Nalzgeis

About
Nalzgeis is an extremely powerful mage that serves under Buron, greatly feared for her unmatched magical powers and her cold nature, well-known for exterminating all her enemies without batting an eye. She's typically called "Buron's Guardian Deity", since her moving fortress resides in the canyon that borders the territories between two of the biggest nations, Buron and Sigmason. She's an incredibly silent   and emotionless  girl that almost never talks and when she does it's only  an affirmative and blunt "Yes" to  affirm others questions or statements.

The fortress where Nalzgeis belongs has an impecable reputation for remaining completely undefeated, and since the canyon is a stretch passage with little options but fighting, no-one has ever been able to enter in Buron's territory from the east by force. The fortress is led by the Wizard Zabus, who is Nalzgeis' only boss. Commanding an elite team conformed by Nalzgeis, the Knight Dashirom and Valentine, the fortress has never lost a battle and word of the might of Nalzgeis has turned her into one of the most imposing figures in the current warring era.

During the events of Mamatoto, the small country Mamatoto set their sights towards Buron and attempted to cross the path claimed to be impenetrable. While the small army led by the General and Prince Nanas Alphoria was hesitant and nervous of facing the famous Witch, they were confident that they would be able to win and crossed the path directly towards her Fortress. Zabus, aware of the direct challenge the country had given them, accepted it and deployed an unit led by Dashirom to fight the opposing army. However, their Ace, Nalzgeis, was not deployed, which confused and concerned Mamatoto's side until their alert and observant tactician Nanas managed to find out their strategy and found Nalzgeis attacking Mamatoto's Heart, the core of the fortress that would immediately make it fall apart if it was destroyed. He quickly moved all of his top available commanders to fend against the Witch of Buron, who used a magic spell to make clones of herself and proved to be an incredibly tough opponent. The group managed to repel her attack and she withdrew for the time being. Night arrive and the battle stopped, with the two fortresses avoiding to make a move at night. Nanas realized that this strategy is how they managed to defeat their enemies up until now, but that it was probably hardly all they had up their sleeve and they had to be more cautious than ever.



The following day, Nanas visited the throne room with Stourin and his father Kakaro to converse about the upcoming battle, and debate about the best course of action. However, mid-conversation, they were surprised by a Magical Nuke launched by the Witch Nalzgeis to Mamatoto's throne room, bringing tremendous damage to the fortress in the process. Nanas woke up immediately after to find his mentor, Stourin Wald, covered in blood and mortally wounded, noticing that he covered him from the attack as he remained mostly unharmed. He worriedly checked on his father as well but he soothed when he noticed he was unharmed, albeit unconcious. Nalzgeis then headed to attack Mamatoto through the hole now opened in the Throne Room, along with a platoon she commanded. Nanas immediately responded by summoning his own commanders to fight off the witch in a battle where he was present himself. Being forced to protect their weak General, Mamatoto's commanders didn't have an easy fight against Buron's Guardian Deity, but they managed to come out victorious thanks to the leadership provided by Nanas and Nalzgeis was finally defeated, being captured and locked in Mamatoto's prison as a result. Having lost their trump card, Nanas led the remaining members of Mamatoto's army to invade the opposing fortress this time, robbing them from their undefeatable status for good.

After the long fighting was over, she was visited by Nanas in the prison cell, where Mocha was as scared as confused by her due to her dreaded reputation, but the fact that she remained completely impasible and just remained in silence without moving. She's accompanied by a strange-looking animal that is bird-like in appearance, but she doesn't respond to Nanas at all and is a completely one-sided conversation, which results in it being really awkward for him. Nanas intended to convince her to join Mamatoto and help them to unite the continent and, much to everyone's surprise, she agrees to join and fight as a Mamatoto Commander, although she still remained mostly in silence without saying anything to Nanas.

From this point, Nalzgeis remains with Mamatoto as a commander and follows all his orders in the battlefield, but remains a completely irresponsive individual that holds no conversations with anyone else.

