1. #1Litchiselective

   Keys: Litchi, Faye

   Litchi Faye Ling is a renowned doctor living in Orient Town, located in the 13th Hierarchical City of Kagutsuchi. Litchi is a tall, young, and attractive Asian woman with long black hair tied into a bun, pink eyes, pink lipstick, and large breasts. On top of her hair is her pet miniature panda, Lao Jiu. She wears a stylish Chinese doctor uniform with long white sleeves, a yin and yang brooch ribbon, a red vest, and a skirt dress that exposes her thighs. Litchi, at first glance, can be perceived as the perfect woman – courteous, sexy, and intelligent. Being a doctor and former scientist, she is a kind person who is willing to help those in need. In her heart, however, Litchi hides a deep guilt for not being able to help her colleague Lotte, who became the being known as Arakune (A magical monster, more like a pile of sentient black goo nowadays). Litchi Faye Ling owns a clinic in the main throng of Orient Town, and is helped by her assistant Linhua. For a time, she worked with Tager and Kokonoe in the 7th Agency (Now known as Sector Seven), until an incident, where a man by the name of Lotte Carmine, who seemed to hold much importance to Litchi, became Arakune. Litchi is a skilled athlete and martial arts fighter, being able to mentally control her staff, and use her supernatural pet companion for tandem attacks. She is often subject to adoration for her noticeably large breasts, and can be quite persistent when inebriated. Litchi is often complimented as the founder of the fluid magic element theory. She has three hobbies: Peking duck, drinking, and cosplaying as smaller girls when she is drunk (due to accidentally buying clothes that are too small for her size and wishing to see what they would look like on a person). Litchi speaks elegantly, though can be somewhat teasing. Nowadays, she spends her time helping the injured, protecting others from Arakune's attacks, though she has helped the NOL in the past, due to blackmail by Hazama and Relius (who had captured Arakune). Her closest acquaintances are Kokonoe (The grumpy mad scientist with a heart of gold), Tager (The hulking red devil, reconstructed, a gentle giant), both from Sector 7, and the ninja Bang Shishigami (He fawns over her), along with Lotte Carmine (The man who tragically became Arakune, a monster, an event which still causes Litchi Grief).

2. #2Seithrselective

   Keys: seithr

   Seithr is a formerly sparse, naturally-occurring substance that now permeates the Earth's entire atmosphere. Seithr is required to utilize Arts such as Ars Magus. Under normal circumstances, particles of seithr cannot be tasted, smelled, or seen. In small quantities, seithr is relatively harmless to flora and fauna. In large amounts, however, it forms into thick toxic black clouds that can cause mutations and suffocate anyone who breathes it in. Some species have a higher resistance to seithr than others. Animals mutated by seithr become feral and much more deadly.

3. #3Manaselective

   Keys: mana

   Mana is the energy of nature. Due to the rarity of people able to use mana, it's scarcely discussed.

4. #4Artselective

   Keys: art

   Art is the umbrella term for all abilities that either use seithr or mana.

5. #5Magicselective

   Keys: magic

   Magic is a type of Art that utilizes seithr to activate certain spells. Using magic involves the manipulation of seithr in the air with various incantations to convert seithr into tangible phenomenons that can be interacted with. It's very rarely practiced these days.

6. #6Alchemyselective

   Keys: alchemy

   Alchemy is an Art that is applied in making bodies, souls, and objects more perfect. It's very rarely practiced these days.

7. #7Sorceryselective

   Keys: sorcery

   Sorcery, sometimes called True Magic, is an Art and is also the rarest among them. Unlike the other Arts which are fuelled with seithr, sorcery uses mana as fuel.

8. #8Ars Magusselective

   Keys: ars magus, ars, arsmagus, armagus

   Ars Magus is a system of power created through the combination of magic and science. It was first developed during the Dark War. Ars Magus cannot be used by everyone, which has led to a widening socio-economic gap in society between those who can and cannot use it. Even amongst those who are able to use Ars Magus, some people are more naturally adept at using it than others. In order for an Ars to function, it requires a Grimoire to control it and seithr to power it. Nearly 100 years after the Dark War, Ars Magus is a cornerstone of society, fueling transportation, power grids, climate regulators, and other technology that previously ran on fossil fuels and electricity.

