   PREVIOUS ERA: Elysian Realm, formerly known as the Golden Courtyard, was an existing space within the the MOTHs' Base. It was originally owned by Eden who later handed it down to Mobius. Later on, it would be turned as the setting for a system that will contain the memories and legacy of the Thirteen Flame-Chasers using the SO-1129 tech by Vill-V. In this way, it creates mental images based on neural activity and restores what the brain has seen to construct a world. Its creation also required the participation of the two psychic MANTISes—Su and Aponia. Although during the process, Su fell into a coma. Elysia would then name it "Elysian Realm" and became the group's meeting area. The members would visit the place from time to time to update their memory replicas' data. However, due to the war against Honkai, most, if not all, memory replicas did not know the fate of the original owners of their memory. After the Final Banquet, Aponia visited Vill-V to see through the realm's completion which implied that Aponia merged with the realm.

   CURRENT ERA: In the Current Era, this place was hidden deep within a World Serpent base and was used as a training base by their agents. The said agents would come and challenge the Flame-Chasers' memory replicas. Only qualified individuals with an awakened stigma were allowed to enter. Raiden Mei was the first Herrscher to enter in this era. After the Herrscher of Corruption's invasion, the memory replicas of the Thirteen Flame-Chasers came together as a team to defeat the Herrscher. However, this was at the cost of the world's destruction along with its primary residents.

   TWILIGHT WOODS: • A location where Pardofelis' Shop is commonly found. A forest like area.

   THE DEEP END: • A reconstruction of the original Deep End in the Previous Era through Aponia's memories. It's also how Raiden Mei can progress through the realm by fighting the simulations of enemies that appear on every floor.

   ELYSIUM EVERLASTING: • A reconstruction of Elysia's ideal paradise through her memories. Only Aponia and Elysia, including their memory replicas by association, were the only ones to know of its existence in the Previous Era. This section was only revealed to the others after Raiden Mei had completed her training in pursuit of learning about the Honkai. This was also the exact location where the fight against the Herrscher of Corruption took place.

   WAR ROOM: • Found on the Right side of the Hall. It has a large table where it projects a holographic Earth with screens in the background. Monitors can found along the wall. The War room is where Divergering Paths are found.

   THE LOUNGE: • Located on the left side of the Hall. It is a warm tinted room with a massive red couch(funded by Eden). On the wall, there is a wall with books and vases(?). On the wall next to the shelf is a portrait of Eden. On the floor, there is a red rug with gold detailing. The Remembrance Vessels are found there, each containing the memories of a dedicated Flame-Chaser.

   HALL: • The entirety of the Elysian realm. Also the first location visitors will find once returning from the Deep End.

   THE BATTLEGROUND: • At the end of the Hall. It is a door shaped portal on a circular platform that leads into the Deep End.

   General Signets are Signets provided by Flame-Chasers, other than Elysia, throughout the Elysian Realm's Deep Sequence. One General Signet can be picked every floor, two can be picked on Challenge Reward floors, and multiple can be picked at Pardofelis' Shop. Each Flame-Chaser provides buffs related to their specific gameplay elements. Each Flame-Chaser possesses six Normal Signets. Once at least three Normal Signets of one Flame-Chaser are picked, that Flame-Chaser's two Core Signets will be available; only one Core Signet can be chosen. After selecting a Core Signet, that same Flame-Chaser will have three Core-specific Enhanced Signets that can be selected much like Normal Signets. This leads up to each Flame-Chaser having 14 General Signets in total.

   EXCLUSIVE SIGNETS: Exclusive Signets are provided by Elysia, called Signets of Ego. They cater exclusively towards the current Combat Valkyrie and differ between them. One Exclusive Signet can be chosen at the before the start of Deep Sequence, and two can be chosen if the Combat Valkyrie has the [Destiny of the Flame-Chasers] Special Adjustment. Exclusive Signets can be found throughout Deep Sequence, just like General Signets. There are five Exclusive Signets per Combat Valkyrie.

   REMEMBRANCE VESSELS: • Egg like vessels that contain certain memories from each flame chaser. These are typically unvoiced.

   The Memories in order: Hero's Memory - Kevin Pristine Memory - Elysia Ascetic's Memory - Aponia Singer's Memory - Eden Fool's Memory - Vill-V Mad King's Memory - Kalpas Buddha's Memory - Su Sakura's Memory - SAKURA Youth's Memory - Kosma Serpent Master's Memory - Mobius Painter's Memory - Griseo Soldier's Memory - Hua Mortal's Memory - Pardofelis

   Formation • The Tragedy of Binding dealt a severe blow to The MOTHs that ended with only thirteen MANTISes alive. After that tragic event, Elysia proposed the creation of The Thirteen Flame-Chasers ― a team of heroes that would serve as humanity's last line of defense. This group was then composed of Kevin, Aponia, Eden, Vill-V, Kalpas, Su, Sakura, Kosma, Mobius, Griseo, Hua, Pardofelis, and herself. • However, the organization did not acknowledge their existence, mentioning "over half of the members are not qualified to be heroes". After rejecting Elysia's proposal, the higher-ups came up with a compromise wherein only five out of the thirteen are accepted. The chosen five were Elysia, Kevin, Su, Vill-V, and Hua. Elysia did not accept it on the basis of all or nothing. In the end, the Flame-Chasers were never formally recognized by The MOTHs.

   Project Handlers • For some time, Mobius, along with Dr. MEI worked on the creation of Project Stigma's plans. It was originally tasked to Su but due to his moral compass, Kevin decided to take it in his behalf. Eden was tasked with Project EMBER but she believed she was not suited for it, and instead gave it to Hua believing that she had more future to attain. Vill-V had finished the Ark which was also equipped to the point that even Griseo can pilot it. Kosma was the original candidate for Project ARK.

