I drew out Three's embroidery again bc I am still obsessed with this thing? And Fujisaka's details 😱
I'm probably going to make a hoodie with it, but I don't know where to put it (the shoulder down the back? The arm?). I already made a Laty hoodie from VOC 🥰

Three is the 26 year old biotech prodigy and the goth girlfriend of your nightmares. After her and her sisters ascension to the Red Eye Board, Three began her reign over the biotech fields, creating Armisael Implants.
Her products are self-servicing, self-installing implants, reliant on nanotechnology, that remove the pain and trauma of a normal Ripperdoc experience. While prices are a little steeper, the quality and longevity is well worth the investment.
In her free time, Three conducts business as an “Experimental” Ripper, pulling in volunteers and victims who are on the cusp or over the Edge. For her ethically questionable services, she has been nicknamed the Angel of Death. Her victims are referred to as her Dolls.
Three, the Goddess of Sloth: A Drakengard 3 Analysis
WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD! READ AT YOUR OWN RISK!
Yo! It's me, back at it again with another analysis post. Welcome back to my Drakengard 3 Seven Deadly Sins/Heavenly Virtues series. I've seen that I've been getting some likes on the other two that i did. So I wanted to thank you guys for reading and supporting my works ♥︎. Before I get started here, if you're seeing this for the first time and like Drakengard 3, be sure to check out the other posts that i did about Five and Four. And also I stream occasionally on Twitch, so I would appreciate if you stopped by and checked out the channel.
Anyways, Three has by far been both the hardest and the easiest to analyze out of the Intoners. Sounds contradictory, I know, but I'll explain later. Now sit back and relax as we get into Three, The Goddess of Sloth.
"Once upon a time, many moons ago...There was a beautiful intoner and an elderly man. The intoner's only love in life was making dolls. She loved it so, so, so, so very much. It was an odd obsession, to be sure; one the elderly man would often worry about...if the mood struck him."
INTRODUCTION TO THREE
Three is the third youngest of the Intoner sisters and the ruler of the Land of Forests. Four describes her as being the most "unbalanced" among the sisters, but that's putting it mildly. She has an extremely unhealthy obsession with making "dolls", which are the soldiers that she creates. She has a rather moody and aloof personality, but when she starts talking about her dolls, her whole demeanor changes. The subject of her creations brings her great joy, and she begins speaking much faster (as opposed to her usual slow speech) and with more enthusiasm.
MAIN GAME
Before we even meet the woman herself, her horny disciple, Octa, betrays her and willingly joins Zero and the party. When asked by Three, Octa claims that he left because of her immoral experiments, which is partially true. But she calls out his true intentions by saying that he needed a more "eager partner" and that he grew restless because of a lack of sex. That's the other half of truth haha. There's more banter, but she gets eaten by Mikhail by the end of the fight. As with the other sisters, you don't get much of them from the main game and her time on screen was short-lived. Literally. We don't get a full understanding of what her experiments are until the DLC and part of the novella.
THREE'S PROLOGUE (DLC)
So here's where we start getting to the meat and potatoes. As I said earlier, Three creates these soldiers for war purposes. She and Octa are tasked with destroying some of her soldiers that have gone haywire. When confronted with them, she remembers every doll down to their names and their flaws. She's exceedingly knowledgeable about their bodies and knows exactly how she failed and learns from the experience to make improvements the next time around. This would be admirable if she wasn't experimenting on living creatures. If only she used her intelligence to do good for the world instead of satisfying her own sick desires.
Gabriella comes to help out at some point and she stays calling out the intoners on their bullshit. Three apparently laughed at something immature that Gabriella said (I watched it back a few times I didn't hear a laugh so just go with it i guess) and she called her out on it. "See? You try to act like this moody, inscrutable genius all the time...but deep down you're just a little kid who laughs at fart jokes!" -Gabriella
All this proves is that the Intoners are all just children at the end of the day. That explains why a lot of them are emotionally immature. Four even said it herself in her novella.
"The Intoner was fascinated with the world's curiosities. And nothing was more curious than humans. So the intoner asked the elderly man: 'Why do people fight each other?'. The man replied 'I don't know'. 'Why do people move? Why do people think? Why do people live? Why? Why? Why? Why? The intoners questions continued on. And on. And on..."
Three is drawn as a little girl in the storybook-style part of the DLC. She has a natural childlike curiosity and that curiosity led to an obsession with humans and the human condition.
Time goes on and Three and Octa kill more and more of her dolls, and things start to get more and more morbid. Then we really get to see how disturbed Three really is. Octa expresees his disgust with the situation and fails to try to reach Three. She seems sad by the fact that she has to kill her "gifted" children. I forgot to mention this earlier, but she comes up with a bunch of riddles for Zero and the party to solve and analogies that straight up don't make any sense.
Octa: These gigantes seem a bit...rotten. Did you make them as well?
Three: No. Think of these children as merely spare parts. They're the junk leftover from my other work. Like the bones of a half-eaten fish
Octa: I must say, I'm starting to feel bad for them...
So she uses what she needs from whatever living creature she uses to make her soldiers and discards the parts that she doesn't. It's like she treats them like they're leftover ingredients or something.
