**Michael Wittmann**(ミハエル・ヴィットマン, *Mihaeru vu~ittoman*) is the original name of, **Goëtz von Berlichingen**( ゲッツ・フォン・ベルリッヒンゲン, *Gettsu fon Berurihhingen*)**,**also known as **Machina**(マキナ, *Makina*) or **Nigredo: the Black Knight**(黒騎士ニグレド, *Kuro Kishi Niguredo)*is a member of the Longinus Dreizehn Orden, occupying Seat VII of the Table.

Due to his strength and his loyalty he became one of the Three Commanders of the Obsidian Round Table.

## Personality

He is a man of few words, and even fewer emotions. A being of perpetual sloth. Within the will of sorrow and apathy.

He sees no meaning in anything, and wants all to end. Manifesting as his Briah, Midgardr Völsunga Saga.

## **Abilities**

As an Einherjar he is among the most powerful of the LDO. He is the strongest of the Battalion.
He is sluggish, but his hits are absolute. Eradicating any target that has a history. Much like his wish, for all things to end, taking form as the fist that closes the curtains.
He is quite sluggish, though he more than makes up for this lack of speed with his pure might.

### **Yetzirah- Deus Ex Machina**

*Main article: Deus ex Machina*

A Yetzirah that takes that form of his own body, and acts passively. Always being active.
His hits are absolute, eradicating any target that has a history, much like his wish, for all things to end, taking form as the fist that closes the curtains upon all tales.

Nothing with a single moment of history, even a single word of ones story, can survive a direct hit by his Yetzirah. Thus this will bring about the absolute end in all beings he strikes. Even able to defeat Valerian Trifa, or make contact with purely elemental beings.

As this is always active he is like a living weapon, thus making him have the longest Duration of his Yetzirah, being ranked as a "7". Only comparable to Valerian Trifa, for he is much like him, a man whose Relic is his own body.

### **Briah- Midgardr Völsunga Saga**

*Main article: Midgardr Völsunga Saga*

«
Death, O glorious, final death! Savior of man!
My heart, drowned in venom, ravaged by time, may beat its last within your embrace. May spear’s wound, may venom’s bane, all perish at your coming.
Aye, behold! This festering void gnawing at my soul...
This life-blood, its crimson pearls feeding the earth, this malice, ever coursing my veins - behold!
Clasp your blade, draw your steel! And plunge deep, deep till the hilt!
Hark, brave knights, and know this: As the sinner finds his last refuge, his anguish done.
So shall divine light be shower’d from the heavens above.
**Briah: Midgardr Völsunga Saga!**

A Manifestation of his Wish, "I Want to Die with a Singular End".

A Gudou-Type Briah, it manifests itself as two black-iron gauntlets. In this state his Yetzirah is magnified immensely. Rising from a Lethal Blow, to a single punch being able to erase its target from existance. This even applies to concepts, as shown by his effect upon Methuselah.

One could say this is a far more powerful version of his Yetzirah, taking his punches from physical oblideration to complete erasure from existance, bypassing any and all sorts of durability and destroying anything that has even a singular instant of history.

Though it comes with the side-effect of only being able to be manifested for a short amount of time, among the shortest of all members of the Obsidian Round Table, though it is also one of the most powerful Beri'ah in the Table.

## Trivia

Götz von Berlichingen is a reference to a German Imperial Knight (Reichsritter) and Poet. Also known as Götz of the Iron Hand. For he lost his Right Arm in a duel, and had it replaced with an iron prosthetic.

Despite this he still managed to engage in combat.

It was also the name for a Waffen-SS 17th SS Panzergrenadier Division Götz von Berlichingen. Which saw action on the Western Front during WWII.

Michael Wittmann is actually a real individual. A famous (or infamous) Tank Commander during Word War II.

## References

1. ↑  His craving was to make the curtains fall upon his Völsunga Saga, and its effect as a power was to end all phenomena, regardless of wether they had a shape or not.
2. ↑ Any story with any sort of history would have an ending, and his Deus ex Machina instantaneously and forcefully moved the story to that conclusion.
Not only could it effect living beings and buildings -- But even fire, lightning, and even thoughts and concepts.  Being struck by his punch meant having your history ended, and not even the dark divinity was an exception.  A single punch would make him shatter and vanish.*Dies Irae*
3. ↑ The phenomenon meant the end of history. Creatures, objects knowledge, concepts -- None of these categories mattered to it. Nothing with even a single moment of history past the moment of creation -- a single word in its story -- could ever withstand the all ending Deus ex Machina.
