==Summary==
Tenjian is an antagonist in Azure Striker Gunvolt 2. Tenjian was born in China, and his parents left him in an orphanage when he was born. The owner of the orphanage, unlike many people in the country, cared dearly for him. In that orphanage, Tenjian also met Zonda, the two eventually seeing one another as brother and sister. Eventually, the owner of the orphanage died, leaving Tenjian, Zonda and all of the other orphans on the street, where all of them but Tenjian and Zonda eventually died. Eventually, a man offered Tenjian and Zonda food. But, unfortunately for Tenjian, this apple was poisoned and he almost died. When he miraculously recovered, Tenjian went on a rampage, freezing everyone and everything in the city bar himself and Zonda. The two eventually founded Eden, the Adept supremacist group, with Tenjian becoming the second-in-command.

Tier: 
Name: Tenjian, "The Frozen Blade"
Origin: Azure Striker Gunvolt 2
Gender: Male
Age: 17
Classification: Adept
Powers and Abilities: 
<tabber>
|-|Abilities=
*Adept Physiology: Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Rage Power/Empowerment (Adepts can increase the output of their Septima through intense emotions, usually through anger, as a child, Tenjian was able to freeze a large area that even as an adult, he could not achieve), Extrasensory Perception (Adepts can detect the Septimal waves of other Adepts, can see and hear Joule as a spirit)
*Permafrost: Ice Manipulation (At Below Absolute Zero, overcoming the domain of thermodynamics to steal the elasticity and pliability of all kinds of molecular structures, causing them to shatter where they stand)
**Matter Manipulation (Simply coming into contact with his blades causes one's molecular structure to lose pliability, letting Tenjian shatter them where they stand)
**Weapon Creation (Creates several weapons out of ice)
**Flight (At several points in his boss fight, via freezing the air to act more solid)
**Limited Heat Manipulation (His Septima allows him to freeze objects and overcome the boundaries of thermodynamics) 
*Seven Slashes: Time Manipulation, Soul Manipulation, Spatial Manipulation, Death Manipulation, Existence Erasure, Conceptual Manipulation (Type 3) and Non-Physical Interaction via Seven Slashes (When powered up to it's utmost limits, his Septima can freeze concepts / existences like Space, Souls and Time within his Ice, and can kill these things in his opponent, guaranteeing he kills his opponent should the attack land. Since he freezes time with this, this also counts as Time Stop on the opponent if they are hit by it)
*Other: Can ignore Elemental Intangibility with Frigid Blossom and Seven Slashes and Weapon Mastery (Skilled in the usage of several types of bladed weapons)
|-|Resistances=
Resistance to Absolute Zero (Completely unaffected by touching his swords), Poison Manipulation (Survived eating a poisoned apple intended to kill him in his youth), Life Manipulation (Powerful Adepts are able to resist the effects of Ferrous Fangs, which instantly kill all organic beings), Biological Manipulation and Limited Absorption (Should be capable of surviving Stratos's bugs), Limited Brainwashing (Since Septima is greatly influenced by an Adept's mental state, it is difficult to perform brainwashing without the power of the Muse on a rampaging Adept)
</tabber>
Attack Potency: At least Mountain level+ (Was able to fight Gunvolt and Copen, and killed the former, who wouldn't have survived had it not been for Joule. Froze over an entire city, and coils the cold waves involved in the feat to attack his enemies with its full power). Able to ignore conventional durability via molecular freezing, and to a greater extent with Seven Slashes
Speed: Relativistic+ travel speed with FTL+ combat speed and reactions (Comparable to Gibril and Teseo, who fought Jota and Merak. Can keep up with Gunvolt and Copen. In Azure Striker Gunvolt 3, kept up with Kirin.)
Lifting Strength: Class M (Comparable to Milas)
Striking Strength: At least Mountain level+ (According to his Dangeki Profile, lightly coils the same cold waves used to freeze cities around his blades for ice cold attacks)
Durability: At least Mountain level+
Stamina: Very High. Over a short time he invaded Sumeragi, fought Gunvolt, froze over a city before fighting Gunvolt/Copen in said city.
Range: Extended Melee Range, several meters with projectiles. Several kilometers with Permafrost (Able to freeze over an entire city)
Standard Equipment: His Grimore, a book that increases his power with the power of a Muse Shard. Several blades that are wrapped with his city freezing "cold waves" at below absolute zero temperaturesAzure Striker Gunvolt 2 Nintendo Dengeki Profile.
Intelligence: Likely Gifted. Is the co-founder and chief strategist of Eden. Has a strong talent and ability for swordsmanshipAzure Striker Gunvolt 2 Nintendo Dengeki Profile.
Weaknesses: Tenjian is very overconfident, and is stubbornly hateful of humanity. He will die if he uses Seven Slashes.
Notable Attacks/Techniques:<tabber>
|-|Septima: Permafrost=
One of the most powerful Septima, and quite hard to handle, Tenjian's Septima gives him power over ice. More specifically, it allows him to to molecularly freeze things below absolute zero instantaneously, whether it be the air or the ground. While the ice can be sharp, and tough enough to encase the likes of Gunvolt and Copen, its main property of the ice is its obvious ability to surpass the domain of thermodynamics and freeze anything to temperatures below absolute zero, so much below absolute zero that it causes anything that contacts it to lose pliability, elasticity, and become brittle, collapsing and shattering immediately upon itself. The amount of forms this ice can take are numerous, but most notably, Tenjian prefers to manifest blades of ice known as the Seven Stars Ice Blades, which are already extremely sharp, and work perfectly for his master swordsmanship he had picked since he was a child. With just a fraction of the Muse's power, his freezing capabilities are so potent, that he was capable of freezing entire cities, and lightly coils these city freezing waves around his blades to overcome his Septima's weakness, which was its high radius of effect. But his Septima's power does not stop at freezing at below absolute zero, given that he would be willing to die, he can freeze to even lower "temperatures" at the cost of freezing his very self at the same temperatures, so much so that he could trap and freeze time, space, and even the souls of oppositions before shattering them apart.
|-|Notable Attacks=
*Permafrost (Attack): Tenjian freezes an area of his choosing with his Septima, even many meters away when he was nowhere in sight. Even without the Muse's power, he was able to trap people's legs in ice. It is seen as his main tactic to get the advantage in environment, making the floor more slippery.
*Shadow Ice Cut: Tenjian slashes at his foe, creating a wall of ice in the slash's wake, before attempting to thrust at the opposition
*Ice Chakram: Tenjian throws two chakrams made of ice that spin around and boomerang back to him. He will usually follow up this attack by charging directly at his foe
*Freezing Splitting Slash: Tenjian dashes at his foe, creating ice spikes on the ground. Tenjian then proceeds to jump up very high and come down on his foe with a sword.
*Cyrokinetic Boomerang: Tenjian throws a double edged sword around the area before rushing towards his opposition with a slash, similar to his Ice Chakram attack
|-|Skills=
Tenjian's Skills push himself and his Septima to their limits to deal some of the most devastating damage among all Adepts.
*Frigid Blossom: Tenjian gathers his power and flies into the air. Tenjian then proceeds to try and flash freeze where his enemy is standing, and should he miss, try again multiple times one after another. If he succeeds, the enemy is trapped in a large snowflake and Tenjian slashes downward at them. With the floor being slippery due to his Septima, this is quite hard to dodge.