Personality and Appearance
Nalzgeis is an incredibly serious and dull person who doesn't talk at all. Despite this, she still comes out as an extremely attractive woman, making apparent that her status as "Goddess" doesn't just come from her advanded magical power. With a long dress opened in the belly, a perfect hourglass figure, and a beautiful pair of golden eyes, she's a woman that would be described as gorgeous by any sane man. She has a long and beautiful green hair and dresses in an almost divine fashion.

Her personality makes her look very mysterious and intriguing due to her lack of communication, and doesn't seem to hold affective feelings for anyone, as she was willing to swap sides immediately after her fortress was defeated and joining Mamatoto instead for no apparent reason. The only one she seems to be attached to is the creature that accompanies her all the time. He's protective with her and drives away those that molest her, grumbling to them by making sharp and loud noises. Nanas tried to futilely talk with her to know her better, as he believed that as the General, it was his responsability to get to meet and relate properly with his subordinates, but he saw little success as he barely responded to him and only resulted in awkward and uncomfortable scenarios for him.

Abilities
Being the woman known as Buron's Guardian Deity, her power as a mage is obscenely high, so powerful that many look up to her as a Goddess. In battle, she makes use of her incomparable magic power by wielding a strange-looking item to channel her powerful magic. She makes use of Water Magic above all, assaulting enemies with huge waves of water and razing with huge numbers of enemies. Her damage is incredibly high and can make use of special magic attacks, such as a cloning technique to split herself into multiple water clones to attack enemies on different locations, although these are likely weaker than the original.

Her standout move is a unique attack of her own that lunches an incredibly devastating long-ranged water wave to destroy all her enemies in a front line. The raw damage of this attack is certainly high, but what makes it more impressive is the absurd reach of this ability, as the move continues her march indefinitely and is seemingly unstoppable, capable of attacking all the enemies it hits without loss of power. This move is so deadly it can be used to decimate armies, but enemies that have high endurance or magical resistance are perfectly capable of enduring it.

Her power as a mage is among the mightiest in the world, probably matched only by Kias Titalas and Kavachahn the Lightning, yet she probably holds much greater talent and potential than they do, since they are highly experienced and powerful mages that have gotten where they are after many years of training and self-improvement. Nalzgeis carries an incredible talent and innate potential that allows her to be around their level despite being in her twenties.

Nalzgeis biggest weaknesses are that of a typical spell-caster, being a fragile fighter with little agility and endurance, very vulnerable to fighters once in close-range. Also, while her magic is very powerful, with the exception of her special move, water magic lacks high range and requires her to get relatively close to her targets, forcing her allies to protect her.

Nanas Route (Good)
In Nalzgeis' Route, Nanas will start regularly visiting Nalzgeis. He is very thankful to Nalzgeis for using her power to aid Mamatoto in their dream. Despite the irrensponsive disposition of the Witch, Nanas will still chat with her on his own, trying to develop more solid relationship with her. In their conversations, Nanas will be the one that would do all the talking, with Nalzgeis just remaining in silence listening to him. He sometimes asks her questions about her, hoping to get to know her better, but Nalzgeis wouldn't respond as well, which Nanas thinks is because she doesn't want to talk about her personal life with him and that it's understandable. He notes the strange bird that is with her at all times, who holds a wary disposition towards Nanas but not entirely hostile.