   Defeat in the Previous Era • However, this faction did not last long as each member died one by one due to subsequent battles or due to personal circumstances. During the Herrscher of Corruption's awakening, Sakura was the first one to die. The devastating casualties brought by the 12th Herrscher lowered the morale of the soldiers. Shortly after, Elysia learned of her original status as a Herrscher and chose to sacrifice herself, presenting herself as the 13th Herrscher. Following the Final Banquet that she had personally prepared, she vanished into light. Some time after Elysia's death, Aponia assimilated with the Elysian Realm. Since Kosma was going to be sent to the Moon to battle the Herrscher of Finality, it's presumed that Griseo took the job as the pioneer and was sent to the outer space to conduct Project ARK before the Herrscher of Finality awakened. • By the time of the Herrscher of Finality had arrived, eight members were sent to the moon to face her. These members were confirmed to be Kevin, Eden, Vill-V, Kalpas, Kosma, Mobius, Hua, and Pardofelis. On the other hand, Su remained on Earth, overseeing the staff at the base. • On the moon, within the first five minutes, two members were immediately killed. While it was unknown who these were, Pardofelis was presumably one of the firsts as her role was to keep the door open in order to hit the Herrscher, inevitably between the crossfire. The other members who died were Kosma and Kalpas who was presumed to have been devoured by the former. The exact circumstance of Vill-V's death was unknown. • Despite hitting the Herrscher of Finality with a fully-powered Selene two times, she wasn't defeated. Kevin dealt a blow that temporarily immobilized the Herrscher, giving humanity 12 hours to proceed with Project Sanctuary. This forced the remaining survivors to return to Earth. • Eden ultimately chose to not enter the cryopods and instead walked towards the barren lands filled with Honkai radiation. Mobius' exact circumstances are currently unknown. According to Klein, she did not enter the cryopods. This left the fact that only Kevin, Su, Griseo, and Hua were the only Flame-Chasers to continue to the the Current Era.

   Pioneers of the Current Era • 5,000 years prior to 2017, the remaining Flame-Chasers and the survivors woke up from the cryopods. Kevin Kaslana and Su woke up earlier than Hua. Proceeding with their respective tasks, Fu Hua accompanied by Fuxi and Nuwa, helped the civilization that started in Shenzhou. From time to time, they would gather together and meet. At some point, Griseo came back with the Ark, finally reuniting all remaining Flame-Chasers. • Later on, Griseo still decided to continue with Project ARK and embarked on a space adventure once more. During her trip to the edge of the solar system, she came across multiple worlds where Honkai Beasts have a thriving civilization, one different from what she knew. After helping these worlds, she continued her trip but was instead incapacitated by Vita who had been ordered by Sa to take the Ark. • At some point, the appearance of Judgment-class Honkai Beast Chiyou forced Hua to halt Project EMBER. Its arrival costed the lives of her fellow pioneers — Fuxi and Nuwa. • Thousands of years have passed and the three Flame-Chasers that remained on Earth lost contact with Griseo. This prompted Kevin Kaslana to continue Project Stigma and tested on an island. Upon finding this out, Su vehemently opposed Kevin's decision which led to their duel. Su was losing and decided to throw the Seed of Sumeru in the Sea of Quanta in order to trap Kevin. Though Kevin was ready to use the full might of Shamash, he spared his friend and threw him out the bubble world. This effectively trapped Kevin in the Sea of Quanta for the next 1,500 years while Su continued his research with Project VALUKA using the 2nd Divine Key. • In 2015, Su met Durandal and after she had passed his trials, deemed her a successor, and handed the Bodhi Leaf containing his research for the past 5,000 years to be sent to Otto Apocalypse, and her own Sumeru to stabilize the bubble world within her. Soon after, his own Sumeru fell into the Sea of Quanta. He had physically died but his consciousness remained in another dimension. • In 2017, Kevin managed to get out of the Sea of Quanta after his encounter with Welt Yang and Bronya Zaychik. By December 2017, he had finally completed Project Stigma, and stole the Authority of Finality from the Cocoon. He was defeated by Kiana Kaslana, Raiden Mei, and Bronya Zaychik. • In the middle of 2018, Su sent a projection of Fu Hua to Phosphorus where he had located Griseo and the Ark. This led to the reunion of the two as well as their battle against Sa in order to save the planet. • Currently, Fu Hua and Griseo are the only ones remaining alive, and to an extent, Su. Fu Hua's consciousness returned to Earth while Griseo remained in New Qiming Star, assisting the world that contained traces of her era via the genomes left in the Project ARK.

   SIMS: • Sims are the recreated versions of the Original Flame Chasers from before the end of Previous Era. Sims can recall their own deaths & that can be a touchy subject for them. • All Sims are simulations but not all of them are aware of how different the world is now. Like Sim Kevin gets confused by the idea of "Surnames"

   NAME: Kevin RANK: 1 GENES: Parvati ABILITIES: Subzero body temperature & Ice powers

   APPEARANCE: Kevin is a 6'0ft tall well-built man with a fair complexion. He has aquamarine blue eyes while his facial expression is usually stern. He has slightly messy white hair. His body temperature is below freezing, making physical contact harder. He wears a white turtleneck with a black collar. It has a diamond shaped boob window with blue and black shaped in a unique way. The rest of the turtleneck looks more sci-fi like. He wears a slanted blue belt that connects to a black item that is also connected to a black belt. He has a collar jacket that is mainly black in the front but white on the back. It's also cut to his cheat in the front but goes down to his calves in the back. The ends of the jacket are black with white belts. On his right shoulder is a black and white pauldron with the signet of Deliverance (a sword). His forearms are covered in black arm guards with hints of white at the edges. He has black gloves while the palms and fingers are a bright blue. His pants are black. On the left side are two silver arrow like things. On his left knee is a mainly black guard with one upper part being gold and the highest part being a bright blue. The top of his boots are gold while the boots themselves are black. On his back jacket is mostly black but the top shoulder area is white excluding the collar. In center and middle of his jacket is a bright blue arrow shaped design. At the end of it is two gold buckles with a black strap. Further down are 4 more larger gold buckles with black straps. On the jacket collar, there are gold lines close to the edge of the inner collar.

   VESSEL: Hero's Memory STORY: Kevin Kaslana is shown originally to be quite a picky young man. Attractive, talented and athletic, an array of girls were drawn to him. Although there were countless suitors, he only loved one seemingly unlikely match—the quiet nerd girl who always had her nose in a textbook, Dr. MEI. As the daughter of a well-known electromagnetic scientist, MEI aspired to become a scientist and was constantly studying at every opportunity. However, Kevin made his move, gradually opening up MEI's shyness, and her heart.

