Shizuka Masou

Born in ＧＩ999年7月30日

A powerful magic user who was one of the Four Witches of Kathtom. According to her teacher, Ragishss, Shizuka had the greatest talent of the four and was considered the strongest among his students. With the additional power gained from her ring, she became even stronger than Ragishss, whom she ended up killing during her betrayal.

She is very concerned with her father's death. Ever since Rance stopped her from altering the past during the events of the? Kathtom Incident, she has been trying to find her father's killer in order to seek revenge.

Despite the fact that Shizuka is one of ten girls who are fated for Rance, she hates Rance and will always try to kick him away whenever possible. But it appears that she still have some kind of soft spot for him, albeit often misused by the latter.

She was living with her best friend, Maria, as they were studying magic together and had a similar interest in magic, with Maria being on development side, and Shizuka on the research side.

Shizuka and Nagi are siblings, although not by the same father. Believing that Shizuka is her father's killer, Nagi keeps trying to kill her whenever there is a chance. Shizuka doesn't seem to share the same sentiment as she actually cares for Nagi, understanding her feelings because they both lost the most important person to them.

Rance 2


She is implied to be the leader of Four Witches of Kathtom who are responsible for the downfall of Kathtom. Her specialty is Fire Magic (or more precisely, offensive fire magic).

In the later events of the story, it's revealed that her true motive is to to alter history in order to prevent her father's death, though to no avail, since Rance stopped her right before she could change anything. It's unclear whether she was truly possessed by the ring's power as well as the other three since she appears conscious enough when Rance confronts her and has a self-motivated purpose to her magical escapades in her desire to change the past.

She participates directly in the last battle along with Rance,? Sill, and? Maria. Her task is to prevent Ragishss from casting any spells.

Rance 3
Shizuka is amongst the four Custom Heroines when they rescue Rance after he get's out of the Devil Dungeon, and fights alongside him to free Princess Lia. Although she fights off his advances and treats him with scorn at first, one of Rance's terms in exchange for him returning to the Army involves having Shizuka have sex with him.

It is likely that the events of Rance 3 was the start of Shizuka's genuine dislike for Rance.

Rance 4
Shizuka is amongst the team that is sent to rescue Rance from the Toushin Toshi.

Shizuka is captured by Bicchi during their search for Rance for her magic powers. Once she gives Bicchi what he wants, Bicchi then attempts to rape/torture her before being stopped by Hubert Lipton and set free.

She is later found behind a magic barrier that only lets mages past, and she claims that she wants to use the secrets within the Toushin Toshi in order to make her more powerful. In the middle of the ritual, Rance decides to molest and then have sex with Shizuka. When she awakes, she worries for a short while that the ritual has been botched thanks to Rance, but then realizes that she does indeed have the power of a Level 3 mage.

Unfortunately, however, she finds out that, in battle, she loses Experience instead of gaining it. This phenomena keeps happening until she undergos incredible pain, reducing her level past the point of what it usually was, and reverting to a level 2 mage. Of course, she blames Rance for this.

Kichikuou Rance
She joined along with Maria, Milli , Mill and Ran after Rance conquered Kathtom town.

Rance 6
After meeting Rance and Sill inside Zeth's National Magic Museum, Shizuka (and Maria, with whom she was visiting the Museum at the time) see themselves forced to take part in the resistance movement of Ice Flame, of which Rance and Sill were part of.

At first, Shizuka helps the group unwillingly, but after some time, she decides to use the Information Net in order to find her Father's murderer, Chenezale do Ragarl.

She finds out that Ragarl is in fact in Zeth, in one of the Towers of Four Heavenly Emperors. Nagi's tower to be more exact. There she discovers that she is actually Nagi's half sister, who due to jealousy towards Shizuka and unrequited love of her father (not entirely the regular father-daughter kind of love), Ragarl, is holding him captive in a glass container and with half of his body gone.

Shizuka loses to Nagi and is tortured by her little sister for some time until Rance arrives to her rescue. Once Nagi is defeated and Ragarl is dead, Shizuka helps the protagonists to fight against Kamilla's demon army. But not before Rance has his way with Shizuka after a long time, as a "reward" for helping her.

Mamanyonyo
She was summoned as a heroine.

Sengoku Rance



 * Shizuka is only available if player chose special character bonus at the start and have 1.03 patch installed.


 * Shizuka will only join if Maria is present.

It's not possible to improve her relation level nor to clear her character.

Due to her sister's trap, Shizuka is warped to JAPAN, in which she reunites with Rance. After telling the overall situation to Shizuka, Rance decides that she should stay and help, that is for Maria's sake as well. Given no choice but to agree, Shizuka decides to stay after emphasizing her reason to help is just for Maria.

While in JAPAN, Shizuka keeps training hard in order to get stronger. She believes that if she is stronger than Nagi, then both of them will always be alive at the end of a potential fight as she won't kill her no matter what, implying that she still feels guilty for the previous incident at Zeth during the events of Rance 6.

Rance Quest
She is persuaded into joining Rance's party during an encounter in the Malgreed Labyrinths. Deciding to make the best out of her situation, Shizuka takes advantage of Rance's curse to increase her skills by forcibly extracting and drinking a small amount of Rance's semen - this way she's able to afflict herself with the curse without having to have sex with Rance.
 * In this game she's one of only 3 sorcerers (2 if not including Magnum characters) in the game who have magic mastery with a 2-star rating, thus gaining access to highest tier of spells.
