Lillia Andersen

Lillia, in a rare moment of down time.

**Lillia Andersen** is a little Astellian girl who worked for the Asterion Corporation as their official spokesperson, handling duties such as press conferences, PR campaigns, and the like.

At present, she, along with Balrog, has defected Asterion to aid the Resistance.

## Appearance

Lillia is approximately 4'7", with mid-back-length brown hair done up in twin braids. She has wide-rimmed glasses, and wears a small Asterion dress uniform most of the time.

## Bio

Lillia is a cute, smol little girl—in fact, according to numerous Astellian talent shows and beauty pageants, the cutest and the smolest, as evidenced by her many trophies and ribbons.  Her rise thus to popularity caught the eye of Finis, CEO of the Asterion Corporation, who scouted her to be Asterion’s mascot and PR spokessmol.  Her duties include television appearances, press conferences, and other official functions, and she is of course compensated very handsomely.  In her free time, she enjoys arts and crafts, and particularly loves making origami animals.

## In Story

Shortly after Amaranth's disappearance, Finis began his methodical takeover of the country. These underhanded tactics did not go unnoticed, and a resistance movement formed to oppose him. Eventually, Finis' personal "cleaner," Balrog, defected Asterion Corporation so that he could protect Lillia from getting involved in Finis' dealings, so of course Lillia left along with him. Currently, they are among the only survivors of Saber's Resistance cell.
Hope Argentum

Hope, before his exile.

**Hope Aaron Argentum** is a disgraced Egalstrian nobleman from the Egalstrian city of Paleolis. He is a friend of Augustus Invictus, and is the boyfriend of Yuuta. Although disgraced, he is still the heir to the County of Paleolis.

## Appearance

Hope is a delicate-looking, effeminate young boy with kind, soft features and silver hair. His skin is soft and pale, and he has green eyes, as well as soft lips. He wears a long white shirt with a floral pattern, with underneath it a tighter shirt in a more grayish color and longer sleeves. He wears tight shorts, but wears nothing on his feet.

## Biography

Hope Aaron Argentum was born in 852 AD, to Count Marlon Argentum of Paleolis, and his wife, Countess Aerith Argentum. Hope was born sickly, and as such didn't go out much, becoming introverted and shy, traits not good for a future Count of Paleolis.

When Hope was 13, his father hired a new servant, a man by the name of Lucian Adolf Avadonia. Hope quickly befriended the servant, and over time, their relationship grew romantic. This put them both in grave danger, as the church looked down on homosexuality. Eventually, the two were found out. Being the only son of Count Marlon, and heir to the county, Hope was spared. However, Lucian was not so lucky. He was publicly executed, and Hope was forced to watch his love be hanged.

He sank into depression, and by the time he was 14, decided to run away from home. He gathered some of his things, and in the dead of night, left the county mansion, running away into the Forlorn Whitewood, a cursed forest.

## In Story

In the Forlorn Whitewood, Hope met a disgraced soldier named Clemens. The two wandered for a day, Clemens tormented by visions of his past. Eventually, the two met another exile, this one from a local koneko tribe. His name was Yuuta, and he and Hope quickly became friends, although Yuuta and Clemens had many disputes. Eventually, the three came across a lake, known as the Forlorn Lake. In it, they each faced an element of their past. For Hope, it was his dead lover, Lucian. After confronting him and coming to terms with his death, Hope was granted new powers. Specifically, the ability to heal. He also began to understand his feelings for Yuuta. The two later decided to start dating.

Later, the three came across a manakete named Ono, as well as a human named Alystra. As it turned out, Clemens was actually named Augustus, and that Alystra was a friend of his. They decided to leave the forest, and they rode out on Ono's back.

After that, Hope assisted Yuuta, Augustus, Alystra, and Ono in setting up a camp. However, the next day, Ono sensed an evil presence, so Augustus and Alystra rode off on Ono to pursue it. Eventually, Ono came back for Hope and Yuuta, but by the time Hope and Yuuta got to where Augustus and Alystra went, the evil presence - The Plague Dragon - had already retreated. So, Hope and Yuuta stayed in the ruined city to help the wounded, while Augustus and the knight Klaus rode off on Ono once more to hunt the dragon.
King Henri III

**King Henri III**, also known as **Henri d'Arceneaux**, is the current reigning king of the Kingdom of Luciferia. He is known for his tyrannical rule.