   These carefree times did not last long, and the chaotic force of Honkai that swept the world, broke out. MEI, valued for her high intelligence, was received by the MOTH, and Kevin offered to become a soldier of MOTH for MEI.

   In the confrontation between mankind and the Honkai, Kevin was supported by the power of the legendary "Divine Key" weapon made by MEI using Herrscher core, but he still suffered heavy losses. In the face of the 7th Herrscher's overwhelming power, MEI proposed to try to incorporate the genes of a powerful emperor-class Honkai Beast, Parvati, into the soldier's body in order to produce a super soldier who could resist the Honkai. Kevin voluntarily participated in this experiment. After suffering unspeakable pain, Kevin's body was imbued with the power of Parvati and came into possession of a strong freezing ability, and defeated the 7th Herrscher. However, as a result of the experiment, the temperature around his body was constantly dozens of degrees below zero, and he could no longer be in normal contact with humans, including of course—his beloved MEI, whom he could no longer embrace.

   Because of Kevin's special constitution, he has become one of the very few human beings who can use Judgement of Shamash. But no matter how powerful its ability was, it could not restore the destructive blow of the civilization of the Previous Era by the Final Herrscher. In her final research, MEI's body was eroded by Honkai energy and her life was consumed by it. When Kevin withdrew from the battlefield of the Final Herrscher and returned to MEI, he found that she had completed the research on the stigmata of the Herrscher and had died safely. Kevin, heartbroken, was about to follow MEI to death, but was stopped by the sound of a baby's cry. The baby had a letter from MEI telling Kevin that the child was a fusion of his and her DNA and was an improved test-tube baby, which not only retained the gene of Parvati's freezing ability, but that also when he grows up, his body temperature will be no different from that of normal people, and that the baby will be called Adam, after the first man.

   Kevin took Adam into cryosleep pods of refuge, where he slept for 50,000 years. At the time when the new human civilization was threatened with Honkai again, a man calling himself "Kaslana" appeared in front of people, holding a flame sword in his left hand and holding a baby, in his right hand, bringing new hope to that era.

   NAME: Aponia RANK: 3 GENES: Midoro ABILITIES: She has the mysterious ability to see the threads of Fate and place a Discipline onto others.

   APPEARANCE: Aponia is a tall woman with light brown hair. Her blue eyes are usually bowed down, like in reverence. She wears a long white veil with thorns and flowers accenting the sides. She has a tight white turtleneck with a butterfly brooch extending around a blue gem on her chest. There are various cross-like symbols over her body. She has black and puffy sleeves which end in white cuffs. Her shorts are white and frilly. From her torso all the way down to her feet, she dons a long black cloth with golden accessories. Connecting to her back is a long robe that resembles blue butterfly wings. There are much shorter, wilted, butterfly wings connected to the black piece. Her heeled boots are a simple white.

   VESSEL: Ascetic's Memory

   NAME: Eden RANK: 4 GENES: Varuna

   APPEARANCE: Eden has long red hair, which she wears loose. Her eyes match her codename, being a deep yellow. She has a golden hairpin that goes from her left side to the back of her head; its golden chain leads to a brown bow. She also has an earring on that side. Eden wears a dress akin to a stage costume: the sleeves resemble the Juliet style, it is ornamented with gold, and it has a long and billowy skirt (fit for a dramatic entrance). Her outfit is night brown, with red accents on her sleeves and pendant. The bottom of her skirt is also red. There are also patches of white at her torso and at the end of her sleeves. The latter extends into the shape of a flower, held down by another gold pin. Eden also wears black tights and a black glove on her right hand.

   VESSEL: Singer's Memory STORY: Eden was born and raised in the lost continent of Mu. Not much is said about Eden's past other than her stardom and fall from the spotlight. As a novice, she was very determined to reach the top. Apparently, she was really picky about venues and bookings, which made people think she had a huge ego. She cut ties with the company that managed her and secured a performance on her own.

   The first venue she got a spot on was a small one for charity. Some of the people who attended recorded her singing and posted it online, which garnered a lot of attention. Professionals praised her talent, and said she would rise to popularity at some point. There were also critics, of course. Despite the challenges on her path, Eden did rise to the highest stage. Her generosity and talent brought in more and more fans until she was the biggest name of her time. She lived in extravagant homes, and drank the finest wine, all while improving with each performance. But Honkai ended that life.

   She was performing in Sydney's Super Dome when the 7th Herrscher appeared. The fire engulfed the country and the venue. Only Eden and a few others survived. She did her best in the relief work, but deep inside she wished she had died. Her manifestation says as much when talking to Raiden Mei. Without the world of art, she felt there was no need for her existence. Nevertheless, she kept going. When she was receiving treatment after the disaster, she got to know some MOTH soldiers: including Elysia. Elysia asked her to join them, and she did. Eden thought that even though she couldn't perform anymore, she could still shine bright as a soldier. She wanted to live her life to the fullest until it ended. She decided to participate in the MANTIS program, and asked Elysia to give her the most dazzling Honkai Beast. Normally, this wouldn't be possible, but Elysia said if multiple beasts were compatible with her she might get to choose.

   After the fruitless battle against the Final Herrscher, Eden chose not to encapsulate herself in the cryo pods. She firmly believed that she belonged to this era and that she should die with it. She sang one last song as she headed out into the desolate wasteland alone.