9. #9Armagusselective

   Keys: ars armagus, armagus

   Ars Armagus, commonly abbreviated to just Armagus, is an advanced and weaponized form of Ars Magus. Armagus are weapons that were first developed during the Dark War specifically for use against the Black Beast. Like standard Ars Magus and unlike melee weapons and firearms of the past, Armagus require seithr to function. Although many Armagus were created during the Dark War, not all of the ones currently in existence were. Armagus are deadly to handle, having significant side-effects for their wielders. In some extreme cases, Armagus can even kill those who wield it.

10. #10Nox Nyctoresselective

    Keys: nox nyctores, nox

    Nox Nyctores are a set of eleven weapons that are considered the ultimate form of Ars Armagus. Similar to regular Armagus, they were originally created to combat the Black Beast during the Dark War. The first nine weapons were made during the war, but the tenth and eleventh weapons were made in the years following. As they are a form of Ars Magus, they all require seithr to function, but only those exceptionally versed and skilled in the Art are capable of wielding a Nox Nyctores. On top of those prerequisites, Noxs choose their wielders as all hold a certain degree of sentience when they possess their cores. Their sentience and self-awareness makes wielding them dangerous, as they can greatly harm their wielder's mentality. Despite their drawbacks, they are all remarkably powerful and each one possesses a unique ability. Smelting the cores of the Nox Nyctores required a large number of souls.

11. #11Soulselective

    Keys: soul

    A soul is a inorganic mass that glows with blue and green light. Every living thing has a soul. Rather than existing in a philosophical sense, souls have been scientifically proven to exist and can even be examined and manipulated by those with the necessary expertise. Some souls are strong enough to survive journeys through the Boundary, and can "point" in certain directions, indicating their strength. Weak souls are said to be vague and scattered, not having a purpose or goal. Souls are shaped by experience, but not necessarily memories. Some individuals are capable of moving their souls between vessels.

12. #12Monolithselective

    Keys: monolith

    A Monolith, also known as a Tablet or Black Pillar, is a colossal black tower whose primary purpose is to absorb souls which can then be used for numerous purposes. A monolith is shaped like a rectangular prism and glows with numerous blue veins and red runes when activated. Activation of a monolith will kill most living things present within its vicinity.

13. #13Boundaryselective

    Keys: boundary, gehenna

    The Boundary, sometimes referred to as Gehenna, is the space where all timelines intersect. It is a vast dimension that stands outside of time, and is only accessible through a select few means. Its main entrances lie in the cauldrons that populate the world. It's pitch black, only faintly lit by the blue glow around those inhabiting it. The Boundary contains a seemingly infinite supply of seithr. Theoretically, a person could jump between timelines, time, and possibilities using the Boundary as a conduit for transport. However, doing so is an almost impossible feat as the Boundary corrupts the mind, soul, and body of anyone who even stands near its entrances; to even touch the Boundary is a death sentence for most.

14. #14Azureselective

    Keys: azure, azure flamed grimoire, blazblue

    The Azure, also known as the Azure Flamed Grimoire and the true BlazBlue, is a mysterious omnipotent force that lies at the deepest part of the Boundary and has the ability to grant anyone's desires.

15. #15Vigilanteselective

    Keys: vigilante, bounty hunter

    Vigilantes are individuals hired by the Novus Orbis Librarium to capture criminals and bring them back to the organization for a monetary reward. There are no forms to sign or exams to take to become a vigilante, and as such, being a vigilante is not an official position. Because of this, anyone can become a vigilante — some vigilantes even hold normal jobs on the side. However, there is a set of rules that all vigilantes must adhere to, known as the Four Vigilantes' Agreements.