## Bio

Henri is only son of King Louis IX, Henri was destined to be king from birth. As such, he had a rather austere childhood, dominated by endless lessons that ultimately disinterested him. Over time, he grew to even resent his father. When his father died fighting back the Oghuz Horde only a few years ago, Henri came to the throne at the age of 13. As he had such a dull childhood, Henri concerned himself only with his own pleasure and entertainment, holding lavish feasts and focusing on his own self-aggrandizement. As the years passed, he assumed more and more power for himself, although he leaves most of the actual running of the nation to his chancellor, Jacques, who quells dissent using his shady secret police. Henri is, simply put, a tyrant. He is vain and self-absorbed, quick to remind his people who rules them. However, despite this malice, most of his failings as a ruler stem not from that, but from his own disinterest in running the country.
Emma Blodöxa

**Emma Blodöxa** is the daughter of Chieftain Erik Blodöxa of the Raetic Confederation of Helvetia, and was first in line to succeed him.

## Appearance

Emma is a fierce little girl with fiery copper-red hair. She dresses in Helvetic tribal clothing, in her case consisting of very fine furs and elaborate horns and such from various animals.

## Biography

Emma was forced to grow up very quickly, never having the chance to live a normal childhood.  Taught by her father to hold a blade at the tender age of four, Emma spent much of her formative age learning the ways of politics and war. When she was nine, her father took her into her first battle, and in her very next battle, she scored her first kill.  She is a rather cold and reticent person under normal circumstances and a vicious predator on the field of battle, but if one were to poke at her in just the right way, they might discover that she’s not so different from any other girl her age on the inside.

## In Story

When Augustus invaded the Raetic territories in retaliation for the sacking of Trevorum, he met Emma in battle at Alaricund. Requesting a duel with Augustus' chosen champion, Emma ended up in combat against Taka. Due to his inexperience in war and battle tactics, Emma swiftly dispatched him, ending his life with a dagger to the throat. However, when she subsequently sought to battle Augustus himself, he struck her down with his magical abilities, resulting in the surrender of her and her troops.

## In Battle

Emma is a highly proficient warrior, trained on the field of battle for the past two years. She wields a variety of weapons, but her most commonly used are a pair of daggers, which she wields with expert speed and finesse. She uses her diminutive size to her advantage, darting to and fro to maintain total control of the interval between her and her opponent while making herself as small a target as she can.
Bronze Age Collapse

The Bronze Age Collapse was a cataclysmic event that took place approximately six thousand years ago.

Prior to the Collapse, the Kingdom of Astellia was still a part of Albion, located on an eponymous continent hundreds of miles to the east of Latveria. Due to its distance from the mainland, visitors to the kingdom were few; small handfuls of settlers left Astellia over the years to explore new horizons.

However, during the events of the Departure, the Astellian king at the time succumbed to fear and paranoia, calling upon the divine power of Merodii and Makari to remove Astellia from Albion and cast it into the sky. This involved forcibly ripping the landmass of Astellia from Albion's surface, along with a huge chunk of the land beneath it. This left an enormous crater in the seafloor, which resulted in cataclysmic waves that traveled in all directions and ravaged all they touched to the point of complete desolation, ushering in the Age of Darkness.
Divata's Sons and Daughters