   NAME: Vill-V RANK: 5 GENE: Unknown PERSONALITY: As a side effect of her MANTIS surgery, Vill-V has the ability to split her mind in two. In theory, she could do so infinitely, but her brain power would be spread thin. As of now she has split her mind into 8 parts. This results in multiple "personalities", though really, they are all the person named Vill-V. Vill-V also has a habit of delegating each persona specific tasks and thus specific knowledge, which makes it seem as though she has multiple personalities. Vill-V’s various personas include The Conductor Vill-V, The Great Magician Vill-V, The Expert Vill-V, Flavorful Vill-V, Kevin Killer MK5, Vill-V Looking Down Upon The Stars, Pure Evil Vill-V, and Vill-V of the Helix. Helix is the "original" Vill-V who was dormant for fifty thousand years before being woken by “Pure Evil” Vill-V killing their other personas. The Kevin Killer MK5 is a personality that the others don't remember being added to the bunch. For simplicity's sake, these parts of the mind will be described as if they are separate. The main three are The Conductor, The Great Magician, and The Expert. They will be referred to as such. The other Vill-Vs aren't usually very active. The Conductor and The Great Magician are both very friendly, while The Expert is a bit more reserved. As the one delegated to do most of the work (like creating the Divine Keys), she feels cheated. She seems to be the most concerned over cleanliness, as she once got mad at The Magician for eating messy food before her turn to control the body. The Magician loves to have fun and put on shows, as her name suggests. When she first meets Raiden Mei, she challenges her with the Shell Game and memory tests. Ironically, every option in the Shell Game led to a portal of her Signet. Before all of her alternate personalities had been revealed, The Conductor described three personalities that Mei had yet to meet; a chef, an occultist, and a being of pure malice. Flavorful Vill-V can be assumed to be the “chef” persona, and Pure Evil Vill-V explains herself to be the half of their mind that The Conductor placed ever bit of malice they had into. This leaves Vill-V Looking Down Upon The Stars as the “occultist” persona.

   APPEARANCE: Vill-V is a young woman with medium length dual-toned hair, split in the middle between light and dark brown. Her eyes are grey with bright pink pupils. Vill-V wears a brown and white top with a belted leather bodice, short brown pants with a coat back, and brown thigh-high boots. She also wears a brown top hat and gloves, with the right glove having metal tips to the fingers and the hat, as well as the majority of her clothing, being adorned with cogs and other such mechanics.

   VESSEL: Fool's Memory

   NAME: Kalpas RANK: 6 GENE:

   APPEARANCE: Kalpas has messy gray hair with singed ends. Rather than seeing his face, we see his mask. It is black and gold, with a shape resembling that of a Chariot's face. He seems to constantly have fire around him when in battle, and holds canisters at his side. His outfit is chaotic and doesn't have a consistent pattern to it. His left arm has a glove that extends into a gauntlet. The right is without a glove, opting for a cape that extends from his upper arm. He has huge spikes at his right shoulder as well. He wears a black shirt with white accents. His pants are also black. There are belts in various places: like his back, his pants, and his arms. One of these belts holds a few bullets.

   VESSEL: Mad King's Memory STORY: When he was younger, those running the shelter in Sundown Alley stumbled upon him. It is unclear whether Aponia herself took him in or if someone else found him. He was on the verge of death -- suffering from a severe case of frostbite. Somehow, without treatment, he had healed quickly. When Aponia asked him how he got that way, he mentioned meeting someone very cold. As their conversation went on, Kalpas asked her what to say to make people he hated go away. "Get lost." she answered. He told her to get lost. He presumably stayed at the shelter from then on, and his introduction to MOTH was a result of SAKURA arriving in Sundown Alley. It just so happened that SAKURA discovered their shelter on accident. The thing is, this shelter didn't just house those who had no place to go like Kalpas. It also housed a lot of people with Honkai Illness -- so many people that SAKURA was alarmed. She nonetheless fulfilled her duty as a "cleaner" and killed the infected so that the disease wouldn't spread. Kalpas remained standing. When SAKURA approached him and explained her actions, he charged at her with no hesitation. A fight ensued, reducing the building they were in to debris in a mere 28 seconds. He had managed to actually get a hit on her despite not having ICHOR, and thus caught Fire Moth's attention. SAKURA took him to HQ, where he was thrown into The Deep along with Aponia. He seems to blame Aponia for the incident. Elysia was actually the one to get him out of prison, promising an endless war if he cooperated. Of course, he was not simply let loose. Aponia, who was freed before him, used the power of Discipline to get him somewhat under control. He was assigned over 20 adjutants to keep an eye on him until he eventually met Emile. They had a unique relationship, since Emile was constantly trying to assassinate him. It was because of this that Kalpas chose him to be his adjutant. He was amused by his attempts. By that point, Kalpas was already in Cocoon with SAKURA, and they shared a bond due to working together. After the Tenth Herrscher took Emile as one of its hosts, it ended. Eventually the Herrscher was defeated, and the gem in Emile was imbued into a Key of Domination like every other vessel of the Herrscher. When he found out his friend's remains were in some random weapon, he went around trying to destroy every one. In his own words, he explained that Emile "was the only one who wanted to kill [him], so [he] had to finish him [himself]." Their odd sense of comradery as adversaries was something Kalpas wanted to respect to the very end. He said that he was the only one worthy of wielding Emile, anyway. He was caught before he could break the key he was looking for, and was forbidden from touching a Key of Domination ever again. At some point after becoming a MANTIS, he made a deal with Mobius. The details aren't completely clear, but she modified him in exchange for cooperation in experiments. Specifically, she seemed to want to study his heart. The only hint we have of his fate is that Mobius said he would likely go insane and lose his humanity sometime in the future.

   NAME: Su RANK: 7 GENE: Mahāmāyūrī

   APPEARANCE: Su appears as a young man with a fair complexion. He has knee-length gray hair, with teal-green highlights. His eyes are fuchsia-colored with green pupils, although they are often closed. Su's clothing consists of a black polo with gold details on the collar and breast pocket with a white sash over his left shoulder. The sash has a gold pin on the shoulder. On his left ear, he wears two black helix earrings and a gold hoop earring. He wears loose gray jeans fastened with a black belt with a green detail. On his belt, he appears to have a dream catcher hanging from his left side, and two other trinkets on the right side. On his right hand, he wears a dark-gray glove, while his left hand is bare. His left hand is decorated with several types of symbols, including a tattooed ring on his index finger. He wears white boots that reach up his calf.

