Sapphire

## SapphireThe Harsh Winter's Avatar

**Sapphire** (*サファイア | Safaia*) is a character from The Overworld.

**Character Art: [Default / Dragon Form]**

## Starcluster Datapac

Sapphire was created from a shard of a passing comet that Mama Ophelia managed to grab from the air one fateful day. Raised amongst other dragons, Sapphire was always reserved and preferred to be staring into space than talking to others. Her power over the cold manifested as she got older, turning from just chilly winds to massive blizzards, and due to prolonged exposure in her own frost, she became blind.

She went into hiding after Lunoz ravaged the Overworld, and when Cybern finds her, she wonders if he is strong enough to be respected as a true Dragon. She saw the half-dragon hero as nothing more than a weak amateur who could not hope to save the worlds. Enraged by her words, Cybern dueled her as she witnessed the passion from his fiery fury. During that moment, she finally understood what drives Cybern.

Sapphire only ever shows her face to travellers during the winter, bringing with her cold weather and harsh snowstorms; it is only ever recommended to approach her if you can survive her glacial judgement. Only the strongest can earn her respect.

## Background

### Early life

Sapphire was born from a shard of a comet Mama Ophelia caught out of the sky. With her wind of life, Sapphire was given the form she took. Raised as a dragon, she manifested the power of ice.

### *Cybern Quest II*

She can be fought by finding the patches of winter that have her footprints in them; following the trail will lead Cybern to her. Due to his affinity over fire, he will not be harmed by her frost field. She and him have an exchange over what makes a hero, and how she is not so quick to see those qualities in him. Enraged by this, Cybern wishes to let his actions talk for him.

Upon her defeat, she admires Cybern's passion and devotion, choosing to head back to her realm to rest, but leaving her blessing.

### *AnthonyM and the Multiverse: Crossing Rifts*

Sapphire returns from her rest, causing a winter around the highest mountain. She sends a challenge to the bulletin board in Cibna Village, claiming that the cause cannot find her trail. If they do, she will fight the team of four that approaches her. Upon defeat, she learns that heroes can come from all dimensions and in many forms.

She agrees to come to the Starcluster party as a recruit, and can be refought again at any time.

## Personality

Sapphire is reserved and a bit blunt, but her cold exterior hides a warm heart. She cares for the world's safety, and while she cannot see it, she knows the world is in danger of something often. She devotes her time to testing if would-be heroes can survive the might of nature's harsh winter.

When she warms up to someone, she is much more relaxed and tends to still be cold. She chooses to put her trust only in those who can best her in battle or other dragons.

## Relationships

### Cybern

Sapphire sees Cybern as a strong fighter with the determination to save the world. Surely his fire could be the light that leads her out of the darkness, or maybe she is too blind to see his devotion is for his own sake. She does not know the reason she trusts Cybern as much as she does.

### Mama Ophelia

Sapphire loves Mama Ophelia, as her mother is one of the only people she willingly is open with. The two will enjoy their time when Sapphire visits, but she fears her mother would judge her for the recluse she has become.

### Etimu

Sapphire admires the work of Etimu, but feels remorse that she cannot see it as intended. She hopes Etimu thinks of her fondly.

### Lunoz

Sapphire mourned the loss of Lunoz to the Black Matter, but could not bring herself to defeat him. She wondered if he would be freed from the grasp of evil, and when Cybern finally freed his soul, she felt happy to sense the old Lunoz once more.