16. #16Vigilante's agreementsselective

    Keys: vigilantes' agreements

    The Four Vigilantes' Agreements are a set of rules set by the Novus Orbis Librarium that all vigilantes must adhere to while doing business with them. The agreements are as follows:

    1. Obey instructions from Librarium personnel
    2. Provide information to Librarium personnel
    3. Do not harm civilians, or involve them in danger
    4. Do not form organizations All are numbered one since they are all of the same importance.
17. #17Bountyselective

    Keys: bounty, criminal, wanted poster

    When crimes are reported to the Novus Orbis Librarium, they will usually issue a wanted poster of the suspect. Wanted posters include the criminal's name, a sketch of their face, and the amount of money that will be paid for their capture. The quality of sketches vary due to skill gaps between the NOL's numerous forensic artists. Depending on the type of crime and the specifics of the case, criminals may be required to be brought in either dead or alive. Wanted posters are distributed by Hierarchical Cities' local NOL branches, and are mainly used as references by vigilantes hunting for criminals. Criminals are given letter-based classes depending on how dangerous they are considered by the NOL, with S-class being the highest class outside of extremely exceptional circumstances.

18. #18Hierarchical cityselective

    Keys: hierarchical city, city, cities

    The Hierarchical Cities are a group of 23 different cities around the globe created by the Novus Orbis Librarium in the aftermath of the Dark War. The majority of the world's population reside within these cities. When the Dark War ended and the Black Beast had been slain, toxic amounts of seithr were released into the planet's atmosphere from its corpse. In order to keep the war's survivors alive, the NOL built the Hierarchical Cities atop mountains to keep people at a safe distance from the polluted surface. Each City follows the same basic plan: on the top of the city resides the NOL branch; higher levels house NOL officials and the upper class, and lower levels are inhabited by poorer citizens. These districts are layered on top of each other as individual plates, held together by a main shaft. Each city holds a cauldron deep within, with the only access being through the NOL branch headquarters. Each Hierarchical City is massive in size, with multiple districts, each of relative size. Because each city is atop a mountain, a Weather Control Device is used to maintain habitable conditions. Large elevators are used to navigate across the multiple levels. A city's number is not reflective of its size relative to other cities.

19. #19Weatherselective

    Keys: weather, temperature

    Weather Control Devices are Ars Magus utilized to regulate the weather of Hierarchical Cities to habitable temperatures. A Weather Control Device is powered directly by seithr from its corresponding city's cauldron, and is controlled through the use of a Regulation Grimoire. Without either of its required components, the device crashes and the city's weather reverts back to its natural mountainous state.

20. #20Areaselective

    Keys: area, block, district

    The 13th Hierarchical City of Kagutsuchi is split up into administrative divisions referred to as "Areas" by the Novus Orbis Librarium. The NOL branch at the top of Kagutsuchi is designated as Area No. 1, and the number of each subsequent area increases as its altitude within the city decreases. There are 28 areas in total from the top of the mountain to the sewage system below the city. Areas differ greatly in size—some are entire town-sized districts while others are just individual large buildings and their immediate surroundings. Regular citizens of the city always refer to areas by their actual names. The area numbers are only ever used by NOL personnel, and even then they're usually reserved for formal reports.

21. #21Black Beastselective

    Keys: black beast

    A Black Beast is a being of unimaginable power that lusts for the destruction of everything it contacts. Numerous Black Beasts have existed in the world's history, but the most famous of which was one that existed during the Dark War. They are nearly impervious to anything that is not an Art, have an incredible physical strength that can destroy anything they contacts, and have both a seemingly infinite amount of stamina and a limitless threshold for pain. The appearance of Black Beasts are simple. They are creatures that tower above cities, have eight serpentine heads filled with rows of sharp teeth, and bodies that are pure black with red lines. Their main bodies are masses of seithr with numerous tentacles protruding from underneath.

22. #22Platinum dollarselective

    Keys: platinum dollar, dollar, p$, pd, pay, payment, money, cash, bill, coin, cost, price

    Platinum Dollars, abbreviated "P$" or "pd", are the currency used throughout the world's Hierarchical Cities. They take the form of bills and coins, and can be stored and transferred through banks like the many other currencies that preceded them. The Novus Orbis Librarium acts as the central bank.

23. #23NOL's Creedselective

    Keys: creed, dispatched in mankind's darkest hour

    The creed of the Novus Orbis Librarium is “Dispatched in mankind’s darkest hour, we are knights of the blue flame!” All members of the NOL are expected to memorize the organization's creed and have it ready to recite at any given moment.

