they eventually found Yabiko together. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 009, Chapter 064''</ref> Celica went ahead to assess the situation of the people’s distorted memories of Ragna, only managing to get inside the branch because of Minerva’s directions. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 009, Chapter 065''</ref> Hibiki found her, and they went together to Kagura’s office <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 009, Chapter 065''</ref> – Kokonoe explained to her that she unable to find Celica because of the teleporter malfunctioning due to the mismatched coordinates of the Embryo. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 009, Chapter 067''</ref> She was upset with her niece’s decision to send Tager to capture Ragna. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 009, Chapter 069''</ref> She reunited with Ragna once he was brought back to the branch, and listened to Kokonoe’s explanation of the existence of the [[Corpus Sepulcro: Requiem]], also learning that Nine’s transformed her father’s workshop into her own. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 010, Chapter 078''</ref><br />
<br />
She was later part of the strike squadron sent to Nine’s workshop. Celica watched as her sister beat Jubei throwing him at her and the others. She listened to her explanation of the world, the [[Prime Field War]], and why she had created Requiem. Celica held Jubei as Ragna fought Nine, and rushed to her sister’s side when she was defeated. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 010, Chapter 081''</ref> Izanami arrived, and began assaulting the group and Celica watched as her sister used the [[Radiance of Extinguishment]] to activate Requiem and bind Izanami – she watched as her only sister died saving her, and was teleported out of the workshop using her sorcery to force Rachel into using hers, greatly reducing the time she had left in the world. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 010, Chapter 082''</ref><br />

===Sister===<br />
''The person who raised Ragna, Jin and Saya. A gentle yet strict woman.''<br />
<br />
''She's one of the few pure sorcerers who is able to use magic without relying on seithr. She was tasked with protecting the area in which the Black Beast's fragments lay. However, Terumi murders her in cold blood, deciding she would interfere with his plans.'' <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Library Mode, Character #054''</ref><br />
<br />
===Celica A. Mercury===<br />
''Someone who doesn't belong in this timeline, a Chrono Phantasma.''<br />
<br />
''With Kushinada's Lynchpin as the key to activation, Kokonoe replicates her soul from the past, and binds it to a vessel in the present. As such, Celica does not show up on the Master Unit's or Takamagahara's records, which makes her 'un-Observable.'''<br />
<br />
''In her normal timeline, she would be attending the Mage's Guild's school. She's Nine's younger sister, one of the Six Heroes. She is unbelievably cheerful, and is optimistic in virtually every situation -- she also never backs down on a point, once she's made up her mind.''<br />
<br />
''She heads to Japan in search of her missing father, and meets Bloodedge along the way, which will end up changing her fate forever.''<br />
<br />
''Since birth, she was adept in the usage of healing magics, which is one of the reasons she is able to suppress the forces of the Boundary. Her ability to nullify seithr is perhaps nature's way of resisting its influence.''<br />
<br />
''Her sense of direction is hopelessly awful, but for some reason she is not aware of this fact.'' <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Library Mode, Character #057''</ref><br />

Professor '''Kokonoe Mercury''' is a leading member of [[Sector Seven]] and the daughter of the [[Six Heroes]] [[Jubei]] and [[Nine the Phantom]]. She is an accomplished scientist and helped organize the coup d'etat to put [[Homura Amanohokosaka]] on the throne of the [[Novus Orbis Librarium]]. Kokonoe is nearly always seen communicating with [[Iron Tager]].<br />
<br />
Kokonoe first appeared as an NPC in ''[[BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger]]'' and was made playable as the second DLC character for ''[[BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma]]''.<br />
==Appearance==<br />
<br />
==Personality==<br />
<br />
==Biography==<br />
===Ikaruga Civil War===<br />
====Spiral Shift, Remix Heart, Collisions, Determination, The Rat, that which is inherited, Trust You====<br />
<br />
With the success of the operation to retrieve Nirvana, Kokonoe took in the captain of the squadron who was barely alive from his encounter with Azrael. She performed multiple operations on him, and found that he was a compatible match with [[Demon|demon cells]]. Elated, she injected him with them, and used cybernetics to replace what did not regenerate. When the captain finally awoke, Kokonoe christened him "[[Iron Tager]]", a name she had just invented at that moment, and took some code to help him move smoothly, not taking notice of his reactions to her beastkin heritage. Kokonoe kept experimenting on Tager with the pretext that she was searching for a way to return him back to how he previously was. <br />
<br />
Before long, she deployed Tager to Ibukido with the objective of retrieving the Prime Field within one of the laboratories. [[Lambda-11]] was retrieved and Tager immediately returned back to Sector Seven after Kokonoe warned him of her rotting if left too long. <ref>''BlazBlue Material Collection, Iron Tager Short Story - Trust You''</ref><br />
<br />
In 2196, upon learning that the [[Burning Red Grimoire]] was possibly within the [[15th Hierarchical City of Torifune]], Kokonoe deployed [[Kajun Faycott]] as an undercover spy to the academy. She later contacted her, telling her that readings of the [[Azure Grimoire]] had surfaced within the facility. <ref>''BlazBlue: Remix Heart, Chapter 10''</ref> Kajun later contacted Kokonoe, giving her a reading of a sample from an [[alchemy]] based creature. The two deduced that a [[Seifer Albar|former Sector Seven researcher]] was lurking within the facility. <ref>''BlazBlue: Remix Heart, Chapter 19''</ref> <br />
<br />
Kajun later contacted Kokonoe, reporting that both the incomplete Burning Red and the scientist had escaped. Kokonoe revealed that she had been planning to use the Grimoire to fuel Tager, resigning herself to finding an alternative. <ref>''BlazBlue: Remix Heart, Chapter 25''</ref> Sometime later that year, Kokonoe began to prepare for a salvage operation to retrieve [[Hakumen]], one of the Six Heroes, from the Boundary. <ref>''BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger - Part 2, Chapter 1 - Orient Town''</ref> She also outfitted Tager with an [[Artificial Causality Phenomenon Weapon]].<br />
<br />
===Variable Heart===<br />
With Litchi, Kokonoe travelled to the [[11th Hierarchical City of Shinatsu]]'s [[Hazuki]] estate. There, she launched a projectile at both [[Mai Natsume]] and [[Houichirou Hazuki]], managing to make the latter take a step-back. <ref>''BlazBlue: Variable Heart, Chapter 13''</ref> She offered Mai a choice - join her or be protected by her father <ref>''BlazBlue: Variable Heart, Chapter 14''</ref>; Mai chose her. The group, consisting of Mai, Kajun, Litchi, [[Bell]], [[Taro Sasagae]], and [[Shiori Kirihito]], travelled to the cauldron within Shinatsu since teleportation was not an option with such a large group. They were soon assaulted by a group of [[Fuzzy]], and Kokonoe teleported Tager to her location to help fight them off. Both Bell and Mai, however, were much deeper inside the facility than they were. <ref>''BlazBlue: Variable Heart, Chapter 15''</ref> In reality, Kokonoe had intended for the two girls to be bait while she had interacted with Kagura, urging him to send [[Jin Kisaragi]] to assist Mai in fighting Meifang and the vampires. Through an Ars, she communicated with Meifang and learned of her plan to recreate another [[Gigant: Take-Mikazuchi]] by smelting the [[No-Name Grimoire]] and Bell; Kokonoe was curious as to how this would work, but she was only met with threat from the colonel of the Zero Squadron. <Ref>''BlazBlue: Variable Heart, Chapter 16''</ref><br />
<br />
===Calamity Trigger===<br />
In the [[13th Hierarchical City of Kagutsuchi]], Tager followed Kokonoe's orders, placing various nodes across the [[Hierarchical City]] to retain Hakumen when he would appear. She interfered with the fight between Ragna the Bloodedge and the Hero, using [[Phenomenon Intervention]] against the latter. She continued to watch as Hakumen was defeated, and then secured him, transporting him back to Sector Seven. She asked Tager to retrieve all the nodes he had placed earlier since she did not wish to detonate them, and gave him the secondary objective of watching the events that were about to unfold next to the [[Sheol Gate]].<br />
<br />
Through Tager, Kokonoe saw that [[Yuuki Terumi]] was revived - the man who had killed her mother and corrupted Roy. She taunted him but the encounter was cut short as the cauldron was set to detonate, so Kokonoe relented and ordered Tager to retreat. <Ref>''BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger - Part 2, Chapter 5 - Calamity Trigger, Successor to the Azure''</ref><br />
<br />
===Central Fiction===<br />
Kokonoe gave an explanation of the events surrounding the last few months to Hibiki, Makoto, and Tager. Celica reported to her the details of Jin’s injuries – before long, Kokonoe noticed that Noel had been teleported out of the facility, but before she could act on it, she was absorbed into the Embryo. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 001, Chapter 002 – 006''</ref> Her memories were altered so that she never remembered salvaging Hakumen, reviving Celica, Lambda’s death, and also believed that Bullet had always been a member of Sector Seven. She too was forced to believe the date was 12/31/2199.<br />
<br />
Inside the Embryo, Kokonoe began searching for the Azure Grimoire, and deployed both Tager and Bullet to find it. Mai had volunteered to go down to assist in their mission, and Kokonoe gave her some data pertaining to her objectives, but warned her to not go near the Azure Grimoire whatsoever due to her state. Mai went to make the scientist coffee, reminding the latter of when she had Roy under her wing. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 003, Chapter 015, Sub Scenario 1''</ref> When Tager found Ragna, she asked him some questions, buying time for Kagura and an NOL squadron to arrive to apprehend him. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 003, Chapter 021''</ref><br />
<br />
Personally, Kokonoe made her way to Kagutsuchi, and stayed inside the NOL branch where Hibiki issued her a fake ID. She came because of the appearances of Celica, Hakumen, and [[Naoto Kurogane]] – the former two, to her distorted memory, should not be in the time-period, and the latter does not show up on any database. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 004, Chapter 023''</ref><br />
<br />
A massive phenomenon event occurred, forcing Kokonoe into Ikaruga where she heard the voice of her mother, Nine, calling her to kill Izanami and claim her piece of the Azure, Initially shook by hearing her voice, a voice she had not heard for over 85 years, she contacted Tager and began a rendezvous plan, making her way to Yabiko. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 005, Chapter 036, Sub Scenario 1''</ref> She received another call from Tager later on when he encountered Arakune; she initially ordered that he capture the monster, but after seeing that he had a compressed core of seithr in him, similar to a Nox, she ordered that he retreat as they had no new data on him. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 005, Chapter 038, Sub Scenario 2''</ref><br />
<br />
Tager found Hakumen wandering around Ikaruga. She asked him to come back to her laboratory so she could gather data, but he refused, telling her to find her own path <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 006, Chapter 042, Sub Scenario 1''</ref> Now in Yabiko, Kokonoe, Kagura, Hibiki, and Tager all discussed the differences in their memories. Again, she looked back on how Hakumen and Celica could still be in the timeline and how too many coincidences were lining up with one another. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 006, Chapter 049''</ref> Kagura came back with both Mai and Noel in tow, and the conversation continued. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 007, Chapter 055''</ref> Kokonoe later spent her time fixing the differences in data using her memories, now fully returned to her. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 008, Chapter 063, Sub Scenario 1''</ref><br />
<br />
In time, Celica returned to the Yabiko branch where Kokonoe was staying. She explained to her aunt that she was unable to find her due to her teleporter’s coordinates being distorted by the Embryo’s landscape. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 009, Chapter 067''</ref>, She found Celica’s memories unaffected by the Embryo and deployed Tager to tackle Ragna, knowing that he could be starting something serious. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 009, Chapter 069''</ref> Rachel later asked her to help with locating Ragna and she complied, finding him near Ibukido and bringing him back to Yabiko. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 010, Chapter 07''</ref> She performed maintenance on his arm and the Idea Engine. She warned him about the power he was using, and about Celica’s existence having the probability of disappearing at any moment. She explained to everyone about the hidden eleventh Nox Nyctores, the [[Corpus Sepulcro: Requiem]] and how she built Sector Seven’s headquarters over her mother’s workshop. It would not be long until both Jin and Jubei arrived to tell her that it would be impossible to break into the workshop through brute strength alone. Kokonoe realised this, knowing she could not use her blood to enter the workshop due to her beastkin heritage. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 010, Chapter 079''</ref> <br />
<br />
The following morning, Kokonoe was part of the strike squad sent to Nine’s workshop. Inside the workshop, Nine defeated Jubei and told the group her desire, about the world, the [[Prime Field War]], and why she created Requiem. She watched as her mother was defeated by Ragna and sent on her deathbed, understanding why as she opposed her mother’s ideals to create a new world. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 010, Chapter 081''</ref> Kokonoe defended Nine when Izanami arrived to kill them all, but had no choice but to watch her use the [[Radiance of Extinguishment]] and teleported out of the area after she watched her mother die – she was forced to leave her father behind in the area as well. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 010, Chapter 082''</ref><br />
<br />
Kokonoe arrived at her [[Celica A. Mercury’s Church|aunt’s church]], completely intact. She marvelled at it for half-an-hour before the others arrived, presumably because of the desynched time caused by Requiem. She soon left for Yabiko, handing Rachel a communicator in case anything should happen to Celica and Noel. Back at her lab, Kokonoe realised the only way to access the frozen space-time to save Jubei and destroy Requiem would be to take measurements from [[Naoto Kurogane]] <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 010, Chapter 084, Sub Scenario 1''</ref>. She teleported to his location in Ikaruga and battled him to take data measurements, but scared him off when she was unable to have him return to the laboratory. She teleported back and deployed Makoto to capture him. She did have enough measurements to form a hypothesis. <Ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story mode, Chapter 084, Sub Scenario 1''</ref><br />
<br />
With her hypothesis, Kokonoe gave her master plan to kill Izanami, destroy Requiem and save Jubei to a group consisting of Kagura, Lambda, Minerva, Ragna, Noel, Jin, Trinity, Hakumen, Tsubaki, Tager, and Rachel. An Embryo floated above Ikaruga, and they would enter it to venture to end up above the frozen space-time where Requiem existed. Tsubaki would create a [[Zanki Barrier]] to ignore phenomenon intervention, and Hakumen would cut through time to save Jubei. Furthermore, Kagura would deal with Azrael, Ragna and Rachel with Terumi, Lambda and Tager with coordinates, Minerva with Requiem’s destruction, and Noel with Izanami. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 011, Chapter 088 – 089''</ref> Her plan fell apart, however, when Izanami managed to scatter the group across the space-time and took Requiem, transporting it elsewhere. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 011, Chapter 090''</ref><br />
<br />
Makoto succeeded in her mission, and Kokonoe deployed both her and Naoto into the frozen space-time to back up the others. She heard of Kagura and Jin’s success in defeating Azrael. She was visited by [[Es]], who backed up her data and told her that the Doomsday was still commencing. Kokonoe contacted Ragna and Noel afterwards, knowing that Requiem was now destroyed and Izanami absorbed, warning Noel to be careful with what she remembers, and ordering them to find the Amaterasu Unit and send it back into the Boundary so a new possibility can be born. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 011, Chapters 090 – 091''</ref><br />
<br />
Almost immediately after Es left, Kokonoe began evaporating into seithr. She created a backup of herself using accumulated data and Sector Seven’s remaining energy. The backup guided the remainder of the group after [[Susano’o]] was reborn, and passed on all the data it could to Trinity. She told Jubei to apologize for his parenting to the real Kokonoe, and not the backup, in the next world. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 011, Chapter 092''</ref><br />
<br />
In the new world created by Ragna, Kokonoe gave assistance to Tager and Bullet on a mission in Yabiko. She kept watch over the Dog House where Azrael slept. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 012, Chapter 100''</ref><br />