   VESSEL: Buddha's Story STORY: When disaster struck in Nagazora, and the 3rd Herrscher of his era struck, Su thought that his best friend Kevin Kaslana went missing. Su was a doctor at Ninth Hospital for the previous 2 years. He'd been working tirelessly to try and cure the Honkai sickness. On a certain day, Su was assigned to a 10-year-old girl named Annie who was infected with Honkai sickness. He promises to find a cure for her. He is then called into a surgery for another patient, which fails, leaving Su feeling terrible. He's then approached by a Mr. Long, a MOTH member, who asks for the patient's body. He also reminds the agent that he submitted an application to MOTH. Su has a chat with an unknown mentor, telling them about his application, saying he wanted to give it a shot no matter how slim the chances were. After a short talk, the mentor tells Su that he's their best student. Su then considers that, since other survivors of Nagazora were taken by MOTH, that Kevin could be there with them. Su is then called in to operate on that girl. She dies nonetheless. Su is overtaken by grief, but snaps out of it when he says he needs to focus more on his studies. When Su arrives at the hospital the next day, he sees it blocked off by caution tape. Mr. Long says that the hospital has been quarantined due to a Honkai outbreak. Su tries calling his mentor, but nobody answers. An unknown MOTH agent arrives and tells Su that he can take them to the mentor. The agent briefs Su on what he knows of him, and they comment on how it's impressive that he managed to delay the death of a patient. Su says it's not an accomplishment, as all 52 of his patients have died. Su arrives at a room within the hospital, where he sees the mentor's body, dead. They had been a victim of the Honkai sickness. The MOTH agent explains that all of the patients with Honkai sickness will be treated at MOTH, and that Su doesn't have to worry about contracting it due to this. Su demands to be allowed to join MOTH, but the agent declines, saying his medical expertise is far too limited to be of any help. For 2 months Su was tasked to do ordinary hospital stuff, but he would still study every case of Honkai sickness he could find in his off times. When the MOTH agent comes to claim another victim who tested positive for the sickness, he stops in to see how Su's doing. Su hands them a paper on a possible cure for it, but the agent says it won't work. Apparently this is the ninth time he's done so. The agent tells Su to give up on trying, but Su refuses. He asks the agent to continue mentoring him. When a Honkai outbreak happens in the city a few hours later, Su grabs a girl who'd been attacked by a Honkai beast, and drags them to safety. He notices the Honkai sickness in them, and injects a prototype cure into them. It doesn't work. Su remembers that the agent said that the serum is too weak, and raises the dose of the active ingredient of the serum, and injects it again. This time, it works--the stripes recede. However, the Honkai beast comes back for it's prey, but Su shields them, getting Honkai sickness from the blow. The agent comes to find Su, impressed by his serum. When a Honkai beast is about to strike the Agent, they call Kevin, and he defeats the beast in one blow. Su is amazed to see his friend again, after over 5 years. Su passes out, and awakes later in a hospital bed, with no signs of Honkai Sickness. He gets up to have a talk with the agent, and he sees that the child he had just protected died anyway. Su questions how he was cured of Honkai sickness, and the Agent explains that a single dose of the cure can be created from the antibodies found within 1,000 victims. The agent then tells Su that he's made it into MOTH. Su asks about Kevin, and the agent tells him that Kevin is the greatest soldier of MOTH. The agent gives Su a dossier of what Kevin's been doing the last 5 years. He also introduces Su to the concept of Herrschers. Shortly after Su joined MOTH, the 8th Herrscher arrived. Surviving members of the unknown MOTH agent’s team were placed into what’s called a “Cognitive Cage”, where they were temporarily safe from the Herrscher’s powers. Due to it being temporary, they had to fight back and locate the Herrscher. They did this by putting Su into an "observation hub", where Su was to disengage his cage, go into the 8th Herrscher’s dream, and locate it. Su volunteered to do this mission. Within the Dream, Su encountered the Herrscher immediately. However, the observation hub was switched off by the Herrscher. Su is caught by the Herrscher, where he’s thrust into yet another dream. He finds himself in a world with the unknown mentor still alive, and Su has cured the Honkai Sickness. Thankfully, the unknown MOTH agent switched back on the observation hub, allowing Su to realize that the dream wasn’t real. They successfully locate the Herrscher due to this. With the ordeal over, Su talks with Kevin, who tells Su that Dr. MEI herself has invited Su to take part in Project STIGMA. During the battle against the 14th on the moon, Su stayed on Earth, directing things from there. When he learned of the warriors' failure, he told everyone to initiate Project Sanctuary. Upon learning that Kevin is still alive, Su rushed to see Dr. MEI so he could tell her the good news as soon as possible. But he soon notices Honkai Radiation stripes appearing on MEI's neck. MEI tells him that she’s dying of Honkai Sickness, and that the only reason she’s been alive so long is because of Su’s medication. MEI asked Su to promise to always be by Kevin’s side. Su agreed, saying that Kevin is his best friend as well. She also places Su in charge of Project Regulator, which is a counter-measure in case Kevin strays from the right path. MEI dies before Kevin comes back. Upon seeing her body, Kevin tells Su that it isn’t his fault. When Kevin leaves, Su once again promises MEI to make sure Kevin never strays from the right path. Su enters the cryogenic chambers.

   NAME: SAKURA RANK: 8 GENE: Yaksha

   APPEARANCE: SAKURA looks exactly like Yae Sakura except she has a blue hair accessory, a blue and navy jacket, a white t-shirt, white socks, black shorts, a black and blue glove, and blue high boots. Before SAKURA became a MANTIS, she wore a pink and white dress, a pink and black watch, and a pair of pink and black headphones.

   VESSEL: Sakura's Memory STORY: SAKURA was taught the art of the sword by her father. She lived in the Previous Era's Far East with her little sister RIN.

   SAKURA fought to protect RIN as Honkai grew more and more dangerous. At some point, SAKURA tried to attack Kevin Kaslana and Dr. MEI when they were going for a walk but was detained. Later, she was to be let go, but Dr. MEI suggested a deal. She said that to protect her sister, she would need more than just her sword. At the mention of RIN, SAKURA raised her weapon to Dr. MEI's neck. But Kevin was ready and whipped his pistol against her head. Dr. MEI went on to say she wasn't threatening SAKURA, but that they needed someone like her in MOTH. She said she was free to leave if she wanted, but this was a one-time offer. If she joined MOTH, she would have more resources to protect her sister. SAKURA stayed silent while Dr. MEI spoke. Eventually, she sighed and sheathed her blade: officially joining MOTH.

