### Type of Villian

Demonic Misanthrope

**Choronzon**, also mostly known by her alias **Lola Stuart**, is one of the main antagonists of the *A Certain Magical Index* franchise.

She serves as a supporting character in *A Certain Magical Index: Old Testament* and one of the two main antagonists (alongside Aleister Crowley) of *A Certain Magical Index: New Testament*, primarily serving as one of the two main antagonists of the Fall of Academy City Saga, specifically as the unseen overarching antagonist of the first seven story arcs, the final antagonist of the Aleister Crowley Arc, the secondary antagonist of the Processor Suit Arc, the titular main antagonist of the Choronzon Arc and the overarching antagonist of the Kamijou Arc.

It is a powerful and ancient demonic entity who encountered Aleister Crowley during one of his binding experiments in Egypt. After failing to hijack Aleister's body, the demon plotted Aleister's ruin by posing as Lola Stuart, the Archbishop of the Church of England and the head of Necessarius. However, it is revealed that it was summoned as part of a contract with Aleister's late enemy, Samuel Liddell MacGregor Mathers. She is the archenemy of Aleister Crowley, due to it presumably possessing the body of his elder daughter, Lola Zaza Crowley, as well as one of Touma Kamijou's sworn enemies.

## Appearance

Choronzon's true form (if it even has one) is unknown, although it can manifest a giant and nightmarish demonic face on the hair of its host.

In its current vessel, Choronzon appears as an eighteen year old girl with white skin, clear blue eyes, and incredibly long and shining golden hair. Her hair is about 2.5 times her height, usually folded over and bound behind her head with a gold clasp, but still reaching her hips. She is usually seen wearing beige vestments.

## Personality

As Lola Stuart, she is very morally ambiguous and has done just as many evil deeds as she has good ones. It's hard to say whether she's a good person, a bad one or simply a neutral one. Because of this, Choronzon restricts herself in that manner to provide an explanation and calm the waves when she takes actions which seemed out of character, until she fulfills the contract with Mathers. Choronzon uses different speech patterns while acting as Lola Stuart and its true self.

However, beneath this facade, Choronzon is actually a very cruel, sadistic, manipulative and malevolent being with no sense of compassion or empathy, and would do anything to accomplish its goals, even if it means taking innocent lives. It happens to take great pleasure and delight in hurting others and has been shown to have a very warped and twisted sense of humor, making her a very remorseless and unsympathetic entity. For example, her main goal is to free herself from her contract by making Aleister Crowley's life a living hell, something which she takes extreme pleasure in doing. Furthermore, upon revealing to Aleister that she is currently inhabiting the body of his second daughter, she taunts and mocks him endlessly with the supposed last cry for help from his daughter as her body was taken from her by the demon. However, that was a lie meant to trick Aleister into undoing the shackles Samuel Mathers placed on her.

In addition to this, Choronzon is extremely arrogant and egotistical, seeing humans as common hip-thrusting beasts and itself as a superior and intelligent higher lifeform. While she does seem to enjoy making Aleister suffer in the process, a big part of why she keeps antagonizing him is because she *needs to* in order to fulfill her contract with Mathers in order to be free of his service. Of course, that's also because she wants to be free to do whatever she wants on Earth without restraints namely invoke a ceremony that would devastate the entire planet.

Moreover, Choronzon also has displayed misanthropic and nihilistic tendencies and possesses a warped view of justice, as shown in her conversations with Aleister and Hamazura. This is due to her demonic nature as the embodiment of dispersion and natural breakdown. She believes that humanity threats the natural order of the world and seeks to destroy mankind through the Ceremony of Mo Athair.

## History

While Choronzon's entire background and history is unknown, it was summoned by Samuel Liddell MacGregor Mathers, one of the founders of the Golden Dawn magic cabal, who commanded it to her to make Aleister Crowley suffer and guide him to ruin.

In 1909, during one of Aleister's attempts to become one with the abyss in the African desert, Choronzon appeared and temporarily hijacked his body and turned it into an avatar. After failing to fully hijack Aleister's body, Choronzon subsequently hid within a mountain of papyrus and travelled from northern Africa to England. Bound to follow the contract even after Mathers' death, Choronzon plotted Aleister's ruin and manipulated events while secretly and supposedly possessing the body of Aleister's second daughter Lola and acting as the Archbishop of Necessarius.