'''Hakumen''' is the former leader of the [[Six Heroes]] who resides within the [[Sankishin|Sankishin's]] [[Susano'o Unit]]. He is the former wielder of the [[Interfectum Malus: Ookami]]. Before donning the mantle of 'Hakumen', he was a time-displaced [[Jin Kisaragi]] who was transported nearly 100 years in the past.<br />
<br />
Hakumen is one of the original twelve playable characters who debuted in ''[[BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger]]''.<br />
==Appearance==<br />
<br />
==Personality==<br />
<br />
==Biography==<br />
===Central Fiction===<br />
Although drawn into the [[Embryo]], Hakumen’s memories were not altered because of the Power of Order. Nine subjected him to multiple illusions of Trinity, Valkenhayn, Jubei, and Celica, all taunting him over his reasons to fight in the Dark War, and the aftermath of his presence on the world – he cut his way out of the illusion and went deeper into the Embryo. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 004, Chapter 027, Sub Scenario 1''</ref> He made his way to the NOL branch in Kagutsuchi, easily breaking through although careful to leave no casualties. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 004, Chapter 030''</ref> After fighting his way through the branch, he ended up near the cauldron, finding Ragna and fought him, ending in a stalemate as Noel accidentally opened up the nearby cauldron. He disappeared almost immediately afterwards. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 004, Chapter 031''</ref><br />
<br />
Hakumen was transported to Ikaruga by Nine and told to kill Izanami to inherit his piece of the Azure. He was found by Tager wandering around Ikaruga and was nearly apprehended. He told Kokonoe to find her own path and to Tager that he is not a devil, just a puppet. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 006, Chapter 042, Sub Scenario 1''</ref> Valkenhayn found him much later on, and Hakumen mocked him for not remembering the past. They left on separate paths after discussing the peril that Rachel is in. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 007, Chapter 055, Sub Scenario 1''</ref><br />
<br />
In due time, Hakumen realized that Jubei was trapped in space-time. He travelled to the Kaka Village, meeting [[Platinum the Trinity]] – there, he asked for their materialized [[Hihiirokane]], to which they complied. <Ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 010, Chapter 086, Sub Scenario 2''</ref> He met Tsubaki later on, going to the Yabiko branch together, delivering the Hihiirokane to Jin later on. He told Noel that she is a reflection of [[The Origin]] in the world and insisted on taking her life, only relenting when told there were more important things to take care of. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 011, Chapters 088 – 089''</ref> He journeyed with the others (namely Jin, Tsubaki, Noel, Ragna, [[Lambda-11]], Rachel and Kagura) to the Embryo but was separated in the frozen space-time by Izanami, being put with Tsubaki. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 011, Chapter 090''</ref> They travelled to the Altar above Kagutsuchi to find Requiem, and they found data of Relius Clover and [[Ignis Clover]] – Hakumen battled them, but was unable to kill them once the data had observed what it wanted out of the silver knight. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 011, Chapter 091''</ref> They later found the Amaterasu Unit and Jubei fighting Nu, backing him up and fighting the Murakumo Unit.<br />
<br />
Having watched Ragna defeat Nu when he came to back them, Hakumen immediately turned his sword to the Dark One, acknowledging his strength to be too much to be ignored. Hakumen lost this fight and watched as Nu was sent insane by Terumi, blocking a fatal attack that was launched at Tsubaki. Finally, having defended the woman he was unable to save in his last life, Hakumen turned his blade at the Murakumo Unit and soundly defeated her. Following the battle, the knight was assaulted by Terumi and the original Hihiirokane, his soul shattered, and the Susano’o Unit now returned to its original owner – Terumi, in reality, the God [[Susano'o]]. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 011, Chapter 092''</ref> <br />
<br />
[[File:BlazBlue Central Fiction Story Mode 74(A).png|thumb|right|Sealing the Susano’o Unit away forever]]Terumi was dragged out of the unit and killed by Ragna. Hakumen’s soul, although shattered, still remained in the Unit. He thanked Trinity for throwing it into the deepest, darkest depths of the Boundary where he and it would never be discovered again.<br />

===Hakumen===<br />
''One of the Six Heroes who defeated the Black Beast. He analyzes every situation calmly and mechanically, always taking the best possible option.<br />
<br />
''He shows no concern for anyone or thing that is not his enemy. The truth behind his identity, however, is jin, who slipped through time while falling into the cauldron with Ragna and Nu. On the verge of death, Rachel decides to save Jin by merging him with the Susano’o Unit, turning him into Hakumen.<br />
<br />
''Since Hakumen and Jin are in fact the same existence, they would not normally be able to exist in the same plane, but because of the continuum shift, they are able to coexist.<br />
<br />
''After defeating the Black Beast, he is sealed away in another dimension at the hands of a certain someone, but is later salvaged from the Boundary by Kokonoe. His prolonged time in the dimensional prison has stripped from him a majority of his strength.<br />
<br />
''While under Kokonoe’s control upon being salvaged, Rachel frees him. He then heads towards Ikaruga so that he might see his own form of justice through.<ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Library Mode, Character #011''</ref><br />