Divata's Sons and Daughters is a largely religion based faction, focusing on the Goddess Divata. They settled on the upper longfork near a mercury mine, and started to expand. Eventually their influence extended from the border all the way to Rograr and Krasia. They had found a holy tree from Divata that grew pears that when eaten, would give mana, they built a great and sturdy bridge, one of if not the best bridges in Roggar named Divata's Pathway. Around that bridge and tree they built the towns of Divata's Left Hand and Divata's Right Hand, recently renamed to Divatagrad. It stayed a relative backwater in the lands of Roggar. Quarrels between the Gnome Tinker Guild and Divata's Sons and Daughters caused them to lose a settlement named Danshig, it was eventually returned after a trade deal. They had a virtual monopoly on Mercury and had a share in the copper market until Booty Bay was established, now they hold only 50% of the mercury in the land. A small scale war between Divata's Sons and Daughters and the Gnome Tinker guild left some Divatan lands damaged, but the Gnome Tinker guild was almost entirely wiped out, and the prisoners were sent to work in the mines of the faction. The creation of a Gold Mine in the land bolstered their economic strength. After some time, they saw fit to create another Monument to Divata, a national park, protected by the faction and left unharmed as a monument to the beauty of nature. Recently, during the great anti-Anavarkist war, the battle of Divata's Left and Right Hands (Renamed Divatagrad after the battle), dealt a blow to the Rhoznaxi Army, where 70,000 Peasants and low-quality troops were able to defeat an army of several dragons and 70,000 Professional troops. To this day the land remains a backwater.

Powering this ability is his years of complexes and rage at the world, so why he might be the physically weakest member of the Malik Squadron... pray that you don't make him angry.

## In Story

Joining the rest of the Squadron in the battle against Saber's cell of the Resistance and the surface-dwellers Diana and Avius in the Astellian palace, he later appeared in the assault on the cell's underground base, where he used his psionic abilities to rip apart the base's reinforced steel escape hatch.

Klaus Revelle

**Sir Klaus Revelle** is a royal knight of the Kingdom of Egalstria. He was the one in charge of the expedition to kill the Plague Dragon, and was the former wielder of the enchanted spear known as the Omnilanze.

## Early Life (Birth - 19)

Klaus was born into the prominent noble house Revelle, which was traditionally a family of great knights who were tasked with protecting the royal family and the Egalstrian monarchy. As a child, Klaus was given intense martial training, especially with the spear.

As the kingdom fell further into disarray, most members of house Revelle were sent out to maintain order in the kingdom's various territories... Except Klaus. Klaus was given a special mission by King Heinrich, to slay the legendary Plague Dragon, which had once more returned to the land. With his family spear, the Omnilanze, in hand, he was given a team of heroes to help him slay the dragon.

## Plague Dragon Arc

Klaus left Pietravale with a small team, including such people as Augustus Invictus, Amaranth li Astellia, Igni, and more. Over the course of the journey to the southlands, now called the Plaguelands due to the devastation caused by the Plague Dragon, he grew close to Amaranth and the two children of the group, Hana and Lycoris, becoming known to them as "Uncle Klaus", especially to Lycoris.

When the fight with the dragon actually happened, Klaus pulled his weight well, but when the dragon was struck down, he couldn't bring himself to finish it, for it would mean he too would die. So, Hana took his place in the weaves of fate and sacrificed himself to destroy the Plague Dragon.

After this, Klaus went into a deep depression, and began heading back to Pietravale.

Le Bakemono chakutocho (1788) de Masayoshi Kitao

## Yokai

### Étymologie

Yōkai  est un dérivé direct du chinois : **妖怪** (pinyin : yāoguài) qui signifie littéralement : « monstre bizarre ».

Le terme yōkai est composé des kanjis **妖**, «attirant», «ensorcelant» ou «calamité», et **怪**, «apparition», «mystère», «méfiant».

Ce terme connait aussi un équivalant coréen, yogwi (hangul : **요괴**), qui désigne un  « être vivant, forme d'existence ou phénomène auxquels on peut appliquer les qualificatifs extraordinaire, mystérieux, bizarre, étrange et sinistre ».

### Particularités

Le Yokai n'est pas une seule et unique créature. C'est un terme générique pour nommer toutes créatures, esprits, monstres et légendes de la culture asiatique. Ils sont encrés dans le folklore asiatique et il est très rare de ne pas en connaître. De nombreux jeux, films, livres reprennent ces mythes et légendes pour les remettre au goût du jour.
Man's Best Friend?

**Man's Best Friend?** refers to episode 3 of the Season 6 of the television series Forensic Files which was broadcast for the first time on June 4, 2001.

## Plot summary

In 1989, 4-year-old April Renee Tucker was found dead in the backyard of her Emory, Texas home. Her mother Debbie Loveless and step-father John Harvey Miller told police that she was attacked and killed by neighborhood dogs.

