Jilelen

* CA:Y
* CA:JxL

**Jilelen** *(ジレレン, jireren)* first appeared in Core Awaken ~Yuka~ as an enemy boss and eventually a playable character. She later becomes one of the two titular protagonists in Core Awaken ~Jilelen and LittleSnow~.

## Appearance

Jilelen's robot body has pink hair with black ribbons and yellow eyes. Her basic E-Coat was a vest-top school uniform with a twin star vest *(making it an odd combination of vest over another vest)*, a similarly-themed hairpin and striped leggings.

Before setting off for the Crimson Dungeon, she was given an E-Coat of a classic detective costume with a twin star motif on the hat by Rurumu.

As Jilelen's CPU is still in the smartphone, she is never seen without it.

## Personality & Character

Jilelen exhibits unusually strong personality traits that make her seem almost human; particularly arrogance, ambition and tenacity. She also derives enjoyment from openly playing a villain-type role.

However, she is not inherently evil. Her desire to take control of everything is just part of her functional specifications as well as a typical effect of the Core Awakening phenomenon, both resulting from man-made information overtechnology.

## Skills & Abilities

During the Core Rebellion Incident, Jilelen employed a handful of appliance-based attack and support devices which made her a force to be reckoned with. Her primary armament aside from that is her phone unit's camera flash, which was obviously not very powerful. Jilelen also holds the distinction of being the only android that can handle 2 Backup Weapons simultaneously.

She later stops using these during the Crimson Dungeon exploration. Having gotten used to controlling her body by that time, Jilelen now attacks with a kick and can push some heavy objects as well as doors.

For some reason, Jilelen is able to input, store and access Elemental Magic as standalone applications, which she can initiate with a command prompt. Due to it's potency, magic cannot be kept active for too long as it puts a significant strain on her RAM, gradually corrupting her. To this end, it becomes necessary to *"shut down"* the magic program as a precautionary measure.

Another aspect that makes Jilelen seem human is her significant lack of precision processing power, which makes her come off as *"stupid"* to some. This is shown when she did not factor in that the humans in the hijacked train will go hungry and die if they are not given food for the duration of the *"hypnosis week"*, losing 9 chess matches in a row against Jing Ling, and consistently forgetting the spell verses when using elemental magic via the Ultimate Track, needlessly consuming battery power to access the lines from her memory bank.

After being subject to DNA fusion experiments by Rimu, she gains a variety of Trance abilities that can be activated for a limited amount of time: When in cat form, her processor, vision and bodily reflexes get boosted. As a dog, she can practically walk on water by utilizing a dog paddle swimming stroke. She will also receive *"Angel"* genes which helps her cast Ultimate Track spells faster.

In one scenario, she utilizes her magic powers to control a hastily-built giant robot which she named Kaden-Oh Mk-II.

## History

Three years ago, the 11th incarnation of the long-running JilPhone series appeared in the consumer electronics market and boasted a revolutionary new feature: being the first and only smartphone with a robotic core installed. The main selling point during the JilPhone 11's release was that it served as *"a secretary in the palm of your hand"*. Unfortunately, the production cost was unusually high, resulting in a steep retail price. Worse, the advertised advanced functions had little to no practical use in everyday life compared to orthodox and more affordable smartphones. Needless to say, the JilPhone 11 model did not sell very well.

One particular JilPhone 11 unit from a mobile device shop in Norlulu Village became part of the Core Rebellion Incident after awakening and expressed a strong desire to control everything. Sensing the core's will, a cyber-enigma called Finn modified a decommissioned Underground Idol robot for the smartphone to use as a functional body. Though the physical core was transferred to the robot, the main CPU remained inside the mobile unit. It later took on the name *"Jilelen"* and started a personal campaign for world domination.

However, Jilelen had a really hard time making her new body walk properly at first and fell over a lot. Her now-outdated core technology constantly erred whenever she attempted to remotely manipulate latter-gen appliances, which put a damper in her plans. Though initially adamant on going it alone, Jilelen soon found herself cooperating with Finn, given numerous upgrades and advanced devices to brainwash people. Jilelen led a faction of rebel robots and successfully hijacked an express train where she installed the provided equipment. Unfortunately, it would take a week before the passengers were completely under her control. She was subdued by Yuka before that came to pass, eventually joining forces with the latter to defeat Finn.

After the conflict, Jilelen returned to Norlulu and started a new life with Rurumu, a domestic assistance robot who was also part of the uprising. However, she has not completely given up on her conquest ambitions. Before departing from Dr. Wellie's lab, she heard about the ancient magic sealed away in the Crimson Dungeon and believes that if she solves the mystery of the ruins, then those powers *(and the world)* will be hers for the taking.

## Notes & Trivia

* Jilelen's awakening symbol is *"Material Desire" (due to wanting to control things and claim the world)*.
* Jilelen refers to her battery level as *"MP"*. If the player tries to cast a spell with insufficient power, Jilelen will vocally exclaim in Japanese that she *"...doesn't have enough MP"*.
