Albina

Story Prior to Limbus Company At some point in time, Albina cut up her body and transformed it into her weapon "Fascia", replacing everything but (most of) her brain with a full-body prosthetic.[1] She also began studying Corporism art under Callisto.[2]

Canto IX: The Unsevering Albina assisted the House of Spiders members in their raid on the Limbus Company HQ. As Dante, Ryōshū, Gregor, Meursault, and Yi Sang entered the LCE laboratory in search of the Golden Boughs Dante had sensed nearby, they ran into the Pinky Nursefather, Shiomi Yoru. Albina would step into battle against the Sinners alongside Ren, the Pinky apprentice, distracting them as Shiomi Yoru took the grafted Boughs with her. Partway through the battle, half of Albina's armor slipped off, and she began insisting on a chance to let her weapon feast on the Sinners. When she refused to back down after Ren insisted that they stick to their masters' plans, he would strike her with his own weapon. This confusion allowed Ryōshū to approach where the Boughs were, only to find that they'd already been taken. After Ren had another brief exchange with Ryōshū, he continued his squabble with Albina, giving the Sinners the chance to go after Shiomi Yoru and the Boughs.

Later during Limbus Company's retaliative raid against the House of Spiders, Albina was sent by Callisto to "greet" Sinclair, Faust, Ishmael, Alyssa and Hohenheim, who had reached the Corridor of the Ring inside Limbus Company's Backdoor portal. She approached them in a calm and disturbingly amiable manner, opening up about the challenges of learning Corporism and mentioning how she had to cut her own arm in the process. She also expressed her desire to get to know them better and to become "friends", though with the purpose of using them as ingredients for her art. Sinclair vehemently denied her request, and a battle struck up between the two factions.

As the confrontation progressed, Callisto eventually joined the battle alongside his apprentice. He would manage to overwhelm the members of Limbus Company, and despite some successful struggles from the LCB and LCD, Callisto and Albina eventually cornered their opponents entirely. Watching eagerly as Callisto prepared to take Hohenheim's life, Albina mentioned prospects of the future, unknowingly giving Sinclair the push to fully awaken to his Sign and manifest a future version of himself. This Sinclair destroyed Fascia, leaving Albina distraught, before Albina herself was also crushed into pieces shortly after.

Trivia Albina is a given name derived from the Latin word albus, meaning "white" or "bright". Albina's greatsword, Fascia, is likely named after the anatomical term. Within the body, Fascia is a fibrous connective tissue that wraps around and supports various internal structures such as muscles, skeletal structures, nerves, and organs. Fascia's design references this, as the weapon appears to be made of flesh and bones that hold it together beneath the surface. Albina's combat skill 'Repressed Flesh' shares its name with a combat page used by Jae-heon's Puppets in Library of Ruina; while lacking any true connection, Jae-heon and the Corporists both make use of human corpses to craft manikins.
