Axeor The Calamitous

The true form of the Titan, Axeor the Calamitous

Axeor is a main antagonist in the story arc of 8th Axis.

It is unknown when he was first introduced, though it was no later than February 2nd, 2022, when it was formally acknowledged in the 8th Axis discord announcements channel that the weapon obtained from Axeor had issues when used in PvP.

He can be found underneath the Rodenberg Company Dig Site, in the Vault which he has been locked away in for no less than two thousand years.

## Origin

Not much is known of Axeor's origin, though we can speculate. It is known for a fact that he is, at the very least, two hundred years old, because he states that he was locked in the Vault for centuries. The plural form of the word century means that he resided in the Vault for two, bare minimum. We also know that he has a deep connection with the Founder Ymir, as she instantly repairs his body at multiple different points in the battle against him. It is also very likely that Axeor is a member of the Old Eldian Empire because it is also a known fact that he was bound by an Eldian King prior to the 145th, the infamous pacifist Karl Fritz. This is because the King at the time took direct action against Axeor, binding him to the Vault and preventing him from escaping. That same Vault is where he resides to this day.

## History

While it's impossible to know for sure, Axeor is very likely a Titan shifter. According to Ghira, Axeor had rebelled and fought against the Eldian King at the time in the name of Ymir, and the King was forced to use every bit of his power to even contain Axeor. The Founder's power over the Subjects of Ymir is absolute, so while it may be possible that the King was after the time of Karl Fritz and as such had the vow renouncing conflict holding him back, it is unlikely that he would have been able to get involved at all were this the case. More likely is that the King was either inexperienced with the power of the Founder like Frieda Reiss was or Axeor was extremely powerful, the latter of which is alluded to much more in the quest revolving around him. Also, Axeor appears to be slightly unhinged, hell bent on destroying every single person who was not a follower of Ymir. It is possible that Axeor has multiple Titan forms that are pulling his mind apart the same way that the Attack, Founder and Warhammer affect Eren. If this is the case, Axeor likely has six, as there are six eyes and at least six tentacles on his true form. Also, having a form like the Attack Titan would likely provide him with an extra buffer against the will of the King, and for Axeor to have such animalistic features like tentacles to begin with, he likely also holds the Beast. It should also be noted that the mask on the face of his human form is remarkably similar to the masks of Marcel and Porco's Jaw Titans and the face of the Founder Ymir's Titan. Wherever Axeor drew his power from, he was so strong that the Eldian King was forced to contain him. It should be noted that the fact that the Eldian King contained him underneath the ground means that he can't have the Warhammer Titan or he'd have burrowed his way back out.

## Appearance

### Titan Form

Very little can be seen of Axeor's Titan form, which sits beyond a barrier overlooking his human form's prison and presumably keeps him from reclaiming his Titan's power. It has six eyes, potentially representative of each Titan which Axeor holds, and a number of tentacles ranging from six to ten which burrow in and out of the walls and floor. Each are black and red in color.

### Human Form

Axeor's human form is the form which someone must battle with and defeat in the Axeor boss fight. He appears to be wearing hardened leather armor leggings and boots with a chest plate possibly made of chainmail, appropriate fittings for a warrior of the Old Eldian Empire. He also has a long, red cape. His face greatly resembles a human skull, though it is unknown if this is an affect of his Titan form (possibly the Jaw) or if he has simply donned a skull mask to mirror the Titan form of the Founder Ymir.

## Trivia

* Axeor's skin was broken for a long period of time, however he appeared as a pink-haired anime girl with a white hoodie in this time rather than a Steve or Alex skin.
* There are four beams of light touching Axeor that are connected to pillars in the boss room. These are likely his bindings, and probably represent his Titan form, his sword, the key to unlock the Vault, and either his human form or the Eldian King's will.