   The deal involved her joining Cocoon as a hitman of sorts. She was tasked with getting rid of multiple people; this included those infected with Honkai Illness. This was so the disease couldn't spread any further. SAKURA didn't like the job but fulfilled her duties. She tried her best to bring those innocents peace in their final moments and left flowers for them. One day, she was assigned to track down some people who had defected from MOTH. Somewhere along the way, almost all of the gear prepared for her was stolen. Now she had to find the defectors and her armory, so she expanded the search area and found a shelter in Sundown Alley. Said shelter had numerous people who were infected with Honkai Illness; there were children, elderly, adults, all kinds of people. So she did what she always does. She fulfilled her mission, and "cleaned" the threat. When she was done, she ran into Kalpas. He challenged her, and the building they were in was leveled in 28 seconds. SAKURA was victorious and brought him and a woman named Aponia to "The Deep" (something akin to a prison).

   Out of all the sims in the Elysian Realm, hers has the least amount of information about what happened in the Previous Era. This is because she died the earliest. As shown in game, SAKURA was on a mission to break her sister out of MOTH's HQ. RIN was detected to be the 12th Herrscher, and although she showed no maliciousness nor power, she was locked up for observation. She was to be monitored 24/7 and not allowed to leave her cell. Despite her and SAKURA's pleas, this didn't change. So SAKURA took matters into her own hands.

   She ran into Kevin on the night of her mission, and he tried to convince her that Dr. MEI knew what she was doing. The swordswoman refused to listen to him, and he caved. He let her pass. She was too late, though. A hoard of MOTH soldiers went against orders and murdered RIN, which caused her to truly awaken as the Herrscher of Corruption. SAKURA tried her best to bring her sister to her senses but died in the process.

   NAME: Kosma RANK: 9 GENE: Vishnu

   APPEARANCE: Kosma is a young man with dark green hair that is usually tied into a small ponytail. Like Elysia, his ears are pointed. He has four black horns with small orange marks at their bases, two having grown in the front and back of his head. He has winged earrings that match his own and dons a green dress shirt and black pants. A large gray cloak sits over his small shoulders and extends down his back. He has long black boots with orange accents, which also match his gauntlets. They extend from orange to black, with long claws at his fingers. Underneath his claws, he wears orange gloves that extend past the black covering them. To top of his foreign appearance, a large tattoo sits on the right side of his chest, slightly resembling some kind of alchemy symbol.

   VESSEL: Youth's Memory STORY: Not much is known about Kosma's early life other than the fact he tried to take on the Herrscher of the Wind during the 4th Eruption without knowing what it was capable of. He would later be saved by Kevin who would be his reason to join The MOTHs. The Fire Moth During the 9th Eruption, Griseo's father, Ato, would die against the Herrscher's might in front of his very eyes. Before he passed away, his last wish was for Kosma to look after Griseo once he's gone. Unable to accept Ato's death, his turbulent emotions paved way for Meta-Morph Overload, transforming him into a more "demonic" beast. Due to this, he saw Kevin in a different light and defected from The MOTHs. Not long after, Mobius would track him down and give him an offer wagering that she can turn him back from what he was once before.

   NAME: Mobius RANK: 10 GENE: Sésa

   APPEARANCE: Before her MANTIS surgery, Mobius was a tall adult woman, often seen wearing a lab coat and glasses. Currently, Mobius has the appearance of a child, with long, curly, green hair that extends to her waist. At the back of her head, there is a contraption that drapes four black belts. On her forehead, she wears a black crown. Her eyes are a gradient that goes from green to a light pink. Her pupils are thin: like a snake. She wears a sleeveless tight black dress, detailed with green and gold. On her left arm she has a loose semi transparent sleeve and a black glove, while on her right arm she has a long black glove with three green claws. They are located on her thumb, index, and middle finger. She has a gold earring dangling from her right ear. Her child-like appearance is the side effect of becoming a MANTIS: with each death, her body will regress in age, with her memory fading as well as the result.

   VESSEL: Serpent Master's Memory STORY: Even from her childhood, Mobius has always been special. Her mother, described as having delicate features and green hair, was pregnant with her for 10 months, and she managed to name Mobius and give her a golden earring just moments before she died.

   Quickly after the birth, Mobius uttered her first words, much to the shock of the people in the room. Mobius' father was a once well-known apothecary and an excellent parent to her despite having to raise her alone. However, an unknown illness had struck him, which made him miserable, and he occasionally started hitting Mobius. She became used to it and even started to pity her father, as she knew that it was due to the side effects of his medicine, which she had been preparing for him. However, on her 9th birthday, after being abused by her father again, Mobius proclaimed to herself that humans are ridiculous and ugly, and that she would make humanity evolve so they wouldn't have to turn into something similar to her father. This was also the last birthday she would spend at home.

   NAME: Griseo RANK: 11 GENE: Unknown

   APPEARANCE: Griseo is a little girl with long light blue hair, which she has divided into two lengthy twintails at the back. When she was younger, she went around barefoot because Kosma wanted her to stop making a mess of her canvas and bed with her shoes. Griseo wears a white dress with a black collar, with a little blue flower brooch sitting close to her heart. Her dress is accented with frills and elegant patterns at the ends, which extend all the way to her feet in the back, and has several stains from being covered in paint. On her head is a black beret decorated with a gold flower pin and feathers. A large blue ribbon wraps around her waist, and she walks barefoot.

   VESSEL: Painter's Memory STORY: Griseo was the daughter of Blanca and Ato, a lab assistant to Mobius and a MANTIS soldier who served as Kosma's senior, respectively. Although Mobius disapproved of Blanca setting aside her scientific ambitions to start a family with Ato, she was grateful to Blanca for recommending Klein as a replacement before leaving and treated Griseo well. Griseo's father was busy with his duties and not often around, but her mother would bring her to her office, where she got to know Mobius. Although Mobius disliked it, Griseo typically called her "Aunt Mobius".

