Filvis Challia (フィルヴィス・シャリア) was the captain of the Dionysus Familia. She is later revealed to be the Creature Ein (エイン) who was working under Enyo.

Appearance[]

Filvis had long black hair and red eyes. She wore a frilled white dress with a white coat with light blue edges over it. As Ein she wore a long purple robe that covered most of her body except for her face, over which she wore a pink and purple mask with an eerie design. She used the mask to create a voice that sounded like multiple people speaking at once and similar to a man and a woman.

After she cancelled her duplication magic and became one again, her black hair grew long enough that it touched the ground and her eyes turned dark blue. The area around her eyes sank in, pale red root like things grew out of the magic stone in her chest, and her skin turned an unhealthy bluish white color.

Personality[]

Like most Elves, Filvis did not let anyone to touch her except those she allowed. Strangely, and unique to her race, her aberration to physical contact included other Elves. However, her attitude toward Elves was later revealed to be because she didn't want to dirty them, as she thought she was unclean. This in turn intensified her desire not to be touched by others much more. When Bete grabbed her to get her attention, she responded aggressively, slashing at him with her sword.

However, her distancing in general from all those who were not of her race seemed to be due to a genuine disinterest in getting to know them or forming bonds of any kind. She was also a fairly direct and clear person regarding her intentions and thoughts on the subject.

Her lack of concern for the impression she gave and lack of care in her words led to her attitude giving the impression that she was impolite and to her quickly earning the dislike of others. As soon as she met up with the Loki Familia girls to explore Daedalus Street she explicitly said that she didn't plan on forging a friendship with any of them.

Despite this, Filvis was a loyal friend who cared deeply for others once she formed a true friendship with them. After getting to know Lefiya better she began to repeatedly support her in every way she could, teaching her how to perform concurrent chant and use her magic Dio Grail.

Throughout the war between Enyo and the Loki Familia, she tried to keep her friend away from the conflict and deviated from agreed upon plans on several occasions to allow her to save herself. In the Nightmare of the 27th Floor, she died facing the Demi Spirit to try to save her companions despite their efforts to ensure that she could escape, refusing to flee after hearing only a tiny plea from one of them, even when she fully knew she had no chance of winning.

After her transformation Filvis developed an intense love for Dionysus as well as a fervent loyalty to him as the God accepted her despite being a Creature, throughly carrying out his will and following him unconditionally in spite of knowing that she was being used.

As a result of that incident, Filvis became an extremely mentally unstable person as a result of having become a Creature, as well as the serious impact it had on her and the subsequent trauma. Horrified at the being she had become, she attempted multiple suicide attempts in various ways, only to sink into greater despair at her repeated failures. The experiences she lived because of this and the persistent voice of the Demi Spirit speaking to her and instigating her to fulfill her wish severely damaged Filvis' psyche, so she resorted to passing all of her hatred and pain onto her clone to remain sane.

As a consequence of this, Ein, her clone, felt great hatred towards the original Filvis. She enjoyed laughing at her misfortune and found great pleasure in her suffering, mocking her when Lefiya discovered the truth about her. Likewise, she hated when she lamented the tragic experiences she went through and spoke of herself as a victim, arguing that she was the one who had truly suffered.

However, her rudeness was not limited to just the original Filvis, having an aggressive and contemptuous attitude towards everyone, accusing Revis of betrayal just because she didn't move when she told her to and calling some Evilus members incompetent after they were captured. She also admitted having laughed to herself at Bete after realizing his genuine concern for others hidden behind his insults.

Despite this, Ein also possessed a more sensitive side, holding Lefiya just as dearly as the original. She also lamented out loud about her situation and expressed her wish that she had met Lefiya before Dionysus so she wouldn't have ended up the way she did, all while she smiled sadly and shed a tear.

Abilities[]

Creature (怪人(クリーチャー)): As a Creature, Filvis was an incredibly powerful being capable of getting stronger by eating magic stones. However, her body had a terrible consumption rate, requiring her to ingest a large amount of magic stones. While her Einsel magic was active her combat ability was equal to that of a Level 3. However, in her full form she was even more powerful than Revis, possessing a physical prowess equivalent to high Level 7 tier.

Immense Strength: Filvis easily stopped a full-strength blow from Bete. Likewise, she held his fist so tightly that the Werewolf was unable to break free despite his attempts and crushed it until she fractured his bones without any effort. With one blow to the floor she generated a shockwave that created a wave of the green flesh that covered Knossos which had enough force to send Lefiya flying, destroy both her armor and her staff and injuri her to the point of leaving half her body overwhelmed with intense pain.

Immense Speed, Agility and Reflexes: Filvis was so fast that when she passed Lefiya, the young Elf felt as if a whirlwind had passed by her side and she wiped out dozens of adventurers before Lefiya even turned around although she did so immediately as soon as she felt the gust of wind.