'''Valkenhayn R. Hellsing''', sometimes known as the '''Silver Wolf''', is the eternally loyal servant of [[Rachel Alucard]]. He is one of the [[Six Heroes]] who fought against the [[Black Beast]] during the [[Dark War]] and a former [[Immortal Breakers|Immortal Breaker]], having worked with [[Relius Clover]] in his youth. After being saved by [[Clavis Alucard]], Valkenhayn swore his loyalty to the [[Alucard Clan]], keeping his oath for over a century.<br />
<br />
Originally, Valkenhayn appeared as an NPC in ''[[BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger]]'' and was made playable as the second DLC character for ''[[BlazBlue: Continuum Shift]]''.<br />

==Biography==<br />
===Central Fiction===<br />
Like the rest of the cast, Valkenhayn was absorbed into the Embryo, had his memories altered, and believed that the date was 12/31/2199. He found Rachel in her room, and entered with Nago and Gii. Rachel’s memories were unaffected, and he told her to rest as she was rapidly losing her power, although he could not remember why. The lycanthrope noticed an uncomfortable feeling about the world he was in. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 002, Chapter 007, Sub Scenario 2''</ref> He was sent to Ikaruga by Nine, and told to kill Izanami in order to secure his piece of the [[Azure]]. He found Rachel, and begged her to return to the castle lest she disappear from the world. She repelled the idea and asked that he spy on the other chosen, and return to her at intervals giving information back on who they are and what they are doing – the old lycanthrope complied, <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 005, Chapter 038, Sub Scenario 1''</ref> although he came back to his mistresses’ side when he saw her battling against Naoto Kurogane. He was about to attack the young man but he was teleported away. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 007, Chapter 052''</ref><br />
<br />
[[File:BlazBlue Central Fiction Story Mode 73(B).png|thumb|left|Ragna leaves the rest to Valkenhayn]]Sometime later, Valkenhayn had lost Rachel, and began searching for her; during his search, he came across Hakumen, realising that the knight had not lost his memories. Hakumen gave him some advice, telling him that he cannot stop Rachel’s headstrong attitude. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 007, Chapter 055, Sub Scenario 1''</ref> He found his mistress later on and met Ragna, asking the Grim Reaper to hold his tongue when he called her weak. He did not prevent him from leaving. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 010, Chapter 074''</ref> In due time, Valkenhayn learnt that killing [[Amane Nishiki]], the current Onlooker of the world, may restore power to back to Rachel, its former Onlooker. He found him atop the [[Altar]] and they fought, but the lycanthrope, as a being outside Logic, could not kill him. Amane asked Valkenhayn about his loyalty – was it to the promise he made Clavis years ago to protect Rachel, or is to Rachel herself? He answered the latter and was told about Ragna’s plan to save the world and create a new possibility where Rachel would still live. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 011, Chapter 089, Sub Scenario 1''</ref> On the outside of the Embryo, Valkenhayn took Rachel away from Ragna after watching them share a tender embrace, and he and his mistress soon returned to seithr. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 012, Chapter 095''</ref><br />
<br />
In the new world created by Ragna, Valkenhayn was seen preparing tea for Rachel for when she would return to the Alucard Castle. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 012, Chapter 100''</ref><br />

'''Bullet''' is a mercenary who formerly belonged to the [[Bullet's Mercenary Squad|Mercenary Squad]] before its complete annihilation at the hands of [[Azrael]]. She was on a quest for revenge for her fallen comrades.<br />
<br />
Bullet was made playable in ''[[BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma]]'', the same game she debuted in.<br />
==Appearance==<br />
<br />
==Personality==<br />
<br />
==Biography==<br />
Bullet was brought up in a mercenary squad, the only girl among its all-male members. She considered them the only family she knew and grew attached to the [[Iron Tager|captain]] of her squadron. At some point, a combat instructor known as [[Amane Nishiki]] was hired by the squadron's drill sergeant; compelled to join in with her family, Bullet participated in the training which was three days and nights of solid oriental dancing. Amane soon left, realizing that he had mistaken the "troops" for "troupe" - Bullet swore revenge as the music that played that night was permanently engraved into her memory. <ref>''BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma, Arcade Mode, Bullet - Paranoia''</ref><br />
<br />
===Central Fiction===<br />
Becoming one of the [[chosen]], Bullet was absorbed into the [[Embryo]], and came to believe that she had been a member of Sector Seven as her memories were altered. She was deployed by Kokonoe alongside Tager to the [[13th Hierarchical City of Kagutsuchi]] to capture the [[Azure Grimoire]]. En route to Kagutsuchi’s main hub, she came across [[Platinum the Trinity]] in [[Bascule]] but was unable to properly see her due to her fluctuating existence, and continued forward towards her objective. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 002, Chapter 008, Sub Scenario 1''</ref> She was found by Noel in [[Roningai]], and was nearly arrested until Tager came to her aide – they both retreated. <ref>''BlazBlue: Cental Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 03, Chapter 016''</ref> She descended to the lower levels, admitting to herself that she had underestimated Noel, and coming into contact with [[Arakune]] and fighting him off <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Episode 003, Chapter 016, Sub Scenario 1''</ref><br />
<br />
Like all other Entitled, Bullet was transported to Ikaruga. Because of the seithr around where she was transported, it took her longer than she expected to get back into contact with Sector Seven. She eventually found Tager and, despite his warnings, went to pursue Arakune to bring him back to Kokonoe. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 007, Chapter 053, Sub Scenario 1''</ref> In a forest, Bullet’s memories had failed to truly return to her, as she only saw flashes of her past. Azrael found her, but was disappointed in her being one of the last of the chosen to regain their memories. He ruthlessly beat her and left her and telling her about her past. Bullet resolved to find Tager, unsure if he was or wasn’t the captain of her squad. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 008, Chapter 063, Sub Scenario 2''</ref> Ragna would soon appear and devour her dream. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 010, Chapter 075''</ref><br />
<br />
[[File:BlazBlue Central Fiction Story Mode 57(A).png|thumb|left|Finally putting her past behind her]]Soon enough, Bullet’s memories did return, and she called out for Tager to meet her in the Colosseum. There she challenged him over his memories, knowing that he had to be the captain that she had spent the last few years searching for, but Tager revealed to her that his memories had been sealed away and that he can’t remember anything before coming into Kokonoe’s service. Bullet challenged him, hoping that she could prove to her former captain that she is stronger than she was when she was a child – through her strength and resolve, Bullet won, and told him that she would striving down her own path, and would not be weighed down by her past. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 010, Chapter 079, Sub Scenario 2''</ref><br />
<br />
In the new world created by Ragna, Bullet returned to Sector Seven, being sent on a mission with Tager to Yabiko. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 012, Chapter 100''</ref><br />

''A female mercenary that travels across the world in search of missions. The handsome and almost noble scar on her face is a testament to the hardships she has seen in her life.<br />
<br />
''She has a frank and open-minded personality, not sweating the details – but that doesn’t mean to say she doesn’t have a heavy sense of duty and obligation.<br />
<br />
''Having grown up in a mercenary unit comprised of only men, she has a tendency to equate almost anything in everyday life to combat. Another reason for such behavior could be her utter lack of interest in matter unrelated to combat.<br />
<br />
''She was once hired by Sector Seven, but her unit was annihilated for reasons unknown during an extremely covert operation. As a result, she spends most of her time tracking down Kokonoe and Relius, the two scientists she believes knows the truth behind the incident. Her journey takes her to Ikaruga.<br />

'''Celica Ayatsuki Mercury''', sometimes known as the '''Sister''', was the younger sister of [[Nine the Phantom]]. She was an excellent user of [[Sorcery|sorcery]] and [[Magic|magic]], being one of the few people in existence capable of exceptional healing sorcery. After surviving through the [[Dark War]], Celica became a nun, looking after [[Ragna the Bloodedge]], [[Noel Vermillion]], and [[Saya]] before being brutally murdered by [[Yuuki Terumi]]. A copy of her soul when she was a young woman was made material by [[Kokonoe]].<br />
<br />
Celica has been the wielder of both the [[Nox Nyctores]] - [[Deus Machina: Nirvana]] and the [[Ex Machina: Minerva]]. She made her debut in ''[[BlazBlue: Phase 0]]'' before appearing in ''[[BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma]]''. Celica was made playable in ''[[BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma Extend]]'' and, as '''Little Sister''', is one of the main protagonists of ''[[XBlaze Lost: Memories]]''.<br />