## Powers and Abilities

**Genius-Level Intellect**: Choronzon is an incredibly intelligent individual. She has extensive knowledge in various magic practices and has shown knowledge regarding the torture, execution, and restraining devices of England, knowing that all of it are influenced by the Church due to the history of witch hunts. As Lola Stuart, she has manipulated countless factions and individuals throughout history, having ingrained herself in the United Kingdom's rule. She also has manipulated the events surrounding Aleister Crowley to bring him to ruin, such as using her authority as an Archbishop Church of England to take control of Index and Fran Karasuma, moreover, using Shiage Hamazura as a pawn in order to cause the breakdown of the world and managed to deceive and use others for her own plans and purposes.

**Possession:** Choronzon is a demon that can possess both objects and people, and can possess multiple people at once. It is able to extend its possession to other people by using Lola's hair as a medium. A demonic face can appear on the target's hair after being possessed, following the old witch tradition of the devil residing in women's hair.

* **Vessel Materialization:** Demons lack a physical body of their own, being more like energy lifeforms, so normally they cannot physically interact with the world unless given one to act as their vessel/avatar. However, Choronzon has the ability to create a physical body using her own power, which she used to assume the identity of Lola Stuart. Due to this flesh and blood body, her soul is stabilized; making her sturdy enough to remain unshaken by exorcism techniques used to weaken and banish demons. Conversely, her flesh and blood body binds her to the rules of the surface human world, so her physical body is momentarily restricted after using major attacks due to having to control the magic recoil produced by them.

**Hair Manipulation:** Choronzon is able to move her incredibly long hair (2.5 times her height) at will. She can use it to bind, slice and pierce targets, and she can also use it to cast magic by drawing magic symbols in the air with it. She can extend the hair much longer than its original length.

**Explosion Manipulation:** Choronzon is a being of evil dispersion. Lola is able to release the immense magical power of Choronzon contained within her hair to create several explosions around her body, the greatest symbol of dispersion. Lola is skilled enough to fuse the vectors of several explosions to propel objects at the enemy as a projectile.

**Curse Manipulation:** Lola was able to neutralize a deadly curse from Mina Mathers using only the vibrations of her voice.

**Light Manipulation:** Choronzon is able to light up dark places and fire beams of light with the Honours of Scotland and the Stone of Scone aboard the Queen Britannia.

**Weight Manipulation:** Choronzon can make the 230-kg Stone of Scone and herself feel weightless.

**Crack:** Choronzon was able to come back after being banished to the World Rejecter shifted timeline by creating a crack (supposedly in space-time) through which it could crawl back to the regular world.

**Wings:** By reading and using the "contents" of the A.A.A., Choronzon grew two bat-like glowing wings on her back, giving her the ability to fly at high speeds.

**Black Flames:** Choronzon can create pitch black flames.

**Knockout Spell:** Choronzon snaps her fingers, knocking out all chosen targets around her. This magic is similar in nature to people-clearing fields, only it shuts down minds instead of controlling them.

**Aeon Interference:** Choronzon exist beyond the three Aeons of Isis, Osiris and Horus. This gives her power some ability to interfere with the magic of lower Aeons. For example, although Aleister Crowley's healing spell based on the Son of God could heal most of Touma Kamijou's body after he was left near death by Choronzon's Flaming Sword spell, his right hand that had directly received the spell couldn't be healed by a spell belonging to the Aeon of Osiris.

**Rebound Spell:** A spell used by Choronzon in her encounter with Accelerator. Choronzon used several layers of bundled hair to stop one of Accelerator's blows. Each individual hair bent and negated the vector that should have passed through it, sending an invisible power through the rebounding force into Accelerator’s fist and back through his bones into his heart. The effects of the spell are unknown beyond the fact it initially staggered Accelerator and left and odd uncomfortable feeling on his chest afterwards that ended after an attack from Nephthys forced him to cough out blood.

**Enochian Magic:** A system of magic based on using the ancient Enochian language to call upon angels and the power of higher realms.