Investigators did not agree and believed that April's wounds were not dog bites, but slashing injuries, consistent with knife wounds. John and Debbie were found guilty of murder and sentenced to life in prison. Five years later, a forensic scientist saw something in the crime scene photographs that had been missed the first time around.
Lycoris

**Lycoris** is a mysterious girl who appears to Amaranth out of the blue shortly following Augustus' departure from Amaranth's group.

## Appearance

Lycoris looks for all intents and purposes like a younger version of Amaranth. She has the same blonde hair and the same bright blue eyes. She wears a plain white dress.

## Personality

Lycoris shares Amaranth's personality to an extent, having imprinted on the young woman much like a duckling would imprint on its mother. Like Amaranth, Lycoris is loud and unruly. She is prone to referring to older male figures in her life as "Uncle," as with "Uncle Klaus," and she refers to Lothar as "Grandpa Lothar" due to his age.

When Merodii's memories surface during Calystegia's awakening, she possesses an imperious air, talking down to those who do not treat her with respect and speaking very bluntly and matter-of-factly.

## Biography

Lycoris' origins are initially shrouded in mystery, as she appears before Amaranth with no explanation the night of Augustus' departure from Amaranth's group and immediately grows attached. Despite Amaranth's attempts to find someone who would take care of her, Lycoris refuses to leave Amaranth's side, affectionately referring to her as "Ammy," to the point where Amaranth decides to raise Lycoris herself, becoming a "mom" for her. According to Amaranth, she plans to request that her father adopt Lycoris and make her a princess of Astellia upon Amaranth's return home.

During the battle against the Plague Dragon, Amaranth goes into shock upon witnessing the beast's arrival, which prompts Calystegia's personality to surface within her, triggering a transformation within Lycoris as well. She speaks in a more mature tone, with her language and word choice indicating that she is in fact Merodii, the Sky Mother. Using divine song magic, she temporarily freezes Calystegia in place, but she is forced to drop the hold due to her physical body—Lycoris—being unable to handle anything remotely close to the power required to sustain the spell. When Calystegia is driven out of Amaranth's body and subsequently erased, Merodii's memories return to their dormancy, and Lycoris returns to normal.
Asiatique

**Le bestiaire asiatique est très grand et varié. Particulièrement grâce à sa culture et à ses yokai -que l’on retrouve beaucoup plus au Japon que dans d’autres pays.**

## Japon

Au Japon, le mot yokai est un terme générique où sont regroupés les sortes d’esprits, les monstres, les êtres surnaturels, des métamorphes [...] certains même viennent du folklore européen (comme le Bugbear). Souvent, les yokai sont espiègles ou machiavéliques ; Ils aiment embêter les humains. Cependant, certains portent chance aux humains qu’ils rencontrent. Ils sont tellement nombreux, avec tant de formes et de particularités différentes qu’il est difficile de les définir un ensemble et ainsi les classer.

## Chine

En Chine les esprits et monstres surnaturels sont appelé yāoguài.  Ce terme est l’équivalent en français de “démon” ; cela désigne dans la culture chinoise des démons nés de la transformation de plantes ou d'animaux et qui ont acquis leurs pouvoirs maléfiques en pratiquant le taoïsme, ce terme peut également désigner des phénomènes étranges. Cependant le fait que cette appellation ait des connotations “mauvaises” pour un lecteur européen, ces démons ne sont pas tous démoniaques : Les mauvais sont désignés habituellement par le nom guài ou mó, qui tous deux signifient  démon.

Mais, contrairement au Japon, le yāoguài  n’est pas un terme générique pour regrouper tout le folklore chinois. Certaines créatures, comme les dragons, ne rentrent pas dans cette catégorie.  Tout dépend de l’origine historique de l’esprit surnaturel, du mythe… Ceci peut s’expliquer par la création de la mythologie de la Chine. Cette dernière  s’est formée au cours des siècles par la rencontre d’éléments d’origine diverse : on y trouve pêle‑mêle, à côté des anciennes divinités indigènes, certaines grandes figures d’origine bouddhique, qui y jouent parfois, d’ailleurs, un rôle inattendu, des héros historiques divinisés à une époque plus récente, des personnages taoïstes, on y retrouve également des créatures, les yāoguài  ect.