==Biography==<br />
===Central Fiction===<br />
Jin was seriously injured from his fight against Ragna, and Celica tended to his wounds, staying close to his side. She did her best, but left to report to Kokonoe afterwards, bumping into Tsubaki and suggesting that she visit Jin to cheer him up. She was soon taken inside the Embryo with Minerva. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Episode 001, Chapter 002 – 003''</ref><br />
<br />
She found herself in [[Orient Town]] in the [[13th Hierarchical City of Kagutsuchi]] with Minerva. She came across a wanted poster of Ragna, and chirped to Minerva that they would find him and Kokonoe in the city. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Episode 002, Chapter 010, Sub Scenario 2''</ref> Through Celica’s direction, they ended up in [[Bascule]] where they met [[Naoto Kurogane]], he asked them for directions and described [[Raquel Alucard]] to them, although the young mage thought he was describing Rachel. They decided to travel together throughout the city. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 004, Chapter 026''</ref> She, Naoto, and Minerva were teleported to Ikaruga and heard Nine’s voice telling her to kill Izanami to claim her piece of the Azure. Worried for her sister, she immediately went to try and find her. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 005, Chapter 038''</ref><br />
<br />
Finally arriving at Yabiko, Celica explained to Naoto about Nine and the Dark War. She asked more about who Naoto was looking for, and began to realise that they may not be looking for the same person, and her own careless nature made her lose him in the crowds. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 007, Chapter 051''</ref> It took her a while to notice she had lost him, but she was soon enough distracted by finding Carl and Nirvana, the former with distorted memories. Because of said memories, Celica accidentally offended the young boy, and he ordered Nirvana to attack, but she relented as she, like Celica, knew the truth. Although upset that she had offended Carl once he left, she went on to try and find Naoto with Minerva reassuring her that she said nothing wrong. <ref>''BlazBlue: Story Mode, Episode 007, Chapter 054''</ref><br />
<br />
[[File:BlazBlue Central Fiction Story Mode 49.png|thumb|left|She finally found him]]In Kazamotsu, Celica found Ragna. Reunited, they travelled together to Yabiko to find Kagura, Noel, and Kokonoe. The young mage told him of her dream for everyone to be happy and they eventually found Yabiko together. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 009, Chapter 064''</ref> Celica went ahead to assess the situation of the people’s distorted memories of Ragna, only managing to get inside the branch because of Minerva’s directions. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 009, Chapter 065''</ref> Hibiki found her, and they went together to Kagura’s office <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 009, Chapter 065''</ref> – Kokonoe explained to her that she unable to find Celica because of the teleporter malfunctioning due to the mismatched coordinates of the Embryo. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 009, Chapter 067''</ref> She was upset with her niece’s decision to send Tager to capture Ragna. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 009, Chapter 069''</ref> She reunited with Ragna once he was brought back to the branch, and listened to Kokonoe’s explanation of the existence of the [[Corpus Sepulcro: Requiem]], also learning that Nine’s transformed her father’s workshop into her own. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 010, Chapter 078''</ref><br />
<br />
She was later part of the strike squadron sent to Nine’s workshop. Celica watched as her sister beat Jubei throwing him at her and the others. She listened to her explanation of the world, the [[Prime Field War]], and why she had created Requiem. Celica held Jubei as Ragna fought Nine, and rushed to her sister’s side when she was defeated. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 010, Chapter 081''</ref> Izanami arrived, and began assaulting the group and Celica watched as her sister used the [[Radiance of Extinguishment]] to activate Requiem and bind Izanami – she watched as her only sister died saving her, and was teleported out of the workshop using her sorcery to force Rachel into using hers, greatly reducing the time she had left in the world. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 010, Chapter 082''</ref><br />

''The person who raised Ragna, Jin and Saya. A gentle yet strict woman.''<br />
<br />
''She's one of the few pure sorcerers who is able to use magic without relying on seithr. She was tasked with protecting the area in which the Black Beast's fragments lay.

''Someone who doesn't belong in this timeline, a Chrono Phantasma.''<br />

''With Kushinada's Lynchpin as the key to activation, Kokonoe replicates her soul from the past, and binds it to a vessel in the present. As such, Celica does not show up on the Master Unit's or Takamagahara's records, which makes her 'un-Observable.'''<br />
<br />
''In her normal timeline, she would be attending the Mage's Guild's school. She's Nine's younger sister, one of the Six Heroes. She is unbelievably cheerful, and is optimistic in virtually every situation -- she also never backs down on a point, once she's made up her mind.''<br />
<br />
''She heads to Japan in search of her missing father, and meets Bloodedge along the way, which will end up changing her fate forever.''<br />
<br />
''Since birth, she was adept in the usage of healing magics, which is one of the reasons she is able to suppress the forces of the Boundary. Her ability to nullify seithr is perhaps nature's way of resisting its influence.''<br />

'''λ-No.11-''', commonly abbreviated as '''Lambda-11''' is a [[Murakumo Unit]] imitation and [[Boundary Interface Prime Field Device]] with [[Saya]] as her base. Originally designed by [[Relius Clover]], Lambda underwent a great deal of torture at the hands of scientists within the [[5th Hierarchical City of Ibukido]], eventually being rescued by [[Iron Tager]] and [[Kokonoe]] who sealed her [[soul]]. After being killed by [[Yuuki Terumi]] to save [[Ragna the Bloodedge]], Lambda was revived inside the [[Embryo]]<br />
<br />
Lambda originally appeared in ''[[BlazBlue: Continuum Shift]]'' as a playable character, but was absent for ''[[BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma]]''. She reappeared in its remake, ''[[BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma Extend]]'' onward.<br />

===Ikaruga Civil War===<br />
Lambda lay dead inside her coffin and was left inside Ibukido to rot next to [[Mu-12]] and [[Nu-13]]. Mu was rescued and adopted, and Nu was retrieved by the [[Novus Orbis Librarium]], leaving Lambda the only one left in the rubble. She was found by [[Iron Tager]] under the orders of [[Kokonoe]]. He took her back to [[Sector Seven]] before she began to rot, and Kokonoe managed to bring her back from her death, but refused to bring back her memories since they would be too painful. <Ref>''BlazBlue Material Collection, Iron Tager Short Story - Trust You''</ref><br />
<br />
===Central Fiction===<br />
Resurrected inside the [[Embryo]], Lambda lost the recollection of her death and her memories were altered to believe that [[Bullet]] had always been a member of Sector Seven. She still served under Kokonoe and became one of the [[chosen]]. She alerted Kokonoe to a change in seithr concentration within a distorted Kagutsuchi. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 002, Chapter 009''</ref> Kokonoe sent her inside the Embryo floating above Ibukido and retrieved her. Much later on, Lambda was reunited with Ragna and she helped him, [[Tsubaki Yayoi]], [[Hakumen]], [[Ex Machina: Minerva]], [[Jin Kisaragi]], [[Kagura Mutsuki]], Rachel, and Noel enter the Embryo’s frozen space-time. She held open the entrance by linking her Idea Engine to Tager’s. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 011, Chapters 088 – 089''</ref><br />
<br />
[[File:BlazBlue Central Fiction Movie Screenshot 05.png|thumb|right|Lambda’s happy life with her sisters]]Lambda watched Tager evaporate into seithr during Doomsday and had her data backed up by [[Es]] before she too disappeared. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 011, Chapter 091''</ref> Lambda was reborn in the new world created by Ragna the Bloodedge, becoming a nun alongside Noel. The two of them watched over Nu, who is currently in a catatonic state. They had a visit from Tsubaki and Makoto, offering them dinner that night. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 012, Chapter 100''</ref><br />