At some point, Sabuz, who had ran away after the defeat his Fortress faced in Mamatoto's battle against Nalzgeis fortress, will present himself in Mamatoto, desiring to talk with the most important figures of the small nation. He claims to be Nalzgeis' master and that he carries knowledge to make the most of her power and skill. Nanas, Stourin and Kakaro receive the former Chief of the Undefeatable Fortress, curious to listen to what he has to say. Sabuz claims to be the one that created the figure of Nalzgeis the Witch. In the past, he came across a young Nalzgeis that showed an absurd magical potential and noticed the incredible force she could become, however, she was a very kind and harmonious girl, described as a completely pure individual that wouldn't harm a fly. In order to turn her into a powerful weapon, Sabuz casted a secret spell on her to seal her [Heart], robbing her from emotions and feelings. Sabuz would reclaim ownership over her, becoming a puppet that follows all the orders given to her by her master. Incapable of feeling anything, she became the ruthless Deity that is now so feared in the world. Sabuz claims that Nalzgeis would follow any command, regardless what it is, and attempts to convince Nanas to join to Mamatoto's army so that he can use Nalzgeis for war, since he's the one that knows everything about her and how to properly use her. He also tries to persuade them by saying that she would also practice any type of sexual intercourse she was ordered to as well. Despite the fact that Sabuz portrays these things as wonderful and magnific, Nanas and Stourin will be disgusted by him and will order to have him imprisoned instead before letting him finish talking, much to Sabuz's rage.

Immediately after, Nanas will run to Nalzgeis' location, aware of the truth behind her strange and seemingly apathetic behavior, he will try to talk again with her. Nanas feels crushed by the revelation and is touched by her state of affairs, which leads him to promise her that he would release her from her curse by finding her [Heart]. Nalzgeis remains unmoved and listens to Nanas as he starts getting tearful. He claims to do all in his power to restore her [Heart], claiming that he wants to be able to talk to her, to listen to her voice and to meet her true self. Despite the lack of emotions she carries, Nanas is schocked upon raising his head to encounter the irrensponsive Nalzgeis weeping over his statement. While she lacks a [Heart] Nanas notes how there's still emotions within her and that the sorrow she's going through must be unimaginable, proceeding to further emphasize on his promise. This scenery caused the bird on Nalzgeis' shoulder to change his disposition, revealing to be capable of communication. He presents himself as Capra and claims to be "Abel's Guardian". He states that he decided to trust in Nanas after seeing his legitimate will to help Nalzgeis recover her [Heart], and that he will support him in doing so. He reveals that "Nalzgeis" is a name created by Sabuz to serve as a powerful and fearful name, and that her real name is "Abel", stating that in his opinion "it's much better". Despite his will to help, Capra lacks knowledge over where Abel's [Heart] was sealed in, and that the only one that knows that is Sabuz.

Knowing this, Nanas will start visiting Abel regularly to give her company, as he knows that even though she's incapable of expressing her feelings, she's still able to feel them and spends time with her everyday and that she needs to have hope that he will be able to somehow restoring her [Heart]. Capra converses with him as well. According to him, Abel's heart is sealed through a magic spell in a bottle but its location is only known by Sabuz. In order to find a way to restore her [Heart], Nanas will also go to Sabuz's prison cell to try to convince him to reveal its location. Sabuz at first will be confused by the request, wondering why would he want to turn Nalzgeis back into a peaceful entity instead of the Magical Warring Goddess she is now. However, Sabuz will let a loud laugh after thinking that Nanas must have fallen in love with her, making fun of him and remarking to him that she's nothing but a doll and that he has already violated her body several times himself. With little pride or shame, Nanas will start begging him to tell him the location of Abel's [Heart] but he will refuse to do so. Sabuz's lack of intention to give him the location of her [Heart] is clear when he starts asking for impossible demands in exchange of the information, like granting him total control of Mamatoto, which Nanas obviously can't grant. Just to make fun of him, as he still holds an intense grudge over Nanas since he's the man that defeated him, he continuously asks him fussy requests everyday. Capra is very annoyed by this, expressing his irritation over the situation, since Nanas is forced to lower himself to mundane tasks in a hopeless attempt to restore Abel's [Heart]. He claims that he has no idea even how the bottle that keeps Abel's [Heart] sealed looks, but that he feels that he would be able to recgonize it on the spot if he saw it.
