### Status

Active

The **Rift Army** is an organization built by Erazor Djinn, consisting of dangerous beings and monsters from across the Rift to serve as his soldiers. Much like its predecessor, N. Tropy's Paradox Warriors, its executive members consist of powerful denizens from other Rifts. They are the main antagonists of the movie *Rift Apart*.
Pir'oth Ix

**Imperator Ix**, also known as **Pir'oth Ix**, is a Echidna from Sonic's World and the ferocious leader of the Nocturnus Clan. He is the main antagonist of the *Pir'oth Ix Saga*. He is designated with "**A - The Almighty**"

## Strengths and Abilities

Ix can bestow abilities upon another by engraving a letter upon their soul, known as a Schrift. This can also be done with robots, as seen with Scylla, Charyb, Secta and Gemerl. Ix can also use this power on himself to regain abilities he himself has lost, as seen when Nestor takes his voice away.

**The Almighty** gives Ix the ability to see the future on an omni-cognitive level, allowing him to see from mere second ahead, into the far flung future. Rather than seeing a linear future, Ix can also see any possible alternative future that may stem from one point in time, effectively giving him an awareness of what is to come in battle, and how he may adapt to the strategies of his opponents. Despite this, he is unable to predict certain elements, such as the Kamikake ritual, some of Silver's attacks or Shade's Light Arrow. This precognition also allows Ix to nullify the effects of abilities he understands.

**The Almighty** also gives Ix the ability to alter the future in which ever outcome he desires, effectively enabling him to set traps on the battlefield or attack opponents regardless of any defence measures instantaneously. This can be used to such an extent that he can undo his own death ahead of time.

Ix's Auswählen enables him to take the powers and abilities of any of his followers of his choosing, and distribute them to whoever may need them, including himself. This may prove fatal in some instances, as the ability can potentially strip victims down to the bone.

## Trivia

* Ix's role during the *Pir'oth Ix Saga* is based on that of Yhwach from the *Bleach* series.
Red (Demon)

**Red** is a demon who originally hailed from the Demon World and is the son of Rose before becoming the assistant of Ashley. He first appears during the *Grodus Saga*.

## Trivia

* Red's connection to his father, Rose, is based on the father-son relationship between Dabura from the *Dragon Ball* series and the protagonist of *Sand Land*, Beelzebub, though in *Sand Land*, Dabura was referred to as "Lucifer".
Gabrielle Le Deux

**Gabrielle Le Deux** is Malcolm Bright 's childhood shrink. He started seeing her when he was 11 years old, and continued seeing her into adulthood, despite her not being an adult shrink.

## Season 1

Before going to work Malcolm Bright stops in to chat with his childhood shrink. He fully explains to her the situation and she too, cautions him to stop seeing his father, Martin Whitly not wanting to worsen his PTSD. Their session is cut short when he is paged into work, but not before taking on multiple suckers with him.

Malcolm is reminded of another flashback in his dream after he chloroforms himself. He confesses everything he did to his therapist, adding he now remembers his mother in a red dress. Dr. Gabrielle tells Malcolm he is beginning to take things to a dangerous level and suggests upping his medication. He declines and is interrupted by his phone before leaving.

Malcolm stops in at his psychologist for another session. He explains how desperately he wants to find out how if a station wagon he saw in the photo is connected to anything. She warned him to be very careful as the mind is a fragile and delicate thing, not wanting him to refer back to the broken child he once was. She also warned him to be careful of having a psychotic break, he would begin hallucinating things that felt extremely real.

Malcolm explains another one of his elaborate haunting dreams. And that's when he was aware he was awake, and a woman he didn't know Asking him to save her. He was then forced down on his own bed and she continuously stabbed her Japanese katana through the bedsheets beside his body. By his head in between his legs and she eventually thrusted through his chest killing him. Gabrielle asked Malcolm if he had considered the possibility that this dream was more erotic than dangerous. Advising him to seek out more normal human, if possible romantic connection.

* Malcolm Bright continues to take suckers from her office after their sessions.

**Pilot**

Fired from the FBI for insubordination and antagonizing his colleagues, Malcolm Bright is hired as a consultant by his old friend, NYPD Lieutenant Gil Arroyo. On his first case, Malcolm discovers similarities between the killer and his father, Dr. Martin Whitly, an incarcerated serial killer known as "*The Surgeon*". This causes him to suffer night terrors and panic attacks as he finds himself reliving the events leading up to his father's arrest.

Against the advice of Gil and his long-suffering mother Jessica, Malcolm visits his father for the first time in ten years for help identifying the killer, who he determines was one of his patients. Faced with the threat of his son abandoning him for good, Dr. Whitly names the killer as wealthy developer *Carter Berkhead*. Berkhead takes his wife and a cop, Det. Dani Powell, hostage, and an overwhelmed Malcolm offers to trade his life for theirs, distracting Berkhead long enough for Gil to shoot him. Afterwards, Gil tells his officers the truth of Malcolm's identity and asks them to have faith in him. Malcolm decides that he will continue to visit his father only to solicit his help on cases. **Read more >**

Colette Swanson

**Colette Swanson** is a former colleague of Malcolm Bright from the FBI.

## Season 1

Malcolm Bright gets a phone call from Gil Arroyo who reluctantly informs them that the FBI has taken over their case with Paul Lazar and their first order was to immediately kick Malcolm off the case.

While at the NYPD, Colette quickly ran down the last 12 hours including the murder of former detective *Owen Shannon* and the now missing Malcolm Bright. She instructed Dani Powell and JT Tarmel to follow up leads on paperwork much to their annoyance. Inside that small interrogation room, Matilda Watkins and Gil Arroyo attempted to get information about Paul Lazar a.k.a. John Watkins, but his grandmother Matilda ignored them both and began humming Bible verses. She was soon let out when it became clear she would not be giving them any information and was indeed joyous at her son's actions.

Later in the day Detective Dani and JT came to her, showing off a photo where Paul used to visit a cabin, believing it was the same one that Malcolm had been looking for. She agreed to SWATT staying and assembled everyone to the cabin. They found no heat signatures inside and after busting the first floor, entered the bottom floor with Dani and JT only to find it empty.