'''Azrael''' is an infamous criminal and mercenary who is well known for his absurd strength and thirst for blood. He has amassed many monikers in his career, such as '''Mad Dog''', '''Genocider''', and '''Deathbringer'''.<br />
<br />
He made his playable debut in ''[[BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma]]''.<br />
<br />
==Appearance==<br />
<br />
Azrael is a large, extremely muscular man with tanned skin and somewhat wavy, long blue hair. He has blood-red eyes, and his body is decorated in tattoos, the [[Enchant Dragunov]], and he has a blue goatee. Azrael doesn't wear a shirt, instead he wears am untied cream jacket over his shoulders held to his body by a small brown strap around his chest. The coat's inner lining is a royal purple and the same color lies on the end of his sleeves near two brown belts. There are small golden parts on the shoulders of said coat, and there are small brown lines running close to, but not on, the rims of it. He also wears white trousers held onto his body with two brown belts with golden buckles. His left leg has a black cover on it and his shoes have golden tips.<br />
<br />
==Personality==<br />
<br />
Battle - the only thing that truly matters to Azrael. All he lusts for is a foe who can rival his incredible strength and keep him entertained. This lust has brought him from battlefield to battlefield, finding himself unsatisfied with nearly every fight he has.<br />
<br />
His confidence borders on hubris as even allows some foes free hits on his body. In fights he can turn cruel as he will do whatever he can to goad his opponents into fighting him, taunting them over loved ones he may have killed or bringing harm to the people in the immediate area.<br />
<br />
In the rare moment he is not fighting, Azrael is not completely unreasonable. He has a great understanding of what he wants, and is noted to despise bullying as it is a fundamental core of his beliefs that the strong should fight the strong, and not the weak. <ref>''BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma, ''Teach Me More, Miss Litchi!'', Episode 4''</ref> Upon finally tasting defeat, Azrael accepted the feeling, admitting that it does not feel as bad as he had imagined.<br />
<br />
He avidly enjoys arm wrestling.<br />
<br />
==Biography==<br />
<br />
There are no details on Azrael's early life, and he has only been known in the records of war. At some point before the [[Ikaruga Civil War]], Azrael fought against the [[Novus Orbis Librarium]] and fought in single combat against [[Houichirou Hazuki]] - both survived, although Houichirou was able to repel the Mad Dog just by himself, becoming the only known person to have ever done so. <ref>''BlazBlue: Variable Heart, Chapter 12''</ref><br />
<br />
During the civil war, Azrael was a thorn in the sides of all combating parties - the NOL, [[Sector Seven]], and the [[Ikaruga Federation]]. During the [[Phenomena Weapon Dispossession Operation]], in 2193, Sector Seven sent a [[Bullet's Mercenary Squad|mercenary squad]] to retrieve the [[Nox Nyctores]] - [[Deus Machina: Nirvana]]. Azrael wiped out the squad, leaving a singular survivor, their captain, who was rebuilt into [[Iron Tager]]. Azrael sustained a scar from this encounter that would come back to haunt him.<br />
<br />
In 2197, Azrael was captured by Tager and [[Kokonoe]], who had collaborated with [[Kagura Mutsuki]]. He was hired by an unknown [[Committee]] member in Sector Seven to retrieve the [[Azure Grimoire]], but it was a setup by Kokonoe to lure him into an area where he could be captured. Despite eliminating many Sector Seven and NOL soldiers, he was still captured and detained in the [[Dog House]] after a fight with Tager where the latter struck at the scar he had caused years earlier. <ref>''BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma Extend, Story Mode, Kokonoe "Collisions", Chapters 7 - 9''</ref><br />
<br />
===Chrono Phantasma===<br />
<br />
Three years later, in the February of 2200, Azrael was released from his cryogenic cell on the presumed orders of [[Relius Clover]] and had a collar put around him by Sector Seven. He was given a mission by the committee to find the Azure Grimoire and to detain Kokonoe and Tager. The collar prevented him from being able to fight those who did not wish to fight him. He found Kokonoe in her lab and brushed off her brief assault, but was unable to capture her as she [[teleportation|teleported]] away, using the assault to buy time.<br />
<br />
Azrael would find [[Ragna the Bloodedge]] at some point, forcing him to activate his Azure Grimoire, but this battle was overwritten by the [[Phenomenon Intervention]] battle between [[Izanami]] and the [[Amaterasu Unit]].<br />
<br />
Later on, Azrael would find [[Bullet]], a member of the mercenary squad he had wiped out years before. The two fought, but Bullet realized she was vastly outmatched and fled. Azrael would continue his hunt, eventually finding Tager and [[Litchi Faye-Ling]] and chased them throughout the [[Downtown]] of the [[6th Hierarchical City of Yabiko]]. [[Nu-13]] arrived on orders to retrieve Litchi from Relius and the pair fought against their targets until Kagura was teleported there by Kokonoe to buy time. Unfortunately for Azrael, all three of his opponents managed to escape and he was left alone with Nu until [[Hazama]] arrived and openly mocked the both of them. In the [[Lakeside Port]] of the [[7th Hierarchical City of Kazamotsu]], Azrael found [[Hakumen]] and [[Celica A. Mercury]]. He fought Hakumen, a dream of his, but the two of them escaped after Celica's intervention.<br />
<br />
The [[Battle of Ragna the Bloodedge]] was set up to lure Azrael into Yabiko's [[Colosseum]] where he could be captured by Kokonoe and locked up again. He entered without warning, demolishing the other contestants before fighting Bullet. This fight was much more difficult than the last as Celica's presence made Bullet unable to use [[Ars Magus]], while Azrael's strength was completely unaffected. He broke several of her bones, one injury was even sustained by her just punching him. Aware she would die, Ragna leaped into the arena as Bullet was carried off to the infirmary. Azrael almost managed to make Ragna activate the Azure Grimoire, but the latter's self-control and a vision of his previous fight with Azrael helped him overcome it. The two fought some more until Kagura switched in after Azrael threw a massive attack at Celica (which was blocked by [[Rachel Alucard]] casually throwing [[Gii]] in the way).<br />
<br />
During his battle with Kagura, the Black Knight lost consciousness for just a second which stopped Azrael from continuing his incredible assault. Kagura figured out Azrael's weakness with his collar and created a delay that allowed Kokonoe to teleport him to a [[dimensional prison]], although not before teleporting him to Tager so the latter could throw in an attack for good measure.<br />
<br />
===Central Fiction===<br />
<br />
Even though he was in a different dimension, Azrael managed to physically tear his way out of it. He found himself now inside the [[Embryo]] and his memories were completely unaffected, unlike most of the [[chosen]] who resided inside it.<br />
<br />
Azrael became one of the chosen and fought against Ragna and Kokonoe, realizing they had lost their memories. He would later face against an illusion of Hakumen created by [[Nine the Phantom]] and would fight against her himself. She held back and told him to go to Ikaruga where he could fight against the chosen and Hades: Izanami herself.<ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Arcade Mode, Azrael, Act I''</ref> In Ikaruga, Azrael found Kagura, but he too had lost his memories. Azrael defeated him and later found Nu who had just defeated [[Bang Shishigami]]. They fought until Nu left when she detected a Nox Nyctores. Chasing after her, he later found Relius and they fought as well. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Arcade Mode, Azrael, Act II''</ref>At some point, Azrael had found [[Arakune]] and began dragging him across Ikaruga to consume the Nox Nyctores'.<br />
<br />
[[File:BlazBlue Central Fiction Azrael Arcade 04.png|thumb|left|The contract is established]]Izanami teleported him to her location and Azrael made clear his disgust with the Embryo. They both fought and Azrael had earned his piece of the [[Azure]], but rejected it. Azrael was tired of facing the same opponents and entered into a contract with Izanami - defeat the chosen and he would be granted access to fight the Gods of the world for all eternity. <ref>BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Arcade Mode, Azrael, Act III''</ref> By this time, most of the chosen's memories had been restored.<br />
<br />
Fulfilling his pact, Azrael chased down Ragna and Rachel. He mocked Rachel since she had lost most of her overwhelming power and fought Ragna, but he was unable to beat him as Ragna had begun to reach the peak of his strength. Satisfied and wanting him to grow more, Azrael willingly walked away without killing either of them. Azrael skulked around Ikaruga and followed Bullet, who had still yet to regain her memories. He openly taunted her over how he killed her squadron before launching a nasty blow on her. He lamented over Amaterasu's choice of who was chosen, and left Bullet alone, completely unsatisfied.<br />
<br />
In Kazamotsu, Azrael found Kagura and Jin after he was tipped off by Izanami and managed to rip his way into their frozen space-time. Using his strength alone, he shifted space so they were inside the Colosseum once more. He fought Kagura, who had managed to annoy him enough for him to unleash [[Enchant Dragunov]] to level 4, making him faster than the eye could see, but he was trapped by the combined efforts of [[Trinity Glassfille]] and Jin, who unleashed the [[Mucro Algesco: Yukianesa]] and froze him solid. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 11, Chapter 090''</ref><br />
<br />
Azrael's data was backed up by [[Es]], and he was restored in the new world created by Ragna after [[Doomsday]]. He was kept in the dog house once more, with Kokonoe keeping a constant watch over it at all times. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Epilogue''</ref><br />
<br />
==Powers & Techniques==<br />
<br />
Undoubtedly one of the strongest people to have ever existed. Azrael true strength is actually completely unknown, as he is forced to hide it under a limiter called Enchant: Dragunov in order for him to even attempt having a fair fight. His power is capped at 1/8th under usual circumstances, but he has been known to release it to 2/8th's and even 4/8th's depending on the circumstances. Azrael's [[Drive]] is '''The Terror''' - each time he hits an opponent with his Drive, he exposes a weak point and additional Drive hits cause greater damage.<br />
<br />
Even at his usual cap, Azrael's power almost denies physics. He can catch bullets in mid-air with his fingers and flick them back with an even stronger force and can break a man's shoulder by just placing his hand on it. His strength is so great that he can physically alter the space-time inside the Embryo and can tear through dimensions with his own hands. When releasing more of his limiters, Azrael can move faster than the eye can see. He refuses to use weapons and likes to fight using his body alone.<br />
<br />
Strength is not just Azrael's one gimmick, however, as he has unlimited endurance, being able to take explosions and, after being thawed out of ice, was only so bothered as if he had woken up from sleep. This is one of the few ways to stop him, however, as under extreme temperatures, the Mad Dog cannot move, and it is the only way to detain him. Sector Seven also installed a collar on him which prevented him from fighting those who did not wish to, but this was removed when he was put in his dimensional prison. As a result of his wild fighting style, he can struggle against those who are well-trained, but this is only effective against his usual cap, as removing more caps on his power easily allows him to beat said opponents.<br />
<br />
Azrael has fought against the likes of: Kagura Mutsuki, Hakumen, Ragna the Bloodedge, Valkenhayn R. Hellsing, Kokonoe, Nine the Phantom, Hades: Izanami, Nu-13, Rachel Alucard, Bullet, Iron Tager, and Houichirou Hazuki - he has not lost against one of them, drawing at best, and only being beaten by the combined efforts of Kagura and Jin Kisaragi.<br />

===Azrael===<br />
<br />
''A notorious criminal sealed away in Sector Seven's dimensional prison. He is more commonly known as the Mad Dog.<br />
<br />
''He is a hired gun, but for some reason has strength that seems to break the laws of physics as we know it. When on the battlefield, the odds of any survivors, friend or foe, is reduced to zero. He is a dangerous man. Genocider and Deathbringer are also names he has acquired from the terror he brings to the battlefield.<br />
<br />
''He may be violent and cruel, but most of his actions grounded in some form of strategy. Bloodthirst would be his fatal flaw, which is what brings him back to the battlefield time ad time again. He refuses to fight with anything other than his own flesh and blood, which is why we never see him with a weapon. Despite that, he must still hold back his strength to have somewhat fair fight.<br />
<br />
''On orders from the Committee to retrieve the Azure Grimoire, he heads to Ikaruga to carry out his mission... or rather, his hunting grounds.'' <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Library Mode, Character #024''</ref><br />

Second Lieutenant '''Makoto Nanaya''' is a soldier for the [[Novus Orbis Librarium]]. Originally a spy for [[Sector Seven]], Makoto was instrumental in the coup d'etat led by [[Kagura Mutsuki]] to enthrone [[Homura Amanohokosaka]]. As a squirrel-type [[Demi-Human|demi-human]], Makoto has faced racism and prejudice for most of her life, finding solace in her two closest friends - [[Noel Vermillion]] and [[Tsubaki Yayoi]].<br />
<br />
Makoto first appeared as an NPC in ''[[BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger]]'' and made her playable debut as the first DLC character for ''[[BlazBlue: Continuum Shift]]''.<br />

