this character is Acheron, a mysterious wanderer traveling the universe. Acheron takes on the title of Galaxy Ranger, a group of individuals following the path of the Hunt that enact justice across galaxies to protect people. Acheron's self-description appears to be a self-proclaimed title, however - she is not a member of the group, nor is Acheron her true name, lending further mystery to her identity. Still, it cannot be denied that Acheron is effective at what she does - when Acheron sets her mind to defeat a foe, their removal from the universe is often not far behind. Acheron originally hails from a world known as Izumo, a world in the shadow of IX, the Aeon of Nihility. Little is known about either Izumo or Acheron's past, but at some point, Izumo was attacked by extraterrestrial invaders known as the Yaoyorozu no Magakami. The people of Izumo were able to slay some of these Kami and manufacture blades known as Edict Edges to combat the Kami, however this caused the survivors, including Acheron to transform into "Oni." Izumo inevitably sank into the shadow of IX, annihilating the planet and all of its history. Acheron alone seems to be the sole survivor, wielding the Edict Edge known as "Origin", though rarely actually drawing the blade from its scabbard. Acheron is touched by the power of IX due to the effects on her homeworld, gaining the unenviable position of a Self-Annihilator, slowly losing her memories and senses to the inexorable pull of Nihility. Acheron comes across to many as detached. This is in large part due to the influence of IX on her, though it is also because she doesn't like to talk about herself or her past much. Acheron finds it difficult to recall what human sensations are like or past experiences, only finding temporary clarity in the rare instances where she draws her blade. Still, Acheron does not spurn the idea of working with someone else. She will assist others in their goals, perhaps adhering to her self-proclaimed Galaxy Ranger status. Her motivations for doing so, however, are as engimatic as she is herself. Acheron is fairly tall, with pale skin, almost giving her the appearance of a revenant. She has long, dark purple hair and violet eyes to match. Acheron wears a crop top covered by a white jacket with purple accents, resembling a kimono, and incredibly short shorts. Mismatched gloves and boots complete her main attire. Acheron has a tattoo of a red-and-purple flame on her left leg. Acheron's Edict Edge, "Origin", is contained in a massive scabbard and resembles an odachi. When Acheron does unsheathe "Origin", it causes her hair to turn white, her eyes to become red, and her attire to adopt a red-and-black color scheme. Time practically crawls to a standstill when Acheron draws her blade, thus explaining why she has never been known to unsheathe her sword. When describing Ix, the Aeon of Nihility, Acheron simply refers to them as **THEY**.