* **Secret Call:** A type of magic that calls upon the four pure elements that cannot be achieved in the human world, where elements are tainted by trace amounts of the other elements. There are eighteen different Secret Calls. To use this magic Choronzon spells out the Enochian language in the air using her hair.
	+ **First Call:** Choronzon uses pure and colorless energy not belonging to any of the four elements to vaporize her foe. Chant: *"The First Call: the whole tablet of unification, the colorless and nameless element. Obey the series of letters on the tablet of unification and reveal thy nature before me!!"*
	+ **Third Call:** Choronzon summons a gust/torrent of unsullied wind to slice the enemy. Chant: *"The Third Call: thy name is IDOIGO, wind of wind. Obey the words that rule the tablet of the same color and reveal thy pure power before me!!"*
	+ **Sixth Call:** Flames burst from empty air, swirling in a vortex as they gather in Choronzon's right hand, where they can be used to create a fiery explosion. Chant: *"The Sixth Call: thy name is RZIONR, fire of fire. Obey the words that rule the tablet of the same color and reveal thy pure power before me!!"*
		- **Amplification:** Using a second chant calling upon pure fire, Choronzon caused the remaining embers of the spell to suddenly become a blazing tornado. Chant: *"Fire Tablet of the Elemental Tablets, thou hast been released, so work within my power. I will now indicate the source of the apocalyptic threat. All creation shall naturally break down and Enochian Magic shall amplify the fire of destruction!!"*
	+ **Seventh Call:** Used after the Third Call was deflected, this call summoned a cold mist that surrounded the wind blade and twisted it around with a motion similar to a venomous snake or a scorpion’s tail to once again attack the enemy. Due to mixing an elemental impurity to adapt the spell, it is weaker than Calls that use a pure element. Chant: *"The Seventh Call: thy name is LILACZA, water of wind. Insert element within element and obey me as an element of this world!!"*
	+ **Secret and Unrecorded Call:** Choronzon speaks words no human can pronounce or comprehend. This magic allowed Choronzon to remotely control the A.A.A. used by Mikoto Misaka and use it to shoot a rainbow-colored beam of light. Chant: *"The Secret and Unrecorded Call: Thy name is \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*. \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*."*
* **Aethyr Avatar:** Choronzon can create remotely controlled avatars by extending and weaving her hair into false images of angels. This is achieved by absorbing moonlight with her hair over a long period of time and then using the absorbed moonlight to spell out text that divides the spiritual territory spoken of by Enoch into a total of thirty regions, each with an assigned angel. Choronzon herself originally was the evil angel found in ZAX, the tenth Aethyr. Though much weaker than her real avatar/vessel, Choronzon can use leylines to transfer her power in the shape of Aethyr Avatars to other parts of the planet.

**Magick:** Choronzon can use Magick, the new system of magic technique to control great power developed by Aleister Crowley.

* **Flaming\_Sword:** Choronzon's ultimate destructive spell. Used with a lengthy chant and by taking a posture with her left hand straight forward and her right hand pulled back as if holding an invisible rapier. The spell calls upon pure energy from heaven, descending through the various points in the Sephiroth tree as a torrent of power and shooting towards the target as a great mass of energy that can sever the bonds of the target. Even if the direct explosion misses, the shockwave holds great power. While Choronzon is using her created flesh and blood body, this spell is strong enough to overwhelm Imagine Breaker. Chant: *"I am a demon, but not from the Qliphoth where the forces of evil gather. I am the Great Demon hidden by the holy Sephiroth. I dwell in the same abyss as Da’at. Every number is the same. My right hand contains Nuit of Resurrection. Watch as the possibilities expand and surpass the bounds of the finite. My left hand contains Hadit of Vengeance. The smallest point gathers and concentrates all forces to create a single meaning. Thus, an attack shall be released from the infinite acceleration of the Circle of Ra-Hoor-Khuit and shall appear on the surface layer of this world. Magick: Flaming\_Sword. Manifest thyself through descent of the Sephirah and bathe him in thy power."*

**Ceremony of Mo Athair:** Choronzon's goal and purpose is to remove the clogs of the world by destroying that which does not naturally break down in order to prepare for whichever would come next. Compared to a game of old maid, Choronzon would use her nature of dispersion to manipulate the seven billion humans into forming mutual pairs of destruction and killing each other. During the ensuing chaos, she would then utilize her ability to freely ascend and descend the Sephiroth and pour a great amount of energy to the Pure World which would destroy it along with all of the phases overlaid on top of it, as well as the entire Sephiroth. To perform the Ceremony, Choronzon has to prepare a temple on the Queen Britannia and requires four spiritual items: the three Honours of Scotland and the Stone of Scone. She must also reach a certain location at a point equidistant from the center points of England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. If the Ceremony is activated while incomplete, it would only destroy about half the universe without destroying the Sephirah.
