## In Literature

### First Appearance

SiP Ch.01

**Hecatia Lapislazuli** (**ヘカーティア ラピスラズリ** *Hekātia Rapisurazuri*) is the protagonist of Spellcard is Impossible, the 2nd major story arc in A NEET's Bizarre Adventure. Though being the youngest so far at just 15 years old, she's almost as tough as Kaguya Houraisan herself. She's was born out of wedlock when Eirin Yagokoro had met Hecatia's father; Will Antonio Lapislazuli when he was a college student in Tokyo. Her Standmaku is called Crazy Diamond, named in honor of her late grandfather's favorite song. While a strong close ranged Standmaku similar to Kaguya's own Star Sapphire, it has a unique ability to 'restore' things to a previous state, effectively able to heal or repair broke things and even living tissue.

## Appearance

She is a relatively tall girl with dark red eyes and hair. She takes great pride of her well kept hair with its distinctive red hair. Its natural color is not stated but it can be implied that it is black as both her parents had black hair. She usually is wearing her school uniform, which is a sailor style with dark grey collar and skirt with a white strip through it. She wears standard leather school shoes and ankle socks. She also wears a black leather choker.

## Personality

Although initially introduced as passive when being harassed by the seniors, her true personality comes out when they insult her hair, leading her to strike on of the seniors and using the restorative properties of Crazy Diamond to cause their broken nose to heal in an odd angle. She is sensitive to criticism of it, even lashing out at Kaguya Houraisan. Though after she calms down, she shows that she has a soft side and easily warms up when Kaguya brings up her estranged biological mother, Eirin Yagokoro. Like her mother, Hecatia is quite family oriented and cares deeply for her family and friends. She is enraged when Arturo Watanabe murders her grandfather, though it seems that unlike Kaguya, she's not quite as vindictive. At heart, she's a relatively normal teenager and it shows.

One thing she has in common with both her Kaguya and Eirin is a strong sense of justice. After the defeat of Arturo Watanabe, she pledges to defend the town from all threats along with Suwako and Sekibanki. This goal drives her through the rest of the story, and puts her into close contact with Kaguya who acts as her mentor and almost like an older sister.

## Early Life

Hecatia was born on the 15th of August, 2000. When her father Will Antonio Lapislazuli was a college student in a certain famous university in Tokyo, he had met Eirin Yagokoro at a talk she gave. The two had met when Will had to interview her afterwards for the campus newspaper. And despite Eirin being already 65 years old at the time and Will being 26, they had hit it off pretty well. Before long they were embroiled in a steamy, secretive romance. When Eirin had beaten the odds of giving birth at the ripe old age of 65, she was suddenly whisked away in the Spring of 2001 as the events of Standmaku Crusaders began to take place. And although she promised she'd be back, many long years would pass and Hecatia was raised alone by Will who at this point, had settled into Mayohiga in Gensokyo's Central Provnice after selling most of his belongings to move there. According the Hecatia, even after almost 15 years later, her father indeed still had feelings for Eirin and constantly wondered about her. At this point though, she was now well over 70 years old. Hecatia couldn't feel a motherly connection to this woman who was basically a stranger. Still, eventually they patched up their relationship and bonded together.

## Abilities

See Also: Crazy Diamond

Hecatia's Standmaku Crazy Diamond is a close combat Standmaku though with a special ability to revert and object to a previous state. This could mean turning a broken object into a fixed one and even healing damanged tissue with it, though it too, has its limits. Despite using her Standmaku to attempt to 'heal' her grandfather, he was seemingly unable to be revived after his death despite his wounds having healed. Kaguya comments that it is impossible to bring back the dead, and no Standmaku has that capability. Aside from her Standmaku, she is gifted with the same cunning and wit as her mother EIrin. She is perceptive, can think logically and keep a cool head in the midst of a battle.

## Relationships

### Family

* **Eirin Yagokoro:** Hecatia's estranged mother. At first she treated her with coldness. After all, she was essentially a stranger, having been absent and leaving her father to raise her alone for 15 years. There was some bad blood between them at first, but after the incident involving the invisible baby, the two became closer and a mutual respect formed between mother and daughter.
* **Kaguya Houraisan:** Despite being younger, Hecatia is her aunt. Although they didn't quite get off on the right foot, with Hecatia attacking Kaguya for what seemed like an insult against her hair. Still, the two quickly become close and form a mentor-protégé relationship and the two work together in order to protect Mayohiga.
* **Will Antonio Lapislazuli**: They share a pretty basic father-daughter relationship. He is still depressed from Eirin's sudden disappearance from their lives and spends most of his time working.
* **Robert E. Lapislazuli:** Hecatia's grandfather. A decorated police officer in Mayohiga for many years, Robert's death was the catalyst for Hecatia to take a proactive approach to protecting Mayohiga. Not much is known about their relationship but his death easily triggers Hecatia and makes her determined to put a stop to Arturo Watanabe.

### Friends

* **Suwako Moriya:** Starting off as strangers, they quickly become friends as she becomes unwittingly roped into the bizarre world of Standmakus. During the Horikawa Sisters Arc, Hecatia risks her life to try and rescue her even though they only met a few days prior.
* **Sekibanki Horikawa:** Though enemies at first, Hecatia spares her life and even heals her during the Horikawa Sister Arc. She shows that she's not as prone to violence and perhaps, trys to see the best in people, even her enemies. After the conclusion of the arc, the two becomes quick friends.
