Sequence Destroyer

A Sequence Destroyer is an individual who has been given the privilege of being one of the elite in the Sequence Intelligence Agency, the mark being the Nex Exitium they wield. They are among the strongest the Novus Orbis Sequentia has to offer in their ranks, receiving specialized missions from their leaders.
==Information==
They are tasked with hunting down high-profile targets and erasing or capturing them. Their weapons are always synthetic Exitium, with the only Destroyer to hold a true Exitium being Akuhei himself.
The Sequence Destroyers are a division that comes from the studies of the original Destroyers in the Third War, repurposed for the system’s uses in combating powerful Irregularities, and were outside of logic themselves. Each of them are typically proficient Boundary Manipulators, have incredibly high ars magus aptitude, or other desirable traits that would make them compatible with some of the most advanced form of Ars, the Nex Exitium. 
It isn’t known where the strength of an Exitium comes from, only that they are regulated by the System and they use technology very similar to Seithr Cores. There is always a price to wield their weapons, and along with this, a certain level of synchronicity and aptitude required for a Destroyer. The less synchronicity they have with their weapons the harder it is on them to wield them, to the point it can completely destroy them, such as the case of N.Seven or Negaeru. Akuhei is the only Destroyer to have perfect synchronicity with Leviathan, allowing him to use it without any drawbacks. 
Sequence Destroyers typically don’t get along with the Council Templar as they tend to have differing views on those the idea of ‘Order’ and those who they hunt after. Most Sequence Destroyers have lost their touch with the world around them or simply don’t care, often lacking in emotions with one or two feelings in particular being what fuels them and their weapon letting that be the single thing to bring joy to their hollow souls. A very rare exception is one of its leaders, Yyntal Sorairo who was one of the few to out-will his own Exitium.
Exitium carried by the Sequence Destroyers have limiters placed on them, but they serve as stern methods to enforce the system's 'Order' and keep them from going berserk or experience complications with the connection of an Exitium and its wielder. Officially, the Destroyers are deployed by the system as required. However, some higher ups can also request their involvement, such as Lukain. Akuhei in particular cannot intervene without its permission, as Leviathan is heavily restrained. 
Although Agnos and Kyana has traits similar to the Destroyers and are well capable of fighting on their level, they are not part of this division.
==History==
When the Third War ended it was determined that the requirement for a capable division for fighting future threats of Destructive Irregularities would be required. For this purpose, the original Destroyers, such as Yamaorochi were looked into and the Agency attempted to determine a means of utilizing their capabilities for the good of the world. Even though some of the militia forces could handle the Irregularities, the loses were considered too great. And in particular high threat level fugitives were still a problem and ones able to counter them were deemed needed by new Marshal, Lukain Necaros.
For this purpose, Marshal of the NOS, and several others would bring up the suggestion to consider going further with a project through the Exitium, entrusting them to those who have synchronicity and aptitude with the sources of the Exitium’s power. However this source is something that is greatly kept in secrecy by the SIA, and additional regulators were implemented into each of the Exitium designs. 
This project would officially lead to the experimental SIA-run division of Destroyers when it only contained a few individuals, among them, Akuhei who's Leviathan belonged to one of the originals, Yamaorochi. The fledgling division of Sequence Destroyers to be agents of the System were officially deployed during the events of the Phantom Operations in 2386 when a project involving the Boundary Management System was taking place. Because of the importance of it and the confidentiality, the Destroyers were seen as a important inclusion in order to determine if such a group would be useful in practice. With the Destroyers and Exitium successfully allowing Izanagi to be liberated during the events of the Calamity of Izanagi, including the downfall of an incredibly dangerous Irregularity who surfaced here, Lukain instilled their importance to the NOS and the Agency’s remnants officially saw requirement for them becoming a necessity. From that moment on, many individuals were brought into the program, but it has led to controversial researches as well.
Most history of the Destroyers and the projects that led to them is one kept in secrecy by the SIA itself. 
==Plot==
The Sequence Destroyers are antagonists and a large focus in the third verse of Control Sequence, being a threat in Nex's pursuits for the truth from the heart of their operations in the Sequence Intelligence Agency. 
They also have a arc of Rebellion Sequence dedicated to the four who first met and pursued Nex initially as a child while he was guarded by the Rogue Sector ally Imyo. The four who were summoned by Lukain for this mission are Rythrean, Arcius, Faulheir and Serza who were overseen by Akuhei. 
==Known Sequence Destroyers==
*The Primicerius - The so-called Strongest of the Destroyers and leader of the Sequence Intelligence Agency as a whole, who is admired and respected by many. He serves the system with his whole essence, believing it to be the 'god' of their world. The last Primicerius was the leader of the Izanagi Agency and he serves as the replacement. Maintains the most dangerous Exitium which is used by the System directly, and can "Destroy" almost any possibility.  
*Akuhei - The Underworld Serpent. The General of the SIA and easily one of the strongest of the Sequence Destroyers, one of the only who hold a true Exitium. Most of the others will listen to his order without hesitation, due to his overwhelming presence and cruel natures. Wields Leviathan and doesn't get along with the Primicerius in the slightest. He has no mental effects from the Exitium, due to being in complete control and synchronized with it. 