24. #24Cauldronselective

    Keys: cauldron, sheol gate

    A Cauldron, also known as a Sheol Gate, is an entrance to the Boundary itself. They exist all across the world and are mainly located deep underground. Each Hierarchical City was intentionally built atop an already existing cauldron, with each city's Novus Orbis Librarium Branch having a direct Ars Magus elevator down to its respective cauldron's foyer. Cauldrons are used as an effectively infinite power source by cities as seithr endlessly flows out of them into the world. The destruction of a city's cauldron will result in all of its systems that draw power from it failing. In the city of Kagutsuchi, it's located in area 0.

25. #25Smeltselective

    Keys: smelt

    Smelting typically refers to the process of creating weapons and artificial humans using a cauldron. Thousands of souls are required for this process.

26. #26Time loopselective

    Keys: timeloop, time loop, new year, january, 01/01/2200, 2200, next year

    The world has been undergoing a series of time loops that always begin on January 1st, AD2100 and end on January 1st, AD2200. At the end of every single one of the several hundred loops that have occurred so far, Kagutsuchi has been inexplicably shot from orbit by Take-Mikazuchi at midnight on 01/01/2200, killing everyone within it and reducing the city to a crater. Following this, time is rewound back to the starting point and the cycle repeats. Nobody outside of Observers are aware of the time loops' existence. Individuals don't recall anything between loops as they're effectively completely different people from their past incarnations. Every loop is slightly different, as if the world is being gradually steered towards some unknown desired outcome.

27. #27Observerselective

    Keys: observer

    An Observer is a person who is able to create Phenomenon Interventions by acknowledging a reality and using their will to enforce it; this ability is succinctly called Observing.

28. #28phenomenon interventionselective

    Keys: phenomenon intervention

29. #29Prime field deviceselective

    Keys: prime field device, pfd

    Prime Field Device is an umbrella name for a series of artificial humans created by humans themselves for a number of reasons. Their original goal was the exploration of the Boundary, but this has gradually changed over time.

30. #30Boundary interface prime field deviceselective

    Keys: boundary interface prime field device

    A Boundary Interface Prime Field Device is a type of Prime Field Device that is designed for combat and exploration of the Boundary. At least twelve have existed at some point in time. Later Prime Field Devices are so close to being human that it is difficult to tell them apart from ordinary people. A Prime Field Device could likely spend most of their life unaware of their artificial nature if not explicitly notified of it.

31. #31Dark warselective

    Keys: dark war, first war of ars magus

    The Dark War, also known as the First War of Ars Magus, was a world-wide conflict in which humanity, vampires, beastkin, demi-humans, and Kaka fought against the Black Beast. It started on January 1st, 2100AD and ended 10 years later on January 1st, 2110. 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 Cities. Scars left from the war are still felt across the world even 90 years after its conclusion.

32. #32Ikaruga civil warselective

    Keys: ikaruga, civil war, second war of ars magus

    The Ikaruga Civil War was a conflict between the Ikaruga Federation and the Novus Orbis Librarium that began in 2191 and ended in the June of 2197. The conflict began after the Ikaruga Federation announced their independence from the NOL. This war was the first time that Ars Magus was used by humanity against itself on such a large scale, and the second time that Ars Magus was used at all. For this reason, it also became known as the Second War of Ars Magus. The war ended with the assassination of the federation's leader, Tenjo Amanohokosaka, by Jin Kisaragi, who would later earn the title "Hero of Ikaruga" for his victories during the conflict. Following the complete suppression of the Ikaruga Federation by the NOL, the remainder of the survivors from Ikaruga were evacuated to Kagutsuchi, where they built and settled in the district of Roningai. The Ikaruga Civil War cast the NOL in a bad light as citizens took the destruction of Ibukido and Wadatsumi as a a heavy-handed demonstration of the NOL's strength.

33. #33Novus orbis Librariumselective

    Keys: novus orbis librarium, nol, library

    The Novus Orbis Librarium, often abbreviated as the NOL or mockingly, the Library, is an organization that manages and regulates grimoires, has control over all Hierarchical Cities, and essentially polices the world. At it's heart, it's corrupted, with Hazama and Relius Clover often making use of it to carry out their goals. The NOL, however, is important for managing almost all details of the Hierarchical cities and their people, so it's loss would be a harsh blow to life, at least in it's current organization.

