**Lavinia Reni** is a Magician from Grauzauberer in possession of the Longinus, Absolute Demise known as both the **Demise Girl** and **Ice Princess**. She later allied herself with Grigori in order to hunt down Augusta who allied herself with the Utsusemi Agency.

## Appearance

Lavinia is a very beautiful young woman with a slim voluptuous figure with long blonde hair and sapphire blue eyes. Befitting her status as a magician, she is dressed in a witch robe with a cloak and a pointed witch hat.

Her body measurements are [B100-W59-H88 cm]; height [170 cm] and body weight [56 kg].

## Personality

Lavinia is a very kind-hearted and innocent woman, making it a habit of going into others' rooms whenever she's half-asleep at night, sleeping in both Natsume's and Tobio's room. She appears to also almost oblivious to her own beauty and how it affects the opposite sex as she didn't realize why Tobio was embarrassed after he found her almost half-naked in his bed wearing nothing but a dress shirt. She also does not mind being seen naked by Tobio, even offering to bathe together. She has a habit of calling people she's close to by affectionate nicknames, such as calling Tobio "Tobi" and Vali "Va-Kun". She also gives off an older sister impression, as shown when she scolded Vali in a gentle manner.

Despite her innocence and kind-hearted nature, Lavinia can also be cold and serious when the times comes as she had faced off against both Augusta and Walburga. This is could be due to the deep respect and love that she had towards her teacher/guardian who she suspected was attacked by the former, however, after hearing the truth being Glenda, she fell into an almost mental breakdown even stopping in the middle of her fight.

## History

At a young age of nine, Lavinia lost her parents in an accident and couldn't find any relatives who were willing to take her in due to her incessant mention of her "Doll", which no one could see. She later met Glenda, one of the Wizards of Oz who took her in and cared for her, teaching Lavinia magic since she had talent in it despite not coming from a lineage of magicians like others. As she reached the age of thirteen, Glenda convinces her to join the magician association of Grauzauberer in order to cultivate a rapport with fellow magicians of her own age.

## Plot

### Slash/Dog

#### Volume 1

Lavinia makes her first appearance in Volume 1, destroying an Utsusemi that confronted Tobio and Natsume. After she converses with Natsume briefly, they head towards their destination. At the place, Natsume introduces Lavinia to Tobio as an ally. As Natsume plays a DVD to explain the current situation to Tobio, Lavinia clarifies the meaning of the Utsusemi to Tobio.

The next morning, a scantily clad Lavinia sneaks into Tobio's bed, making him embarrassed. They briefly talk about Kouki and Tobio's Sacred Gear before Natsume interrupts them. As all three of them have breakfast which Lavinia finds delicious, she expresses a desire to give some to Vali. After they finish breakfast, they head out to search for Kouki. Although having difficulty due to an enemy technique, Lavinia pins down Kouki's location to a deserted departmental store, where the three of them split up after getting communication crystals created by Lavinia. Lavinia and Natsume are confronted by some Utsusemi, who they dispatch. They then move up to the fifth floor to meet up with Tobio, who has found Kouki. Afterward, they head to a meeting with Azazel.

The following day, Lavinia informs Tobio, Natsume, and Vali that it's time for breakfast, embracing Vali much to his embarrassment. Soon after, Tobio accidentally sees her and Natsume naked, with Lavinia being oblivious to the awkward atmosphere. After breakfast, they decide to the house of Sae Toujou to investigate. Splitting up into groups of two with Lavinia paired with Tobio, they search the house and end up seeing Sae and Hanezu Himejima, who ambushes them with members of the Utsusemi Agency. Tobio and Lavinia surrender to them as they are taken to the headquarters of the Utsusemi Agency.

At the headquarters, in an empty room, Hanezu releases Tobio and tells them to fight. Lavinia tells Tobio that she will not be able to directly help him so as not to potentially instigate Sae. As they fight, they are interrupted by the sudden arrival of Augusta, who Lavinia recognizes. She releases the power of her Longinus and engages Augusta in a battle of magic, telling Tobio to escape. A while later, she reveals that Augusta managed to escape and helps Vali and Azazel return a rampaging Balance Breaker Tobio to his normal state. Ten days later, she meets up with the rest of the group and explains the reason for her cooperation, that being the pursuance of the Wizards of Oz.

#### Volume 2

Two months later, Lavinia is shown with Kouki, Natsume, and Vali as they head to Tobio's room, where they find him in bed with Natsume. Lavinia covers Vali's eyes, telling him he wasn't old enough to see what was going on.

After breakfast where the misunderstanding is cleared up, Azazel arrives and takes the group to Nephilim. Lavinia and Vali are separate from them as both are not registered students there. Half a month later, Lavinia is seen at Nephilim, entering the men's changing room where she changes, oblivious to Tobio's embarrassment. She asks him about his match against Vali and encourages him after he feels down about his loss.

She tells him to resonate with his Longinus in body and soul but admits that she has not made progress with her Longinus as a result of her fear for it, and warns him to be careful of getting consumed and possessed by his Longinus. As Tobio asks her about Augusta, she moves closer and inadvertently exposes her body to him, indicating that Augusta is an enemy she must stop. As they stay in that position, Sae suddenly indicates her presence. Oblivious as usual to the situation, Lavinia encourages Sae to enter, who enters and notices their position, creating an awkward situation that Lavinia remains oblivious to.

The following Saturday, the team head into a shopping district in town, where Natsume forces Lavinia into some clothes, making her uncharacteristically embarrassed. She asks the males in the group about how she looks, blushing as Tobio replies positively. They go to the park downtown to rest, where Lavinia tells Tobio about the Wizards of Oz and her connection to them. They are interrupted by the sudden presence of Seiryu Kushihashi. As they prepare to engage in a fight, Lavinia warns the team about Seiryu's abilities and supports them by increasing their defense with magic.