Immense Durability: Using only her arm, Filvis deflected without taking any damage an Arcs Ray loaded with an incredible amount of mind from a new Level 4 Lefiya. She also withstood dozens of attacks from a pseudo Level 7 Bete using Hati and an explosion from the magic, the latter being his final attack strengthened by Haruhime's level boost and the damage caused by as well as the magical power absorbed from Lefiya's Fusillade Fallarica.

Immense Endurance, Stamina and Mind: Filvis had an inhuman tolerance to pain and damage. In her confrontation with Bete she continued to fight even while suffering attacks that tore her skin and shattered her bones. Her vast reserves of stamina and mind also allowed her to constantly heal during most of her duels with Aisha, Asfi, Lefiya, Ryuu, and Bete despite the inconceivable amount of damage she was subjected to. Even after accumulating lasting damage, losing several fingers, having her throat charred, and having every inch of her body severely burned, Filvis survived. Even after her magic stone was destroyed, she remained alive for a few more minutes.

Accelerated Healing: As a Creature, Filvis possessed an incredible regenerative healing factor. Her ability allowed her to consume stamina and mind to use them in order to heal mortal wounds. Despite his previous brutal onslaught and his usage of Hati, Filvis was confident that she would withstand Bete's assault. Even with her entire body scorched, her regeneration began to heal her, although at a very slow rate due to how little mind remained in her reserves by then.

Instinctive Reaction: The roots across Filvis's upper body could move on their own, having prioritized protecting her chest to safeguard her magic stone from Bete's final attack.

Expert Magic Swordswoman: As a magic swordswoman Filvis fought as a member of the vanguard, using her ability with concurrent chanting to wield her weapon and short-chant magic with great skill in battle. She was a versatile combatant who excelled in short and long range combat. While she was capable of fighting on the front lines, she could also provide ranged support with her magic. Even by the standards of magic swordsmen, Filvis was incredibly fast.

Due to having used Einsel for six years, during which both she and her clone fought on different battlefields, Filvis had as much combat experience as a first-class adventurer, being only slightly inferior to Bete in techniques and tactics.

Enhanced Senses: As an Elf, Filvis had a very good eyesight. After acquiring her falna all of her senses became much sharper than those of a normal person, with her eyesight still being particularly superior to the rest. Her senses further improved with each subsequent rank up.

Concurrent Chanting (並行詠唱): A high level technique involving casting magic while fighting or moving around. Its difficulty is likened to dealing with a bomb with both hands while fighting due to the chance of failing a chant or not being able to control their own magic power.

Tamer (調教師(テイマー)): As a Creature, Filvis held control over certain monsters, specifically those created by the Demi Spirit, such as Violas and Virgas. Her orders were even able to override their natural instincts. She primarily used them to assist her in combat while operating as Ein.

Magic[]

Dio Thyrsos (ディオ・テュルソス): Dio Thyrsos created a blast of golden lightning that struck the opponent. It was a super short chant magic. When used by Filvis in her complete form, the magic turned black and its power was comparable or perhaps even greater than that of the Titan Alm Demi Spirit's magic.

Dio Grail (ディオ・グレイル): Dio Grail created a circular barrier that shined white. Like Dio Thyrsos, it was a super short chant magic.

Einsel (エインセル): Einsel was duplication magic. She gained this magic after the events of the Nightmare on the 27th Floor. As a cost to use the magic, Filvis' status was halved while the magic was active.

Skills[]

Fairy Senior (妖精哀唱(フェアリー・シーニア)): Fairy Senior increased the effects of magic, and the effect of the skill rose based on sorrow.

Monstrum Union (人怪融合(モンストルム・ユニオン)): Monstrum Union signified that Filvis was a hybrid between child and monster, a neo-irregular, and caused a status bug and anima erosion.

Darklight (黒呪汚染(ダークライト)): Darklight had an active trigger and changed the light and wavelength of magic. It could also add anti-healing to magic.

Development Abilities[]

Mage (魔導): Mage improved the power of Filvis' magic, widening effect range, and making mind usage efficient. It also created a white colored magic circle under her when she used magic. In her complete form, her magic circle became black. The ability granted her a magic stat equivalent to that of a person of the next level.

Equipment[]

Tear Pain (ティアーペイン): A second class short sword that improves mind usage. It was a weapon Filvis had Lenoa create after the Nightmare on the 27th Floor. The materials came from Filvis' home forest of Ashenia and were created from a breaking sword. As attempting to use it with her power as a Creature would cause it to break, she didn't bother to collect it after her "death".

Guardian's White Torch (護手のホワイトトーチ): The Guardian's White Torch is Filvis' wand. It was created from a Holy Tree of an Elven forest that wasn't her own home forest and was given to her after she obtained Dio Grail, before she knew of corruption.

Corruption Hiding Heavenly Garment (穢れ隠しの天衣): Robes Dionysus made that hid everything past Filvis' neck, though it had low defenses, in order to hide that she was a Creature from the Gods. The robe was created from drop items and masked magic. As the Gods had never seen a Creature before, they couldn't tell she was one, and other Creatures couldn't tell if she was one if they don't know she was one.
