TypeDeathwatch Beetle Witch
NatureDying Wishes

A girl who spins stories without hesitation swims alone in a sea of creation, disguising her true feelings as a child.

She thinks of the future, but her immature wish would cut off her loved ones and end with cruel consequences. The insect that shows you the illusions you desire and extinguishes the fire of life, takes every soul into its own story.

She doesn't wish for much, but protecting her allies is her lifelong creed.

淡々と物語を紡ぐ少女は 幼き本音を偽り 創造の海を ひとり泳ぐ

未来を想うも 未熟な願い 愛する者を切り離した 残酷な結末 望む幻を見せ 命の火を消す虫は あらゆる魂を 己の物語に取り込む

多くは願わない 同士を守ることのみが 一生涯の信条


History

Doppel description

The Doppel of Dying Wishes. Its form is a deathwatch beetle. The master of this emotion will sacrifice everything she has. This terrifying Doppel uses both of its bug-headed hands to devour the stories of the world. It can then use its ridiculous power to materialize these stories into the real world. It is said its power comes from its weakening master, and that as she gets weaker, the Doppel get stronger. However since it uses all of its power to materialize the stories it eats it doesn't pack a physical punch, some even believe it wouldn't stand a chance against a direct hit from a Witch.

Trivia

  • Her name is a direct reference to a work of Kenji Miyazawa, titled Biography of Pennen Nenemu.
    • The story is about the titular character Nenem. He is a ghost who lives in the ghosts' world. The world is a different dimension from the world where humans live, and although ghosts can "appear" in the human world, it is a crime to appear without permission. Nenem loses his parents by a famine and his sister by an kidnapper, and is employed as a proletarian. He quits his job after working for ten years and then rises to the position of "the Chief Justice of the world". He does a fine job that all citizens praise, and in the process reunites with his sister, but he later becomes bloated with authority, slips and appears into the human's world, from his conceit. He laments his failure and declares his resignation.
    • For other references to his work, see Kenji Miyazawa and Magia Record.
  • Her form is that of a deathwatch beetle, an insect whose name comes from the superstition that its clicking sound portends death. It also slightly looks like an owl, which have been wisdom symbols ever since Pallas Athena.