<br />
==Biography==<br />
Born to a large and poor family in the [[11th Hierarchical City of Shinatsu]], Makoto has faced countless amounts of prejudice in her life because of her species, making her detest most humans for their behaviour. She entered the [[Military Academy]] so her family could have more money, and her parents, although proud, were worried about her entering. Makoto passed her examinations, and was soon accepted. <ref>'' BlazBlue: Continuum Shift, Teach Me, Miss Litchi! Episode 1 - Reunion! The three girls from the academy!''</ref> She personally knows [[Kagura Mutsuki]].<br />
<br />
===Military Academy===<br />
====Heart to Heart, Remix Heart, The BLUE====<br />
One week after meeting Noel and Tsubaki, Makoto met [[Mai Natsume]], becoming interested in her and becoming good friends. She went to the Ars Magus aptitude test which was presided over by [[Estella McKenzie]]; her physical abilities were noted to be exceptionally high but her ability to study was low. Makoto told Mai to not eat Noel’s dreaded cooking later that evening and watched as she not only went against her advice, but also enjoyed the “death dinner” that had been prepared – soon afterwards, she learnt of Mai’s super-taste ability and looked after her after she fainted in the changing rooms. Around this time, she met [[Kajun Faycott]], becoming good friends with her. <ref>''BlazBlue: Remix Heart, Chapter 01''</ref> The Torifune Festival soon came, and Makoto met [[Taro Sasagae]], and [[Akane Teruhiko]]. She stole Mai's first kiss, and helped Tsubaki try to win the festival's tournament, being confused when Kajun usurped her glory. <Ref>''BlazBlue: Remix Heart, Chapter 02''</ref> <br />
<br />
The girls would soon end up lost in Torifune's lower floors in an attempt to find watermelons. They were choked by a thick cloud of [[seithr]], and sought refuge in a nearby mansion where they were attacked by a mutated watermelon. Makoto, Noel, Tsubaki, and Kajun were saved by Mai, and they found the [[Evolution Grimoire]]. Afterwards, they decided to name themselves [[Team Remix Heart]]. <Ref>''BlazBlue: Remix Heart, Chapter 03''</ref> Spring cleaning was ordered by Estella days afterwards, and Remix Heart dedicated themselves to cleaning their professor's room, only to discover a hidden room with numerous frilly dresses - Makoto tried some on, giving Noel some bra padding. They discovered the [[Ammit Cryas]] [[Grimoire]], handing it over to Estella, but being issued the maximum penalty - a full course of Noel's cooking. <ref>''BlazBlue: Remix Heart, Chapter 04''</ref> When the time for the sports festival arrived, Makoto led Team Remix Heart with her formidable strength, being protected by Noel and Tsubaki when she was flanked by other participants; the girls discovered that they would have to find the [[Conversion Grimoire]], and journeyed lower into Torifune to do so. <Ref>''BlazBlue: Remix Heart, Chapter 05''</ref> They found themselves in a desert, and Makoto fell into a lion ant pit; she was saved by Mai's quick thinking. The actions of the group earned the praise of the [[Guardian]], who gave them the Conversion Grimoire after a small test, and the girls returned back to the higher levels only to discover that they had come last place. <Ref>''BlazBlue: Remix Heart, Chapter 06''</ref><br />
<br />
Thanks to Taro, Makoto, Remix Heart, and Jin were all sent hurtling towards a beach when Torifune's weather system had broken down. Using [[Golden Angel]] supplied by Kajun, Makoto swam in the sea, finding the [[Regulation Grimoire]]. The girls fixed it, and restored Torifune's weather. <ref>''BlazBlue: Remix Heart, Chapter 07''</ref> With Tsubaki, Kajun, and Noel, Makoto found Mai unconscious, being stuck in a dream created by the [[Hypnagogia Grimoire]]. She battled against a weak version of [[Hakumen]] accidentally created by Tsubaki, and Mai saw a vision of her in the future within the dream before finally waking up. <ref>''BlazBlue: Remix Heart, Chapter 08''</ref> When Mai lost her memories, the only way to restore them was to taste the tears of those close to her - Makoto supplied her own by crying when yawning, becoming happy with having helped. <ref>''BlazBlue: Remix Heart, Chapter 09''</ref><br />
<br />
In an attempt to find the [[Azure Grimoire]], Remix Heart travelled to the lower levels of Torifune, and used several Grimoire that they had stolen from the Academy to do so. They cleared a cooking trial, but became separated from Mai when a fissure swallowed her up. <Ref>''BlazBlue: Remix Heart, Chapter 10''</ref> Makoto passed the laundry trial with the remaining girls before finally finding Mai near the [[Aedsqui Grimoire]] - they returned to the higher levels. <ref>''BlazBlue: Remix Heart, Chapter 11''</ref> Makoto learned about Mai becoming the [[Intermediary Grimoire]], and later met [[Shiori Kirihito]] and [[Chachakaka]]. <ref>''BlazBlue: Remix Heart, Chapter 12''</ref> She was introduced to the former, falling for her lies of being frail. Jin, Akane, and Taro were bedridden, and Makoto helped to look after them with the other girls. <ref>''BlazBlue: Remix Heart, Chapter 13''</ref> She watched Noel and Shiori work together to make porridge for the boys, calling out Taro when he ate Jin's and not his own. <ref>''BlazBlue: Remix Heart, Chapter 14''</ref> She watched as Jin went berserk with his [[Nox Nyctores]] - the [[Mucro Algesco: Yukianesa]] and as he was knocked out by [[Seifer Albar]]. <ref>''BlazBlue: Remix Heart, Chapter 15''</ref> As she was involved in this incident, Makoto helped watch over the giant icebergs that were created, and cheered on Shiori in a contest for eating shaved ice, also being assaulted by a [[Torifune panda]]. <ref>''BlazBlue: Remix Heart, Chapter 17''</ref><br />
<br />
While having lunch with Team Remix Heart, [[Carl Clover]] visited them, and Makoto warned him to not try any of Noel's cooking. She prepared her for her date with Taro, painting her nails for the occasion. <ref>''BlazBlue: Remix Heart, Chapter 18''</ref> She later berated him for turning up late to Mai's date. <Ref>''BlazBlue: Remix Heart, Chapter 19''</ref> Remix Heart was soon split for survival training, with Makoto being paired with Tsubaki and Noel. They reunited with Shiori, Kajun, and Mai when they found the main body of the [[mountain jellyfish]], and managed to not only defeat it, but come first place in the training exercise. <ref>''BlazBlue: Remix Heart, Chapter 21''</ref> Mai was knocked unconscious and Makoto helped gather up the strongest Ars Magus users to help save her under Seifer's orders. It was a trap set by Seifer himself, and she and the rest of Team Remix Heart had their Ars Magus aptitude stripped away from them until they were saved by Chachakaka. Makoto learned through the Ammit Cryas that Mai was originally a man. <ref>''BlazBlue: Remix Heart, Chapter 22''</ref> Mai saved the group from being crushed by an [[alchemy]] barrier, and Seifer told them all of his plan to create a [[Burning Red Grimoire]]. He briefly battled Mai, and Makoto managed to hug her while the fight had paused, recognizing how hard it was for her living with the secret. <ref>''BlazBlue: Remix Heart, Chapter 23''</ref> When Mai and Shiori were teleported away by the professor, Makoto listened to Jin and helped to round up the best Ars Magus users in the Academy to foil Seifer's plans - they succeeded. <ref>''BlazBlue: Remix Heart, Chapter 24''</ref> She spent the rest of her first year messing around, and getting into trouble in her classes with Estella. <ref>''BlazBlue: Remix Heart, Chapter 25''</ref><br />
<br />
In her second year, Makoto was invited to the [[2nd Hierarchical City of Iwatsuchi]] for Jin's medal ceremony as he had just ended the [[Ikaruga Civil War]]. Kagura attempted to flirt with her and the other girls with her (Mai, Noel, and Tsubaki) but she swiftly knocked him out, only to be met by [[Hibiki Kohaku]], who promptly put them to work on preparing the celebration. <Ref>''BlazBlue: Variable Heart, Chapter 01''</ref> Kajun, Mai, and Shiori all left the Academy that year. She was later seen revising with Noel and Tsubaki over the Nox Nyctores and the [[Dark War]], and Makoto admitted that she did not know too much on either subject. She soon discovered that Noel was to graduate six months early, and she spent the remainder of her time at the Academy with Tsubaki. <ref>''BlazBlue Material Collection, Noel Vermillion Short Story - The BLUE''</ref><br />
<br />
===Central Fiction===<br />
With Tager and Hibiki, Makoto listened to an explanation of events that had happened in the last few months from Kagura and Kokonoe. She became confused over Ragna’s alliance as he had injured Noel and Jin after he was forced to go berserk by Izanami. She was eventually absorbed into the Embryo, having her memories altered and believing that the date was 12/31/2199, and that Kagura was now the Hero of Ikaruga. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 001, Chapter 002''</ref><br />
<br />
Inside the Embryo’s version of Kagutsuchi, Makoto found Kagura hitting on another woman, so she punched him. She was paired with Noel to find Ragna and capture him <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 002, Chapter 012''</ref>, but went on a tangent, meeting Kagura in the Kagutsuchi museum and jammed all radio signals as Hazama was lurking in the area. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 003, Chapter 017''</ref> Before heading back to her original mission, Relius had found her and began commenting on her soul. Makoto ran, scared of the puppeteer, and found herself in [[Orient Town]]. She contacted Kagura to warn him of the man she had just met. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Episode 003, Chapter 018, Sub Scenario 1''</ref> She later heard rumours that Noel had fought the Grim Reaper. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 004, Chapter 23''</ref> She was later transported to Ikaruga by [[Nine the Phantom]] and told to defeat Izanami to claim her piece of the [[Azure]]. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 005, Chapter 036''</ref> She found Tsubaki, but was attacked by her friend as her memories began to confuse her. Makoto managed to repel her and retreated until Tsubaki had regained her composure. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 006, Chapter 044''</ref><br />
<br />
Makoto was ordered by Kokonoe to detain Ragna, and she found him in Yabiko. They battled, but Makoto lost, and was the first of the chosen to have their desires taken by Ragna’s Soul Eater. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 009, Chapter 070''</ref> She was later deployed to find [[Naoto Kurogane]] and to persuade him into the frozen space-time – she succeeded and they landed outside of Ikaruga before venturing to find Noel and the others. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 011, Chapter 090''</ref><br />
<br />
Naoto and Makoto ran into [[Es]] when the demi-human lost her qualification as one of the chosen, and her data was backed up when she rejected the Azure, instead claiming that she wishes to protect the people she loves with her own power, not one she does not understand. She ordered Naoto to run and find the others while Makoto fought Es by herself, being defeated and visited by [[Amane Nishiki]], who came to see her off as she dissolved into seithr. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Episode 011, Chapter 092''</ref><br />
<br />
In the new world created by Ragna, Makoto is a part of the NOL in an infantry division. Alongside Tsubaki, she visited Noel and Lambda at their church, and had dinner with them, extending an invitation from Kagura for Noel to return to the NOL at any time. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 012, Chapter 100''</ref><br />

'''Iron Tager''', also known as '''TR-0009 Tager''' or the '''Red Devil''', is an agent of [[Sector Seven]], infamous for his color and stature. Despite his appearance, Tager is much more gentle and intelligent than one would initially believe, and he is infinitely loyal to [[Kokonoe]]. In his life before becoming the Red Devil, Tager was the captain of [[Bullet's Mercenary Squad]].<br />
<br />
Tager debuted as one of the original twelve playable characters in ''[[BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger]]''.<br />

