Pre-EXTRA!Mirai

A feisty magus with a knack for magical combat, often mistaken as a noble due to her beauty and power. Which was not helped by how tauntingly she declared herself a super-elite based on power level alone. As a result, she has had to discipline any suitors unfamiliar on the matter with a show of force with the expressed intent to raise her power level even further and loot them of any valuable thereafter. Be they jewels or servants, she will take whatever is on their person.

Of course, this constant show of force has gotten her into trouble with quite a lot of people. But she was ultimately left unsupervised to functionally do as she pleased as her ideal of world domination was deemed too small and juvenile to be a serious threat not unlike other magi her age.

After all, strength without purpose was looked down upon by most of the old-heads still kicking around, so much so the ideal they would ever need to take preventative measures to account for someone like her could or would ever show to threaten them fell on death's floor. Believing no amount of training could ever makeup for strength collected for a just cause or sinister purpose.

EXTRA!Mirai

The strongest among magi; The Black Witch. Bolstering the devastating and elusive "World-ending Sphere" as well as her signature "Draconic Revolver", accompanied by a darkened heart sometime after her father's death. She has discarded her desire for a harem and lost all interest in having servants to solely tend to a more serious pursuit for power that exceeds her current understanding and imagination. As such, even her passes at men and women alike came to a screeching halt to focus on improving her magic capabilities.

Despite this more standoffish Mirai's presence and deathly demeanor, there were still a select few that could close the emotional distance between them outside of battle to draw-out that egotistical side of Mirai's and occasionally journey alongside her.

Eventually, her abnormally high battle power led her to discovering the broader multiverse and effectively disappear for the better part of a decade after nearly tearing apart the universe. She was able to meet and witness an astounding number of mortals, monsters & celestials with power comparable to her own as she took the opportunity to continue leveling up with the expressed interest to surpass them.

GENERATIONS!Mirai

Having overexerted her very mind & soul by constantly multiplying her battle power beyond their cultivated limits via pushing the "Nth Power" to the extreme at the cost of mental fatigue and a weathered soul, her eyes have taken most of the backlash. Those sharp eyes have had their vision impaired and have gradually begun to degrade in quality whenever she tries to go any higher than the 3rd Power while transformed.

Due to this, she will sometimes wear specialized glasses to offset some of the blindness as she researches a way to either undo the damage or find alternative path to powering up. Since the ability to see is a key component to using magic and general combat.

Unlike other known variants of Mirai, this version of Mirai does have a daughter named Elaine she dropped by an orphanage for reasons undisclosed. The orphanage was never informed who could have contributed to Elaine's birth, but around this time period Mirai was recognized as something more of an assassin or a merc than a witch.

There are a lot of questions that will go unanswered surrounding this version of Mirai, but her direct counterparts have occupations ranging from arithmetic teacher, swimming instructor, author and time patrol.

MODERN!Mirai

The mainline Mirai whose experiences are comparable to Pre-EXTRA & EXTRA Mirai, except she powered up "the correct way" and significantly earlier in life compared to GENERATIONS!Mirai thanks to extended guidance from her universe's Overseer after an impossibly strong threat to all continuities showed its face and the subsequent uptick in rivals as she was obliged to go on an adventure across them to find and later piece together the Limpid Prism.

The Limpid Prism being a wish actualizing/manipulating jewel with boundless potential inaccessible to the gods by design. A delicate item only meant for mortal hands.

Although Mirai never got the chance to make direct use of the prism-herself, the year spent fighting and exploring alongside some of the Spiritual Universe's best warriors and brighter demeanors reminded her of select figures back in the Magical Universe. But not with the explicit desire to reconnect with anyone specific, but to take a rest and refamiliarize herself with the world that was without her since her memories were starting to become hazy.

Granted, she was disappointed to see how much weaker and/or stagnant most of society became when it came to magic but did not get much of a chance to fully understand why due to an abrupt awakening of spider-like stigmata said to make those tatted by them immortal. Opposed to finding time to rest, she was now enlisted to fulfill the role of a detective by the Guild-master as these stigmata have also appeared on the deceased and even repaired the bodies of those that were not preserved, effectively reviving them. Her father included.

