*Now... Where were we?*

*Your name is Corona Andromede, and you're gonna make goddamn bank today.*

*Several hours ago, that little punk made the mistake of betting 20 fucking bucks against you. Yes, that's right, **TWENTY** fucking BUCKS. That's as many as TWO tens!!*

*As it stands, the other not-so-little punk is just useless dead weight on you, so it's a good thing that he's leaving. God, it must be so sad to live life as a wingless being!*

*You take a moment to appreciate how you basically effortlessly overshadow everyone else here just by existing. Life is good.*

*Now, back to your objective.*

**Corona Andromede** is a Winged who serves as the Head of the Royal Guard and right hand of Prince Suvillan IV. She is implied to have some influence over the Monster World's military and was instrumental to the War of the Barrier's Breach.

Her given title is the **Angel of Severance**.

## Appearance

Corona has tan skin, bright orange half-lidded eyes, short brown hair, black bat wings, as well as a bent and twisted dark grey halo. Her birthmark is located across her torso.

She initially wears a brown sleeveless coat with white accents and a rhombus-shaped backhole over a sleeveless green turtleneck, a green sash around the waist, black shorts, gray leggings, black boots, as well as a pair of manacles with 16 chain links each. The latter of these has since been reduced to two chainlinks following {S} Decimate.

From Chapter 3 onward, in place of her coat Corona wears a white button-up shirt with a spade-shaped backhole, two long shirttails in the back, and a bright green interior side, as well as a black belt with a small chain attached. The chains on her manacles have also been removed.

At the time of her birth, Corona wore a sleeveless teal shirt with yellow accents, black shorts, and brown toeless leggings. As a preteen, she wore a dark teal thin-strapped dress over black toeless leggings.

## History

### **Early Life**

In the year 4504, a winged by the name of Andromeda descended from the stars and was found by a pair of collapsers in the Nursing Fields. As her existence was one of the unplanned, under normal circumstances this would have been the end of her life. However, using her strength she was able to fend off and escape the two collapsers, thus securing her right to live.

Years later, Andromeda was tasked by another group of Winged to steal the Caduceus of Princess Cleu, but was captured in the attempt and sentenced to brutal public execution. However, she was able to sever her chains using her latent powers, and escaped to the Midworld not long before the creation of the Barrier.

Here, she came upon a young Suvillan IV in the aftermath of the Human-Monster War, who she accosted for a wish to augment her divinity. Suvillan then wished for the angel to rule alongside him, securing her support in his ascent to the throne. He then christened her with the name Corona, and granted her title as the Angel of Severance.

### **The Restoration**

Following Prince Suvillan IV's ascent to the throne, he launched a large-scale restoration effort in order to quickly allow the monster world to get back on its feet. During this time, Corona rose to become the Prince's right hand, being granted the title of Commander and serving as the leader of the monster royal guard, whose duties included the capture of humans during the Human Extermination Period.

It is also around this time that Corona first met Solis Ardor and Kotori, with the three of them eventually growing to be close friends as servants under the Prince.

### **Barrier's Breach**

In the year 4526, Corona, at the behest of Prince Suvillan IV, used her abilities as Angel of Severance to breach the Barrier. The two then led a brief but bloody invasion of the human world, with an army of spirits at their backs. After intense fighting, the two eventually came face to face with Prince Ruit and his second-in-command, Captain Lune.

Despite everything, however, the humans' might was too much. Their original goal of assassinating the human Prince could not be achieved, and in the end the monsters were forced to retreat. But the damage to the opposing kingdom had already been done. With many settlements razed to the ground and a great number of lives lost, the Human Kingdom had been dealt a mighty blow; one that they were still attempting to recover from three years later.

## Personality

Corona is a carefree and reckless person, who often shows no care for others' boundaries. She likes to enjoy whatever activity she does, and dislikes having no one to hang out with. As stated by Night's curiouscat page, she seems to have a softer side, and is implied to have been a quieter person when she was younger. She doesn't enjoy remembering her youth and likely won't reattach her chains for that reason.

## Etymology

* Corona is the Latin word for crown.
* Like all winged, Corona takes her surname from the constellation she was born from, in this case Andromeda, the chained woman.

## Observations

* From the time of her birth to her preteen years, Corona's halo was teal rather than black. This implies that the star Alpha Andromedae collapsed into a black hole sometime during her late teens to early adulthood.
* Corona's chains serve as an important reminder to her of something important.
* Corona seems to have an ability related to creating fissures in the earth, though that may be a result of her title of the angel of severance, separating Nino and Aria.
* Despite being the head of the royal guard, Corona doesn't know how the execution cenote works, not even the ritual, and only knowing that she gained the knowledge of its importance by seeing Suvillan's reaction to her killing a random(?) human in the past, marking one of the few times he was enraged. The knowledge seems to be exclusive to monsters, for an unknown reason and purpose.
