Hadamas

## Appearance

A young adult woman with long, dark straight hair and gray eyes. She wears a stylish, customized white military uniform and has a military cap in her head, that she never takes off.

## Personality

Hadamas is a proud, battle-hungry young woman who above everything loves to have a good challenge in physical fights against powerful opponents. She can be hot-tempered, conflictive and arrogant when she desires, but knows to behave with discipline and professionalism when the situation is needed, as she greatly values military order.

She’s obsessed with fighting against Shen Solomon, trying to get him to battle her multiple times, even to the extremes of going to Tefra to challenge the core man. While Shen mostly thinks of her as an annoying brat, he admits her battle skills are genuine and would like to fight her one day, but as he feels she still has a long way before reaching his level, he lets her be, not wanting to waste a future strong rival.

Despite this, she’s not entirely heartless, as while she doesn’t really care about the greater good or world peace, she genuinely loves her family and friends and would do everything in her power to protect them. Despite her rather agitating nature, she’s loyal to the Ministry and would never betray it.

She has a surprisingly good relationship with Kuro and Illyricus despite their clashing personalities. She often hangs out with the Seven Heavenly Maids when she’s not working or annoying Shen, being more or less friends with them.

## History

During a certain battle against demons in the human world, angel commander Nuriel got wounded by her demonic adversaries in Italy. Left for dead, the demons didn’t check her corpse and retired. Gravely injured, Nuriel thought herself a dead woman until a kind human man named Antonio Fabbrini found her, treated her injuries and offered her rest in his house in a city of moderate size until she would recover. Despite being a cold and serious woman, Antonio’s diligent and kind personality won over her and little by little broke her cold exterior. They spent more and more time together, and eventually fell in love. Even though Nuriel returned to Heaven after her injuries healed, from time to time she sneaked to the human world to be with Antonio. Eventually, their love resulted in a baby girl, who they named Angela. Nuriel got heavily criticized in Valhalla, as relationships between angels and humans were looked down upon. She however ignored those who condemned her and kept acting as an angelic soldier while Antonio raised Angela on Midgard.

Little Angela grew the first years of her life as a normal girl with love and a firm admiration for her mother, whom she dreamed to be like one day. While not in school, she helped her father, a craftsman who made and sold glass products in a local street shop. At age 4 she awakened the ability to generate crystal and glass naturally. As it turned out, she wasn’t a normal girl, but a Nephilim, a hybrid between a human and an angel with access to the powers the angels normally boasted. Despite this, Angela kept living a normal life until age 6. At that point, a demon who heard rumors about how her father helped Nuriel came to the shop to kill him in revenge for helping his enemies. When his father was about to be killed by the foul creature, Angela used her powers offensively for the first time in her life, summoning a huge spear of crystal that pierced the demon to death, saving her father. That time Angela realized two things: one, that she, like her mother, could fight. The second; that she felt the same disgust towards demonic beings and the pleasure to slay them that all angels had on their instincts.

It was then that Angela, knowing more demons could come for her father again, trained and polished her ability to become stronger, her divine genes making her improve at surprisingly fast rates. And her fears turned out to be true. From time to time, denizens from Helheim appeared to ravage her city. But she was prepared to face them. Despite being a little girl, Angela inherited the talent for destruction and fighting of Nuriel, and managed to repel and delete the hordes of demons no matter how many of them were or the schemes they tried to take down on her. With the time, Angela became a celebrity in her city, being lauded as a heroine, a modern incarnation of Joan of Arc. But she didn’t care for praise or glory. She wanted to protect her city, family and friends, true, but there were some ulterior motives behind that. The angelic blood fully awakened in her, giving her the need to slay and destroy demons, the stronger the better. She became a battle maniac searching for strong opponents, but hid that side of her in order to avoid others from fearing her. The young girl knew she was a monster, but still didn’t embrace her nature to the fullest.