While a bit surprised someone publicly deemed a trashy womanizer and alcoholic was marked to be revived, his presence did slash the number potential suspects. And given how taboo immortality is on a grander scale not many in the universe would understand, Mirai has limited her suspect list to The Council & Witch Council based on the power necessary to blacklist reapers from entering specific temporal worlds. But without concrete evidence it's all speculative, leaving her with little to no choice but to play along and not be so forceful when investigating since she must register all potential foes to be numerous and unkillable in a way where destruction of the soul is irrelevant.

But on the bright side, this is the perfect opportunity to refresh her magical knowledge and reasoning skills.

DIVERGENT!Mirai

Little is currently known about her apart from the fact she's one component of the everlasting fusion warrior, DIVERGENT!Satomi. Though it can be inferred from this Satomi's naming scheme for attacks like:

"World-ending Light: Big Bang Glaive"

"World-ending Blip: Aggroed Dissection"

"Ephemeral Breath: Scattered Hellfire"

"Giga-shock Roulette: Lacerating Rotation"

It can be inferred that this Mirai has more wide-ranged and sweeping attack than highly destructive ones, since this Satomi has access to the World-ending Series just like the mainline variants but there's less of an association with more intricate piercing and cutting.

Likewise, DIVERGENT!Satomi is much more selfish compared to the standard one since she can be convinced to effectively fight mainline Suki & Mirai (and/or Satomi) on the behalf of an extradimensional threat with the promise of an incredible battle, and is labeled a villainess via her title card debut on Discord:

[Crash Course of the Ultimate Fusion!! Even Villains Dream of Paradise!!]

As a character, Aizah has always been in "unofficial" canon-limbo.

While her relationship with Mirai in Proxy Acts (if you ever caught a glimpse at those) has always turned sour and takes cues from previous RP Ships, those scenarios tended to take place during a time period shortly after Mirai (under normal circumstances) would inevitably acquire the World-ending Sphere.

It should be noted that the Polaris Family has a reputation of birthing heroes that even Ultima's grandmaster, Hans, cannot refute so easily. Royal blood aside.

-

Generally, in the timelines strongly resembling the Official History where Mirai successfully acquires the World-ending Sphere without any outside assistance necessary to prevent her body from being possessed by the collective & evil spirits of slain gods (dubbed The Fallen) that allured her, Aizah is sent to Ultima as a safe bet she would remain safe with such an overwhelmingly powerful individual within Hans's ranks.

Although it not 100% necessary for Mirai to have such a devastating spell to incite trust in Ultima's forces, Aizah would become an admirer after hearing of such willpower and obsessively latch herself to Mirai in hopes to become more like her and inject herself heart with darkness. Where Mirai would give push, Aizah would keep trying to pull her close: exposing the darkness in their hearts was never the same as Aizah would happily die alongside Mirai even if it meant they had knives at each other's throat as the closest thing to affection she could comprehend. It was inevitable their interests would clash as Aizah never saw her life as truly her own to begin with, so others' lives were not viewed too differently by her.

-

In worlds without a Mirai that knows the World-ending Sphere, Grandmaster Hans often loses his life protecting the people of Ultima, which leads to Aizah's family capitalizing on the shift in power dynamics regardless of if Ultima is completely destroyed or not.

While Aizah's own activity goes undocumented in those worlds, it is safe to say her family in some capacity partake in evil and knew of The Council's misconduct across timelines as Serena can be uncharacteristically seen as a member of said council in few timelines where The Council got publicly ousted from Ultima but are clearly operational in Buxiu. The acceptance of refugees from Ultima be damned.

It does not take a genius to understand there's corruption in Buxiu too.

-

In worlds where Mirai has successfully acquired the ability to create a World-ending Sphere but lacked the conviction necessary to prevent her body from being hijacked AND Hans has been killed, Aizah's visage as a heroine-in-the-making tanks as she learns of Serena's unyielding, unconditional & undeserved love for Mirai.

Despite Aizah specifically being prohibited from heading to Ultima due to how quickly danger escalated with The Fallen's presence, Aizah's envy for such never-ending & blinding love leads her to shoehorn herself into the conflict between Serena & The Fallen with the loose intent to help and try to understand how a failure like Mirai could receive such grace by ultimately slashing Serena in the back to evoke a strong-enough emotional response to break the bond between Mirai & The Fallen to come to an understanding. But by doing so, Aizah becomes victim to The Fallen's body-snatching abilities as the only available vessel in this universe left.

