Summary
A magical girl born into a family loyal to the Pharaohs. From an early age, she was sworn to obedience to the dynasty and forced by the adults to enter into a magical girl contract. She secretly wonders if she was really born just to serve the Pharaohs.
Doppel Description
Doppel of Skepticism. Its Form is a vulture. The master of this emotion has been forced to live a life of obedience to the king since birth. But when she realized that there were other ways to live, she was tormented by conflict. This Doppel always creates fluctuations due to such conflicts, and by flapping its wings, it spreads to the surroundings and causes confusion in the heart. The hesitation quickly expands, creating various binary oppositions such as joy and sorrow, hope and resignation, respect and contempt, and causing chaos. Finally, when it reaches a critical point, chaos overflows and takes everything with it into impermanence.

Etymology
- 'Ebony' denotes wood of trees of the Diospyros family. The word comes from the Ancient Egyptian hbny.
Trivia
- Her illustrator is "Punyan"
- Due to the fact that Egypt was controlled by a Greek kingdom during the time period of her event, there is speculation that her family may be Greek instead of Egyptian.
- She is the sixth playable character to lack a family name, after Lil' Kyubey, Kuroe, Chizuru, Kuro (黒) and Kuro (くろ).
- Ebony's design seems to be heavily themed around Egyptian deities.
- Her magical girl outfit resembles some of the clothing worn by Egyptian deities.
- Her Soul Gem is based on Scarab artifacts, a symbol common in Egyptian mythology, that is said to represent the god Khepri. Here, her Soul Gem takes the place of the ball (sun) the scarab holds.
- Her head-dress being a peacock, is said to reference the sun god Ra and is also associate with the Eye of Horus. Despite her wearing several sun symbols, she is a Dark-type.
- The name of her Connect references Bennu, an Egyptian god linked with the Sun, creation, and rebirth.
- Her Magia name references Horus, the most significant god of the Egyptian pantheon and the god of kingship and the sky
- Her Doppel's name, Apebis, is a combination of Apeba (a genus of longhorn beetles, referencing scarabs and Khepri) and Anubis (the Egyptian god of mummification that takes the form of a jackal).
- Despite its name being associated with beetles and jackals, the Doppel itself takes the form of a vulture. Vultures, being carrion birds, are also associated with death. The Egyptian goddess Nekhbet, who took the form of a vulture, was a patron goddess of the city Nekheb who ultimately became the patron of Upper Egypt, and then one of two patrons for the entirety of Egypt once it was unified. In ancient Egypt, vulture crowns were protective symbols of the goddess worn by high ranking priestesses, the Great Royal Wives, and female pharaohs.

**Unique to Ebony** This is not a sacred incense dedicated to God, but an incense that deceives and manipulates people. Once you let it waft over the area, the place is instantly under your control. Once the sensation of smoke wafting into your head is seared into your mind, All that remains is to surrender and let "her" guide you. | これは神に捧げる聖なる香ではなく、人を惑わせ操る香

Since I was a child, I have been told to devote my body and soul entirely to the Pharaoh.
I have lived my life accordingly, without the slightest hesitation. But now, the throne in front of me looks distorted I must hide the glimpses of regret with my scarred loyalty | 身も心もすべてファラオに捧げよと幼い頃から言われ続け
これまで微塵の迷いもなく、その通りに歩んできた人生 だけど、今、目の前の玉座は歪んで見える 垣間見える悔恨の情を、傷だらけの忠義で隠さねばならない |

Losing sight of left and right, I just keep looking forward and continue crossing the sea of sand.
When I looked back, my footprints were already blown away by the wind. No one will ever know my path again. Yet, I look forward and never stop walking. | 右も左も見失い、ただ前を向いて砂の海を渡り続ける
後ろを振り返ると、もう私の足跡は風に吹き消されていた これでもう、誰も私の道程を知ることはないだろう それでも、私は前を向き、歩みを止めることはしない |