Not much time happened until the Valhalla council started to notice her and her heroics and, seeing potential in Nuriel’s child, decided to contact her to recruit her to her forces. Angela at first was doubtful, but her father encouraged her to do it, as that way she could save lots of people more and use her abilities for the greater good. Angela then accepted, but for a different reason. After all, joining the military of Valhalla would allow her to slay all the demons she could dream on and finally release herself from the good girl image she had maintained for most of her life. With this, at age 10 Angela became an angelic soldier, one of the youngest ever seen. She finally fulfilled her dream of fighting alongside her mother, and she soon standed out from other Nephilims and even angels. She was a calamity on the battlefield. Anytime she joined to fight, all the adversaries were left as crumbling, crystallized corpses. Her allies started to call her the “Crystal Saint”, while her enemies, fearing her mere presence and thirst for blood, gave her the more ominous nickname of “Glass Reaper”. When she was 13, she got to kill her first Demon Lord after a long, extenuating battle. Taking this as her “angelic baptism”, Angela renamed herself to a more heavenly name. She gave herself the name of “Hadamas”, in honor of the diamond, the toughest of minerals, as a way to show the power of her crystal. Closely after that, she was ascended to a celestial general, just like her mother.

However, with time, things stopped being fun. No matter what kind of enemies she would face, they would get destroyed so easily, battles ended as soon as they started. In her personal life, things weren’t ideal either. Some angels admired her, but others still despised her for condition as a Nephilim despite her numerous merits. With this, Hadamas’s life started to become more monotonous. She thought she was condemned to spend the entirety of her immortal life as a tool for Heaven to use in case of crisis, but one day that changed.

One strange man, a colossus of ash named Shen Solomon, suddenly arrived at Valhalla, descendant from Surtr’s spawn who was purged and banished eons ago. Hadamas was 18 then. The core man challenged the entirety of Heaven to a duel, specifically asking for the strongest fighter of Valhalla to face him. The one to answer his challenge was Hariel, a huge Archangel with an ability to become gigantic and cause earthquakes. Hadamas thought Shen would be crushed easily by the titanic strength of Hariel, but something surprising happened. When Hariel grew and punched Shen directly, the core man didn’t feel anything, rather, he looked at his opponent with a bored expression. With a swing from his halberd, he bisected Hariel into two, the humongous corpse of the Archangel falling dead to the ground and covering the floor with blood and guts. Disappointed, the core man left as fast as he arrived, no one daring to approach him. For Valhalla, this was one of their greatest humiliations in years, but for Hadamas, it was a new chance. It was said that she vowed to kill Shen in revenge for Hariel’s murder, but that would be a lie. As, after watching the carnage Shen caused, a sinister smile appeared on her lips.

For the young Nephilim, this incident sparked a new hope in her boring life. She finally saw someone who could be a challenge to her. She dreamed of finding Shen Solomon and having the battle to end all battles with him. Despite that desire, she kept serving Valhalla for a few years more. In one of her missions, she actually got to meet Shen Solomon again in person, but couldn’t get the fight she desired. She did however learn that Shen now worked for the Ministry, the super organization who governed Midgard. Hadamas wondered if, maybe, she could have her chance if she joined it, as her relationship with the angels except for her mother was merely professional and in some cases, a bad one.

She finally got contacted by one of the members of the Elite 4 of the Ministry, Kuro, along with the automaton Garnet, who were investigating her for a while and heard about her disillusion with Valhalla, offering her to join the Ministry. Hadamas wondered how they managed to contact her, but left it slide. After thinking about it for some days, she accepted the offer of the doctor and the automaton, with the condition that the Ministry would protect her father and city, as she knew Heaven could abandon them if she would leave her position. When she was in her early twenties, Nephilim general Hadamas announced her resignation from Valhalla to join the Ministry. The decision caused havoc in Heaven, many were sad for her departure, others harshly criticized her and others wanted to execute her on the spot, but finally the higher ups from Valhalla let her go. Surprisingly, her mother Nuriel didn’t mind it, saying it was good for her to follow her own path and wishing her luck.

Once joining the Ministry, Hadamas got the position of a military instructor and a general in the Cube thanks to her abilities in the battlefield, occasionally used as an ambassador from the Ministry in Valhalla. She started to pester Shen all the time with a battle, but so far, she hasn’t got the chance to fight him…