<br />
==Biography==<br />
<br />
===Ikaruga Civil War===<br />
====Trust You, Collisions, Determination, that which is inherited, Remix Heart====<br />
When Tager awoke, he was no longer in Naobi, but a lab within Sector Seven. He looked to his side and saw [[Kokonoe]], and he was unable to remember much of his memories. She gave him his new name "Tager", having made it up on the spot, and told him of his new body being a mix between machinery and Demon cells. He stared into a mirror, attempting to comprehend his appearance. At some point afterwards, he personally requested that Kokonoe seal away every single memory he had, so he wouldn't have to remember his squad being massacred.<br />
<br />
Tager's first mission was to find [[Boundary Interface Prime Field Device|Boundary Interface Prime Field Device's]] deep inside the [[5th Hierarchical City of Ibukido]], one of which was the missing Nu-13. Upon his arrival, he briefly saw a [[Yuuki Terumi|green shadow]] but dismissed it, and ventured deeper into a lab. Three caskets were present, one for [[Mu-12]], Nu, and [[Lambda-11]], with the last being the only one with a specimen still within. He took Lambda away from the facility, quickly returning to Sector Seven as the Prime Field was already deceased and would begin to rot after long. <Ref>''BlazBlue Material Collection, Iron Tager Short Story - Trust You''</ref> He encountered several [[Novus Orbis Librarium]] troops on his way, but managed to defeat them, starting the legend of the "Red Devil". <ref>''BlazBlue Material Collection, Nu-13 Short Story - an evil sign''</ref><br />
<br />
In 2196, Kokonoe sent [[Kajun Faycott]] to the [[15th Hierarchical City of Torifune]] to find the [[Burning Red Grimoire]], hoping that she could use it to further power up Tager. The mission was unsuccessful, however, and he was powered by an [[Artificial Causality Phenomenon Weapon]] instead. <ref>''BlazBlue: Remix Heart, Chapter 25''</ref> Later that year, Kokonoe had discovered [[Hakumen]] deep within the Boundary and began to prepare for a salvage operation with Tager's assistance. <ref>''BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger - Part 2, Chapter 1 - Orient Town''</ref> <br />
<br />
===Variable Heart===<br />
A year afterwards, Tager was teleported to the [[11th Hierarchical City of Shinatsu]] to protect Kokonoe, Kajun, [[Taro Sasagae]], [[Litchi Faye-Ling]], and [[Shiori Kirihito]] from a group of [[Fuzzy]]. <ref>''BlazBlue: Variable Heart, Chapter 15''</ref><br />
<br />
===Calamity Trigger===<br />
Kokonoe deployed Tager to the [[13th Hierarchical City of Kagutsuchi]]. There he set several devices across the [[Hierarchical City]] that were designed to interfere with Hakumen for the salvage operation. After Kokonoe attempted to use [[Phenomenon Intervention]] to retrieve the Hero, Tager was sent on a mission to retrieve all the devices he had deployed since Kokonoe did not want to detonate them. His secondary objective was to go towards the [[Sheol Gate]] to watch a certain event.<br />
<br />
At the cauldron, Tager protected [[Ragna the Bloodedge]] from a fatal blow by [[Yuuki Terumi]]. He grabbed the [[Geminus Anguium: Ouroboros]] and deflected the attack. He noticed that the cauldron was set to detonate and evacuated under Kokonoe's orders - he was reassured by [[Rachel Alucard]] that both Ragna and [[Noel Vermillion]] would be safe since she would teleport them out herself. <Ref>''BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger - Part 2, Chapter 5 - Calamity Trigger, Successor to the Azure''</ref><br />
===Central Fiction===<br />
Alongside Kokonoe and Makoto, Tager was taken by Hibiki into a meeting with Kagura, where he explained the events of the last few months. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 001, Chapter 002''</ref> Tager, like everyone else, was absorbed into the [[Embryo]] floating above Ibukido, and his memories were altered so that he believed the date was the 12/31/2199, and that Bullet had always been a part of Sector Seven. <br />
<br />
He was deployed alongside Bullet to Kagutsuchi inside the Embryo to find the Azure Grimoire. He was found by Litchi, who asked him if he was hunting for Arakune, and the two parted ways on friendly terms, believing that they had not seen each other for years due to their altered memories <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 002, Chapter 010, Sub Scenario 1''</ref> later finding her battling against Noel in [[Roningai]] – they both escaped from the lieutenant. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 003, Chapter 16''</ref> Tager eventually found Ragna at the [[Monorail]] and began fighting him to delay time for the arrival of NOL soldiers and Kagura. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 003, Chapter 021''</ref> <br />
<br />
He was later transported to Ikaruga by [[Nine the Phantom]] and told to kill Izanami to claim his piece of the [[Azure]]. He contacted Kokonoe and was told to rendezvous at Yabiko, and if possible, secure Noel. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 005, Chapter 036, Sub Scenario 1''</ref> He found Arakune in Kazamotsu, but retreated after he was attacked as the monster’s power had substantially increased since the last time they fought. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 005, Chapter 038, Sub Scenario 2''</ref> Tager also found Hakumen and was ordered to bring him in by Kokonoe, although he struggled to, and relented after Hakumen began mocking him, calling him a puppet, not a devil <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 006, Chapter 042, Sub Scenario 1''</ref> He would soon make it to Yabiko and discussed the compared his distorted memories to Kagura, Kokonoe, and Hibiki’s. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 006, Chapter 049''</ref> <br />
<br />
Bullet eventually managed to make contact with Tager and they met in Yabiko. He told her to not pursue Arakune, but she still went out of her way to, and several memories came back the Red Devil over her. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 007, Chapter 053, Sub Scenario 1''</ref> Mai and Noel would arrived thanks to Kagura – Tager and Mai had not spoken for some time and both found enjoyed the reunion. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 007, Chapter 055''</ref> In Akitsu, Tager found Litchi near its cauldron and discovered that Arakune is not Roy, but merely a vessel he created. The cyborg told the doctor to stop, to consider all of the people who would mourn her if she failed to bring him back. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 008, Chapter 062, Sub Scenarion 2''</ref> He was later ordered to return to Yabiko and detain Ragna. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 009, Chapter 068''</ref> He did not manage to complete this objective, and instead created several teleportation coordinates for Kokonoe to use so multiple people could travel to Japan.<br />
<br />
[[File:BlazBlue Central Fiction Story Mode 57(A).png|thumb|right|A meeting with his former subordinate]]Bullet called out for Tager to meet her in the Colosseum. There she confronted him, all her memories returned, about him being the captain of her mercenary squad. Tager revealed to her that all his memories of that life had been sealed away and he was no longer that man. They fought, one last request from his former subordinate, and he lost to her. He watched as Bullet took her own path in life, no longer having the past weigh her down. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 010, Chapter 079, Sub Scenario 2''</ref> The following morning, he was part of the strike squadron sent to Nine’s workshop, where he monitored the control systems. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 010, Chapter 081''</ref><br />
<br />
He was evacuated out of the area and journeyed to [[Celica A. Mercury’s Church]] where he set up a teleporter that was to be activated the following morning. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 010, Chapter 08''</ref> He witnessed Celica’s death before teleporting everyone out of the area. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 010, Chapter 087''</ref> Tager later helped Lambda with organising the coordinates for everyone’s arrival in the frozen space-time of the Embryo. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 011, Chapter 089''</ref> During the Doomsday, Tager evaporated into seithr, his data backed up by [[Es]]. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 011, Chapter 091''</ref><br />
<br />
In the new world created by Ragna, Tager was seen in Yabiko on a mission with Bullet, who had returned to Sector Seven. He was on the phone to Kokonoe. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 012, Chapter 100''</ref><br />

===TR-0009 Tager===<br />
''A cyborg warrior who works under the jurisdiction of sector seven. From his appearance, he gained the nickname, ‘Red devil.’<br />
<br />
''He used to be a military man, but after becoming gravely wounded during the Ikaruga Civil War, Kokonoe retrieved his body and rebuilt it into the cyborg that he is today. Thanks to combining his devil-like cells with a transplanted replica of Nirvana’s core, his life is spared, but not his memory. The devil-like cells also have an effect on his appearance.<br />
<br />
''Contrary to his outward appearance, he is gentle and honest. When it comes to missions, he is loyal and versatile, making him Kokonoe’s instant favorite to carry out her orders. In addition to tracking the escaped Hakumen in Kagutsuchi, he retrieved Noel after she became the Eye of the Azure. Kokonoe would be at a loss without his prowess.<br />
<br />
''After bringing Noel and makoto to Sector Seven HQ, he is dispatched by Kokonoe to Ikaruga… for his next mission.<ref>''BlazeBlue: Central Fiction, Library Mode, Character #006''</ref><br />

Professor '''Kokonoe Mercury''' is a leading member of [[Sector Seven]] and the daughter of the [[Six Heroes]] [[Jubei]] and [[Nine the Phantom]]. She is an accomplished scientist and helped organize the coup d'etat to put [[Homura Amanohokosaka]] on the throne of the [[Novus Orbis Librarium]]. Kokonoe is nearly always seen communicating with [[Iron Tager]].<br />
<br />
Kokonoe first appeared as an NPC in ''[[BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger]]'' and was made playable as the second DLC character for ''[[BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma]]''.<br />