Now, while the sensible thing to do from Aizah (and most combatants) is slay the newly fused threat and be done with both of them once and for all, however the same favor Serena showed Mirai was now being extended to Serena even after Aizah gave the OK to kill her. Serena chose to save her, and with Mirai backing Serena, was able to spare Aizah the fate of being fully assimilated into her. However, just as it seemed like Serena & Aizah were coming to a mutual understanding about what it means to both love and show love, Aizah chooses to self-destruct as a response. While there is a strong case it was done in spite of Serena's efforts, given how extremely Aizah expresses herself, it cannot be completely ruled out as a final act of love born from guilt.

-

Every form of extensive characterization for Aizah so far had been when she was just a princess, but RP-wise I have always tried initiating things when she is a queen and has never gotten the explicit chance to engage Mirai though they know of each other. And for this reason, in the "Official History" would be anywhere from 5-15 years older corresponding with the alternate timelines and to sync-up with current events in a world where Mirai met an Overseer (of the universe) and left the universe after a climatic event transcending everything the Polaris Family could ever hope to control.

Aizah's reputation is not that of some evil clingy ex, the faceless daughter of the king, nor some jealous brat from the other side of the map.

As far as everyone is concerned, she is brave warrior and necromancer with potential rivaling, if not outright surpassing Serena & Mirai with the public expectation she will reign prosperity for all in Buxiu.

Mandala Amores

A private investigator in the capital of Lotto; Altair City. A bustling city initially thought lost due to an unkept distortion leading to spatial collapse until mysteriously reappearing half a decade after the fact. Altair City has legally been quarantined ever since, but with how big a tourist attraction it has become it might as well not exist. Amores currently works with D-I-V-A to report on the current events of Altair City and notate potential leads to unraveling the cause behind these distortions.

Makena Pacia

The Witch of Volition. The first magus over the last thousand years to be born with opal blood; a conventional and physical death has become an impossibility for her. She rarely concerns herself with the magically inept, finding their repetitive inquiries and stereotyping to be extremely boresome and unrelatable. She often wonders if she was born in the wrong era, given how uncommon people like her are born these days.

Zelmira Talbot

The Witch of Sagacity. The oldest living magus known to the public, alleged to read the soul directly. She appears devoid of fear, knowing the fates of all she meets. Zelmira moves without a worry she may be cut down. As the eldest magus around, she often uptakes the responsibility of advising younger magus and commonfolk from meeting catastrophe. Unfortunately, her power has left her stigmatized as a bringer of doom instead, thereby resulting in people avoiding her gaze opposed to facing reality and heeding her words. Despite this, she continues to make the effort to communicate.

Karel Deighton

A small-town archivist destined to see the world's end. Having known his lot in luck since childhood, he is unsure to what extent it meant for something to end. However, his curiosity—his desire to see the end—overwrites how devastating a reality may await. He has recently begun working in Lotto, since he always heard stories about how active city life is. He sees Lotto as an opportunity to both witness and indulge in the chaos himself.

Valor Amantea

Leader of D-I-V-A; a talent scouting agency dedicated to cultivating their agents' spirits. Defending Intravenous Anomalies: Entitling the protection of those with special traits. He seeks to prevent any unnecessary losses while investigating the correlation between the surge of anomalies and distortions that been littering Lotto the last couple decades. Valor has promised himself he would manage to solve one of the two issues plaguing Lotto without dwelling into extremist solutions before he bids this world farewell.

Ingrid Alzheimer

A former agent of D-I-V-A who went missing five years ago after refusing to follow orders and return to headquarters, only to popup again in Altair City with the unfounded ability to close distortions in space ten times faster than before as she knows where to go in advance. And unlike the residents of Altair City, Ingrid has by at least a couple years compared to everybody else who returned relatively unchanged since disappearing. However, when questioned about this, Ingrid claims her memory is hazy apart from feeling as though her body was no longer her own given how much her power shot up. Though Ingrid chose to resign from D-I-V-A specifically to try and recall what happened back then but promised to continue giving aide, seeing how the nature of distortions was starting to change.
