Eileen (아일린, *Aillin*) is the leader of the Church of Gears, a cult which aims to give purpose to Cityfolk by converting their bodies into gears, contributing to a grand purpose. Her assassination from the Full-Stop Office is intercepted by Argalia, who then recruits her to join the The Reverberation Ensemble, taking the role as the harp.

## Appearance

In her Church of Gears outfit, Eileen wears a long white dress, draping down and touching the floor, exposing Eileen's bare feet. At her waist, she appears to wear a section of blue cloth wrapped around her, with the remainder of its length dropping down to her thigh level. The dress itself is one-piece from bottom to shoulder, with a mounted cape made out of the same material and color as the long dress, only with a brown outline on it's perimeters. Eileen's shoulders are visible, and Eileen herself cannot be easily seen, as she is wearing a white translucent visor-esque device in-front of her face, held up by 2 massive gears on each side of her head, presumably rotating near her brain. Her hair is the only portion of her head that can easily be made out, being blonde and straightened and simply let down without any distinguishable hair-style.

Later in the story, after joining the Reverberation Ensemble, Eileen wears the group's signature suit, and wearing 2 bronze bracelets, one on each hand. Her hair seems to be either missing or turned into the 2 long "horns" on her head. She also appears to be wearing neck rings, extending the length of her neck by a substantial amount. Her face is no longer visible at all beyond the visor, and a 3rd gear can be seen as the upper-rightmost gear on her head, presumably being the first worshiper being turned into a Thought Gear in Full-Stop Office Episode 1.

In her true distorted form, her entire body's exterior turns white, with gold being plated on her feet, torso, and shoulder blades on the perimeters. Her old cape in her first form seems to have turned into a vague apparatus of wings on her sides, drooping down to her legs. On her back are 2 actual wings, similar in shape and design to Whitenight's wing's, with gears popping out of them in random spots, although always symmetrical to the other wing, and with blood oozing out of where the gear was implanted. The gears on her head have also elongated and enlarged massively, being even larger than her wings in a default pose, and a massive central gear being shown to be behind her.

## Personality

Eileen is extremely manipulative and charismatic to other people, especially of those in desperation. She insists on gears being the most effective way of operating things, and how civilizations should act too. Her philosophy is about the inefficiency and pains of being lost in life with a lack of purpose and how if people can become gears, they can find purpose and fulfill their roles they were predestined for in life, although her means of accomplishing this is unethical.

## Dialogue

* Eileen
* Gear Worshippers

* "The gears are prepared to turn for him."

**On Kill**
* "The gears were right…"
* "It’s not too late to find your place as a gear."
* "Praise… the gears…"
* "You should have shifted according to the predetermined path…"
* "To die without knowing what kind of gear you were… What a futile demise…"

**Teammate Death**
* "A beautiful gear makes a sacrifice."
* "A cog has been dislocated."
* "It seems this was the final destination for that unfortunate gear."
* "I appreciate your assistance."
* "Fret not. The pain is only temporary."

**Death**
* "We can cycle again anytime."

**Victory**
* "It was the right choice to follow him."
* "The sound of the meshing gears echoes wonderfully throughout the floor."

* "Is this the moment… when we must start turning?"
* "Please, show us the way…!"
* "As the gears turn… so too does life fulfill its cycle!!"
* "As the gears guide me…"

**On Kill**
* "Thank you for showing me the right path…"
* "A wise decision…"
* "If only you followed the gears…"
* "We have come this far under the protection of the gears…"
* "It’s a pity that you still haven’t met your gear…"

**Teammate Death**
* "A gear… has ceased turning…"
* "Were they a useless piece…?"
* "This too must be… the impetus of the gears…"
* "Even though this was the decided path…"

**Death**
* "Why… have you… brought me here…"
* "I followed your guidance… So why…?"
* "Am I… a useless cogwheel now?"
* "I can still move…"

**Victory**
* "No more worrying… The gears were right…!"
* "The gears slowly turn in pursuit of happiness…"
* "Thanks for leading us lost lambs here…"
* "I knew this was the right… way… The gears were right…"
* "Thank you… Thank you again…!"