*Arcius - The Blood Reaver who has a thing for making bloodshed and probably has a bit too much fun with his work, living for the thrill of fighting. He tends to work with Akuhei directly and often time supervises Agnos treating him a lot like a kid. Wields Belial. When Belial is overpowering, he becomes crazed and vicious, lacking any sense of reason whatsoever.
*Faulhier - A rather lazy member of the Sequence Destroyers, and one who is known as the Crimson Ripper. Initially he can't be bothered to fight, but if something riles him up, he is an absolute terror on the field of battle who shreds apart his foes without concern. Wields disembodied fang-knives called Cresil. When he is overpowered mentally, he will become incredibly greedy and drain everything out of a foe. 
*Rythrean - A haunting yet dutiful young woman of the Destroyers, a Prime Field Device known as the Cerise Reaper. She is the most mature of her group, rarely losing her composure. She wields a transforming spectral scythe and scissor-like blades called Styx whose chain threads that she uses to symbolize ones life force can trap opponents. Although dignified, is absolutely ruthless to those who interfere with her superior's goals. It is rare for her to be overcome by her weapon, but when it happens she can become sociopathic and lose her calmness. 
*Tsureta - A golden-eyed man who naturally knows Sorcery, he uses it to toy with opponents and enjoys feeling a sense of being above most of the humanity. He loves being cryptic to annoy even his teammates, talking in an archaic language on purpose. He's a bit enigmatic, however, even to his fellow Destroyers. 
*N.Seven - An Azure Interface Primefield whose alternations from most models have put her in a field of her own, she tends to be a bit too unstable and violent for normal jobs, so she works with a specialized experimental unit at times. She hates it when things don't go her way, and prefers to toy with enemies. But she has a serious thing about destiny and following it to gain power. She wields Helel, and is always overtaken by it when in combat. 
*Magnus Kiyomeki - A calculative and imperious member of the Destroyers who is well-versed in Fire Magic from his genepool. Magnus prefers to be in battle more than the office. He handles a lot of the busy work, but he is easily one of the stronger Destroyers who gives most of the others a hard time, and tends to make a competition out of everything - constantly refining his technique. Oddly is one of the more merciful types, though he always makes a point to make others feel terrible about their weaknesses. Wields Horus, a winged auto-flying avian-like metal unit. 
*Negaeru - Known as the Huntress, Negaeru is a unit who serves strict stealth, combat or assassination missions. Wields Flauros, a deadly set of claws possessed by some kind of irregular creature's essence that takes hold at times. 
*Beleth - A boy in the destroyer's division, who is actually a Nex Exitium. Despite being considered a child, he is actually a horror to behold in battle, and is known as the Metal Monstrosity. Very shy and quiet, and doesn't enjoy fighting, but his core will take hold over him in combat.
*Yyntal Sorairo - Reiga's father who is one of the few to have maintained sanity among the Destroyers he works with. His will is incredibly strong, but has a few issues with his own guilt, especially when he's placed against others in his own government. Bears the Exitium known as Gadreel.
==Others==
*Agnos - Code-named Righteous Red, he was raised by the SIA and is considered a Destroyer-in-training. Though he doesn't seem to hold much interest in anything, even his position. He's been raised by most of the Destroyers, but he has no true opinion of his own yet. He spends his time with Azure Interface Primefield, like his partner, Kyana, feeling he better relates to them. He doesn't care for Akuhei at all. 
*Kyana - A Prime Field who serves the Primicerius alongside Agnos, known as the Anothen Onlooker. She is a specialized Prime Field meant to counter most all forms of Destructive Irregularity and even the Scourge itself, made to be a perfect weapon against them, though she cannot fight the Azure Grimoire, which has created a flaw in this idea. Wields a prototype alteration of the Murakumo she wields like a sword. 
==Former==
*??? - Simply called the God Destroyer in history, admired by many and was referred to as a force of divine destruction to bring rebuke to all who tried to oppose them. A primary force behind the NOS's power, with god like power taking on attempts at putting the world in jeopardy in their ambitions to stop the NOS. He died during the Phantom Operations. 
*??? - The God Destroyer's partner. She was also like her leader a force to be reckoned with, and was the Azure Interface Primefield known as 'One'. Called the Goddess of Judgement who was heavily entwinned with the system itself. 
*Akuhei Yamaorochi - The former owner of the current Akuhei's weapon, he was a terror on the field, an embodiment that struck fear and death into any and turned their hope into dust along with their body. However he is revered as a legend like the others, as without their efforts the world would be in another state. 
*Serza - The Former member of the SD Division was once Akuhei's partner in the SIA, known as the Eye of Yamaorochi and Infernal Viper. He is a bit of an enigmatic sort who is ambigious in all his actions, and is very sensitive to the forces of desires within others. Participated in hunting after Nex during Rebellion Sequence. He holds the long katana-like Nex Exitium: Cruciatus Colubra: Ophius which can transform between solid and pure scourge of serpentine manifestations. Supposedly, it overtakes his mind and is responsible for his heinous actions he's taken. He becomes very lucid and sinister when it does this, and gains red reptilian eyes.