## Corée du Sud

À la différence du Japon ou de la Chine, la culture des esprits en Corée est beaucoup moins présente, à l’exception d’une ou deux créatures. Ces créatures cependant ressemblent elles, beaucoup au yokai japonais : un esprit effrayant ayant l’apparence d’un gobelin, un animal devenu femme. Ces similitudes ne sont pas anodines : il n’est pas rare que des mythes, des croyances, s’implantent dans plusieurs pays voisins et parfois même des continents.
Wiki BestiaireLS

## Bienvenue sur notre wiki

Ce wiki a été créé suite à un projet de Littérature et Société, répondant au thème "Image et langage". Nous nous sommes concentrées sur le thème du Bestiaire tout autour du monde ; prenant trois continents cas par cas et en analysant leurs mythes et créatures les plus célèbres tout en gardant un point de vue littéraire et historique.

## Introduction au bestiaire

Un bestiaire, en littérature, est un manuscrit regroupant des fables, des moralités, des poèmes, des illustrations […]. Mais aussi, par extension, un bestiaire désigne une œuvre consacrée aux bêtes, des animaux réels ou même fantastiques. Un bestiaire peut avoir des formes différentes selon les époques, les idées que les auteurs veulent transmettre ou encore la fonction qu’ils leur donnent. Cela peut être des textes par moment décorés de miniatures et d'enluminures, des poèmes, des sculptures, des photographies, des illustrations seules sans aucune lettre autour ou de longs écrits sans image. Toutes les formes sont permises. Le bestiaire est souvent un ouvrage complet qui représente la vision et les croyances de ses auteurs et par extension, leur époque. Par exemple, dans les bestiaires du Moyen-Âge, en Europe, les bêtes sont souvent mises en relation avec Dieu et le Christ.

Le bestiaire est souvent considéré comme un manuscrit datant exclusivement du Moyen-Âge. Cependant, il en existe dans toutes les époques et dans toutes les sociétés que le monde ait connu, que ce soit lors de l’Antiquité ou au XVIIIe siècle ou alors que ce soit en Europe ou en Asie. Des milliers de sortes de bestiaires existent depuis le début de l’Histoire de l’Homme. Pourtant, la plupart parlent d’animaux réels, d’animaux fantastiques et même parfois d’esprits (dans des cultures asiatiques). *Pourquoi ?* Il faut se remettre dans la tête et à l’époque des auteurs pour pouvoir mieux comprendre cette idée. Avant, animaux réels et animaux fantastiques existent tous deux. Entre autre, il n’y a pas de distinction entre un coq et un basilic dans la tête d’un homme du Moyen-Âge.

Mais alors… *d’où viennent ces animaux irréels ? Sont-ils unique à chaque culture ? Ou alors trouve-t-on des points communs d’un pays à un autre, voire d’une continent à un autre ? Comment se sont-ils ancrés dans le quotidien des hommes, même encore de nos jours ?*

Nous allons essayer de répondre à ces nombreuses questions en nous baladant sur ce wikia.
Européen

La mythologie européenne est sans doute l’une des plus variées notamment car elle possède  la mythologie grecque, romaine et nordique. Elle a également un grand nombre de créatures en commun avec d’autre cultures dans le monde entier.

Ici nous n'approfondiront pas le bestiaire européen mais plutôt compareront ces créatures a deux autres cultures et bestiaires.
Old Astellia

**Old Astellia** is the name given to a geological phenomenon that occurred when Astellia, at the time still part of Albion, ripped itself from the planet and ascended into the sky.

## History

Until six thousand years ago, Astellia was part of the surface of Albion. However, when the king of the time, succumbing to fear and paranoia, called on the power of Merodii and Makari to rip the continent from the surface, it caused a series of cataclysmic events that came to be known as the Bronze Age Collapse.

As the Astellian landmass lifted itself from the planet's surface, it tore up the crust around it to an extreme degree, permanently altering the land in its wake. Around the rim of its former location, mountain ranges and crags were wrenched from the seafloor, and the ocean, flooding into the space left behind, created an enormous inland sea. Small towns on Astellia's extreme edges, left behind in the Departure, learned to make do with what they had, eventually rebuilding (for lack of a better term) and forming a number of small, independent city-states on the ring of land that came to be known as Old Astellia.