*Seven Slashes: Tenjian gathers a massive amount of power and proceeds to try and flash freeze an area where his foe is standing. If he misses, the place that was being frozen is turned into pure ice. This usually causes his foe to be trapped in a cage of ice. Tenjian then proceeds to flash freeze most if not all of that cage. If any of these strikes hit, Tenjian's foe is trapped in a snowflake. Tenjian then slashes seven times. His willingness to die pushes his Septima's power to the point where the ice he creates trap, freeze, and shatter concepts such as Souls, Time and Space, killing foes in one shot for sure. This attack is the very one Tenjian used to kill Gunvolt. If Tenjian uses it, he will die to his Septima's power freezing himself and shattering his own body.

Note: It is a common misconception that Tenjian only created the Frozen City though multiple uses of his Septima based on his stage gimmick suddenly freezing parts of the hotel you are infiltrating, as well as claiming this feat to be only Environmental Destruction. However, several pieces of evidence contradict this idea: 
*Tenjian has taken refuge in a hotel, and only starts freezing parts of it when Gunvolt/Copen actually reach the building. There is no reason for him to freeze his own base of operations where his own men could be hurt at the start of their city freezing operation.
*Tenjian's Septima is stated to be an instaneous "wide-range" Septima, meaning it is meant to affect large radiuses such as cities.
*In the description for how much the Muse Shard had obtained powered him up, the Dengeki Profile directly compares how much of an area he was able to affect before and after the power up, no other factor, stating that he can now freeze entire cities. ("Before he can only freeze a small spot, now he can freeze a city")
*Whenever Tenjian freezes any amount of area, he always does it in a "flash-freeze" manner, meaning instant freezing across the entire target area, shown in his Notable Techniques gifs.
*Tenjian notably coils the "cold waves", that are once again stated to freeze entire cities, around his swords to apply to his enemies
*QUILL and Copen have the resources to gain the latest news at basically any time, evidenced in GV2 Gunvolt Route's Intermission, where Gunvolt was able to get news on Ghauri thrashing the highway with multiple crystals. If Tenjian was freezing one area at a time, Gunvolt and Copen would have responded immediately way before Tenjian was finished, instead, they only get the news already after Tenjian manages to freeze it, which only makes sense if he did it all at once.