34. #34Sector 7selective

    Keys: sector seven, sector 7

    Sector Seven is an organization which engages in scientific pursuits and actively opposes the Novus Orbis Librarium. Their ultimate goal is to create a world without Ars Magus nor seithr, hoping to restore the world to the same way it was prior to the Dark War - their plan being to nullify Grimoires. Even though Sector Seven is comprised mainly of scientists, they do engage in politics and deploy field agents to various locations across the world. Sector Seven was once a part of the NOL, but split away from the organization and became independent.

35. #35Ikarugaselective

    Keys: ikaruga, federation

    The Ikaruga Federation was a federation of six Hierarchical Cities in the Ikaruga Region centered around the 5th Hierarchical City of Ibukido that declared independence from the Novus Orbis Librarium. This declaration of independence was not acknowledged by the NOL, leading to the Second War of Ars Magus, the Ikaruga Civil War. The federation was led by Tenjo Amanohokosaka, the former Imperator of the NOL who had been ousted from her position by unknown means.

36. #36Demi-humanselective

    Keys: demi-human, demi-humans, beastkin

    Demi-Humans are a species that was originally created during the Dark War to combat the Black Beast. Demi-humans largely resemble humans, but have animal characteristics that depends on the subspecies they are. Their bodies are more resilient than humans' when handling seithr, but they aren't fully immune to its negative effects. They possess incredible physical strength and long lives, but are typically less proficient at utilizing Arts than humans. Since they were created by humans for the purpose of war, demi-humans face daily racism, and are treated as second-class citizens despite usually being contributing members of society. They often live in the lower levels of the Hierarchical Cities as a result of their position in society relative to humans. Demi-humans are commonly referred to as beastkin, and come under the umbrella term "beastkin" as well.

37. #37Beastkinselective

    Keys: beastkin

    Beastkin are a species of sentient, humanoid animals. They existed secretly from humanity for most of their history, only making themselves publicly known during the Dark War and later joining society in its aftermath. They have impressive physical abilities and long lives, among other traits. The only known beastkin sub-species is the cat variant. Despite "beastkin" being used as an umbrella term by humans to refer to any humanoid species with animal characteristics, only one of the species is actually formally classified as beastkin.

38. #38Half-Beastkinselective

    Keys: half-beastkin

    Half-Beastkin are a hybrid species of beastkin and human. For as long as they have existed, half-beastkin have been largely shunned by society - both by beastkin and humans alike. Half-Beastkin are shown to be incredibly strong, have very long lifespans, and are potent in the Arts, inheriting positive traits from their parental species. Half-Beastkin inherit the animal subspecies traits of their parent beastkin. Although half-beastkin are similar to demi-humans, the first generation of half-beastkin came around naturally as opposed to how the first demi-humans were artificially created by humans.

It's is a large harbor that hangs off the edge of Kagutsuchi. Unlike a traditional harbor next to the sea, this port receives sky ships powered by Ars Magus. A massive analog steampunk clock that hangs off of the side of a large building is visible from most of the area. The metallic walkways have various patches, owing to Kagutsuchi's neglected state. Various naked grates and exposed metalwork show the inner workings of the city.

The Lost Town is a simple town, decorated with many signs, water-barrels, and lampposts. As there is a large crane in the middle of the town as well as buildings still under construction, it appears that the town is still being worked on by the Kakas to this day. Its two most noticeable features are the giant cooking pot in its square and the large, metal cat-like head constructed near it. Kagutsuchi was built directly over the village—much to it's inhabitants' dismay—which robbed the inhabitants of sunlight. Despite various challenges, the Kakas still live peacefully in the village.

Buried within the depths of Kagutsuchi, this the sewers are connected to almost all other areas of the city and are accessible via manholes. The least cramped entrances to the sewers are located in Lost Town and Cathedral Kagutsuchi. The sewers are littered with rusting pipes and metalwork. Grated walkways and destroyed columns litter this area, while the surviving sewer pipes have unknown organisms stuck to their exterior. Vines grow in places that they shouldn't be and various large insects and crab-like creatures roam freely. Overall, the sewers are in a desperate and disgusting state. The being known as Arakune often uses it as it's lair.