====Spiral Shift, Remix Heart, Collisions, Determination, The Rat, that which is inherited, Trust You====<br />
<br />
With the success of the operation to retrieve Nirvana, Kokonoe took in the captain of the squadron who was barely alive from his encounter with Azrael. She performed multiple operations on him, and found that he was a compatible match with [[Demon|demon cells]]. Elated, she injected him with them, and used cybernetics to replace what did not regenerate. When the captain finally awoke, Kokonoe christened him "[[Iron Tager]]", a name she had just invented at that moment, and took some code to help him move smoothly, not taking notice of his reactions to her beastkin heritage. Kokonoe kept experimenting on Tager with the pretext that she was searching for a way to return him back to how he previously was. <br />
<br />
Before long, she deployed Tager to Ibukido with the objective of retrieving the Prime Field within one of the laboratories. [[Lambda-11]] was retrieved and Tager immediately returned back to Sector Seven after Kokonoe warned him of her rotting if left too long. <ref>''BlazBlue Material Collection, Iron Tager Short Story - Trust You''</ref><br />
<br />
In 2196, upon learning that the [[Burning Red Grimoire]] was possibly within the [[15th Hierarchical City of Torifune]], Kokonoe deployed [[Kajun Faycott]] as an undercover spy to the academy. She later contacted her, telling her that readings of the [[Azure Grimoire]] had surfaced within the facility. <ref>''BlazBlue: Remix Heart, Chapter 10''</ref> Kajun later contacted Kokonoe, giving her a reading of a sample from an [[alchemy]] based creature. The two deduced that a [[Seifer Albar|former Sector Seven researcher]] was lurking within the facility. <ref>''BlazBlue: Remix Heart, Chapter 19''</ref> <br />
<br />
Kajun later contacted Kokonoe, reporting that both the incomplete Burning Red and the scientist had escaped. Kokonoe revealed that she had been planning to use the Grimoire to fuel Tager, resigning herself to finding an alternative. <ref>''BlazBlue: Remix Heart, Chapter 25''</ref> Sometime later that year, Kokonoe began to prepare for a salvage operation to retrieve [[Hakumen]], one of the Six Heroes, from the Boundary. <ref>''BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger - Part 2, Chapter 1 - Orient Town''</ref> She also outfitted Tager with an [[Artificial Causality Phenomenon Weapon]].<br />
<br />
===Variable Heart===<br />
With Litchi, Kokonoe travelled to the [[11th Hierarchical City of Shinatsu]]'s [[Hazuki]] estate. There, she launched a projectile at both [[Mai Natsume]] and [[Houichirou Hazuki]], managing to make the latter take a step-back. <ref>''BlazBlue: Variable Heart, Chapter 13''</ref> She offered Mai a choice - join her or be protected by her father <ref>''BlazBlue: Variable Heart, Chapter 14''</ref>; Mai chose her. The group, consisting of Mai, Kajun, Litchi, [[Bell]], [[Taro Sasagae]], and [[Shiori Kirihito]], travelled to the cauldron within Shinatsu since teleportation was not an option with such a large group. They were soon assaulted by a group of [[Fuzzy]], and Kokonoe teleported Tager to her location to help fight them off. Both Bell and Mai, however, were much deeper inside the facility than they were. <ref>''BlazBlue: Variable Heart, Chapter 15''</ref> In reality, Kokonoe had intended for the two girls to be bait while she had interacted with Kagura, urging him to send [[Jin Kisaragi]] to assist Mai in fighting Meifang and the vampires. Through an Ars, she communicated with Meifang and learned of her plan to recreate another [[Gigant: Take-Mikazuchi]] by smelting the [[No-Name Grimoire]] and Bell; Kokonoe was curious as to how this would work, but she was only met with threat from the colonel of the Zero Squadron. <Ref>''BlazBlue: Variable Heart, Chapter 16''</ref><br />
<br />
===Calamity Trigger===<br />
In the [[13th Hierarchical City of Kagutsuchi]], Tager followed Kokonoe's orders, placing various nodes across the [[Hierarchical City]] to retain Hakumen when he would appear. She interfered with the fight between Ragna the Bloodedge and the Hero, using [[Phenomenon Intervention]] against the latter. She continued to watch as Hakumen was defeated, and then secured him, transporting him back to Sector Seven. She asked Tager to retrieve all the nodes he had placed earlier since she did not wish to detonate them, and gave him the secondary objective of watching the events that were about to unfold next to the [[Sheol Gate]].<br />
<br />
Through Tager, Kokonoe saw that [[Yuuki Terumi]] was revived - the man who had killed her mother and corrupted Roy. She taunted him but the encounter was cut short as the cauldron was set to detonate, so Kokonoe relented and ordered Tager to retreat. <Ref>''BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger - Part 2, Chapter 5 - Calamity Trigger, Successor to the Azure''</ref><br />
<br />
===Central Fiction===<br />
Kokonoe gave an explanation of the events surrounding the last few months to Hibiki, Makoto, and Tager. Celica reported to her the details of Jin’s injuries – before long, Kokonoe noticed that Noel had been teleported out of the facility, but before she could act on it, she was absorbed into the Embryo. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 001, Chapter 002 – 006''</ref> Her memories were altered so that she never remembered salvaging Hakumen, reviving Celica, Lambda’s death, and also believed that Bullet had always been a member of Sector Seven. She too was forced to believe the date was 12/31/2199.<br />
<br />
Inside the Embryo, Kokonoe began searching for the Azure Grimoire, and deployed both Tager and Bullet to find it. Mai had volunteered to go down to assist in their mission, and Kokonoe gave her some data pertaining to her objectives, but warned her to not go near the Azure Grimoire whatsoever due to her state. Mai went to make the scientist coffee, reminding the latter of when she had Roy under her wing. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 003, Chapter 015, Sub Scenario 1''</ref> When Tager found Ragna, she asked him some questions, buying time for Kagura and an NOL squadron to arrive to apprehend him. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 003, Chapter 021''</ref><br />
<br />
Personally, Kokonoe made her way to Kagutsuchi, and stayed inside the NOL branch where Hibiki issued her a fake ID. She came because of the appearances of Celica, Hakumen, and [[Naoto Kurogane]] – the former two, to her distorted memory, should not be in the time-period, and the latter does not show up on any database. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 004, Chapter 023''</ref><br />
<br />
A massive phenomenon event occurred, forcing Kokonoe into Ikaruga where she heard the voice of her mother, Nine, calling her to kill Izanami and claim her piece of the Azure, Initially shook by hearing her voice, a voice she had not heard for over 85 years, she contacted Tager and began a rendezvous plan, making her way to Yabiko. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 005, Chapter 036, Sub Scenario 1''</ref> She received another call from Tager later on when he encountered Arakune; she initially ordered that he capture the monster, but after seeing that he had a compressed core of seithr in him, similar to a Nox, she ordered that he retreat as they had no new data on him. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 005, Chapter 038, Sub Scenario 2''</ref><br />
<br />
Tager found Hakumen wandering around Ikaruga. She asked him to come back to her laboratory so she could gather data, but he refused, telling her to find her own path <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 006, Chapter 042, Sub Scenario 1''</ref> Now in Yabiko, Kokonoe, Kagura, Hibiki, and Tager all discussed the differences in their memories. Again, she looked back on how Hakumen and Celica could still be in the timeline and how too many coincidences were lining up with one another. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 006, Chapter 049''</ref> Kagura came back with both Mai and Noel in tow, and the conversation continued. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 007, Chapter 055''</ref> Kokonoe later spent her time fixing the differences in data using her memories, now fully returned to her. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 008, Chapter 063, Sub Scenario 1''</ref><br />
<br />
In time, Celica returned to the Yabiko branch where Kokonoe was staying. She explained to her aunt that she was unable to find her due to her teleporter’s coordinates being distorted by the Embryo’s landscape. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 009, Chapter 067''</ref>, She found Celica’s memories unaffected by the Embryo and deployed Tager to tackle Ragna, knowing that he could be starting something serious. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 009, Chapter 069''</ref> Rachel later asked her to help with locating Ragna and she complied, finding him near Ibukido and bringing him back to Yabiko. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 010, Chapter 07''</ref> She performed maintenance on his arm and the Idea Engine. She warned him about the power he was using, and about Celica’s existence having the probability of disappearing at any moment. She explained to everyone about the hidden eleventh Nox Nyctores, the [[Corpus Sepulcro: Requiem]] and how she built Sector Seven’s headquarters over her mother’s workshop. It would not be long until both Jin and Jubei arrived to tell her that it would be impossible to break into the workshop through brute strength alone. Kokonoe realised this, knowing she could not use her blood to enter the workshop due to her beastkin heritage. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 010, Chapter 079''</ref> <br />
<br />
The following morning, Kokonoe was part of the strike squad sent to Nine’s workshop. Inside the workshop, Nine defeated Jubei and told the group her desire, about the world, the [[Prime Field War]], and why she created Requiem. She watched as her mother was defeated by Ragna and sent on her deathbed, understanding why as she opposed her mother’s ideals to create a new world. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 010, Chapter 081''</ref> Kokonoe defended Nine when Izanami arrived to kill them all, but had no choice but to watch her use the [[Radiance of Extinguishment]] and teleported out of the area after she watched her mother die – she was forced to leave her father behind in the area as well. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 010, Chapter 082''</ref><br />
<br />
Kokonoe arrived at her [[Celica A. Mercury’s Church|aunt’s church]], completely intact. She marvelled at it for half-an-hour before the others arrived, presumably because of the desynched time caused by Requiem. She soon left for Yabiko, handing Rachel a communicator in case anything should happen to Celica and Noel. Back at her lab, Kokonoe realised the only way to access the frozen space-time to save Jubei and destroy Requiem would be to take measurements from [[Naoto Kurogane]] <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 010, Chapter 084, Sub Scenario 1''</ref>. She teleported to his location in Ikaruga and battled him to take data measurements, but scared him off when she was unable to have him return to the laboratory. She teleported back and deployed Makoto to capture him. She did have enough measurements to form a hypothesis. <Ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story mode, Chapter 084, Sub Scenario 1''</ref><br />
<br />
With her hypothesis, Kokonoe gave her master plan to kill Izanami, destroy Requiem and save Jubei to a group consisting of Kagura, Lambda, Minerva, Ragna, Noel, Jin, Trinity, Hakumen, Tsubaki, Tager, and Rachel. An Embryo floated above Ikaruga, and they would enter it to venture to end up above the frozen space-time where Requiem existed. Tsubaki would create a [[Zanki Barrier]] to ignore phenomenon intervention, and Hakumen would cut through time to save Jubei. Furthermore, Kagura would deal with Azrael, Ragna and Rachel with Terumi, Lambda and Tager with coordinates, Minerva with Requiem’s destruction, and Noel with Izanami. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 011, Chapter 088 – 089''</ref> Her plan fell apart, however, when Izanami managed to scatter the group across the space-time and took Requiem, transporting it elsewhere. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 011, Chapter 090''</ref><br />
<br />
Makoto succeeded in her mission, and Kokonoe deployed both her and Naoto into the frozen space-time to back up the others. She heard of Kagura and Jin’s success in defeating Azrael. She was visited by [[Es]], who backed up her data and told her that the Doomsday was still commencing. Kokonoe contacted Ragna and Noel afterwards, knowing that Requiem was now destroyed and Izanami absorbed, warning Noel to be careful with what she remembers, and ordering them to find the Amaterasu Unit and send it back into the Boundary so a new possibility can be born. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 011, Chapters 090 – 091''</ref><br />
<br />
Almost immediately after Es left, Kokonoe began evaporating into seithr. She created a backup of herself using accumulated data and Sector Seven’s remaining energy. The backup guided the remainder of the group after [[Susano’o]] was reborn, and passed on all the data it could to Trinity. She told Jubei to apologize for his parenting to the real Kokonoe, and not the backup, in the next world. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 011, Chapter 092''</ref><br />
<br />
In the new world created by Ragna, Kokonoe gave assistance to Tager and Bullet on a mission in Yabiko. She kept watch over the Dog House where Azrael slept. <ref>''BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Story Mode, Episode 012, Chapter 100''</ref><br />
