Profile[]
Introduction[]
A member of the enigmatic group who call themselves Gematria, a master manipulator and a terrorist. She is an adult and, much like Sensei, is an outsider to Kivotos. She is the newest member to Gematria who views Sensei as an antagonistic being that must be eliminated, unlike the other members of Gematria who adopt a neutral or positive stance towards Sensei.
Beatrice was also Arius's student council president before she was defeated by Sensei. She was responsible for ceasing the long-ongoing civil war in Arius which allowed her to assume control over Arius. Gaining control over Arius allowed her to do whatever she wanted with them, leading to her manipulating them by telling them the "truth" that it was Trinity's fault they are suffering and torturing those who disobeyed her teachings, resulting in the vendetta Arius is commonly known for nowadays. Atsuko, who was originally supposed to be the president, was made into a sacrifice by Beatrice for The Iridescence to "ascend into a higher being." Although this sacrifice was postponed for several years by a deal made between Saori and Beatrice, the sacrifice proceeded due to Saori failing her end of the deal, which was later found out that it was going to happen regardless of the deal's status.

Beatrice was also responsible for leading Kivotos to its demise by leading The Iridescence to Kivotos through the sacrifice she failed to make. As the Iridescence arrived, it took control of all of Gematria's creations, resulting in Gematria's temporary disbandment. Beatrice was also banished from Gematria due to her motives no longer aligning with Gematria's goals. |
Personality[]
Unlike the other members of Gematria, who have some sort of artistic integrity in their own way, Beatrice views artistry as useless when there is power to gain. She doesn't consider the artistry nor the passion put behind the other members' research and work, going so far as to even insult them despite the aid they've been providing her, leading to their dislike towards her. She is also considered a power-hungry sociopath, always trying to gain more power and obliterate anything that stands in her way, regardless of the consequences that can occur. She also aims to ensure that not even a sliver of hope remains in her domain, hence her decision to eliminate all the remains of the old Arius school that can instill hope onto the students.
She sees Sensei as a major enemy with extreme and obsessive animosity, wanting to destroy them at all costs.
Appearance[]
Beatrice has red skin and wears an absurdly long white dress. Her head resembles a white flower that hasn't bloomed yet, with multiple eyes peeking out.
Trivia[]
- In V3C4E5, Golconde proposed the idea of turning Sensei into one of them, much like what they did to Beatrice, implying that Beatrice was once human.