Octa notices the next set of gigante monsters are different and this is where Three (casually) admits that she crossed them with humans. The gigante is capable of speech and talks about how it wants revenge on Three for what she did to them, not that I blame them. She goes on another long-winded tangent about how she created them and Octa can't help but to be concerned.
T: But my research found the answer. Human strength is governed by emotion
O: Your..research?
T: Yes. My research. Research to create the perfect soldier. I decided I had to cross between assorted emotion sets.
O: Cross? You don't mean--
T: Of course I do! Why wait for the right emotions to come along when it's quicker to make them yourself?
O: How many people died for this, my lady?!
T: 56
O: You counted?!
T: Keeping one's memory sharp is what helps maintain youth, after all!
O: I cannot believe this...
T: Octa! Hey Octa! Guess what? Come on Octa! Ask me! Ask me!
O: I cannot, my lady...
T: You want to know which humans had the highest durability levels? The ones who were filled with hate! So i gathered up a few nearby villagers and I... *giggles* And I.. *giggles*
O: Please, my lady! No more!
T: I killed a guy right in front of them! They didn't even see it coming! Just hacked him into little bits!
O: My lady...
Had to include this interaction for more context. Yeah, I feel bad for Octa. And her victims of course. Three grows more unhinged and uncharacteristically excitable as she goes over the details. She is completely unafraid to share her thought process, as she's legitimately proud of what she achieved with these murders. This moment is also the straw that broke the camel's back for Octa.
"The intoners hobby caused her to lay hands upon human beings. Once she crossed that line, nothing could stop her. The elderly man silently excused himself from the room. He chided himself for his impotence as he mourned for his now-broken intoner."
The end of the DLC. Octa realizes that Three is officially too far gone to be stopped, so he takes it upon himself to leave and joins Zero. Three has already crossed the moral boundary of killing humans, so nothing would've stopped her at that point. It's probably for the best that she was put down by Mikhail. Who knows just how many more people she would've sacrificed in the name of her "research".
NOVELLA
Three's novella is fitting for her, you could say. It's basically just a journal of her logging her experiments. It's here where she details her thought process, how she makes her dolls, her inspirations and identifies her mistakes and how she improves with the next experiment. Her level of intelligence is impressive, and she also proves to be incredibly observant, analytical and determined to succeed. However, it doesn't make up for her unethical and immoral nature, cruelty and selfishness.
She is completely and utterly socially inept and is oblivious to her actions. She fails to understand that her experiments are wrong, and she genuinely doesn't understand why Octa doesn't like her dolls.
NOVELLA ARTWORK
This is just a quick analysis of the image used to represent the novella. It shows Three standing in the center with her sisters' heads on chess pieces surrounding her, scissors in hand. I believe this is how she views humans and other living things. Pawns for her to use and tamper with for her own sick satisfaction. It could also symbolize where her madness began. She says in the novella that the first doll she ever made was a copy of an already existing doll. And the doll she copied was apparently a chess piece, which she wasn't aware of at the time.
COLOR THEORY (PURPLE)
Color theory is extremely important when it comes to character design and logo design, like for brands, game logos, etc. Although sometimes colors are just chosen because they look good, and that's fine. But overanalyzing is the name of the game here. Every color has positive and negative traits associated with it. Purple is very hard to find in nature, so some may consider it to be exotic. It is also the color of mourning in some cultures. Some positive traits include royalty, power, mystery, imagination and creativity. Negative traits can include sensitivity, immaturity, decadence, and conceitedness. Despite how awful of a person she is, she has pretty much all of those positive traits that I listed. But the negative traits more than outweigh the positive ones.
THE FINAL SONG
Here's where I wanted to talk about her dance in the final song. Just like the other odd-numbered Intoners, her movements are asymmetrical and odd to say the least. It's unpredictable and oppositional (ex: when one arm goes up, the other goes down, etc). Her movements are constantly conflicting with itself. It's uncoordinated and done pretty haphazardly. It appears to be loosely timed with the music, showing her disregard to the world around her. She doesn't appear to be reaching out for anyone or actively involving anyone. She's just moving as she pleases.
TLDR
Three was an unhinged, yet highly intelligent woman who performed immoral experiments on humans and other living creatures for her own twisted self-indulgence. She had a complete disregard for human life and failed to understand the horror that she induced with these creations. Her actions were so monstrous, in fact, that her own disciple saw the need to betray her. Her personality was usually moody and aloof, but Gabriella reveals that she is still just a child on the inside. Her curiosity about the human condition led to a dangerous obsession and she callously toyed with their lives as a part of her research. In Four's novella, which shows the Intoners in a more casual setting, Three is lazy, irresponsible, and can apparently sleep anywhere at any time. Like Five, she doesn't clean up her own messes and disregards those around her. It's a very small part of this overarching story, but this is why I've dubbed her the Goddess of Sloth.
AFTERTHOUGHT
Whew! Finally done with this thing. I called her the easiest and the hardest because I couldn't get anything super deep with her like I did with Five and Four. I wish I had more to work with, but what you see is what you get, I suppose. If you've gotten this far, thank you so much for reading and for giving me the time of day. My next analysis is gonna be on Two. Dunno when that'll be, but I'll try not to let too much time pass between this one and the next. As usual, I'll catch you guys next time. o/