The fight is interrupted by Barakiel, Vali, and Suzaku Himejima, who asks for a meeting. At the meeting, Suzaku asks for an alliance and asks about Augusta, to which Lavinia reacts negatively. Suzaku warns her about the dangers of getting too involved with the Grigori and Lavinia takes note of it.

Later, Lavinia goes with the rest of the team as they attempt to rescue the former classmates of Tobio, Natsume, Kouki, and Sae, who are being pursued by the remnants of the Utsusemi Agency and Wizards of Oz. On their way, Barakiel warns them about the danger ahead and Lavinia tells the team about her past, leading up to her current objective. They express their support for her, much to her happiness. As they get closer to their destination, Sae raises an alarm and Barakiel goes to investigate.

Lavinia watches on as Barakiel finds one of their targets, Shigune Nanadaru. Shigune warns them to escape, and they are soon confronted by a stone statue, who releases an intense light soon after Barakiel tells the team to close their eyes. It is revealed that the light can cause blindness, as a man reveals himself and expresses his desire to make them blind. Lavinia attacks him to no avail, but he is soon forced to retreat. Shigune tells them that the remaining classmate called Koga is fighting alone in the village.

Following that, they head towards the village for further investigation. After they feel a powerful aura determined to be that of Satanael, Barakiel separates from the team to handle him alone and gives the team further instructions. As they reach the location, Lavinia uses magic to illuminate the surroundings, revealing gruesome corpses which disgust the team. After finding Koga, they notice Augusta and several other magicians. Lavinia reveals that they've been surrounded while glaring at Augusta. Augusta expresses her delight at meeting Lavinia and Tobio again, causing the former to raise her fighting spirit and threaten to eliminate Augusta. Augusta then tells Lavinia to follow her, with the promise of giving her information about Glenda if she ends up victorious in their battle. Lavinia becomes conflicted on whether to follow Augusta or stay with her companions, and decides to go with the latter. However, after Natsume and the others encourage her to follow Augusta, Lavinia expresses her gratitude and heads towards Augusta's location.

As Lavinia battles Augusta, Tobio, Sae and Natsume reach their location. As Augusta starts to talk about the power dwelling within Sae, Lavinia warns her to not say anything that would upset Sae and Tobio. Augusta comments that it was as a result of Glenda's research, to which Lavinia replies that the Wizards of Oz forcibly extracted information from Glenda. However, Augusta claims that Glenda willingly did it, which confuses Lavinia. As Augusta explains further, Lavinia expresses her disbelief, leading Augusta to contact Glenda and tell her to address Lavinia. Glenda bluntly refuses to say anything meaningful to Lavinia and acknowledge their relation, leading Lavinia to suffer a mental breakdown. Augusta then takes advantage of Lavinia's mental instability to possess her body.

Later, after Augusta is defeated by the efforts of the other team members and removed from Lavinia's body, Lavinia regains consciousness in a hospital and reveals her resolve to confront Glenda and pursue the truth to the other team members, to which they express their support. Tobio addresses Lavinia without any honorifics, causing her to blush.

### High School DxD

#### The Legend of Oppai Dragon and his Lively Companions

Lavinia was mentioned, along with Kouki Samejima in Volume 19, through a photograph that Tobio is showing to Issei.

Lavinia made her first appearance in Volume 21, alongside her team leader Tobio at the hospital where she meets members of the Gremory and Vali Teams, although Vali was reluctant as she scolds him for going off on his own and hugs him. Later, within the mountainous region of a certain European country, Lavinia appeared with Tobio teaming up with the Vali Team to fight against an army of Evil Dragons and one of Trihexa's bodies led by Aži Dahāka, where she summons her Sacred Gear's avatar to freeze several Evil Dragons.

#### Red Dragon Emperor of the Blazing Truth × White Dragon Emperor of the Morning Star: The True Dragon(s) of the Kuoh Academy

In Volume 24, she met up with Rias, Issei, Ravel and Rossweisse at Tobio's bar when he called them regarding the recent incident. Lavinia showed Issei Vali's notebook that he had written lines to sound deep and cool and became very happy when Issei complimented Vali.

Lavinia and some of the Slash Dog members appeared as guards for Vali and Rias' Rating Game match. She meets up with Vali as he gets a sports drink from a vending machine, noticing it's the kind he has for an important battle. Vali wasn't too keen on her being here and says that he doesn't need her support, but regardless she will still cheer for him. As Vali goes to prepare for the game, Lavinia wishes him the good luck. During the game, Grim Reapers had already began their attack, angered that they would interrupt Vali's match, Lavinia froze everyone of them in place, leaving them open for her allies to attack.

Lavinia was mentioned in True Volume 1, and she had taken Aika Kiryuu and Mil-Tan as her pupils after Le Fay and Kuroka refuse to teach them magic because they aren’t good enough to teach.

In True Volume 2, when Vali decided to move into a house in Kuoh Town, Lavinia wanted to help with the moving and called over Natsume, Le Fay and Tobio to assist. They've even previously brought over items from his childhood as well as bought a few new things.

She made a request to Issei's office for more help with the moving and became Ingvild Leviathan's first client, Ingvild summoned along with Issei as she could not safely teleport on her own yet. When Le Fay arrived, she thanked Lavinia for lending her a book on secret philosophy written by Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa along with notes from Mephisto. After the request was done, Vali handed Ingvild his old dragon plush doll as payment.