## Culture

Old Astellia's culture and entire aesthetic is reminiscent of the American 1950s. Their level of technology is largely equivalent, but they possess firearms from what would be the early 20th century.

In order to keep themselves going, the citizens of Old Astellia prayed to Calystegia, the first queen of Astellia, for deliverance. They believe that, someday, Calystegia will come back to bring them all home.

## Caractéristiques

Le crorousseux, se balançant sur sa branche, montre une agilité propre à un singe mais également doté d'une lenteur pouvant s'apparentée à un paresseux. Le crorousseux a également une particularité très peu vue dans le monde animal. Elle peut s'observer au niveau du haut de l'animal : une gueule de crocodile est présente.

## La légende

La légende raconte qu'il possède soixante-six dents, tout comme un crocodile habituelle, cependant cet animal est herbivore, ce qui en fait une curiosité pour les scientifiques et créé une grande controverse sur l'utilité de ses outils si tranchants.
Nonus

Nonus, dressed in his slave clothing.

**Nonus** is the one house slave belonging to Augustus Hadrian Invictus. He is a kind and just man, but one with low self-esteem, being the ninth generation of his family to be in slavery. He is appreciative of Augustus' kindness and has a small crush on Augustus' subordinate and best friend, Alystra.

Afrique

***Chaque créature n’est pas unique à une seule civilisation ; il n’est pas rare de voir des légendes similaires dans des pays voisins cependant ce phénomène peut aussi être observé d’un continent à un autre. Ici, nous verrons les similitudes entre créatures et légendes africaines mais également  européennes.***

## Similitudes entre les pays africains

### Mami Wata, la mère des eaux

De Mother Water, son nom à évolué en Mommy Water, puis en Mami Wata. Elle est présente quasiment partout en Afrique. Mami Wata est un esprit de l'eau craint par les pêcheurs car la légende raconte qu’elle dévore les hommes qui lui causent du tort et qu’elle erre dans la nuit africaine sous les traits d’une revenante au teint pâle, aux longs cheveux noirs et yeux “fascinants”, mais d’autres versions la décrivent comme une femme très séduisante. Elle vit dans les océans, les lacs et autres cours d’eaux et les humains lui font souvent des offrandes car elle les remercie en leur offrant la gloire et la richesse. Elle apparaît également dans les visions des hommes et ceux qui sont victimes de ces visions sont aussitôt atteints d’une maladie incurable. Sa légende est connue dans tout le continent et les pêcheurs de chaque pays la craignent.

## Similitudes entre les pays africains et européens

### Le vampire

Dans la légende, il et dit que le vampire européen est une créature à l'apparence humaine qui possède des crocs qu'il utilise pour mordre ses victimes dans le cou et leur sucer le sang. Nous pouvons rapprocher cette légend à celle de l'Asambosam

en Afrique de l’Ouest, principalement du Ghana. Il a des crochets à la place des pieds qui lui permettent de se balancer aux arbres et d'attraper facilement les proies qui passent près de lui. Ses dents sont en fer et très pointues, de sorte qu’il peut sucer le sang des malheureux qu’il parvient à saisir.

Il existe une créature très proche de l'Asanbosam que l'on nomme le Sasanbonsam. Ses caractéristiques sont pratiquement les mêmes que celles de l'Asanbosam, sauf qu'il possède l'apparence d'un hybride chauve-souris-humain. Il a de larges ailes et une tête rappelant beaucoup celle de la chauve souris.

### Le dragon et le Kongamato

Le Kongamato ou “casse-bâteau” a vécu au Nord-Ouest de la Zambie. Il s’agit d’un animal volant, très ressemblant à un ptérosaure, qui attaquait les bâteaux dans l’Océan Indien Il st décrit comme possédant un long bec et une grande rangée de dents et une peau foncée semblable à du cuir. La peau de kongamato est rouge selon certains témoins, mais d'autres affirment qu'elle serait noire. La créature aurait également une longue queue et mesure d’un mètre vingt à deux mètres dix.