   Griseo has very few memories after this, thanks to the 8th Honkai Eruption that killed her mother and nearly took her own life. All that she remembers is falling into a deep sleep and waking up to find her parents gone. In a last-ditch effort to save the girl's life, Mobius performed the Meta-Morph surgery on Griseo. Although it was a huge gamble, the surgery was successful and it both gave her a second chance at life and turned her paintings into a form of memetic hazard for those that viewed them. Shortly after, during the 9th Eruption, the life of her father would also be lost. After the deaths of her parents, Griseo was cared for by Kosma and Aponia, who she affectionately called "Mama Aponia" because she was kind to her like a mother.

   Like the other twelve Flame-Chasers, Griseo's memories were used to create a sim of her that resided in the Elysian Realm.

   NAME: Hua RANK: 12 GENE: Garuda

   APPEARANCE: Fu Hua looks like a 17 year old girl of average height, contrary to her actual age. She has slate blue hair generally worn in a low ponytail, pale skin, and blue eyes. When in her MANTIS form, her eyes turn red and her hair becomes a mix of white and red. Fu Hua wears a close-fitting black and purple mechanical battlesuit with glowing violet lines and reinforced armor sections. Black mechanical hairpieces are attached beside her head, while large black and purple gauntlets cover her arms. Her legs are protected by fitted armor and black heeled boots with purple details.

   VESSEL: Soldier's Memory STORY: Hua was born as an ordinary girl in the slums of a metropolis in Eastern Asia during Earth's Previous Era, and described herself as neither a metropolitan nor villager. She lived with her father who at that time owned a dojo where he trains students in martial arts. As its successor, Hua had also spent her days training within it. Her Student Days On her first day of school, she woke up early to do her daily training before visiting her injured father at the hospital. There, he reminded her to take care of herself, to think about herself more and make some friends. After visiting her father, she had set off to attend her school at Sapphire City where as a freshman, she would meet her very first friend. The Third Honkai Eruption At the end of their semester, Hua thanks her friend for everything with one of them about helping her make friends. Her friend rebuts that people chose to be friends with Hua because they like her, telling her to have more confidence on herself before bidding each other goodbye. While reminiscing the fun she had at school, an alarm blared off at the airport where she witnessed flaming objects falling from the sky. It was the start of the 3rd Honkai Eruption.

   She ignored the sirens and returned back to the city. During the attack, she was rescued by Captain Himeko of the The MOTHs. Hua was brought to The MOTHs' base situated outside Sapphire. It was through her that she learned that Sapphire was destroyed and she was just one of the few survivors brought in the base. Himeko had also informed her that she will be sent to Australia first where she can apply for a place to go after, all expenses paid. She was also told that most of East Asia has been hit by the disaster and that there were no survivors from her place. Hua decided to know the truth, and this choice was led to her in becoming a soldier for The MOTHs. After the Defeat of the 6th Herrscher After the defeat of the 6th Herrscher, The MOTHs has organized a party to celebrate their victory. Hua knows that they've won but cannot understand how people can just forget the sacrifice and pain they've been through. Himeko explains that one cannot fight a war with low morale. She asked Hua once again if she's not attending the ball, adding that there is a snack bar for non-dancers, and that she's definitely going to get her on the dance floor. Hua agreed in the end.

   NAME: Pardofelis RANK: 13 GENE: Unknown

   APPEARANCE: Pardofelis has light brown hair that is tied up into several braids. Her outfit is quite lavish, and her hair isn't exempt from this treatment, with a fancy hairband and several adornments along her head. Her bangs are exceptionally long, reaching the bridge of her nose. She has heterochromia, leading to her left eye being blue and the right being light green. Seemingly as a result of her Meta-Morph surgery, she has cat ears and a tail. One of her ears is covered by a gilded tip, and her tail is covered in what appears to be Honkai beast carapace. Pardofelis wears a small black top and short skirt. Attached to her neck is a white cat-eared hood, from which hangs four large cat paws. Attached to her skirt is a cat paw emblem and several purple sashes with star-like symbols on them. On one hand she has a black and purple glove, and on the other, a single-fingered sleeve that reaches her upper arm. She also wears tall black-and-white heeled boots with gold details.

   VESSEL: Mortal's Memory STORY: Pardofelis grew up in the Sundown Alley lounging among cats. She was infamous in the area gaining the moniker Sundown Alley Thief who was well-known for stealing from the rich and bad people while helping the poor. This led to her having a bounty on her head with numerous posters in the area. Pardofelis has met Aponia during the time when she attempted to steal the sanatorium's gate. She leaves some of the goods stolen at the sanatorium where Kalpas worked as a porter. The Fire Moth After the defeat of the 10th Herrscher, Pardofelis thought of infiltrating The MOTHs for the sake of stealing supplies but inadvertently ended up a volunteer for the Meta-Morph surgery. Pardofelis joined every squad to collect uniforms and at some point ended up joining Cocoon for that reason. She immediately quit after receiving the said uniform and ended up abandoning a mission to which Kalpas was sent to finish instead. She did not actively participate during the Tragedy of Binding since she was one of the first to fall into coma due to the Herrscher's ability. She lost her friends Joana and Mira, fellow 2nd-gen MANTIS, during that time. The Thirteen Flame-Chasers Pardofelis was not considered as a Flame-Chaser by the higher-ups considering that she was among the many 2nd-gen MANTISes that hasn't distinguished themselves in battle. She was not at The Base during the 12th Herrscher's attack which she lamented on after learning of its aftermath. She visited Sakura's grave mentioning how she wanted to create an "animal ear alliance" with her considering that they were the only ones left to have animal ears as a side effect of their Meta-Morph surgery. The Final Herrscher During the final battle, she was one of the Flame-Chasers sent to the moon. Before their mission, she returned back to what used to be the Sundown Alley and buried the box which contained treasures she found from childhood to adulthood and all of what she considered as her valuables.

   NAME: Elysia RANK: 2 GENES: Maheśvara ABILITIES: Crystal Manipulation

   APPEARANCE: Elysia is a young-looking girl with pointed, elf-like ears resulting from a side effect of the Meta-Morph surgery used to turn her into a MANTIS. She has light pink hair tied into a ponytail that extends far beyond her shoulders. Her eyes are light blue, although her pupils are an odd pink just like her hair. Elysia wears a white top and black shorts with long black stockings, along with a little black shawl with an off-the-shoulder style. The sleeve she uses has purple layered frills and a shoulder plate, while her other arm has a black glove instead. She wears a white, black, and lilac cape at her waist, which has a fur trimming at the end.

   VESSEL: Pristine Memory STORY: Within the absolute void, she was born — the First Herrscher of the Previous Era. As a young child, on the 11th of November, a young, pink-haired girl was found by a gardener sleeping under the tallest ash outside the town of Vladivostok 51 and was sent to the orphanage where she would live her days. The girl loved and was loved but at that time she did not have a name. A year after, the orphanage owner, Celia, gifted her a cake and a picture book where she would find the name that would suit her. Some time later, an organization that preceded the MOTHs blockaded the village and searched for an unknown anomaly yet they did not find anything out of the ordinary. By the third time, Elysia confessed to Celia about leaving the town to go for an adventure. While Elysia was curious about the outside world, she was afraid and thus left to protect the village she had come to cherish. Throughout her travels, she had already crossed paths with some of her soon-to-be companions. The Fire Moth Years later, Elysia, now a young woman, would soon join the MOTHs around the time between the 1st and 2nd Eruption. Apart from Ato, Mobius was one of the first people that Elysia met as a new recruit. Not long after, Elysia would bring back Vill-V, a notorious con artist, and guaranteed that her skill and talent would be proved useful to the organization. Some time after the 3rd Eruption, in the morning of the MOTHs' Tradition Night, she would learn that she had been pushed back as No. 2 in the training records. Later that night, she wore a maid outfit and searched for the mysterious new soldier that surpassed her record. This was the first meeting between Kevin and Elysia. By the time of the 6th Herrscher, the two would experience devastating casualties due to Kevin's hesitation of killing the Herrscher under the assumption that she could regain her humanity. Within an undetermined amount of time, Sakura brings back Aponia whom Elysia would welcome at the woman's arrival. Some time later, Elysia would visit Kalpas and offer him a choice, taking him out of the Abyss Lab. Around the time after the defeat of the 7th Herrscher, Elysia would come to Mobius to partake in the MANTIS surgery, gaining the serial number CM-002. Even with a bittersweet victory, the first seven MANTIS came to celebrate Kevin's birthday some time later. The events of the 7th Eruption led Elysia to cross paths with Eden once again, making Elysia the first friend that Eden would make upon her participation in the organization. Soon, they would have one of the closest relationships within the Flame-Chasers. The Thirteen Flame-Chasers The Tragedy of Binding dealt a severe blow to the MOTHs that ended with only thirteen MANTISes alive. After that tragic event, Elysia proposed the creation of The Thirteen Flame-Chasers ― a team of heroes that would serve as humanity's last line of defense. This group was then composed of Kevin, Aponia, Eden, Vill-V, Kalpas, Su, Sakura, Kosma, Mobius, Griseo, Hua, Pardofelis, and herself.

   However, the organization did not acknowledge their existence, mentioning "over half of the members are not qualified to be heroes". After rejecting Elysia's proposal, the higher-ups came up with a compromise wherein only five out of the thirteen are accepted. The chosen five were Elysia, Kevin, Su, Vill-V, and Hua. Elysia did not accept it on the basis of all or nothing. In the end, the Flame-Chasers were never formally recognized by the MOTHs. Despite that, Elysia still made the paradise named after her into reality: Elysian Realm. What once was Golden Courtyard owned by Eden then turned over to Mobius became the legacy, not of The MOTHs but of the MANTISes who fought for humanity. The realm constructed by Vill-V and with the help of psychic MANTISes Su and Aponia became the home of memories of The Thirteen Flame-Chasers, immortalized through the end of time leaving behind knowledge to be used by future successors. As its founder, Elysia was its first-in-command but swapped places with Kevin just because she wanted to see if it will elicit any reaction from others. She was also the one who assigned the ranks and signets of each Flame-Chaser, herself ranking second with the Signet of Ego. Summer Survival Rhapsody Some time later, Elysia would create a summer movie script where all Flame-Chasers would participate, acting the roles given to them. Elysia plays the part of a freelancer known as Miss Pink Elf. The 13th Herrscher Elysia was tasked to track an abnormal concentration of Honkai energy only to return and tell Sakura that her sister was the source, making Rin the next Herrscher. With this in mind, Elysia helps Sakura with the latter's plan to escape with Rin only for that to never come to fruition. Due to the destruction brought about by the 12th Herrscher, the soldiers' morale had hit rock-bottom and Elysia decided to enact the ultimate sacrifice that could unite the organization once more. This was how the identity of the "13th Herrscher" was born. With this revelation, an investigation had been conducted to verify the background of the Herrscher known as Elysia. Only Dr. MEI, Aponia, Eden, and Vill-V knew the truth behind her existence. Dr. MEI was the one to confirm her Herrscher identity. Aponia knew that she was special from the beginning due to ability to see the strings of fate. Under a romantic moonlight, Elysia shares her childhood story in full detail with her beloved best friend Eden. Vill-V was clever enough to reach a deduction. None of them ever slipped out the truth. The Final Banquet To say farewell to the world that she loved, she organized the "crusade" to which only four would attend, the bearers of the crystal flowers whom she entrusted with: Vill-V, Aponia, Eden and Kevin. Elysia wrote invitations to all Flame-Chasers, even Sakura, but ultimately never sent them. On the day of Kevin's birthday, the 13th Herrscher known as Elysia died by the hands of the hero of humanity. This was what the organization and its soldiers were led to believe. In truth, Elysia vanished into the light and her dissolution changed fate itself. She did not know if it would work nor what would have happened afterwards yet she decided to bet that the future, the destiny that Aponia deemed written could change. Elysia wanted to believe that humans have the power to change and it did. Aponia was no longer able to see the threads and it was also what led to the Herrschers of the Current Era to retain their sanity and not fall into the programmed purpose set by the Honkai. Cases like Welt Joyce, Welt Yang, Kiana Kaslana, Raiden Mei, and Bronya Zaychik proved that Herrschers can fight for humanity just as she did.
